Thanks. Probably not tonight. Have to put in some quality time with the GF. Will throw you an invite soon though.

Could use a hand with fears embrace. Can almost solo it but not quite. Username is eumpfenbach.

These phishing warnings are really annoying. Maybe a good time for a VC break.

I feel like maybe I posted this in here before but one lesson learned from me -- don't buy middle of the road stuff to put in your house. You'll eventually end up in a position something like "I really wish my fridge had an ice maker, but it works so why replace it." It's also a pain in the ass to deal with. Go really cheap just to fill the house with stuff you will eventually easily replace (you can basically furnish an entire kitchen with plates, glasses, utensils, etc from the dollar store) or buy the nicest things you can realistically see yourself wanting as you can afford them. Stay out of the area in between.

So much stupidity. Half the records immediately go on eBay for too much money and then they are normally priced a couple days later.

I have no idea what this is about

I think he just answered it wrongly the first time he was questioned and then dig in instead of changing his answer.

Trump bungled the kkk thing but if you asked me which republican I thought would be least likely to be a secret klan member, it would be him.

Cool. I still haven't done the raid. I always tell myself I am only going to play for a half hour so don't bother and then end up in the crucible for 2.

GF turned on Fuller House. Holy shit is that awful. One line followed by laugh track for 10 minutes straight until I made her turn it off. I always thought the Big Bang Theory got a little too much shit for the laugh track (I don't mind that show but quit watching a few seasons ago) but maybe I had blinders on. Also, I think it has been mentioned before but New Girl is a really, really good show. It's dipped a bit in season 5 but the first 4 are gold. On the surface it looks like another crappy sitcom but it is really well written and very funny. Definitely something that most of the VC crowd would like if they gave it an honest try.

Gotcha. Thanks. I looked online and it looks like you get something sweet from Dead Orbit at level 25. I'm at level 10. Have a long way to go. I wasn't sure if I should switch up my allegiance but I guess not. I should have read an overall primer on how to play this game before jumping in. I played for weeks without an allegiance chosen. I'd be a lot further if I had done that sooner.

I'm guessing trials of Osiris is next up since I seem to be getting the coins more frequently?

So as long as you have the energy, workout whenever.

The literature supports that no period of time is better than any other to work out (in terms of the way your body reacts to equal stimulus), but it's harder to get the max out of it very early or late in the day when your engine isn't going as strongly as around midday.

I don't see Trump as that much worse than Bush and the country survived that, so no.

Warm up milk... It should be just warm enough that if you put your pinkie in to test temp, it should be comfortable. Add 2 tablespoons of store bought plain Greek yogurt. Stir for 20 seconds. Put lid on and cover with a blanket/ trowel. Let sit 4-6 hours min. When opened up, it should have a thick yogurt consistency. Chill in refrigerator.

My GF made homemade Greek yogurt. It's surprisingly easy and about 1/10th of what it costs at the store.

What do you do with your legendary marks? I can't seem to buy anything that is over 280 (which does me no good). I've been buying random items from the cryptarch just hoping but no luck.

I know that wasn't directed at me but gonna give my 2 cents. It's 80% what you eat. If you are 30+ pounds overweight, you don't even need to work out. It's far more important to focus on a healthy diet. You also run the risk if you go to the gym and sweat it out for 2 hours of coming home and throwing it away with unhealthy eating because your body is exhausted and craves nutrition. Half hour of light cardio is all you need for weight loss. No drinking calories (pop, juice, alcohol, etc). If you like brewing, take a month or two off. Be the DD. Keep a food log. Plan your meals, weigh them, and stick to the plan. It really helps to prevent opening a bag of trail mix, thinking you are going to eat a handful, and finishing half the bag. Eat a diet that is heavily based on fruits and vegetables. A little olive oil won't kill you but don't be dunking things in ranch and frying them. Those are all pretty basic things.

Got a mic now. Is there any point to playing iron banner beyond level 5? That's where the good items you can win stops, right?

Picked up super Mario Galaxy 2. Never played it.

Hands down the best fries I've ever eaten came from here: http://www.reggieslive.com/menu/

Watching a 10 minute trailer seems like a good way to spoil a movie
