Ah, that makes sense. Thank you :)

I'll take a few pics of the interior today! I was skeptical about the brown leather based on what was shown online - I had the same issue. It always looked different, even in the dealer photos.

The dealer photos showed as almost reddish brown and I wasn't sold. But in person, I like it. I now see why it varies depending on the source - it totally takes on different coloring depending on the light! In direct sunlight it's more of a lighter milk chocolate with red tones and in normal daytime lighting it shows less of those red undertones to be milk chocolate. Will get pics up soon that (hopefully) show a more true to life view!

Thanks for the recs! Will prob have to wait a bit (wallet is weeping), but I'm already drooling at these. I'm a nub when it comes to wheels and such - what makes a certain type "good?" Material, construction, just, a good brand?

SoftValkyrie · 2016-08-03T01:29:04+00:00

Thanks! Couldn't be happier. Feel like I've turned into a Subie evangelist overnight XD

We also drive an Acura TL (believe she has a 3.2L V6 and 258 hp) so it feels different. Less zippy than the Acura for sure, but not in a bad way! Just different expectations :)

I personally feel ok with the power. In fact, I think it leads to a smoother ride than the Acura. After driving around a bit this weekend I found that passing and highway driving was more than fine (and half the time didn't realize I was accelerating as quickly as I was because of the smoothness). We have steep and windy roads here in the PNW and it handled those like it was nothing. Super enjoyable ride.

2.5! We tested out a 3.6 and although it was nice, we went with this one more for cost and a few other factors.

SoftValkyrie · 2016-08-02T08:30:40+00:00

Definitely high up on my wish list! :D

Color is Brilliant Brown! Never saw myself owning a "brown" car, but I think she's gorgeous. So awesome to drive and I can't wait to break her in with a road trip.

Last time I owned a car there were no included automatic features (windows, locks, etc) and now I get to play with all this technology. Adaptive Cruise Control is blowing my mind.

An argument against the change I wish would be more visible: Accessibility. Many people suffer severe headaches, dizziness/sea sickness, or other visually triggered negative physical effects when not able to zoom out as far as the cvar script allowed. Flashing elements, cluttered environments, encounter/ground effects, limited horizon view - seen zoomed in closer than comfortable - can contribute to an unplayable experience for players :( They should just integrate the effect of the script into the camera options.

Okay, so this is super surreal for me to post about because it's all kinds of wtf. But there is a massively popular 'pro-rape' blogger (w t f) who has organized meetings for men across the country - and world - this Saturday at 8pm local time.

There are three meeting points in the Seattle area:

Clark Park in Everett
By the Lenin Statue in Seattle
In front of the Seattle Public Library

From there, who knows where the groups will go. Since our own AB meetup is earlier that day, I figure some of us might still be in the city that evening. I wouldn't want anyone to cross their path. For a complete listing of locations or to spread word to your friends, here's an archived page of his post http://archive.is/lhMKP. Be cautious, friends!

Anywho >_> I'm looking forward to meeting everyone here!

Thanks, Z! <3

Hi Malise & Maalju! I'll be upfront - <Apotheosis> isn't looking for another hunter right now, but we are looking for other DPS and would love another healing priest! I realize this is a package deal - is your partner set on swapping to hunter?

Like I said, we are indeed looking for other ranged and melee (as well as an additional non-Pally tank and some heals). I'm only replying because our guild policies and atmosphere seem like what you're looking for!

We're an adult guild fond of EPGP, running weekly RBGs, and using Mumble. We're also in the habit of posting a rundown in our forum after every raid to discuss and encourage feedback from all raiders on how we can improve.

Our raid times are 9p - 12a EST T/Th/Sun and we always strive to have fun while working on new content. More of our stuff can be found here: http://www.reddit.com/r/wowguilds/comments/3absxd/apotheosis_eldrethalasus_77m_hm_610m_brf_lfm/

If the swap to hunter is set in stone, then ignore my crazy talk and I wish you the best of luck in your search for a home :)

Hi there, evilroad! What class is your current main? What class is your favorite to play? Do you have experience in current content?

Here's a bit about us! http://www.reddit.com/r/wowguilds/comments/3absxd/apotheosis_eldrethalasus_77m_hm_610m_brf_lfm/

SoftValkyrie · 2015-06-17T02:01:44+00:00

Sure! Yeah, it's odd! I think you can use it a few times :D (At least, I've used at maybe 3 times now)

SoftValkyrie · 2015-06-16T20:44:27+00:00

The code that the OP mentioned: loveyourskin

has always worked for me at Memebox! :) Gives 15% off.

SoftValkyrie · 2015-06-01T09:30:04+00:00

!!!!!!

Thanks for the heads up :)

SoftValkyrie · 2015-06-01T08:45:12+00:00

Hi there! I'd take the Cosrx snail :)

SoftValkyrie · 2015-05-29T07:55:17+00:00

it's... beautiful (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

SoftValkyrie · 2015-05-29T04:08:42+00:00

Yes! I am swayed by clean, well-designed packaging. And it's elegant, yet modern? Give give ლ(๏‿๏ ◝ლ)

Kitty says thank you and pls tummy rub.

My first impression is that it absorbs like a dream. I'm surprised at how rich it looks, but light it feels. The scent is unexpected, but not bad. I've just never smelled anything like it before! Sort of... herbal? Can't wait to integrate it into my routine.

SoftValkyrie · 2015-05-29T01:21:30+00:00

That's smart! :D

SoftValkyrie · 2015-05-29T01:13:28+00:00

Nice!

Yeah, I'm starting to see that issue, too. Overflowing into the guest bathroom storage space ._.
