Now is the time when CNN blindly speculates on literally everything with the name Trump in it. -- nm - David Apr 9, 13:38 6
- imo Burnett is the most guilty of doing this, among the evening lineup. -- nm - Max Apr 9, 13:40 5

The government seized backpage.com last week and today has indicted seven people -- (link*) - ty97 Apr 9, 13:33 1

John Cusack on Female-Led High Fidelity Reboot: “They’ll Fuck it Up” -- (link) - Remlik Apr 9, 12:42 3
- He is not wrong, at least as far as the branding thing. Many elements of the original story would not work very well with role reversal. - Spawn Apr 9, 12:45
- I don't think John likes anything bought, sold, or processed by women. -- nm - Max Apr 9, 12:43 1
  - Six words too many. -- nm - Beast of Baron Apr 9, 12:45

- It is phenomenal game. One of the best I have ever played. On any platform. -- nm - Jovian Apr 9, 13:07 4
  - Dammit... - Guigue Apr 9, 13:08 3
    - yeah, you'll break that rule the first night -- nm - decline Apr 9, 13:11 1
      - Especially after you go to pronhub.com to continue the adventures of Yennifer. - Jovian Apr 9, 13:12
    - *laughs at your silly rules* -- nm* - Spawn Apr 9, 13:09
- Completed it an all its DLC. -- nm - Ender Apr 9, 12:51
- yeah, it's very good (although drags on after awhile) -- nm - decline Apr 9, 12:44
- Yes. It's Skyrim + nudity. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 9, 12:43
- LYC: I played a couple hours of the first one. Meh. -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 12:42 3
  - Yeah the controls in the first one are lacking, but the second one is much better, and I heard on many occasions that the third is the best game ever -- nm - Guigue Apr 9, 12:45 2
    - Really? Hmmm. - Spawn Apr 9, 12:46 1
      - They learned and the second is more classic. You can play The Witcher 2 without playing the first. So many people did that, there are many videos - Guigue Apr 9, 12:52

  - yeah but now they're changing the legalese on how the codes inputed are acquired. -- nm - Remlik Apr 9, 12:26 3
    - Though, as I'm reading it, I don't see how changing the redemption requirements would prevent Redbox from selling their codes. - Ender Apr 9, 12:29
    - Which, if they get it right; most buying sites are in deep trouble - Will Hunting Apr 9, 12:29 1
      - Nobody's won a court case in five years. It'd be shocking if Disney did. -- nm - David Apr 9, 12:32
  - Apparently they think just by changing the TOS on their redeeming site that solves that problem. -- nm - Qale Apr 9, 12:26

My first catch of the day today was a shiny Swablu. I’ve caught enough of those to evolve 2 of them, so that’s a whole lotta Swablu to get 1 shiny. -- nm - kelly Apr 9, 11:37 3

    - If he met Velvet Sky, you buried the lede. -- nm - David Apr 9, 11:55 3
      - I went with the one name I recognized. *shrug* -- (edited) - znufrii Apr 9, 11:59 2
        
        Oh, Flair is famous, so it's mainly a joke. Google images of Velvet Sky to see what I mean. -- nm - David Apr 9, 12:04 1
