Level 1000 in GTAO.

Last year i started to practice bjj, a uncomfortable step for a 45 yr old man who never did any martial arts before. Once comfortable with the close physical contact it has proven a fun and good workout, with a great group of people. This summer, feeling encouraged practicing with another club for five weeks on our vaccation, i signed up for a competition. So the last two months i have trying to prepare myself. Gave up on soda, candy, chips, cake.. all stuff i usually enjoy. Dropped down to 67 kg and worked on a gameplan. Yesterday it was time to go. We were about 15

Promotion and a raise. So yes!

A car. Did not own one before, but drive a company owned minibus/van seating 9. So this is alot different. Its a Benefactor Blista hybrid 😀

Rank 1000 and 2400 race wins in GTAO. To celebrate I bought the Dominator GTT because @Beezkicked my *ss with one so it is obviously a must own for muscle races

Flew from CA to Boise Idaho today to have a two meeting with my boss.

This is a event where you get to use the creator in GTA. If you have never done that before, its time to try it out! What do we do? 1. You pick a combination of one sponsor and either a manufacturer, class or area. For exampel; Sprunk Karin, Fukaru Supers, or Atomic Grapeseed. 2. You create a transform race using the combination. (A race sponsored by Sprunk in all Karin vehicles, or a race in Grapeseed sponsored by Atomic, you get the idea.) 3. Leave a note in the description what vehicles one might need if its intended for customs on. 4. We try and help eachother test

I’m working in Cornwall just across from Plymouth, Devon today. So having lunch by the water. That’s Devonport royal dockyard in Plymouth on the other side of the estuary.

Rally/RallyX tonight. Mix of contact and non contact races. Will try and use sports/sport classic and off road classes primarily. Hope to see folks there. Post any job recommendations and will include them

Might we see some players who haven’t played in a while at our 5 year anniversary? @Banketelli@JustHatched @Dodge @D-Rocks @The_Lady_A @WasHatched @djw180 @Spinnaker1981 @DeaD_GooN @Dead-Demon RSVP!

Here is my job. Zion clique trophy club s. You start out in a (custom) Sports. One of these: Omnis Lynx Hotring ZR350 Sprunk Buffalo Comet Safari On each lap you may stay in whatever your driving, or enter one of the four pits to transform into either one of these: Zion (2nd pit) Clique (3rd pit) Trophy Truck (4th pit) Club (1st pit) The four pits pictured below. The cars are picked to match performance, yet different class, but also a mix of cars most players likely own. According to Broughy these

Made a trip to the salvage yard to grab the parts needed. Got the stuff home and put it back together. There were no head lights on the cars in the salvage yard so we had to order new ones. once they get here the car will back on the road.

Stop what you’re doing now and book a ticket to see Free Guy. This film is made for people on this forum. Do it now, you won’t regret it. Can’t give you a synopsis because of spoilers. Just watch it. Avoid the official trailer too. Gives away too many spoilers. Better to go in not knowing what to expect

Just over 15hrs before we celebrate the longest running playlist in XDBX history. I still see many names missing from the RSVP list. Get on it people, this is a historic event for our crew. Be a part of it, dont remember it as something you wish you'd been there for. @Crawford1872 @TheFox2000unit @zmurko@BryannosaurusRex @Spinnaker1981 @Squirrel @Fido_le_muet @ErnYoung @DefaultBling @Smurf @ssracingn2 @PretendWereDead @Dodge @JustHatched

There is this free 3rd Person shooter game called Rogue Company on all the expected gaming platforms. I was playing a 4v2 match where I kept dusting off the players while my team mate (some French kid yelling over comms, clearly of the pom poms variety nestled away safely giving strong moral support) as I round after round defended the point of interest. They got done up neatly in that 4v1, the scoreboard was 49 Eliminations to maybe 5 deaths. That game needs better shooters playing, It feels like me against bots at this point.

MUST HAVE PIRATE OUTFIT!

American Graffiti (1973) Reading that the film is set in 1962 with a heavy 1950's soundtrack didn't sound like something I would enjoy watching because I am no fan of that era in America. To put it in perspective, out of all the songs, I think I genuinely liked about three of them. I am just not a fan of that time period. But seeing the cars at the start of the film really got me excited because I do think cruiser culture of that era was magnificent, so I figured that would be the best part of the film. But as the film progressed, I found myself really attached to the characters, an

Subaru's are a little more expensive or you need to get a few years older car to meet the same budget. Though if someone has some spare "change", I wouldn't mind one of these.I'm pretty sure it can handle a little bit of snow uphill... 😄

Um, the colours don't match....

Red Cliff (2008, Mandarin) Directed by John Woo it’s a historical Chinese War Epic featuring an actress who has just been in the news for being removed from history by China. I actually own the 5 hour version of this film but the theatrical version is fine for the film club.

Maria Full of Grace (2004) Spanish

Hodejegerne (Headhunters) based on a novel from one of my favorite writers, Jo Nesbø. Edit: Oh wait… Not in Norwegian? In that case I would like to nominate Der Untergang, one of the most impressive and realistic movies about WW2, ever made.

The wheel has been spun and the winning category for September's film club is... As nominated by @djw180 we'll be watching a film in a language we've not yet covered. So nominate any film you like as long as it's not in English, French, Norwegian, Korean or Japanese. My film nomination is from Italy, Federico Fellini's La Strada. The winner will be picked on Friday 🙂

We’ll it’s that time of year… how bout Back to School Movies?

“Where were you in '62?” Not about to graduate high school seeing as it was a quarter of a century before my birth. But thanks to the loving nostalgia of George Lucas's sophomore picture, American Graffiti; the cars, the music, the production and costume design all coalescing into a believable whole, I could swear that I was there. Set over a single night, the last night of the summer break, the film follows a group of recently graduated high school students as they contemplate their futures. There's Steve (Ron Howard), top of the class, dating the head cheerleader Laurie (Cindy Will

How to easily unlock ‘The Frontier’ outfit. Go to one of the Shipwrecks and collect it. Once you’ve collected the Outfit Scrap immediately close your game. After you’ve done that you can load back in and you’ll be able to use the same Shipwreck to collect all 7 Outfit Scraps Edit: This works flawlessly, I managed to get the outfit in like 10 minutes.

@pete_95973 I’ve been meaning to make an appearance. I’ll be there.

Not sure where to put this, I was checking my awards and apparently I have unlocked the R* verified T-shirt. This shirt is in my wardrobe forever, I never realized it was the verified T-shirt. Does anybody also has this award unlocked?

I couldn't possibly miss this. One of my favourite playlists from back when there were playlists twice a day, everyday, and it's still going strong with a healthy turnout each week. Seeing different people each week as well as the regulars is proof that this is a well-loved playlist. I make an effort to be awake early every Sunday morning so I can join this. Thank you Bro's for the years of hosting you've done (and sharing the time with H2Hs and special events). I look forward to another 5 years and hopefully more.

I'm a maybe for the 5 year anniversary edition. I have other plans that day and I don't think I will be home on time. Might join half way through the playlist.

For me this is George Lucas' best, and I say that as massive Star Wars fan. It's set in the early 1960s and is a story of four 17 year old Californian boys as they spend their last night before two of them leave to 'head back East' to go to university. I remember an interview with George Lucas I saw a long time ago, long before I had seen this film, and I seem to recall him saying that whilst this is not really semi-autobiographical, it is based on the sort of things he and his friends did when they were the same age, cruising the str*p in a mid Californian, smallish city. It's made as fo

Apologies from me also, completley forgot I had to take the youngest to a high school open evening (when did that happen), literally just got back in the door, I'm having a couple fo strong polish lagers, watch the match, then bed

I ordered a cheap 2nd hand copy from Amazon. Checked it would play on a UK DVD player. Did not check the language options though. It's only subtitle option is Japanese! Fortunately however it looks like there are a number of websites with free versions. So I should still be able to watch this.

La Llorona (2019) This is one of those legends that hits home because of how deeply ingrained it is within my Central American culture warning us about the phantom woman named "La Llorona", the "Weeping Woman". The earliest texts to mention her were found in Mexico City, Mexico in 1550. The Aztec origins depict the woman weeping from hunger. After the arrival of the Spaniards, the tale changed and became about an indigenous woman who was seduced by a wealthy Spaniard who abandoned her after she had conceived two children with him. She was so distraught that in an act of revenge, she cur

Yes, depending on the heat in my dining room at the time, I will be there!!!

The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Big Foot (2018) dir Robert D. Krzykowski. Sam Elliot and Aidan Turner play the elderly and young Calvin Barr respectively. The former taking the main role with the latter's scenes in flashback. The title tells you exactly what Barr did; there is no suspense. As a young service man in the 2nd world war he performs an heroic deed at great risk to himself, that somehow manages not to alter the course of the war. As an old man he is called on to perform another service as The Bigfoot is found to be carrying a deadly virus that could wipe

I thought I'd pick something in a different language to those already nominated. So after a quick search on imdb I am going for Krzysztof Kieslowski's, A Short Film About Love - Polish

Holy crap crapier crap crap. Sideways Paulie in the house

Nominations so far: Silent films Films not in English, French, Korean, Norwegian or Japanese Romantic comedy Back to school films Oscar screenplay (winners and nominees)

I might join at a later moment, going to a football match (or soccer if you prefer..) first...
