The Letting Off Steam Thread

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

Probably ridiculously. The number of people just in my field that wanted to work in Pro Sports was ridiculous in undergrad, i can only imagine its the same way everywhere.


Yeah, I think no point applying =]


Didn't say that. If its not too big of a clusterfuck you might as well give it a go, i just wouldnt put your eggs all in that basket.

Haha... it's pretty much a Plan Z for me. Just something to the side really... maybe they will like it that I will have a law degree as well as economics major in my arts degree.

I have a new guilty pleasure.
After watching that latest South Park episode, I was like, ah what the heck, I'm giving Jersey Shore a try.
I'm hooked. I flew threw the first season and half of the second one on the weekend.
The cast is actually much more likable than I thought, and it's pretty hilarious at times, too.

Just wanted to share.

That's it buzzy, you're on my NLSC Hate List from now on. :shake:



Rant: Who knew designing a production plant would be so much work. Guess I have to start living off instant noodles again to save money to offset wasting it in internet shops just to look for needed info online. I'm too tired to properly let out some anger/steam.

Bullshit GM first traded Chandler to Kings, now Tyrus Thomas is traded to Wolves for '10 1st round pick.

I was so fucking excited today.
Finished exams for the year, went and bought Fallout New Vegas thinking I'd be up all night playing it.
Came home from basketball and have spent the last 55minutes installing Fallout. So far, Steam has been installing for the ENTIRE TIME and is only 55%.

I dont even know what steam is. I dont fucking want Steam, I want Fallout. This is the biggest load of shit I have ever come across in my life...

Its not even installing, its an update. A fucking update, off a CD, is taking 55minutes to get fucking halfway.

Cancel it, and start over. Steam is updating from the net, and can lock up some times.

even better, apparently the PC version doesn't save properly and deletes any save games you have unless you do some complicated workaround thing...
jesus fucking christ, first COD and now Fallout? Why the fuck can't developers just not screw with PC games when they fucking work fine in the first god dam fuck off place

First rage steam in a while too.....I hate it when people post stuff about their family members dieing or something....its so depressing and makes steam like Lax's seem dumb.


So my uncle is having bypass surgery right now after a heart "episode" on Monday (fuckin love HMOs)
