All I had left was the Master Predator challenge. Police Brutality is pretty easy; Natural Selection slightly less so. End of the Line is the one that gave me problems. It took me 20+ minutes to stealth the shit out of it, but I finally did it. The only achievement I've got left is the one to use every move/gadget in a single combo; my problem with that is that there's so many fucking attacks that it's hard to keep track of which ones you've used and which ones you haven't. Also haven't

First Tenacious D, then Anchorman.

Apparently ground up beetles are a common food coloring. This is both fascinating and disgusting.

I've said previously that I don't much care for horse racing; as Luck would have it horse racing is just the backdrop against which a compelling drama takes place. This was truly beautiful television; I will miss it.

So I finally got around to completing Mass Effect 3 today.

I haven't read the comics, but I do read some stuff on reddit so some of it was spoiled for me. First of all, they are finally off the fucking farm; halleluiah! Jimmy driving the RV was the most pointless death ever. I literally laughed out loud at the stupidity. I'm not really sure what Lori was so fucking pissed at, though; she all but told Rick to kill Shane, and now that he did she recoils from him? What the fuck, cunt? I also thought it was funny when Carl cried about it; seemed so

I'm not exactly sure how far I'm into the game, but based on the missions I've completed I'd wager I'm at about 80 to 85 percent complete. I'm doing all the side missions as well, so I've sunk about 23 hours or so into it so far; this is at a moderate pace on normal difficulty. I'm just going to go over some likes and dislikes in no particular order.

The numbers were quite low (even for premium cable) so I was surprised to learn that Luck had been renewed early on for a second season. To be honest the subject matter is not particularly interesting, but I find the character development and interaction to be enthralling. Anyway, they are shutting it down after their third horse death; probably the right call. In one of the early episodes (perhaps even the first) there wa

So last week Dale died. I sort of didn't like him at first, but he grew on me; his beef with Shane wasn't sustainable, though. Then this week Shane died. Looking back on the season of course it was inevitable that Rick and Shane were going to have a confrontation. To be honest I felt bad for Shane. He thought he could take better care of everyone and, let's be honest, he was right. I still believe Rick doesn't quite have the stomach to do what is necessary; granted he took down Shane, b

This was a really good movie until the end when it went all Hollywood on us. *** SPOILERS *** The guy lives and goes on a date with his therapist. Ugh. Why is it so hard to end on a downer?
