I was going to mention that myself.
My impression of Lollipop on my Nexus 7 was less than stellar and I was seeing a lot of performance issues. 5.2 isn't out yet, so unless CMod worked some serious wizardry, I don't have high expectations for CMod 12.
I mean, I haven't really used it much yet, it's just different, which is annoying.
Oh shits I didn't even know about this. Is this something I should be putting on my Nexus 5? Someone exprain prease.

you're not in the 1+1 club
Well it depends what "something" he's referring to.
If he's referring to Lollipop (the name for Android version 5), then no, I wouldn't recommend installing it, though you might already have it if you always take your software updates on you phone (esp since the Nexus line gets Android updates more or less right away). Particularly on older hardware, battery life and performance issues with Lollipop seem to be pretty common, and IMO don't outweigh the benefits from the new features (which are pretty minor, all told).
Regarding CyanogenMod (which is it's own cut of Android, and what the 1+1 uses by default), you don't actually need to be using a 1+1 to get it. That said, it's a little bit non-straightforward to install if you've never flashed a ROM to an Android device. There's an installer now I think that does things more or less for you, but IIRC that'll only give you the latest version, so if you want CMod 10 or 11 you're out of luck.
As far as whether CMod is "worth it" on an existing an Android device, that kind of depends on what you're looking for or care to invest effort in setting up. There's an article about why you'd want to use CMod over stock Android, and it does a good job of outlining some of the features and additions of CMod, but I'd do some reading on your own as well seeing as it's obviously going to be biased.
Myself I use CMod on the 1+1 cuz there's no real other option, and I use CM10 on my old Nexus 7 because it gives me some of the feature set I want from newer Android versions without a lot of the bloat/slowdown since the old Nexus 7 didn't seem to handle KitKat/Lollipop too smoothly.
Yeah lollipop is shit. I bit the bullet and updated a couple weeks ago and probably shouldn't have but bleh. No I was talking about this Cmod thing...I did bit of reading and I dunno if it's worth it for me though.
Me: Her early work was a little too "pop-country" for my taste, but when 1989 came out in 2014, I think she really came into her own, commercially and artistically. Her whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate song editing that really gives the songs a big boost. She's been compared to Lady Gaga, but I think Taylor has a far more relaxed, mellow type of music.

Mayweather apparently blocked Rachel Nichols and Michelle Beadle's credentials for the fight tonight(probably others too, but they're big names that have made waves). His camp is so salty about people calling him out for being a piece of shit as a person.

Was it in the vein of "Son, I am disappoint"?
Just gave me a vision of Alaric finally getting married to the girl of his dreams. He walks into her house to finally meet her parents for the first time, and sitting in the large velvet chair is his future father in law. The chair has its back to Alaric, and the man sitting in it faces the fire. Slowly however, the chair somehow swivels and instead of the burly, mustachio'd french man he expected, it's Jack motherfucking Ho saying "Son, Alaric, I am disappoint."
Alaric's tears seem to hang suspended in the air as he runs away.

Really been itching to play some DDR after some FGC guys brought in their custom setup to a tournament. Sucks that a ton of arcades/DnB's in the area removed their DDR/PiU machines but found one relatively closeby, and its DDR Extreme 2.
