    if you get HBO can you get it for just a few months

    like can I buy it just during game of thrones and then cancel

    Yes

    See if you can get a trial, and then maybe they'll forget to turn it off!

    That would be good if I actually cooked at this point in my life. I don't cook now because I don't want to eat. Anything I spend time on cooking is going to be more calories than like, a protein shake with a banana in it.

    eating food

    its a thing you have to do

    But I don't have to eat enough to warrant cooking stuff.

    Make batches of stuff that keeps.

    For the last week (because Cesca's away) I've basically cooked about three things, but eaten each of them over more than one day.

    Cable people do 3 month free trials, quite often. So, you could call your provider and do that, and get it for 12ish weeks.

    Yup, but have to talk to your cable people to see for sure.

    Yeah, it's month-to-month.

    Any special pricing might require longer-term though.

    Allegedly a voice of reason.

    I can do so if I get an assault I like.

    Nah do what you want. I'm just amused that desc did that and ended up with what sounds like an unstoppeable terror machine.

    I'll name Queen Badass of Awesometonia, sniping sergeant extraordinaire after you. If you're comfortable with dark hair, buzzcut sides long on top.

    Haha, sure. That role probably approximates my skills best.

    Well actually medic would but not combat medic.

    By the way, the rest of the bitch-ass squad all ended up panicking. Except you.

    Hell yes. Maybe I will turn out psychic.

    And yeah I hate how people panic and shoot each other. Like that is sorta like in the original but not really and makes no sense. Really they should either hunker down (which they do) or take low percentage shots that eat tons of ammo or something. But not turn to the guy behind the same log as them and shoot him.

    yeah that's just... annoying to watch.¨

    having the medic get shot and the sniper freaking out and shooting the alien who shot her, fine

    shooting each other is just dumb

    when I was a kid we didnt have cable until I was in hs

    the idea of having hbo, even for a few months, seems very luxurious

  • ElkiElki get busy Moderator, ClubPA mod
    I have the best deal, so I'll never get rid of HBO. $49 (including taxes) for Comcast's highest speed internet option + basic cable with HBO. I don't get HD service, but it doesn't matter, because I just watch everything on HBO GO.

    And I also use Hulu+/Netflix, and I'd rather pay for that than HD-DVR service.

    My mom had HBO for about six months in 1991 or so. It was amazing. I watched The Hunt for Red October every day.

    Dammit I wanna learn how to make my own white balsamic apple vinaigrette so I can stop buying salads from Panera. But there are like 10 different ingredients and being a college student surviving largely on soup, I don't have any basic cooking 'greets. So I'd have to buy a whole lotta stuff to make that dressing. Boooooo.

    But it would last you a long time!

    But I'm only gonna live here for three more months and all my stuff barely fits in my car as it is!

    Invest in spices and make kickass stuff.

    I lived near a dollar store with some good spices once.

    That was fucking awesome.

    That would be good if I actually cooked at this point in my life. I don't cook now because I don't want to eat. Anything I spend time on cooking is going to be more calories than like, a protein shake with a banana in it.

    No! Everyone needs to cook!

    I am not just saying this so that if I ever visit any of you you'll be able to feed me delicious foods.

    I can make risotto. And I can grill a steak.

    Everything else is better handled by the wife.



    Not because she's a woman or anything, just so you know. She's a trained cook. She's better at it.

    I like cooking, but hate prep, so I don't much.

    I am fond of Brewdog Punk IPA but Cesca hates it with a passion.

    I found that on tap in Barcelona, although I think that was a rare thing. More likely to be bottled. Rare kegs seem to turn up like that for a lot of craft brewers

    I think they are very deliberately pushing an export-based business model. They did a thing not long ago where they were encouraging people to buy equity in the company, and it was basically to fund a push for overseas sales.

    The IPA they are definitely trying to position as a mass-market, rather than a niche or luxury, product (see: selling it in six-pack cans).

    You can always run most sports without cable as well. MLB and NHL can streamed through their own services for like 100 bucks a year. And that includes hd through like a PS3.

    Local stuff, get an antenna, stuff is still on the air that way.

    what are you asking

    I guess it just seems like leaving more things to remember in a heated situation for little benefit. Like, safety on hammer down is a necessity. Empty chamber adds needing to manipulate it way more.

    I don't really know what I'm asking though. I'm tired and should probably not be on the internet.

    My avatar looks cool with the mobile site though. I mean it's from the era when everything looked like that and I think it was better there than here. Though I still love it.

    Also I notice I did not got the cold hearted badge. On the one hand my OCD is upset, but on the other it's kinda cute that I am desirable and Valentinesy and lovesick but not cold hearted.

    oh yeah we're in agreement

    if someone feels unsafe carrying chambered they probably shouldn't carry at all, imo
