Per Usual: Images and links are from Lexicanum or the Warhammer 40k wiki
Except for those from youtube of course.
No actual items to hand out, just my everlasting admiration if you know the provenance of the quote in the title.
As my addiction to Satisfactory continues to evolve, I am now watching videos about how to play a computer game, while I play the game in the background. I must say, I have a long way to go before I can complete such masterpieces as I have seen created, it is like creating one of Gaudi’s finest Barcelona buildings out of the basic set of Lego. I have much to learn. While doing this I also came across Stan and Token playing Warhammer in the Spring Break Episode of South Park, so in honor of that I am sharing my favorite Youtube creators who focus on Warhammer Lore. Also, Riki-Tiki sent me this which I found hilarious:

First up, and the one who got me started down this very, very deep and extensive rabbit hole we have Baldemort:
He has a fantastic voice to listen to while he delves into the lore of Warhammer and he does so as a story teller, usually telling a short story he has created based on the lore he will cover in the video. He also has several original serial stories he does which bring the lore to life, he is a great story teller.
Next we have Luetin09, who I have also enjoyed his channel for quite awhile, always well produced, nice use of music, not much in the way of visuals, because Games Workshop seems to have an AI (or servitor) that scours the web for anything that could be considered as infringing and can fire off a cease-and-desist in a nanosecond. He also uses stories to bring the lore to life. He also goes just right amount of depth, you get a good idea about the subject, and he also discusses the lore in terms of the game as well.
And last, but definitely not least, we have Oculus Imperia who does his videos as an actual character – a historian working both for Guilleman and the Inquisition, voluntarily for Gulleman, voluntold by the Inquisition to do his job, send the Inquisition select bits and leave certain things out of what goes to Guilleman. He does a really neat video about his “induction” into working for the Inquisition. So everything he talks about is done as if this is history he has unearthed and is sometimes scared or bothered by what he has found. The video comes across as listening to a friend talk about some of the things he has recently learned and his worries about the fall out of this information becoming widely known. He does a really good job of creating the right atmosphere for this information to be disseminated.
Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull throne!
I should be online this evening and commenting myself. After visiting Washing State last week, I was able to restock my consumables as well as some smokeables, so I will be blazing while watching anime (no choice as of yet, maybe Arifureta or Chainsaw man). Why yes, my wife is traveling, how could you tell. Have fun this evening watching whatever form of sports ball you enjoy – ice or dirt.
Because neither the Stars or Wild actually exist — the Wild really are the Houston 500s of hawkey– I hope this series goes seven, and every game at least three OTs.
Bonus points if the winner gets swept in the Second Round.
Found this by accident, but it’s a pretty kickass update to an 80’s pop sound. Just like that knee replacement I’m probably overdue for!

Best part of the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games.
Nothing like an OT goal disallowed by VAR. I’m sure the Ice Wapitis won’t rue this at all.

I thought not having a home game until Saturday meant I could use the week to get caught up on sleep and be well rested. Turns out instead that I will be taking a few cat naps in between main lining playoff hockey for the foreseeable future.
You poor fool.
FREE. HOCKEY. EVERYWHERE. ALL AT ONCE!
Glad I don’t have to work tomorrow.
Not sure I get this reference.

Only time I’ve been in the pit and thought “you know, this might not be a good idea”. Lollapalooza back in the early 90’s in what was then, I think, called Great Woods. Sod flying everywhere and the mosh pit on the lawn on a steep hill. Wound up hauling a friend of mine out of it when he decided to crowd surf. He still had issues with his hip. Dumbass.

What is it about some franchises that just don’t change?
Terri Nunn was very attractive and had a very good singing voice. This is a bold take.

And Richard Blade cheated on her. It’s a very interesting story which he wrote about in his autobiography.
I’m going to start spamming this thread with songs I like until I decide to go to bed. I’ll also likely listen to those songs so this’ll be like 2-3 songs, max.

If I keep drinking beer I won’t be able to keep reading my current book, but since it’s about the Civil War and, unlike the GOP and it’s mouth-breathing adherents, I already know how that ends, fuck it.
“Was President Lincoln okay?”

“he was fine, Ralph.”
That might be my favorite thing the Simpsons ever did. My brother and I use that all the time when something’s going wrong. “The oil light’s on in my car, is that bad? It’s fine, Ralph.”

I saw that one but couldn’t bring myself to post it.
Somewhere an Australian woman with extremely questionable tattoos and/or political views is feeling a burning sensation in her ears.

This song always creeped me out, for some reason. Can’t tell if it is the song or the singer, Now I want to hear Eric Cartmen sing “All by Myself”. Or as sung by Aragorn at his wedding to Arwin “All by My Elf”
It’s an absolutely awful song. I can see a bunch of Tyranids singing it as they destroy another planet.
He was in a bubblegum band called the Raspberries before he went out by himself. My sister had one of their records. It had a scratch and sniff cover,lol!
Please tell me it smelled like raspberries.
Yeah and let’s not get started on the zipper on the front of the Sticky Fingers album…
It did!
Oh yes the old gimmicks.
Cutting back on the second beer, only 8%, (I am editing the hell out of these, or else it would look like a JJ Fozz bourble exclusive), and am about to try to trim my toenails. AMA!

A: Pumpkin Pi
I’m watching the Dirt, (casts wildly about Western Canada for a baseball team), ah fuck it, the Edmonton Oilers against the Dirt Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, (as opposed to the Dirt Dodgers, because unlike the Angels the Dodgers might have a chance at getting past the first round of the play-offs), and holy shit McDavid is just a massive cheat code.
First of all, it’s “Ice”, not “Dirt”. Second, it’s the Ice Inuits or Ice Wapitis now.
Otherwise, all correct.
I just finished a 10.4% barleywine that Makeitsnow sent me so a) fuck you and also b) you’re completely correct.
I work from home and have nothing scheduled until 11 tomorrow so I’mma go see what else he sent me.
/trading beers is awesome
He sent me one that is 13.6%, but I don’t have the guts to drink that on a Monday, after the barleywine I already had, when I have to work Tuesday.
That’s some Friday/Saturday stuff right there.
Panthers just tried to pull their goalie and he couldn’t get onto the bench.

Ayo shouldn’t you be growling in to the mirror with your wang wrapped in a bandana getting ready for the playoffs for your Krakheads?
I’m also busy compiling a list of everyone that didn’t pick them to advance out of the first round. Very busy because I’ve only found one person that did pick them.
Seattle has a team?
International Disgrace Gary Bettman has not stolen our Ice team yet. Unlike the reprehensible David “Burn In Hell” Stern.
So he couldn’t see over the front of that cart and drove into the

So my depositions this afternoon involved a car accident where the plaintiffs were in a car driven by their son, who was 15 at the time. It is completely illegal in CT for a 15-year-old to drive a car in CT, so I had a few questions on the subject. At one point I asked when they had started letting the kid drive and Mom replied, (through an interpreter), “13”
I was a bit taken aback by that, and let out a ‘Jesus Christ’ under my breath. Or so I thought, because after a moment’s pause the interpreter, who was doing a fantastic job, says “Jesus Christo” for everyone to hear and get on the record.
I just started laughing.
We know it went almost like this verbatim, so don’t lie.
Their attorney moving for “a bad Court thingy” would actually be one of their better moves.
If you are a parent,
menor al volante > padre borracho
it was toda la familia in the car, and no one was drunk. Just really, really, goddamn dumb.
“No no, our son’s name is Carlos.”
Were you at the deposition?
What the f*** hormel chili?
-Andy Reid, when told that he can’t order a tanker truck of their product.
They just had the weirdest commercial.
Andy Reid swimming in a pool of Hormel chili?
That would have made more sense.
I get convinced to try out games like Satisfactory, then find out I don’t really like them as much as I thought I would. For instance, the latest one was Dwarf Fortress. Friends were telling me it’s the awesomest game in the history of the personal computer*. Played it about three nights, and that was it.
Lately it’s been Brotato. You other old geezers might remember Robotron. Imagine that except you’re an armed potato.
*If you can get three other players, the awesomest game in the history of the personal computer is actually M.U.L.E.
My eye has started involuntarily twitching whenever someone around here says ‘dwarf’
Sure. Your “eye.”
“What’s it like?”
Satisfactory is me building complete industrial areas, get everything running smoothly, and then tearing it all down to rebuild to try to be more efficient and orderly. Over and over again.
Are we just ignoring the whole dwarf thing?
Nope, you actually mean Tunnels of Doom! Played on a Texas Instruments, loaded from a tape player. 4 players, all arguing and trying to nab the best swag by every one saying they are most suited to use. Good times.
pffft, if I had THREE friends why would I even need video games? Also, that 2188-89 pre-season ain’t gonna finish itself. To Pretend Manchester!
Heh heh. When the cat’s not home, the mice par-TAY, goes a local saying. Enjoy home aloness.
I was actually a caricature, eating from a pizza box I was balancing on my bloated belly, and laying on the floor. I love my life.
Are you sitting naked on a bean bag chair eating Cheetos?
Sir, there are some depths to which I will never sink!
Bean bag? Uncouth.

Fish hooks or blades on the scourge?
YES
Get creative! The only limit is your imagination. Well, and the blood loss, I guess.
I mean there is only so much area to flay, a vast area to be sure. Hooks would probably be faster, while blades could prolong the agony.
Fire ants.
Watching the marlins game and I’m loving the ADT patch on their uniforms. Because it just makes me think the owner wanted to place the same patch on his own security for more ad revenue.
The Astors have ‘Oxy’ on theirs, with raises a whole host of questions.
“You’d never catch the Rockefeller family being seen in public with such advertising attached to our name in such a pedestrian manner!”

Sign Hippo teh fuck UP!
Sadly I don’t think it’s the pill company, although given the ethics of the Astros, (and probably the Astors, which thanks to LemonJello will be a typo I never correct), it wouldn’t surprise me if they were dealing fentanyl on the side.
One minute into the Baldemort video and I’m like “yeah, I’m ready for this.”
Baldemort start running a vacuum, did he?
