Gearbox announced as such during their PAX panel. They weren't able to do that last time because of how the contract was written for the B2 season pass (you get the four pieces of DLC, but the new stuff was separate since they didn't think they'd make them at the time), but the new contract is all Pre-sequel DLC is covered by the Season Pass.
That is awesome news. I shouldn't complain too much since I got everything on sale last go round it only ran something like $75 or so, and the only piece I didn't grab was the psycho. For the level of enjoyment and amount of hours I got out of it, it was still a bargain. It's cool of them to include everything this time around though, they would have gotten my money anyway.

Drama Kinging it. My hemoglobin is at 5.4 g/Dl.

Weird right? I'm fine with it, but imagine you get a note from a group of doctors, specializing in internal medicine stating this:

"Mr. Awesome (the rest is word for word)

Your lab results bring immediate attention to your health. You are above and below normal ranges for normal health that raise concern. Your hemoglobin is especially low, which may be due to weight loss or nutritional deficiencies. However, the lab findings do not explain your symptoms, which causes concern. These concerns need to be addressed as soon as possible, and further tests will be necessary"

My blood tests have more asterisks than Mark McGuire's HOF ballot. Vital Failure is around 6 and I'm at 5.4. My wbc is fine, but my rbc is barely above 1.

Crazy thing is that I don't feel weak, dizzy, or dumb. As a matter of fact, I feel great. But my blood tests look like a D graded paper from the second grade. Lots of red checks.


Ech. Whatever it is I'll kick some ass and deal with it.

In western NC it's called Liver Mush, in Eastern NC it is Liver Puddin. I just call it delicious. Love that stuff pan fried with cracked black pepper and a tad of yellow mustard. I think it's just corn meal and liver, but it is something lovely.

Thanks duder.

One of the benefits of living where I live is that you are surrounded by physicians and nurses. Having a sexy nurse friend stop by later today to go over my "counts" with me tonight. I feel fine, but on paper I'm next to dead. Hell if I know.



edit* Looks like I'm needed in Chicago to fuck up some jerks.

Ticked: After a whole week of waiting for Time Warner to come after we placed our order, we called again and they said we weren't in their service area... I live right off some of the busiest routes in Maine and people use my road as a passthrough. I'm kind of annoyed that we're not covered considering that.

Smile/Annoyed: We're covered by another decent ISP, so calling them in a little bit. Still nothing compared to what we were going to be getting. Oh well.

Luke, get better soon!

I'm glad chef confronted the asshole, but I'm so with you on this.

Being a dick is one thing...We've all been a slapnuts before, but owning up to it isn't difficult. it doesn't take much pride to say, "Yeah, I was a jerk. My bad". But to beat up someone for calling you out is nonsense.

Plus, three on one? Against a pastry chef?

Last pastry chef I worked with could bench 400. They are not all featherweights.

Sorry to hear about your medical stuff Luke, but knowing you youll have it beat in a few weeks.

Ticked - lost out on a deal for a Blast City that was local due to someone getting there first. But found someone else locally that has one so I am trying again.
