Everyone who calls themselves "wolf-something" or "something-wolf" almost inevitably turns out to be an irredeemable shitneck.

If you like the feelings of suspense and constantly being hunted in alien, I would really suggest Alien Isolation: It's one of the best suspense/horror games I've ever played (even if it is just elaborate hide and seek with the alien) and the sound and feel of the game really gets the alien/aliens feel across.

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

Alien: Isolation does have fantastic atmosphere.  Playing it alone, in the dark would be quite the experience.

Yeah, headphones on is the only way to play, the sound of metal falling in the distance, or steam valves around you, even the clicks of the retro 80's style computers. It's one of the few examples a game where sound is paramount and the graphics fall at the wayside.

I haven't been to New Orleans since before Katrina but goddamn I loved hanging out in that town. Out of any city in the states it is the one that feels the most West Indian.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who feels this way. :lulz:

It's overpriced and crowded and hilly and it smells like pee. I mean, there are nice things about it, but there are nice things about Fresno, too.

:lulz:

And I'm hogging all of them.

So, medicated for the disobedient pancreas thingie. 

Blood sugar down from 177 to 141 on day 1.

Mind you, I am also starving AND the principle side effect of Metformin is horrible liquid ass explosions for 1-2 weeks, so things are a festival here.

Presumably there is also a downside to the medication?

Potential lactose acidosis.  That's when your pH drops by .4 and you vomit on everything and die.

Not sure that's a downside, though.

To be fair, this is the Open Bar.

Which is, also to be fair, not usually home to the degree of dick-waving I expect to see everywhere else on Peedee.

Well, there isn't enough to go around so you have to hoard what you can get.

Calling Dr. Atkins, seems like ketosis not all that.

That's fair.

But isn't it also fair to consider it acceptable to bring said dick-waving to the Open Bar, as it's featured throughout the rest of the forum?
