      - Yup, I heard that recently. It's not surprising. -- nm - Krusty Dec 17, 13:06

I went to reply to a response to the ups store shredding twitter post, but they've deleted it. - b. Dec 17, 12:28 2

Did the date move, or military groups by out? Every showing of They Shall Not Grow Old is showing as sold out in the DC area. -- nm - MDH Dec 17, 11:53
from bb, that michael wetherly kind of support is always baffling to me. not just because of the settlement, but it implies that everyone acts - b. Dec 17, 11:50 3
- yep. -- nm - Diva Dec 17, 12:02
- totally agree. -- nm - amanda Dec 17, 11:57

Dave Hakstol fired as Philly Flyers head coach. Gritty named as interim replacement (in a just world) -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 11:44 2
- Don't they have Quenneville ready to roll? or was that just a rumor? -- nm - Uhtred, son of Uhtred Dec 17, 12:03 1
  - I wonder if they shouldn't look next generation of hockey coaches. I like Quenneville, but I do wonder if coaches hit their peak younger than 60. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 17, 12:05

shaun, re b2, whisper - tRuMaN Dec 17, 11:38 25
- shaun, is it worth going after the exotic sword from the Warmind expansion? - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:08 16
  - I have it and never use it. It was the most fun/most annoying quest I have ran. -- nm* - Spawn Dec 17, 12:15 13
    - thats the one where you shot the little colored things on mars right? -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:17 12
      - No, the one I am thinking is you have to open all the floating nodes. -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 12:19 11
        
        thats sleeper simulant, the exotic heavy. its one of the best weapons in the game spawn. -- (link*) - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:20 [Image] 10
        
        No. I know the gun but do not have it. I completed the floating nodes thing. Guess I will look into it. -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 12:24 7
        
        Warmind has 3 exotics, sleeper stimulant, the sword, and a scout rifle. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:28 5
        
        I thought the nodes first gave me the sparrow and then gave me the sword. But that could have been the shooting. -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 12:31 4
        
        i was totally ignoring the exotic vehicles or ghosts, cause those are mostly useless. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:46 2
        
        Yeah, but it was helping me remember the steps! -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 12:52 1
        
        you have quests that tell you the steps spawn. sorta. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:54
        
        smaller nodes give you sleeper. shooting "memories" gets you the sparrow than sword. - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:45
        
        That will be sweet if I can get it from collections. - Spawn Dec 17, 12:25
        
        I should probably get around to this quest as well. -- nm - Shaun Dec 17, 12:21 1
        
        its not really that bad. - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:45
  - As of now, unless you are a completionist, I haven't seen any evidence or discussion about it being useful enough to take up your exotic slot. -- nm - Shaun Dec 17, 12:09 1
    - k then. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:11
- Too many quests, I’m not even sure I know about this one - J Dec 17, 11:53 1
  - this is the exotic sniper which reloads on streaks of crit hits. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:05
- Good info. It's a good weapon to have, even if you never use it, just because of its potential. -- nm - Shaun Dec 17, 11:41 5
  - I think it would be nice to have for the forges, and nightfalls -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 11:45 4
    - I'll give the initial Forge another go when I'm around 620 I think. -- nm - Shaun Dec 17, 11:55 3
      - I am high 620s, so in theory I should be good, even if the others are only 610 to 620. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:06
      - Yeah, I am at 611 and 613 right now, but could already be at 614 and 617. Should be 620s by the weekend. -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 11:58 1
        
        DIM tells me 619.3 so I am closer than I thought. I am 5 matches away from Breakneck. I think I'll wrap that up then maybe start character 2. -- nm* - Shaun Dec 17, 12:01
Hopefully the PS4 Spiderman comic can turn out as fun as Injustice did for DC. Although I doubt Marvel will go full bonkers like DC did with it... -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 11:37 1
- man...Injustice is so good. -- nm - Remlik Dec 17, 11:38
Good news: it looks like water has stopped coming into the basement, and we've got about 70% of the water up. Bad news: - prayformojo Dec 17, 11:37 11
- drat. :/ -- nm - b. Dec 17, 11:53
- so sorry. I guess an indoor swimming pool isn't an option? -- nm - decline Dec 17, 11:52 2
  - It's only fair that you consider yourself slapped for this. - Beryllium Dec 17, 13:11
  - Afraid not. Chlorine's just not in the budget -- nm - prayformojo Dec 17, 12:07
- I feel your pain. It sucks. -- nm - pmb Dec 17, 11:51 1
  - thanks, but this is small potatoes next to what you've gone through this year. and groiny's flooding over the years has been miles worse than mine -- nm - prayformojo Dec 17, 11:57
- hideous. -- nm - Andie Dec 17, 11:51
- ugh -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 11:47
- man....sorry to hear. -- nm - Remlik Dec 17, 11:47
- I am so sorry to hear this. -- nm - Diva Dec 17, 11:45 1
  - word. -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 11:46
from mayor of a city of 100,000 to running for President seems like a big jump no? -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 11:36 14
- I literally just saw a Tweet about this as if it was a thing. I don't get it. - Name Withheld By Request Dec 17, 12:02 9
  - is it really stranger than Beto? or even obama who had less time in office than this guy would have? - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:07 5
    - Plus, Beto is a loser. Pete is a winner. -- nm - Spawn Dec 17, 12:53
    - I'm firmly in the "Beto isn't going to be in serious contention either" camp, but his platform and infrastructure is a lot further ahead. - Name Withheld By Request Dec 17, 12:20 3
      - I like Beto, but as Vice President with Biden taking the lead. -- nm - Qale Dec 17, 12:50 2
        
        to many Bs in that slogan. replace Biden with someone who isnt old and maybe we have a deal. - tRuMaN Dec 17, 12:55 1
        
        Too much testosterone in that slate. A woman will be on there if not the top of the slate. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 17, 12:58
  - This is the guy that Zukerberg met with a while back. - Spawn Dec 17, 12:04 2
    - I think the Democrats with influence need to convince a few of the "flyer" candidates to take a knee this cycle. - Name Withheld By Request Dec 17, 12:07 1
      - Yeah, it basically encourages the worst thing for them - Will Hunting Dec 17, 12:58
- I would say yes. but I am not sure such a person would be any more, or less qualified, than a House of Representatives person at a national level. -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 17, 11:37 1
  - oh, he sounds more than qualified on reading the article; just a big move -- nm - Beaker Dec 17, 11:38
- lol -- nm - Trump Dec 17, 11:37
- I think so to. -- nm - Remlik Dec 17, 11:36
