Special K

It looks great, and I'd love to play through it, but I don't think I'll ever have the time. I've had Atelier Iris for two months now, and I'm only 3/4 through (and it's not a long game). I never beat La Pucelle. Is DQVIII voiced? Because for once I want a PS2 RPG where I can read through cutscenes fast as hell, instead of waiting for VAs to spit out their lines. Dammit, there's a reason I don't listen to books on tape. On the plus side, I had really grave doubts about FFXII, but the demo's really fun. Combat's very fast and furious, much different from the MMORPG comparisons we've been hearing. Or you can put it on wait.

No. I agree on most everything you've said about SNL. Maybe it's just because I've never made it to the third skit of the night, and all the good ones are backloaded, but MadTV is just painful, and embarassingly unfunny. It seriously hurts to watch. All the performers are terrible, and are trying sooo hard. The show is like watching a comic bomb, except for with a studio audience who somehow thinks it's funny. In Living Color, Kids in the Hall, Upright Citizen's Brigade, Mr. Show, The Vacant Lot, Stella, The State, The Ben Stiller Show, all were far funnier than MadTV, yet it still keeps going. I think it must be extremely cheap to produce, honestly.

Hamdog hamdogggggg~! Also there's a place near me called Gordito's which serves a grande burrito. It's two of the biggest flour tortillas I've ever seen, barely overlapping, filled to the brim. The ingredients are actually fairly healthy (and delicious), grilled meat, rice, lettuce, salsa, fat-free black beans. Jalapenos if you want them. (Of course you can then smother it in melted cheese) It's just the thing is massive. They have a picture of it next to an eight-pound newborn baby in the restaurant, and it's JUST a tad bit smaller than the baby. I used to be able to house one of those things. Of course back then I rowed, was skinny, and ate like 4000+ calories a day.

This is by far the most reprehensible joke I've ever heard: Q:Why do all n*****s have nightmares? A:We killed the only one with a dream. Yeah, I heard that one in Texas.

^I did, too. I was sorely dissapointed. Trying to read Prisoners of Azkaban before I see Goblet of Fire. I need see Walk the Line. I'm glad it's doing so well. Johnny Cash is the shit. I wish one of these biopics would come out when the musician was still alive, so they could bask in the adulation a little bit. EDIT: And to reiterate something I said in another thread, if you liked 'Walk the Line' I highly reccomend the "Johnny Cash in San Quentin" concert video.

Ok. Hey, Superman looks good! I don't think you need to make Phoenix sci-fi-y. Just make it that her powers are going out of control. Basically how it was presented in the first place.

Phew. Larry Johnson and Marvin Harrison absolutely saved me from Carson and LaMont's stinkers. After game one of the Super Bowl, I am up 33 points. Not too shabby! LaMont Jordan just lost all his fantasy value unless Oakland can manage to find a decent QB over the offseason. That offense is ruined with Tui at the helm.

Well, I love the 'Hawks, and think that they were almost this good last season, they just lost the lucky games instead of won them. That being said, I recognize they have to win one, just one, playoff game before we can definitively call them the best team in their conference. I personally think they're going to the Super Bowl, barring last minute injury. Man, I wonder if the Raiders are going to start Collins next week. They won't win a single game with Tui. I shake my head every time Brandon Jacobs comes on the field. Tiki Barber was the very best RB in red-zone percentage last year. Better than Priest. Better than LJ. Better than any purported goal-line back. Tiki's such a great player, that the Giants owe so much of their success to. Pisses me off.

Mike's the only person who I've seen who tries to argue by constantly stating his own intelligence. He's also the only one I've seen state that MikeSC is SO SMART. He's also completely humorless. I think he can be smart, but if he can't win an argument, he starts pouting and dishing out lame, snooty insults like 'simpleton' and hilarious, self-agrandizing statements. 'Simpleton' is very Mike. Also implying that you have made some terrific, perfect, zinger, when all you've done is throw a giant, hilarious, crying tantrum. Ok, my bad. You ARE funny! And who can insult someone's internet usage and lack of life when they have time to post 850 goddamn times in little over a month? If all people cared about was post counts, you'd be the belle of the ball! Either way, good luck on your career. I'm incredibly impressed.

SPOILER TAGS. NOOOOOOOS

guh? Strong Bad is on point.

Fight with us! Surely Cecil. BUT AGAINST YOU! That line kills me.

Yeah, that's why the Beatles didn't change their sound too much, since it was working so well. They basically just did variations of "I Wanna Hold Your hand" for most of their career. Shit-For-Brains.

"Take a look at this." (what?) "You know what this is?" (what?) "It's a beer belly!" (what?) "A beer belly!" (what?) "A beer belly!" (what?) Those interviews were downright surreal. Joel "All the ladies at home, and here in Dayton, are watching me, and masturbatin'" Gertner!

It would be pretty funny if He-Man was naked the entire movie, and no other character commented on it. And this scene is going to be HOT Yeah. *Fap fap fap*

Would "The Brother From Another Planet" be Blaxploitation? Because that movie's awesome.

Well, that pretty much is Darwinism. Took a little bipolar right out of the gene pool. Not saying its right, and not to be glib, but that's Darwinism, my man.

^HAMMER FIGHT Although not really fights, the training scenes in 'The Fearless Hyena' are awesome. I really like the chopsticks battle, where Jackie Chan's trying to eat a dumpling. I think the fight scenes in 'Equilibrium' are fucking terrible, except the one close-quarters pistol fight.

The Simpsons did this best, and in 5 seconds. "You've been watching 'Blacula' and 'Blackenstein' (real movies). Next, the Blunch Black of Blotre Blame!"

Why did what I wrote indicate that I had a problem with Leena? I just thought all the fawning in the 'what do you look like' thread to be a bit creepy. Whether you like to admit it or not, there's a lot of e-sucking of Leena's dick. I majored in electrical engineering. There was ONE girl in EE with the rest of us math nerds. She was, surprisingly, pretty. The way the EE nerds would crowd around her, and constantly 'flirt' with her was really disconcerting, and I felt badly for her. That's what some of those Pit things remind me of. Nothing against Leena, it's all the fawning that iggs me out.

Fuck you. I wish I had a Diet Pepsi/Coke/Generic cola right now.

MadTV is embarassing to watch. They're trying SO FUCKING HARD, yet there's not a laugh to be had. I've gone to a local improv show a couple of times, it was really fun. Any sketch at my corny Seattle improv is funnier than a MadTV sketch

That picture reminds me of the ZZ Top concert I went to. It sucked. Now, I like the songs, but they have it down to such a science that every song sounded EXACTLY like the radio version. Which would have been not much fun. Good thing I was fucked up. The best part is, at like 3 times during the concert, during a solo, one guy would come up and do that knock-your-knees-together-faux-Charleston-ZZtop dance. Only in slow motion, because, you know, old. It looked positively pornographic. Ted Nugent was the shit though. And when you go to the Gorge, concerts are secondary.
