Lol cock boss

I get your essential point but saying things like:

I like some diversity in my games. Been playing a white guy for 20 years now.

something more interesting than another mid aged white guy looking for his white family story in the wild west part 2.

is inevitably going to send your thread, in part, in a certain direction.

 

[Cake Boss]

Lol excuse my ignorance, but I didn't think the mentioning of white people would cause such a stir, I didn't think white people needed to be defended so much these days.

My apologies. I am just so used to this bubble.

 

[Quick]

you CAN have a minority character, but not including one doesn't make your game any less good, or racist, or sexist. I think that's what some of them are trying to say, because there's a lot of "diversity for diversity sake" arguments on the gaming side

that being said i'd play the SHIT out of a Red Dead Django. That would be a dope ass setup

Pretty shit way of explaining themselves, but I think more diversity is needed in gaming as well.

Just saying. Your love for hyperbole (which you just did again!) is obviously going to invite debate. If you can't take the heat stay out of the anonymous man-child forum.

 

[Cake Boss]

Thank you father soc, I learned my lesson.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Gaming side is different to be sure. In a thread about Pokedates, some people defended thirsty creeps hitting on a woman playing Pokemon Go.

so yall saying Matthews will be a 10 million per year player who's never scored a point per game in a full season before? I can dig it.

It comes with 3 Cups and 2 Olympic gold medals.

Not a problem. I saw my child in need

Yooo someone take me our of that thread, I can't stop looking at it. It legit got hijacked 😢

Further proving my point that people on Gaming side need to get out of their little bubble.

wait what? What's wrong with pointing out a mutual interest as a conversation starter? Are men not allowed to just talk up women in public anymore?

So I'm in small town Ohio again, but Dayton is only 15 minutes away.
Any of you Ohio gaffers know where all the trashy tattooed women hang out? Aside from the strip club.

you can't MAKE expired guac, silly cat

if you use expired ingredients to make a meal, does the meal count as expired?

fruits can't "expire"... they're either raw, ripe, or overripe / rotten

and food can't "expire" it can just get moldy/stale/useanyothersynonym

what's your point here

I'm beginning to understand your obsession with numbers

i don't understand why you're trying to pick apart whether fruits can expire or not

something expires when its past its assigned expiration date. by definition.

edit: the whole point of expiration dates is to prevent you from eating something BEFORE it spoils. Being expired and being spoiled are not remotely the same thing.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I don't know if you read the thread, but the "mutual interest" became persistence, offering a number despite receiving no interest, and unsolicited offers to "go somewhere to catch strong Pokemon".

I'm loathe to say "aww they're just socially awkward nerds" because it shouldn't be an excuse for being creepy and making women uncomfortable.

the worst thing about this heat wave might be how late into the day it's extending...

usually when it's hot in the day, it cools off in the evening, but it's like 33C right now at 8pm! the mid-day high was 35C or something.

White Castle sucks.

"It's too hot to argue semantics"

 

[iLLmAtlc]

Holy shit thank goodness we don't got that heat here

Also do you guys ever deal with neck pain? Mine hasn't healed for like 2 weeks almost.

I don't recall any specific injury either.

Toronto is terrible for summer heat. Damn lakes.

Ugh I had a really annoying neck/back injury a month or so ago. Don't even know what caused it but it was bugging me for at least 2 weeks I'd say.

Sounds like me right now lol. Did you just wait it out?

I don't even have a family doctor =

Pretty much. Tylenol and occasionally Robaxacet helped. :\

 

[MultiJhonny]

My mom fainted a couple hours ago from the heat down here. She is doing fine now but it was scary for a little bit

It does, as long as they're not shoehorned into stuff I agree 100%

They were some insane thunderstorms while I was driving back from Michagan yesterday, plus the mugginess.

Can't wait to escape this humidity.

Slowly building a PC and haven't gotten a graphics card yet. Someone posted this deal on a GIGABYTE GTX 770 2GB WINDFORCE GV-N77OC for $150. Good value? I know it's GTX 770 isn't top of the line, but would it be able to run AAA games well provided the CPU etc was up to snuff?

I know so little about this shit. Still learning the basics

 

[Cake Boss]

Father soc, you seem like you bring in some dough, just get a 480, more future proof. Get one for me while you are at it. For your lovely child.

Papa 😘

 

[imBask]

someone please buy a 480 and tell me how it is and if it burned down your house

 

[Smiley90]

I should've let Soc hit me with the car, he seems like he's got good insurance.



On a more serious note: I'm planning to go somewhere out east for Thanksgiving weekend, I've been to Montreal (would go again tho) and Toronto (would not go again, maybe if I just go to Niagara) already. Where should I go next? Quebec City or Ottawa seem the most obvious touristy-destinations, what else is there?

Only criterium: has to have an airport more or less nearby.

If you're saying that because I've got cable now, we saved for years. And it's the basic package. Did I have to get all 5 TSN channels? Maybe not. But sometimes a man needs a little opulence in his life.

Looking at the 480 now. Reasonably priced. How does it compare to the new 1070? And what the fuck is the difference between Gigabyte, AMD, Asus, etc? Where can I read about this shit without having to glean it from a thousand reviews?

 

[TUSR]

480 comparable to the 1060

1070 is much better than the two

AMD and nVidia are the two big players and make their own cards

additional companies make reference cards which adhere to the original design by the manufacturer.

 

[Socreges]

Doesn't match great for the price or compared to the 770 according to this site....what am I missing?

Tonight's the last night so I'm partying it up in Dayton.

1060

you can get a EVGA one for under 400CAD, though the clock speed seems a bit lower.

ask the hardware thread guys before purchasing. they know a hell of a lot more than i do.
