Cockpunch Wars --- A New OT (08/28/09)

But my brother has been running the developer copy for about a month now. In short – Yes its worth it. Everything is faster. Its like a brand new computer.

Here’s a gif

for this gem.

but the bacon is otherworldly, and the steak is pretty much perfect. Plus it’s one of those slices of old NY that really don’t exist in very many places anymore, so it’s awesome for that as well.

Keens is famous for their pipe collection and it is cool to see.

at least they didn’t a couple years ago. Cash or check.

Gotta practice…

You know, after they have you speak like a kindergartner for a year.

If you’re lost, look for the Antigone Rising albums, and hang a left after vomiting on the purloined Marvin Gaye greatest hits they’ve scraped together.

Slowly walking down the hall faster than a cannonball? WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN. IT MEANS NOTHING

Holy crap.

Bill? I get it. You were made a vampire in a more genteel age. But guess what? Everyone else in your little vampire clan has adapted to modern times, you could too. Stop talking like an 1850’s grandfather, stop demanding Sookie be nothing but a kept woman and always trying to keep her out of harm’s way (seriously, she’s annoying but she can take care of herself pretty well), and let the interesting people do stuff.

I would love to see a spinoff of True Blood with nothing but Eric and Lafayette. Wacky roommate hijinks!

The Hoyt/Jessica thing has been great throughout and both Bellefleurs have been awesome for much of the season. Jason is probably my favorite main character at the moment, if not Sam, though his development has stalled a bit.

I think Maryann serves her purpose in some ways after last season, but it’s gone on a fair bit longer than reasonable without much of anything happening.

Gonna watch the new episode tonight…

Lindsay is a pain in the ass, and not scary atall.

We should totally play.

It’s a common game mechanic to keep a game close. Without, it’s very hard to overcome someone who jumps out to an early lead.

Playing with people who take forever always stinks whether it’s Catan or waiting for Batista to throw a GD pitch. One solution is to not play with those people. Another involves a stopwatch and a cattle prod.

We make the same stupid jokes over and over while playing Catan. It’s become part of the game. What’s the joke about getting a card from the wood pile. Ours is to say “major wood” in any turn you get more than one wood.

The other replayed joke is to trade with your card face down and give someone the same thing they just gave you:
Player 1: “I’d like a wood and have a sheep”
Player 2: “No thanks.”
Player 1: “Anyone want my sheep?”
Player 3: “Sure, here you go.”
Player 1: “Wait, I wanted a wood…”
Hilarity ensues.

He’s chattering non-stop though
