Ugh. I'm exhausted. Having my mom visit and trying to arrange activities with her and the kids (and a niece) every day for 4 days gets to be a little much. And it's not just one thing, we have to have something to do in the morning and evening.

I need a vacation from my vacation.

I never understand people who do things on vacation. When I had this week off, I got from so many people "What are you doing?!" And they all seemed shocked when I said I'd be sitting at home in the AC, probably playing video games in my underwear. And that's exactly what I'm doing, minus the underwear. I take time off work to relax, not to run around like an idiot wearing myself out.

fuck yea it is. I really liked the first one, but Covenant was even better. Great wrap up to the story. The third one though..

Yeah, the first two were great. I even did all (most) of the extra quests for the best weapons and armor.

That third one.... didn't even finish.

I changed my ID to match my PSN ID. Makes sense and also maybe helps a few idiots that can't spell.

Yup. My mom LOVES to travel and just can't comprehend that when I do actually spend my precious vacation hours at work, I want to relax with my time off, not go to some new city and go out and do things every day.

Even if I go somewhere, it's somewhere I can relax. A couple years ago we went to the Dominican Republic and I sat on the beach all day. That was fine. I want to be somewhere I can chill in my underwear by the water, minus the underwear of course.

just some food for thought - I took my complete download list spreadsheet and starting filling in howlongtobeat.com times. I got through the D ps3 games and the completion time (not 100%) was already up to 493 hours. interestingly, 6 of the 49 games comprise about 38% of those hours (Borderlands 1/2, Demons Souls, Deus Ex HR, Disgaea 3, Dragons Dogma).

the 100% time on those same games is a hilarious 1,641.5 hours. disgaea 3 is listed as 400 hours which can't possibly be right, can it?

when I'm done with this thing I'll publish it so you can guys can draw your own conclusions about how ridiculous this is.

You nearly 100%'ed Men's Room Mayhem before even touching Demon's Souls?

Interesting graph:

npd_home_201406zxql1.png


I just took it from a comment on GAF, not like I confirmed the numbers or anything, but it's probably fairly accurate.  XBone is the third fastest selling console in the graph, but still can't get away from the "megaflop" mindset, which is awesome.  Lol WiiU.

And fuck ing GAF, they found a site that posted the exact NPD numbers and seem to be able to confirm the numbers are correct.  So they go plaster the website's name and link and images all over the OP so they will almost certainly be warned or stripped from their NPD access in the coming months.  Very smooth, GAF.  Way to keep things under the radar.

 
I sit at a desk most of the time at work so I don't mind doing "stuff" on vacation. I mean how would I get to go to old school arcades if I didn't go do something? Obviously this has to be offset by beach time and doing other lazy shit but jeez sitting around all day with no sun actually sounds pretty awful.

 
Sorry I don't usually follow the sales numbers that closely, but is the NPD stats just the US sales figures?  I thought PS4 had sold something like 8 million units total.  If that is the case, the it must be selling like crazy in Europe if these are the US figures.

There is really not a large lead for PS4 based on that chart.

This can't be right. I'm pretty sure someone told me the Wii U was the greatest selling console of all time and definitive proof that Nintendo excels at making hardware.

NPD is US only. PS4 is selling like crazy in Europe, that is where they are building their massive lead over Xbox, which has always done quite poorly across seas because they're so terrible about supporting it over there. US has been a Microsoft territory for years now so the fact that the PS4 is leading in the US is actually surprising. The 360 sold about 16 million more consoles than the PS3 did here (42 vs. 26 mil)

I just watched this Spring Breakers movie and holy shit was it dumb. I can't believe I stuck it out through the whole thing. I think it's mostly because I was partly distracted by the boobs. If that movie had no boobs, it would be the worst movie ever.

Boobs were the only thing good thing for the movie. James Franco looked funny playing a character looking like Riff Raff. That was the worst Harmony Korine movie I seen.

Stotch have you ever seen his other films: Kids, Gummo or Julian Donkey Boy? Korine makes some fuck ed up movies.

Nah, I haven't. I was also under the impression that it was supposed to be funny. I swear I heard it was a comedy. So that left me disappointed as well.

 
Haha that was a hilarious 3 pages of catching up. I think I had to use up most of my like quota so fuck you guys. Thanks for clarifying that condom, I thought I was going crazy for a second and somehow  confused you with this jimbo dude.

Also, here is a list of people who have "liked" the threads in front of us (unlike that shit please and thank you)

I have? That shocks me since I was not one to like threads at all before.

ETA: Fixed that issue, one less like for that one.

I just voted (#40) this thread for 5 stars. I can't believe I forgot to vote the stars.

Wait til we become #1 and then all the randoms jump in this thread and its turns into a massacre. 

 
We're a solid #3 now with Gator's dislike (moving ahead of the Black friday one), mitch is the only one of that group that has a dislike left to help us out.

Well, it's more of the fact that she's travelling down here to do stuff with the kids. So really, my "vacation" is finding stuff to do with her and the kids on her vacation.

You might get more girls though. ;)

Although then according to the rules i would have to fight them.

On another note the prize I won in the mail today came with the perviest note that makes me believe it's a long lost relative of Snakey.

It was Snakey himself as he has all your contact information by now. Make sure to lock your windows.

Post it please.

Spring Breakers was awesome but I like highly stylized movies like that.

I voted this thread five stars when it first started but when people tell me to do something, I generally don't.

I can't tell anymore, your original post made it sound like you were Pro-"En Eee Ess", but your follow-up makes it sound like you are Anti-"En Eee Ess"? I fall on the Pro-NESS side, but don't begrudge people who use "En Eee Ess" because it IS an acronym.
Click to expand...
No, I loathe people that call it NESS. It is an acronoym so it is an en eee ess. I had a typo in my post that might have thrown you off. My apologies. fucktard.

Anybody in So. Cal see this story of a man that breaks into a El Pollo Loco through the drive thru window and then returns the same day for lunch? He wore the same clothes, hat and the manager then called the cops after noticing him.

not at all the same thing, but I worked with this thug at mcdonald's who would call in sick to work and then drop by for lunch the same day, asking for free food. one day, there was a manager (who was in Up With People, look it up) who chased him out with a baseball bat. go suburbs!

I should probably start archiving poll results, huh?  Not so much so that we can look back at them, just so I can remember which questions I've already asked...
