    Kentucky Route Zero Act 1 Review

    Any game with Kentucky in the title is a buy for me. Greatest state in the Union, right here. If not, at least in the top 50.

    Stupid things you believed as a kid

    Aaaand it took to the 2nd post. Congratulations, you're that weirdo on the news who always shoves his religion (lack of) into people faces. EDIT: And I'm he guy who forgot to actually post my say. I thought I could fly by pulling up a chair I was sitting on.

    Poll: Lets pretend the government passes a law stating that you can't have a gun anymore...

    Hide them. Claim I sold them. Whichever. However, I live in the great state of Kentucky, where I will never have to worry about that. (At least as far as my firearms go, I don't have anything that qualifies as an "Assault Weapon" under the old federal law.)

    Ignore this

    Absolutely not. The entire world economy revolves around selling something for more than you acquired it for. As long as you didn't do this to any close friends, I'd say you're entirely in the moral right.

    Question for those outside of the USA - Measurements

    I have a question for Europeans: What measurements does your wood come in for shopwork? Here in the States some of our standard cuts are 2x2 (inches, but it is actually 1.5x3.5. Its cut at 2x4, then dried and sanded), 4x4, etc. What does lumber come in overseas?

    You Should Tip

    I work as a server in a restaurant (in Kentucky). I get paid $2.13 an hour, which is all taken out by taxes. So, unless I work a few hourly shifts in there, my paycheck every two weeks will be for $0. The only money we see is what we make on tips. Technically, we are supposed to make enough...

    The Grey - Worst Movie I've seen in a Long time.

    .... I don't understand? People get mad at this movie because the wolves aren't realistic. So? Jaws wasn't a realistic depiction of sharks, did you really let that ruin that movie for you too? If you're looking for realistic depictions of wildlife in Man vs. Wildlife stories, you will be...
