I just realized that the custom control I was going to build is actually a much simpler collection of a couple of controls, and additionally a second control I was going to build is the exact same thing (with a different setter in the backend). Suddenly the task I'm working on goes from monumental to doable.

Reminds me of this. I'm sure a lot of people had this same problem.

Thanks for blocking the content in my country guys...

X-Play Presents: The Top 6 Most Annoying Sidekicks in Gaming

Here's what I just encountered: I'm almost dead, my sidekick has a full life bar. I open a secret area. The bastard shoots in there like his life depended on it -go figure- and steals the food right from under my nose!...

Asshole wouldn't have even known the food was there if I hadn't opened that secret area in the first place... :evil:

As for playing with a real friend. They all suck at this game!... :x

They blocked that :? Damn. Sorry about that. I didn't realize. Didn't mean for you to go hunting for it.

AH, SOF. The only reason I'd give a damn about the CPU buddy was only for the special power they'd possess (map/first aid), etc.

Ah, scientist sidekick...

I wouldn't mind him tagging along if I didn't have to keep an eye on him all the time. If he dies on his last life the game forces you to buy him back for £500. That's £500 I could've spent on other things. Grmpf...

Is it wrong that i feel bad marking down a paper when the student keeps saying "back in the day".

The student is a non-trad and talking about old school rap, so i understand why they are saying it but still not appropriate.

But then they talk about boom boxes and I tear up a little bit.
