Many thanks Fridge Corn and Feedmegin :)

My favourite thing about EVE is just relaxing to the in game music and mining asteroids. It was so pretty and really good at making me feel chilled out.

I think the original Star Wars trilogy is OK and am not keen on the prequel trilogy but I love the new trilogy. I have not read any of the books or seen any of the cartoons, but I have played a few of the games (Jedi academy ii and the force unleashed). I occupy a strange place in Star Wars fandom.

I’m uncomfortable with the fact there are now 2 mods in here. Guess I won’t be talking about eating car park cheese anymore

I only mod games though and try to be mega fair all the time so please talk away about car park cheese.

Is that like the playground cheese in Diary of a Wimpy Kid?

You definitely have the toughest moderating job. The most I get are people having meltdowns about sjws in gaming or telling people in the Pokemon go thread to kill themselves.

Gbs is so much more varied that I would not be able to do it well.

A good sleep was had!

Last night my sister came back from A&E with a severe neck injury, so to cheer her up I played some Uncharted 1 (which I am working my way through.) She likes to watch adventure games and we were having a chuckle at old Nathan Drake.

(She watched me complete all the tomb raiders and loved to give input.) It was really nice and I hope it made her feel a little bit better!

They scracth that tomb raider itch, which is her favourite game so they get a plus sized thumb up from me!

Plus it sort of gives me an incentive to finally get round to Last of Us.

I got my PS4 with Uncharted trilogy and 4, and I just can’t get into 1. It’s so much shooty shooty snore snore. 2 is better. 3 is great. 4 is literally perfect. Imo.

She went go karting and spun off intro the tyres. Her kart got stuck and they put up the flags to go slow.

Before one of the attendants reached her, some incredible dickhead sped into her kart from the down ramp so fast he nearly flipped her kart and caused her some insane whiplash. Very angry about that.

“THE MEDIATOR” (INFP-T)

Some of the awesome people I share this trait with are:

Lance Sweets from Bones (Easily the best character on the show! :D)
Amelie from Amelie (A lovely beautiful film!)
Fox Mulder (I was an x files nut when I was younger!)

Hooray! I like those results!

Large girders keep swinging past awfully close to my window and I am panicking more than I should. I would not have an issue if the guys doing the buildwork had not (a few weeks earlier during the snow) filled next door with space heaters, causing the snow to melt, flood the top floor and collapse it.

I own a PS4, a Switch and a gaming pc.
Currently on PS4 I am playing Uncharted, Diablo3, Witcher3, Prey.
On Switch I am playing Sparkle (It is basically Luxor and I love those sorts of things) and Mario Odyssey.
On PC I am playing Minecraft and TeamFortress2!

I like to sample as many foods as I can.

Off the top of my head the nicest steak I have ever had was on the Royal Yacht in Jersey.

The nicest burger I ever ate was at Hamburg Airport in a chain called Cindy's Diner (really surprised me just how good it was and I have often wished I could have one again).

The nicest dessert I have ever had was a homemade White Chocolate cheesecake made by the owner of a nice pub that I know of where my sister in law works.

The nicest gnocchi I have ever had was at a different pub where when you have meat you go to a little deli counter and pick how much and what kind you want.

So tasty!

I really liked the resolution of Dr. Strange. It was really neat that he figured out the best way to defeat the villain was to annoy him for eternity.

I like the marvel films a lot because of how much fun they are. Iron Man 3 is probably my favourite, followed by Spider-Man Homecoming and then probably a tie between Thor: Ragnarok or Guardians of the Galaxy II.
