is at home.

Re-watching Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex: 2nd GiG. I had seen the ending a few years ago, but missed the whole story arc. Was able to get a copy of the entire series from a buddy. After this, I'll binge watch Karakai Jozu no Takagi-san then move onto something heavier (Psycho-Pass sounds nice lol).

Has beef with Miyamoto (I think that's who he was referring to).

This kinda chess? Because I'm getting brain cramps just looking at the field. @Etrurian emperor: It even got compared to a scene from The Simpsons—the very episode that predicted a Trump presidency, at that (can't link to any Twitter pics, or tweets, for that matter, while at work lol)

My apologies. I nominate @Dragoncat then, out of whim (and I flip for anyone that had played Spyro).

I respectfully nominate @Purple Mage.

And he still has that smug, pompous look. Ugh.

The story of politics in the Philippines for more than a decade now LOL. But I'm veering off track. on topic: The G7 pics are definitely amusing (and meme-able).

Howdy.

"Let's see...I tap this, and the Home button..and...WTF?! where did that forest go?"

Xander and his black blade look very, very similar to Elric of Melnibone (the pale skin is a giveaway), one of the characters from Michael Moorcock's Eternal Champion fantasy novels. Then again, Elric's sword Stormbringer was more powerful than one would imagine--it's a sentient blade that saps the soul of friend and foe alike.

RIP indeed. Great writer and chef. He'll be chugging San Miguel Pale Pilsens and munching on sisig wherever he is.

I lol'd. Seriously. Pulled red from the stance banner and got...Lon'qu. Welp, Glimmer/Vantage fodder.

@Jingle Jangle: Looks solid. Makes me regret merging my Black Knight to the existing one lol. That just might be the thing I'd need to finally trump the F!Robin GHB quests.

Fury/Renewal comes to mind..

Flynian sounds like a good nickname for Bridal Ninian too xD

I would have put stuff like the TRASH (TRS80) and the various Ataris here if I could. I remember my mom and uncle playing games from those consoles back when I was about three years of age. I started my own foray into video games with the Famicom/NES though.

Xeno-avatar.

Free pull from the SF banner was a 4* Frederick. 12 orbs in from the story maps, and I got a +spd/-res Peganino. Sweet, with the best IVs possible too! While she isn't the first flying green mage I've had (that honor goes to Spring Camilla), she'd be the first hyper-offensive one.

I have one Hardin I don't intend to sack. Got two of them on the Fallen Heroes banner, and I've sacked one for Zephiel. There are a few folks who don't see the need to build up a character like Hardin—probably because they have an efficient red check (I do, in the form of LA!Lyn), or because the team they fielded runs contrary to having Hardin in it.

Oh man. Tell me about it. I wanted to pull Hardin so bad on this banner too. Halloween Jakob is waiting, twiddling his thumbs, just pining for that Bold Fighter. xD

Thanks for the welcome, guys. @Purple Mage: You're telling me, bud. I don't encounter a lot of guys/gals who play any Fire Emblem game at work. I was rooming with a coworker who plays FEH, and I still talk with him occasionally. Trouble is, he moved out because he was relocating near his home (Alabang) and he used to work up here with me in Quezon City.

Giving this thread a much-needed update, with a dish that I swear by. Great as a starter, or just a match with lagers. Cheese sticks with Shrimp 1 lb shrimp, peeled 2 medium heads of garlic, mashed salt & pepper for marinating 250mg box of processed cheese (any brand will do) lumpia wrappers (but of course) Cut the cheese into small strips, not julienne (shoestring cut), but thicker (French fry). Set aside. Marinate the shrimp in salt and pepper and let it sit in the fridge for 30min-1hour. Wrap the cheese, along with one or two pieces of shrimp (depending on size). Fry in a wok or deep fat fryer until golden brown. Remove excess oil by placing sticks atop paper napkins. Serve with Thai sweet chili sauce (the kind they use for fried chicken), or tartar sauce. I had to stop myself from laughing when I typed the first few words for instruction #1...

Has a hilarious signature.
