Thoth

“Ha! Ha ha ha! You sure got her good!” Kibagami hops around like a one-legged frog on PCP. Angel Dust. A frog that likes to get wet. But Kibagami is one frog who stays dry. Whether intentionally or not, anyway. That is to say Nathaniel Kibagami does not take PCP. Anymore. And Thoth did indeed got her good, “her” being Taiga Star, and the “got” being her injuries that could really use medical attention, that Thoth is pretty sure she won't take time off for. Her head is probably too hard for that, just like it was during the match. The match that he lost. God-fricking-dammit, HOW did that happen? Then he feels the fin of his compatriot on his back. Frogs have fins, right? Or what, are those feet? They have webbing in them, in between the toes. That's like a fin, right? Well, what do you call it then? He lost it for Thoth: Nathaniel Kibagami. And he's pretty sure Kibs doesn't even knows it. Judging from the way he acted, Thoth didn't lose the match. As far as Nathaniel Kibagami was concerned, on the moment in question... it was Tuesday. The match happened on a Sunday, by the way. Something had to be done. *** The Clan has long been dissolved, but Thoth maintains the network that he retained as the leader of that dark and arcane group. He calls up his most trusted doctor. “This is Helzig.” “It's me,” says Thoth. “Ugh... christ. What?” “I don't know if you are aware, but I lost my last match.” “I'm crying, Thoth, really, I am. I'm your doctor, not your bitch. Speaking of, why don't you go cry on his shoulder?” “That's the problem, doc. He dropped the ball.” A loud sigh through the speaker of the phone is distorted somewhat by static. “What do you expect? He really can't compete in that condition.” “I know, doc, I...” Now it is Thoth's turn to sigh. “I know. Which is why I was hoping-” “Stop,” orders Doctor Helzig. Though his German accent might almost be gone, there is a hint of his blood in his harsh command. “I know what you are going to ask. You are going to ask if I can reduce the concentration of the medication. Short answer: No.” There is a pause where Doctor Helzig expects Thoth to make some kind of reply. None comes, so he continues: “Long answer: I think you know the risks and rewards of taking such action, and you and I both know that you're not ready for that yet.” Another pause. No response. “Is there anything else?” “No, Doctor Helzig.” The good doctor ends the call. Thoth sits down onto a hard wooden bench right outside the showers. He really just took it there. A long time ago, Thoth would have been cruel and ruthless, ordering the doctor to just do what he fucking told him, or he could expect to not have an office within the week. But he let the doctor end the call, and he sat back down. He took it. Just like he took his loss to Taiga Star. Let's flash back to six months ago. Maybe you remember this: The TV is still going. It's still the SWF. Stars Thoth recognizes, stars he has not seen before. It's the only thing that can reasonably hold his attention, outside of the woman in his bed. Something comes on the screen. Something that has his attention. "Who... who is that?" He sits up, and scoots closer to the edge of the bed. "My god, I- I- Oh man. This, this is... oh man." "What, what is it?" asks the woman. "I... I have to go." He throws on his pants, and leaves his shirt unbuttoned. --- There are a number of thoughts swirling through Thoth's mind as he leaves his house, and walks headlong into a gust. As it passes, two thoughts settle above others. "I need to meet this person, the one I just saw on the TV. In the ring." That person. Taiga Star. It was compelling. There hadn't been a soul like that inside the wrestling ring in years. Maybe Annie Eclectic. But Thoth had turned Annie some time ago, and had at least broken her spirit to the point that Thoth could relax and get some breathing room. Or was that her sister? That was about as confusing as the time Nathaniel Kibagami thought it would be a good idea to make John Kruger think he had cancer. He never had cancer; his arm worked just fine. But the radio in his skull made him believe he was fucked up and would never wrestle again. It was an experimental idea, a new concept in dominance and subjugation. Nothing like it was ever attempted again, due to the complexity of such an operation. A crazy idea then. With his head gazing at the floor, he offers a chuckle. Now he has another crazy idea, only so he can face Taiga Star in the ring. And crush her. Guess Take 1 didn't go so well. At least Thoth left her something to remember. Well, one crazy idea deserves another. The phone is still in Thoth's hand. He flips it open and starts dialing.

If I'm not mistaken, in some places, the price on the Microsoft Wireless Internet Adapter has actually dropped. Official price is still a benjamin, but it SHOULD be cheaper, with n as a standard now, and g being the budget option. If Microsoft wants to brag that they support 802.11a then they are morons.

The cutoff date has now come. Secret Santa will consist of me and Smues giving gifts to each other. ...if we feel like it.

Drank soda through my nose in order to see how that would work. Saw the movie Bean where he shaves his tongue with an electric razor, so I tried that too.

Yes, but he may have been held back for Pack #2 originally. Edit: Or not, who the hell knows anymore. Super Crazy ain't in it, the end.

One of these things is not like the others, One of these things just doesn't fit...

I assume you're missing 2002, 2003, and Neowave. You can get 02/03 for PS2, but Neowave was Xbox exclusive. I have many memories of Neowave, which had a fun little community for several months.

This sounds like XP Antispyware 2009 on crack. So let's go with that. Do a search for XP Antispyware 2009, and look at the methods for treating it. There should be some similarities to the way both of these are treated. I would tell you myself the methods, but they are very very complex and I don't fully understand them. Anyway, you should also find some places to post where people can help you. Warning: Because they are complex, you run a very real risk of fucking up your shit. If you are capable of backing anything up, do so, though be warned you may be backing up the Trojan.

Haas was always in the cards. Yes, but originally Super Crazy was going to be in Pack #1.

I will bet it will be the same content, just to come out on different days.

Update: wwe.com says "Coming soon" for the DLC. I guess this is a plus, swapping Super Crazy for Charlie Haas.

WWE Smackdown vs Raw 09 doesn't even show up as a game under the xbox.com Marketplace.

This is a double post.

Low for both versions.

Smackdown 09 is my first Smackdown since 06, and I like it, but the online play is laggy. Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead are great, but being a PC snob, I think they're better on the PC. If your PC is not up to snuff, the 360 versions are still great experiences. Edit: I've played Left 4 Dead on both platforms, and I believe even more than ever the PC version is better.

Addendum: The password for #1 is 'refinery'.

Resident Evil 5 Viral Site

My bad, too. I keep forgetting/putting off playing Ultimate Alliance. Hey Niner, why didn't you just get it repaired by Microsoft? If it was 3 red rings, it was most likely under warranty (3 years for that issue)

To be changed in a patch down the road, as announced with the detailing of the DLC yesterday.

You're better off firing a Jab DP. It gives you the offensive, plus a mental edge.

Tried playing with Scroby last night. Internet did not want that to happen too much. BTW Scroby, the first thing you when you play Ryu is jump back and throw fireballs. Most of the characters I play, if I see this coming, can take advantage of this.

That seems to be the consensus on the Forumwarz discussion boards.

I have been playing Forumwarz for several months now, and I thought I'd link it here because I'm sure at least one of you would enjoy it. It's an RPG you play in a browser without any need for any downloads. I love the hell outta this game. If any of you decide to play, we could form a Klan or something.

Sheet. I just reorganized my stats with haxlrose and with my various equipment I'm now level 26 with 810 ego, 87 offense, 81 defense, and 300 processing power. You might want to redo your stats and just throw everything into offense and defense. I can't imagine you'd be hurting too much for money so upkeep and frugality can be kept low. Just for shits and giggles, I'm currently using: Book: "What Do You Call a Democrat at the Bottom of the Ocean?" (+8 offense, defense, and luck) Computers: PrunServ (+50 ego) Document files: "Thesis – Gun Control Legislation in Cambodia (April ‘04 Revision).sdoc" (+5 offense, charisma, luck & 105 ego) Glasses: Christian Diwhore™ Lennonparty (+22 CHA, +10 OFF, +14 DEF and +500 sexiness [which I don't use]) Hardware: Beast0r High-Speed Cables X3 (+15 OFF and DEF, +10 Luck each) & WETGEAR TA683V (+100 proc. power) Music: "07 – REKTÄL DISCHÄRGE – FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AND ALL THAT IS HOLY, MY ANUS IS BLEEDING." (+2 OFF, DEF, CHA, Luck) Picture files: "zomg im so fat.xpeg" (+1 OFF, DEF, FRU, CHA, +25 ego) Program files: "KeyLogger 5000.prog" (+2 OFF and Luck, +35 Ego and proc. power) Special Items: "Fr4gGingR1teZ 2020 Dickblaster™ Premier Xtreem™ Edition" (+20 Ego) Surgical Procedure: "Prosthetic Finger Implant" (+100 proc. power) Video File: "top 10 movie hacks.dvda" (+3 OFF, FRU, CHA, +35 proc. power) For you hackers out there, I pretty much kick the shit out of anything a level above me with ease. Thinking about trying 2 levels one of these days. I know I can't use the sexiness on the glasses, but the stat boosts made it worth it (over 400k). I do have a question: What are job points for? I just got the E-Peen for 180 job points, but is there any other point to them? Job points ain't nothing except that. Also, I have all my points into offense and defense as it is.

There's a new Level 35 forum called Cosplay Centeral. I have Defense and Offense around 100, Ego 640, and I'm level 34, so I thought I'd give it a try. It fucking hits for 350 damage. The other hard forums were also made much harder (although they give more cred). But that forum fucking two-shotted me on the first thread.
