Oh yay, the ants are back. Just big ones so far, though. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 19, 09:20 4

"Some of Jeb Bush’s most steadfast allies think Saturday might be the end." -- (link) - ML Feb 19, 09:20 13
- He'll probably cry. Worst crier I have ever seen. He cries so much. Jeb. Maybe it's because he took his glasses off, I don't know. He cries! It's true - Trump Feb 19, 09:38
- His campaign was such a weird mix of entitlement and resignation. -- nm - TWuG Feb 19, 09:22 4
  - It was like he could never get over the fact that people didn't just flock behind him. He carried himself like he was bewildered and depressed most - pmb Feb 19, 09:27 3
    - It was definitely one of the most "This is what this guy is" campaigns I've ever seen. - Mel Profit Feb 19, 09:31 2
      - Dad was the smart one. The sons, at least those that have held office, seem to be average thinkers. - TWuG Feb 19, 09:33 1
        
        I think maybe Jeb! is less stupid than Dubya but still dumb. - Mel Profit Feb 19, 09:35
- I'm hoping he gets a good result in SC and pushes on for a while. I think his support would tend to throw behind Rubio which could change the race. -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 09:22 6
  - You would rather Trump go independent later, than sooner? -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:23 5
    - The odds he goes independent are slim imo. - Will Hunting Feb 19, 09:28 2
      - Wait, you don't think he is doing this all for Hillary? -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:33 1
        
        No. He's just this narcissistic and sees an opening. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 19, 09:34
    - I don't think he'll go independent. If he would I'd be fine with it either way. -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 09:24 1
      - Oh I think he's in it as long as he can sustain the enthusiasm. He'll go 3rd party if it means he gets to stay in. - Mel Profit Feb 19, 09:33
Chris, thanks for that link about that woman who had the stem cell treatment for blindness. Sent it to a friend (his wife actually) who has had macula - zork Feb 19, 09:19

  - *hands over the transcript* -- nm - zork Feb 19, 09:28
- I don't think Ted Cruz has been to California. -- nm - amoxy Feb 19, 09:23
- Big, if true. -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:18
- let's think about that -- nm - ML Feb 19, 09:14 3
  - apparently it's an internet thing now -- nm - decline Feb 19, 09:18 2
    - Thinking? That can't be true. -- nm - Max Feb 19, 09:19

I didn't believe it possible to know Bruce McDonald enough to conflate two of his movies, but I seem to have mixed up "Roadkill" and "Hard Core Logo" - Mop Feb 19, 08:53 3
- Fun Fact - Mr. Skin (Satan) from Highway 61 is on my ball team. -- nm - Andie Feb 19, 08:56
- heh, the last line in your im is me all the time. -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 08:55 1
  - I also conflate pippy and pixie. -- nm - Mop Feb 19, 09:03
There's no escaping the jaws of the alien this time.... -- nm - prayformojo Feb 19, 08:53
Speaking of Games with Gold, rumors are that Borderlands is going to be a free download next month. - ML Feb 19, 08:52 18
- I still want the Presequel to become backward compatible. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 19, 08:56 1
  - I think that would make it disappear in the space/time continuum. -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 09:07
- Wasn't it already once? I got some game that everyone loved that way but haven't played it. -- nm - iSpam Feb 19, 08:52 15
  - nope, here's the full list of past releases -- (link) - ML Feb 19, 08:55 14
    - It was Bioshock. -- nm - spamlet Feb 19, 09:17
    - (did you get Shadow of Mordor yet?) - ML Feb 19, 09:00 12
      - I haven't even started Diablo! - spamlet Feb 19, 09:16
      - Does it matter if you get it for xbox or xbone? Woot has it for xbox for like $8. -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 09:02 10
        
        I saw that. Graphics detail is a big part of this game, so I highly recommend the GOTY version for the One. -- nm - ML Feb 19, 09:04 9
        
        What does the GOTY version give you over the regular version (which is 10 bucks cheaper)? -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 09:06 8
        
        more stuff -- nm - decline Feb 19, 09:12
        
        most of it is the DLC - ML Feb 19, 09:10 4
        
        So I'm pretty unlikely to dive into a lot of side missions. I like to play the story and move on (I don't devote a lot of hours to gaming), so I - pmb Feb 19, 09:15 3
        
        Yep--for each their own. I'd still hold out for the standard edition for the One then, due to the graphical difference. -- nm* - ML Feb 19, 09:20 2
        
        Yup. That seems like the plan. - pmb Feb 19, 09:23
        
        imo, this decision is a no-brainer. The current gen version is going to be superior in every way. -- nm - Shaun Feb 19, 09:22
        
        All the DLC, if that's of value to you. -- nm - Shaun Feb 19, 09:08
        
        Graphics detail -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:08
Why are you losing your bus pass? - iSpam Feb 19, 08:48 6
- I actually think I'm pretty okay. would you like to know more? - sp commander amanda jones Feb 19, 09:01 2
  - Can I say I'm a big fan of the asterisk? - spamlet Feb 19, 09:18 1
    - I take a free bus every day from campus to my office park. my walk to my bus stop can be as short as 1.4 miles. - sp commander amanda jones Feb 19, 09:28

Xboxers, Tomb Raider definitive edition is 8 bucks and change this week in the store - J Feb 19, 08:42 11
- Can someone explain to me how it is that I purchased this game on 9/19/2015? - Mop Feb 19, 09:19 3
  - iirc it was a GWG title. -- nm - Shaun Feb 19, 09:26 1
    - Ah, that's probably it. -- nm - Mop Feb 19, 09:28
  - Yes, not as cheap though -- nm* - J Feb 19, 09:24
- Gears of War 2 (for xbox 360) is the second half of the month gold game now, too. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 19, 08:55
- Box or Bone (or both)? -- nm* - ML Feb 19, 08:47 3
  - "Definitive" is the Bone version. -- nm - Shaun Feb 19, 08:50 2
    - gracias--the 360 version isn't (yet) backwards compatible right? -- nm* - ML Feb 19, 08:52 1
      - Not yet. -- (link) - Mop Feb 19, 09:30
- Buy Rocket League instead. -- nm - Shaun Feb 19, 08:43 1
  - You've mentioned this before, I have yet to check it out -- nm - J Feb 19, 08:45
So you just get home, but have to go again out in a bit. How long before you take your coat off? take your shoes off? Change clothes? - amoxy Feb 19, 08:42 4
- I will come back from lunch sometimes and leave my coat on for a couple hours to mess with my coworkers. - Max Feb 19, 08:48
- coat is off immediately - shoes almost always too and definitely if the wait is longer than 10 minutes -- nm - decline Feb 19, 08:47
- Coat comes off. Rest stays on. I generally leave my shoes on and I'm not changing clothes unless I'm done with them for the day. -- nm - pmb Feb 19, 08:45
- I would find something else to do for an hour. If I sit down, I am toast. -- nm - groiny Feb 19, 08:43
Is there a supercut of Steven Seagal running? Because that would be pretty- there *is*! -- (link) - Max Feb 19, 08:41 [youtube]

    - Twice Oscar Nominated Under Siege -- nm - amoxy Feb 19, 08:56
    - That was different. The first 4 were kinda like his resume. Under Siege was when Hollywood believed he was A-List. -- nm - Mop Feb 19, 08:45
    - 1 just for Erica Eleniak and cake -- nm - groiny Feb 19, 08:44 19
      - Brenda Bakke > Erica Eleniak. nm - Dignan Feb 19, 08:57 8

        Hot Shots, Part Deux -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:01 2
        
        she was attractive, but not on that level IMO -- nm - groiny Feb 19, 09:03 1
        
        agreed -- nm - Spawn Feb 19, 09:18
        
        She was in Under Siege 2. Yeah Dignan has that reversed -- nm - amoxy Feb 19, 09:00 3
        
        I think he's just saying what order he'd kidnap them in. One for practice. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 19, 09:07 2
        
        whoa -- nm - prayformojo Feb 19, 09:33 1

      - I don't care - Epiphany Feb 19, 08:51
      - I wondered if Steven Seagal sexually assaulted her during the filming. - Mop Feb 19, 08:48 3
        
        at that point, I am sure she welcomed it to get into movies. - groiny Feb 19, 08:55 2
        
        lord knows what she had to do to Hasselhoff to get on Baywatch -- nm - Beaker Feb 19, 08:56 1
