I haven't had the time to start reading very much, so I can't. And I wouldn't want to inspire you to start reading THOSE kind of books.

Beat Saber is a very fun VR game. Especially with the community download that makes your sabers look like Saber's Excalibur.

I might get an opportunity to try some beat saber later. For spending enough money in a shopping mall.

When you see a growing light at the end of the tunnel... Better be sure it is not an incoming train.

I won a chance to try beatsaber at the local shopping mall by spending enough moolah.

I just watched videos of people playing beatsaber on YouTube. Let's hope I don't embarrass myself too much. And make my try at beat Saber run last as long as possible. Since I'm assuming you get to try only until you lose the level.

I've never done dance dance revolution nor have I had much luck at rhythm games in the arcade since I'm a clumsy fk.

See if they let you turn on no fail mode. We were using that to get used to the interface.

What are stick biscuits?

*Looks innocent and maos*

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

No, this is a camping thing. I bet NH has done it.

You make a thick dough and wrap it around a stick and cook it over the fire. I've never been into it much myself; I'd rather cook in a pan over the fire. But hard-core backpackers measure the weight of *everything* and don't always like to bring niceties like cook pans.
I belong to the Sam Gamgee school of camping. I schlep half a kitchen with me.

Pretty much, except we did it at bonfires instead of camping. If you get your biscuit sticks the right size you can slide a hot dog inside of it instead of using a bun. Since I don't care for hot dogs, I would just put some jam in there and enjoy.

If you want to keep me away from your food, put coconut on it. I will stay as far from it as I can. While I dislike pineapple in general, I loathe coconut.

Spoiler:

Things are being kicked into the long grass, basically, probably because the C*n*e*v*t*v* P*r*y realise that they've cocked things up good and proper and pissed off their natural supporters amongst the captains of commerce & industry and want to maintain the status quo as long as possible while clinging on to power (which means Disco Theresa can't push the Brexiteers on her right too far). There will probably be a general election before B-Day

Final Fantasy Tactics - War of the Lions: EMERGENCE (Hack) is f++@ing amazeballs!

They change Ramza into the "noble" class in chapter 1, and over the course of the game he slowly upgrades to a dark knight.

They rebalanced all the jobs, and changed the job tree, and added new stuff.

It's just...so much better!

The Hack Also Added (big list):

Staffs now all give buffs instead of doing damage.
Rods do damage based on your magic stat, not your physical, so mages can hit with them decent
Fights are balanced out to be less ridiculous, like Riovanes castle
Luso has been changed to a Meliadoul clone instead of a Ramza clone
Most moves require MP to balance them out
Serious Archer buffing! (Charge has been swapped for debuff arrows)
Serious Thief buffing! (Crossbow proficiency, poach built into the class, and more)
All stores sell everything (except the poach stuff still is trade towns)
Knight class changed to Soldier (cause only nobles are knights)
HOLY SHIT is Mustadio upgraded
Balthier is downgraded, but still awesome!
Orlandu is debuffed, but you still can't bring that powerful motherf@@~er down to everyone else's level
New Magus class with access to Orran's powers and more!
Women-exclusive gear is now gender-neutral
The poaching list got all re-scrambled
All the 2-player exclusive stuff can now be found in 1-player somehow
A patch to get rid of that massive slowdown when you cast spells in the ISO
...and more I'm still discovering!

If they threw a new story on top of this I'd pay top dollar to play a real game. But they didn't. So there's that. But there's still all the War of the Lions extras.

Well, it all works out in the end:

Since Shiro's family lives in Kentucky, he stays in Fremont over Thanksgiving and feeds any wayward friends who have nowhere else to go. This year was going to be his smallest gathering ever, with just him, his son, and Lara Croft guy.

So we're bringing down OUR turkey and such and combining the feasts.

Yeah, it's 28 pounds of turkey for 7 people.

But it'll be fun nonetheless.

4 pounds of turkey per head? Pure meat or bones included?

This is two whole turkeys with giblets.

Lara Croft guy?

I'm sure I've mentioned him before -- he's worked on every single Lara Croft game since the original. Very much like me, he starts working for a company and just stays there instead of trying to climb the corporate ladder.

But yeah, he's got a LOT of Lara Croft swag. I'm sure you'd love to meet him...

A destroid, any destroid.

Though if forced to pick just one I'd definitely go with Excalibur.

Today is the 23rd.
Which means the cd I pre-ordered for the holidays shipped today.
This band I like (because how can you not like a band that mixes a full horn section with accordion?) made a new album of rock arrangements of traditional Polish carols.
If I'm *really* lucky, it will get here before next weekend, so the kids and I can listen while we decorate.

Favorite giant robot? Tough one. Probably the VF-1S from Robotech (or whatever they called it in Macross). But there is a special place in my heart for the Urbanmech from Battletech. I also really like the Deathstrike Gundam from Gundam Wing.

I will always have a fondness for Goldar from The Space Giants, if only because the place from which he shot his missiles gave me the giggles every time I saw the show as a kid...

unlike some properties I could mention, super robot wars did not steal designs from popular overseas properties and get upset that they got caught.

There is no Thanksgiving here, so there is no Black Friday here either. It is a regular Friday so I will spend some money on food today.

Also go check on stationary bikes, though actual purchase will take place tomorrow, as I talked a friend to give me ride back home with the bike.

I'm going out, but only because Poopsie, The Magical Slime Surprise Unicorn is on sale.

And I'm not working today for the first time in probably forever.

Also our furnace needs a new filter.

The Freeholdian Council does not recognize Silvar or Space Giants, holding up Diana A's Oppai Missile/Breast Missile as superior.

I know hardly anything about your westminster system, is the general election triggered by a no-confidence vote where Disco Theresa gets replaced by another PM?

I need to return the boots which I bought in September... The left one is mostly ok, but the right one had its interior cloth piece worn out already and is chaffing me. Also, the sole is giving way from the top where the interior... I have no idea how to call... Mesh, grating? The construction that is supposed to make the sole under the heel lighter, is collapsing.

Two months. Dammit. That beats the previous boots that I bought last year which served three months.

My favourite giant robot is the enormous metal space demon in a Conan story that I can't remember the name of who can only be slain with his own dagger.
