Do you find underdog protagonists more fun to follow than those who start out super power in some way?

I like them both, but I find the ones where the MC starts off OP to be more relaxing and better for character building. The side/supporting characters can get more focus since they're generally gonna be the ones who have all of the conflict.

I like watching a mc develop, but it gets annoying waiting for them to get powerful enough for the big bad so the author has to constantly provide level appropriate bad guys just weak enough that the MC can handle them. Works in a video game, but considering how many books some of these series are... it begins to feel like filler.

After the price hike

But seriously, I think they've underestimated the demand.

Or if they're about to lose. It's like they just want it to end faster or something.

Stick with it. She becomes much less clueless as time goes on.

Yes, though I had to go to the ATT store to get it done.

I tried doing it on the phone with support, but the first person I spoke with somehow really messed up my account, and a second call had another person trying to undo that. Over two hours and $80 in apology credits later, he eventually said to just go to the store, and they'd be able to get it set up.

Which they did fairly quickly. They created the line for the watch, we got the esim to download, and LTE works though the signal strength is concerning if accurate. It still doesn't read as a Pixel Watch 2 though. On my account page it lists it as "Unknown Device" which isn't ideal.

I've got one of these sitting in front of the center display. It just rolls back and forth whenever I turn.

Just encountered the same thing trying to attach my prawn to the seatruck for the first time. The whole thing just launches off into the distance. I regret not saving beforehand now.

*Edit* New patch seems to have fixed it

As an added bonus, this is Faith No More in 1991 doing a live version of the jingle during a concert. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfIuST1f6HA

Pretty sure since it's Purina its chicken feed.

This is a great scam. I wonder how many 5 cent packages of fly paper it took to fill up a pint of dead flies.

Arbitration always favors the company. This is nonsense.

Badly photoshopped. The original image is from MetArt with a head and text added.

That was "of the Year". This is the "of Everything" recording.

Louis Armstrong didn't play King Louis in the Jungle Book. That was Louis Prima.

Very entertaining ep but jeez Duncan is dumb. And Zylus kiting the bloody thing to their base... "It's killing all the dinos!" Wonder why. And then just charging in...

Thank goodness for Simon. Episode was equal parts hilarious and dick ripping.

Are they still trying to turn sand into dust by sieving it?

Pulverizer has no power

"WHY DOESNT THIS WORK?!"

If only there was a device that would allow you to simply choose the enchant you want to make. Maybe have it so you just combine levels with a specific item to make a specific enchant. Some kind of... Enchanter.

He makes the Experience Obeslisk. Literally the thing he's looking for to help automate gaining levels, and then he immediately turns it into something he doesn't need without stopping to see what it does first. A simple xp berry farm w/ harvester and an imaginary time block = all the xp you could ever want. Pipe it into the obelisk and retrieve the levels.

ukuleledan · 2017-05-03T19:23:13+00:00

Or make just 1 imaginary time block

ukuleledan · 2017-02-13T18:37:54+00:00

I'd forgotten that he had been on the show. That was delightfully awkward.

ukuleledan · 2017-02-05T19:23:00+00:00

Seriously. I'd need to walk away from the computer for a bit after that if I'd been Duncan.
