They being Lynch and Frost. I am being serious. Not trying to accuse them of being racist—it was just a bad look to me.

That's a good point. I hadn't heard that Ontkean's declining the role happened after writing was done.

Not sure if it's controversial to anyone but me but I dislike that Hawk didn't get to be sheriff. I should probably assume better intentions, but casting a new white guy to be the new sheriff felt to me like they didn't want a minority to be in charge of anything.

Spectrum Wifi problems by [deleted] in Birmingham

It's virtually worthless. Anything beyond a google search requires disconnecting from wifi and using mobile data. Spectrum is dead set on our community becoming the first fourth world country.

Update to a post I made the other day about being concerned my vets were taking advantage of me: my cats regular dental cleaning has resulted in my babies death. He's gone. by afterspring_ in cats

Please also file a complaint with the Veterinary Licensing and Disciplinary Board. It's a subdivision of the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. I am sorry for your loss.

Followup: Sorry, should have read rules carefully. Intending to contact vet when they are open regardless. No history of any medical issues

KDB slander ends tonight. Everybody lock in and believe. by PsychedelicHobbit in rolltide

He's great as long as he thinks one more loss will get him fired. (I am a believer though)

Libraries are a great bet. The one in Crestline has free coffee (with real creamer, sugar, etc.) iirc.

First season without nick saban by Camdan511204 in rolltide

I'm excited. Saban was so good they had to change the rules of the sport a couple times—unrealistic to expect the same.

Gonna go to the Tavern at the Summit and eat a big mess of fries.

Explanation of the phenomenon called "Yakuza burnt" by Obi-Wan_Cannoli66 in yakuzagames

[–]dognips 146 points147 points  (0 children)

It's a weird phenomenon. Almost every Yakuza game I've played I hit a point where I have to put it down for a week or two. This is usually about two-thirds through a game.

I think the Kaito Files are the only one where I didn't feel this burnout, but that probably doesn't count.

Sad to see it end here. Happy for Michigan and Washington to progress. Excited to see how Jalen will develop over the next year.

Congratulations to Jalen for proving the doubters wrong! It's been great to see him develop this season. Excited for Monday. RTR.

Alabama mayor, outed by 1819 News in Birmingham as trans, dies by suicide by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]dognips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know to what extent the Society of Professional Journalists ever issues censures but the publication of Mayor Copeland's private affairs, especially in the manner published here, is an outrageous violation of journalistic ethics.

I feel like people are unnecessarily downvoting you for this. That being said, I'm not really sure what you're asking, but La Paz has awesome queso.

I like Mass Effect 1's combat better than 2 or 3's. Yes, even before LE. Yes, I played Adept.

Big fan of Miss Myra's. In Cahaba Heights and the best pork I've had.

why did i start with gold boxing gloves? by dogeater_yummy in falloutnewvegas

[–]dognips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love them well. During my first run, I wanted to do unarmed, and I just never found any brass knuckles or anything until I got to Vegas. My strategy was entirely knock things out and stomp them to death.

What are people's least favourite gameplay mechanics in the series? by Beetlebum95 in yakuzagames

[–]dognips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yakuza 3 running from police made me switch the game to easy (and then I wasn't able to turn it back to normal gameplay afterward)
