But third times a charm, I get it. You really dislike the tv show. But it sounds like you would petition this show off the air or something. Why so adamantly opposed to it? Do you really really hate it? Why/Why not? What are the redeeming qualities you see in the show, if any?

No, I wouldn't go out of my way to petition to have it removed from the air but I wouldn't be sad if it got cancelled tomorrow.

The few episodes that I have seen are enough to turn me away from the show and that's that.

I even saw a clip where they were making fun of World of Warcraft and it was off-basis and no just wrong.

I hold no loyalty to WoW anymore. I've been clean for 3 years. My level 60s were geared out with Molten Core swag. I quit before the first expansion. My gear would be useless as ****. Oh yea. My point was, I didn't notice their factual errors. I just laughed. They certainly weren't making fun of Warcraft, they're making fun of people that play Warcraft. Like us. And they do it in a friendly way. And therefore, it's funny. I think if you haven't seen more than 20 episodes, you can't judge the show. Well... 10 (half of one season out of 4 complete seasons with about 20 shows a season).

Oh, and I'd probably lose some sleep if the show went off the air already. Seeing as how it and Doctor Who are the only series I watch that are currently still running, and I haven't caught wind of any other shows I might like. Current or upcoming. I researched online for shows to watch and came up empty handed.

Emulators. I have old Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 controllers hooked up to my computer, and I have every game ever made for most of the systems in that screenshot.

I also have a few thousand old arcade games

They all came from a private torrent tracker called Underground-Gamer...

I'm picky about sitcoms so if there is an un-likeable character there is no way that I'm going to suffer through watching 10 episodes let alone 20.

The Fall TV lineup has some interesting choices that are a bit outside of the box. I don't know how long some of them will last but they are very interesting imo.

Book nerd here
I haven't even tallied my total collection but I just got 30+ new books this weekend, for under 15 bucks. Aw yeah


I found this, which is the very first David Mitchell I have come to own, despite being in love with all his books. I thought I was going to hyperventilate. It was 75 cents.

I'm also really quite fond of cameras, like any *******.
I just picked one of these up


one of the very first Polaroid cameras, from the 1950's, for 8 bucks.

I was just nostalgia-ing being an Undead Rogue, creeping through the Plaguelands, one-hit killing clothies, and sprinting away.

Anybody ever 'nostalgia' for old video game locales that you don't get to see anymore?

I miss:

Counter-Strike
cs_office
de_piranesi
cs_italy

Halo 2
Midship
Zanzibar

World of Warcraft
Tirisfal Glades
Stranglethorn Vale
Eastern Plaguelands
Arathi Basin

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
Favela
Estate
Quarry

I miss the days when I could create any character I wanted in Oblivion and do whatever I wanted. I explored that game to death. Morrowind is much better though.

Ooh, I know one that I miss. The good old Nintendo Colour Pokemon games. I remember when I caught Ho-oh on Gold. If I knew what a nerdgasm was then and would have been physically capable of having one, that would have been a time.

I'm playing Pokemon Crystal, I caught Suicune without a masterball and I'm instead going to use the masterball on Ho-oh. Man, I can' t tell you how many times I reset my game trying to get Suicune with an ultraball, it was tough.
