But seriously. Of you guys that have met me, seen me out, just happen to know what I look like...what if this story were about me? I mean, I considered for a bit going to Howard University, and could easily imagine myself in a role not dissimilar to this womans. Could you imagine that? Now, I have the benefit of legitimately having a black father, but do you think anyone (who didn't know my father and I personally) would believe that? Here's another question thats REALLY going to cook your brain; What if, at age 35, it suddenly came out that I WAS the product of an affair, that the man who I'd thought was my father for 35 years, the man who had raised me, the man who's family I had been integrated into, was NOT my biological father? What then? I would have been identifying myself as mixed race for my entire life, and had been identified as that by everyone around me, including the government. What if, when that bomb was dropped, I was in a role similar to the role this woman is in, one that, for all intents and purposes, was a role that could only be filled by someone who was black/mixed race? There are no "right or wrong" answers to my question, it's intention is only to make you think. Also, I don't mean to say that her situation and mine are mirrored, just that there are some similarities, mainly centered around how we identify ourselves, and how the world views us as a result.

I'm black.

If you haven't ever played on one, do yourself a favor and check out a 27" 2650x1440 (you might hear it referred to as WQHD). A significant upgrade over 1080p, and much easier for today's GPU's to manage. Also, you can get a good one for ~$300.

There isn't much in the way of single GPU solutions out there right now that can easily handle a 4k setup. I would strongly consider a multi GPU setup. Even then, on the newest games (like a Witcher 3) you are going to be looking at 2 near top level cards before you are running games at 4k res on the higher settings at anything near 60 fps. Here is a graphic benchmark of Witcher 3 illustrating (see what I did there?) some of the challenges. For the record, I have a 2650x1440 monitor powered by dual 780Ti's, and I run Witcher on High setting (read: NOT Ultra) because I prefer the super smooth gameplay of the higher framerate (also, it's still an incredible game to look at at high settings). http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/the-witcher-3-graphics-performance-review,1.html Not trying to shit on your desires, bruh. Just want to make sure you understand that having it all on 4k is actually a difficult target to hit, and a "reasonable" gpu might not get you the results your are looking for.

And thus, it begins... :lolguy:

Possible that the engineer did not know that it was tearing itself to pieces? I'm not sure how much noise that would make....

Yikes. Would hate to be part of THAT repair crew.

Great place to keep my collection of vinyl records, lava lamps, and bellbottom jeans.

Dem Wheels :no:

Ahhh..... Nuff said.

Hour long season recap.

It's funny because it's true. Here's the scoop, EVEN THE FUCKING MUSLIMS ARE BOMBING THE SHIT OUT OF ISIS. If they showed up in any other country, methinks the US wouldn't really have to do much but make a phone call. "Hello, this is Portia Miller, Prime Minister of Jamaica." "Mrs. Miller, this is the United States NSA. We're calling to inform you that we have identified an ISIS cell inside your borders" "BUMBOCLAAT! Ya mus be crazy, mon! I deal with dis RIGHT AWAY, mon..." -click Cue explosion in Kingston. Repeat for every other sovereign country with any kind of sense, changing only the accent.

+1 :fuuuu:

Wow dude, a Meniscus TRANSPLANT. That sounds legit.

:lolguy:

If it's already out there, then why the fuck aren't folks more aware of it? shit, you would think some soccer mom whose kid was affected by this would be out on the campaign trail espousing it's benefits to the world at large.

There needs to be an app for that. Seriously. you are getting in your car, turn on the app. It automatically silences your ringer/vibrate function and alert notification. Also, when it receives a call or a text, it automatically responds with a text letting the person trying to reach you know that you are currently driving, and that you will be notified of their attempt once you reach a safe place to chat. Hell, you could probably get that funded by the .gov and make a mint. Cell phone carriers would be selling it as a free service with their phones.

No one needed to pay for you to lose (spelled it correctly for you, smart guy) your own argument. The rest of us knew what the outcome of this would be from the beginning.

I will never complain about the traffic in Columbus again. I LONG for the days of putzing away on 670....

"Right" and "Wrong" in this case are totally subjective, Steve. Some of us will think you are wrong, others that you are right.

So, why did you create this thread again? It sounds like you already have your mind made up, dude.

Your gut, the fact that it is coltboostin making the offer, and smiley face at the end of it. I'd take those odds.:lolguy:

Jesse, "faster" does not necessarily = "more fun". I KNOW that a lot of new automatics shift faster and more aggressively than I do. I also know that a lot of that translates into faster 1/4 mile times out of the automatics. None of that makes those cars more fun, to me. I do not want to be a passenger in my own car, I want to DRIVE it.

Barf.
