    Anybody know anything about air conditioning?

    Still brutally hot and oppressively humid, and yesterday, the a/c unit in the room starts making a cracking noise. Still making the blowing at full blast sound, but no air comng out. I open it up, and under the filters there's a sheet of ice covering everything. I've thawed it out and soaked...

    Anybody here playing Metal Slug Attack?

    Just curious if anyone else is playing this, or if there's a N-G.com league or something. I just started playing it last week, and it's pretty fun for a tower defense game. Better than Metal Slug Defense, which I only played for about 5 minutes.

    American ex-pats in Japan -- Taxes?

    Hey, all. I'm getting ready to relocate back to Japan, semi-permanently this time. At least a few years. Before this, even when I was working there, I did it 3 months at a time and kind of off the books. And the schools I worked for handled whatever they needed to handle. But this time I'll...

    Letterman Retiring in 2015

    http://www.tmz.com/2014/04/03/david-letterman-retiring/?ncid=webmail14 There goes the only late night host that ever made me laugh. He's earned a nice retirement, but I hope he's able to adjust to life without a steady stream of hot female interns. Vaya con dios, Dave. And Paul. It's not...

    Movie Player for Mac?

    Hey, party people. I've just upgraded my Mac to Mountain Lion, which means the movie player I've been using to watch .mkv files and whatnot, MPlayer OSX Extended, no longer works. Does anyone know a good alternative and where to find it? Thanks in advance.

    Must-Have Games for DS/3DS

    So I'm thinking about getting either a 3DS XL or DSi XL. What are the must-have games (excluding cutesy crap) for each? I'm sure I will eventually play and even enjoy the Mario games, but those really aren't my interest anymore, even when they are well done. But when I look on amazon, it...

    Mayan Credibility Is On the Line

    Not many days left before Mayan put-up-or-shut-up day. No more property taxes. No more income taxes. No more worrying about health insurance, car insurance, or other modern life bullshit problems. Will the Mayans come through? Will you ever be able to trust the Mayans again if they don't?

    Happy late birthday to one of the forum's best and -- despite the fact none of us made a thread -- most universally liked members. Joe is right up there with Domino for having never pissing off anyone, as far as I can remember, ever. I am deeply disappointed in each and every one of you...

    Okay, go time. Favorite Detective or Cop Mystery show of the 1980s

    Series that began sometime in the period from 1980 to 1989. I had to include that limiter or Rockford Files would mess me up and I'd have a tough time choosing. And I'm specifically talking about mystery shows, not procedurals or ongoing drama series like Hill Street Blues. I mean shows where...

    I have manged to miss posting in almost all birthday threads for nearly a year (even ones I meant to post in), so this shouldn't come down to me, you insufferable assholes. How could you let this happen? Is there anyone who doesn't think Joe is one of the most quality members here? I doubt...
