0.5. play Borderlands 2, especially if you have DLC.

Probably one of the best things I can say about the game for you is that there are A: some nice twists in the story, some you don't expect some you half expect and B: I have yet to find any inconsistencies in the world. It all makes sense relative to each other from the visual style and gameplay to the the ****** up **** all the characters do.


Oh and shooting things in the face is good stress relief.

Well, I just placed my orders. Need to swing by the Newegg warehouse once it's ready (since there's one near my work and it's faster than shipping it), and the Amazon stuff should be in on Tuesday.

It's a legacy deck so it's definitely not slow, it can kill on turn 2. It's main issue is that it kills through 1 combo or not and all you have to protect your combo are 4 Cabal Theory which although incredibly powerful aren't that much protection on their own, especially with how fragile this deck is vs graveyard removal. A single Surgical Extraction is often enough to make it almost impossible to win for the deck and a single Deathrite Shaman can make things very difficult and many decks play the shaman because it's so insanely good.

Anyway, what you want it to do is discard and get things in the graveyard, somewhat clumsy to start off since you always want to start second. With some luck you get a Phantasmagorian to discard so you can activate it's ability, react to it by activating it's ability again allowing you to discard 6 cards. You then most likely have a dredge creature in your graveyard so next turn you can start flipping your own library into your graveyard and you can get creatures into play through Narcomoeba, Nether Shadow and Ichorid which in turn you sacrifice to flashback Dread Return to cast Balustrade Spy which in the absence of lands turns your entire deck over into your graveyard.

With your entire deck in your graveyard and a mix of the aforementioned 3 creatures and the tokens they generate through Bridge From Below you can cast more Dread Returns for Flayer Of The Hatebound and then Golgari Grave-Troll, the troll deals damage equal to it's power to an opponent and since it's probably 35/35 or stronger you oneshot your opponent.

As long as one mag is enough to bring them down.

SpoilerFreaking Banshees.

Never cut corners on the desk chair. It's the most important piece of equipment in your office.

The difference between medium-rare and medium is all in the shade of pink. Also, people who eat gray meat are doing it wrong.

Shooting things in the face? How vulgar. This is the druid thread. You're better than that. More subtle and elegant. Your victim's first question upon reaching the pearly gates should be, "WTF just happened?"

That's all I've got.

Or shoot people in the face from great distances. Best of both worlds.

Massaging / heated desk chair or gtfo.

Heated: no. Massage: probably not either. It needs to be beautiful and not uncomfortable.

This chair isn't particularly nice, but it's not particularly heinous either, so I called that a win in the end. If I refused to buy one until I found one I liked aesthetically... I'd be looking for a long time.

It's your desk chair, it's not meant to look nice - you don't want people in your office bugging the crap out of you anyway, so the uglier it is in there, the better. Especially the parts that are under your butt, so you don't have to look at them. But it has to do everything possible for your back to make up for the fact that you're a pasty-faced nerd who sits in front of a computer nearly every waking hour instead of using your spine as it was intended. (No? Just me?)

Who puts their computer under the desk? It would totally overheat. To the side, on a raised stand, and this is very important: on the opposite side of the desk from the coaster where you put your coffee mug. I am looking at you, Mr. Teacake.

It's a 50's design stripped of all paint and polished so it was never made with a computer in mind (and all the more with writing and typewriters). My point is that it's gorgeous and made to last a long, long time. That said maybe you could turn one side of drawers into just a door with space for the computer behind it, locking the PC in an all metal box probably doesn't do it's temperature much good though.

But YOU see your desk and chair every day, and you're by far the most important person in your house with regards to having things look good.

See above, it's a place where you spend a lot of time, it should look ******* fantastic to make every waking second in there just that much better. If you want to keep people out just lock the door.

Preferably not but I don't want to make aesthetic concessions for comfort either.

I'm not willing to sacrifice looks for comfort, but only if it meets a sufficient level of comfort first. If it looks freaking amazing, but it's ridiculously uncomfortable, I'm not going to buy it. But if it's sufficiently comfortable, sufficiently affordable, and not that attractive...
