Homemade ranch (or at least, mixed up on site for restaurants) can be really good. There’s a bar near me that serves a great ranch with their buffalo wings. The thick, globby stuff in the bottles is never lives up to expectations.
- Comment on Borderlands 4′s New $30 Expansion Pack Isn’t Winning Over Fans 5 days ago:
Yep. I remember I bought the GOTY edition of the first for $5 during a Steam Sale on a whim. Meanwhile, BL4 is $130 for the “Super Deluxe Editon” to get all the DLC. Even the current 30% off sale brings it to $90.99. It’s insane. Probably one doomed to remain on my wishlist for many years.
I’d rather just replay BL2 with a new character type.

I’d expect anyone in this unit to do the same for me!
- Comment on Is school cafeteria food in America trash? 1 week ago:
At least anecdotally, we’re on the other side and almost never see kids bring food beyond things like allergies and such.
Our state also pays for all kids to get breakfast and lunch as part of their education. The only thing lunch accounts are for anymore is à la carte items in the high schools. No “reduced” lunch bologna sandwich shaming. It’s great.

- Comment on What games are you picking up March 19th? 2 weeks ago:
Nothing specifically I’m looking for, but if the price is right I might pull the trigger on a few of my wishlist items, and then probably browse the store to add other things to it. I’ve got a ridiculous backlog of games, so there’s not a lot of motivation to pick up new stuff, but the sales tend to highlight stuff I wouldn’t normally search out or encounter randomly on the store, so I enjoy that aspect. Found a lot of very entertaining games that way.

While I agree that YouTube should be monitored, you’re making the same comment as someone in the 80s talking about cartoons on TV.

- Comment on Is £70 becoming harder to justify? The rise of cheaper blockbuster games 5 weeks ago:
Only game I’m immediately paying full price for is HL3. Everything else gets added to a Steam wishlist, where it sits until the price drops enough. For example, the oldest game addition on my wishlist was added in July 2012.
I don’t buy anything that costs more than $5. Spending more than $10 is exceedingly rare. If that game never drops that far, so be it. I’ve got plenty of other games to play or revisit in the meantime.

I don’t, either, but it’s in the screenshot for the guillotine entry in the screenshot. Trying to be funny. Although it is kinda because I love death metal and that does plausibly sound like a band name in that genre.

I keep telling my InfoSec department if no one can sign into their computer, it’s the most secured environment they’ll ever have, but for some reason they don’t think it is as funny as I do.

I don’t disagree that the taxi industry needed a good shaking, and Uber/Lyft have brought a lot of convenience and features to the party compared to a traditional taxi service, but that doesn’t automatically make Uber the good guys in the equation.

It is funny how 40 in the fall sees most folks bundling up with everything they have, and 40 the spring is shorts and sandals weather.
I don’t stop wearing shorts until it’s about 0F out or the wind is insane. Not to like shovel the driveway or anything being out for extended periods, but going out shopping or whatever is fine. Today was 0 with a -20 windchill and I went out in shorts, a sweatshirt, and a baseball cap.

- Comment on Why do I push people away if I'm so lonely? 2 months ago:
I would recommend starting by joining a group around a topic you’re interested in. Local climbing club or anime group or sports enthusiasts or gaming clan or whatever. Something in person. Use that group to practice social skills and learn body cues with topics you’re already familiar and confident with, and that in turn will help you branch out to other topics when you’re ready with the same level of communication.
It is a learned skill, and it takes time, but if you never take the time to learn it, then it will always feel foreign to you. Does that make sense? Like so many things in life, you have to get past the fear to get to the reward. That can be difficult, and you might get hurt when you put yourself out there, but I believe if you keep with it, and you’re determined to make a change, you can absolutely overcome anything and find a social group that complements you.
Good luck, friend. You can do it. We believe in you.

- Comment on How do I deliver an American eBay package to my hotel? 2 months ago:
That’s the idea. But definitely check with the hotel if they will accept and how long they’ll hold it for. Some hotels only accept guest packages for a few days before their check-in; they’re usually not going to want to hold it for a week or two. Maybe something you can work on with the seller to time the shipment appropriately?
