http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?id=19255745
http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?id=20923779

The gist of the situation is that I come home to find the parking lot filled.
http://thekidd.shackspace.com/shack/2009/Parking%20Lot%20-%20Image.jpg
The school across the street is having PTA night or something, so every idiot around decides to park in my parking lot. I'm expecting my lady friend in a bit, so I call the tow company and let them know the deal; that is, I have a friend coming over, and I can't park anywhere, and neither will my friend when they get to my place.

5 minutes of waiting, one of the parents leaves, and I back into the free spot, but I'm left waiting still for my significant other to get here so I can direct her as to how things will go down when the tow truck gets here, and make sure they won't tow her car. She arrives before the tow company does, and sits in between two rows of cars, since she can't park anywhere, and there's no point in going anywhere else. Then one of my neighbors arrives. He's relatively new to the building and hasn't had to experience any of this, so I give him the 411 and then he's down with OPP.

It's at that point that another parent comes from the high school and gets into her car to drive off. She seriously backs up, and pulls forward, backs up, pulls forward. Like she completely pulls out of the spot and goes back in. Now she's on a far end, and isn't "blocked" in at all, but she feels that my lady friend's car is keeping her from backing up, and turning left, when in fact, she can just keep backing up into the street. It seems she prefers to inconvenience us, so she can just back up partially, then drive to her left, through the parking lot.
http://thekidd.shackspace.com/shack/2009/Parking%20Lot%20-%20Map.jpg

So she yells at us with a condescending tone to 'please' move our car. My lady friend strolls (at her leisure) over to her car (to move it. I mean she actually does move it further out of the lady's way) and says something along the lines of "whatever, you're not suppose to park here." The parent lady then says something that none of us quite catch, but the words 'piece of shit' are definitely involved. I'm not sure if she was calling my girl a piece of crap, or her car, but that pissed me off and I yelled back at her, etc, etc, and that's about where the video picks up, after I have calmed down, and my girl is sitting in her car (she rolled up the windows and just sat there drumming her fingers while the lady yelled), and the lady comes out of her car to yell at my lady friend.

This is likely a repost for many of you, but if you haven't tried this game, you might want to give it a shot. I've been playing this a lot in the past few days and it's really addicting.

http://crawl-ref.sourceforge.net/

It's called Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup, and it's a roguelike (such as rogue, nethack, etc.)

Bsacilly, it's a very graphically simple random dungeon crawl. There are a variety of races and classes, and the play style differs pretty drastically depending on what you choose.

I like this better than the other rogueslikes i've played because the creators really went out of their way to make it winnable by playing it straight. It's not like nethack, where you have to know a ton of inside tactics that you'd likely never figure out on your own. As with most roguelikes, the learning curve is pretty steep at the beginning, as you figure out what stuff does, and what the keys do. There are a lot of auto travel and shortcut keys to make things easier.

If you're starting out, i'd suggest playing a Mountain Dwarf Fighter. They are by far the easiest class to play, IMO. They start out with good armor, high damage, and high hitpoints. Later on, you can choose to worship Okawaru, who lets you boost your strength and will give you lots of weapons/armor later on.

Lately, i've been playing a spriggan enchanter, which is a really different style of gameplay. Shitty armor and shitty weapons, but it's a stealth class, and you can sometimes clear an entire room or defeat a boss before they even wake up or become aware of you. However, if you're overwhelmed in this class, it can be fatal.

I know some of you guys have played this. What are some of your favorite class/race combos?

This may be a silly question, but is an i5 750 likely to be the bottleneck when paired with a 5870? If yes, how about a 5850?

Silly question of course because there isn't much available in terms of performance information on those cards, but I'm open to educated guesses!

He probably wouldn't have liked it without it's packaging, and I probably wouldn't have gotten a refund, so yeah, thanks dude.
