I also don't like when women tell me that I'm inferior to them because they're women and I'm not. If I AM inferior to anyone, it certainly has nothing to do with one of my 23rd chromosomes being somewhat smaller than the other. Great. Make yourself better instead of spewing your closed-minded unfounded femiNazi tripe all over me.
I don't like cereal mascots. They're annoying, loud, and jump all over the place, scaring kids. Plus they're all a little too attatched to whatever cereal they're representing.
...Just thought I'd get that out in the open...
What annoys me is when the Rabbit takes the Trix, he never escapes before the kids realize the Trix is gone, but instead decides to gloat how good the cereal is before they capture him.
Did someone actually say something as idiotic as that to you? :S
Hey, ya know what I hate? Airplane food. What's up with that?
Ba-dumb-kssh!
But seriously, one thing I hate is how everybody says the GTA games are corrupting children. For one, they're rated M; children should NOT be playing them! Two, parents, if they want their kids not to play it, then they shouldn't buy it for them! It's not the store's fault; they need a parent's permission to sell M-rated games to minors. And finally, did you know that, ever since GTA III came out on the PS2 in 2001, juvenile crime rates have dropped? I don't have the chart on hand, but the chart was actually created by the government. So just how is Jack Thomphson getting his supposed "proof" that kids are all going insanely violent due to GTA (other than his harrasment, lying, insults, threats, and quoting the bible)? Forgery, most likely.
Anyhoo, that's the end of my rant. Glad to get that off my chest.
I'm annoyed by people who think emulation is a great evil.Not the emulation, but the actual replicas annoy me, custom stuff for emulators are okay for me, and downloading music is not "great evil" for me, unless it's supposed to be exclusively for the game, that would be the music just happens to be an exact replica of the games, so I don't mind if it was made from scratch or by people listening to the original, but don't go taking everything I say offensively or be annoying just because I beleive a certain thing.
You just want to shout "You're doing it all WRONG!!! You don't even know how to triple jump!!!"
I HATE IT when summer is symbolized by a sun wearing sunglasses. WHY THE DUKAR would the SUN weayr sunglasses? What is it protecting its eyes from?!?!?!?!?!? The EARTH?!?!?!?!
Insane Steve: As a prospective college student, one thing that bugs me is affirmative action and similar programs. Even after being toned down in 2003, it still leaves some people at a disadvantage. I look at surveys for college information that remind us that blacks, hispanics, etc. can recieve financial assistence, then look at the "ethnicity section," and hope fervently that it has a "Prefer not to disclose" option.
I hate it when peoples name that start with J because it reminds me of one person who hurt me (mentally and emotionaly).
*For all pronouns marked at such, I am using the masculine pronoun as an indeterminate gender pronoun because typing "his/her" is kind of long. My personal view is that the author typing the sentence use the pronoun of the same gender as the author himself* to denote someone of indeterminate gender. That is all.
Watch out, Jman. :P
By the way, [adult swim] was showing Saved By the Bell the other day.
Speaking of Cartoon Network, I hate what the channel's become in the last few years. Whatever happened to being "The best place for cartoons"? Now they seem more obsessed with beating Nickelodeon then airing quality cartoons both old and new. In fact, they've gone as far as airing live action movies, going against their mission statement, and have even shown interest in airing full time live action series as part of their program. I wouldn't mind this as much if they would just release all the classic Cartoon Cartoons on DVD so I don't have to watch a once great network die a slow painful death.

Whatever happened to Dexter's Lab? That show was the best!!! They're just getting rid of these good old cartoons like crazy, and almost every new show involves a butt-kicking protagonist who does nothing but hurts monsters. Not to mention the animation. It's just plain lazy.
Oh no! I wasn't talking about you, Jman! It's about real life, and she hurt me really bad. So I was hurt, sad, and angry at the same time. It happened about a year ago. And get this: she was my best friend. Can you imagine now why I'm so hurt?
Oy, that sounds rough. Just out of curiosity, what exactly did she do? (You don't have to say anything if you don't want to.)
Haha. And to think the other day I got kind of mad when I found a soda bottle that wasn't ours in the dumpster. I wasn't looking in the dumpster, I was throwing my trash away, it was on top of al the trash in there...Heh. People do that here too. I'd rather them put it in my trash than on the street or in my yard. So, I won't complain about it.
I get very annoyed by those people who ride their bikes in the street as though they were a car. Take note annoying street-hogging bikers: Get on the sidewalk. X(
I hate how hard Siphon Filter: Dark Mirror is. I mean, what's up with that? Ba-dumb-kssh!People throw garbage all over my lawn too. True, my lawn is right next to the street, but still.... I've found a half-filled Mountain Dew bottle at least once, and all kinds of other things like napkins and food wrappers. One time I even found a large Priority Mail box that was empty and beat-up, and another time I found a broken cassette tape (I don't know how that got there).
But really, why does everyone litter on our lawn? I don't just mean some butthead throws an empty beer bottle out of hit car and it just so happens to land on my lawn. I mean, I regularly find crap IN MY BACK YARD. There's no road anywhere remotely near there! Every day, I have to pick up everything from empty Vault bottles (why empty? Vault tastes great! I want it!) to old issues of the Washington Post to cigarette butts to broken DVD cases. Who even throws away this stuff out of their car? Even worse, what jerk would even walk up to our house and then jump his crap there?
Here's something that really annoys me: people who write game walkthroughs for gamefaqs.com who don't include tables of contents, or even worse, include tables of contents but modify the spacing of section headings in weird artsy ways like thisIf the writer is consistant you could search for "5 -- 7" or simply a word in the stage like "Manhattan". Besides, If you're gonna cheat there should be some work involved.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
S T A G E 5 -- 7 : R E T U R N T O M A N H A T T A N
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
making it impossible to use control-f to search for "stage 5-7".
I really like when walkthrough writers label the entries in the tables of contents with codes like "S57RTM" and then put those codes next to their respective sections, making it easy to use control-f to find what you need.
Anyone ever hear Weird Al's 'Barney's On Fire'? It's one crazy song.
OMG that is so kool! exsecialy the GTA one!!!!!!!
I really hate it when someone does something bad in our school and everyone gets in trouble for it.
For example, someone stole our teachers answer book, and now he's giving all of us more homework. >:#
16. But not knowing what President Abraham Lincoln is has to be one of the most asinine reasons of someone deserving to die I've ever heard. Ever. Pretty close to "drinking cola" -- which some girl once said, to me face, that I should do. Die because I drink cola. Seriously.
I was thinking something more like "never maturing or contributing to society" or something like that.
"Doctor, it hurts when I do this!"
"Then don't do that."
One other detail of note about this girl is that she was given the title of Prom Queen later that year. She was a freaking anorexic. Attractive face, but not an attractive person. AT ALL. This event was one of the key determining factors of me not going to Senior Prom the next year despite actually having a girlfriend to ask to it to the first time ever. Her reaction was one of the key determining factors in us breaking up soon after. (I.E., unfixible personality differences.)
Haven't had a girlfriend since. Ah well. C'est la vie.
Although, it enrages me, a LOT, when I see total jerks (for lack of a less offensive term) who are obviously drunk, and obviously don't care about women other than to make out with them/get in their pants stagger into a building drunk with something like 3 girls hanging from his shoulders. Honestly. What do you people see in these wastes of a human life that you don't see in someone like myself? This was probably the biggest cause of occasional periods of depression that I had in my second semester of college. I mean, almost everyone I know is dating or found someone to date when I met them, and I haven't even found someone I'd want to ask out (that isn't already with someone I respect enough to not try and ruin this relationship with.) - which is a bit frustrating. At times.
Well Im sorry for the word "wierd" but It tares at my self-esteem every time I think about the fact that I haven't ever had a girlfried, and I have been rejected by 4 girls already. To make it worse the girl I liked the most said I was "wierd" and made fun of me with her friends. Yet another completely ignored all my calls. I feel so alone. ;_;
I also hate it when you get attacked by a gang of girls. Its scary.Actually, it's not that bad if the girls chasing you are actually friends playing around or something, I usually get that if anything at all.
I think i hate all-girl school gangs, and being tied upside down.
Not to be racist...but the girls are
I do too. I hope I didn't get on anybody's bad side by saying that. It's just there are groups at our school. I'm in the semi-cool, semi-nerdy group. There's the popular group, the less popular group and the...mexicans. It's just how it is...I apologize.Don't forget the Yugioh-talking weirdos!
I like how girls are a completely different race than the rest of humanity.What?
That was sarcasm directed at G-Dawg's post which I kind of misread and kind of didn't.
Kind of.
Considering the Hopeful Thread was posted a bit after the Angst Thread, I'm surprised at the ratio of posts also -- But I personally expected a LOT more angst posts.
As a continuation to rubberducky's rant, I hate how today's "musicians" are judged solely on appearance, and not on useless things such as how well they sing. I mean, apparantly all you have to do to be a pop star nowadays is look "good" (By good, I mean superficially good. After 13423 hours of makeup) and lip synch with some degree of accuracy.
And the people who write lyrics for popular music nowadays need to be replaced by a more talented group. I'd recommend a large collection of monkeys pounding keys on typewriters.
Dude667: How the crap do they hang you in trees?
Wait are you complaining about this...or saying something from the talking before.
I like it when the things I eat are dead.
The rabbit was uncooked.
Dude, you're the Chef! Surely you of all people can cook it! jkHahahahahahahahaha
My DS's speakers crackle sometimes when the sound gets a lower tone. I even sent it to Nintendo of America to get it fixed, but they said they couldn't find a problem!! I guess I am just going to have to stick with it.That's not just your DS. All DSs do that. I think headphones get rid of the crackle though, try that.
The R button on my DS only works intermittently. Some days, it'll work just fine; others, it won't work at all. It's way out of warranty, so I bought a set of screwdrivers off of eBay so I can open it and possibly fix it. If I can't, then it's a perfect excuse to buy a DS Lite!
I'm sorry, neotev. I shouldn't have said that. It wasn't really anything you did, just that you got unlucky at me finally getting fed up with polls like that (there have been a lot).It's all right Lizard Dude I was not having a good day yesterday and anyone that knows me knows that I'm get really defensive when people insult me.
P.S. Just because I'm a mod doesn't mean I'll ban you or something if you insult me. Equal opportunity insulting for all! ;)

They both worked, but the only thing I was able to remove was the battery cover. Guess Nintendo dosen't want me to mess around with their product.
I'd like to know who the heck made it fact that gays are evil.
Meh. I was kinda going to get a new DS anyway. I have my eye on one of those sparkly DSes at Nintendo World (http://www.nintendoworldstore.com/).No offense, but those look kind of hideous. XD
The Fundies.
And they only answer to GOD, so they're obviously correct. And if you disagree with them, you're going to hell.
OBVIOUSLY.
</blatant sarcasm>
It's also possible to argue that it's natural. I had a homosexual dog. That's all I'm saying about that, but homosexual behavior in nature has been documented.
That's funny, because, ya know, if it were unnatural, why do people and other organisms display homosexual behavior even if it can't result in reproduction?
Just because things are being used for reasons they weren't "intended" for doesn't automatically make them wrong. Homosexuality is just a slightly more extreme than usual example of this.
But of course, if you don't consider human life sacred, I don't know if I can argue this with you.

I was going to rebute this by pointing out that your argument assumes that ALL inconsistancies in life are wrong (The "no gray area" fallacy that I see a LOT in religious arguments),
I'm not going to post my ANGST when I lose a baseball game...it's happening WAY to often.One year I was on a team that lost EVERY! game! We were Horrible!

WTD?!? The school's making us run the 2x800 tommarow (that means that we have to run 800 meters)!!! I'm going to sue if they keep torturing us.
That's what we're doing tommarow. Either that, or we have to run the dreaded big loop (equal to the perimiter of a football field). I'm going to boycott by walking insted of running. The list of distances we had to run in this unit:Heh, boycott...
Guess what THAT WASN'T FUNNY nor was it ANGST.
It was had to be there moment.
He doesn't even need it much considering in our household, we have 3 DS's.
I just discovered that I can unlock stuff in Advance Wars: Dual Strike by inserting the GBA Advance Wars 1 & 2 cartridges into the DS. Of course, I don't have either of the old cartidges, having traded them in at EB Games when the new Wars games game out. I'm furious. I intentionally go out of my way to avoid any games that work in conjunction with other games, except in rare cases when I would naturally own both games anyway (e.g. Metroid Prime/Metroid Fusion). I can no longer enjoy Advance Wars: Dual Strike, because I will always know that my game can never be complete. The Wars series is dead to me now. I'm going to trade in Advance Wars: Dual Strike at EB Games tomorrow out of spite.
Sooner or later we'll all be dead to each other. >.<

Why? That sounds like torture if you ask me. 'Twould be boring.Living forever would be torture? I've always thought of torture being closer to death.
It would be painful, though, seeing all of your friends and family die off, knowing that you'll never see them in the afterlife.
"Hey, let's see what happens if we shoot the bottle rocket at John's face! Duhhuhuhuhuhh!"Brilliant idea! Muhahaha...
Within the last 5 days, I have either directly witnessed or at least seen the evidence of a 300 lb. naked woman urinating on Soul Calibur II in an arcade, an old man walking through the mall not realize he was defecating leaving a 100m trail of pants-funneled excrement along the ground, and a giant dukar that someone took on the floor of the bathroom in Hastings where I work.
Why do authority figures (most frequently people running public schools) nowadays feel that the only way to discpline one individual's transgressions is to punish an entire group of people, all but one of which had absolutely nothing to do with anything? Do we nuke entire towns when one person murders somebody because "the entire town needs to be taught a lesson?" NO. All these people are doing is fomenting resentment against the individuals involved, and absolutely nothing positive is actually accomplished. It's a horrible system that needs to be stopped but probably won't be.I agree. Seems to me that they think it's too hard (and/or time consuming) to punish a single person.
Whenever one of my teachers punished the whole class like that, it was usually because the person who misbehaved or whatever had to be a total pansy and not speak up about what they did. The teacher unfortunatly had no other solution at the time, so in a case like that, I blame the student. It makes me angry to no end whenever one of my fellow students chooses to follow the path of dishonesty in such a manner. Otherwise I agree with you, IS.In such a case like that, it almost seems that the teacher thinks that we all know who did something and that we will "punish" that person ourselves. I really hate that.
I hate:The ANGST is strong with this one.
Islamic extremists like Osama.
Paris Hilton, she's such a whore!
Angelina Jolie, her lips look like two slices of raw tuna and I don't care if she's going into labor again!
Tom Cruise, he should shove some pinecones up his butt if he's so crazy! Also, he's an attention whore.
Anime-spin offs that are made in ze land of ze French like Totally Spies. If you want a GOOD show with female protagonists, even dubbed Sailor Moon is better, and I haven't even seen it! (Because I'm a guy and SM is for girls and not boys)
It seems like nobody is using the quote button now. If you just want to quote one sentence from a post, use the button and then delete what you don't want within the tags. If you're trying to quote multiple posts, there's a little "Insert Quote" link next to every post when you're posting. Just scroll down to the topic's last 10 posts when you're making a new post and click the link.I used the quote button. Happy?
However I do not understand why you like Steve or Ashley in the first place. Do I really have to say it? I mean come on. Just look at those two. Do I really have to tell you why?
Uh, yeah, Please do tell me why.
I'm sorry Mike, I just can't. I know that this is your life to live and not mine. It would not do you any good if I told you what I think and what I would do.
smfan is right about marioguy. I remember seeing his posts. UVG also was annoying, but he recently returned as TLW, with new mannerisms.
TLW? Is that an abbreviation, or an actual username? I haven't seen anyone around with the username of "TLW"....Shush, man! You might hurt someone's feelings! How'd you feel if YOU were The Last Wombat, huh?
ProTip: When people use that annoying schtick, copy-paste their miniscule text into the URL bar of your browser. That's the quickest way I've found to read it. Chupperson's method seems a bit cumbersome.
*sigh*Which part, Ludwig?
I cannot get past a certain part of SMS and it is filling me with ANGST.
FOP = Fairly OddParents
JN = Jimmy Neutron
DP = Danny Phantom
I have to agree, all of the good shows are only reruns now. I also hated the FOP - JN crossovers. But hey, I guess some people watched them.
Jimmy Neutron's getting canceled? Oh well... it was a good show until Carl got infatuated with Jimmy's mom. It used to be one of, if not the, last good show, but now the running gags have "WTD?!" written all over them. I guess it's fine by me, I never turn on my TV to actually watch it anymore anyway.
Got screens? If so, those are really tiny tiny flies.
Oh plz just pick them off. You'll live. :P
But I'll have to touch them! *cringes at the very thought*
But I'll have to touch them! *cringes at the very thought*

Well, maybe you'll get a chance to go to the small, intimate summer affair, E3Expo.Electronics Entertainment Expo Expo?
Now I'm filled with ANGST because Markio's lawn grows so well. My lawn has so many dead spots on it. :(That's not Markio's lawn. It's Deezer's.
That's not Markio's lawn. It's Deezer's.
Man, someday TMK should just have a TMK-E3 where... it's a bunch of us cool TMK people... in, like, Deezer's front yard or something. That would just about be the TMK Grandest Event ever. I'd attend, in 5 years or so...
I slammed my finger in the door on the same hand with the blister on it and and cut myself with a knife (accidently) on the SAME hand.
I've got these large mosquitos flying around my house. Actually, I'm not sure if they are part of the mosquito family, but they bite. And it's freaky since they are at least an inch long, leg to leg, and the body seems to be about half an inch itself...and the bites really hurt. Kinda creepy when they float over the floor in a large circle.
(post)
I really need to get a game on my DS, I have to do something on it. Is thier any game I should get first? NSMB mabye?NSMB is great, but it doesn't show off the DS's features well. So, if you are new to the DS you might want to try Brain Age, Wario Ware, or Feel the Magic/Rub Rabbits. Still, NSMB and Mario Kart are games everyone should own.
Why would she overreact when you and the other lifeguard explained the situation very nicely?
...People are crazy.
I don't mean to rub the ANGST the wrong way but, certainly somebody must have said, "Nice moves" or something, didn't they?
Why would she overreact when you and the other lifeguard explained the situation very nicely?
That lady had issues. You saved her sons life and she's horribly ungrateful.
You shoulda' let the boy die, Steve. shure you might loose your job, but it would be worth it.
Because we "criticized her son for being mentally handicapped." Apparantly, telling someone that their child almost died is "criticism" and intolerant to handcapped children.
What next? Will somebody be reprimanded for defusing a bomb since "The guy who made the bomb spent a lot of time making it"? Or because it's considered "property damage"?That would be like someone getting yelled at for destroying a doomsday weapon because the villain "put 30 years of his life" into it. Rediculous if you ask me.
"You're BAD PEOPLE."My experience with parents is that they often over react and misplace anger when it's over their kid(s).
I have lost faith in American telivision today.
It's a about Kappa Mikey, a new T.V series coming to Nick on August 20th. The show stars a super hero named Mikey, the "number one face of Japan Anime". The support characters include a rat (who sort of looks like everyone's favorite over weight electric rat) and a boss who also appears in super deformed mode. I've had it with this. It's like American telivision is trying to rip Anime clear off the face of the Earth. I didn't want to believe it when that crappy Totally Spies show came out. I didn't want to believe it when the Avatar came to Nick (hey, it's actually a good show.) But I just can't take it anymore. Yeah, so Drawn Together had Ling-Ling. But that's way different when compared to this. Somehow I think these people hardly know or understand Anime at all, and are just trying to appeal to American anime fans to make a quick buck. I think it's disgraceful, and it reflects on how unoriginal we are.
*sigh*. So, how was your day?
It really is pathetic. Oh, and by the way, Nick is releasing yet another anime parody. Now we have something called "Shuriken School." I really just want to go over to Nick HQ and slap everyone with a wet towel rag.
Again though, my anger with that situation has long since subsided (though it may not look that way, seeing as you guys have done the opposite of what I requested at the end of that post).
*scratches his head*Me too.
I'm confused. Either you are a bad writer or you made yourself seem like an ungrateful brat that deserves to be treated badly on purpose. A third option must be eluding me.
He didn't need to curse me out afterward. *sigh*
I guess you could forget it, the anger has long since subsided in the both of us. Say I was the jerk in this situation, fine, I don't care, I still believe I did nothing wrong.
I started school today. Today, we got a short-term project in English class. Not only that, but we also got homework from Spanish and History. Oh, and we get gym uniforms and gym lockers tommarrow. I guess 7th grade is like this.
I have angst against the Shadow Queen in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. I CAN'T BEAT HER!
Well, we're the same age, PaperMario. I wonder what 8th grade is going to be like.
I, actually, despised middle school with every fabric of my well-known being!
It sucked!
My peers were confused and angry, I was confused and angry, the teachers were confused and angry.
When I arrived at high school, I was happy to find that everyone matured! Yay!
Well, we're the same age, PaperMario. I wonder what 8th grade is going to be like.

Man, everything in my house is falling apart. Okay, maybe not everything, just the refridgerator. And the microwave. Maybe just the kitchen. I'm not sure exactly whats wrong, but from what I've gathered, the area in the freezer where the cold air comes out has a build-up of ice, I think it has something to do with the ice maker...which has never worked right. This causes the whole thing to either freeze everything. Everywhere. I don't like my milk lumpy and my eggs hard. OR, to keep things in the freezer frozen, but not a brick, we turn it down, and the fridge is an ocean. I think we may actually need to get a new one.
The microwave works alright, except half the buttons don't work...like 'Start'.
Oh, and we can't make toast without making half the house lose power. Yeah, our house is an electricians nightmare. Or fantasy, if they're working on the electric.

ANGST!/me to GiftedGirl: :S
My civics teacher just gave us this big assignment to do where we write a short story from the point of view of an immigrant. Though I'm taking the easy way out(having an immigrant from Great Britain), it couldn't get any harder. I'm no good at completely making up personalities, I'm only good at basing personalitiies off other characters or people. And I SUCK at taking on the personalities of other people. That's probably why I don't do role plays.
The Language of Literature?
ANGST!

Cheatation!
I was just playing Tetris DS one-on-one WiFi. I got paired with a player rated almost 7800, over 500 higher than my rating. Of course I lost, but after the game I noticed something strange...all of my opponent's blocks were the same color. They were all the color of the i piece. I played him again, and just watched his screen... he got nothing but i pieces! His preview squares showed a wide range of pieces, but the pieces that actually fell were i pieces, every time! So now I have ANGST because I want to do that myself but I don't know how! No, actually I have ANGST because the existence of this apparent cheat/bug invalidates one of my favorite games.
UPDATE: Here (http://youtube.com/watch?v=FwhXeR6rpTs) is a video showing Tetris DS cheatification in action. Apparently this can be done using an action replay device. BOO!

Dear Selfish:

I had a feeling it would come down to that. Sonic as a whole stinks now.
Is being a Backseat Mod a bad thing?Typically, yes.
And a well-justified opinion at that
My status on this board seems to constantly shift. :(
Wow!* I think I'm responsible for The Chef's new CT.
*Sarcasm implied.
Scientolagists are evil. See Favorite YTMNDs for details.
Does that mean I'm responsible for yours, Luigison??No.
.. actually, maybe not, now that I think about it. Luigison and Daddy-san are pretty similar.Yep. It was supposed to be Luigisan.
EDIT: God, if you weren't 8, I'd so flame you...Really....why?
I have ANGST because my Uncut Sonic X DVDs have yet to arrive.
Lemme guess, a family member is a scientolagist.
I don't know why everyone here has to act like they're superior to each other because they're older or they spell better. He's just 8, lay off.
And PaperLuigi, you would get flamed at the S2Beta forums just for saying that. LOL?
How much did the Banjo-Tooie cost? And what store was it?
Why? I don't think I'll go there anyway.
PaperMario, I'm sorry I snapped at you. It's just coolkid is put down for being younger, and the same thing happened to me when I went to the VGDC forums at age 13, while everyone else there was 25 or so.
Sorta reminds me of the time my dad's older brothers gave my dad a cigarette when he was 6. He nearly chocked to death.
Peach, did the cashier guy tell you it was used? If he said it was new, you could have some more reasons to sue the store.
Banjo-Tooie cost $25. And it was used. I feel like shaking that guy...
Scientologists aren't evil, they're just following a different path. Yeah, so it's strange. But they could say the same thing about me being a Christian.They are not devil worshipers. See the YTMND for details. And it's true! It's even on Wikipedia(Not that they're evil but the truth). And here is the YTMND. http://theunfunnytruth.ytmnd.com
Basically, there's a bunch of conspiracies that claim that people who oppose Scientologists have horrible things happen to them, and than the "Church of Scientology" is just a pyramid scheme.Well, if it's on WIki it's a 99.9 that it's true.
Or, in the words of the easily swayed, they're "evil".
...You are STUMPED PM.
Quack. (Quote shortened cuz seriously, why extend the page like that?)
Stand up and point the kid out to the entire class, humiliate him in front of everybody. Believe me, it works..... As for my friend, I think I'm going to ignore him for a long time until he gets the idea that he needs to shape up. It isn't the fact of the girl anymore, I could care less about that, it's a whole bunch of things mixed together, lets just say he's a jerk, but he deserves to be called something a lot stronger than that to represent the way he has been acting lately. But unfortunatly, I can't say it in this forum.
Currently, we cannot tell the local detectives the new info., as they're off on the weekends.
I dreamt that my friend died. It was really really sad, but then I woke up.I know what you mean, but it seems to me it be easy to read your post and think that you are filled with ANGST because your friend didn't die.
I hate stupid people.
I can really complain here??? Cool. Well, I have a complaint. 1) I am not popular and pretty. 2) I am very shy. 3) My crush doesn't know I exist. That good?

I beleive that since this topic has only gone only 6 days with out an post, this doesn't count as a reveival.It's not like reviving a topic is bad. Bumping one is bad.
Krrrrrrrrrr... my dad said Gamestop sold out of Wii preorders in 45 minutes. So now I have to go and wait until it opens on the 19th to go in and grab one. He said we can't sleep there in the parking lot...I know how you feel. I was gone when they started preordering the Wii, and my mom didn't get the message on the answering machine about it until the next day. However, she felt really bad about it and promised me one, somehow, someway on the realease (I'm paying, of course).

Why are Like Likes so scary? If you see one, just slash repeatedly until it dies. And if you lose your shield, you can always get a new one.
You're almost as bad as that girl that's afraid of pickles.
We don't want the game. We have it. We played it. We loved it. You would too if you played it. Missing out on an enitre game just because of one little fear is rediculous.
*Mr.Melee yells at the top of his lungs
Every freaking Toys R Us in this city is out of Wiiservations! I called recently and th guy said, "Nope, long gone. Came out Sunday and had a line up of 50 people." I asked if he knew if any other TRUs had Wii reservations and he said he guaranteed they didn't. #-_-' My Wii hopes are about shattered.
SO THAT'S WHAT THOSE DARN PEOPLE WERE LINED UP IN FRONT OF TOYS R US WAS FOR! EEEERRGH! Now I'm mad. I feel so dimwitted.
Hey, I think it's okay if you don't want TP. I don't know if I even want TP. Hey, what are heck are Like Likes, anyways? I am totally lost.
It's winter,Winter comes December 21.
It's winter, yet in these last two days, it's been extreamly hot! I can't stand the heat. It's been 95 degrees farenheit for the last two days. But what am I complaining about? It being hot and winter? California is not very seasonal.
Romance, useless? Everyone needs someone of the opposite sex, wether its friend or really good friend. Me, I can only count the number of girls I talk to in a single day on one hand, and I can't even put up all my fingers on that hand. It seems everywhere I turn someone has someone else. It makes me furious to the point I have to fight myself to stop me from punching something or someone in school. And it feels as if I'm collapsing under the weight of my own genius. Do you know how crappy it feels to love people and receive no love back by the end of the day? I did laugh a little, but it was more of a laugh at than laugh with, you knw what I mean?
Well, I'm 18 going on 19, and I've never had a girlfriend. I've met plenty of girls, but I've never gotten together with one. Anyway, who else besides Luigison and SolidShroom is on Youtube? I've made some funny videos with clips from Sonic cartoons.
Hmm, the entendre didn't even cross my mind until you specifically wrote about it.
Really, how long are you going to think Wii = weenus? Forever?
Why am I so useless at everything?

Why did the chicken cross the street?
Oh, wait, wrong thread... *slaps self*
I have a trip to take. It's really cool. The only bad thing is that I go at 10:00 in the morning
ON THE 19TH OF NOVEMBER!!!
WAHHHHH!
I guess the Wii will have to wait unless I ditch the trip. Wii? Trip? Wii? Trip?
My friends are counting on me to go on the trip. I think I'd better go. Friends? Wii? Friends? Wii?
My friends are more important but still...
I remember reading up on JonBenet. Her story is very sad. I cried when I read it. Her father was a hostile psychopathic loser who killed his daughter.

Anyone that hurts or kills a child in their right mind deserves to be drug out in the street, shot in the groin area, and beaten up by me.And people that are not in their right mind should be locked up in a mental institution or jail until they are or for the rest of their lives. I don't understand the defense that they are crazy or don't know right from wrong so let's let them walk the streets to commit more crimes. I understand temporary insanity, but most people that kill or molest children are screwed up in the head for life.
My step-dad is anti-video games.
Also, I don't have an SD Card to transfer my data to, which effectively has me screwed over.

Did you break up with her, or did she break up with you? That's good though, since you didn't even like her, now your back on the single scene just like everyone else.
I've been reading all the reports about the WiiConnect24 error codes that people are getting that force them to send it for repairs.I haven't heard any of those reports. No one here seems to have had those errors, either. Perhaps you should just connect anyway.
Just a fair warning; when you do get a girlfriend, boyfriend, whatever, there will be no time for Mario, fun, or anything else. Almost all of your free time will be spent towards making them happy. I'm just speaking from experience, it 'aint that fun.That doesn't have to be true at all. In fact, that is to say, on the contrary, you could find a girl/boyfriend who enjoys video games as much as you do. And if you're going to have a partner that eats all your time, FORGET THAT, man. I'm sure they'd hate it just as much if you ate all of theirs. I sit at a table with three other girls in biology, and they talk about boyfriends and stuff a lot, they once said "Man, boys are stupid." I cough, and they say "Oh, only if they're bad. As in, they take your friends away from you all the time, and stuff like that." I say, "I'd hate it just as much if I were in that position, so I wouldn't do something like that if I had a girlfriend." They say, "Okay, then. That's good." If love were as horrible as you have just said it was, the world is a pretty awful place. I mean, I don't have a girlfriend yet, just a date to Winter Formal that I have hopes for... But I think I know what I'm talking about.

Where the heck is PaperLuigi from?
spoiler text!!!!!!!! [/ANGST]It works better if you place the size tags outside the spoiler tags, like this.
Vid, you may have self-esteem, but you're extremely self-absorbed. You're selfish and all you care about (at least primarily) is yourself. The world does not revolve around you, nor will it ever. So don't expect it to, and don't act like you expect it to. ACCEPT IT.
It's good to have self-esteem, but it needs to be based on reality. If you have a grandiose view of yourself, that's seriously not healthy, not to mention it drives people away.
The problem in general is that people's perceptions (of themselves, of others, of situations) are exaggerated, not reality-centered. Either they think something is worse than it is or is better than it is. One needs to see how things really are, without first distorting it. That's easier said than done, though, and something I'm trying to overcome, as well.
Anyway, stop being so whiny, selfish, and attention-seeking, Vid. It's REALLY old.
LOLOLOLETC. to LD and Luigison.
SSM: At your age, even if you're mature enough to handle a relationship, pretty much no one of your age is, so I would stop worrying about it until others become mature. Worrying about it is just going to cause you, well, ANGST, as it's pretty futile at this point in time. You're just going to be left disappointed. Wait until both you're ready AND others are ready.
(On another note, I think doing drugs is a bad idea, not to mention drug use seems to correlate with low self-esteem, even though you say you love yourself. Drugs aren't going to fill a void, either. ...But I'll stop.)
Prescription drugs can mess you up too.
I guess I personally don't have any business in this, but I'm thinking it would be cool if you decided to stop (lest I make a horrible joke involving the fact that this message board is called the Mushroom Kingdom...).Don't eat the mushrooms Mario wouldn't eat.
My wisdom tooth is coming in. IT HURTS LIKE...IT JUST HURTS! And the pain goes ON and OFF. All of you have probably been through this before. I can see where it's pushing through in my gums. It looks like it's coming in sideways. All I know is that it hurts and I'll have to endure it until it's big enough to be extracted...or do I?
Words cannot describe how hard I laughed at that pic, LD.
It seems like he just woke up, drooled up some blood, and didn't clean it off.
What a sick freak.
Ding ding ding! Perfect analysis. Yes, this was not surgery blood, but wound blood.
A couple of redneck (not the funny kind of redneck, the stupid kind) guys were behind the woman on her phone, and the one closest to the front of the line turned to his friend behind him and asked (please note: I am not kidding) "Common sense? Isn't that the name of a band?"
Father: "A LARGE spicy chicken sandwich. And a Coke, please."
I'd have to say that quite a bit of that is sometimes my father's fault. His memory of what his children and wife want aren't very good, and we usually have to relay our orders to him when he is talking to the magical speaker that takes our orders (though in the specific time I posted, my brother was driving, and he remembers our orders, it was all the BK staff's fault that time).Curious. My dad has the exact same problem.
I also forgot to mention the endless cat pictures that got annoying after the first few.
Come on, 4chan doesn't approve of lolicon. That's why not4chan exists (which gets flooded with real child pornography of which they do not approve). And the seemingly completely unrelated Renchan, which now requires registration.Now just how do you know all of this? You're not the type who visits those sites, are you?
[/lolicon expert]
Y'know what makes me angsty? I just beat the original SMB, and the ending is such a letdown. Way worse than Halo 2's.
Also, the Mario series has never been based on in-depth, big budget, Hollywood-style stories, anyhow; just to be enjoyable and fun for everyone.

My quest for the Wii has disturbed me almost to the point of insanity. There, I am insane now.
This Website! And PaperLuigi! He Talks too much!
This Christmas was fairly disappointing to me. Other than the Halo Graphic Novel, which is the awesomest thing ever, I mostly got junk. I got a tiny radio from my mom that doesn't have any reception, a copy of Resident Evil (the movie, which I have openly stated numerous times to hate with the fury of a thousand nuns) from my sister, nothing from my dad, and a $5 gift certificate to Best Buy from my older brother. This is in shocking contrast to last year's Christmas, where I recieved nothing but awesome stuff.
I'll have to wait until the Wii LAN adapter comes out, because my wireless connection isn't compatable with the Wii.You can use a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector like you would use with a DS.

[Triple Posting Day is not a real holiday. I'm feeling grumpy.?? -Suffix]
EDIT: *shrugs* Fine then, I'll stop....
Adding onto NE's ANGST!, I find it even funnier that some people haven't even actually WATCHED what they're complaining about.
I'm quite sure people should actually watch something before they can form a legitimate opinion on it. Instead, they just read opinions on it from other media such as reviews or in articles and newspapers, and form an opinion that way.
So yeah, either ignore it (which is the best option), or actually see whatever it is yourself. THEN, if you don't like it, ignore it.
Only eat oranges that you buy from the supermarket.WTD, what about the trees in Grandma's backyard? You cannot beat home-grown oranges. At all. Unless you have, like... home-grown nectarines. From the orchard across the street.

Today my English teacher went on again for a large majority of the class time to talk about how there's war and everything's bad and how dare we enjoy television because it doesn't teach us anything and we should read instead and how he worries about everything and his opinions-his opinions-his opinions. It makes me feel bad. I mean, the reason I'm there is to learn English, and instead he tells us a lot of negative things about the world. Either that, or he tells us his own personal stories that don't relate to the topic at hand, whether the topic be about English or about the off-topic topic he already started. What really bugged me today was I started making a point about how reading is like Raisin Bran and TV is like Apple Jacks, but he ust talked over me and went on for a while. Why is he allowed to go on about his own problems while we can't say anything about ourselves? If he really wanted to help the world, he could just better prepare us for college by teaching us what he's supposed to be teaching, and then we could go out and try to do something ourselves, instead of telling us about his own opinions and ideals all period long. It makes me want to go to the bathroom but actually sneak to the other English class at that period, so I can learn what I'm supposed to. There's nothing wrong with my teacher having opinions or problems, but it doesn't help us understand Paradise Lost or anything.
By the way, TV is like Apple Jacks because there's nothing really promising about it(it doesn't taste like apple) and it isn't really healthy in any way. Meanwhile, reading is like Raisin Bran in that it's healthier or more beneficial in some way, and while it's not as sweet, it still has a pleasant taste.
Meanwhile, reading is like Raisin Bran in that it's healthier or more beneficial in some way, and while it's not as sweet, it still has a pleasant taste.
Whew, and I thought the ANGST thread had gone to whole grain!
Raisin Bran is better than cheerios. They make the cereal, basically!I LOVE raisins in oatmeal. I can't eat plain oatmeal without them. But then again, this isn't the raisin topic.
I have angst because it is so cold in my room because my niece opened a window at 11:00 last night and didn't close. So I wake up at 6:00 cold.
I do that too--- but here, it's called "Knowledge Bowl."
My breakfast cereal left me today. I'm gonna cut myself.
And furthermore, Em-Os, bwahahaa.That's either a cereal for depressed people, or a cereal endorsed by Eclipsed Moon.
At least my math teacher brought in Sun Chips for us while we practiced (and my favorite flavor, too, which is what makes it worse, because we ran out).What a pessimist!
Anyone remember when I was complaining about my friend going out with this one girl who I thought was only going out with him to get to me? Well, I've realized now that I was only saying that out of jelousy because he had a girlfriend and I didn't. I now understand that that was completely wrong what I thought, and that I should be happy for him and her. I hope everyone understands, and forgives me for feeling that way in here...

There is some sort of Mario music that would be fitting with this picture, but I can't presently remember it.
If I ever complain about someone having a higher post count than me, please kill me.Why do you think I feel so horrible about my attitude and actions regarding it? It's immature, competitive, and waste of my time. I guess now that I've finally been "defeated" I can stop, which is actually a good thing.

Guys this is horrible. I just logged onto my Yahoo email account to find all the messages I had been saving for up to a decade in some cases had been mysteriously deleted. I lost tons of important memories and info.Hmm, this seems suspicious.
Not only that, but in my inbox was a new message from this girl I was sorta trying to get with. In the message she was enraged about several things that I supposedly wrote, but I never did. Now I may never find true love.
I guess I got hacked?
Also, I'm quite happy for ruining someone's day by stumbling onto his Yahoo account, responding to his possible girlfriend, and deleting all his email. I'm so twisted.

I was told today that I need to hurry to lunch so that what happened yesterday doesn't happen again. Problem is, lunch and every class I have after it is on the opposite side of the school as my locker, so I tend to grab everything for those three classes immediately after lunch, to save valuable time between classes. Fortunately, one of those classes is gym, so all I have to grab for it is my badminton racket (because the school ones are crap, of course), but I also have band and science, so I have to grab my music folder (because the school has a pretty good keyboard, and I have my own at home) and my science books. In addition to this, I carry my PDA and at least 2 books at any given time. I'm beginning to think that I should do what some of my friends do: break one of the rules and carry a backpack to classes. Considering how many rules I'm probably breaking right now...

Well, she hasn't hung you up by your feet and whipped you yet, but I'm suprised she hasn't , since you're always complaining about her.
I'm going to be Wii-less for about a month or more.When I sent in my GCN to be repaired back in early 2005 (couldn't read discs), I was only GCN-less for about two weeks, maybe less.
I have Angst because there are no good Wii games to play for the time being, now that I've beaten TL Princess. I just hate waiting for Brawl to come out, and when it does, I hope to see some good characters get the chance to fight, although I'm sure I won't like the line-up. A site has already said that Bowser Jr. will be in it (I don't know if this is true, but I hate the little ^&%$ anyway) and other perfectly good characters such as Game and Watch and the Ice Climbers will not be returning.
Why does everyone hate Bowser Jr. so much? Is it just because Nintendo decided to dump the Koopa Kids (who lacked personality in my opinion) and use someone different? If he's going to be in the next SSBB, what difference does it make? You do not HAVE to play as him.
Except video game characters don't starve, and probably wouldn't care if they didn't get in. Plus I think the "thousand other" characters you're thinking about probably don't have any serious potential.
The e-Reader has been dead for years now. I'm surprised you just now noticed.
Hey, look on the bright side! If Bowser Jr. is put in the game, you can beat him up all you want.
It's not like 2 extra years makes a difference in how lame he is. Bowser Jr. pretty much falls under your description: no major role, and is obscure.Pit's kind of obscure. I guess. Equally obscure, anyway.

I'm ANGSTY because my younger sister's stereo is blasting the Spice Girls, and I CAN HEAR IT IN HERE. IF I DON'T GO TO THE FIRST FLOOR AND/OR TURN OFF HER STEREO SOON, I WILL DESTROY MY HEARING JUST TO STOP THE PAINFUL "MUSIC".
Wow, the Spice Girls are still a presence in your house, 95?
NOOO!! Don't change it! It's hard enough remembering my name as it is! Now Poop Dude is Jake (though, thankfully, not Xx_DaRkNaRuToFaN_xX), donotcare53 (or whatever that number was) is WarpRattler, and my brain is shriveling up trying to comprehend it!!And Poop Dude was originally named Lonic the Elfinhog!
I have angst cause I can't get a name change.
EDIT: Uh, how do I change my name? I can't strike fear with a name like "Glorb".Just ask Deezer.
Who's SuperPhoenix? No offense, but that sounds lame.

My little sister's best friend has a crush on me, but I loathe her to no end. She makes it painfully obvious that she likes me, and I make it obvious that she annoys me. Yesterday, she just up to me out of the blue (knowing that I am a Pokemon fan) and gives me this horrible game (it's the one posted) that she bought/probably stole for me as a present.

I just stared at it and then looked at her and said, "Are you retarded or something?!?!"
She stares blankly and then starts crying and her mom got scared and said "you're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air!"
Discuss my chaotic little fangirl problem.
Mike 1: ...Yeah, well, at least I'm not gay.I think when you said this you were implying that he was calling you gay. He didn't seem to be calling you gay, though. This is what made him angry.
Me: You have absolutely no proof that I'm gay.
Me: At least I know how to be a gentleman!
if somebody did something bad to you, you do something bad to them.
Me: What if I said all hyperactive people that have a caffine addiction are going to hell?Oh no, what did I do?
Also, Max, he was referring to me.Well, that's pretty hard to tell when
*stuff happens*is all I know about what happened before this.
That's the logic I choose the follow, and it's the logic that all of my peers choose to follow.
Simply going and telling an adult makes you look like you're weak and you can't stand up for yourself.Well that's fine, in elementary and middle school, because you're still young. In High school you will have to learn how to stand up for yourself, but you must do so in a non-violent way. If people think that's stupid, well, don't hang out with those people, because they might not really be true friends.
And it's true.No, it's not. You'd still be the better person if you told somebody about someone who is troubling you rather than engaging in physical combat.
Just last year, I told my mom because of a bully problem (which, ironically, is Mike 2). Mike 2's dad talked to my mom, and Mike 2 promised it would never happen again. Guess what happened today.Well he most likely said that to please the adults who told him to make that promise and didn't really mean it. Nothing wrong with telling someone he's at it again.
And what if you're getting beat up in front of your girlfriend, and you just stand there and take it? When that happens, there's usually a 70% chance that you won't be seeing your girlfriend again (or maybe that's just my school).Actually I'd bet you a million dollars she'd be just as disappointed in you as much as if you were to start a fight with her, unless she's a girlfriend who only likes you for your looks, and not your personality.
The way I was raised, I was taught that if somebody did something bad to you, you do something bad to them.
Yeah, flame me with your insults on how not to beat up nerds and how not to gay bash, but everybody does it. I mean EVERYBODY. Even some of the girls do it too. If you havn't at least tripped him while he was running or stolen one of his books, you're considered to be one of his "boyfriends", and an introvert who deserves no friends.
EDIT: Before all of this, Me and both Mikes get into an argument about weather or not we should throw rubber chickens and rubber pigs (I'm not joking) at this introvert who's only friend is his boyfriend. Mike 1 is tired of throwing stuff at him, and dosn't want to beat him up. However, me and Mike 2 think we should.

"Hate" is a powerful word.Yes. Exactly. Look, I usually chicken out of posting anything firm 'cause I'm too soft, but not this time.

For some reason you thought he called you gay, which set off Mike 2. Now it's clear how it happened. Mike 1 was referring to the introvert, not you. I think your whole school is messed up and everyone there needs to stop being so homophobic and mean.
Mike 1: ...Yeah, well, at least I'm not gay.
Me: You have absolutely no proof that I'm gay.
I've done something before in the same vein (or would it be another spelling of that word?)No, vein is correct.
Exactly what type of person do you hate? A closeminded, gay-bashing, nerd-beater-upper, or do you mean me?X to the D.
1. That guy has no friends.
2. He's gay.
3. He likes to sing the opera.
4. He likes to dance Ballet.
5. The only time he's ever danced with a "girl" was when some 6th grader pity danced with him.
Why wouldn't I beat him up?
Because having no friends, supposedly being homosexual, singing opera, dancing ballet and being pity danced in 6th grade doesn't warrant being physically harmed by moral standards. Does him doing any of those things have any sort of effect on you as a person?
1. That guy has no friends.If everyone at your school truly is as you describe, I can see why.
2. He's gay.This is how it started with Nintendo Bros. Look how it ended.
3. He likes to sing the opera.Uh, so? Whatever roasts your marshmallow.
4. He likes to dance Ballet.See 3.
5. The only time he's ever danced with a "girl" was when some 6th grader pity danced with him.Well, if he's gay then that's fine. I never danced with a girl until the eighth grade myself, which didn't count, which makes the only official "I actually care" instance this year.
Why wouldn't I beat him up?It's people who beat others up for no legitimate reason (actually, beating anything up at all is bad) that have caused this country to suck. What are you gaining from it? Don't say "A good laugh" because that's a really crappy response--like you're really going to look into old dusty yearbooks and say, "Hey, there's that gay guy I used to senselessly hurt," and show your grandchildren. And if you do... yours is truly a nasty story.

Don't know why I posted this, I doubt CTOAN is gonna read it.
1. That guy has no friends.I usually try to contain my anger here, but AGH. I have never heard anything so close minded in my life.
2. He's gay.
3. He likes to sing the opera.
4. He likes to dance Ballet.
5. The only time he's ever danced with a "girl" was when some 6th grader pity danced with him.
Why wouldn't I beat him up?
If I stood up for him, it would make me look gay.
And make my chances of getting a girlfriend even lower.
That introvert dosn't count. All I did was throw footballs at him while he was wearing his 1970's style roller skates.
@Vid: If it makes me look gay, I'll lose my friends, make everybody think I"m friends with the introvert, and make girls think I'm gay.Well then I guess you'll have to learn to deal with that! It's called LIFE, child. It's not fair.
People here just don't know when to stop...
Oh, and being an introvert is a bad thing. Do you know the definition? Let me remind you: one that does not tend to associate with modern society. One that does not associate with anybody. One that thinks he does not need anybody.
Also, that's all that I did to avoid getting in trouble again. My friends have done worse things.
@Toad: At this school, girls want a man who is strong, handsome, and can protect the girl from any harm. If I'm a bully, it makes my chances higher.
Don't you get it, people? You can't change me. Flaming me won't work. Maybe it'll make you feel better for trying, but it won't change me.
I have no girlfriend? Who the dukar cares?OH, MY!
And make my chances of getting a girlfriend even lower.What a hypocrite. You've talked yourself into a corner and caused most of the Fungi Forums to jump on you. Your best course of action right now would be to just give this up before worse things happen.
... and stuff.Arrgh. Phrases like that bug me, but I'm probably not the best person to be judging.

*facepalm*
You people don't get it. No matter what you say, you can't change me. You change my personality. It's like taking a cell phone and trying to turn it into a CD player. It won't work. But you people think that if you try hard enough, you'll turn me into a "normal guy". You're just wasting your time.

Well, have a nice life of beating up people and ending up a lonely person then.
Really, I don't think there's another person on this board who has written such garbage.
Yeah, I think gays are the spawns of Satan and will be d***ed to an eternity in hell.
Maybe I should go to another forum where I'm not judged because of the way I think.
retarded little [edit] that worship Hitler or Mussolini or whoever.
I can see why Nintendo Bros. left.He was BANNED. Let's watch it happen again! :D
Correction: I don't want all gays to die, I just want them to change their sinful lifestyles.
I am not a hippie. I am not a communist. I believe in free speech. I also believe you are allowed to argue againts someone. You obviously believe that everyone should think the same way. That sir, is a fascist.
I don't like to get into political debates or anything, but I needed to fix that.
Ooh, he was banned. :D
Now I'll go over to the HOPEFUL thread and be happy about it.
So I just finished reading the last 5 pages of this thread. A lot of it was tl;dr, but from what I gathered CTOAN went from delusional kid to lolcow. Despite the laughs, it's still quite sad to see someone mislead through life like he was. I mean, what kind of envoirenment does he live in where it's ok for people to beat up gays for being gay? And apparantly being a bully gets you girls? Maybe in the animal kingdom, but only the hawt shallow girls want a large strong guy because it helps them feel better.
Oh well, he's gone now and became an hero, to be remembered with the likes of Nintendo Bros and Game Over. I just wish I was able to post the fail the internets picture while the battle was raging. It would've been way more hilarious.
I am NOT (note the word "not") beating him up due to his homosexuality. I'm beating him up partially due to peer pressure and also because his annoyance really really [ticks] me off. In fact, "beat up" isn't even the right term for what I do to him. It's my friends that do all of the beating. All I've ever done to him was mess with his locker lock and hid one of his folders in the bathroom (other than throw foam footballs at him while he was roller skating).
I can see why Nintendo Bros. left. You're all obviously spoiled little whiney hippies that think that everybody needs to be "kind" and "nice" all the time, or they're retarded little ******* that worship Hitler or Mussolini or whoever. You know what I have to say about that?
[edit]
Yeah, I think gays are the spawns of Satan and will be [cursed] to an eternity in hell. Who cares? IT'S MY MIND.
And your Nazi-like attempts at getting me to be "normal" have not worked. Also, I'm voluntarily leaving this forum. Permanantly. Maybe I should go to another forum where I'm not judged because of the way I think.
Also, I heard that if you live in this country, you're allowed to think the way you want. You communist[s ] obviously don't beleive in that.
And PaperLuigi, help me out here: Doesn't the bible say to be good to your fellow man? CTOAN is obviously more a sinner than the Gays are.
she said that it was in the EASTERN hemisphere, which was completely irrelevant to the question!Not to mention, WRONG.
Perhaps it shows that you don't need to know most of what you learn in school.
when a CEO of a CONSTRUCTION company can't tell you the area of a square of side 12... ya.

I don't know a single thing about wrestling
*mouthdrop*
What are you doing that for? I don't know a thing about wrestling, either. I'd bet a lot of the regulars here would say the same thing.
because that would require that I go near the smiley.(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fthemushroomkingdom.net%2Fboard%2FSmileys%2Fdefault%2Fgrin.gif&hash=64d7887221818cc81942f781be320c46)(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fthemushroomkingdom.net%2Fboard%2FSmileys%2Fdefault%2Fgrin.gif&hash=64d7887221818cc81942f781be320c46)
I am proudly ignorant about "professional wrestling".
I have angst because recently people are replying to TWMH topics just to criticize or reject the offer.
I don't get the use of Kelvin. It scales the same as Celsius, it's just 273 higher. At least with Fahrenheit it's actually different. Well, at least I don't have to remember some complicated formula to get it from Celsius...The point of Kelvin is that it makes absolute zero (the lowest possible temperature) actually be 0 degrees, which is neccessary to make the mathematics of the physics work a lot of times. Fahrenheit and Celsius are based off of much less important physical properties (human body temp, freezing/boiling water at Earth atmosphere) but ones that are more apparent in everyday life.
Unless it was satirizing racism.
for a Mel Brooks movie.
omg guys like i read on wikipedia (which is always right btw ok) the new english voice cast for ppgz and it like sucks ok here it is:
Paris Hilton as Momoko/Blossom (omg what kind of name is blossom thats so stupid its like they completely amercinized the show)
Dakota Fanning as Miyako/Bubbles (omg what shes not a bubble what idiot translated this)?
Rosie O'Donell as Kaoru/Buttercup(omg no just no)
Mr. Kennedy as Mojo-sama/Mojo-jojo(finally a good va but jojo is stupid sama strikes fear and mojo is a srs bsns villain)
Jack Nicholsen as Professor Utonium(finally they get the name right)
Keifer Sutherland as Ken 'Kennedy' Utonium(hawt)
Veronica Taylor as the Mator(lol tranny)
Angelina Jolie as Ms. Bellum
The Spirit Squad as Kare/Him(wut i mean why him? that so stupid omg cn sucks)
Tara Strong as everyone else (omg wrong casting lol)
also, i think they changed the name of the city to townsville or something (lame) and the japanese jokes have been replaced with family guy cutaways omg cn totally ruined it im boycotting them and sticking to subs ^_^.
Furthermore, I have ANGST because my humungously orchestrated attempt to fool everyone failed miserably. Miserably, I say! Stoopid HTML.That was stupid.
Coconut, I don't remember the PSAT using email for anything. Does anyone else? I think they send everything important by snail mail.My brother gets snail mail by the truckload and has hundreds of emails from colleges due to the PSAT.
Coconut, I don't remember the PSAT using email for anything. Does anyone else? I think they send everything important by snail mail.Times, they are a changin'. The only important thing I get in snail mail now is my tax refund and I hate that. Anyway, I strongly support "Fair Tax" legislation.
I know it was April Fools Day and everything, but man, what [as] did last Sunday was cold. Although, I find it hilarious in retrospect. I guess I'll just have to wait until the 13th.
Yeah, it was cool down here in Texas. At about 50, it wasn't cold, but it sure was better than what we normally get at this time, which is around 80 or so.Is that 50 and 80 cricket chirps per minute?
That was one of the better April Fool's jokes this year, though it means I probably won't get to see it until it comes out on DVD...
Well, it's snowing outside. It's like, the beginning of April, and it's still snowing.
Aw, nuts. Well, it's snowing outside. It's like, the beginning of April, and it's still snowing.
Here, too. XPWe even got a bit of snow. Too bad there isn't anyone in Alabama to tell us if it snowed there.
And I'm still angry that you are such homophobe-phobics.
Once again, I ask you to give me a breakGive that kid you threw stuff at a break. Give every person you gay bashed a break.
You're all homophobe-phobics.No, we just don't like immature people.
Someone important please say this utter crap will be split from the ANGST thread like the grammar gabber was split from Talkback.
Ask a mod to check my IP and see for yourself.
Maybe he feels he was betrayed by his former friends
This recent influx of jerks presents a sort of dilemma: Do we turn the FF into a sort of police state, banning jerks at the first sign of jerkitude, or risk letting assorted jerks run free on the forums, doing as they please?
No, I meant Global Warming does not exist since it doesn't, because there is really no conclusive evidence to support the crackpot theory.
As far as I can tell, the only important person making a big deal out of it is Al Gore.
Global warming definitely exists and there is hardcore evidence to support it. The only somewhat debatable thing is how much humans are contributing and how much is a natural cycle. But humans are definitely contributing.

Global warming definitely exists and there is hardcore evidence to support it. The only somewhat debatable thing is how much humans are contributing and how much is a natural cycle. But humans are definitely contributing.I'm with Lizard Dude on this one, but there are a lot of things to consider. Cities are warming faster than rural areas. This increase in surface temperature in the cities is probably not from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since the air tends to be a fluid and not stay over most cities like a green house roof. The unequal heating of the city may be due to the surface being paved/concreted over and the fact that there are a lot of waste heat producing machines in the city. If you look at the surface temperatures versus carbon dioxide in the atmosphere you might find that the increase in surface temperature actually precedes the build up of carbon dioxide. Heh, we need to build roads to drive our cars on and parking lots to park them in before when can have the cars there to produce more carbon dioxide. Atmospheric temperature is a better gauge to measure global warming by. It is increasing too, but by a smaller rate. Also, air pollution is bad, but not all air pollution leads to global warming like carbon dioxide does. Some air pollutants actually hinder the warming of the air by blocking some of the light/IR radiation. Cars, industry, and slash and burning the rain forests aren't the only culprits in global warming either. Cow farts may be one of the biggest pollutants. Eating steak and drinking cow's milk may be just as bad for the environment as driving a car. I don't know. This is just a rambling rant of what I thought of off the top of my head.
The veins in my feet make the top of them looks strange.Well, that's why we wears socks and shoes.
I have seen every episode. And sorry for the double post, I just flat out forgot.
I just know that they're going to try to find some way to connect this to video games. I just know.
Of course they will. People will try to connect ANYTHING negative to video games, and they've been ever since games with violence have existed.Don't forget, before that it was movies and books.
How do 8-year-olds get their own domain nameslolololol this is run by a whole church.
Murder was one of the first sins ever committed. The fact that people want to pin murder on a video game is so meaningless/pointless that the very words they spew forth remind me of the 2nd greatest sin: stupidity.
The kid played too much GTA, and has just learned that life has no reset button.
His game is ended.
So far the only explanation he had for the shooting was a note he left in his dorm that said "You made me do this". Exactly who "You" is, why they're responsible for the boy finally snapping, or what motive he had behind it is still under investigation.Sorry, there was quite a bit more left behind than just that. The guy was clearly disturbed since at least high school. I don't think it's necessary to go into the details because there is no justification for what he did.
Ok, so MB can probably top thisHey what about me?
Perhaps he was tired from coming home and/or was just in a bad mood.

The class following the butt incident, we get a new seating chart. The Annoyance is seated BEHIND ME(T_T)Well at least he wasn't seated in front of you AMIRITE!!?!!
Hey, at least you haven't had a car plow through a brick wall surrounding the corner side of your house. Believe me, your problem isn't worse.
I'm pretty sure that soon, hold-in-your-hand phones while driving are going to be illegal, but the Bluetooth ear things will be fine.Actually, talking on the phone while driving is illegal in many states already. Also, studies have shown that it's the split attention that causes problems, not simply the aspect of holding the phone to your head.
Yeah, I probably meant to add "In California."Effective Jan 1, 2008, talking on a cell phone while driving is illegal in California too.
-More air pollution (But that's okay, the ozone layer can take it)Automobiles aren't generally going to be generating CFCs, which is what depletes the ozone layer.
California has plenty of stupid laws. I don't know if it's true or not, but it said somewhere that It is illegal to pile horse manure more than six feet high on a street corner in San Francisco. But who would do that anyways? What would possess a person to do that?That's probably just left over from when they still used horses rather than automobiles and probably made a lot of sense in context.
No passengers in your car until age 18? What? That just puts more cars in the streets, which meansOne advantage of that is that the driver is less likely to be distracted by other drivers.
-More potential accidents, which is what those government people were trying to prevent. USETH THY HEADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-More gas wasted (Which is fine because we totally have more than enough gasoline and fossil fuels left to last eternities)
-More air pollution (But that's okay, the ozone layer can take it)
-Slower traffic
-More stressed-out drive-thru workers?
I'm sure I've gone on about this before... oh well.
ah, hair is superficial. anyway, try thinking it's because your brain is making room.
You know what really grinds my gears?
What is with people editing their posts to fix typos or whatnot after its pointed out? It totally ruins my jokes (http://themushroomkingdom.net/board/index.php?topic=10108.msg467168#msg467168)!
Grammar jokes haven't been funny since everyone decided to hop on board and feel the need to single out every small typo they see and make some snide remark. They try to look witty and cute doing it, but it only makes them look like total sheep.I almost never find it funny unless the typo makes the sentence actually look funny.

........whenever Chup decides to stop everything because someone spelled something incorrectly or didn't use correct punctuation or grammar, and goes off on how he either doesn't understand the sentence due to a fault in the grammar structure or spelling of the word (but he does 'cause he's pointing it out), or belittles them as if they HAD to know it to save their own lives. They only made a simple mistake. If I can understand what I'm reading and not get distracted by a mistake or two in a sentence I can shrug it off and go on in my life. I don't get how this is so difficult for other people.
Though the concert I was in went great (see HOPEFUL), right after it, I accidently walked into a music stand cart, and it tore through my black dress shirt.

Is it magic? If so, I'm goin' too!*oh no, They're on us.*
When do we see freaking Luigi in a new game?
You misspelled "mistakes" as "errors".
If they make a Luigi's Mansion sequel, it HAS to be set in some city, like Resident Evil 2 (since both the first LM and RE were set in a mansion), and have zombies that sing and dance. If not, I'm firing Nintendo.
And yes, the Boost Guardian is hard, but the annoying thing is that you have to save long before you ever reach it, so you have to trek over to get the Cobalt Translator Module and then trek over to the Guardian.
Why is it broken? Have you played MPH too much, or have you scrolled the screen too often in NSMB?

With one exception, all of the mods+ on this site are 20 years old or older. Of the non-mod+ members, I'd estimate the average age to be around 16 or so. 16 year olds will act a lot differently than adults on post board forums. 14 year olds, even more so (I seriously thought I was "mature" at 14, I read back to my posts then and cringe) ... I'm not saying you aren't mature at 14, I'm just saying... when you turn 19 or 20, read your posts from back when you were 14.I agree. I think a lot of my old posts are silly, and there are probably several that I would delete if I had the power.

Speaking of AP tests, I think my AP Calculus class had 68% of the curriculum required for the AP exam. Needless to say, I was lacking a bit of information.
My SAT scores were good enogh to get me into one of my dream colleges. The problem? It was a practice SAT!Colleges often look at the practice SAT/ACT results, too.

Mine changed from brown to half green/hazel. My hair changed from red to dark brown to both. I've asked people, but I don't think anybody knows exactly why it happens, though I guess it has something to do with gene activation. Why is this in ANGST?My original one is like my identity, but I guess this isn't too much of a big deal. Lately I seem to have been breaking out of a cacoon, I'm not the pudgy ugly kid people once knew. I've lost a tremendous amount of weight since school started and my features seem to be filling out quite nicely. On the contrary, I seem to have become reclusive, I barely talk to many people. And all the people I talk to are guys, except for 2 girls and they both have boyfriends :(
BirdPerson, if you happen to read this in time, do you have an image of a spare Wii game box to share with me?I'm afraid that's not going to happen. Bird Person is having his ISP changed, and he can't get online for several days.
I have ANGST because everyone is always talking about Pokemon all the time now, and I have no idea what they're talking about. It's all the same game to me.They kinda all are. That's why they're called XXX Version instead of Pokémon 2, Pokémon 3, ...
I can't catch a dang Beldum in Pokémon Pearl! Seriously. I get them down to 1HP (or very close to it), put them to sleep and Hurl Dusk Balls at them since it is nighttime. But it isn't working! I swear I can hear Nintendo and Game Freak laughing at me every time one gets out of a ball, though perhaps it is mearly the Pokémon's cry. But for goodness sake, I had an easier time with the legendary Pokémon such as Giratina which only took me three tries to get. Plus the fact that the only move it has is Take Down which has recoil sure doesn't help. What the crap?!
You could alleviate that by actually getting yourself a copy of Diamond/Pearl.
Whuh? You mean, haggis?DOH
They're even worse in the two Mystery Dungeon games.I don't think so. They moved much more quickly in those games, which I think is what hampers them in the main games.
Read a few pages back. I had the same trouble too. It helps if you use a Pokemon that has either Yawn, Hypnosis or any type of attack that puts him to sleep. Though even with that handicap, he still manages to escape the balls. Best thing to do is stock up on Ultra Balls and just hope for the best.
I don't think so. They moved much more quickly in those games, which I think is what hampers them in the main games.
Plus, y'know, the whole "you know what items are immediately after you pick them up" thing that just destroys the fun of randomized dungeons.It does?
Ness opened the present. Inside the present, there is a hamburger! Ness takes it.
Some time later...
Ness ate the Hamburger! 500 HP of mortal damage to Ness! Ness got hurt and collapsed...
Ness! Looks like you're allergic to mustard. So how about giving it another shot?
I'd never win that "no swearing" bet, assuming people could monitor me when I'm alone. When no one's looking, I cuss like ten sailors.
And here I thought it was usually the girl who gets clingy in the relationship. But Chef just blew my world away.
Maybe girls aren't interested in guys who babble on about Zombies, Dinosaurs, and Ninjas Glorb.
No way. Chicks love zombies, dinosaurs and ninjas. Plus, you left out mummies, vampires and aliens.
And here I thought it was usually the girl who gets clingy in the relationship. But Chef just blew my world away.
Yeah, I was about to say that.
I'm a very, very affectionate person, plus I was worried that maybe something might've happened to her.
Speaking of these teen pop sensations, I really dislike how Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton are getting all this publicity for being absolute morons. I mean, half the evening news was deticated to them! OUr society puts far too much emphasis on negativity.
You know what really grinds my gears? Posting in the hopeful thread saying that it's the longest thread I've even seen, and then seeing this monstrosity!

I hate that I spent SO much money on AC:WW! I never play it! It's horribly boring. The game has been stored up for months! I HATE THAT WRETCHED GAME! I HATE IT! And it was my cousins idea...although I'm not going to lay the blame on her because I'm the one who bought it. I could have bough Super Princess Peach! Goodness...I really shouldn't ever buy another Animal Crossing product. I haven't played on the GC version in more than half a year.This is how I feel about Nintendogs. AC:WW was worth it because I had some fun times with friends on local multiplayer.
How can you hate the awesome cuddliness of Chao's? I personally think that Chao raising (Debuted in Sonic Adventure) Is in fact, much better than the game!
The fact that people sell their consoles and games give me ANGST.
I don't care if a console has backward compatiibility, I would not sell preceding consoles for any reason. Like my games, I consider my consoles my babies.

I hate my GBA, I have to go around holding it pressing buttons on it, and I have to wake up in the middle of the night to change it's batteries!Wait, I think everybody missed this very strange post.
It's super effective! You win!The King: You make me DIE! You must die! :)
Give me one more page of cat talk.
My Super Nintendo Entertainment System games like Yoshi's Island, Link to the Past, and Donkey Kong Country are starting to work less and less. Then again, I keep blowing into the cartridges to get them to work because they're so old.STUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. Don't tell anyone but I even lick the cartridges to get them to work lol
ARRRRG! I hate all those stupid cartoons where something alive gets horribly tortured and hurt.(Tom and Jerry)I grew up on that show!!/me whaps Nintendoobsessed's face with a frying pan
ARRRRG! I hate all those stupid cartoons where something alive gets horribly tortured and hurt.(Tom and Jerry)
I've probably said this before, but we (we being 14-17-year-olds) had it gooooooood as kids. Sure, we didn't have toy lasers or any of the wacky things on which Fisher Price uses technology nowadays, but we had better kid's shows.
Every generation says that. It's all about nostalgia. I look back fondly to the shows I watched as a child, and don't care much for modern children's television. Not necessarily because the shows are worse, but because I no longer am the target demographic. I'm sure my parents thought the shows I watched were as awful as I think shows are now.
Chaos are basically a poor man's Neopets, which was pretty much a poor man's Digimon, which in turn was a poor man's Pokemon. That makes it three generations poor.
I have ANGST!
The windshield on my car was attacked by a beer can thrown by some random person Monday night as I made my way to Walmart to pick up my fiancee from work. It completely shattered (but didn't fall out) and scared me half to death. My parents helped me get it fixed, but now I owe them more money because they also helped me by a computer recently (the old one was.. old).
I can't seem to bring myself to go across town and visit my parents so that I canabuseborrow the internet connection and do my homework, I have trouble sleeping, and I don't seem to eat as much as I used to..
There's also that Girlfriend song by Avril Lavine (sp?) that I can't seem to get out of my head, and my fiancee likes to sing it, even though it makes absolutely no sense for her to sing it.
1. Cats > Dogs

SolidShroom was right though, PL. Cats PWN Dogs.
I think it's better to roll with it and laugh. It's no big deal anyway.That's what I've told you before.
Holy hand grenades > bunnies
Now, let's please dump all the not-worth-time junk.
....It's so hard to get a topic back on track when you have nothing about which to complain... The derailing of this topic gives me angst.
I also don't believe its posts should count towards any statistics, and many in #tmk believe the same.
What about the posts that do count? Like my story?
It wouldn't matter if I had all 100s, if I fail the Regents, I fail the class.
I feel Coconut's pain. I failed Math B and Spanish, and to top it off I failed their respective regents too. I'm not sure if I have to take the class over along with the regents again or what-all.
I have ANGST because I am so sick of these cat pictures.
Do you really hate cats that much? You don't even like kittens? :(
Hey, it's okay that you guys like cats, I'm not mad at anyone for that. Some people just have different tastes. :)
I probably shouldn't have said introvert, 'cause I know some people have cats and are very social.
I have ANGST because I am so sick of these cat pictures.This is funny. Wasn't it you who told me that I shouldn't complain about FG&S because I don't have to view it, to be told that its content is getting to GC and all which is what really annoys? Well... you don't have to go to that topic, and no cat pictures are posted anywhere else (except for mine here which predates the topic). Just pointing that out. I am more of a dog person myself (please don't make a comment about my dumb name), but cats make for better Internet pictures.
In my opinion, dogs are fun, caring animals that are happy just to see you everyday. They're always ready to get up and play, which may explain why I like them so much.
I'd rather get a pet hamster or snake.
I like cats because they're reserved, and mostly quiet. Sydney usually likes attention, though, and meows at you whenever you say something to her.My dog has always been pretty gentle. Her size is like between medium and large. Very adequate size for a farm dog.
Oh, and they are playful. At least, mine are.
A friend of mine has a big dog (I'm not sure about what type it is, it might be a Siberian Husky) who enjoys playing rough. I've seen him come to school with scratches on his arms, stating that he got them from fighting with his dog, Juno. He invited me to his birthday party and I saw him with a band-aid on his face. His dog had apparently made a gash on the left side of his face the night before his 14th birthday (yes, he's 4 years younger than me). He had to get stitches, and the band-aid was used to hide them from people. In the days we had school, the band-aid would've usually fallen off by the afternoon, exposing his stitches to everyone. They were removed after about 2 weeks, but a scar is there, and it still hurts him if you touch it.
'Nother reason why I prefer cats over dogs: Dogs're rough.
I really, really wish my Burger King was less ghetto, because I'm either working with a bunch of black people that are rude (save for a handful), or a bunch of white people that act like the black people (again, save for a handful).If the white people act like the black people, why did you make the distinction in the first place?
the squarest, nerdiest, pastiest white people aroundStop talking about me!
He was a fantastic athelete, just like Eddie.An athlete? Isn't wrestling all fake and scripted? That sounds much more like acting to me.
I think what Toad means is acting like ghetto and gangsta people. Which are not all black. But some people look even worse than others when they go around with sideways ball caps with DC logos on them and chains full of bling hanging down in front of their gigantic t-shirts while holding their crotches and/or just having really baggy pants that don't stay up.
I wished him a happy graduation in the Hopeful thread when he reminded us. I graduated this year, too.
I don't exactly see why graduating High School is such a big deal either, but whatever. Graduating when you "have to continue" seems about the same as graduating when you had to continue all that time before it, i.e. according to you, you didn't have any choice in the matter at any point.Technically you don't have to go to college. I assume a lot of people still don't.
No you didn't. :P
I don't care what anyone says, moving from elementary school to middle school or from middle school to high school ISN'T graduating.
Harsh? Probably, but it is not a big feat when you finish a school only to continue in another school because you HAVE to continue in another school. Sure, it's great that you keep going, but, did you get a diploma for your efforts? Not yet? Then don't call it a graduation.
(This pretty much acted as an ANGST post perfectly. :P)
I've seen people graduate from high school and get more congratulations than after they graduate from college.Well, they didn't have to attend college. No one does. Like I said, after high school education is completely optional. I'd think graduating required learning is a bigger accomplishment then graduating something you chose to do.
That's not a diploma you have, puddin'. It's a fancy slip of paper.Clearly you did not check the definition of 'diploma'.

This is the ANGST thread, not the IRONY thread.
Ugh, how long until someone makes an IRONY thread?(14:31:20) ***Luigison waits for someone to make "The IRONY thread: Iron here!"
Anybody ever been arrested before?
Have you read the books? The books are better.
And now for a huge shocker: I dislike The Lord of the Rings series, books AND movies.Another shocker: I never found any interest in the Star Wars movies (and I never have read/seen the LotR series, nor do I intend to). My mom rented the 1977 film and made me watch it, and I felt extremely bored during so. I finally fell asleep in the final scene what with the flying and shooting and the Death Star thing exploding. I was also forced to go see "The Phantom Menace" when I was younger, and I had to stand in line for half an hour for a movie I did not want to see.
I hate whenever I feel like I'm supposed to like a popular movie.
I've felt similarly about Transformers. At another forum I go to, I made a thread about Ratatouille, letting the people there know it was a good movie and that they'd like it if they went to see it. What were the majority of the replies? "I'd rather see Transformers instead". "Transformers is awesome, I'll probably see that instead of Ratatouille and rent Ratatouille when it comes out on DVD", "It probably has NOTHING against Transformers. I'm seeing that."
I seriously feel like, just to bust their chops a little, posting there telling them I hate Transformers and that the movie is probably terrible. Truthfully, I have neutral opinions of Transformers in general, I recall watching the cartoon (was it anime? I can't remember) as a very young child but not being too crazy about it.
I've never seen Ratatouille, but I know it sucks anyway. Transformers has Transformers in it, and Ratatouille has rats in it! Rats are small! Transformers are big! End of story!
I've never seen Ratatouille, but I know it sucks anyway.How'd you know it sucks if you haven't watched it? It's really good imo.
OK, who gave me this custom title? I have NO affiliation with Reading Rainbow, if that's what you were wondering. ¬_¬I wouldn't get angry over that. I have one that I was given because of my name, but it's not mean-spirited. Usually it never is, it depends, but I'm pretty sure it's just a bit of a joke.
My long hair.
Yes, the picture's tint has been slightly altered to make my face less red.Don't tell Chupperson! I hear he killed a man for doing that.
Man that first Melee pic is hilarious.
[all that stuff]Gee, I give one little complaint about "Reading Rainbow", and this guy gives a speech. (No offense)

Yesterday, I woke up at six o' clock to a peculiar pill, Halcium, or something like that. One hour later, I climbed into our van and then something bizarre happened: I developed amnesia. Six hours later, I was waken up on our front couch to extreme pain, and was kept awake only long enough to take another pain-relieving pill or two with what I believed to be apple juice. This process continued until this very morning, when I was awake enough to use the bathroom.
and the only way to get out of it is through death.Or by pulling a Driver's ID out of your butt.
Anyway, I certainly wouldn't use a cell phone in college. I haven't used my cell phone in almost a year. I have no idea where it is.
I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to kill his dad. :P
Actually, that was a reference to how ProTips are always stupidly obvious, saying things like "use the sniper rifle to shoot enemies from far away" and "take cover to avoid being shot" and "falling into bottomless pits can kill you". Speaking of which, I hate GamePro. That's my angst.
Who's this new weenie in SSBB? Solid Snake would totally kick his butt all the way back to preschool, which he's probably still in. That is a fact.
You guys are hi-larious for thinking you won't need to use a cell phone in college.At least we're hilarious.

Oh, curse you, Ike, you've probably killed any chance of Lyn ever being playable in the game.
Well, with Lyn and Olimar having nearly no chance of being playable, I'm seriously hoping for Diddy Kong to get the thumbs up.
Snake=gunHow can you say this when you haven't played Brawl?
Ike=sword
Snake wins.
How can you say this when you haven't played Brawl?
They've already stated that Snake won't use firearms in SSBB.
Too bad they're not issues of Nintendo Power. Then maybe everyone would have more fun together.
I have a headache and I can't sleep. :[
So Ike's standard B move is a charged up flaming version of Marth's sword attack. The same one that once belonged to Roy...
Guess that means he's cut. Too bad.
Ack! I forgot to log out before I went to bed last night, so it looked like I was logged in all night.No you didn't. The list only shows you if you have ben active in the last 15 minutes.
Vid, there's nothing more wrong with liking a fictional character than liking a movie star who's never going to meet you either.Very true, pictures of polygon people, pictures of carbon-based people -- who cares? Both just pictures.
I went to our state fair today, but my niece was just unhappy. I wanted to try and win a Sonic plush but my dad and my niece were just not in a very good mood.. At least I got to ride the tilt-a-whirl. My butt got wet from the rain, but it was worth it!My fair was rife with Mario plushies, and there was indeed rain. I didn't ride anything, actually...
My fair was rife with Mario plushies, and there was indeed rain. I didn't ride anything, actually...Oh, lucky! :(
Who's genius idea was it to have Petey Piranha appear in Brawl?
It's bad enough that he was ever created, but this guy deserves to be forgotten and fall into video game obscurity.
It went by so quickly...hopefully the school year will go by quickerNope. I have been in school for five days and summer was shorter than this.
My fair was rife with Mario plushies, and there was indeed rain. I didn't ride anything, actually...
I have minor angst (hence why it's not in all caps) because Petey Pirahna has been seen in footage for SSBB. I absolutley hope that he is not playable, as there are other more worthy characters that could be in instead of him.
I need Paper Mario/Super Mario RPG!
I have not read behind Bird's bar. I highly suspect that is says something like, "Lizard Dude will start saying how hot it is in Montana (and cold) and call everyone temperature n00bs" because, yes, that's what I usually do in the chatroom.Eh heh heh heh heh. That's right. :P
Am I rite?
:)
GAH! I forgot my capture card at home! Now I can't play Metroid Prime 3!wut
This is where you can complain about anything that is bothering you.
Oh, my mistake.Heh heh, talk your way out of this one.
LD, I know you're looking for ways to burn me, but... did you notice "My mistake?"Heh heh, talk your way out of this one."My mistake" is what you say when you mistake someone for somebody else. What your post implied is that you mistook Shyguy92 for the very avatar of Emo itself, meaning: He was being extremely emo!
I have angst because Bird Person's attempts at being witty have lately sucked.LOL, take some more coffee.

That picture looks like he's breathing fire, not spitting coffee.He is breathing fire. It's implied that the coffee is very hot and thus he got burned.

I went to a fair yesterday; one of the games had Mario plushies. Dang carnie had the game rigged so unfairly that the ball would just bounce off the backboard like a pinball deal. >_<
Until then I'm absolutely not funny at all, of course.
I'm having ANGST because so far in high school, I've managed to be consistently late to my first class after lunch. I try to get my things ready on time and everything, but I'm always late. Not by much though, but still I'd prefer being on time. I remember reading a post last February about WarpRattler having a similar problem...How was it dealt with?
Age and humor are nigh completely unrelated. I've known plenty of hilarious 7-yr olds and plenty of dead boring old people (co-workers lol!).
The the professor is too much of the auditory learner. I'm more visual.
I was mainly referring to the users here. A friend of mine who isn't even 15 yet has managed to make me ROFL many times.
As for Jman, just because I don't find you funny doesn't mean I find you to be...I dunno, less of a person? You're still a good user.
I hope they use one Lord from each game in the series as an AT. At least the representation will be equal.
I have ANGST that people around here word their sentences like absolute fools because they believe the rubbish that their brain-dead English "teachers" fed down their throat about prepositions.I was going to post something angsty, but because of this, I just spent a couple minutes laughing. My emotions have quelled...at!
Oh dear, I will have much ANGST if this becomes another stupid patriotic thread for awhile.
So today, after school, some idiot decided to go "car surfing" with his buddies in the parking lot.One of Khold's friends died from that.
The rumors about what happened afterward vary somewhat, but here't the gist of it:
He (had a seizure/fell off/got hit by a car), hit the ground, busted his head open, was pronounced dead for five minutes, then was somehow revived and now resides in the hospital.
The fire truck and ambulances were there shortly afterward. News crews remained throughout the rest of the afternoon.
Moral of the story: Please don't be stupid, and if it's too late for that, don't let it rub off on someone else.
One of Khold's friends died from that.
They don't beat me anymore than any other character.
First of all, there's TWO of them and then every time they jump, it makes that little sound. They have that crazy grin that's just creepy and I don't like to play as them because it's weird to me. Their eyes are big and they're feet are, too, and then they're really stubby and I don't want to hit them because they look like two little lost kids! They seem like some kind of evil dolls.
I guess I'm being to serious.
So I am driving my vanUmm that's your Van, and you're the driver, as this points out. You're an adult, she isn't. I think that gives you the grounds to make her stop or get out of the car. Also, I thought she was 16, not 3.

My father wouldn't be very happy with me if I threw her out of a moving vehicle.I meant stop it and ask her politely to leave your vehicle or turn off the phone.
If it's your car, you can control the music, and if anyone else has anything to say about that, tell them to play what kind of music they like in their own car.
Wow...your sis is a racist.
My father wouldn't be very happy with me if I threw her out of a moving vehicle.That wouldn't work on her. She would have just laughed and continued.

tl;dr.
Do I need a psychiatrist, or some other form of doctor that helps with cases like this?
Also, Radio sucks. Why do people still listen to it?
I don't see the point of being racist to begin with. It's a really stupid reason to hate someone just because they're black.
(no offense to your sister, NintendoExpert89).
... rap and hip-hop (that is horrible and I completely do stand against it in musical and moral values)Just because the majority of mainstream rap and hip hop that you hear has immoral lyrics and themes doesn't mean that the genre and style is inherently immoral.
I get what Mr. Melee's saying--the rap and hip hop you'd hear on the radio is most likely going to be terrible trash about rape and stuff...
crap like abortionWhat one views as death to hundreds, another views as continued life for millions.
I get what Mr. Melee's saying--the rap and hip hop you'd hear on the radio is most likely going to be terrible trash about rape and stuff.Heh, it's not about that sort of thing anymore either. It's about mega, candy-related double entendres, midget explotation, lip balm, condensed soup, and the gluteal muscles of exploited young women.
At least modern "pop" stations change their playlist once in awhile.That doesn't make the music they play good. While most classic rock stations do overplay some songs, I find there to be a generally good variety in my local radio station. Also, how is classic rock unoriginal?

Also could you let up on the Ignorant Right-Wing Bumpkin image for a little bit? It's making me, as a fellow Ohioan, look bad.
I'm sorry it didn't stand out, but I thought that when I said that rap isn't black people's music meant that I don't think all rap is about sex and drugs.
I cannot believe how stupid people are. Today I saw a girl playing a PSP.While the car was in motion?

I'm grounded from video games, TV (which may end earlier, considering what's on SciFi on Friday night) and the computer until Saturday morning. I might still post now and then from school, but I won't be in #tmk at all until midnight on Saturday.What did you do?
What did you do?It's not what I did. It's what the rest of my siblings didn't do, and me getting punished because it's supposedly my fault that they didn't do it (despite the fact that I've already explained to my parents why it isn't my fault). It's not my fault that they don't listen to anyone that isn't our parents (and heck, they don't even listen to them most of the time). Apparently the "being grounded from TV" part only applies to the TV in my room, so if I cared about it, or didn't have stuff to read, I could watch stuff in the living room.
I've got ANGST since I'm being forced to go to some stupid Catholic Education Thingy tonight, from 6:00 to 9:30, which severely cuts into my Internet, game and phone time, not to mention a little something called homework. And I have to do this every Wednesday. What really ticks me off is that I don't really consider myself a Catholic (I'm more of an atheist), and I have to go to a three-and-a-half hour lecture on crap I don't believe in.
Here it is, (http://www.amazon.com/Adventures-Sonic-Hedgehog-Jaleel-White/dp/B000N2HDLO/ref=pd_bxgy_d_text_b/103-4012953-9232640?ie=UTF8&qid=1190247092&sr=8-1) if this is the one you're talking about. Unless you mean you can't find it in stores...
I understand where you're coming from. Being a Christian, I can't stand the idea of abortion, so what you're doing every wednesday is like me being forced to listen to Hillary Clinton's abortion lectures. All jokes aside, you shouldn't be forced to do something you don't believe in, but I've been a Christian for as long as I can remember, and God has helped me through a lot of stuff. I guess with you being an atheist, we have some different views, but I'm not going to call you into account on that.
While we're on the topic of "politics", there's something I'd like to point out:I am far below average.
http://www.commondreams.org/news2007/0920-07.htm
I'm sure all of you know this already, but just look at all the stuff we could be doing instead of trying to establish democracy in a place that doesn't want it.
Abortion is such a huge frigging difficult issue because of how confusing and hard to decide it is. I mean, there are more important matters, yet many people vote solely on the issue of abortion. It doesn't make much sense anyway, because if we had a pro-choice president, I'm sure all of the Christian and other pro-life interest groups would make sure that abortion doesn't grow.
As for my stance on abortion, I'm at the same place as Bird Person. I mean these babies aren't really babies if they're only a bunch of cells. Plus, they are technically part of a woman's body, entitling her to its fate. Of course, that's not such a great argument--if I sliced off my arm, I'm sure I would have violated the law somewhere. And in response to the need of abortions, they're usually needed by careless teenagers who are too irresponsible to practice safe sex or abstinence and stuff. Honestly, there's a point where people can just stop the need for most abortions without even talking about them. Of course, rape victims should have the right to abort babies early on, considering they had no choice in the matter.
Finally though, what ever happened to adoption?
Sure. I'm not anti-gay, either. Though, abortion's a tricky topic... save cancer patients, or make women have unwanted children? And, at what point does the fetus grow a soul?
That downside was the whole thing at which I was hinting. Random arguments, fun? /me shakes his head slowly
This is the Internet.
intelligent people who are called flamersNow I know you're being sarcastic.
Now I know you're being sarcastic.
I'm complaining that NSider closed down. Where's my daily dose of stupid?
Good to see spoilerers getting what they deserve. :PHARRY'S A WIZARD
Dude, I totally know the ending to Mario Galaxy and I will spoil the ending for everyone if I'm not given $1,000,000,000 by Wednesday.MARIO SAVES THE PRINCESS
NSider was pathetic (I'm sure you'd agree). I stopped posting there not long after December.
There has been some hilarious times there late at night on the Power On board though, like a Plumber doing account suicide, which, at the time, I couldn't believe. Then there's RawkHawk and ShadowMario(I forgot the numbers), who, through PM, kept me updated on his alternate account and how he got banned. Great times.
Dude, give the title to Mr. Kennedy! He was Mr. Money in the bank after all.
If someone was parked in my personal parking place I wouldn't want them booted there.
That price seems high to me, but I know prices vary by location. Was the spot marked or in an obvious place like a driveway?
C'mon, Sega is Nintendo's rival.Haha are you living under a rock? That was 15 years ago.
Sega allowed it as a return favor for letting them use Mario in the Olympic game. I'm certain of it.This makes no logical sense.
I want to see Petey Piranha become a secretly playable character.Action Replay.
At this point, they had better put Mega Man in.
Also, he's a 2-D character, and this is a 3-D game.Yeah, no 2-D characters allowed in Smash Bros., especially not Dr. Mario, Ness, Ice Climbers, Marth, Roy, or Mr. Game & Watch.
Anyway, I don't know how Ryu is a staple to the genre, considering 80% of fighting games don't contain him.
Brawl delayed 'till February...WHAAAAAAAAAT? Where did you hear this? That makes me want to cry.
I'm freakin' out. This is madness! No, this must be Nintendo! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
At least GHIII isn't delayed...yet.
I was expecting the delay. If you ask me, Galaxy will be delayed too, once they announce the release date.1: It does have a release date--November 12th
I honestly wish that they took a bit more time in Twilight Princess (which had what, a three year delay? Well I don't blame them, what with the switching from Gamecube to Wii, but I still think they could've took like, two months more).
Don't mistake me for a patient person though.
1: It does have a release date--November 12th
and
2: What's wrong with Twilight Princess?
maybe without the cut scenes (which, for me, discouraged replay value)Didn't you know you could skip them? I just happened to notice it in the manual. (I never skip them.)
As a neutral third party: The Internet is not here to be your friend.
I've always seen the internet as a neutral third party, myself. It treats you, for the most part, how you deserve to be treated.
Then why is it treating the elitists here (you all know who you are) much more nicely than the users who DON'T have short fuses?
Sarcasm is awful and unfunny. It must be stopped. It's only ever used with bad intentions anyway. The way Chupperson had used it on BriGuy that caused is the only way it is ever used. Thus concludes my explanation on why the generalization that sarcasm is a bad thing is completely understandable and accurate.
Even to new members who drive you crazy with internet talk and an infinite barrage of topics.
I've always seen the internet as a neutral third party, myself. It treats you, for the most part, how you deserve to be treated.Bingo. Spot on. I totally agree.
Shouldn't activists be speaking out for their beliefs? Not shutting themselves up by external means? I'll never understand things like that...
I'm not sure why people would do it for abortion...Maybe to symbolize the voices the fetii do not have?
What? Tricked into asking out a girl?
Sorry. I shall endeavor to do better!If I were to say names, yours wouldn't be one of them.
AMVs are clogging YouTube, and Veoh's just uncomfortable for me. I haven't tried DailyMotion or MegaUpload.
No, YouTube converts everything to FLV form. That's why it all looks like crap.
I'm afraid that after three Capcom games, Nintendo has unintentionally proved to me that they are incabable of making portable versions of their OWN DANG SERIES.
(seriously, can those carts hold more than a DS card? Or is it the two screens and touch control that eat up all the extra space)You're joking, right?
You're joking, right?I just want to know why all my GBA games seem way longer than my DS games.
Why does Vid tell us to get a life so much?Heaven forbid I become emo. =P
Is he becoming the next... Trainman!?
Yeah. I think it's crap that PiT is shorter than SS and only has two save files. I can't even play through it because the characters are all at level 100 in the first file and the other file is my boyfriend's low level run.Totally. That's another thing I don't get: Not only are PiT and LoZPH way punier than SS and LoZMC, but they've only got two save files. I mean, I never use the third one--and I always thought three was an odd (no pun intended) number--but it feels unsettling when they're gone. Heck, I'd take GBA-sized cards if it means I'll actually enjoy myself.
Nintendo doesn't make all the games for its consoles.Yeah, but they sure as heck are responsible for what makes it on there.
Was the GBA really so much better? It lived off of easified SNES remakes and a few decent originals. Heck, we didn't even get the SNES games that would have sold best remade!Yes, they did remake old games with excessive 1ups, but at least the games that were original were incredibly awesome. And just out of curiousity, what in the world do you suggest they should've remade besides every 2D console Mario, the DKC trilogy and Link to the Past? SMRPG? Not with only A and B!
There might be another SNES RPG that got ported in Japan and never released here...Honestly, at this point, I think they should just put all three of the games in that series on a single DS card and release it in the US, especially since they're putting a character from one of the Japan-only ones in Brawl as a playable character.
1I wouldn't go looking this up.I looked it up and just found a bunch of lolcats...
It's a shame Super Mario Galaxy technically isn't developed by the true, blue, NoJ Kyoto Nintendo.Uh... then who are you saying did develop it?
But it is. Now we just want to know who ShadowBrain thought was developing it.Nintendo EAD Tokyo.
Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development (or EAD; formerly Research & Development Team 4) is the largest division inside Nintendo. Famed developer Shigeru Miyamoto serves as the head of the EAD studios and is credited as producer for each game released from EAD, with varying degrees of involvement. EAD is best-known for their work on games in the Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Pikmin, and Donkey Kong franchises. In 2004 Nintendo underwent a corporate restructuring, in which Nintendo Research and Development 1 and Nintendo Research & Development 2 were merged under the EAD banner.
Lucas was actually supposed to replace Ness in SSBM. Will he be replaced now?
I would cry. I really would. He looks like a Luigified Ness to me.
I really really hope that Ness hasn't been left out of Brawl. I'm also kinda sick of people saying that just because Lucas is in the game and has basically the same moves as Ness, and because Ness hasn't been mentioned yet, means he's not going to be in the game. If Ness is indeed gone, though, I guess I must hold true to my promise.He isn't out. I'm assured he'll just be unlockable. It isn't denial either--as much as I want to believe Ness is returning, I have reasons for thinking so.
Maybe he's thinking of the studio that developed Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat. It falls under the same banner but EAD Tokyo is the newest and has only worked on Jungle Beat.Exactamundo.
For a split second after I heard about Lucas, just a split second, I thought that this Lucas was the Lucas from The Wizard. I can see it now: All his moves revolve around twisting his Power Glove to mimic what's happening on a prerecorded video. And his victory phrase? "I love the Power Glove...it's so bad."
LD, at least you aren't posting like megamush.
Wow, either Mush did some serious searching or he hasn't posted that much.
About 4 or 5 months ago, on campus, there was a random "feminist" (I use this term very loosely, because most feminists push for REAL equality, not "unfair compensation advntages") march that got disguised as a protest against domestic abuse. A good cause, if it weren't instead a lame male-bashing fest. I was walking to the building on campus with the ITG machine in it, and this group (about 50-60 or so) happened to be marching past the same location in the opposite direction. Long story short, one of the people in that group, whom I've never met before in my life, tells me I'm a rapist by default. You know, that 2nd X chromosome gives you the ability to know more things about other people than they know about themselves, that's for sure, because I don't remember ever raping anyone. Even metaphorically. I just ignored it at the time, then went into the nearest building and punched out a trash can in frustration.
I've had similar experiences with a couple "choice" employees at my summer lifeguarding job. One specific example was, during a storm, one of the employees (who was about 18 at the time) was bragging about how she would always sneak into bars with her older sister's (the manager at the time) ID. And the bouncer didn't care, because "all men are stupid." Normally I'd lash out with a diatribe, but I wanted to see where this was going. She then proceeded to brag about how she "never bought a drink in her life" because she was moderately attractive and "men are stupid." I heard enough and went off about how I'm not stupid and how SHE'S the stupid one for breaking the law to leech a couple drinks and that I'd NEVER buy her a drink on merits of aesthetics alone because I am not attracted to the physical beauty of women, in general. She then proceeds to tell me that I'm "no different than anyone else" and that I'd buy her and everyone who leeched off me drinks in a second. One constant with women who think they're better than me by default is that they all think they know me better than I know myself. This basically turned into a unintelligible shoutfest after that.
For the record, I doubt I'm even hitting bars when I'm 21. For one, I'm probably not attractive enough to get past the bouncers. And even if I did, I certainly wouldn't be buying random people drinks, because they're the kinds of people I have no interest in getting to know better anyways.
In conclusion, there's really two kinds of people in this world I can never get along with: People who overgeneralize others, and people who give the people who overgeneralize others a foundation for overgeneralizing others. Reverse sexists are just one specific example of this. Condescending religious nuts are another I mentioned... I guess someone like Jack Thompson falls into yet another category... Jesse Jackson (Everyone's racist against blacks. Even other blacks.) is yet another... The list is so long it would be a waste of time to type further.
On another note, a LOT of today's commercials anger me. They're either incredibly stupid, incredibly insulting (see above: a current trend is the "men are stupid" form of advertising that seems to reach out to the ever-increasing population of jilted single mothers), or just flat out annoying. Then again, I notice this trend with a lot of new movies, TV shows, "music" "artists", etc. Pop culture is just going completely down the toilet nowadays.
Come to think of it, MaxVance's assessment is looking rather accurate.
What does the quote have to do with the question?
What is a rapist?
1. I hate when people on the street are talking in other languages and I don't understand
Actually he edited the question he was asking after I asked about it.
Bid Person's rant reminded me of something I have ANGST about.
Take a look around your school. Notice anyone who shouldn't be there? You may be wondering why a cop is standing over by the administration office. Well, he’s there for a reason, and it’s because the school is afraid that there’s a psychopath within the walls, ready to shoot up the students and staff at any given moment. Now some schools may not have a cop, and if you don’t, you better pray that no one decides to go crazy. The fact of the matter is, we wouldn’t have to have cops if schools weren’t afraid of students going nuts and blowing everyone away. Why do some students choose to shoot other students? Is it it because their home life is horrible? Not likely. It’s probably because there are other students, who most of us call bullies, who push them around and make them feel like garbage. This brings me to another point I have to make, which may or may not make you angry, depending on where you stand on this issue. Why do people bully? To make themselves feel good? Partially, but would they feel it necessary to even attempt this if the school system was strict in enforcing the rules? Maybe, if they were taught at a young age that bullying/fighting is wrong, with more than just the crappy “okay boys, don’t bully each other and I won’t through you into detention.” That kind of crap only encourages bullying, since the perpetrators know they’re getting out of doing something bad for a few lousy minutes in a nice, quite room where they’ll have to miss going out with their girlfriend for half an hour. That just doesn’t cut it. Your parents and grandparents will tell you that back in their day, if they did something wrong, they were met with a 4X6 paddle with holes cut in it for extra speed. If we had that kind of punishment today, kids would know that if you did something wrong, you’d be punished severly, and would not be encouraged to hurt someone else for your own gain for fear of getting paddled. But we don’t have that today, do we? Why? Perhaps it’s because a few whinny parents and individuals thought it was “unfair” to punish children in this manner. You know what’s really unfair? Sending my kid to a school that could be locked down at any given moment because there’s a student inside with a gun, who was bullied all his life. And this is all because the other students weren’t taught at a young age not to bully through harsh punishment. You may say that the old ways don’t work, that our parents had it all wrong and that we should go about doing it the way we are now. I want you to think for a second and tell me how many kids shot up schools back in the 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s and 70's. You can probably only count about 3. After the 1970’s, the number of student shootings in the US become increasing difficult to count on your two hands alone. You’d probably need someone else’s hands to help out. But do we even pay attention to that nowadays? No, we just continue to go about out lives and dissmiss bullying as child’s play, waiting for the day when some tortured student comes into the facility and starts picking off innocent lives. I say we should go back to the old ways, where we taught our kids at a young age to respect each other through harsh punishment rather than the crummy peaceful and lazy way of just sitting them down in detention. It’s not about being “fair” to our students, it’s about saving the good and innocent students from another Columbine. I felt like I had to share this with you guys because I’m tired of hyper-hippies telling me that kids are just “playing around” and that punishing them “is not fair” when it’s obvious that the system now is not working. And that my friends, is my ANGST.
Please don't blame violence on the lack of violence, or on the Bible being removed. It's the "Do as I say, not as I do" rule, which is stupid.
What Inquisition schools were your family members taught at? No one I've ever spoken to has had something like a 4x6 paddle used against them. I've only ever heard of a ruler across the hands.
Spanking/paddling, in my opinion, isn't very violent at all. Because I was never spanked in Elementary school, I used to pick on kids based on their appearance. It wasn't until Middle school, where I received the same treatment I gave out as a little kid, that I learned that picking on others was wrong. Sometimes it takes a taste of your own medicine to teach rather than just let the kids do what they want without punishment, and that's why I believe strict enforcement of rules is important.No, that just means you're ignorant.
No, that just means you're ignorant.See, this is why I hate debating here. Instead of providing evidence and facts, people resort to name calling. Really, do you know for a fact that I'm ignorant? Do you? You're basing this statement on one subject you disagree with me on.
Hold it, you're the one who used the quote, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind," for a sig. Violence as punishment is an eye for an eye.
Also, I never said "beat the child". I said paddling/spanking in school is the best way to handle a bully or an irresponsible child. You people totally blew it way out of proportion. The freaking' subject wasn't even about parents and beating their children for gosh sakes! It was about schools and their approach to handling bullies, which in turn leads to school shootings.
This is something I feel strong about, and I'm open to debate at all times. When people start calling me ignorant because they disagree, in addition to manipulating what I said, I feel as if it's more like mudslinging than actual debating.
No, that just means you're ignorant.
Enlighten me as to how using a weapon on a child, even for positive intentions, is not beating. Where's the line between punishment and abuse? And I realize the topic was about school discipline, but to mention children's behavior and not expect it move onto the parents is ignoring part of the situation. There would be less bullies if it were taken care of at home.
Oh, it isn't ignorant not to know that you aren't supposed to pick on kids because of how they look? (Or any reason really)
I should have used the past tense, I suppose.
I have the same opinion too.Agreed thoroughly.
Also I have angst. In my language arts class we are reading very old books like Frankenstein and The Island of Doctor Morreau. I don't like old books because I can never tell what's going on in them! I also hate the locker room in my PE class because of all the noise and cussing. I also hate cussing. In my opinion it is entirely unnecessary and doesn't make you cool at all. I also hate how the term gay dosn't even mean if a guy likes another guy it just means dumb of stupid.
Sorry for all the angst, but the middle school I go to is a good generator of angst.
I can guarantee that there is no logical correlation between spanking and shooting. Or bullying. Or any negative reinforcement and the behavior it tries to get rid of.
How is it not fear? Negative reinforcement is nothing but fear. Getting smacked hurts. Humans fear pain.
I like how PaperLuigi keeps telling us in every post that before the 1980s, there have only been about two school shootings.
We learned this in your first post, you don't need to tell us over and over again. You're basically restating your arguments in all of your posts. Chup's name calling is bad, yes, but repeating things to us as if we're slow-witted people with the attention span of a 5 year old with A.D.D. is even more annoying, in my opinion.
Cars have coolers now?
Why do you think I made that thread that Deezer closed earlier? =P
I'm annoyed that every Galaxy thread is about ShadowBrain's complaints with the game.If I just came and told everyone what they wanted to hear, I'd be a politician.
Driving while on cell phones will be illegal here next year. I have a wireless earpiece so I can still take calls when necessary.You don't need an earpiece for that. Just pull onto the shoulder or into a parking lot.
I haven't really thought much about this until now, but about a month ago I caught two guys doing drugs in a bathroom at my school. They told me not to tell anyone, so I said to myself "Okay, whatever." I have a bit of ANGST because I know I should have done something about it, but I didn't.
We're not talking n00bstorm, we're talking about a full-blown Asia-style n00bsoon. We must take shelter!
I'm ANGST because a bunch of 10 year olds who were obviously from N-Sider came to these forums and started acting.....their way.I kinda like the new people. This place was getting pretty boring before they showed up.
Someone should do something about this. I have no idea what though.

not true just look all over the mario chat!*Pumps fists with megamush*
No, no, there's quite a difference between n00b and newbie.
I also have ANGST because it seems as if tho Nintendo can't drive Sony and Microsoft out of the business like they did with Sega. Sony and Microsoft are such big corporations that they'll always have money to fund their video games just by selling their other products.Why would you want that to happen? Competition is good. If those companies hadn't helped put Nintendo where they were last generation, Nintendo likely wouldn't have come up with DS and Wii. Nintendo is a big corporation too and is even worth more than Sony. When Nintendo was leading in the 80s/90s, they did a lot of bad stuff to try to monopolize the industry.
IBM is like the kid who won "Appears Most In Yearbook" by hiding in the background of all the photos.
They killed Nintendo.com. I mean not like "delete" kill, but they changed it. Now it looks like Wii.com.Totally.
P.S. Your other way of putting it didn't help me understand much.
But the thing is, I would never be caught dead there.
It's a scary place indeed. It's like, every store in Hell is like Hot Topic--even the grocery stores.
What is wrong with you people? They're stores! It's not as though you are forced to sell your soul upon entering any of these places. It's just a place that has objects that some people may find desirable, and others, not so desirable. No more. No less.
Yes, but if I go there to buy an Invader Zim shirt, then I will have stepped foot inside a Hot Topic. That's against everything I stand for, and even some things I don't stand for.You can easily ignore what you stand for for a minute or two. When you walk out, you can go back to hating the store.
Has anyone managed to beat Metroid Prime 3 on Hyper Mode difficulty? I was trying to beat the last boss(es) today, and I was pretty much wiped out. It is extremely aggravating, fighting one boss for a half hour, only to be terminally corrupted.
I am very, very sick right now. I throat feels like it's on fire and my nose is running like crazy. Uh, I hate it.
an intense fear of anything going in or near my eyeThis portion of Glorb's post means he probably has a phobia of things going near his eyes. I'm sure tons of people share the same phobia, and I bet there are adults among them.
You don't have to laugh at him for something he can't help. If he does have a phobia, it's not his fault. If he doesn't, no big deal. But it's still rude of you. You can find stuff funny, but you can't laugh AT him for it.Honestly I think of "Heheheh" as a small chuckle and not laughter intended to hurt anybofy.
I was surprised to see a post like that coming from someone like you, Vid.See it's posts like these directed at me that makes me want to leave more and more. They also give me ANGST, which is fitting for this thread.
Write down the link (click on the anchor) and post it.
I can imagine how it feels.It really doesn't feel as strange as one might think. I always blink right after it happens. I guess it's like if it's really windy out, you can kinda feel it in your eyes. But for a split second. Like I said, it's the anticipation that kills.
Also, I dislike the fact that this thread has reached 250 pages.
Eh, I wasn't offended. It wasn't as bad as my mom, who tried her hardest to embarass me in front of everyone there while I was still shaking. It was almost surreal.
In the words of Rao: "Fighting for peace is like posting for a thread to die."
Also, 250 is a crappy number!Ah, but add up the numbers, and you get seven. Luckiness!
Speaking of complaining, I have ANGST because the current updates on the Brawl website usually stink. I mean "options"? What kind of update is that?I want Sakurai to just stop updating for a week so we can see how good the "bad" updates are.
Uh, pretty much every game comes out on every system now. (That's a stretch, but you know what I mean.)I know, but I mean, like... Boogie, Galaxy Wars, Rayman Raving Rabbids 1 and 2, Trauma Center, EA Playground, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games... it used to be just with licensed games, but this is getting out of hand! Let each system have its own games, for better or for worse!
what does n00b mean anyway?Boy, isn't that just the most ironic thing I've ever heard...

This is going off topic but has anyone else noticed that the n00b storm is practically over?It mostly makes sense. They come, most of them realize they aren't having a wonderful time with us after doing n00bly things like bumping topics and -ahem- potsign leik tihs!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111 So, they go. The curious thing is that several of them come at one time as opposed to a new one every so often... People linking the FF elsewhere, perhaps?
The crazy old lady who lives in the house next to ours has been spying on us since we moved here, but I've had it now. Basically, she stands there at her window, all day, watching us when we're outside and reporting any unusual behavior to...well, us. Yeah. She calls us up and explains to us that she saw X family member doing X unsavory thing, and is leaving the punishment up to us. Seriously, it's creepy, annoying, and creepy. Next time she calls us, I'll tell her to stop spying on us like a dirty old man and stop doing DIY detective work like the lady from "Murder, She Wrote", or I'll call the cops on her wrinkly butt.That's cool in a creepy, sad, and frustrating way...
I have ANGST because I just found out they're making ANOTHER American Pie movie.Oh, God, what is it this time... American Divorce?
Yeah I'm pretty sure that cash cow was milked completely after American Wedding.
Even worse, the spinoff American Pie Presents series has been released yearly. Band Camp in 2005, Naked Mile in 2006, and now Beta House in 2007. Reminds me of Mario Party.The next American Pie will feature microphone-controlled segments and an all-new night/day system.

That'd make an awesome game.
I have angst because I have to go back to work and my mom and dad still have an entire week off. I also have angst because Christmas day, the entire Burger King coporation closed for the day, but it still counts as one of my days off.(Burger King sucks)
I beat Lou on Hard difficulty using this tactic,Problem is, I'm trying to beat him on Expert.

Bummer dude, but you know what? The Cowboys are 13-3! Whooooooooooooooo!You know what else? The Patriots are 16-0! So there!
Why do they call it a Wisdom Tooth?You gain wisdom of new levels of pain.

I HATE Football so much.That makes two of us, except Our Pep Band dosen't play for football because our school team... sucks... really bad.
A good tip is to keep the mouthpiece in your pocket.That would've been good advice about three years ago. XP
You mean 16-0*Wait, whut? Whatever happened to "NFL Coach of the Year"?
*With a cheater head coach.
Don't you mean ... struck a nerve? Doesn't striking a chord with someone mean that they like it?I've been using it both ways...You sure it means only positive reactions?
I remember intentionally creating dissonance in band to annoy the people around me. It was quite funny.
Seems like something I'd see if I was somewhere in the deep South....Luckily I haven't heard of such incidents around here.
Not necessarily. If I see someone with eggs ready to launch, or if I notice someone trying to break in/breaking in to my house, I'll show them the shotgun and threaten them. Seems like violence is the only thing these idiots around here can understand. My ideal situation would be to knock them unconscious and give them a pamphlet about God.
Me neither, though I have heard of grandmothers with guns shooting robbers.What the crap?! I've heard of impatient grandmothers being hit by trains but this is different...
So, please show me where this magical right button is on the Macbook.Also,
Connect any multi-button mouse to the laptop and the right-click function will work?defeats the purpose.
Hasn't Luigi been canned anyway?WHY do people think this? Seriously now! That was never stated by Sakurai or anyone at Nintendo, was it? If it was, let me know. I'm getting really sick of people saying stuff like "There won't be any clone characters in brawl, so that means no Ness or Luigi or Ganondorf or Young Link", etc. I never even heard anything about this "no clone" thing. Sure, Sakurai said that "some of the characters from Melee would be left out", but that in no way means that there won't be clones, or that former clones' movesets won't be changed, does it?
Sure, Sakurai said that "some of the characters from Melee would be left out"When?
All my information came from IGN just so you know...Three letters for you: L O L
Why did they do that?
People don't like the idea of Toad being a playable character because there are far more deserving characters who do more than spend time being a useless castle guard.
...Link wouldn't have been able to jump...I beg to differ.
I beg to differ.

You know that whatever that thing is going to be (in Cloverfield), it's not going to live up to all the speculative hype we've got going on now. Still, they're doing a great promotion job.
Well, now that you edited out your sig, of course your contest is ok. Now you make me look like the fool!
Yes. Toad is quite a character that dosen't even show up in games that Daisy and Waluigi fill in.
And to answer why he dosen't appear as selectable in most Mario games, is because he is short.
Whoa, criminy! Anybody who can still communicate with words care to tell me where that Cloverfield monster pic came from?
It's a filthy lie that makes me spew bile whenever I see it.
I have ANGST because the constant hype of this stupid monster movie just won't stop.
I'd be quite amused to see that movie bomb at the box office, just like Snakes on a Plane and other action/thriller/monster films with stupid plotlines.
It's a filthy lie that makes me spew bile whenever I see it. It was fanart created by someone not related to the movie at all, as part of a contest to show what you think the monster should look like. It's a good pic, but not the real deal at all, and was not created to be such. And now people are saying it's fact, which fills me with a rage never before witnessed by mortal man.Well, whoever did make it is pretty awesome. Killer lice!
So how come 100% of PaperLuigi's images have text that says words? Which kind of negates the whole point of posting with pictures?
I have angst because I've been trying to troll some guy over AIM and he refuses to answer any of my invites.So, why are you wasting precious time trying to troll someone? Um, stop it.
...That starts the program when it isn't currently open?If not, a simple solution would be to leave it on overnight...
My neighbors are horribly nosy. It's only the neighbors in the houses to my left and right. If you park in front of their houses, expect them to peek out of their windows to see if you've stepped on the grass (the grass that comes on the other side of the pavement). They sit at their windows and listen. They're both housewives. They have something to say about everything.
It's mortifying.
Glorb, you're supposed to add your reply outside the quote tags.
DANGIT! They've changed Brawls Release date to MARCH NINTH!!Again, we talked about how delays are a GOOD thing that help make the game BETTER, and how people shouldn't complain about delays.
Number of delays: 2.

Miis should not be playable. Last I checked, Super Smash Bros. Brawl was a game to make Nintendo characters and Sonic beat each other up. The Mii is not a Nintendo character. The Mii is a caricature of you, some annoying celebrity or just every bizarre facial feature available you threw together to try to get people to think you're funny and original even though it's been done one thousand times. This caricature is used in games that don't have characters.Mario Party 8? Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games?
I'm sure someone's found an easy, warranty-voiding way to fix the Wii so it can read other regional media by now.I think this was just figured out, so it may still be a while before anything is available on the market.
Mario Party 8? Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games?Lame option of which I do not approve. It's basically the same as replacing Monopoly pieces with pieces of paper with yourself drawn on them.
And it should get to the USA just in time for the American release.What gets me wondering is why Japan gets incredible sequels first...
Lame option of which I do not approve. It's basically the same as replacing Monopoly pieces with pieces of paper with yourself drawn on them.I think that's the whole point of them... what do you want to use them for, anyway?
Uh, because they're developed in Japan, by Japanese people, and therefore don't have to go through the localization process?He might still be wondering why there's big gaps in release dates. The fact that the U.S. got both the Wii and DS before Japan did is probably making him think games are supposed to be released simultaneously in all countries or earliest in the U.S., because that's what happened with the hardware.
Honestly, I can't recall any good game that wasn't delayed at least once.That probably isn't true, however it is pretty much true that a delayed game usually turns out well (Half-Life 2, Twilight Princess). Of course, Most great games weren't very hyped and therefore no one even knew that they were delayed, even if they were.

Arr, that be a stretch as well, matey.So you say you were going nuts in anticipation for the release of Katamari Damacy, Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid, Guitar Hero, etc.?
So you say you were going nuts in anticipation for the release of Katamari Damacy, Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid, Guitar Hero, etc.?
Projected completion time is an exaggeration?No, I'm saying it would be a change of pace if it was.
I hate the history class I'm taking. Why do we have to do so much reading? >_<
Some think ROB will be playable.Such lunacy I have never heard. I mean, it was weird enough he was in MKDS, but... What would his third jump be? What's next if so? Anthropomorphic DK Bongos?
Some think Luigi will be dropped.
What would his third jump be?I'm not taking one side or the other in this R.O.B. thing, but this is precisely what I am sick of hearing. I'm pretty sure someone has said this before, but most of the characters in Smash would have no third jump or attacks or whatnot if it were not for Smash. Captain Falcon, Fox, and Sheik, just to name a few. Who cares if a character would have no moves that seem reasonable? I'm sure Nintendo could come up with something for anyone.
R.O.B. should be in everything. He's the Master Chief of the '80s.
Somebody PLEASE tell me that Guitar Hero DS is not going to happen!It is coming out. It's not a rumor.
Is it wrong for a person to send a present to someone of the same gender. Because an online friend sent me a Luigi plushie recently and my mother tried to say that she's a lesbian. Pfft. Parents. So naive sometimes.Heck, I'm getting my friend three DVDs for his birthday (mostly compensation for not making it to his birthday party, but I think I would've gotten them anyway). Of course, I have to fight off the occasional gay accusation every blue moon or so, but not necessarily because I'm charitable (in fact, I think last December was the first time I had voluntarily given anything to anybody for Christmas in years--unused cologne for said friend as a pseudo-gag gift).
That royally ticks me off. I want the two things to be seperateYeah, that's what kinda bugs me about Stephen King books (but they're still pretty good)...
It is coming out. It's not a rumor.I better see a USB-sized guitar with that thing, then, because that's like playing House of the Dead without a lightgun.
512MB, 1GB, and 2GB DS cards (with a firmware upgrade in each one to allow the DS to support them) and a possibility of a game using the 2GB card being a port of Final Fantasy VII. Is any aspect of this true?Yes, yes... when rocks fly (but, still, if only...)
I better see a USB-sized guitar with that thing, then, because that's like playing House of the Dead without a lightgun.What does "USB-sized" even mean? In any case, yes, the game is supposed to have it's own peripheral, though they haven't released the design of it yet.
What does "USB-sized" even mean? In any case, yes, the game is supposed to have it's own peripheral, though they haven't released the design of it yet.Okay, thumb-drive sized.
It is coming out. It's not a rumor.Sweet.
That royally ticks me off. I want the two things to be separate;Kind of like the cameos in Legend of Zelda that always seem to be featuring Mario things? Yeah. Its a little annoying.
WARNING! This ANGST comment is rather disgusting! Read at your own risk!
I don't believe it should be here in the first place, and it's really not what the spoiler tag is for.
(one of thebestworst webcomics out there.)
Gah, neighbors got rid of their unsecured wireless connection so now I can't download anymore Mugen stages and characters.So why were you leeching onto their connection, anyway?
And I seriously want a new Goku and Karin since the ones I have suck.
Also, I'm sure you'd do the same if you were in my position.Not really, I'd do the honest thing and get my own connection, OR ask for permission first if I knew the people with the open connection, because I'm not selfish.
You should try actually being nice TEM it's fun.2nd that
It's because of people like you we keep our wireless connection closed in our house.Uh, why the heck wouldn't you keep your wireless network encrypted in the first place? Keeping it open is just asking for people to leech your bandwidth. People you want to be able to connect can get the key from you themselves. ... I really don't get why you would leave it unencrypted ever.
You should try actually being nice TEM it's fun.
Wow, Mario Kart Wii's boxart... sucks. I guess they're going with the "make-it-bland-so-as-to-not-scare-off-the-casuals" approach. But, hey, I guess I can make my own if it bugs me so much.they will probaly change it like they did with Brawl's a SMG's
And ShadowBrain's Nintendo Hate strikes one more time. This box is more actiony than Super Circuit's.Why do I get the feeling that if someone else, like Lizard Dude or Vidgmchrtr, said what I said, no one would be complaining? Trust me, I'd hate this thing even if I'd preordered Wii Fit. Now no more discussion.

Eh, usually at least one of the sentences in your anti-Nintendo rants refers to a collective group of people you seem to imply is bigger than it really is.
But what BP said. You're not the only one who has made annoying rants about Nintendo, another guy always made these annoying threads about Sony and Nintendo and one being better than the other, constantly switching sides.
Continuing my gripes from a few days ago, it would seem like the one person that I need to talk to about this problem is totally shutting me out. Why? Because she has a friend at her place right now that has a Wii. Anyone remember what happened when my boyfriend got a Wii back in November? It's the same crap all over again!
You know what? I hate the Wii. I don't care if I haven't played it much. I don't like stuff that corrupts my friends.
Life really isn't all video games, megamush. XPyour kidding right?
In conclusion: Screw talent, if you want to go far in life, make connections and play to everyone else's unfounded predjudices. It'll take you a lot farther than wasting your time making yourself a better person.Yep, Pretty Much. Art is dead.
She's entitled to hate the Wii if she wants to. But, I have a feeling that you only hate the Wii because you can't pay for/find one, correct, N64 Chick?
I really don't understand people's fascination with the Wii. It's just a slightly faster Gamecube with a fancy carpal-tunnel inducing controller. What's the big deal?the big deal(s) are:
You forgot to mention the library of classic games,Yeah, because I really need to rebuy games I already have.
the library of awesome current games,Yay for shovelware mini-games!
and the promising future of games.We can only hope...
Yeah, because I really need to rebuy games I already have.You already own all 203 Virtual Games that have been released so far, as well as all 648 Gamecube games?
Yay for shovelware mini-games!Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, Excite Truck, etc. are all short crappy games intended as fillers?
We can only hope...As pessimistic as I am I'm sure Brawl won't really suck. Same with Mario Kart Wii and plenty other games yet to be released
- next-gen graphics <--Yeah, right.
- new features <--Such as?
- update feature <--what
- motion control <--totally overrated
I really don't understand people's fascination with the Wii. It's just a slightly faster Gamecube with a fancy carpal-tunnel inducing controller. What's the big deal?...Are you saying Nintendo should have just kept making GameCube games? And how brilliant that would have been. Or, are you saying that they should have done what Sony and Microsoft did: Nothing new, just made a system capable of more advanced graphics? And how brilliant that would have been.
Also, I can't repeat this enough to N64 Chick it seems, but the Wii didn't do any of it. It's all the people's fault. Blaming an inanimate object for things is stupid. This is not me being like "OMG don't haet on wii" either.
Oh no! If goodie joins up with ShadowBrian, Bird Person is DOOMED!Teehee... Saw that coming a mile away. And stop calling me Brian, already!
- The NES was basically a home arcade with a handful of adventure games, many of which didn't allow saving and thus weren't too long. Not like those games don't get ports and remakes every year anyway. I think the retro approach is getting old, personally. Galaxy mixed retro and new for a good balance of "Hey, that's from Mario World!!" and "Oh, how clever." Like Superstar Saga.
- Nintendo's new goal is to interest non-gamers and make the industry even more popular, which calls for a change of their outward image. If you don't like that, go play a PlayStation 3. No one's stopping you.
I find it kinda funny/sad that the only games mentioned by Bird Person that are supposedly for "Hard-core" gamers are franchises.Allow me to take this opportunity to mention that No More Heroes is my favorite Wii game.
So what are you trying to say? That it's merely a coincidence that David and Gwen (Screw this. I'm not calling them friends anymore.) suddenly became stupid when they came into contact with a Wii or something?
So what you're saying is that a popular game console puts people under a magic spell that forces them to be mean to you?The same thing happens when people take drugs or drink alcohol. Its not the objects fault, its the person who uses them abusively.
My friends mother died today.Sorry That I tottally ignored your post. all I can say is, "Were pullin' for ya. Were all in this together."
She had needed a new heart and they were doing tests. It's odd because I asked my mom today if she could take me to visit but she said they probably wouldn't let me in. I called my friend but she couldn't speak to me at the moment. My aunt calls me tonight and tells me that my friends mom has "went back to God".
I'll repeat this one more time. If Gwen simply got distracted by the Wii, I can understand that. And if she were to, say, take five minutes to check on me, that would be fine. But that is not the case. She is completely shutting me out. She had never done this to me before and it happened on the exact same day that the guy with the Wii came to her place.She obviously thinks the Wii is more important than you. I wouldn't blame her either. If I had a Wii... Wait, no I have never seen a Wii yet. I haven't even touched the controller! ,_,
Hopefully, the guy will be gone in a few days and Gwen will come back to her senses. If not, then screw her. I guess all those times we talked to each other on the phone didn't mean a thing to her.I'd say about 70 to 90 percent of all phone conversations, including all cell phone and telephones, have absolutely no moral meaning whatsoever. Incidentally the larger amount that spend time on the phone would be women, so there is a extremely likely chance that your conversations would fall in that agenda.
I hate the Wii because it has already claimed not one but two of my friends. Oh sure, my boyfriend takes me to his house every so often. But why? All he really does is play Super Paper Mario in a very obvious attempt to be a show-off.
Never played the CD-i Zeldas, but I've read they were terrible. I may check on the internetThey are. I just figured that if you had a CD-i you would've bought them out of morbid curiousity (no offense, but what are the good CD-i games? It wasn't the most popular of systems...)
Never played the CD-i Zeldas, but I've read they were terrible. I may check on the internet
Actually, I found a site that defends the games and sheds a little more light on them.Mah Boooiiii, this piece of cutscene will ruin your mind
http://hg101.classicgaming.gamespy.com/zeldacdi/zeldacdi.htm (http://hg101.classicgaming.gamespy.com/zeldacdi/zeldacdi.htm)
Quite interesting actually. If I had a CD-i & three button wired controller, I'd give it a shot.
You can get your results without submitting information.Yeah, that's what I found out after trying to enter my name as "Qaraan Qnaraa", my birthdate as sometime in 1918, my street address as 298339 slow lane, and my email as kjsidifk@gmail.com. I'm not stupid enough to put my real information into anything online.
That happened like...3 years ago and you're still upset about it?
Why would you bother to watch it?Shock sites
I haven't any idea what either of those are, but my curiosity is not so great that I intentionally upset my stomach seeing such things.
something he watched
there's that fear againDo not, I repeat, DO NOT go to this site. Ever. You will die upon sight of it. Or be mentally wounded, take your pick.
I saw saw roughly 50 seconds of a shock video called zomg before I ran from the room in utter horror. It is the nastiest, most life-ruining, most joy-killing experience you will ever have. Suffice to say that that has nothing on this. I won't bother to explain it or link to it, and I strongly encourage you not to watch it, but if you do, be prepared to do some memory-repressing afterwards.Baby
I went to YouTube thinking that I'd find the dis dat and all I found were a bunch of videos explaining how horrific it was.
Do not, I repeat, DO NOT go to this site. Ever. You will die upon sight of it. Or be mentally wounded, take your pick.
I hope that it's either taken away, or easier to do.Snaking is almost too easy in my opinion.
such a crappy video.Ha ha!
Both my grandfathers have died. My dad's father died before I was born and my mom's dad died when I was about 6.my grandpas on both my dad's and mom's side have died about 10 years befor I was born.
I tried to get online with Brawl about 5 times today, but same old story, my connection sucks, therefore I will never experience the joys of playing Brawl online.Your not missing much, theres no one to play!
I tried to get online with Brawl about 5 times today, but same old story, my connection sucks, therefore I will never experience the joys of playing Brawl online.Meh. I bet you wouldn't be missing much. Since there is no voice communications, it would be like playing against a more slightly clever computer opponent.
it's much more like playing against an actual human instead of a very predictable CPU opponent.
it would be like playing against a more slightly clever computer opponent.
I hope I don't have a problem with my Wii. I noticed that my Wii appeared to move the laser around a lot in SSBB, but didn't think that was a problem until I got stuck on one of the Subspace Emissary levels where everything went black except for Fox when the level loaded. I appeared to be in a dark rectangular room with no way out. If this is some sort of "dark" level I'll feel really stupid because I couldn't find anyway out of it at the time. I had full control of Fox and the camera, but there wasn't any background or level other than the small area I could move in.Yes, it's a confusing dark level. You have to Smash upwards to clear the room.
Meh. I bet you wouldn't be missing much. Since there is no voice communications, it would be like playing against a more slightly clever computer opponent.You could get a wireless headset thingy, and have Skype running on your PC while you're playing. Unless you're playing against a random person, that is.
..finally getting my copy of Brawl only to find out it's defective and I can't do a [darn] thing about it ..?
What a load of crap.
Hmm there was a problem in Japan with this, but it's actually the Wii that's defective.
I really wish my DS knew Daylight Savings Time. My computer knows itBecause going into your DS's settings and setting the clock back or forward an hour is just SO DIFFICULT, right?
Because going into your DS's settings and setting the clock back or forward an hour is just SO DIFFICULT, right?It's not that. It's just that I sometimes forget to set the clock
That's the Melee guys. Landmaster is so badly nerfed in Brawl there's no way any of them can still call him their main.Something can't be "nerfed" in its first appearance. Nerf means that it was made weaker than the old version. You're saying that the Landmaster is just weak.
It's all about the unflinching Aether and side B spamming now.
Landmaster is Fox's new nickname, as well as Falco and Wolf.A retarded nickname, made even more retarded since it simultaneously refers to three people.
Plus do you honestly believe the amount of Pit/Ike/Meta Knight users is going to decline in a couple of years?I honestly believe that no one can have any clue whatsoever what will happen to the long-term tournament scene three days after the game's release.
Wario sucks. I like using him but he's way too slow. Plus his fart move takes a while to charge up and most level 9 CPUs block it anyway, especially Wolf.
The first time I used Dedede, my friend kicked the crap out of him. I then switched to my main man, Kirby, and won.
Someone on the last page said about Wolf blocking a lot of moves. That is very very annoying. Specially at the fight when I had to unlock him. I couldn't get clean shots at him either, I fought him the 1st time with Sonic (It was very stupid of me since I had gotten him minutes earlier) And lost, So then I tried with ROB, and lost. then I tried Lucas a character I am more familiar with. I lost. Then I tried with my main man Luigi (I don't like how his karate chop has been slightly nerfed and his missile move just doesn't go as far. I haven't even seen his awesome explosion missile yet! Not one time!) and I finally won. See kids It's all about choosing the right character.
I just couldn't be bothered doing all those Vs. matches by myself.
Tell me about it, I emailed Nintendo's tech support the other day to ask why my Wii kept freezing every so often once I started the disc channel (the screen stays black, and the Wiimote gets unresponsive), and wanted to know a better solution besides going to the power button on my Wii and turning it back on.
Hey, that happened to me last week? I just unplugged all the cords and plugged them back in. I thought I had a serious problem there. Hey aren't Nintendo consoles now made in America? If so..... great.... None of my other systems did that (they don't respond at all if I try to reset or turn on) but my Wii doesn't even make it to a year and it's already acting up?Wiis have done this from the beginning, but upgrading the firmware seemed to help.
I've had a cold for about a week and my throat hurts. A lot. I blame this on my parents. Them and their stupid habit of leaving used tissues all over the house. I swear it presents a health hazard.I can't relate with the tissue issue, but I can with the cold.
At least your parents have good enough sense to use tissues. (Note that I am not implying anything about mine.)Yes you are.
If I recall correctly, a hundred years ago people were trying to raise a scare about a new ice age.
Everyone must read State of Fear by Michael Crichton. We'll have a big laugh about this in a few decades.
That's basically what he just said.
Yep.There's a lot of proof.
there's evidence to support everything depending how you skew it.
Global warming doesn't mean it's all sweltering, all the time. It means weather slowly becomes gradually warmer as time goes on. Where I live, it snowed exactly once last winter, and it was a small amount. Consequently, it felt exactly like fall the whole time.Yeah, last I looked out the window, it's snowing here (Washington). But global warming actually is supposed to cause rising temperatures, then a sharp drop, so the cold may or may not be justified as air currents or whatever fluctuate (that's why I kind of didn't like The Day After Tomorrow--it made a mockery of the global warming issue. Now, I know that the whole thing was like that because it makes a good action flick, but I just hope everyone knows that it doesn't really happen that fast).
Isn't there evidence to support global warming? If there is, I highly doubt there's an eminent and impending doom looming over us as we speak like Al Gore says. Nevertheless, going green couldn't really hurt us that bad, could it? It'd at least make the air cleaner.My standard points about global warming:
Your point #2 makes no sense. Al Gore made money from his movie.
You still are getting snow? I'd hate to live there.
Chup, watch The 11th Hour, and then tell me global warming is a myth.
Stop trying to comfort yourself.
I HATE it when people present their opinions as facts. It annoys the crap out of me.
Comfort myself? More like not get worked up over an unproven theory.It's proven.
there's evidence to support everything depending how you skew it.
About evidence:I'm not going to talk about this whole Global Warming thing.
There are way more hurricanes, the icecaps are melting, Australia...well Australia speaks for itself, there are way more floods, ect. ect. ect. ect. Evidence is not hard to find.
It looks like you're intentionally doing it to get under peoples' skin......?
Correlation does not imply causation.Global warming is caused by a lack of pirates, people! Geez, get it together, already!
my lips have been really chapped.A good brass instrument player always has lip balm on hand. I've got 2 on my desk I can reach for whenever my lips get chapped.
A good brass instrument player always has lip balm on hand.I refute that statement.
Ah yes,I love how the number goes from 35000, to 45000, to 20000.

I decided a while ago that, as a general rule, pessimists are right, but optimists are happy. I wish I could switch sides.What if your neither?
having his bowels removed...What?
Now he's having his bowels removed...
I lol'd.not funny.
I lol'd, not at her dad's suffering, but at the sentence itself.
That's life. =/
What if your neither?A true optimist or pessimist simply believes himself to be a realist. So you might still be one.
Fixed, sadly.No no, college is much better, and real life sometimes is a bit more bearable than high school.

Don't you pay for it in the pre-ordering process?
I'm on diet soda forever.Eventually you get used to the flavor. Coke Zero is particuarly good.
My school served us RAW CHICKEN today.
They didn't cook the chicken properly, but decided to give it to us anyways. Luckily, I noticed something was wrong with the chicken, so I didn't eat any. Three of my other friends weren't so lucky. One of my friends ate his entire portion, and threw up in his mouth a few hours later. My other friend ate his entire portion too, and two periods after lunch, he left school. My third friend ate part of his, but nothing's happened to him yet.
I'm just waiting for the day when my school actually is set on fire, no one's going to take it seriously.As am I. My school's fire alarm has gone off many times unannounced; as a result, all the teachers usually tell us to stay until someone announces that it's a false alarm. Next time this happens I'm going to leave, come back after a while, and then tell everyone how they would all have burned to death.
If they ever close campus, I don't know what I'll do. Surely it wouldn't be long before they realized, "There is no way every student can buy something to eat like this," or, "Maybe the increased number of fights has something to do with so many people on campus to participate, spectate, and prevent intervention!"Pfft, consider yourself lucky your school even lets you leave campus for lunch. Seniors used to be allowed to do it every day and could drive their cars off campus to go eat. Ever since we got a new principal about four years ago, though, she's slowly been tightening up on us, to the point where seniors can only do it on a specific day once a month and have to walk to wherever they want to eat. Rumor has it that she won't even let us do it at all next year (which is when I'll be a senior).

It doesn't affect me too much, as I've always brought my own lunch. I just don't like seeing this happen.
Consider yourself lucky your school even lets you leave campus for lunch.You bet I do.
I'd (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brominated_vegetable_oil#Health_effects) recommend (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspartame_controversy) giving (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-fructose_corn_syrup#Health_effects) up (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucralose#Safety) soda (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccharin#Saccharin_and_cancer).Quoted for truth!
hahaha public schools
oh man I am sooooo glad I'm done with 12th grade and earlier seriously
I went to a good public high school and I still hated it sooo much
Our high school didn't let you eat off-campus... although if you could leave for lunch I highly doubt it would've mattered because all the restaurants are about 5 minutes away and the lunch period was always disgustingly short (like, 25 minutes). It was also staggered and you had no say in when you ate, which was awesome the year I got the earliest lunch hour at 10:20 or something and didn get to go home until about 5:30 because I was a swimmer in high school. Awesome.
At least it was better than middle school. Lunch was FIFTEEN MINUTES and then the other 15 was spent going outside. You had no choice in the matter, you HAD to go outside unless the weather didn't allow it. And it wasn't like you really played or anything, most of the time was spent standing in lines. No really, they forced you out of the lunchroom about 5 minutes after the last person got their lunch (never bothered me, I brought my own) so you could stand in a line for 15 minutes in what was sometimes 35 degree weather. Probably their way of circumventing state excerising mandates. Even more awesome.
CONCLUSION: Life is waaaaay better after high school. Of course, I'll be starting my first "real" 9-5 type job in my field of study in about 2 and a half weeks so I'll get back to you on the post-college veracity of this statement.
Also my computer suddenly started lagging randomly for about a half second at a time and sometimes characters that I type just won't appear, and it's really really obnoxious.
Well, looks like the rest of May is a living hell for me.Sorry, but you don't know "living hell" until you've been in the IB program.
I am strongly anti-school.
And for some strange reason, people dislike me because of that. They dismiss my "odd" opinions as the "average teen rebel", completely ignore what I have to say to defend my opinions, then disappear, claiming they are superior to me. Saying people like me have no future seems to entertain them.
It sickens me. I'm watching society fall apart because of compulsory schooling; a single letter predetermines your future. School is not a place to learn. School is a place where you are trained to obey.
Real learning isn't memorizing a set of answers for a test. Real learning is something you do on your own.
I am labeled as an anarchic, cynical, evil, lazy person with no respect for anyone.
I am saddened by that.
On the flipside, my mom actually loved Fester's Quest.
Real learning isn't memorizing a set of answers for a test. Real learning is something you do on your own.I've thought of that before too. Unless you really do like the subject, you're going to force yourself to swallow the information, and know it. But why? So that you can pass a test and forget it all immediately afterward. What's the point? If we'd really learned anything, there'd be no need for review before finals, no need for a practice test before the star testing.

The wisdom of Calvin:
What year did the pilgrims land at Plymouth Rock?
"1620. As you can see, I have memorized this utterly useless fact long enough to pass a test question. I now intend to forget it forever. You've taught me nothing except how to cynically manipulate the system. Congratulations."
I feel really bad for the guy down my street. One time back in his 20s, he slept with a girl who told him she was 18 but was really 17, and because he happened to have a gun in his back pocket, now he's a level 3 sex offender for the rest of his life. And I bet the girl didn't get into any kind of trouble.

Well, besides the whole gun thing ("hey, is that a pistol in your pocket, or...").
I will now point out to cars4carpeople1 that "neko" is Japanese for "cat" and doesn't actually refer to any sort of cat/human hybrid.Yes, that would be "catgirls" (which I do not, contrary to popular belief, have an infatuation with).
Catgirls aren't furries, they're just really really sad things 40 and 50 year old men seem to think are hot.
They're anthromorphicized cats, therfore they are furry and possibly the worst kind of furry bait. Especially since non furries seem to find them hot too.
They're anthromorphicized...therfore they are furryOh please going by that logic Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse are furries too.
They're anthromorphicized cats, therfore they are furry and possibly the worst kind of furry bait. Especially since non furries seem to find them hot too.Well, I suppose that's one kind, but I've always seen it (on the rare occasions I stumble across one, mind you) as a (Japanese) girl with cat ears and a tail.

1. Try pressing Ctrl - Alt - Up (arrow)Wow, thanks man! I owe you one!
I have ANGST because everyone in this thread is trying to direct attention to themselves.Of course! What's the point of complaining if no one will listen?
We had an early hot spell, but suddenly it got windy and chilly. I would love it if the weather stayed constant here all summer.
If it's .zip, XP and Vista should open it automatically; then find the Extract All Files button while it's open. If it's something else, like .rar, for instance, you'll probably have to download a program for it.I downloaded the album from this site (http://gamemusic4all.com/heavytroopa.html) (maybe you've heard of it, maybe you haven't. If you have--and have successfully downloaded it, help me out here) onto a laptop running XP. It is referred to as a "WinRAR ZIP archive".
Also, why do people say "marry-o" instead of "Mario"?Sometimes I say it like that mockingly, much like how I say Pokemans and call every video game system a Nintendo.
Hey, there's nothing wrong with chocolate Mario. I'd rather have pro Nintendo rappers than anti Nintendo rappers (aka SethDub).
I have angst because Gangsters and Cosplay have joined forces to take on Mario.
I think Jim was confusing the two left most men's "silly pose" with a "gangster pose."
I nominate the above three posts for Whitest Posts of the Year.I am known for my whiteness (White's my last name, for crying out loud).
- Society's screwed up
- Your future is determined by a single letter (or number)
- Religion is slowly brainwashing people
- Schools are starting to ruin even more lives than before
- Your future is determined by a single letter (or number)
Yeah, it doesn't really have any basis in reality.
- Religion is slowly brainwashing people
Also, people who don't go to school are actually the people who have screwed up society. Saying school is "ruining your life" is just a horrible excuse to whine about something you have to do to succeed in life. But instead of actually working hard at it, people choose to complain. Sadly, because this country has a huge dropout rate, society will continue to get worse.
I have angst because people buy the concept of global warming/climate crisis hook, line and sinker, and won't rest until we're in the stone age without any technology.
Heck no, there's not! I strongly advocate recycling, planting trees, etc. But to bring it to the level of predicting global catastrophe when there's no viable evidence is ridiculous.I think we just need to hope for the best and expect the worst, as they say.
I have ANGST because, even though the new TF2 Pyro updates are amazing, it makes it near impossible to play as my favorite class. >:[They annoy me because everyone is like "lol let's get achievements" even though the pyro achievements seem like they would be fun to get and plus achievement farming is stupid.
You ARE using your name for which the configuration was made as you play in Classic Mode, correct?
Honestly, what's going to go wrong if we don't save the whales? Will we magically die if the whales went extinct?
Yeah, I discovered this after I made that post. Cheeky little Nintendo, hiding something so important at the corner of the screen...I had a brief bit of confusion about that awhile myself.
The day that people actually stop arguing about global warming (and pointing fingers at who's right and who's wrong) will be the day that we actually do something about it.
Which will never happen.
I have ANGST because my little girl cousin recently has created a dance she calls the "spunky pony". She dances around a clicks her tongue and then sings "spunkaaay ponayyys". Never has there been such a frightening display on this fragile Earth. If I here those two words together again, I can't be held responsible for my actions.Just readnig that makes me kind of annoyed.
One of my friends (and co-star of the last play I was in) posted on his myspace that he was going to commit suicide. It's really been bothering me all day. He won't answer any texts or calls or messages. His girlfriend (my other good friend) is devastated. He was always a person who got frustrated easily. He was hard-working, though, and a good friend. I'm very worried.
And I have angst because Electric keeps bumping ancient fake cheat topics.I hear ya.
One of my friends (and co-star of the last play I was in) posted on his myspace that he was going to commit suicide.TELL AN ADULT.
Unless, of course, you're robosexual. Then there's a problem.You know, being robosexual (http://www.weirdasianews.com/2008/06/22/ema-robot-girlfriends/) may not be so bad.
Unless, of course, you're robosexual. Then there's a problem.The first thing I thought of when I read that was that TV show called "My Life As A Teenage Robot". Is there something wrong with me?
Image of the Year. Definitely.
I have angst whenever I hear someone call Master Chief "Halo".
I wish I worked. Instead I'm at home all day where I glue CD shards to a styrofoam sphere to make a disco ball. Or else I replay Pokemon Yellow, knowing I'll never get all 150 because I don't have a link cable, which I couldn't buy because I don't have money because I don't have a job. The only high point in my day is when I water the flowers in the backyard, and that's only because the sunflowers are opening. At the same time it reminds me that I have to transplant the Redwood sapling before I go to college, and chances are it will parish if I don't find a good spot for it to thrive.
I'm not really complaining, I just like to pretend that the mundane details of my life are entertaining to other people.
Eeehhhhmmm, why exactly did WiiPlayer 99 get banned? I've noticed a disturbing trend of new members getting banned after only posting something slightly bizarre/naive. I mean, it's the equivalent of beating someone up for forgetting your name. And then forbidding them from existing in the immediate area. And stealing their wallet. And gluing a fifty-dollar bill to the inside with superglue, and handing it back to them and then running off.For some reason, I remember seeing that he posted before he had that custom title. Maybe it's just a custom title. Maybe I'm just seeing things.
WiiPlayer99 is 8 years old. I don't really need to tell you guys this, but there's a law that says no one can join under the age of 13 without parental approval. That might explain why he was banned so quickly.That law sounds interesting, find me a source.
Eh, I can't say I ever question authority here... anymore. Wiiplayer99 never seemed to have much of a "future" here in the first place. He also bothered me, in a slight, but noticeable way.Cool, deciding that people don't have much of a future is my favorite reason for banning ever.
I agree with NE89 on the matter he addressed. I couldn't understand why anyone is already anticipating another Zelda/Mario game. I recall seeing someone post something about anticipating another SSB already... that bothered me. It also made me laugh a little. There are already two games supporting the Mario/Zelda franchises released. I don't even understand the unsatisfactory replies made to the things Nintendo is releasing. The "Wii ______" series was obviously directed to groups/families to bring them together and help them enjoy the movement gameplay they provided. I can't say I'm not looking forward to those titles.
The plot can be crazy as all crap, but the structure that you described sounds exactly like Charmed.
There should be a network for just sitcoms that that all the other networks can focus on real shows. Sitcoms only qualify as a TV show in that they appear on TV and are shown to you.
Yeah, let's take every genre of TV show and confine them to their own separate channels, proving our disdain for diversity.
The only thing I enjoy watching is this new game show called Wipeout.
Well, that would work out well. I like the idea of turning on my TV and basically being able to select precisely what kind of show I want to watch, when (they've already done that for stuff I don't care about, like ESPN and all the news channels). But then maybe we should just outlaw sitcoms, since they suck.
My DS lite's moniter broke off and I lost the charger for it. That's whats bothering me.
I... I just laughed twice at a Turtlekid1 post.
Are these feelings normal?

Ctrl-Shift-Esc!*SA2 Eggman voice* Oh-HOH!

I have ANGST because one of my posts was just edited by Sapphira and there have been several other posts this month with coarse language in them.
Back to the topic of angst, I have found another (http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?) webcomic that sums up how I feel (how I still feel) about Nintendo's showing at E3. I hate to beat a dead horse, but I really hope Nintendo doesn't forget that it's because of the core gamer that they are still around today.
They do have a knack for picking up on what people find fun, but what if nobody bought a Super NES or SMW? What if nobody stuck with them in the N64 era? What if everybody hated the Gamecube?? What if the Wii is just a fad? Fads do go in and out of style..
What if nobody wants the next Nintendo system because they want to make it even more accessible for the causal gamer??
Ever since Hotmail was bought by Microsoft, it's been a load of crud.Fixed.

I couldn't care less about the cover up. If they want to cover up *ahem* Ivy's assets, then that's fine with me. She's a very disgusting representation of how a woman is supposed to look anyway.
Well, it's no secret that Ivy's chest is a major point of discussion in the gaming community, both in terms of "what is this world/videogames/morality coming to?" and "man, I wish I could tap that".
Great, Issac Hayes Died this morning.
I almost made an angry reply about selling used games and game consoles before I noticed that Glorb made the above post. I just can't get enough of that Genuine Glorbian Sarcasm™.
How developers are underestimating the Wii's gaming performance. Enough of the casual games on the Wii. It ruins Nintendo's reputation and completely changes the demographics of the console. I am getting a 360 for Christmas if developers are doing this.Rule of thumb 'round these parts: Keep that kind of thing to yourself (take it from me).
Don't knock them. They might have actually lent a hand in one of the games you like.I was more just knocking companies that gripe about Nintendo being more popular than them. Of course, when you're the small-time developer equivalent of Otis Blackwell (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otis_Blackwell), then it's pretty much pointless to complain about that sort of thing. Also, the only game I remember (from that article) that they worked on was Super Princess Peach, which I'm sure I'll like just as soon as I lose twenty IQ points and my manhood.
I have ANGST because the Brawl pics thread seems to have died.It's not dead; it's resting.
Super Princess Peach is a fun game with good music, even if it is horribly, horribly easy.Sounds like a Tose game!
Also, if you're going to get a free game console get a PS3 instead of a 360 because it's going to get cooler games*!!!!!!!!!!
*this is what I think.
I liked that game, am pretty smart and happily married.
I liked that game, am two grades ahead in school, and wish I had a girlfriend.Well, I meant that would most likely be the criteria necessary to get me to buy it. To each his/her own...

(stuff about Nana's Everyday Life and saying not to read it)I read it ages ago. However, the reason I'm commenting on this is the fact that I'm reading Elfen Lied right now - if you thought that webcomic was bad, you'd absolutely hate the real thing (though Nana's life isn't nearly as sad in the manga as in the webcomic).
Once again, my mom felt that it was necessary to shove lies down my throat. Is it too much to ask her to treat me like a human being rather than...whatever the heck she sees me as? For goodness sake, it's clear that she loves the dog more, but she denies it.
Turtlekid1, I'm afraid that just won't happen. She does this nearly every month and it's always the same thing over and over.
It's probably a little more easier said then done IS. Though I have never had a job in my life so I won't act like I know.

What I don't understand is why Toad keeps working retail if he hates the abuse he has to put up with. There are plenty of other jobs out there that don't require having to deal with random people who buy your stuff on a daily basis. You mentioned you were attending college or something similar right? Why not see if you can find a job through them? They probably have some listings on their website or something.
Reggie can diss what he wants. And when Reggie disses something, it becomes bad, regardless of its original quality.
I challenge your allegation of that show's goodness.
Family Guy is better than it was ever. The Simpsons is well... a hit or miss nowadays. The Simpsons was better in mid-series while American Dad is worthless. I hope people don't think that's how Americans really are. King of the Hill is alright but it's not the best animated series.
NOOOOOO
Fox just announced that they are CANCELING KING OF THE HILL. Blasphemy! Why would they do such a thing to one of the best animated shows ever? I'm just completely upset right now. But they also said that they would give it another season, so it's until 2010... I just wonder, what show is going to replace King of The Hill?
I might as well go ahead and state that I don't find any of those shows anywhere near worth my time.
Next they'll bully High Voltage into cancelling The Conduit, lest some no-name developer make money on their system.Sega's publishing it, aren't they?
Like I said, I didn't intend on buying it either, but I know lots of people did and it's the principle that counts.Power to SB! I had no intent on buying it either, but I would've considered getting it if the reviews were good. This is why I'm thinking about getting a PS2. I'm still a Nintendo girl, and I probably always will be, but it's been an aggravating 4th quarter 2008 for us loyals.
Eh, pirating and imports FTW.
I'm thinking about getting a PS2.
Yes. Now. Kingdom Hearts.I'm waiting till after Christmas.
Meh. I had no intent on buying it and one game's not the end of the world, so it doesn't bother me.

Wait, what is that?Populous DS (which is from EA, mind you).
GameCyte: Whenever you put together a sport-game compilation on the Wii, the comparison that’s going to be made is to Wii Sports. What is it that differentiates Deca Sports?LOL mature Wii Sports graduates.
Mike Pepe: We set out on Deca Sports, not to compete with Wii Sports, but to complement. Wii Sports comes with five titles, it ships with every Wii Console out there, and it really brings Wii players into the fold; it basically shows them what they can do on the system. What we offer here are ten new sports, completely new sports, with different challenges. You also have teams involved, so, for instance, there are eight different teams inside Deca Sports, each with different attributes, that you can play. So, this is for the more mature players that have “graduated” Wii Sports, and are moving on.
It is a joke. That's how PETA gets attention to their causes.
If PETA said, "Stop sport fishing" would you have read an article about it and talked about it? No. They know what they're doing, and if you think anyone actually wants fish to be called sea kittens, the joke's on you.
Exactly what part? The one where Reggie claims people who buy stuff like Wii Fit will eventually buy the more traditional games or when Cammie claims that Wii Music sales will pick up eventually?True.
They are a business and whether you like it or not, they found the key to success. It came at the expense of fanboys and the core audience of the industry, but fanboys will always complain and never leave them, justifying their position every time they come under scrutiny for buying the latest entry of one of their franchises. The core audience already abandoned them last generation, and are too busy playing Gears of War and running internet memes through the dirt to care.
Palming soon to a face near you... (http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/2012/)
Nintendo can talk about how economically savvy they are and how they offer “fantastic pocketbook value” but the truth is, spending $50 with Nintendo this holiday season gets you Wiimusic. While spending your $50 elsewhere can get you considerably higher quality titles like Resistance 2 or even Fable 2. Which, as a loyal Nintendo fan, makes me a bit upset.This person took the words out of my mouth.
Army of Two: Homosexual Encounters: ...Somewhat homo-erotic undertones between the two main characters are present.
EGM makes a few gay jokes about AoT... and this happens. *Facepalms self unconscious*

My computer is starting its standard third-year death spiral. Basically, there's a 40% I can get on the Internet at any given time, and adware popups and fake virus-protection messages constantly knock me out of games (they're obviously part of some sort of malware themselves, though I don't know what), and, bizarrely, the speakers occasionally play audio from various videos (apparently from BBC or something) without any input from me; the only fix is to log off and then back on.

Now that it is completely off your chest, there will be no excuse to keep repeating how much you hate Nintendo, right?Oh, that wasn't about hating Nintendo. That was just my analysis of various hyped games, posted on the Angst Thread because it was based on a minor gripe I had about the deluge of "Top ___ Games of ____" lists.
part of it is your unwillingness to accept that hype is sometimes deservedWhen did I say that?
Fire Emblem, well, if you don't like strategy, you don't like strategy and that doesn't make them bad.I agree with you, actually. I tried to make this clear without really coming out and saying it, but I guess it didn't work: I don't hate any of those games. I can't do that because they haven't come out yet and that's unfair judgement. However, I can form opinions about them based on their genre and style. Also, of course a game isn't bad just because I don't like its genre, but for all intents and purposes, it is to me because I probably won't enjoy it.
Finally, not paying attention to on-rails games solely because they're on-rails is dumb.I'm just not a fan of a genre. If you interpreted that as meaning that I deliberately refuse to learn anything about them, though, that's not the case. Rather, I just don't buy them (I guess I was trying to vary my writing and it backfired. As usual...).
Dead Rising: Chop Till You DropNo. They took out the Majora's Mask element, which was half the brilliance of the game. The timed day repeating is not irksome, but wonderful.
In this case, sure, some of the irksome features of the original have been fixed
If ShadowBrain has this much to **** and moan about with video games, why doesn't he find a new hobby?Because videogames, as a medium, always have the potential to be entertaining. Also, as I said before, I'm going back now and buying all the old games I never got before. And there's always games I already own and can replay.

So... you won't be able to buy DVDs with English dubs?I just didn't want to shell-out money to see the newer episodes in English, that's all. But if I have to, I will. The series ended with a cliff-hanger http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ctAGDkFkYSI&feature=channel_page and this is what BattleFlanky, the one that uploads OP episodes had to say
That must be a lot of work to dub a long series like One Piece. Doesn't it have something like 300 episodes?
It's Dragon Quest IX, not XI.Oops. That's what I thought, but I've never been good with Roman numerals.

-What is this "Winter" game no one will shut up about?We're eagerly awaiting MaxVance's announcement regarding the Winter 2008 ADVANCE Poster Awards and things are taking longer than we had anticipated...
I was looking for Ratchet and Clank, but GameStop only had the sequels.
Where I work, all the Mountain Dew bottles have the new logo. Sierra Mist has a new, incredibly more bland (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/78/Sierra_Mist_Logo_(2008).jpg) logo as well (at least, for their 2-liters).Is dulling up the logo's the 2009 trend for Pepsi? I don't like it. I hope Coke doesn't go down that same road.
Is dulling up the logo's the 2009 trend for Pepsi? I don't like it. I hope Coke doesn't go down that same road.I know! It's just slowly confirmed to me that, when trying to sell something, the less you stand out the more attention you attract (see Apple and Nintendo). Not that it's a bad thing... I mean, simple is the new complex these days, and I guess it reduces clutter and there's less ink, etc. spent... I don't know. All I do know is that, when I first saw the ad promoting the new Pepsi (logo), I thought it was for Korean Air; and I'm still not totally sure if it's just for Diet Pepsi or not (on account of its thinner-ness).
You mean like, you hadn't seen the new logo in person or what?No, a girl I know drinks Mountain Dew in class. I swear I did a double take when I saw the can (it's not like I go around just looking up "Mountain Dew" on Wikipedia--though that's what I did to bring you the link, of course).
Using their credit card. Then the FBI goes after them, not Captain.The point of piracy is to avoid paying for something.
I still think you should wait for the next one. If that one has Speed and retains Tekkaman and Viewtiful Joe, will we ever want to play the first?
Hahaha (but why do the parents need to be involved in the piracy?)
USA-exclusive? What's that?
No, a girl I know drinks Mountain Dew in class. I swear I did a double take when I saw the can

Okay, but how are you ever going to get better?
So let me get this straight:When did I say I wanted them rereleased on anything? (I own the originals, so it's not like I'd buy them if they were on the Wii) Besides, I don't even own a 360.
You wanted them on VC in 4:3 480p with no rumble
instead of
on XBLA in 16:9 1080p with rumble and Stop 'N' Swop reinstated.
You're miffed at that.
When did I say I wanted them rereleased on anything?So you're miffed because... they were rereleased? At all?
Besides, I don't even own a 360.Yeah it's too bad you spent all that money on a PS3.
So you're miffed because... they were rereleased? At all?No! I just never said anything about that.

On a side note, I'm a little peeved that so many my friends are complaining about our president Barack Obama. Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of his raving fans (I actually voted for Chuck Baldwin), but he's only been in office for two months. Give him some time and keep an open mind. Just because he's not a conservative doesn't mean he's going to tear the country up.
What's mostly annoying me now is people complaining about the new Zelda game. All the complaints seem to fall under one of three categories:You're telling me people never said any of that stuff when Phantom Hourglass came out?
- They Changed It Now It Sucks
- This Proves They're Never Going To Make A Wii Zelda
- They're trying to reclaim the joy they got when playing their first Zelda game (usually Ocarina), not realizing that for most of them, it came more from youthful imagination than the game itself.
Angst: I'm eagerly awaiting the next issues of several comics (including one from Image comics that has an unknown release schedule) and my patience is running thin.Worse comic-related angst: The comic shop nearest to me is shutting down. Though I don't read comics often, I do play tabletop games, and the nearest game store to me after this happens is an hour away. Also, my dad does read comics, and the nearest comic shop after this one shuts down is an hour away in a different direction.
- They're trying to reclaim the joy they got when playing their first Zelda game (usually Ocarina), not realizing that for most of them, it came more from youthful imagination than the game itself.This is also the reason that people have it stuck in their heads that Final Fantasy VII is the best Final Fantasy game. N64 and PSX just happened to come out with very competent games right around then, and it happened to be the time that many people first played video games. They play the two biggest selling games of their era, and they are automatically the best games ever because they were the first serious or well-done games those people chanced to play. It's 90% nostalgia. They're both good games, of course. Just nowhere near the best ever.
I have angst because of Vista's lack of options. Aero feels like more trouble than it's worth (a lot of my programs aren't compatible with it, and even with translucency off it takes up a lot of resources), so I've been trying to downgrade, but Vista Basic doesn't allow any colors other than sky blue, and on Classic, I can't figure out how to change the colors of the taskbar and the majority of the windows (making the parts of the windows that I can change just look ugly), like I used to in 98 and XP. In fact, I'm pretty sure they took that ability out for some stupid reason, and it looks like the only way to do anything about it is to switch it to a High Contrast theme, which will force it to be black instead of forcing it to be light grey. I want brown, dangit.
3D Effects changes the colour of the taskbar, I believe.It's dumb, but it works. High five.
Um, I think it's a good idea. I am very much in favor of machines that can learn. I hope we see self-aware computers within the next few decades.
My friend said he watched every episode of the anime and he still doesn't know why it's called Bleach.
I find it intensely hilarious, yet it's causing a controversy for not being appropriate for kids. The song may have originally had other implications, but its become a joke song over the years. It's simply been modified to be SpongeBob related, because Burger King's advertising firm loves being weird and for that I salute them.By your description alone, I assume you're referring to that rap about Spongbob and Burger King that was an ad for the latter. Sheer awesomeness.
Also this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTYr3JuueF4).
That BK SpongeBob commercial is ballin'. And it's more appropriate for kids than the actual show; every episode has a 50% chance of seeing either SpongeBob or Patrick's naked ass (and that's gone down from the old episodes).

WHY Super Mario Baseball for Gamecube has been sold all over the World, eccept in Italy, my country (yes, it has been sold also all over Europe)??? I still can't believe this!!
They told it was because of the lack of success of baseball sport, but there are so many videogames with not so common sports here!! These ideas make me think that Nintendo of Italy is the lazier one, as always!!
At the end they must think that there are many Italian fans of Mario games, and even if the game is a little strange for the common use here, they will be surely sold a lot also in our Country!!
Then, Super Mario Baseball for Wii has been sold all over the World, eccept in Europe. Oh, I can accept this, because we normally say " if we are all sad, we are all "half happy", because everyone feels our sadness. Just to give an optimistic point of view where there isn't.... XD

Well, I got GTA4 for PC. I installed it, jumped through all its ridiculous hoops (joining Rockstar Social Club, installing Rockstar Social Club, joining Games for Windows Live, installing Games for Windows Live, getting all the updates for both of them), and when I ran it, it was slow as molasses on its lowest settings. Either this game is too advanced for my computer, not optimized enough, or my computer just sucks. I did manage to milk about ten minutes of seven-FPS entertainment out of it before uninstalling, though.
What I don't like about Starbucks is their shamelessness. A tip box on the drive-thru window? Get real.
From what I hear, GTAIV was just a horribly made port. I've read reports of people with awesome computers having a lot of trouble getting the bloody thing to run satisfactorily. What are your computer stats?
The Rhythm Game Zeitgeist went braindead a few years ago.Highly wrong. The DS Rhythm Heaven is one of the best ever and came out only this year. BIT.TRIP CORE is also original and nice. And The Beatles: Rock Band has possibly the best opening cutscene in gaming history.
I'm not sure if angst is the right word for it, but I worry about my dad. He always called my step-mother before lunch and before coming home from work. He ate lunch at home with her most days too. Now he's all alone in a house full of her stuff.I've been going through some of my old posts and many seem surreal. Some even seem like someone else could have written them, but his one is special. It haunts me. It was a very sad time when my step-mother died and I now realize that I didn't even say that in the above post.
She'd been collecting dishes and books for her kids, grandkids, etc. My step-mother didn't want anything gone through for at least two weeks after she was gone. Now that most of the family has gone back to their homes he has to sort all of stuff out almost completely on his own.
On top of all of all that her clinically crazy brother is still living in a camper at my dads house. He had attacked my step-mother at least once and is there because he was put in her custody after something happened with the police. Now my dad has to get him off the property before he hurts anyone else.
Edit: BTW, this was my step-mother's only post here: http://themushroomkingdom.net/board/index.php?action=profile;u=58270;sa=showPosts She never got to hold Hannah, but at least she saw her on the web cam once and saw some pictures.

I doubt it. See, long-running members such as TEM and LD get a free pass on saying/doing annoying/******baggy stuff (bing a dick, saying the same thing over and over, abusing colored text to the point that it gets banned, etc.) because they're just like so totally cool and gangsta. He's just taking advantage of that privilege.
M&L:BIS supposedly came out today but, per usual, Game Crazy doesn't have it.No body seems to have it here. On Sunday, the Toys 'R Us $10 gift card deal apparently wasn't valid to the one near me, and they didn't even have the shipment of them in. Today I checked Target and Walmart, neither of which had them shipped in. If no one has them shipped in by tomorrow, I'm gonna be pretty mad.

there's this one giant one that my tongue can't help but rake against my teeth, causing more pain and angst.I know what that's like. I've had it happen a few times. I've also had cases where my wisdom teeth pinch/bite the heck out of my cheek.
EDIT: Bowser X is impossible. Urgh.

That's...painful, ShadowBrain. How'd the weight drop on your head?!There was this rack in the school weightroom that had the little weights at the top and the big ones at the bottom. Someone had put too many five-pounders on the top, and when I was putting a heavier weight on down below, the jostling caused to fall. It wasn't a dead-on hit, though, but it certainly was more than a mere graze.
I can't remember if I ever mentioned this or not, but one time, a 25 pound weight fell on my big toe. On another occasion, a five pound weight fell on my head.
:O (http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=25525)Explain clearly in words why this is bad news.
Holy [dukar], bro. I've had heavy stuff hit my head, but that toe bit made me cringe.
I await the day when there is only one giant company so I can stop watching people FREAK THE F OUT every time one company buys another.
I have angst because it's about 4 right now, and it was about 3 when I started restarting my computer.If you're using Windows I'm sure you'll have angst again when you see how long it takes on Tuesday.
Anyway, I'm starting to think I must've ****ed off some gypsy, because now I've got two more staph infections--one under my right arm and one on the underside of my lower leg (calf?)--and my brother has one as well, and/or maybe-cellulitus. I'm supposed to go see a dermatologist... eventually.
I didn't think the princess was that much of a *****.

Their reactions are ridiculous, but so is the growing industry concept of making more expensive versions of games full of extra stuff and frills.
Well, I decide to go for a walk to be fit and relax from the problems in my life, and what happens? Two ********s corner me and make me hand over my phone. If this is what happens when I try to care about people, I think it's in my best interests to be a totally self-serving prick from now on...
Trainman, I'm disappointed with you. Those figures' heads don't resemble dicks at all.

Looking through a person's history searching for a comment made three years ago: not creepy.
I actually have a moderate interest in seeing 2012 and/or Transformers 2 now, if only because I also have a hard time believing at least one of those movies could be as dumb as this one.
...no one freaked out at all on 6.6.06.No, some people did--they were just criminally retarded.
I do have somewhat a monotone voice...
Ah, [dukar]. Youtube now has non-skippable ads which you must sit through before watching certain videos.
Boy, have I got work over break...
The new Nintendo Points cards suck. If you actually try to scratch it with a coin, you will end up shredding the cardboard and rendering several numbers illegible before you figure out that you should just ignore the instructions and peel the sticker off (in annoyingly tiny chunks).
Gonna try and call their support number and see if I can just give them the numbers at the bottom.

the Avatar movie (the one I thought was based on the Nick show)I thought the same thing. Apparently the in-development movie based on the Nick show has had its title changed to simply The Last Airbender to avoid confusion.

Me, but I'm over it.My last post here was just a failed attempted at getting you to give more information. Myself and my deceased step-mother are probably the only two people to have posted here that my sisters would know anyway.
EDIT: Me had girl problems, that is, not me had the crush on Luigison's sister. Unless there's a really weird coincidence here.

I use the HN7000S's equivalent of this (http://customercare.myhughesnet.com/frm_usage_9series.cfm) page to check. No login necessary - just put in your satellite's site ID and it'll let you bring up a page with usage stats (updated hourly) for either that month or the previous month.*blinks* Well THAT was easy! That worked like a charm and avoided the hassle of logging in, and all I had to do was type in the site ID which was no problem at all. Why the heck couldn't they link to that page before (or why can't I find a quick link to it on Hughes' website)? And previous times when I accessed it through the Usage Info thing, it'd appear in a popup window, presenting the possibility of me not seeing the direct web address to it anyway. The only advantage accessing it through the login page is that it fills in the site ID automatically, that's it. Thanks WarpRattler!
Mike_Z, I think that any movie critic worth his or her salt would decry the sort of sex jokes found in NMH2 if they ever showed up in a film. Thing is, they generally don't. The humour in NMH2 is basically the stuff of low-grade soft-core p-rn, and the unspeakably wooden actors deliver it as if it were so.
I reiterate: if the dirty jokes were of the caliber seen in a movie like Superbad or The Hangover I'd join in and laugh until my sides split. The fact is that phrases like "It's wh-re time!" just aren't funny, for any number of reasons.This man self-censors "porn" and "whore", but thinks that Superbad and The Hangover were side-splitting.

That brings me back to an interesting conundrum I've thought about for a while. The last number of lives before a gamer reaches a game over in some games is 1; while, it's 0 in other games. Which way is better? I personally think it should be 0, because the life currently in use isn't an extra.I completely agree with you and for the same reason.

Glorb's Custom Title has me worried... How long has it been like that?
Man, that's a relief. Sensible punishment makes the fungus considerably more trustworthy.
over nine hours' worth of tedious, mind-numbingly monotonous training.Maybe you should reevaluate your choice of games.
Final Fantasy III DS has a three-file save system. My first, "good" file had approximately 83 hours of progress logged into it. My second file, used for backup purposes, had 74 hours. My thrid file contained a recently-restarted quest in which I had last made exactly 14 minutes' progress. Having grown tired of grinding for the game's hidden superboss in my first file, I decided to make some headway in my File Three game. I soon chose to save my game as any prudent player would do.
You all should know what happens next.
Expecting the "which file do you want to overwrite?" cursor to automatically appear over the third file slot, I saved. And overwrote my first file. And lost over nine hours' worth of tedious, mind-numbingly monotonous training.
:'D

Mr. Wiggles rejected my friend request on PS3.

Yup, you and Weegee are definitely bros.
You're not in love with him. You have a crush on him.

I can always count on WarpRattler and/or Captain Jim to tell me it sucks
PSP emulation sucks. Kingdom Hearts sucks.
I love how whenever I say I don't like something it's treated as a personal attack. Turtle, I don't like a lot of the stuff you like, sorry. I can't help it. But know that it doesn't mean I dislike you personally.Yeah, I know. You're an awesome guy. Which is one of the reasons I'm so bothered that apparently we have like almost none of the same things.
Telling the truth and being a jerk are often the same thing. Get over it.Even if it was more than just your subjective opinion against his subjective opinion, it's not like you have to argue it every time the topic comes up. You're like a vegetarian who wanders around a restaurant listening to other people order and whenever you hear a waitress ask someone if they want their burger rare or well-done, you run over and yell at both of them that meat is murder and they shouldn't be eating a burger anyway.
[Awesome post]
Because things like having to spend hundreds of dollars and hours to play several grindy JRPGs about a group of spiky-haired, amnesiac, and/or emo teenagers are subjective, right?
Reply #6666
Those people are deluding themselves, then, because that's exactly what the Kingdom Hearts games are. Trying to say they aren't is like trying to say Fate/Stay Night isn't a hentai game that features a story solely to get to the next hentai scene, or that Ladies versus Butlers! isn't just an anime about underage girls in near pornographic situations. Even with all the characterization and story stuff in the former and the different ways the girls undress in the latter, at the end of the day Fate/Stay Night is a game made for lonely nerds to jerk off to, and, well, so is the anime.
I love how PL breaks out the old "stop trolling" and "cool story bro" whenever he loses an argument.
JRPGS suck because anime and Disney both suck.

More internet woes: I can't figure out how to get my wireless router to work. This may be just a coincedence, but it seems like every time I set up the wireless (so that my Wii and DS can connect) our connection on the computer will be fine for a couple of days and then get extremely slow. So slow that we have to refresh a page several times to get it to open up and exit out of/open Internet Explorer and things like that.Do you have it secured? Just a thought, but someone could theoretically be leeching off your connection and hogging the bandwidth.

Exactly. I already disabled what's new and popular on my Youtube homepage to prevent further brain damage from our mindless culture. Did I go too far?

But for reals guys, you guys need to get more tolerant. Every day I look at YouTube videos I see at least 600 comments devoted to saying whatever I'm watching is better than Lady Gaga. If, apparently, everyone hates her, then why is she our yardstick for quality on everything all of a sudden?

Well, can't get Garry's Mod because apparently my complimentary copy of Portal doesn't count as a source game because it was free. So if I want that game, I'll have to buy Portal again, meaning I won't be getting it for less than thirty bucks.
Greedy jerks.
God, what is wrong with kids these days. You got a full game for free and you're complaining. Give me a break.I'm not complaining about getting a "full" game for free, I'm complaining about that "full" game not counting as a Source game for Garry's Mod solely because I got it for free, when it would have if I had bought it. I would have to purchase a game I already own, rendering my getting it for free completely invalid.
And besides, just buy a different Source engine game like Half-Life 2 or Team Fortress 2 (especially Team Fortress 2). That way you have an I-Paid-Money-For-it Source game for Garry's Mod to recognize, and you get to use both games' content!Can't. M-Rated. Not allowed.

So you didn't play Portal at all?I did. It's good.
Portal's a solid game, you got it for free and are acting like a spoiled little kid. You want "all" of the content, go buy it.If they're going to advertise it as being the full game when they give it away, then they shouldn't exclude it from enabling Garry's Mod. And no, I'd rather not pay 200% of the actual price of GM just because getting it for free doesn't work. I've said this many, many times: I don't have the money to shell out on games at will. I have to prioritize which games I want and then prioritize which games I really want because games are expensive. I don't have the money to spend on a copy of a game I already have to get a feature that maybe should have been included already.

Also, I was really cheesed off when I wrote that initial complaint. The shock had not worn off, if you will. I'm looking at it with a more level head now, and while I realize that I have no real right to be able to run GM with my copy of Portal, it was still a dumb idea to exclude free games from enabling one to purchase it.
Just because TK's not in a situation to throw down wads of cash on every Big Man AAA PC Game he comes across doesn't mean he's acting like a spoiled brat. The dude wants to be able to use stuff he owns to the fullest extent, whether or not he paid for it, and I have to agree, it's a bit of a foul-up on Valve's part.

Dragon Quest IX, on the other hand, is an incredibly modern JRPGDo you do stand-up? Because that's the best joke I've heard all day.
So the innovative part is where you go to a town, learn their problems, buy new weapons and amour, then solve the town's problem by going through a nearby dungeon and beating a boss, repeat. That's the innovative part?(https://themushroomkingdom.net/board/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fen%2F3%2F3a%2FDiablo_Coverart.png&hash=193cba4b59057c74052cb8d01eb916b1)
innovativePlease explain to me how "innovative" equals "modern," which is what I said.
It's not even like actual co-op. You just become a character in the other person's party, but it helps in no meaningful way because it's still the same turn-based 4-person-max setup. It's like in some of the FFs where you can set certain controllers to control certain characters. Woo! Fun! Or you can go off on your own and not be in the other person's battles. But since the monsters are infinite, that does even less, and you're alone in an area that's probably too hard for you! And the funniest part of all: you can't progress your own "world" while helping someone else so you're going to have to do it all again anyway.Save for the bits relating to the combat setup, your comparison to another series, and the infinite monsters, you just described Diablo multiplayer. Which, since Dragon Quest IX multiplayer is largely the same way (including things like boosted experience gains when you have multiple players in the same world), is pretty apt.
you don't exactly have to play through an entire game to see things like characters' personalities, contrived and generic story elementsIf you're referring to JRPGs, fine, because I don't know much about those, but if you're referring to video games in general, I beg to differ. I thought of three games instantly after reading that sentence that you definitely have to finish until you know things like the characters' personalities and the story elements.
DQIX multiplayer is not like Diablo in any way.Let's see...
the other players are taking experience that could be going to your normal non-human party membersSince the game can feasibly be completed with any sort of party, including one consisting of no one aside from the hero, this is less of an issue than you're making it out to be. Especially since said hero is getting more experience playing with others than he would playing with his own three party members, because experience gains for everyone get boosted when you have more players in an instance. You know, like Diablo II. Unlike that game, though, in DQ9 the levels themselves are less important than the skill points earned from leveling up, because levels don't carry across classes (not that D2 has class-switching) (yes, I'm aware that leveling in D2 is a very different beast from leveling in DQ9).
the fact that multiple humans taking their own actions will have less of an overall cohesive strategy than one human controlling all 4 party members (at best, equal cohesiveness).I'll grant you that different players will probably have different strategies, but the same goes for pretty much any co-op game that doesn't have strategies of the "this is the only thing worth doing" variety, and in this it'd rarely be anything less than equal cohesiveness, because it's pretty easy to coordinate when it's turn-based and you can only do local wireless. And different strategies could be a good thing; as a very basic example, one player might have advanced their hero in a class the others didn't, and be able to use skills the rest can't as a result.
only the host player can make storyprogressLike Diablo. I think this is actually a good thing for a story-based game like Dragon Quest, so I like that it's set up so that only the host player can initiate story events, rather than, using Diablo II's first act as an example, it being possible for a high-leveled guest player to go kill Andariel while the host is still in the Den of Evil.
leaving any other players to take their now-overleveled single character back to their "real" gameLike Diablo. Except in this it's less of an issue, since, again, skill points are more important than any levels earned through experience.
What meaningful additions does DQIX have that DQVII or DQVIII didn't?The main one I can think of is non-random battles (which DQ8 sort of did, but only with the special monsters for the arena; Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker did it for everything, but DQ9 is the first standard game in the series to have regular field encounters be that way), which really is a bigger deal than you'd think. And tied to that, while not doing the whole "you win low-level battles instantly after a certain level" thing EarthBound does (it can't because of the sidequests), DQ9 does have weaker monsters in the field run away from you if they see you, so you can chase them down if you need to, or just ignore them. I believe Chrono Trigger did this, and know the last two Persona games did, but I can't think of anything else. They also expanded heavily on the alchemy system from DQ8, but this could also be seen as a bad thing, since the game has over a thousand different items, and you can only find certain recipes through trial and error.
Bringing FFXIII's characters into the discussion seems weird because DQIX has NO characters.I'm sure Chupperson will disagree with me here, but I think not having characters with personalities is better than having characters I can't like, even though the latter is the "modern" approach. (Actually, the true modern approach is pretending you're making a WRPG and/or a dating sim instead of a JRPG when you're writing character interactions, but Atlus is the only company doing that.)
It's important to note that in none of these posts I'm trying to say DQIX is a "bad game".Nor am I saying you are. My apologies if it seemed otherwise; it may very well have given how often you attack the genre at hand.
I'm saying DQIX gameplay philosophy is roughly on par with the FFIII era, and thus Tycho is a hypocrite regarding SCII.And I'm saying that DQ9 as a whole is closer to this decade than SC2. And as I said before, while I don't necessarily agree with Tycho's opinions regarding the game (particularly anything he said with regards to editors, since the SC2 editor is a lot more versatile than the WC3 editor, and is a part of the game where his sentiments simply do not apply), I do believe it's right to say that the end result after twelve years being little more than a remake of the original is a bit disappointing.
I do think [DQ9] was hurt by their multiplayer fixation in two ways: it necessitated the aforementioned lack of player character personality and caused the game to be on DS, which nosedived the series' graphics. (Not that DQ cares about graphics--look how it stayed up through DQVII--but DQVIII was just so gosh darned pretty...)While I do agree that it being built as a multiplayer game hurts it in terms of them designing a central cast and in terms of some of what they could have done with the gameplay, as you said, Dragon Quest isn't about the graphics (though DQ8 is indeed a beautiful game, and I believe DQMJ looked better than DQ9), and it being on the DS adds the very wonderful feature of it being portable*. I do have a different aesthetic issue with the same cause, though: while Koichi Sugiyama's musical compositions are excellent as always, their rendition as digital audio (aside from the overture) rather than live orchestra recordings as in the previous game is rather depressing (particularly because the OST is the same way).
Curses! I bought the sixth Penny Arcade book the other day, and they've just now implemented a 10% discount code! (on account of the warehouse being moved)I got to a computer and tried to order book 6 today but they're sold out. So don't feel bad; you're the winner, not a loser.
If you've been wondering where I was the last few weeks: I inadvertently locked my Windows install into infinitely rebooting while battling a virus and have had very limited internet access (using others' PCs). I still haven't fixed anything / bought a new PC
That kind of thing is really why the ANGST thread shouldn't exist. It prevents anything that should rightfully exist as its own thread from.... existing as its own thread.
I appreciate all your messages. A lot, actually.
Maybe this type of situation warrants its own thread because, yes, while it's angst, it's doesn't really fit the "complain here" aspect of the thread and it's much more serious than, "lol [darn] it i broke my ds." It sort of drags the whole thread down, and makes it hard to know when to pick the thread back up with other angsty happenings without coming off as being uncaring or apathetic towards a person's loss, kinda like if you said, "ahh sucks trainman..... wellll okay, i lost my game the other day and..."
I'm not too sure. What do you guys think?

Remember when my IP address was banned from Fungi Forums because it also belonged to a spambot? Well, it's happened again: According to 4chan, I used the site to request child pornography on April 22, 2007, and have been permanently banned from all boards since then. I wasn't even using 4chan in 2007, and I was only made aware of the ban today. How might I go about manually changing my IP address to one not shared with a pedophile? Also, could I somehow anchor the new one so something like this doesn't happen again?
I feel like getting banned from 4chan should be a sign to do something more productive with your life.
I have the same problem with a good number of the IPs in HughesNet's range, Weegee, and as my IP basically gets reset every time the satellite connection gets reset, it happens a lot. As far as I can tell, there's nothing that can be done about it.

This is one of those times when I have no idea what to say, and so I usually end up not saying anything.This is the problem I've been going back and forth about with myself. I suppose I'm afraid of seeming insensitive or looking like a jerk, but... this isn't really about me.
Toad you're ruined this illustrious and intellectually engaging thread forever. [darn]ation and curses upon you, sir.
My condolences to you and your family, Toad. I am so sorry for your loss.
This is one of those times when I have no idea what to say, and so I usually end up not saying anything. But I have to say something, even if all I say is that I'm hugging you through the internet, Toad.
This is the problem I've been going back and forth about with myself. I suppose I'm afraid of seeming insensitive or looking like a jerk, but... this isn't really about me.
Just know that you're in my prayers, man. I'm very sorry to hear about it.
You're a strong person for being able to talk about it, Toad.I agree.
Hmm.. It won't let me edit again for some reason. Trainman: I want to apologize for the joke about 1-Up Mushrooms that I made ages ago when your friend (relative?) passed. It was wrong and out of place.
I see what happened. You should be able to get in now.
Wrong thread, Trainman?No, seventeen minutes before I almost threw it at a wall. Instead, I tried again (required unplugging it) and still it took so long I gave up and emailed Nintendo.
Seventeen minutes to load? Yikes...

Well, it's sad but Nintendo of America is juking out on us with the Super Mario All-stars thing, and their giving us a limited edition Wii and DS instead for the Mario Anniversary. :\Is that confirmed? The 25 Years of Super Mario site says, "Make sure to celebrate with Nintendo by checking back in on this site in weeks ahead." While these could simply refer to new wallpapers and videos, I'm still holding out hope for a SMAS disc.
You don't buy the SMAS 25th anniversary package for the game disc. You buy it for the art book and audio CD.So again, why don't they just make the book and CD a Club Nintendo prize (or maybe just available in stores) and release SMAS on VC?
a Club Nintendo prizeWhere it'd be too late to celebrate the 25th anniversary, which is, you know, the entire point.
available in storesWhere it'd be relegated to the strategy guide rack and sit for all eternity.
No, I think they're just designed to play games. I never heard anyone say they had pockets in mind.
What do you guys do to your DSes?
I assume you did try recalibrating it already.Yeah, but I don't think it worked.
I like wearing pants with a lot of pockets; they allow you to store items in an organized manner. I don't think I have any pants that have 8 pockets, though.
On topic:
My Math professor made an unfair midterm :(. One word problem literally took 20 minutes to complete and the test was loaded with other word problems. I had only an hour and ten minutes to complete the exam.

He has to prepare his body for the next step. I imagine his body will be ready when the 3DS is released.
I'm actively being prevented from using my system when people are playing these games, just as I would be actively prevented from seeing one movie if I had to go see the other.
And considering how loud my siblings love to be when they're playing games, I still have to hear it. Headphones don't help.
Well, after our post-Christmas shopping, I own fully half of our Wii game library, with two shmups (Blast Works and Castle of Shikigami III), a fighter (Tatsunoko vs. Capcom), and a rhythm game (Samba de Amigo). So I've pretty much dealt with that problem before it really began. And my sister bought Rune Factory Frontier, so at least one of my siblings is doing things right.
(She also wants to play Mushihime-sama now that she has a working PS2 again. That alone makes up for everything else.)
The AC adapter for my netbook has decided to stop working. And a replacement adapter from ASUS would cost $50. And it happened to do this a week before spring semester starts.
I've seen you mention specific games you're looking forward to.I won't be able to buy them without money. But more to the point, I'm speaking in a general sense. Whenever I think about my future, I realize that my life is already at its peak and get very depressed.
I won't be able to buy them without money. But more to the point, I'm speaking in a general sense. Whenever I think about my future, I realize that my life is already at its peak and get very depressed.
Yeah? What's in your future? How do you even know?Labor. Toil. A high ratio of misery to enjoyment, unless I'm very lucky.
You're what, 17?Yes.
Are you afraid of getting a job? Going to college?Extremely.
Not going to college?I don't have much choice in the matter. Mind you, I'd still rather have a college education than not have one.
You've lived at home your whole life, right? There's tons of things you haven't experienced yet. Hell, I'm 24 and I'm just getting started.If I were concerned about not having new experiences, this wouldn't worry me. But I feel woefully unprepared for life.
Life's what you make of it, buddy. If you think it's going to be awful, then it's going to be.
But he who has low expectations is never disappointed.
Well, why haven't you gotten one then?Don't think I haven't tried. Of course, I also need to get a driver's license to have any sort of real options. And that's what really scares me, not the getting a job part.
But city driving? Morons around every corner. I've never had any problems on a straight road going at a high speed. It's when I'm stopped at intersections that I'm worried about.
Driving (automatic transmission) is easier than every single videogame you have ever played.had nothing to do with "being good at" games. Just playing them. Of course being good at games is harder than driving.
It almost seems like Fast Eddie is deliberately flushing TV Tropes down the crapper.

I want to like Ocarina of Time, but between the framerate and the slow pacing, I just... can't. How did this game ever become as popular as it is?Hand it to Nostalgia Goggles.
Hand it to Nostalgia Goggles.
The game was huge when it came out. Nostalgia might have something to do with where people rank it, but its popularity surely stems from it being a great game.
Pacing is just... I don't know. The beginning just seems to move very slowly, which may have something to do with the framerate, but it doesn't feel like the story is going anywhere. I can't put my finger on it, and I'm perfectly willing to admit that it has a lot to do with my personal preference, but it just does not move fast enough for me.
The game runs perfectly fine on a real N64. Have you even beaten the whole game yet?No, on account of the the fact that it doesn't hold my interest.

Well, it actually made sense that Yamamoto would be doing the score for the show, since he's already proven his competence with the games' soundtracks. Now that I think of it, they should just replace the plagiarized stuff with the music from the Budokai series. Still Yamamoto, except not plagiarized and much better anyway.
Bah. Bruce Faulconer is where it's at, anyway.

Awesome.For every student I teach with a 120 plus IQ there is a student with below an 80 IQ. The later group is more likely to work at McDonald's.

Better than Dexter's Lab? The PowerPuff Girls!? Samurai Jack!?DL sucked after the first two seasons, he didn't create PPG, and Samurai Jack always looked cool but the fights got kind of boring and there's not much in the way of story. (Some, but not much.)
DL sucked after the first two seasons
And Dexter's voice changed. The different art sucked too.
He's referring to the original 52 episode run, the one Tartakovsky directed. The series was put back in production in 2001 with a new studio at the same time that Tartakovsky moved on to Samurai Jack. You could tell too since it had an art style shift and a retconned Mandark backstory that sucked.
To be fair the reason for Dexter's new voice was because Christine Cavanaugh retired from voice acting. Oddly enough she also voiced Chuckie Finster on Rugrats, both roles of which Simpsons voice actress Nancy Cartwright took her place.
...but more importantly, and to my great chagrin, I'm going to have to get my wisdom teeth removed.

1. I wouldn't bring TV Tropes up on this forum if I were you. Certain fun-hating people won't take kindly to that.
2. I agree wholeheartedly, and was actually just discussing this on another forum about an hour ago. The direction in which the site is headed... well, to put it bluntly, it sucks. Between the rampant destruction of the fun trope names and the enforced, all-pervasive "BE POSITIVE OR ELSE" attitude, it's just not a nice place to be anymore. Still, the forums are all right if you stay away from the boards pertaining to the wiki itself.
it looks so...shamelessly inoffensive, like Know Your Meme.

RE: having paid for Audiosurf and having to deal with an ad for another game whenever you play it: I'm guessing from your displayed playtime and from when you earned achievements that you bought it during the Potato Sack sale, which was Portal-related. So you're complaining that there was a Portal ad in a game you paid for during a sale that was specifically designed to advertise Portal.It wasn't marked as that. There was a thing below that said you could also get it as part of a bundle of games, but I didn't bother reading that part because I don't have $40.
RE: why Valve gets away with this stuff: If it were any of those things you mentioned, it'd be done solely using their own products. Valve, in the course of this whole campaign, not only advertised their own game (that was guaranteed to be a huge seller anyway), but also helped promote the games of several other, much smaller companies, and in doing so helped introduce a great deal of brand-new and highly-enjoyable content to most of the games involved. Look at The Ball, which featured a new campaign in which you progressed through ruined versions of several of the test chambers from Portal, or Defense Grid, which was given two brand-new maps (one of which featured brand-new dialogue for both GLaDOS and the game's own cynical AI) and a couple of neat little minigames. Many of the other games featured similar (though less expansive) additions. And all of this was entirely free content added to existing games.So why couldn't they do that for Audiosurf?
Valve also flew nine of the ARG's participants out to Seattle to play Portal 2 early. Not press, but normal players who had devoted themselves to solving the puzzle Valve had laid out.ARG? More liek ARGH!
On top of that, anyone who earned all thirty-six potatoes (which required players to complete objectives in all thirteen games, plus join a certain Steam community group) was given the Valve Complete Collection at Portal 2's launch. That's twenty-two games, in a pack that normally sells for $100, as a reward for playing other companies' games.What are you, GlADOS's wife?
RE: it being a sucky ad: I never even heard a GLaDOS voice clip when I went to launch Audiosurf to try to earn the two potatoes for it. It just forced me to play "The Device Has Been Modified" on Pointman as my first song, and that was the song I was going to play anyway because it was part of the ARG content."Interesting song selection. You must have had good taste in music. A long time ago. Now redirecting you to the correct song."
3. The Potato Sack promo ends in less than five hours. Presumably the ARG content will go away at that time as well.Does that mean "Update Paused" will go away from a quarter of my games?
By the way, I'm friending a bunch of you in Steam right now, so you better all add me. (Is there a topic for that somewhere? I don't know.) And you better have the same taste in music as me so we can fight in Audiosurf.I was thinking the same thing about the potential for a Steam accounts thread, but I don't think it happened. I got invited into the TMK group, though, and I'm friends with Luigison and Warp, but that's it so far. Hey, wait, what's the difference between being friends and being in a group? Because there's a lot of people in the group... oh, I don't know, this post is getting disjointed enough as it is.
My name in there is CrossEyed7. Don't forget it.
Also some of you have different names there than here, so maybe you should add me yourself so I know you're you.
Anyway, I knew it was only a matter of time, but I found where the ED backup torrents are! Do I dare...?

PaperLuigi don't give up like that. It's wimpy
I was immediately concerned that the only pony that looked slightly angry or tomboyish was the rainbow pony. Since there’s a false stereotype that all feminists are angry, tomboyish lesbians, it was disconcerting to think that a kid’s TV show would uphold this.Is it just me, or does sociological criticism like this pretty much always boil down to hypocritical circular reasoning? "That one pony looks tomboyish. This evil patriarchical society thinks all feminists are angry or that lesbians are all tomboys or tomboys are all lesbian feminists but in a bad way or some combination of that, therefore this pony, created by patriarchs, cannot simply be a tomboy, but must be a horrid stereotype of angry tomboy lesbian feminists, which is bad. How dare they!"
I showed the video to fellow Ms. intern/blogger Kyle and asked, “What’s wrong with this picture?” he responded, “There aren’t any black ponies. Why aren’t there any brothas on the wall?” I had originally assumed that the purple ponies were supposed to represent black ponies, but he was right–the ponies don’t seem very racially diverse.There aren't any Caucasian ponies either, dumb***. Because they're ponies.
My Little Pony teaches girls that you need the government (ideally a monarch invested with supreme ultimate power and a phallic symbol strapped to her forehead) to tell you what to do with your life.Okay, this has to be a parody site.

This just can't be how other liberals comport themselves.
I think it's absurd that people get offended by cartoons.Uh?
I like how you think it's satire and that people can't just be that insane
I can understand that sentiment for things like this, but we shouldn't pretend things that are blatantly offensive aren't because of their medium.

RRoD is caused by having the console run for too long, correct? I never got my very own red ring, but I made my Wii die that way at least twice before figuring out that leaving it on while away for the weekend probably wasn't a good idea
Also, Camping says it happens 6 PM local time everywhere, so even if he's right, Americans will have plenty of warning as reports come in from Australia.
However, if Camping is right about everything, then it's impossible to be saved after 1988 anyway, so it's kinda pointless.
Howeverever, if Camping were right about everything, the world would have ended multiple times already.

To say religion is nonsense is indirectly critical of everyone who believes in one. As "Mario games are terrible," would indirectly insult the taste of everyone who enjoys them.
all atheists are angry elitists.
But you also have to ask yourself if those beliefs are worth having. Religion is more than just a taste as opposed to liking Mario games.
Professed straight people that use homophobic rhetoric like Weegee's use of the word "gay" above have been shown to be aroused by gay porn. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8772014
Even saying that, supposing that attempting to get people to reevaluate their beliefs (every time the topic comes up) was actually your intention, then don't you think calling it "nonsense" or another derogatory word is much less effective than respectfully explaining your point?
I can hear the porn my dad is watching in our living room.
Turtlekid1, you should try to be gay. Really try. Give it a few of weeks. Go on a date. Watch some gay entertainment. Look longingly into your dates eyes for several minutes. Make out. Enjoy it. Want to do it again. Be gay.
If you can force yourself to be gay, really gay, then it is a choice. If you can't decide to be gay then someone who is gay probably can't just decide to be straight. If you find it impossible to change your sexual orientation then stop calling others people's orientation a choice.
Do this sound like a fair challenge?
About the Wii U controller, it looks like something from Apple and is therefore gay.

Second, the jury found her not guilty after hearing all the testimony and viewing the evidence, it's not anyones place to condemn her because YOU think she's guilty.

The Neil Sedaka CD I bought today features re-recordings of his early hits rather than the original versions.
Ah, such is life for an oldies fan.
Because then I ask them what its like to see colors ...
It's FANTASTIC! The array and beauty of all the hues inherent to the spectrum of visible light is vibrant and energizing! Seeing a lively display of color in tasteful or extravagant extremes can make my day! Film and artwork employ a new dimension of communication and artistry when in conversation with color and enriches the entire experience many times over! I love seeing colors!
And what's the problem with being forward? Just cut to the chase "I think you're cool let's go out". No hemming and hawing Do they Don't they malarkey.If you're hot, nothing is wrong with it. If you're ugly, it means you're creepy.
I don't mean for someone to go up to a person they fancy, ask them out, and if they say no, follow them around with a pair of binoculars.Well, I can certainly agree with the "not following them around with binoculars" part, but it's always been my philosophy that if they're worth asking out, then it's going to be pretty difficult to just "move on" just like that.
Just be calm, ask the person, and if they say no move on. Don't make the most difficult part of the relationship the very beginning. And, if they do think you're creepy, so what? It's when the person you're already dating thinks you're creepy you have a problem
Weegee: The difference between manual and automatic transmission and the basic mechanics behind the former aren't taught in school either, but no one I know seems to have a problem with knowing such.

Wow. That shouldn't be allowed to happen.I thought the same thing and wanted to help, but in my research only found that it's a fairly common problem. Sorry Warp. In my research I found that it is handled slightly different from state to state. What state are you in and is the lien in the same state? If not, where is it from?
The third-party controller in that image is the same one I own, and it's a pretty [darn] good controller.Based on that I don't consider HORI third party.
And the one BP had before was a first-party controller.
I think the custom title was just a gag, meant to [encourage] you to build up a better reputation as you post here over time. I think there used to be a way to win a chance to change your custom title by making clever posts over time or something...Ah, thank you! As for you, Toad, I know the pain. Just be happy for her. She's in a better place now.
I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother, Toad. Family deaths give me a sinking feeling inside. My mother died from liver cancer this summer before I came back here, and I wasn't sure whether/when to say anything.
i'm really sorry to come to you with bad news today, but yesterday paypal has decided to 'permamanently limit' my account because they found out i've used to receive funds generated by this site and that is against their tos. also permanently limited is paypal term for 'we perma b& u and your family as long as you live under the same address and try to register another account evar again'. so yeah, that sucks and i'm a teeny bit butthurt, but whatever. can't pretend i didn't see that coming.
quoik faq tl;dr style:
what does this mean for chanarchive?
- can't pay the next server invoice due this coming friday.
can't you save the site somehow?
- well, here is the thing... do i really, really want to? together with some personal [dukar] going down at the moment, i seriously have no motivation jumping though hoops and ****ing loops to run this site anymore. on th contrary, i'm a bit relieved to be released (albeit forcefully) from this burden.
is there really nothing that could be done?
- well, there is a way to redirect the ad revenue to paxum and get a master card from them and pay the servers that way. but issuing that card would take a month and with the site going down presumably next weekend, we'd still be facing several weeks downtime.
is there really, really, really nothing that can be done?
- well, i'm ready to give the source code of the site and all the content to someone who wants to continue running it. main requirement is that you absolutely need to have ruby on rails knowledge in order to run this [dukar] and need to be ready to put some time in this. i'll even be willing to give a financial headstart, so feel free spread this message and interested folks can contact me at capsized@chanarchive.org.
really sorry that it had to come to this and it doesn't feel good to throw away a project that i've worked on for so many years.
thanks go to all the volunteers, too many to list them all, who actually made it possible to run this site.
thank you all for an amazing time.
In similarly lame news, I must now go outside every weekend and leave my room for most of the afternoon (i.e. when I'm not sleeping/at school) to "build up social skills"

I saw Wreck-It Ralph and I loved it. Yet it gave me angst and I've been feeling really sad today.
Also bothering me recently, it was my second day at work and this coworker got mad at me because I accidentally clicked the wrong thing on the register and wasn't able to undo the action, and he didn't like how I asked him for help after messing it up. Why would I ask him for help before accidentally doing something incorrectly?? He later admitted he was having a long week and apologized for his harsh tone earlier, but I still don't feel comfortable asking him questions. I'm still new and feeling vulnerable in this new environment, and I don't want to face his impatience or frustration, which seems to arise whenever I need help learning something new.
All of this snow and cold weather is making me miss Southern California.
I come back and this thread hasn't been posted in in 3 weeks?My god man. I've heard about you, but I've never seen you.
Come on guys step up the ANGST
EDIT: Also reading the first few pages of this thread I want a time machine so I can go back to April of 2006 and smack myself as hard as I can
Here's a *hug* for you, man. That's rough. You can complain at me if you feel like.
That's like a rite of passage.No, it's a sign of someone being a terrible person.
Pre-post edit: I just realized this wasn't the "Relationdukars" topic; I thought it was for a second.
I broke up with my girlfriend two days ago. She was pretty much my first love, so needless to say I've been extremely depressed.
I also hate dystopian books in general
It's people like you who are actively ensuring the future will be a dystopia.Just obey the government and it'll be fine.
It's people like you who are actively ensuring the future will be a dystopia.I dunno, he's kind of got a point, dark tones and cynical futures have been very present in more than one medium since the 90s or so. Watchmen kind of inaugurated them and as good as that was, most of its spawn does not deserve to be put on the same pedestal.

Particularly, the problem with The Hunger Games is, I think, that Ms. Collins just kind of ran out of steam after executing the initial premise; the sequels - especially the latter one - just feel very meandery and overstuffed with political overthinking. The kind that comes off as a juvenile but failed attempt to be deep. The franchise is entertaining in its own way and I'll certainly be in line to see the next film but overall I'd say there are better sources of meaning out there in fiction.
The main problem I have with dystopia books is that now they use them as a portal for a cheap romance. It's like mixing apples and oranges.That's a different problem altogether. I can see the literary and financial reasons they are doing it, but still don't care for most of the results.
Watchmen did not inaugurate dystopian fiction. Brave New World came out in 1931. Fritz Lang's Metropolis was 1927. Something called Rasselas apparently came out in 1759.

I fail to see how the context called for that post.A dystopian society led by image macros?

TEM made the image, somebody else found the image and added text, turning it into Advice Dog.
nothing feels better than being able to admit you can enjoy your own companyWhat do you mean by "enjoying your own company"?
Oh, holy christ. Physics already makes me want to shoot myself, I have no idea what I am doing. My god.
Go native. Eat the flies.And drink your own pee.

I want a news organization that goes deep, does research, and makes connections that wouldn't be noticed by social media.
I remember hearing the word from one of my high school teachers (way back in the 80's) discussing other terms like beatniks.Luigison was calling people hipsters before doing things before they were cool was cool.
Was his name Chad?
Out all cheaters, ever.
Reminder that this year marks one decade since we last has a good Paper Mario game.
I already know you don't have a soul so no one should be surprised that you don't like Super Paper Mario.
Super Paper Mario is kind of a slog to play through. It has funny parts, but most of the story is something out of a bad fanfic.

Not to mention, the characters are all so two-dimensional.http://youtu.be/LekUKeFijxc
It's been two god[darn] years since I've been in an actual relationship.
