QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Oct 14, 2013 -> 07:15 AM) Solid opening to The Walking Dead. I thought the episode was somewhat mediocre to be honest. Too much ambiguity with that kid and some of the stuff with Rick. Wasn't very compelling.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 02:33 PM) Don't worry. The son is illegitimate and AP is a real man and will play on Sunday regardless. Huh?

Adrian Peterson's son died.

QUOTE (Jake @ Oct 11, 2013 -> 12:53 PM) I'm looking at my storage breakdown and I can't figure out what is meant by "other" and why it is so big: Apps = ~4GB Music = ~814MB Photos/Videos = ~7.17GB Downloads = ~50mb Other = ~8GB What the hell is "other"??? I don't necessarily need to free the space just yet, but I can't figure out what could be taking up all that space. Nandroid backup? Titanium backups? OS footprint? Not sure.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 10, 2013 -> 03:41 PM) When is our celebrity president going to get this shutdown ended?? Do you even know how the government operates? Like the basics (i.e., passing bills, etc.)?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 06:29 AM) "This is the End" is garbage. Total lowest common denominator movie. Wait. You hated this movie but think The League is currently hilarious? Your take on comedic material can no longer be trusted.

Kenny Powers is back! Yes I'm a couple days late. Great episode.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 07:43 PM) the Democrats supported the Iraq war and like taxes.

My god. I have no words.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 12:03 PM) Sigh, HTC. Can't you just disable NFC in your settings?

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 09:50 AM) downloaded jelly bean 4.3. What the hell is this N symbol ? Anyone? Next to my phone noise settings? NFC

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 05:44 AM) I use Google Now, and the next version coming hooks into iOS7's notification center, background processes, etc. I've been experimenting with it and I'm trying to decide if it's actually useful or not...shows me stuff I want to see, but it's stuff I already see elsewhere. Any good uses you know for it? Like cw42 said, it's great when you're going somewhere (i.e., restaurant, someone's house, etc.) where you can google the place on your desktop and when you get in your car, your phone will will have a google now notification showing you how long it will take to get there in current traffic and an option to get turn-by-turn directions. I also like that it will give me tracking updates for packages without me doing anything. It'll just scan my gmail and know that I have a package coming. Same thing with flights. My wife forwarded an email confirmation for her mom's visit to Seattle. On the day of the flight, I was getting flight status info automatically. It's especially useful when you travel. It will show notifications for nearby restaurants, attractions, etc. with directions on how to get there, ratings, etc.

New Danny Brown album is solid.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Oct 7, 2013 -> 01:14 PM) Bought tickets for Gravity this coming weekend at the IMAX. It's going to cost my wife and I 48 bucks for the tickets and parking. f***ing insane. Ride your bikes.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 7, 2013 -> 03:33 AM) You're acting like you just got out of prison or something. There is a thing called the internet with loads of boobs. I'd rather watch Carrie cry than Dana do anything. She'd annoying and do not get why she is so prominent in the show. Give her her own show on the CW or something. That kid is so irrelevant to me that I just learned her character's name by reading this post.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 6, 2013 -> 08:29 PM) So who is pumped for this Chargers-Raiders game?!? *Raises hand*

Gravity was stellar. I highly recommend checking out in IMAX 3D.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Oct 5, 2013 -> 12:26 AM) Top of the Lake is like.... 7 episodes maybe? The first 4 or 5 are terribly slow. The last couple are very good and were actually compelling enough that I'll watch a 2nd season. It's certainly not a fast paced show but I was engrossed throughout. Also, the series is over after one season. I think that's why it got nominated as a mini-series at the Emmys.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 4, 2013 -> 02:45 PM) Is House of Cards all politics talk?? I'm not into politics and don't know any of the lingo so I never really started that. Orange is the New Black I watched and it was pretty good. What is Top of the Lake about? You don't need to be a political junkie to enjoy House of Cards. Top of the Lake (via wikipedia): Top of the Lake is an acclaimed 2013 television miniseries written by Jane Campion and Gerard Lee, and directed by Campion and Australian Garth Davis. Filmed and set in New Zealand, the drama series follows a detective (Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss) investigating the disappearance of a pregnant 12-year-old girl. Reviews of Top of the Lake have been positive, referring to the series as "masterfully made", "beautiful", "mysterious", "riveting" and "a masterpiece". It received a score of 86 from Metacritic and a score of 92% from Rotten Tomatoes.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 4, 2013 -> 02:03 PM) How many seasons have there been of Homeland? I think I might pick that up this weekend before the Bulls/Hawks/NU trifecta tomorrow night. Season 3 just started. The 1st two seasons had about 12 episodes each. I think it's one of the better dramas on TV right now.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 4, 2013 -> 01:59 PM) What to watch, what to watch. Nothing to do, need something to watch! lol These are all one season in so not much to catch up on: House of Cards Orange is the New Black Top of the Lake

Four Tet is streaming his new album on Soundcloud. LINK

What is the logic behind Rotten Tomato's scoring? Reason I ask, I noticed that of the 110 reviews in for Gravity, only two were classified as rotten. Upon closer inspection, one of those 2 reviews gave the movie a B minus.

We're slowly becoming Somalia.
