Broke and stuffed, but it was an interesting Thanksgiving.

I call this picture "A Temporary Monument to the Arrogance of Man."

You just need to pull the skin tight and take your time and go slow. If your nerves about it go get some Nair. Just don't leave it on to long or you'll burn the biscuits.

Problem with Nair is it's hard to keep it confined, so you end up melting off half your pubes.  If you're going for the infant look, it's good.

Conditioner on the target areas, hit them 2 or 3 times with a Mach 3, you're good for 72 hours.

Agreed but it sounds like yotsuya HaRuMaN is nervous about the Sweeney Todd factor.

I love this community, my man Slippyblade gave me extreme bro pricing on an untested ST-V motherboard.  I bit the bullet and ordered an expensive ass cart from Sophia Corp in Japan, who by the way is an awesome SHMUP seller if you're willing to drop massive coin.

Grabbed some multi bios off eBay and fired it up today... guess what...

Found out that Castlevania SOTN can be had for $10 on the XboxOne. Already have Crissaegrim and am dicing my way through the upside down castle like a beast. A BEAST.

Never understood the appeal of that game.  It's Super Metroid, only not as good because the weapons are weird.  I think mostly having to play as Alucard instead of a Belmont is what killed it for me.  imho castlevania peaked at Super Castlevania IV.  I keep meaning to give it a second chance and try to play through again, but there are so many games, movies, arguments, ect.... who has the time.

Since you like it, good on you for finding a deal on it.

It is truly a wonder of our modern times that has given us the reality of placing 3 or more people in a room and revealing one to be an eskimo once the topic of cold weather comes up. 

Why were you exiled from the igloo village? 

Did the frozen ones not understand your love for that ice bear?

Never understood the appeal of that game.  It's Super Metroid, only not as good because the weapons are weird.

Hundreds of weapons and items, multiple endings, multiple playable characters, transformations ,  special moves, items with special moves, an entire extra castle, optional "familiars", bosses bigger than the screen, etc.

Not sure how the weapons are weird, like the rune sword spelling out Verboten? Doesn't sound weirder than Samus rolling up into a ball.  I loved Super Metroid so I wont be saying anything bad about it, but I will say I liked SotN better. I still have my original PSX disc. If you think CV peaked at SCV4, you've missed a ton of GREAT CV games especially the trilogy on GBA.


back on topic, chuffed I got Mighty Number Nine for $2.97 . Its worth $3, but its no MegaManX

I've been on the fence about buying a snow blower for years and finally got one last month.
Every time I look at the upcoming weather, I feel disappointed that my purchase is not yet justified.

I like it in theory, until I start to play it.  I dunno, the controls just weren't tight enough for me or something.  Then again all Castlevania games have been plagued with odd controls.... except for Castlevania IV of course, it's perfect.  All of those extra things you mentioned... that's part of the problem.  Metroid only gives you what you need to keep you focused on the task at hand.  SOTN, not so much.  I'll remind you all that SOTN originally didn't sell well, so I'm not the only one that was thrown off by it.   Like I said, I intend to give it a second chance later on.

I got pissed it was never released in English on the Sega Saturn, so I totally skipped that one.  The GBA games were alright but I got bored 2/3s of the way through.  The weird one with the mirrors and constant companion on DS was dullsville.

The only one that I've liked in quite some time was the xbox 360 Lords of Shadow reboot.  It's very underrated.  Now it's sequel... that's crap.  I trudged through it just for the story and turns out it wasn't even good for that... it just... ends.  I hadn't felt that ripped off since the nes days.

Nah, man, we only clear the shelves of milk when a category 4 hurricane is about to nail us.  And people are super defensive about it!  Afterwards, I joked at a staff meeting about how, "that milk will come in real handy when the power goes out" and you'd have thought I'd shot someone's dog. 

That's alright, according to them, I'm the one that "over-reacted," but hey, I spent a week in a hot tub on sunny days up in Oklahoma sipping on local wine while Houston sat in ankle deep water for a week.
