  1. Yes, but if someone calls something a duck, well sir, I expect it to waddle and quack
  2. <grumble> I like the book and I dislike very much that a movie that has litle to do with the plot bears to same name. I know it's stupid and petty to base my decision for not watching the film on this, but that's how I feel. Meh.
  3. I concur. Go be manly and do shit with a axe that will result in a house full of shelves. You know...I'm thinking of forgoing a new laptop next year and seeing about a PS4. The 360 has my heart but I'm wondering if I should change it up. And the price is still a sticking point. I realy don't care about the Kinect. (I'm trying not to hijack this thread)
  4. When he actually looks at me and says something to indicate that he notices we aren't actually living in a very large cardboard box, he can call it his living room. I've never seen him focus on anything that wasn't media: comics, games, movies.
  5. Personally, I don't care that much about my blog. It was just something to do when I had free time. I could conceivably start a new thread and do the same thing. Everything looks good though! Wo0t!
  6. I swear to god that wasn't there when I started posting! In my defense, I was at work so it took me almost an hour to write mine. I actually had to work. <grumble> So anyways, huzzah! I'm glad they actually listened to the consumers. Its so awesome! But now I have choices and am paralyzed with indecision. Guess I'll leave it to Ryan.
  7. 1) If the Skyrim map is framed you can hang it anywhere you want. Maps are cool. Otherwise, I don't want my house to look like I live in a fucking dorm. That being said, I did let him hang two velvet matador paintings in my living room. 2)The more I hear about this system the angrier I get. Then I realize that I won't be able to play video games again for another year or two and then I still have to catch up on the shit I never had time to play during what I have come to call The Lull and I don't feel so bad. And then I think about it even more and I get mad again. WHY THE FUCK DOES IT NEED TO BE CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET? WHY ARE YOU FORCING ME TO DO SOMETHING POINTLESS? IT'S NOT A MM GAME WITH A DEDICATED SERVER THAT STORES ALL MY SHIT AND A MASSIVE WORLD SO TELL ME WHY! I think I will likely buy a PS4 if we can ever afford a new system. He can play that and I will finish Dragon Age.
  8. That wasn't a dick joke. That, was a masturbation joke and it was funny because it was ridiculous. Also because they did it with a straight face. Just the absurdity of it...and the hand gestures. Be glad I laughed and not hurled. The thought of cum makes me a little nausesous.
  9. Hmm...I like all of those things separately. I don't know that I would like the combination, but as I am intrigued, I would at least try it.
  10. I enjoyed the hell out of This is the End and definitely too many dick jokes. Why are most comedies with a mostly male cast filled with dick jokes and scatological humor? Do men really think that stuff is funny? Ergh. I did find it odd that there wasn't any reference to Christian beliefs vs. Jewish beliefs. I mean, obviously this movie isn't the place to have a deep philosophical discussion, but I kept expecting at least a passing reference.
  11. There's a link on the home page. 'Tipping is not a city in China'. Unless Nick doesn't want anyone to contribute through paypal any longer.
  12. I loved that movie. It was a rom com that didn't make me want to hurl
  13. Money is sent. Don't spend it all on booze and whores, either, goddamn it!
  14. Meh. Fuck skins. I don't care how it looks, I care about what's in it. I mean...ya'll all saw the Knoll right? And you've seen pictures of my husband? Just sayin'. Keep the posts.
  15. I actually do feel for Walt...my uncle is a brilliant man who reminds me a great deal of Walt. He's a microbiologist/chemist with two degrees and the man is selling vacuum cleaners because he can't get a job. Could he make meth? Sure could! Though, his speciality is food stuffs. Think non-nutritive food coating. Point though: I feel for Walt. What this is is a more in depth Scarface. We have a relatively mild-mannered individual that because of desperate circumstances becomes someone we should hate, but instead our heart tends to go out to him because we have witnessed it all. I agree. She should have given him the ultimatum some much sooner. Also...what wife wouldn't? I found it strange that it went on as long as it did. I really don't know any woman/wife/girlfriend that would deal with evasiveness for long. Bitches be nosey. And the cheating...ergh...that was sadly a very vindictive, believable thing that did not endear her. She had so many more weapons at her disposal.
  16. 12,268 That's my highest yet. Prolly not saying much, but I'm proud of myself because I finally got it through my thick skull that palm trees can exist outside of Florida. In this case, couple them with very 1930-esque small town buildings and red dirt and you get Cucamilla or whatevs Australia. I also fel very idiotic because I tried to advance forward to read the license plate on a car that was on the road. But no matter how many times I clicked, the care stayed equidistant from the camera. Then I finally had my 'duh' moment and realized the car was in motion as was the Google Cam car. I will take my idiocy elsewhere now.

I have an American/Western hemisphere bias. I mean...I think palm trees, I think the Caribbean not North Africa...
  18. Those shelves are beautiful. Admittedly, I have no idea what all the technical mumbo jumbo means cause I'm just a plug n play type, but even I must concede the setup is pretty sweet. Also, everyone deserves a space of their own. Get your gamer cave on when you have room. Anything that you've put this much time, effort, and monies into deserves a shrine. But don't tell Ryan I said that or he'll want his own movie theater...
  19. Eh? How do you figure? Confrontation is confrontation, I thought.
  20. I find it interesting that Ireland scores high on the humane scale, meaning they tend to avoid confrontation, yet every Irish American I've met (myself included) is belligerent enough to argue with a brick wall. Did you send all your grumpy fuckers over here during the Blight?
  21. I didn't neg it, but 3D is dumb. However, this movie was not. I said in another post, I thought Marcus was an awful villian. He was just such a matter of fact jerk that the motivations they gave him didn't seem heartfelt. I found him irritating. Cumberbatch did not get a chance to shine as much as he could have. Ugh...not enough drama! But good action scenes. Nicely shot and the Kilngons looked awesome. Do you think this opens up the possibility for a series? It seems almost to point that way.
  22. Saw Stark Trek. Pretty impressive. The Marcus charactter irritated me. He was such an unabashedly villianous character that I just found him irritating and his 'motivations' seemed irrelevant. Otherwise, I enjoyed it. Gotta say, there is some bromance going on. It might seem a little 'gay' seeing as how this is only the second movie and so little time had elapsed between the first. There just doesn't seem to be as much time to form that kind of attachment without it seeming over the top or romantic. However, in the original incarnation after thirty plus years, that kind of deep abiding affection between Spock and Kirk is understandable, and I believe this is what they were basing the relationship from Into Darkness on.
  23. Ok, hold on...is this the metaphorical death of Hondo's as we see it or is everyone just kinda shrugging and saying 'fuck it', cause no one wants to update? Cause uh...I can appreciate the principle behind the former while the latter just seems...silly. I mean, no one likes upgrades. It's like moving. You know its supposed to be nicer, but goddamn you gotta get all your shit settled again. But upgrades, like moving are sometimes necessary.
  24. Oh yeah, and in a lot of countries milk and eggs aren't refrigerated
