Well, there's a motorcyclist who needs to learn the difference between safe lane splitting and being a moron. Genius gets in between a bus and the curb with maybe a few inches of clearance between the bike and the bus, in a right turn lane. Dude is so lucky the bus driver waited for him to turn before moving.
were they turning right too?
When you're on something like a motorcycle (or bicycle), you sometimes have to be obnoxious with vehicles like buses, otherwise they will hit you, kill you, say they didn't see you, and be believed in court.

I gave up dealing with Comcast. When I got my new place I ran the line and set up my own equipment after hanging up on Comcast's Indian tech call lines after the third person who couldn't understand English. I had internet in a few hours rather than the month plus Comcast would have taken.So to add to this week's fun there appears to be something wrong with our modem. So that's tomorrow down the drain while trying to deal with the evil Comcast. And hopefully it will be fixed then. Two days of no wifi already sucks. >.<
I live in an apartment. Choices are for people who live in houses. Apparently. But the internet is back online so I'm guessing this was yet another round of our tech messed the box up again when switching on/shutting off your neighbor's service. Happens. At least it wasn't the modem again so I don't have to spend tomorrow driving to the service center to exchange it for a new one.

Both vehicles were turning right. As somebody with a motorcycle license (albeight a new one), I do not view wedging a bike between a bus and a curb with barely any clearance as anything other than obscenely dangerous.

You know that torurer in the beginning of Skyrim, when you escape execution via dragon attack? I was following the Imperial guy to escape, and the torturer was saying so much stuff that made me angry. So I bashed his face in with a warhammer, and his assistant and the guy I was following didn't even react. They must not like that guy, either.

Rosita needs eggs, cooking spray, and cheese. Rosita goes to Trader Joe's. Rosita ends up with eggs, cheezse, fried mozzarella sticks, tortilla chips, and beer. No cookig spray. This is why Rosita is always going to the grocery store.
Cooking what?

I do have sticks of butter that are unused, but can I grease a cold baking sheet with them?Absolutely, I do all the time for cookies.
This. I do it for cakes and such. Just cut off a piece of cold butter and smear it on with your fingers until it is coated. It will change your life :)
Why do people that don't drink coffee think that people that do drink coffee want unrealistically huge coffee cups as gifts.Where are these people? I'm always short of mugs.... Also define unrealistically huge? Like it's really a soup bowl? Cause....those are actually pretty awesome.
All those, plus booze.

then he should have waited. That's just damn impatient.

The only thing that has changed is that I can no longer hold onto things.

You gotta leave the wrapper on the butter stick when you do it, coffee filters also work great at coating pans and such.
Maybe I need a Martha Stewart-esque alias.
Not a fan of Origin. By no means the worst, but just mildly frustrating on occasion is enough.

Does anyone else have the same hatred of Prius drivers that I do? I find they drive fast to get in front of you then slow down to slower than the speed limit and always seem so damn entitled on the road. Arghhhhhhh don't like them much. Sorta like a BMW driver but slower and not as nice a car.
| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
I like them, they let me know I need to switch lanes.
Plus, if there's a burgundy Prius not driven by an old guy in a button down shirt listening to public radio on his way to Trader Joe's I haven't seen it.

I tend to be more of a Zen driver (which you have to be when you drive a big ass truck with a skidder and trailer hooked up).
Not much you can do to piss me off when I'm driving, except, you know, hit me.

It's human nature... Or at least human driving nature.
I have seen drivers typically speed up when you try to pass them whether they want to drive slow or not. They automatically try to get around the car ahead of them simply because they want to be in front again whether or not they intend to drive slow. And they close ranks when you move to change lanes, because of course you should always be behind them not in front of them.| 4 people marked this as a favorite. |

We got snow.
We also got spam, advertising a website featuring friendly ladies with no clothes on, many of whom, apparently I probably know, want to meet one for sexeh timez. Nothing out of the ordinary there, but the message ends with:
"We have free slots open for new male members for a limited time only"
Which I thought was very good advertising.

As a marketing guru, it's not bad. I would probably go with something like "We have too many hawt females needing dates men needed immediately!

Well at least the forecast says our high for Sunday might get up to 0 degrees, might.
But yesterday they were saying our high would be -4. So 0 looks pretty sweet. :-)

-4 would be better though.....

You and me both.
So, concept of an idea in-development, at present:
Carrion Crown to Creeping Curse: an Egyptian Flavor of CC
I'm working on a Word Document, and have Haunting at Harrowstone as finished as it would need to be for my purposes, though I suppose it's not fit for human consumption (by any other than me and my diseased mind).
It... isn't really that, hard, surprisingly.
EDIT: for tag-fixing.

Consider me interested.
I want to go in a Ghostbusters direction myself, the end practically asks for it, I already did it as Harry Potter, that works really good, but coming up with the faculty and fellow students took some time.

And Scrappy?
(I'm guessing the construct is the Mystery Van?)
((That's awesome, by the way.))
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
That is super awesome, especially using Orc stats as Scooby, brilliant TOZ, simply brilliant. :-)
I'm also thinking of Council of Thieves and Serpent Skull. As a "local" trio with appropriately Egyptian flare, the three actually work fairly well for a series of "local" issues under the over-all reimagining.
For the record, I'm thinking of this pretty much exclusively due to our Blue Rose game and the concept of Hamunaptra across the Western Ocean. I'm... exceptionally unlikely to run those all as BR-related things, though, or even a full AP.
One of the things is that I can easily terms of events to work well within the contexts of the local world (in which case it becomes mostly a matter of flavor and terms), but there are a few mechanical things I need to work out... and compare PF rules to any BR rules and their changes. Also some 3.X things.
So ridiculously awesome!
