Wait…what? Wasteland 2 came out? The successor to this game (which I haven’t replayed since I was a kid despite having bought it on Steam over a year ago)?
Yup. And now it has a free upgrade to Directors Edition 
I watched a YouTube review of the game this morning. I think I’m going to pass on it.
I hope nobody in the Bay Area has been eating in San Jose lately.
Ugh, that’s soo awful. Some nasty bastard in the kitchen failed to maintain basic sanitary standards. Just ewwww.
You’d be surprised how often this really happens in California.
We have to have a sign on the swimming pool here, that no-one who has diarrhea or has had it in the previous 2 weeks is allowed in the pool.
From what I am told, a few of the kids wound up with some parasite a couple years ago.
I think we can successfully say that global warming is the truth: Arizona just beat Toronto in ice hockey, 4-3.
If you can snag it cheap, I recommend Wasteland 2. I played during the beta so my copy was buggy but still enjoyable. It plays a lot like the original. I’ve been meaning to start a new game on the Director’s Cut as my toons stats are all over the place but haven’t been motivated enough. I want to play it on my Surface but I need to create a game overlay for the game or my phone. One of these days.
My one concern with Wasteland 2 is I’ve heard there’s some good writing, balanced by some very silly writing at times. One review I heard recently was that it didn’t do a very good job of making you feel like you were controlling a party, but more a single character that was an amalgam of the party members.
I could see both of those. Granted this is from me playing early release versions so it may be wildly different. I did have issues with the group. I tend to be a jack of all trades as my main but with the addition of the other members, it was tough trying to balance everyone. Picking out one person as bomb/heavy and another as sniper/lockpick and so on. And once you get a member, at least I had problems replacing them only because they had been with me for a while. I know I goofed up at the start. We’ll see if it’s better on the 2nd play.
What is the purpose of putting all of this hype on the outside of the pizza box? The only ones who are going to see it are me, who already paid for it, and the (possibly) the guys at the landfill. And I doubt the guys at the landfill are going to find anything they see at work even remotely appetizing.
I’m not sure what it says about my fellow citizens that in the motorway service station, the condom machine was in stock of regular condoms, “enhancement” tablets, breath mints, and condoms for the insecure gentleman, but it was out of stock of “naughty apricot flavoured massage oil and lubricant”.
I guess someone was hungry and the snack machine was out of order?

Or some kids thought it was hilarious and bought them all. Happens a lot in the US.
I now know what I want for Christmas.
Why does everything have to be “Extreme”?
Sign on a vacant hardware store:
Coming soon: EXTREME DANCE November 2015
What exactly is extreme dance? Do they do all their dances on a balance beam suspended 10 meters above the ground?
It’s great when the QVC guy selling laptops knows absolutely nothing about the laptops he’s selling.
Apparently the 10" screen means it has room for vinyl speakers. I mean, what? WHAT!?
Oh, and a year’s subscription to Office 365 means that for a whole year you’ll be able to write all your documents and spreadsheets… he says, holding up a box that clearly says Office:Mac on the front ~.~ yeah, that’ll work fine on that laptop running Windows 10, and doesn’t have a DVD drive you cretin.
What are “vinyl speakers”? And who the hell is selling a 10" screen? My screen is 17". The idea that anyone would use a 10" screen that is not a tablet is bizarre.
I nearly went insane trying to get back my Office 2015, rather than get ripped off for Office 365.

The vinyl speakers were never explained. Also, the product was a tablet, but apparently nobody had realised this at all. They were selling it as a laptop. I just… I… how do these people have jobs?
Nepotism would explain the in-breeding.
