Beer Me, Balthier!

Oh, they were definitely campy. That's honestly a big part of their charm for me though. 

And yeah, the newest isn't really a standalone. I pretty much like but don't love all of them, except for amazing 2. I have a soft spot for that one.

I thought the new Spidey was good, not great, and I've honestly felt more connected to previous ones, even the Amazing series. 

It was a fun watch, but for me, it lacked a certain heart and charm factor the others had. It gets a lot of stuff right, but there's plenty that annoys me as well.

Well, I'm sure they've been around, but I think they've become more ubiquitous. 

I wish a lot of characters we mentioned were in my vanilla Xrd. Only May is, I think.

Quick Hits: Chris Reads Comics, Enjoys Some Of Them

I wasn't watching that medley earlier only because on my feed, it was all about the reactions to it by political officials and I'm just not that interested in dissecting every damn comment or physical gesture of a person no matter how I feel about them. But the music is good. Lol 

I hope you get over your cold quickly. I gave myself fat ...

I watched the first episode of The Handmaid's Tale today and I'm not sure it's my thing. Depressed whisper voiceovers in dystopian settings are overdone imo. But with all the Emmy noms and since Hulu already charged me for the month, I'm willing to give it a shot. 

I can't get into single issue comics. I did buy an Aquaman one for like 10c before Hastings shut down, but that 10c was why. I love Batman and want to read long Halloween, but i get annoyed by how DC milks that character, where I think Marvel has their stories more evenly spread out. 

I actually got The House of Gold and Bones graphic novel I ordered from Half Price Books, which is written by Corey Taylor (Stone Sour/Slipknot) and illustrated by a couple other people, so I'm excited to read that. I just finished The Overture and I'm intrigued by the setting so far.

I'm honestly surprised Armstrong is still marketable enough to have a podcast like that, but then all it takes is a mic and an opinion. I was annoyed with him for reasons beyond sports, but I'm glad you're enjoying the podcast; always fun to hear passionate people discuss their passions, in any case. 

I think I'll still be wearing Hydrograd out this weekend, but the work trip to OK, MO, and AR this week had me listening to classic rock in the van. Think I'll learn Peace of Mind by Boston on guitar. 

I still need to see that Ghostbusters movie and Fantastic Beasts. I saw the book at HPB the other day, but forgot it was a literal collection of fictitious beast descriptions ... Think I may have gotten that as a kid, actually. Or maybe one about Quidditch rules?

Of course in n out is in that picture. Lol I had culvers in MO and really wish one was closer to my house. TECHNICALLY there are some 30 mins away, but that doubles in Dallas traffic, especially with all the construction. 

I remember seeing Total Recall on Netflix I think it was, at least the first part. So many classics I still need to see, like Alien and Blade Runner.

I kinda want to see those James Bond Hot Wheels now.

My guess for your favorite guilty gear character? Umm ... The one with the anchor? May, I think. Maybe Dizzy.

As far as sad game endings, Last of Us is an obvious one, but I honestly thought The Last Guardian was much more effective at tugging on my heartstrings. Life is Strange, too.

Ummm ... Honestly, I think sad video game endings are fairly new, don't you? I don't think they really happened that often until last generation, which I skipped. Or maybe I'm just like you, or was, and played lots of games either cheerful the whole way through, or had happy endings.

Life is Strange has a Hidden Agenda

I actually haven't watched it, as he isn't on this trip.

And they do setup for inventory, have to help us with SKU checks, and probably a decent amount of shelf maintenance once we leave, so it isn't fun for them. They're told six months in advance we're coming and have to precount and tags certain things for us as well. It's actually a bigger deal for them, since they're not doing it more or less every day like we are, but only once a year.

Hydrograd & The Perot Museum; 4:44?

That's cool and makes sense.

Honestly, pick a genre and I'll point you in the direction of a Stone Sour song you'd like. The band is mainly rock, but they're all over the place within that umbrella. And it's a rather large umbrella at this point ...

I have only heard the one he has a music video for, with the cartoon Jay Bo. It's good, but I made a mental note NEVER to think of the lyrics in public. Lol Double Toasted did a review of the video, so that's how I knew about it.

I really don't love Beyonce. I bought Dangerously in Love because that's the era of her music I do like. Lemonade is cool lyrically, but I can't get into songs with so little instrumental production. I think she's a great singer and performer, but I don't know about some of her songs. Plus, she's one of those artists where maybe she's ok, but her fans get annoying. 

I think Nickelback may also have gotten backlash because it was such a clear ploy to bring attention to themselves ... Well, maybe just Chad Kroeger. I watched the interview Corey Taylor did on the Arizona station 98 something something UD (idk) and according to Stone Sour, 

A) they declined a request from Nickelback to open for them 

B) Corey never claimed it was easy to write a hit song, and Chad is making that up

C) the money RoadRunner gained from Slipknot's success is what they used to sign Nickelback

D) Corey is cool with everyone in Nickelback except Chad, whom he says is making up stories about Corey putting their band down early on

Also, I think Nickelback have a new album, but Song #3 is #1 (or was a couple weeks running) on the rock charts and Nickelback is pretty low, so maybe that's part of it. 

Yeah, I probably will go back and get cash and ewf if those are still there. Crazy in Love was good, but baby boy feat. Sean paul has sean paul, who was a favorite of mine growing up. I don't like ALL Gaga's music (Born this Way was meh, don't know what I like on artpop besides applause, and I only like Million Reasons off Joanne from what I've heard of it) but I love pretty much everything from the early part of her career. I really like Alejandro in particular. I have ... Mixed feelings about its video. Lol

Another Gem Found In A Game Bundle...And Other Stuff

Always a good excuse. Never give someone shit for getting SWEET GAINS, I say. I'm honestly jealous of your gym. Could go for a swim after my workouts. I do when I'm with my folks sometimes anyway, but it would be convenient to have in same facility.

Dirk just forfeited millions of his contract so Mavs could get ... Someone. All I've heard. Waiting for Dirk's statue to go up and for how lit Dallas will be when the inevitable retirement parade occurs.

I need to play MGS 3 and 4 as well. My problem with stealth games is my impatience. I actually did run and gun through MGS2 on normal.

I still love AK Batmobile. But yeah, Batman would DEFINITELY have killed at least a few people whose heads he slammed in generators. Lol

Mighty No. 9 looks so good, but reviews keep me at bay; maybe they've patched it since.

Upside Down sounds like it could either be very fun or extremely frustrating. 

Sounds like you're doing circuits! I did 20 minutes of AMRAP stuff yesterday and ate at Culver's today, since I'm in Missouri for work. Yeah, I'm gonna get far again ..

Is games with gold different? I wouldn't think so, since after the month you can get them free, they just go back on sale, right?
