Morning Coffee 6/12

Morning! Hope everyone's having a great day so far. I feel like I've thrown out my back and torn my biceps from moving an entire couch from our apartment on the 2nd floor, trying to impress my wife. So, I hurt. How's everyone?

    But did it impress her? The moving of the couch, not the damaging yourself.

    All good here. Bloody humid and rather looking forward to the storms rolling in later. Can't beat a good thunder and lightning show.

      It did impress her, and I felt pretty husband/dad-like for about six hours.

      success!

      Yeah, it looks like we're in for lightning storms here as well today :/

    Let's see. Playing Fallout 3 tonight, have a 5k tomorrow. Been shopping around for some mikes for me and the wife. I think we've settled on a Specialized Crosstrail. Will probably go Sunday to pick them up, along with a car carrier. Just in time for the summer riding season.

    Hope you feel better, man. Pick up some muscle relaxers. They might not stop the pain, but you'll be smiling too much to care.

      Is this your first Fallout 3 playthrough? If so, you are in for a hell of a ride! If not, well Fallout never stops being fun.

        This will be my second. I played the first on xbox 360. Steam had a cheap deal for the GOTY edition, so I went ahead and picked it up. Looking forward to enjoying it again, and going through all of the DLC that came afterwards.

          And the mods, sweet sweet mods.

          You played it once, and now is when you play your SECOND?! You filthy casual! Haha, seriously though. The game is so big, you will discover alot more on your second playthrough. Enjoy it! TUNNEL SNAKES RULE!

            I should really hunker down and play that game sometime.

        Thanks, looking forward to it! This is my 7th for the season. Last year did 16 of them.

        I need a better hobby ;)

    Also, my poor finger and mouse. I put like 74 hours in Clicker Heroes on Steam, and then the Summer Sale finally started :D

    ....To a clicker heroes type game! MORE CLICKING!

      Never heard of "Clicker Heroes", I'll have to check it out. THAT addicting huh?

      • Autumnal

        Very much so, it's incredibly simple but satisfying. It's like a playable skinner box. Designed to be satisfying.

      I feel your pain. I just started playing tap titans last week and it is strangely addicting to be a game only about tapping.

    Fine thanks. I've been busy waiting around to get carpets installed in my mum's house. It's a week late because they showed up last week and said they couldn't install it because they "had too much carpet". I looked baffled and asked them what that meant, that surely shouldn't have been a problem. They explained that the person who measured up hadn't cut it up into individual bits (stairs, hall, landing, cubby hole, etc) but had allocated a massive roll on a square foot area basis.

    So far so good for a Friday. I'm hoping for a slow day at work and looking forward to the Gym at lunch.

    Its 6:45 am here on the west coast, just about to have my morning coffee as well. Really looking forward to going fishing after work today, a bit of relaxation is much needed!

    Grand. Second day of decompressing after taking my last exam. This weekend I'm going to try and ease myself back into the real world. Until then, it's sleeping in late and eating poorly!

    Well I'm moving to another state today. So that's a thing I'm dealing with now. But I'll be moving 3 months after that for uni anyways so it's not the end of the world.

    I got Splatoon.

    I am both a kid now, AND a squid now.

      How is it so far? I'm so backlogged between everything right now.

      • eightbitsamurai

        I didn't think it'd be as addictive as it ended up being. The one thing that's kept me away from FPS shooters is the game feel. Splatoon has got that Nintendo polish over that Call of Duty core. Plus it's unique, and fast enough (3 min matches) that even if I get decimated I never feel like rage-quiting or anything. And that doesn't even include the single-player campaign, new stuff being added every week, and playing dress up with your avatar (which is consistently my favorite thing ever).

        I'm actually super happy I got this over the Witcher 3, haha.

    Pretty great I finally got a job on Monday after months of searching and have just been able to just relax all week. Can't wait to start next Monday.

        Online order department of a store. So a slow day means not many orders to deal with.

    It is much later in Europe though I did have coffee. I am walking the Camino de Santiago and my feet are killing me from all the walking. If it wasn't for my feet, I would be doing great.

    Good (late) morning to ya!

    It's Friday, it's payday, the weather is gloomy, overcast, and absolutely wonderful (hopefully it'll last), and I was late to the office so the workday is already halfway over! All in all today should be a fantastic day.

    Good (late) morning from the north west! Beautiful weather but stuck at work. Hoping to get outside and grilling by 4 and have a few brewskis.

    Just got home from work after depositing my paycheck (saving up for a gaming PC) and so far stuff's good. Listening to ASOT (A State Of Trance) to finish out the night.

    Doing fine, sitting back grinding out Streetfighter X Tekken achievements while playing FFXI and lurking Snapzu. I need more coffee.
