Re: Off Topic 2013
Alright, conspiracy theory time.
And I preface this story by admitting I haven't seen this stuff with my own eyes but it was my friend who told me he saw this stuff and he really has no reason to lie to me about it since it doesn't affect him in any way.
I recently bought a townhouse so this is in a pretty populated area and it's right off the interstate so I'm not really talking about being in the back woods or anything but there is a huge field in the back that is heavily wooded and this goes back quite a ways.
There is a wetland pretty close to me and I've seen quite a few deer since moving in which I've enjoyed but my friend is an avid hunter and he wanted to scope it out so one day he brought his dog and decided to check for tracks and deer marks on trees. I was at work and had no idea he was doing this.
So I saw him on Friday night and he told me that after getting pretty deep into the woods he came accross some extremely disturbing things.
On two consecutive trees there were large white bed sheets tied into figure eights. On the third tree there was a hanging cookie monster doll (wtf?).
A short while later he said there was a ****ing chicken coup with roosters that were outside of the coup and they were angry roosters who started going after his dog.
Now this certainly sounds outlandish but I don't think you can even make up a story that involves the cookie monster and a chicken coup.
I put this here in OT because I have some theories none of which we should probably be getting into any sort of a discussion about here but if anyone has any idea about what could be going on here please let me know whether it be here or via PM if necessary.
Just to get it out of the way my theories involve either an illegal fighting scheme that we shouldn't be talking about or some sort of a "group" who might be worshiping a diety of evil nature which is also something we obviously don't want to be talking about.Comment

Re: Off Topic 2013
I've noticed lately when I am watching tv, my screen with turn black for a few seconds off and on. Weird thing is, I've never had it happen when I am gaming. Could it be my HDMI cable on the TV, or could it be my DTV box? Any ideas why it would only be when watching TV, but not when I am playing games? That's what makes me think nothing is wrong with the TV.Wolverines Wings Same Old Lions Tigers Pistons Erika ChristensenComment

Re: Off Topic 2013
General sports gaming question for everyone...
When playing any sports video game, which stadium/field/ballpark/arena do you enjoy most playing in when playing as the away team?
I thought about this when I read in year 2 of a Madden franchise, you can play at Levi Field which I thought was cool and looking forward to playing in as the away team.

Re: Off Topic 2013
I really, really, really like hitting in Fenway Park in The Show. I see the ball well there, for whatever reason.
I hate day games in Cleveland's stadium (Progressive Field?). There's some sort of sunlight glare on the trees by the batter's eye, which happens to be right where the pitcher releases the ball and it makes the ball invisible to me for some reason.Member: OS Uni Snob Association | Twitter: @MyNameIsJesseG | #WT4M | #WatchTheWorldBurn

My bedroom TV does that. Instead of pixelating it just goes black for about 2 seconds. It's the cable/satellite reception.
The bedroom TV has a 240hz refresh rate so I've always assumed it's the technology of the TV that keeps it from ever pixelating.Twitter

Re: Off Topic 2013
I just encountered the most annoying retail employee imaginable in Gamestop. I haven't been in there in months either.
I walked in and didn't make eye contact.
"Helllooooo {weird voice}"
Me: Hey
"How are you doing today ?"
me: I'm okay (typically say I'm good, how about you in this situation).
"Can I help you find anything:
me: nope, I've got it.. thanks.
Then she brings a laundry list of new games coming out to me. I had all ready picked up FIFA 13 at this point and I followed her to the counter.
She started talking about FIFA 14 on the xbox one and I said,
"I noticed you guys are pretty pro-xbox. I'll get it one day on the PS4."
Then she tried getting me to reserve it and I said no, I'll probably just go through Amazon when I do buy it in the future.
Then she mentioned Grand Theft Auto 5 and I said, "Yeah I cancelled my pre order a few months ago. I'm getting it at Best Buy".
I just wanted to say, "Lady.. this is exactly why I get my **** from Amazon. They don't ask me about my life story all the way down to the brand of tooth paste I used this *** **** morning".
I know GS employees always talk alot, but this girl was annoying.Comment

Re: Off Topic 2013
It should be easy to tell by the tone of someone's voice and the way they walk how much help they really need. She obviously struggles with it.
I'm sure she's just a very nice, weird person trying to do a good job.. doesn't make it any less annoying.Comment
