> Force feeding a wounded kitten who keeps struggling and crying is possibly the most heartwrenching thing I’ve ever done :frowning:

I know the feeling. One of our cats had her kittens in our burnpile, and we didn’t find out until we lit it and heard kittens mewing from inside. We got them all out before they were burned up, but eventually all but two died from smoke inhalation and burns. We put a lot of effort into trying to save them, but it was too much for them:(
Those two that survived will always be special to me.

Anyway, how’s it going, OT? I just got back from an overnight backpacking trip up by Mt. Hood, so I’m a bit behind and trying to catch up.

Believe me, I’d keep it a secret. Although people will suspect something is up when I ditch my two-story house for a beachside mansion…

What about money bushes? Easier to conceal…

You know what question I hate?

“Why don’t you play basketball?”

As if I’m not living up to my potential. As if being tall gives you innate basketball skills. As if you have an automatic passion for the sport if you’re tall.

Now there’s an idea. Become a scientist.

Haha… I’ve seen this happen all too often.

And even funnier, my friend who is one of the 5 shortest people in our grade has been one of the best basketball players I know.

Exactly. Height is an advantage for sure, but it doesn’t make you automatically beast at basketball.

I just hate the awkward faces when I tell people “no, I don’t play basketball.”

I’m friends with two short people who kick -Yoink- in Basketball. One is my brother.

If i had a gift card (all you need is the code, i believe), i’d give it to you, b/c I personally don’t use them. That’s mostly b/c of my rewards account and using the points to get major discounts, even money off.

Anyhow, wild wild day for me again. Gonna probably hit the theater and watch November Man or Expendables 3.

EDIT: looks left and right Where’d everyone go? Kinda lonely in here after I posted, :frowning:

That is really sweet Riot, but even if you did I don’t think I would accept.

For those unsure on what console to play Destiny, buy it on last-gen and get current-gen for free. Why not both?

This is great news for those who don’t have a current-gen console yet. I recall game progress being able to be transferred over as well, but not sure to what extent.

Anyone else here think that the closer some people are to each other, the less they can live without fighting?

I have decided to stop interventing to sort it out, its pointless.

What is wrong?

So Batman’s voice, or Rorschach’s voice?

SWEAR TO ME!

Is anyone else having connectivity issues with H4? I keep getting disconnected from it every couple minutes but I can play Reach without a disconnection.

Just bought Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark. The campaign (the Cybertron one, not that movie nonsense) is pretty good, and Escalation is now a lot more fun now that it’s actually possible to beat solo. I just wish we could have the option to play as our custom multiplayer Transformers. That would make it perfect in my eyes.

I just want High Moon to make a proper Fall of Cybertron sequel. A truly dedicated effort to make the game all that it can be. Activision would be foolish not to give them the chance.

Yeah, too bad that stinking Advanced Warfare had to get in their face. :frowning:

Exactly. Activision could have found a…“lesser studio.”
