OK. I have finished Call of Duty: WW2. Dragon Age: The Veilguard is still on sale for 65% off, so I went ahead and got it. Installing now but won't start playing it till tomorrow.

I would if I could, but it appears the entire Call of Duty series relies on single auto save checkpoints. Once it saves, you can’t go back to an earlier checkpoint. I don’t like it, especially when I have to restart a) because of a stupid glitch and b) because every mission starts with an...

So they've come and dug up part of my driveway. Turns out it's a bigger issue than they first thought. There's a blockage upstream somewhere, but they can't see it with the cameras from this end, so they're going to have to go upstream and look down. Apparently, the leak has been bubbling away...

What's frustrating is that you can't revert to a previous autosave. For instance, right now the game has autosaved with me stuck on a mortar. I literally can't move. I even killed myself with a grenade and I just restarted stuck on the mortar. So now I have no choice but to restart the whole...

This game autosaves at some really awkward moments, like right before I'm discovered during a stealth mission, meaning I have to start the whole friggin' mission over again. Really sucks. I'll play through the whole campaign and then probably never play it again.

OK I'm enjoying CoD: WW2 overall, but I really don't like that I can't manually save. Wanted to get the no damage achievement on D-Day, but having to restart from the cut scene at the beginning every time is a pain in the butt. Now I'm on the "stop the train" mission, and I'm having trouble not...

I can still remember hanging out with one of my older cousins once. We were playing a board game and had the radio on. I must have been a preteen at the time. Angel in the Centerfold came on, and I was happily, ignorantly singing along, and my cousin was like, "Don't sing along to that! Don't...

There are comments in the YouTube thread suggesting it's an impressionist rather than the real Tolkien, but the sentiment is still spot on. I wouldn't be surprised if Tolkien did say something like that (or at least thought it).

I know these memes are mostly just for fun, but it always kind of irks me when people come up with "easier" ways to destroy the ring. The main reason Frodo and Sam had to do it is because they're small and "unimportant" and could sneak through Sauron's defenses without him noticing. Sauron...

Here's the next one:

I think that's one where I didn't really listen to the lyrics that closely until I got older.

Where would you place Baby It’s Cold Outside? I honestly can’t listen to that one anymore now that I’m aware of its implications.

It does not actually!

I don't think so. The Upside Down mirrors Hawkins at a specific point in time. It doesn't change as Hawkins changes. It was like a snapshot of a specific point in time and the two have now diverged. One thing that I find weird is how they call it the Upside Down, but it only seems to be...

It doesn't really. I don't know why I said that. Besides, they appear to have retconned Holly's age so she's now 9 or 10, so she'd have to have been born in the 70s. The Wheelers are no longer quite so close a fit to my family as they previously were.
