The OT, 11-24

The Pleasantly Surprised By the VEB Retool Edition

Trever Miller is not a bad pitcher, and I don't mean to act like he is, but his inconsistency from year to year, when combined with his low upside, makes him indistinguishable, to me, from any of the minor league fliers that the Cardinals could take heading into the season.

I'm sure y'all can think of something to jibber jabber about without my help. have at it.

Left 4 Dead is awesome.

So was Cancun. I’m glad to be alive.

Thanks!

Got to see a crocodile in the Cancun lagoon while drinking a beer at a bar. Saw two barracudas, a stingray, and an absolutely MONSTROUS grouper while snorkeling. Wasn’t able to SCUBA dive because of my ever-so-mild asthma. Dammit, why do I have to be so brutally honest on my medical history forms?

Oh, and Chichen Itza is AMAZING.

For some reason I do not yet have L4D

I plan to soon though, and then I can assist you in ruining some zombies

WOO!

The multiplayer component is, of course, awesome.

Single player is damn fun too because the computer-controlled players are actually awesome instead of sucking like they do in most games.

I definitely enjoyed the demo

I played it a lot. There’s really nothing holding me from buying except that I’m lazy and haven’t gotten to it. Have a few games to get rid of to offset the cost, but it’s all good

I saw someone ask how else do you get a LOOGY.

If it wasn’t for the two day grace period, I would’ve bombed them with OSTLUND comments.

Heh

You have my blessing to take my multi screen rant about Ankiel, edit it for time and punctuation, dress it up with some numbers, and turn it into a front page post.

That's largely a formality that is meant to keep trolls out

New members are activated in the background assuming they pass the “obviously not a troll or someone we’ve already banned” test before the 2 day period.

sign up

and you’ll “magically” be active

if someone has the time to screen them it makes sense

and it keeps out the insta trolls but for the more persistent bastards. . . we’ll you’ve been boxed before.

Except with more passed balls.

Jeff's guide to not looking stupid:
+/- is an absolutely terrible stat, so don't use it, and don't give up on young players before they turn 24.

I miss making giant multi-gallon vats of kool-aid for this very reason

When the powder gets airborne, it hurts at first but then it becomes very pleasant.

kool-aid is a frighting mystery to me.

I am no longer in Spokane, but I think I'll keep the name anyway.

Just open the back of the truck and then floor it

Everything will dump all over the yard/driveway. This simplifies the process, plus helps you get rid of stuff you don’t need because it’s broken

This response pretty much insures you'll never be ask for moving help here at LL.

Well played.

Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.

I hate moving with a passion, so this is fine by me

But, I’m a nice guy so I’ll still show up to help anyway
