League of Legends. 

It's such a horrible fucking game.  Why do I keep playing it?  There are times when it's genuinely fun, but overall I'd say there's a 60% chance I'll walk away feeling like I wasted my time and a 40% chance that I'll walk away from it in a blinding rage because of mindfuckingly stupid balance issues.

Ok.  I know why I keep playing it.  The fast paced rpg mechanics are the most addicting I've ever seen, and everybody I know plays it daily, including my wife.  I wish it just didn't exist.  Someone needs to run over Riot HQ with a tank.

This.  So much this.  And on top of that I'm still a Noob to the game; it makes for so much RAEG.  Also miss fortune. GRRAAGGHEE!

I thouhgt the whole point of those was to generate enough rage to balance out mlp's unrageness.

I'm not sure there is anything that can properly counterbalance LoLraeg.

I just play Co-op vs. AI.

I like using Lux because she tells me to stay positive.

It's not that unusual to get addicted to terrible games. Back in my wc3 days, I played horrible maps just because they were terribly unbalanced.

One game (called Golem Wars) was unmitigated trash, but brilliance somehow showed through by players competing over who can use the most broken strategy. There were dozens of terribly overpowered heroes and spells, yet it worked a sort of unholy balance because ridiculously overpowered strat A was countered by strat B, which was countered by C, etc etc etc.

New players figured out one overpowered strategy and thought themselves invincible. It was so, so much fun to crush their egos.

Well, that's what happens when you ban ALL cookies Cookies, while also being delicious, are what keep you logged in. Guess what happens when you ban cookies from bay12forums.com?


(I may be wrong)

No cookies = no persistent logins ever, except in very very limited cases. Cookies are hardly worth whining about, except for Flash cookies and the rare trojan cookie or somesuch. You either deal with it or stop complaining about your login nonpersistence. (or yell at google, I guess.)

Ghostery + Priv3 + Adblock Plus + NoScript works fine if you're that security-minded, but (non-flash, non-infected, uncorrupted) cookies are a basic bit of how websites work.

Just set it to only use cookies per session.

I don't know about other browsers but I'm sure you can do it on them as well, but Opera has a setting to ask permission when accepting a new cookie. Which can admittedly get annoying. You can also edit each site's preferences so you can turn off cookies completely but then allow certain sites through, like bay12.

Pennsylvania passes law stating that doctors can request access to information about fracking to use in diagnosing and treating patients, but they are forbidden from releasing any of this information to the public.

That confused the hell out of me until I read the article to learn that fracking is something to do with gas extraction rather than a euphemism for fucking.

Geez.  That's pretty shady.

It's both.

Basically, you frack the Earth with heavy machinery until it gives you what you want.
