Morning Discussion
by Chris Faylor, Nov 28, 2008 8:54am PSTAnd a very happy day after Thanksgiving to you all. If you find yourself brave enough to bear the crowds of Black Friday, you have both my blessings and my sympathy.
In case you aren't aware, I think it's very safe to say that Cartoon Network has won Rick Roll. Think the NBC anchor actually knows what the "Rick Rolling phenom" is?

I will also probably try out the new Sacred 2 patch which will hopefully let me play the game (3 other Shackers are playing online right now - join our steam group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/sacredshack , post your ID for invite) or http://update.sacred2.com/dl_us.html for patch.
And maybe top it off with some L4D, Quake Live, or Starcraft . Good times. What's your game of choice tonight?

OK so today is day 2 of wearing my contacts. I got them on Sat and wore them and took them out Sat night and then didnt wear them until today. First of all, it is strange b/c the text on the screen seems so much more clear, but everything else seems blurry. I think that maybe my eyes are a bit dry? So this leaves me to my two questions for today.
1. Can I use any eye drops during the day and is my eyes drying out normal?
2. What is the best way to put contacts in?
It seems that I have more problems with my left eye and they get caught in my eye lashes. The contacts seem to stick to my fingers more than they want to stick in my eye. I am drying my finger off, putting the contact on that finger and then putting 2 drops of saline in the contact and then putting it in my eye. Is this the right way to do it? Any suggestions will be very helpful!

I saw an ad on the front page for this site and it says something like "It's what's next...for guys" so I haha'd and clicked on it. http://giantrealm.gameriot.com/
It is some kind of index of crap from around the web targeted at the group of men who read maxim but do not get laid ever. So that is when I scrolled down and clicked on their "corporate site" ( http://corp.giantrealm.com/) and saw the "Giant Realm Audience Profile" with the toby macguire and seth green pics and I lol'd.
Wondering who would actually attempt to make things like this and try and make real advertising dollars from it, I checked out their management team ( http://corp.giantrealm.com/management/ ) and scrolled down to see Brad, which is where I ended up with LOL.
So Giant Realm People: I don't know if any of you hang out here but you guys have to stop being so gay. You don't put stuff like "He acts as our in-house expert on all things 'cool' and informs us when we're acting too old and lame." with any seriousness.

I am curious about a few things if you don't mind sharing.
1. When did you notice the change?
2. What are some of the symptoms?
3. What does medication do to help them lead regular lives?
Thanks in advance, serious questions for helpful answers...

Then I emptied my entire shotgun into his back; followed by a clip of bullets from my pistol. At which point I saw him call a vote to kick me, and I left the game. Somebody comfort me and tell me I am not a bad person.

I'm playing an evil female character who only uses unarmed and grenades. It's very satisfying so far. It's tough though, and I'm only level 4 at the moment. So I was exploring the wastes around tenpenny tower with dogmeat, and I ran into a death claw. Even after using the 4 grenades I had in my inventory, the death claw was going to rip me to shreds. Thankfully, yet sadly, dogmeat took one for the team. My trusty companion took one for the team while I beat down the deathclaw. I manage to kill the fucking dinosaur, but not until after he ripped off dogmeat's head and front paws. It was brutal. =( Then I snacked on dogmeat's remains and went to go make myself a pair of death claw gauntlets. I think my canine friend would rest well knowing what his sacrifice meant.
And, by the way, get the black widow perk. So. Much. Fun.

I want to start a second weekly TF2 shackbattle, there seemed to be a fair amount of interest when I mentioned it the other day.
When: SUNDAY @ 9PM EST (6 pacific, 7 mountain, 8 central)
Where: ShackEast TF2, 66.55.155.51:27015, no password
Why: No one plays on my TF2 Server :(
I wanna keep this server running but I need players, and so far the turnout has been really low.
So lets rock some TF2 Sunday nights :D
