Yeah, they're remarkably mediocre. It worked, but I'm glad as hell to have bluetooth now. I had to turn it off anytime I drove through Hartford because the radio transmissions from the city stations overpowered anything the little piece of crap could transmit.

My car has a cassette player and those adapters are infinitely better than the FM transmitter one lol.

This is what I use. I think any car new enough to not have a cassete deck would have the direct aux port or am I making stuff up? Now if only my music collection hadn't been lost somewhere in transmission over the past 10 years it would be more useful for car trips.

I was afraid that may be the case. That car sucks In the unfortunate middle ground it seems.

Hearthstone stuff:
I've been on the lookout for some more budget decks (I have 1400 dust and have yet to craft something, probably Rag or Leeory soon) and had a double warrior quest. found Reynad's budget aggro deck, had 95% of the cards already and wow. I've only played 5 games (all wins) but this thing just really goes off well, only had one or two awkward moments.
http://www.hearthitup.com/decks/warrior-decks/budget-rank-legend-reynards-warrior-deck/
What upgrades would you make with more cards etc? I've seen Leeroy/black knight/gorehowl suggested.

I agree, I had a couple cassette player ones, but the aux plug always broke after a while. The FM transmitter was my mom's and she wasn't using it, so I took it.

Yo Moonbear, how does this work? Should I be reporting people who say "rito pls", or is there some kind of meme hierarchy? Is the K-word just explicitly banned?

The original owner got it super bare bones as far as features go, I'm stuck with manual locks & windows. The only thing with any remote sense of flare was the stereo he put in afterwards. =[

I hope Alzadar was the one with the free reporting stat boost there.

Is it like the Japanese version of a troll, just wondering what the context is for using it.

Fair enough. I disapprove of "zero tolerance" policies and I think my use of the K-word was quite tasteful, unlike that philistine Slayer91. I suppose that's the point of a warning though.

Baited and outsmarted? That would be pretty dastardly.

The K-word is equivalent to [/sarcasm] basically.

my biggest complaint that the warning cited "not that funny"
well thats, just like, your opinion man

edit; wow the k-word was mentioned before i made my post
that undermines the hilarity of my post
i guess i have to kinda agree

k-word f-word and n-word is so dumb
maybe i should use the hangul for certain banned words to protect the children. Isn't there no hangul for F though?

First legendary (since Millhouse Manastorm does NOT count) is Baron Geddon. Not bad, but it seems like him and Lorewalker Cho are far more common to pull in packs than others. Anyone else feeling that?

As I understand it, the joke behind kappa is that stream monster is a derogatory term in the FGC for people who sit in stream chat and talk trash about players/tournaments/whatever without doing anything for the scene. And a kappa is literally a stream monster.

Legendaries I've opened (in order):
Ragnaros
Nozdormu
Leeroy Jenkins
Alexstrasza
Deathwing
King Krush
Harrison Jones
Nozdormu

Pretty good cards mostly, so that's a negative from me. Obviously there isn't a part in the HearthStone source code where card pack probability is doubled for troll cards.
