BabyfarkmcGeezak Hopefully good news about the xbox. I thought it wasn't powering up or the like. Powering up is all it does. Every app icon just leads to the same message (blah blah is taking too long to load error message blah blah). There is a help option at this point, which hilariously also takes too long too load. Can't do anything with it, can't watch DVD or play Fortnite etc...

Everyone just calm the fucking fuck right fucking down right fucking now. We've all had a drink, we've all been turned on by dentists and we are all Zeinab Badawi. It's not a great place to be, but it's where we are, and if we all just carry on drinking heavily I think we can get through this. I'm in.

It's Friday.
I played no games last night, but watched S3 of True Detective.
Mahershala Ali is a fantastic actor.

Well, that age joke didn't go down well. I'm just overly sensitive as someone close to my heart will be 50 in a few months. Sorry, I meant my actual heart. Baby. Wipe it. You've nothing to lose. Unless of course your fornite victory videos and gamesaves aren't in the cloud.

Games: I continue on my quest to 100% Octogenarian Travel Pass. Last night I managed to acquire my first battle-tested weapon. These are apparently the best weapons in the game and will only become available after finishing all stories. I also did a small side quest.
My plan hasn't worked out so far. I visited an optional dungeon and was confronted by a monster that I wished to capture. Then, at one point, it took a single swipe at my whole party.
Me: "Ugh, that brought everyone to their knees and Therion is quite dead. Nobody panic. Cyrus, you give everyone a bunch of healing grapes. H'aanit, you revive Therion with an olive. And Tressa... oh, you still have one more turn with a charged weapon, would be a pity to waste it, go ahead..."
*Tressa hits monster with weapon for some three-digit damage.*
Me: "Okay, Team, now the plan is to..."
*Tressa's rune spell hits for 14,563 damage.*
*Monster is instantly pulverised.*
Me: "Oops."
Yes, I could have easily gone back to my last save, but I couldn't be arsed. More careful next time.

I can't be bothered with the capturing stuff, maybe later when there are some decent monsters around, still collecting the second jobs, then on to Chapter 2, progress delayed as I have to steal/inquire from everyone each time I enter a new town, also challenging anyone blocking a door.
It's quite a restful game also I like xp/jp/money grinding

There is currently no evidence to suggest Chumbles is doing that do them.

I must say, I really enjoyed your post last night re: The Downfall. I watched it quite a few times, it's brilliant. Trufax: I took my wife to be to watch it on our second date (the film, that is). I am quite the romantic.

Xbox is where the hard core gamers go Crank, the PS is for the kiddies and the PC for nerds.

There's a bit of out of date blue cheese in the fridge, otherwise it's back on the cheddar next week. I was thinking of doing a fondue at the weekend to keep up the cheese theme, although I do eat a cheese omelette each weekend morning. Cheese.

It makes sense Xbox players would be better at shooting games. When your target audience is rednecks you'll fill your console with shooting games.

Oh ffs! First I had to look at a picture of Nigel Fromage at the top of the article Sheep linked to, now I had the Wetherspoon News through my letterbox. Can't I even get peace at home from Tim Martin's political views? "Circle of Deceit - How the metropolitan elite tried to con the British public about the need for a 'deal' with the EU - and about food prices post Brexit - see pages 20-21. EU debate pages 22-27."
I had enough of the so-called experts.
