The Budweiser "Brewed the Hard Way" nonsense was pretty amusing. They went out of their way to insult craft beer drinkers and craft beer in general, right after they purchased four craft breweries (INCLUDING one that sells a Pumpkin Peach Ale that they called out as nonsense in the commercial)...

With how often I see people dressed up as soldiers, or Raccoon City police, or other video game/anime types with realistic weaponry walking or transiting to conventions, I am surprised this isn't a more common occurrence.

I think it actually does have a melony flavor. Well, as much as a melon flavored bread can taste of melon. It's just one of the odder melons (and there are dozens).

The wall of horse thing reminds me of a time we were discussing the fun of the clerical summoning spells, to which the highest one the cleric could cast would summon a Celestial Whale. Which lead us to discussing the ramifications of summoning such a whale, especially on land. Instead of Summon...

Personally I think of Mass Effect's Geth when I see this. Especially the part where they start shutting down the other robots, and CHAPPiE gets mad. That's where I think this differs from the Johnny 5 thing, is CHAPPiE is potentially the start of a new "Race" of beings (and the bad guys seem to...

Marvel was in desperate straights in the 90s, to the point that they almost shut down. To prevent that, they sold a lot of their characters movie rights away and got a bum deal on a lot of them because, as I said, they were desperate (they have since gotten several back due to their movies...

People's Republic of Overreactistan? Yea, I lol'd irl. Thanks Bob.

I hate how much the English language is being abused in this thread. You can disagree with Target all you want, but it's capitalism, not censorship. They carry prolly less than 10% of every game, movie, book, and TV show available (nevermind clothes, food, furniture, medicines, health products...

I'm hyped. I'll pretty much be buying a PS4 for this game. Kinda like how I bought a Vita for P4G, and a 3DS for PQ. I have a problem. Heh. To be fair, the only one of those I hadn't planned on getting (though I still wanted) was a 3DS. But yea, Atlus is always really stingy with the updates...

I think the crossbar on the saber would be cooler if not for the metal bits jutting out of the hilt. Those are the weak points, and make it much too weak to rely on. Otherwise, yea, I kind like it. And yes, Millenium Falcon porn, gotta love it. Heh. Jurassic World looks dumb, but fun. I can...

I've been hearing that some places are wanting to avoid the bad press of being open on Thanksgiving itself. I can't find the NPR story about it (cuz my work internet won't load the page). Though I have friends with a coffee shop (with a, shall we say, unique and special theme/clientele) who will...

If your demographic tends to like beer, why are you reporting on Budweiser? haha jk If folks want to drink it, who am I to judge? And this story is actually making the rounds of the craft beer sites/blogs as well. It's kind of funny, cuz an image is circulating around craft beer...

They got Metallica because everyone in Blizzard (at least the higher ups anyways) are huge Metalheads. I mean, they are in a Metal Band themselves (Elite Tauren Chieften is all Blizzard execs). So yea. And they had Ozzy at Blizzcon a few years back, which is an even less recent act then...

I am entirely too amused that you used the phrase "swings and roundabouts". British idioms in general really, I'm weird, I get that. At any rate, I wish companies would stop lying about their reasons for graphics decisions being what they are.

I think another big point Greenpeace was trying to get at is that Shell has a poor safety record in regards to how they handle their oil drilling practices, lots of oil spills and such. They likely feel that Shell has not been held to account for their actions and wanted to see their biggest...
