I have recently acquired Mortal Kombat X. The Blind swordsman Kenshi was my favorite character. My friend always used Scorpion.

This was against the AI. I have fought my friend countless times on Mortal Kombat Deception for the PS2 14 years ago. His teleporting firekicks were the cheapest. I must master the flying sword attack to stand a chance in a real fight. Our PPV match will be in 2 weeks.

I bought Ghost Recon Wildlands. Do you have Xbox Live Gold blue? Huge 60GB file. My Xbox one is downloading the game at 140mb/s - 160mb/s.

sadly i don't, I tried it for a few days but canceled it.
I didn't like how the brats would come in, and just be brats, and mess up my gaming.

Ghost recon Wildlands started out kinda boring but got good after I found my favorite assault rifle of all time the Tar21. Spent $30 on attachments with my credit card.

The jet looks light. I hope it's safe.

I ordered this Fossil watch on Amazon. An absolute beauty.

Nice! I'm an automatic guy, but after having owned a couple of Seiko Automatics (which work well for the money spent no doubt, for an Auto), I'm thinking my next step up in the future could possibly be a Tissot Automatic...

I could see me wearing that watch with that dark finish, I like it, and the blue contrast sets it off.

Brought my stupid car to the dealer. Another water leak. Warranty expired. Service guy says it'll cost $500-$1000. Probably another clogged drainage on the sunroof. I wouldn't know. They will probably tell me it's something else this time.

I would fight that, or try RF, if it's reoccurring they need to fix it right.

They replaced the seal. $611. At least it's fixed now. Good thing it's summer. The soaked floor dry fast or else it'll develop a mouldy smell. The lease ends September. Gonna buy it out for $13,000. Maybe sell it in 2 years.

I love how big the cargo space in my car is. Was able to fit a big old drawer for disposal. Don't think I'll be able to go away from suv for a more sporty car.

$611 for a seal, that's just robbery, and let me guess it's a dealer only right now.

I myself would like another Mustang, but yeah I need something I can carry stuff in.
So, my next car will likely be a truck, or another SUV.

$611 includes labour. The time to troubleshoot the problem. They service hundreds of Hondas. In reality they knew what was the problem just from a quick inspection.

I choose the Chevrolet Camaro over the Ford Mustang. Insurance here is a bitch. $2500 a year to insure my crappy Honda. The Camaro and Mustang are considered sporty type car according to insurance company so therefore more expensive to insure. It'll probably be like $3500+ a year. Insurance for my dad's 2012 Mercedes-benz C Class is $2700. These are prices with no fault accidents and full discount.

Maybe a Japanese car is more reliable. Like the Toyota 86. Starts at only $29,999.
