From my experience with trashy novels, "martial arts class" is code for "having an affair now." Should... should we tell Chris?

Do you think Sandi uses the LE Porsche to zoom to the studio to get a tweetable photo afterhours?

I wish phone photos had useful metadata, because Sandi has been caught before posting photos of CIG offices when she was out on auditions or vacation or whatever (IIRC there were two pics posted weeks apart—along with tweets that implied they were just snapped—where multiple people were wearing the same clothes in each). I imagine she takes a handful of pics whenever she breezes through the office, and holds onto them until she has a reason to post one.

That pic of the team meeting she posted on Monday was almost certainly taken the Friday before. You can see Mrs. Lesnick and Lando are wearing the same clothes as they did on RtV.

I suspect you suspicious are correct.

If the UK can leave the EU, than CiG can fold as a company.


Or maybe Chris Roberts orchestrated the UK leaving the EU so that UK backers won't be able to use those pesky 'Consumer Protection Laws'?

The Steam Summer Sale is upon us. I liked House of the Dying Sun, but my laptop is a root with aspirations of being a potato, so even that game stuttered on me. Any recommendations for space games or IMMERSIVE FANTASY WORLDS for a laptop that would have an emotional breakdown at the mention of the Crytek engine?

I-War 2 is currently cheaper than a king-size candy bar! It's a lot like Star Citizen, in that it has:
1. FMV cutscenes that are positively :gary: in their quality and acting performance.
2. Fidelitous newtonian flight physics.

But unlike Star Citizen, it has:
1. A very fun SP campaign.
2. Good joystick & keyboard controls + a very functional UI that makes a game that's more complex than the average space sim very approachable.
3. A semi-open world that was ahead of it's time and is still ahead of Star Citizen by miles.

And finally, you can steal a crate of antimatter from an NPC cargo ship, throw it at the cops' station, and blow it up in an explosion so big it might make your computer crash*. gently caress the police.


*not guaranteed to cause a crash, the computers of today are probably a lot better at massive explosions than mine was in '02

I've never seen sandi wearing a wedding ring/band. And she seems the type who would be wearing a rock if she had one.

I'm not creepy (I'm creepy), I just always look at people's jewelry (or lack of it) because it tells a lot about them.
