If your wife takes the time to prepare and cook you supper, you make a great deal of it and appreciate the time and effort it took, but maybe like, days later, you find a casual way to mention something that could be improved, eg. "it's funny, but mom always used a LOT of fresh basil, and I kinda loved it", but be casual about it. If the nanny is a super good cook, you wanna downplay that to your wife -- it's not rocket science.

Just out of curiosity, are we talking a simple marinara, an alla puttanesca, or what?

I listen to both, but I find I enjoy the Beastcast more because those guys (with the exception of Alex haha) seem to find more joy in things and I really enjoy the comedy, whereas the Bombcast tends to spend a lot more time focusing on the negatives these days, and I just started to find it would leave me feeling a bit worn down to listen to 3 hours of mostly complaining. There were also a few episodes where they basically covered the same topics, and each time I found the Beastcast guys had done more research or had more insightful takes on the subject (eg. the chameleon debacle). Also, Jeff Bakalar and Vinny are fucking hilarious together. Bombcast needs a reboot or something; I like Brad a lot, but I think they need a host with a little more energy/focus -- I find Vinny does an amazing job of knowing when to let things go on and when to put a pin in a conversation, where Bombcast seems to let dead air decide when to move on from a topic. This is just my stupid opinion, though, and I think my sense of humour just lines up more with those guys, but I sure do love Jeff G when he's fired up. Contrasting a current Bombcast ep with an episode from the Ryan-era is night and day, and Beastcast feels more in that old vein to me.

This messageboard is the worst.

Hell yeah, I do.

Hahaha wow, glad I saw this. Big plans to finally dig into AC3 tonight, but damn, that's a lot of bugs!

That was so fuckin awesome

Whoa man, I felt the same way about Skyward Sword and Darksiders, and you've done a good job articulating what I enjoyed about Dark Souls. Good post!

Born and bred in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, and have an embarrassingly limited understanding of French. I had mandatory French classes from grade 6 to grade 9, but it was super basic stuff that has mostly been forgotten.

Grinding in Dark Souls was a lot of fun for me, because even though it was largely to gain souls / level up weapons, I was constantly improving my technique and learning more about enemies' weaknesses, etc. That was the only game I ever enjoyed grinding in that I can think of!
