Scalped the comic written by Aaron? If it's that the show better bbe on premium cable. Way to much violence, sex, and drug use for anywhere else

Clearly Trion decided to cheap out on servers. When I can download and play another F2P MMO in the time it takes me to wait in line after choosing a server, you have fucked up.

Wait what is this "go out" you speak of? I thought the whole purpose of escorts were to do your business and then tell them "go away".

Love that PR about no grinding.

Did tons of strikes. Didn't get anything better than what I went in with. Not a damn thing.

lol.
Click to expand...

Did a few strikes, got a few blues, but shooting at the cave got around 6-7 within 30 mins.

Wonder what I'll do next time.
Even though it's boring.

Finally got to watching the LoK season finale. Man that was some good shit, I know you guys were talking about how good it was but I didn't expect to enjoy it that much. I'm actually excited for the next season, it's coming pretty damn soon too.

Blues ain't shit. Wear a faction's clothing, do bounties (ignore the ones you find especially tedious/notfun. for me that's kill 2 enemies with a fusion rifle 20 times), do weekly/daily strikes, farm material in patrol while doing missions and play PvP for fun/bounties.


I'm almost rank 3 with New Monarchy. Purchased legendary chest armor and guantlets, traded strange coin to the exotic merchant for better chest armor. After some PvP today or tomorrow I should be able to buy a legendary AR.

Farming engram's: n destiny is just too damn boring. You usually end up with shit or items you don't really want.


Honestly, I can't trust any outlet who has reviewed Destiny without having all legendaary equipment except for the 2 exotic slots. At the same time you HAVE to review the biggest game of the year in a timely manner, it just seems to be at the expense of some integrity.

I haven't watched any of her shows past the first season of Gray's Anatomy so I could be wrong on the relationship dynamics in these shows.

In GA, the Bailey character (black woman) is with a black guy. The Richard (the chief of surgery) was also with black women, though he cheated in his first wife with the white main's mother, who had a sorry ass daddy.

(Look, I really love my wife and pretends she doesn't know how to operate the DVR, so don't give me some shit.)

On that topic I guess Shonda's writing embellishes aspects of day time soap operas but give it a prime time coat of paint, for better or for worse. So things get very melodramatic and very over the top at times but I think that's entirely the point (it has to be.)
Click to expand...
Well, yeah, that's true, but it's true of a lot of shows. GA hit right when Desperate Housewives and other soapy dramas hit. Most of the daytime soaps have left the market, but it's not like the demand completely went away for that. Not everyone's gonna learn Spanish to go watch some telenovelas on Univision to get their fix.

May I see some examples? I don't read all the race threads on GAF but from the ones that I do, I'd never been under the impression that this sentiment was felt in those threads.
Click to expand...

I rarely if ever see that exact sentiment is expressed in race threads here but I have seen quite a few people tone police and tell you what you should do with your perceived anger. It's condescending and it's generally coming from the same place as the image.

Okay, now I see what that means. When I tried to look up at the artist for the image, it appeared to be circulated around conservative Reddit boards and Twitter (#notyourshield tag for instance).

Yes and no. I found a pretty decent AR, and was able to level my Crypto, but it's still a lot of grinding. I'm having fun, but the real problem is playing and packing at the same time.

You got just as good a chance for Legendary/exotic having fun in PvP or doing bounty/weekly strikes. If you're still getting hype over rare drops...you'll realize what a waste it is once you can buy legendary weapons

Waaait.

You mean there will be an actual TV show with more Native American/First Nation actors than white people?

Boy did that book drop more N bombs than Quentin Tarentino. But it was all said by Natives. I was all larrydavid.gif about that.

I'm still grinding for those too--need a couple more strange coins for the one I want.

The current cycle is event, bounties, strikes, maybe Crucible. Just no luck yet, but it's all a grind.
