Seen as ive given up on going to the gym ive bought more weights for around the house and theyve just turned up.

Also Saints Row IV looks like an utterly fantastic protoype rip off and looks very fun.

Actually, I've been meaning to post about SRIV in one of the games' threads for a while now. I've just been too busy to do so. It is epic good fun - I don't think there are many games which manage to pull off making you feel like an awesome earth-bound deity, while not making the entire game pointless in the process.
It will probably dull a little in time, but it's pretty good right now in terms of pure FUN. Which is really why you buy a Saints Row game anyway.

(And don't throw the word "rip off" around so lightly; SRIV is excruciatingly aware of the other games and movies from which it derives features; amongst all the other pop-culture references it throws at you, it makes more than enough to its inspirations to make it more of an...homage. XD Besides, it amps everything up to 11 anyway, so it's not like it takes itself seriously. Unless doing so allows for more hilarity, of course.

Its a homage in that in some of the trailers it looks like theyve 'stolen' the guy from DE:HR skin along with his coat. Its quite another to initiate super powers and have a glide mode that looks identical to prototype along with mini boss enemies that look very similar to the hunter from prototype.

this.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

First intentional use of alcohol as a temporary stress reliever in a couple of years. If only it didn't work so well!

I remembered why I used to listen to jazz. Been spending the evening alternating between Thelonious Monk, Myles Davis and some mellow Diana Krall tunes. Stress gone, super relaxed and I love it.

I don't get this. Why would you congratulate the parents upon the news of impregnation? He basically just had sex. For all we know it wasn't very well done either. Giving birth to a child, that's hard. Raising a child into something that resembles a human being, that's hard. Impregnating a woman essentially just requires you to stick a penis in her vagine until semen spurts out. Most people even consider this seanse quite enjoyable.

It's shorthand for 'Congratulations that the lives of you and your partner are in a good enough position that you can reasonably raise a child without utterly fucking yourself', you pedantic pillock.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.
