    I had armorer as one of my main skills, so that wasn't much of a problem for me. Favorite enchantment: make a 100% chameleon armor set (edit: actually, enchanting clothes is a better idea here since they basically have no weight). Though it kind of breaks the game, because there is literally nothing anyone can do to kill you.

    I keep armorer as a main skill just because it's something you can level up at will.

    I was disappointed in the Glass armor in Oblivion because I loved how it looked in Morrowind.

    One of my friends bought a crappy reproduction katana for $40 at a market. It broke pretty soon after when he used it to make a sandwich.

    If your sandwich bread has become petrified, to the point that it can break steel...at that point I'd consider buying a new loaf.

    The metal itself didn't break, the handle just fell off.

    Yeah, the game kind of lost its fun when I had a 100% chameleon ring. I think I ended up dropping it in some lava somewhere, it seemed fitting.

    Well, that's when you use a Wiimote for a replacement handle and get it posted on Kotaku for 5.5 nanoseconds of quasi-fame.

    When I was a kid, I used to play live action warcraft with my cousins and some of the neighborhood kids. We would gather gold (rocks from the neighbor's landscaping), wood (which we actually used to build fortifications), and create various weapons (axes, bows ...shit that we literally could have killed/maimed ourselves with at any moment). At one point we had even tilled some land and planted corn for our "farms" with seeds that we had pilfered from my grandmother.

    God, I don't know what I was on back then.

    e: People wonder if kids emulate things they see in games sometimes. I sure as fuck did. My cousin and me used to beat the piss out of each other after playing Street Fighter or watching a particularly dramatic episode of Dragonball Z. I was always armed in my backyard. I had a couple of accidents with traps we had set that could have hurt/killed me (bricks falling from decent heights, triggered by trip wires, etc)

    I think that when I get a car it will either be a Camry or an Accord. Also I've been looking at the Ford Fiesta just because it seems like a crazy economical car for a single person.

    The Fiesta is apparently a great car. Also, it looks damn good.

    Also, why do I like Oblivion so much. I am so critical of this game and yet I can't stop myself from playing it at least a few hours on the weekends.

    of course the shit ugly blue button always ruins it a little, but it's still a great looking small car

    Everyone knows that American cars are doodoo boxes with wheels. American trucks on the other hand, are badass harbringers of testosterone and anti-terrorism.

    who the hell designed the Ford logo?
    who thought cursive writing in a blue oval was a good design for a car company?
    did the designer think he was designing for Ford Frozen Foods?

    I mean, what else do we have that looks good?

    And I'm not saying everyone else has masterpieces- normal Toyota and Lexus, Renault, Nissan and Infiniti, have boring ass logos. Fiat's is even uglier than Ford's. Neither Ferrari's nor Lamborghini's are anything to write home about either. But BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagen, Mitsubishi- all pretty solid stuff

    Man, I have been staring at a blank piece of paper for hours. I know I should be drawing something. ANYTHING.

    I've spent so much time thinking about what the most effective thing for me to study next would be that I have wasted an entire evening.

    Obviously my hands need more work. I mean, I could draw them clasped together, doing about a million things, and maybe I should. Maybe I could do another page of hands tomorrow. But damn it's getting kind of boring. I don't want to burn myself out.

    Anyone know how to make these "stamps" I hear about in the sculpting world? To be more specific, I was looking for various methods of sculpting scales for dragons and what not, and I'm having trouble finding any that don't look cheesy. But I did see a lot of people mention just using some stamping method, but not go in to an detail on how to make a stamp.

    Hi eveybody. Been off the grid for a week and a bits, my wife gave birth to a girl, which was also mine, according to the serious brow line.

    Anyway this is her.

    I recommend bulk packs of stimulants if one is looking to have children. Seriously though, babies that are your own are 100% cooler than other peoples, but they are hard work. Waking up at 3am to feed is all kinds of wrong.
