Not gonna lie I had to look up what Slytherin was. "Officially the sexiest house in Hogwarts" is what I came up with.

Well I'm flattered Triple.

It's also full of liars and cheaters and all-around horrible people. So either way.

I always felt bad for Hufflepuff. Like, they could've been excluded from the entire series and nobody would've known/gave a ****.

You mudbloods keep your mouth shut about Slytherin, okay ?

Re: Off Topic 2013

I just got it too. It's fun, but I guess I was expecting more from the fighting the way it gets hyped. Half the time the camera angles suck and it's just 5 guys standing in front of you attacking you one at a time. If they made some way to swing the camera around while you were in locked-in fighting mode, that would be ideal. Other than that, there are a lot of side things to do, and the way the police cases progress is kind of neat.

Now I'm going to get AC IV and probably completely forget about Sleeping Dogs for a couple weeks.

It's been a couple months since I've played, but the beauty of the combat is similar to the Arkham series. Its not so much as it being overly difficult, but how you can structure and link moves. Not to mention some of the moves you unlock later on are pretty damn cool. I thought you could swing the camera around during fights, though?

I finished up season 3 of SoA. Damn what a great season and an awesome finale.

Online customer service chat is awesome. The days of having to call Comcast and try to mask my incredulation at their stupidity and regional accents are over.

Short story:
I managed to get my $120 bill for my apartment down to $30.

Long story:

Spoiler

Being stuck with Comcast I opted for the Mover's Edge transfer. When I ordered this transfer my service end/transfer date was October 25th. I actually set up my internet on the 23rd. The cable topbox they sent me was a complete dud and I had to have a technician come out on the 26th to fix it (which all he really did was switch the box out).

One of the last pieces of mail I receive at the apartment is Comcast's bill. The service period is from 10/15 through 11/15 with payment due on the 1st. Through the course of moving it gets pushed back in my mind since I have other things going on. Yesterday I received a Comcast bill at the new place for service at the new place. The service period on this bill is from 10/21 through 11/20. This immediately triggers something in my head that I feel like I'm trying to be bent over. Homie don't play that.

Thanks to the magic of the interwebz, I start my chat session with Luzzile which is a synonym for moron. I tell this person that my old bill runs from 10/15 to 11/15 why I'm being billed for service that was unavailable to me. After a couple minutes of pushing the notion that I was transferring service and wasn't buying 2 services the bill gets dropped down to $48.95. "Still too damn high!" /RentTooHighGuy.

I express my concern to them about the service start date for the new house, 10/21. I'm not sure where that date came from and they couldn't go any further than "its your service start date." At this point there are several dates floating around the most important one being 10/25 which is the original transfer date. After going in circles for several minutes they finally acknowledge 10/25 as being the transfer date and its relation to the service start date at the other house since they advertise this service as a transfer.

Once they connected the dots they bumped my bill down to $29.96.

Suffice to say I felt pretty damn successful.

What a way to disappoint not only your team, but your whole school and community as well.

Only in small towns does the community give a damn what happens to high school football players and the high school sports team. I know in Chicago and when I lived in northwest Indiana, people didn't give a crap about high school sports unless their kid was actually playing. No kid on the team ? People didn't watch or pay attention to high school sports.

Chicago seems to care about HS hoops.

Re: Off Topic 2013

The community didn't come out to support public high school sports around here outside of a few hockey and football programs. Thanksgiving day football was the only time people really showed out.

Only to a certain point and only about a few schools, such as Simeon, CVS and Marshal on the southside.

I've had to raise my goal for Extra Life 2013 3 times so far thanks to you guys. Not a bad problem to have considering we've raised over $250 for Children's Miracle Network.

Thanks again!
