The Metal Maniac

You just suck. Use Boomerang Cutter, foo' - he's amazingly easy. And I've always found the originals to be more difficult. Some of those Wiley castles were obscene; especially that one where you start with two weapon energy capsules, yet you're better off not taking them, trying to fight the boss once, losing, then taking them when you come back. Course, I did find them easier then I recalled when playing them on the AC.

I was raised Roman Catholic, and I still believe many of the things the Church teaches, however, I have problems with certain other important things (transubstantiation, confession, and a few others) so I wouldn't consider myself a very good catholic.

Leslie Neilsen, trying to track down the Undertaker. I can only remember one...he had blonde hair.

Man, her face is like, her best feature. Fucking gorgeous.

Was it ten years? I feel old. This thread stopped making sense.

Alanis Morisette is obscure now? Yeah, I know I spelled that wrong, but I don't care.

The one thing that bugged me about the bidding: I never watch TPIR anymore, but I do recall once seeing some stoner get on the show. For every single item, he bid $420. No matter what it was, just $420, because it's funny. And then some bitch who didn't get the joke bid $421, and won. Whore. I wanted to see that guy randomly guess $420 on everything.

Because it'd be easier for everyone if the hornets just stayed in the hive. Don't wanna get stung while you're swatting at them. I really don't think the survivors are that much of a risk to the Others, numbers or otherwise. The Others were following Jack and Locke and them for how long before they revealed themselves? Their advantage is not in their numbers or their weapons, but the fact that the island is their home turf; they apparantly understand how to hide on it better then anyone, and no matter how many guns or people you have, you can't win a war against people you can't even find. And besides, those weren't negotiations; it was more "stay the fuck outta here or we'll fucking kill you". That's not negotiations, that's demands.

I don't think that's a fair conclusion to reach. Could be that the Others just don't like the fact that the survivors are going wherever they please on the island. Perhaps the others could easily eliminate the survivors, but decided to at least warn them that shit is gonna hit the fan if they keep messing around, rather then going through the time, effort, and risk of killing them all. But yeah, awesome episode. It's gonna be really interesting to see not only who wants guns, but who is able to get guns.

I think it was implied when you called the guy a troll essentially for posting something that was of a different opinion. I mean, hell, he even did it in the way the thread was designed; did you really think a thread like that wasn't gonna have responses just like that in it? I mean, he may very well be a troll, but it's kinda silly to call him out on it just for that. That wasn't what your post said when I posted this. It was more like "When did I ever say this" (in reference to the troll thing). Trying to make me look foolish by editing...bosh, and flimflah. You know, the ability to edit posts without having anything say posts have been edited still kinda cheeses me off.

Nah man, it only takes one Torontonian to screw in a lightbulb. They just hold the bulb in the socket, and wait for the world to revolve around them.

Porter already said what I was gonna, but assuming they did wanna have Edge/Cena at the RR and at WM, they could've had a big schmoz ending for the RR match (hopefully with Edge breaking the belt over Cena's head; tell me that wouldn't be a sweet visual) which led to Cena demanding a rematch, but Vince is all like, "To get a rematch, you need to beat these people" and then Cena beats those people and they have their re-match. Which is basically what they're doing anyway, with HHH about to win a tourney to get the title shot, except that you'd actually have a backstory and a feud in there, not just "rrrr I'm HHH I'm Jesus rrrr".

I did that quite a lot myself.

Because it would've been impossible for them to book Edge/Cena in the main, even though they actually have a backstory and all that jazz.

Probably, but the point I was trying to make is that we're not totally audibly indistinguishable. Sometimes you can tell whether a person is American or Canadian just by their accent. Sure, sometimes you can't, but still.

I've never put a Canadian flag on anything I own. Besides, I *know* I have a thick accent. You know how, with accents, people who live in the same area you do aren't supposed to be able to tell? Like, to a British person everyone else has accents, and not them? I've had people who live less then half an hour away from me tell me I have an accent.

I wouldn't say audibly indistinguishable, at least not in all cases. I mean, seriously, anyone who can't tell the difference between a Newf and someone from Texas just by hearing them speak is probably deaf. I know that's an extreme case, but still; it's not like we all sound exactly the same.

Says the guy who works for LESS then that. I still wanna know how it's possible that in Canada, they're paid at least minimum wage, and yet it's somehow mathmatically impossible to do the same thing in the states. And for the record, I do tip normally, though I don't tip much; I just think it's silly that it's expected of me to do so.

Chezch: Though I agree, mostly, with what you said about Rey winning the longevity record, I just had to point out that Flair's record was broken the year after he set it, by Bob Backlund, who held it until Benoit broke it.

Dammit, that's what I was gonna say. Besides, who said you guys were worth $8 an hour? I said minimum wage. Also, I'm looking at a bunch of rules concerning minimum wage laws in Canada, and it appears to me that servers here *do* make minimum wage. And, lo and behold, resturants stay in business. Perhaps your employers are just bad businessmen.

1. A box with a TV in it > a box. About a hundred pounds greater on average, but that's beside the point. 2. That's only one part of what I do. I have various other tasks to perform. 3. I make less then 8 dollars an hour, Canadian, but that's mostly because I've had the same job for a few years and get a raise every year. 4. I have to constantly deal with working in one of the popular stores in the area, which is always understaffed and on weekends is so busy I can hardly walk around without bumping into 5 people. I also have to spend a great deal of time outside running around, whether the weather is 50 degrees, 20 degrees, whether it's pouring rain or snowing, trying to please many people. 5. The point I was trying to make is that tipping bothers me because people are expected to give tips to people serving tables, (which is the main reason you're there in the first place) yet people like me, who go out of their way to help people, aren't technically even ALLOWED to accept tips. To me, it's basically saying that your boss is too damned cheap to pay you, so *I'm* expected to do it. Fuck that. The bottom line though, as Kotz pointed out, is that you need to get a better job. Don't make minimum wage? Find a job that does pay at least that, and stop bitching.

Seriously though, the whole "I only make 3 dollars an hour, TIP ME!" argument is stupid. Just get a job where they actually have to pay you minimum wage, and stop bitching. I hate people who get tips, myself, mostly because of my job. I take an hour out of my day to help some customer get a TV off the top shelf, wait in line with them, bring it out to their car, take the TV out of the box and load it into the car myself, and they drive off. I don't even have to do all that stuff, I'm just being nice. I get nothing, 95% of the time. You carry a plate of food from one place to another and people are *expected* to give you more money because of it, even though the only friggin' reason you work there in the first place is to move that food? Fuck you.

I used to have a link to this video, but it appears to be dead. "Meat Sandwich", by GWAR. As if members of GWAR marching around holding a map upside-down wasn't funny enough, there's Oderus Ungerus in a heated basketball game with Jesus. "Wanna hand? PSYKE!!!!!!"

That mech is so useful. You almost need it if you're playing as Zero.

As someone else who didn't like Kill Bill (I wouldn't say it was the worst movie ever, I just didn't like it) I just wanted to ask this: How is it that about 5 trained assassins can't even kill a pregnant woman by shooting her IN THE HEAD? I think what bugged me most about the movie were things like that. And I *really* think they should've had some of her training in the first movie, because she does stuff that'd be improbable in the Matrix universe in the first movie. Maybe I just need to watch more Kung-Fu movies, but I never got the vibe that the movie was taking place outside the laws of physics until I saw her doing things that are physically impossible. And while I'm complaining; how is it that her legs atrophy to the point of being immobile, while her arms are still strong enough to not only drag herself around, but kill people? Was someone making her lift weights, or something?
