So I get this newsletter every day called World's Healthiest Foods from this guy, with a daily recipe.

Today’s is “Broiled Rosemary Chicken over Puréed Lentils and Swiss Chard.” Sounds tasty, right? Totally. Anyways, here is the picture of the meal that is included with the e-mail:

IIRC the things that got deleted were: a hateful racist “comic” LSJ posted (and the resulting bitching, even an only somewhat related subthread where I told him to fuck off), an image of the cover to a porn movie (Big Sausage Pizza 19 or something like that), and a gif showing way too much boobage.

Given a choice...

I’ll always go Xbox. I prefer the 360 controllers over the PS3 by a margin that is so big, as to be infinite. Plus, the Xbox exclusives have been better (that I’ve played) AND Xbox has had a bunch of DLC that has been delayed or unavailable on PS3.

If you try to take personal taste out of the equation since that is so varied by individual, I think you would find that both consoles have a pretty varied and successful list of exclusives.

Absolutely

But I personally like the Xbox exclusives more, I like its controller more and it has a much better history of exclusive and/or timed DLC.

I think I’ve always been super clear as to why I prefer games on the Xbox, when they are multiplatform, and why I prefer the Xbox overall.

Not sure why you are making this a thing.

Maybe I misread but I read it initially as though you were saying the 360 had the better catalog of exclusives.

Drawing a conclusion on a system’s exclusives based on the few titles an individual has played seems odd (like if I said PS3 has better exclusives that I can see because I didn’t think Halo and GoW are as good as Uncharted and Resistance).

I would be interested to see a comparison between the two systems based on sales of exclusives though. I’ll have to see if there is something out there like that.

I was very very annoyed with the storyline...

So I cruised out to the wild. My horse got killed by a goddamn cougar (with absolutely zero warning it was there), and when I tried to find/steal another horse, things went haywire, so I was like, “fuck it,” and I sold it.

There was one super awesome aspect of the game though – if you killed enough and your morality went to zero, when you whistled for the horse, it would say something like, “You are too evil and your horse no longer responds to your call. You have summoned a Dark Horse.” and this black horse with all these scars would show up.

My mom decided she needed an iPad2 not too long ago, so my parents (who are total impulse buyers) went out and got her one. Before that, they didn’t really have laptops or anything, so my dad’s non-work time on the internet was limited. When they got the iPad, though, he somehow stumbled across a few websites explaining different memes to him and showing the kind of .gifs that we use here for trolls and “u mad” and things like that. He thinks it makes him hip to try and use things like “u mad” in actual conversation with me.

Could you survive for almost a week on a diet that heavy on cheese? We were in the Savoy region, where they do a really good job with stronger cheeses that resemble…Swiss? Even as a lover of cheese, I about reached my limit after the 4th day.

So I was out of the GDTs last night for a while playing Civ V.

Played my first game on whatever is the second-highest difficulty level. Almost from the beginning, I was in a near-constant state of warfare with at least 2 of the 7 other major civilizations. I could not get those fuckers to leave me alone, and building land units constantly made me fall behind in other areas. They were just relentless.

After I finished playing Civ III,

I stopped playing PC games for a long time. I was spending way too much time playing them. I stuck to console games for years and missed out on Civ IV and V.

Then in May, Perfect Zero had to go and tell me that they made a Europa Universalis III, and I ordered it later that night. Since then I have put in about 80 hours on it. After I finish it, I think I will need to stop playing PC games again, or my wife might shoot my PC.

War doesn't have any effect

It’s adding cities and population. Plus conquered cities stay in “revolt” for something like 10 turns after you capture them, so they can’t/don’t build anything and they generate extra unhappiness.

My single biggest problem with Civ V:

If I load up near the border of another civilization, they can basically say “Hey, what’s up with those units all up on my shit?” and you either have to declare war or tell them that you’re just passing through, which means when you DO declare war, you get negative diplomatic consequences with everyone.

2 things: I hate that the statement “We’re just passing through” never falls off, and WHY CAN’T I DO THAT WHEN OTHER CIVS LOAD UP ON MY BORDER?

One thing they obviously coded in very recently is that the AI will make bullshit research agreement proposals.

As in it will offer you a research agreement (which costs you money up front to accept) and then declare war on you the following turn. You spent the money the last turn, but the agreement is canceled when they declare war.

I gotta say, fucking dwarves a little bitches. They have to get a wizard and a hobbit to do all the hard dirty work. All they do is be greedy and get in trouble with elves and spiders and dragons and then when the going gets tough, they’re all like “Come on, Bilbo, do something already!” And then Bilbo does something, Thorin banishes him because he’s a greedy fuck!

Sure, they finally come up big when the battle starts, but for the most part, I’m not impressed with the motivations and gumption of the dwarves. They don’t even win without Boern and Bard. Fucking dwarves….

The NCAA investigation has now stretched into its tenth month, leaving Auburn and SEC officials chastened. In SanDestin at the SEC spring meetings, Florida SEC Commissioner Mike Slive told me that there was no doubt the NCAA’s timeframe often conflicted with the immediacy of media coverage. That dichotomy, between media coverage of allegations and tangible proof of wrongdoing, leaves programs dwelling in a perpetual cloud of impropriety. Often that cloud can impact recruiting, a point that was driven home to me by Tennessee football coach Derek Dooley in SanDestin. Indeed, it was Dooley’s questioning of the NCAA investigator in SanDestin that led to Chizik’s insistence on whether the NCAA had completed its investigation.

pretty much the only imporant part:
As part of the latest round of investigation in Montgomery, Thurnes conducted interviews with Montgomery businessmen with relationships to Auburn University. Reached for comment by outkickthecoverage.com multiple individuals who spoke with Thurnes declined comment. Those interviews dealt with the NCAA’s continuing probe of Cam Newton, but also focused on allegations levied on HBO’s Real Sports by former Auburn player Stanley McClover. McClover told HBO that he’d been paid to play football for Auburn. The NCAA investigating McClover’s claims is interesting because typically the NCAA statute of limitations on collegiate wrongdoing is four years. McClover last played at Auburn in January of 2006, but the NCAA reserves the right to expand the statute of limitations if there is a connection or pattern of wrongdoing.

Seven minutes later…

No. Not sure how to find out.

Maybe you should just not eat or drink anything for a couple days. Then dye some broth w/ bright pink dye and see what happens. If you have pink shit, I was wrong.

DirecTV is so much cheaper than the only cable provider our apartment will allow.

I’m not sure why I’m surprised. I ran in to the exact same story years ago.

Which provider?

I realize why places have sole cable providers but it still sucks.

Because apartment complexes are assholes.

TWC (a.k.a. Grande, etc): Can we give you a 10% chunk of cable sales here if you give us exclusivity?
Apartment: Why not?
