I dunno, that picture in the first post seems to scream out "USE THE GCN CONTROLLER! IT'S BETTER THAN THE WIIMOTE WITH EVERY GAME!" to me.

Hm, I really think people who religiously choose the GCN controller over any type of Wiimote variation should REALLY give them a try for awhile, instead of just immediately reaching for the GCN controller.

Dunno, it just reminds me of right-wing folk who're just afraid of change. It irks me.

I've found the Wii Wheel to be a bit clunky first, and did consider switching to my Wavebird, but eventually I got the hang of it. Feels comfortable in my hand.

I'd take you up on that offer, but I'm not sure if Suffix would appreciate his name being used in such a way.

My votes, in no particular order except the first being my most favorite:

Majora's Mask
Ocarina of Time
Legend of Zelda
Wind Waker
Twilight Princess

Basically, every 3D adventure plus the very first.

I loved Majora most because it had a very dark story, and taught you how to make use of your time wisely. I got very good at that to the point where I COULD just goof off if I wanted to, and enjoy the scenery, and stuff. Music was pretty awesome, too.

I plan to; looks awesome.

I was asked for ID when I requested a ticket, so be aware, you'll definitely need someone over the age of 17 to get a ticket for you if you're not that age.

Saw Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay last night.

Definitely funnier than Go to White Castle. Go see it if you're over 17. =3

I would so Photoshop the novel to change Dorian Gray to Suffix's real name and put it in a quote and say "Fixed".

But, I'm so terribly lazy today. And MKWii is waiting for me to start playing it.

Fixed, sadly.

No no, college is much better, and real life sometimes is a bit more bearable than high school.

You're aware that the US didn't get MKWii yet, right?

Cover that in a spoiler! DX

You mean to say you weren't going to school regularly?

What? No.

Being a full time student at a college means you're taking a certain amount of classes in one semester. If you're taking less than the college's set amount of credits worth of classes, you're a part time student. You probably have other important things taking time in your schedule, work, family, etc. and don't have an ideal amount of time for taking classes, so you only take one or two.

According to the state, I needed 15 credits worth of classes to be considered a full time student, as well as for the grant I was signed up for. But, according to the college, I only needed 12 to be full time. I started out my semester with 15.5 credits of classes, more than enough. Had I been TOLD from the start I needed 15 for the grant, I wouldn't've dropped a class I felt wasn't necessary. The majority of the semester, I had 12.5 credits worth of classes. So while I was full time in the college, the state didn't deem this enough.

So, no grant, no money, no college again until August 2008.

But GUESS WHAT!
