I am talking money in. I use stuff in my boxes, and trades as well.
Spent $15 - Da Bu De -- Da Bu DIE!, Now with 37% more Teeg
$10 - Goblin--ish EDH, Piano Man's Lively Brigade
$5 - Super Budget Talrand EDH, #1 Hamburger Combo
There is a ton of stuff I would want for them, but I have to wait on trades. They all work pretty well though.

How can you be on this site and not know me? You probably don't play Golgari colors so we haven't crossed paths or something.
I am the TO 420 activist lol

Well, do you play EDH is the real question. thats all I do, so if you don't play that, that makes sense.

DERPLINGSUPREME says... #13
well there ya go. that explains everything. I do have a few non-EDH lists, but none are pure golgari.
If you'd like, I'll show you my version of golgari, whether its in edh or not.
if fact, how about you try to build a jeskai EDH deck and I'll try to make modern golgari?

I have a modern Jeskai deck that I've been working on for a while, that's middle ground. I've seen some cool EDH decks Worldslayer+Avacyn, Angel of Hope is my absolute favorite but no matter how hard I try I cant come up with a list of 100 cards for myself. That BUG card they were talking about Domria or whatever is kinda inspiring. Makes me want to use Alchemist's Refuge

Someone entertain me. I'm adapting a 164-page risk management/security control framework into a new organizational structure and I need something to engage the other 97% of my brain cells.

Seems like you're doing a fine job of entertaining yourself. Apply yourself to your job, man.

This part of my job requires little engagement. I already laid the groundwork. This is just a content port.

Depends really, there are so many different categories of horror. Don't really like the torture horror movies where a group of like 10 are captured and 1-0 make it out alive. Stuff like The Babadook or The Thing are great though.

I like Torture Horror but not really referring to stuff like Hostel. More so stuff like Martyrs. I found Her Name is Torment to be well done and am awaiting the American Genie Pig movies. Flower of Flesh & Blood is the only original film I've seen in the series. ...I also like stuff like The Conjuring & The Devil Inside. The more realistic and likely it is to happen the more I can get into it... ...that being said I absolutely love Frontier(s).
May 13, 2015 2:46 p.m.
All I can say about horror genres is...
Screw exorcist movies. Demons, nuh uh.

APPLE01DOJ says... #35
How is Babadook? It's on my to buy blind list. Last few flicks I bought that way were The Taking of Deborah Logan, The Possession of Michael King & As Above So Below.

I mean one of the first Torture horror movies I saw was Saw. That was great. Didn't watch all of the sequels but the ones I did see sucked. And there are so many horror movies that try and copy what they did, and are just poorly done and gross.
The Conjuring was decent, saw it with friends so it wasn't as scary as it could have been (I think all horror movies get scarier the less people you have in the room watching). Was pretty well done and you could tell they put a decent amount of thought and time into it, but was a bit disappointed with the ending.
Haven't seen The Devil Inside though I heard it was bad. Never heard of American Genie Pig.
If you haven't seen "I Saw The Devil", you need to watch it. It's fucking amazing. Disturbing as shit, and it's a Korean film so it's gonna be with subtitles, but it's fantastic. And i'm almost convinced that they used a legit guy on Death Row as one of the main bad guys because they showed him falling off a three story building onto concrete with no cut. I mean, I seriously doubt they did that but for the life of me I couldn't figure out how they pulled that off. The movie is all kinds of fucked up but it's great.
Also, V.H.S. is very good as far as horror films go. Second one blows, though I hear they are coming out with a third.

The Devil Inside is dope whoever said it was bad must just not be into that kind of movie. I like the last story in VHS. VHS 2 is okay and Viral (3) is already out but I hear it's horrible everywhere.
Genie Pig is a Japanese series that is very violent so to say. America is currently making its own films for the series.
Haven't seen I Saw The Devil or Bedeviled yet cause the subtitles are screwed up on my downloads but I love foriegn film. French is my favorite but have you seen Darah aka Macabre? Pretty sure it's Korean too but it's dope regardless not spooky but nuts.
I really enjoyed [REC] 3.

Goddamned Entei is ruining my entire day. I have it at 1 HP, and the ball hasn't clicked once. Tried 23 Ultra Balls. NOW I'M PISSED.
On a positive note, I'm having surgery in 2 days. I'm so friggin pumped!

So on Monday in NYC, four different people were attacked by a man in his mid/early thirties with a hammer. All seriously injured. Was on the news Monday and last night.
Today, the man was caught on camera walking down the street. As soon as he passed two officers, he lunged at one and started beating her with a hammer. Her partner quickly fired four shots before he could do more harm and the guy died shortly afterwards.
Here's the article. Click
The kicker is, of course, not six months ago, he was released from a psychiatric mental health institute where he had been diagnosed with extreme paranoia and schizophrenia. And not to be racist, but the fact the guy was black is definitely going to be a factor in this.
In the video, you can clearly see that he attacks the two offers unprovoked... but it'l be interesting to see if the media in the next few days turns this into a "NYC police offer murders mentally challenged victim".
Should be interesting to follow.

Can't wait until the public gets tired of the media fanning the flames

kyuuri117 - Its worth noting that there's plenty of evidence to suggest that black americans are more readily handed severe mental health diagnoses based on no biological or symptomatic evidence at all. That is separate to the issue though.
I don't really think that that is a particular abuse of power; reading the above. Although as a European I'm still not big on guns, but you know. If it's part of the culture then it's part of the culture.

Well, as the New York Times (very liberal paper if anyone was unaware) has initially reported this with a "the police did the correct thing" spin to this, I'm willing to bet this specific story isn't going to get blown out of proportion. But i'm still going to keep an eye on it to see if other media outlets take it and run.

It's not that it's not an interesting conversation, but I usually come to T/O to get away from the real world, notably the problems it has. Which is politics.

Also yeah, I've been distancing myself from water. It was ok for a while, but it's just not enjoyable. I think I might go for thicker consistency.
