So has Champions. And they've "overhauled" the game so much that its unrecognizable to me now. Crafting is completely impenetrable to me, and appears to be a core part of the game now. And so much shit is premium now...  :'(

I wrote a Facebook rant this morning about something rather important to me. Since I liked the introduction, I desisted from rewriting it for the board and am just going to put the whole thing in spoilers.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Sounds like you have enough to do for the rest of your life :P

Makes me wonder what all the Iranian linguists are doing though...

Yeah, I think I've found my dissertation topic.

I thought shootings in the US stopped being breaking news quite a few years ago.

I meant 'breaking news' as in NEW news that is happening right now, not in the 'ooh lets use it for nearly every new bit of news and update' sense that CNN does........

Need something to vent the constant stream of moral outrage.

I can't tell whether you guys are misunderstanding my usage of 'breaking news' or are mocking me (probably not) or mocking something else

I was mocking CNN by parsing "breaking news" literally.

And now I'm mocking you by outrisght stating that I'm mocking you.

I wasn't really saying you WERE mocking me (and most likely wasn't anyway), just didn't know what the heck you were mocking.

By the time I saw it, it wasn't even breaking news. Just an under-detailed article in the main heading, right next to "Top 50 list we recycle any time something relevant to it happens" and a cute animal video.

CNN is basically a mash up of the Youtube front page and Twitter, now.

I think I threw up in my mouth a little last night, woke up around midnight with painful acid burning in the back of my throat. It might also have had something to do with a dream that might have indicated I've been playing to much Kingdom Hearts and Kerbal Space Program lately.

It's not like it's somehow a feature of the modern age.

I'd argue it is. There were not weekly instances of people/kids opening fire in places full of defenseless victims in the 50s.

And no, that isn't a "Golden Age" argument. It's a retort to people who want to dismiss the violence we're experiencing as normal, because it's that kind of apathy that assures nothing ever changes.
