    I've got a few good cake recipes, too. Also got one for swiss buttercream icing, sweet, but not a sugar bomb like the canned icings generally are.

    The noodles aren't cooked in broth, they're cooked separately in another pot with just water. Probably should edit that to clarify.

    I just helped my mom make some spaghetti bolognese yesterday. The majority of our recipes are never exact measurements, it's always "Until it looks right" or "To taste". This recipe is very flexible, you can make as much or as little as you want. What you'll need: 1lb ground beef, 93% Lean, 7% Fat Cubed or Diced Ham Beef Sausage, quartered Carrots, chopped Celery, chopped 1 Sweet/Vidalya onion, diced Tomato Paste (We go for the Hunts brand that's seasoned, small can.) Chicken bouillon Basil Oregano Thyme Salt Black Pepper Spaghetti noodles Brown ground beef in a large pot, set beef aside in a small bowl Throw diced onions in and let them cook for a bit Add celery, stir every now and then. Add carrots, cook until veggies soften a little. Add in ground beef, sausage, and ham until the ratio of veggies to meat is about the same, or more depending on your preference; let cook for a few minutes. Add in enough water to just cover everything, add in tomato paste, stir together until well blended Add in Oregano, Thyme, Basil, Salt, and Black Pepper to taste Let this simmer for about 20 minutes. In another pot, start the water for the noodles, add salt to water for flavor if you wish. In another container add some chicken bouillon to some warm water , to taste. Once the 20 minutes are over, add chicken stock, turn heat up slightly, let simmer for 5 minutes, pull off stove. Once the noodles are done and drained, add a little butter for flavor and so they don't stick together Serve bolognese in a bowl over pasta, add a tiny bit of cheese if you would like. This makes excellent leftovers, reheats perfectly well. Can't wait to make this again in a month or two.

    Also do not buy the Exp Bonus in the Tavern if your level is lower than 50, it's just not worth it for the amount of mana you need to spend. Afterwords, do it, especially once you hit 60+ where you can easily make that 70K back. Another big problem is that you will run into a wall of being way OP for Insane difficulty but be severely UP for Nightmare difficulty. I can manage Nightmare Survival on one single level, and it still requires maintenance and actual participation in combat, and it's still cutting it close a lot of the time, and requires that I use my Apprentice, EV, Monk, Summoner and Countess/Squire to build. That's 5 separate characters I need to level and gear up just to do a single level where it's not uber likely to get epic insane loot. And those all have to be Tower builds, so any DPS has to come from weapons and armor only, which Hero damage is reduced on NM mode, while Pet damage has been increased, oddly enough. Until you get to the point where you can use your own towers to level your own heroes, I would advise you build up your heroes to be DPS first, later you can respec them to a Tower build. Do not worry about picking up every piece of equipment that drops, once a new wave starts, all items on the ground and loose mana are collected and the total is sent to your bank if you're alone, or split evenly between all players in the game. While I generally hate playing with other people, your very first character will have to be played with others, as soloing it will be incredibly difficult as your towers are utterly incapable of handling themselves, while your meager damage output will cause troubles on Foundries and Forges for your very first Ogre. A side effect of playing with others is that more players equals more monsters, which ends with more experience.

    In this thread, color fascists. Seriously, the orange is hideous and clashes with just about every theme. Especially Deviant 3.

    All white with color accenting is still boring. But, what, has he suddenly managed to integrate cloaking/stealth tech into the suit? Even then he could have gone for something better than Blank Slate.

    I wouldn't say it looks "feminine" per se, but it looks boring. And there's one thing that Tony Goddamned Stark does not do. Boring.

    Also will not ship out with pools or infants. I repeat. Will not have pools or infants in the base game.

    Oh for fuck's sake. Can we stop with this whole "Modern life/Advanced technology! EVERYTHING IS WHITE, COLOR DOES NOT EXIST EXCEPT FOR BLUE LIGHTS AND GREEN LAWNS" bullshit? White is just so fucking sterile, boring, emotionless, and evokes the feeling of a hospital room. And for fuck's sake, Iron Man's red/gold was goddamned iconic! Are they trying to evoke the feeling of the old Iron Man when he was all silver? NOT FUCKING WORKING.

    Against my better judgement, I'm playing Spacechem again.. How the fuck do people manage to complete some levels with only a single reactor?

    Hatoful Boyfriend was seriously popular - or at least widely known about on the internet - a few months back. I think they might have just purged it from their memory.

    There used to be an option when editing posts to change whether or not the Edited By line was shown for that post, but it seems to have vanished.

    I really wish they could have done something else other than go "Oh no! Thor's lost his powers again! Let's pay attention to this other person while we ignore Thor completely and then check up on him every now and then to make sure he's still breathing." I'm not against a diverse cast, but really, quit fucking with what's already there, make it diverse by adding new things

    Marvel has announced that Thor is now a woman

    It still doesn't really make much sense to demote M!Thor just to have F!Thor take over, even if temporary. Besides, what the fuck are we going to call them? Marvel's already stated that it's not She-Thor or Thorita, just Thor... Which means we have Thor and Thor...

    Marvel has announced that Thor is now a woman

    The whole thing is that Thor becomes unworthy to wield Mjolnir and ends up losing the title of Asgard's God of Thunder entirely, however he still fights with the Avengers and is seen in a later scene with a mechanical arm and a giant battleaxe. I'm still not really sure why they decided to do this, but, y'know, comics.
