    Denny's in trouble

    Waffle House is the shit. I hate IHOP. Everything meal they have has pancakes. That's, of course logical, but I don't like pancakes. Waffle House doesn't have waffles with every meal.

    The Slowly-Dying Death of RPG's.

    III was developed by a completely different team, right? Phantasy Star IV is a wonderful game. I would definitely wait for an update of II. It's just too frustrating to play nowadays. Warsong! Strat RPG. Difficult, and excellent. I'd say it's better than the recent GBA Fire Emblem.

    2 top 100 Video Game Lists

    *Sigh* I know I'm going to catch hell for not including Zelda 64 on my list, but I never got to play it. One of the few 'essential' games I've missed. I've got my 30, now I'm ordering them. It's gonn be a weird list.

    FF7 is far better than Grandia, and better than the Lunars. EDIT: And Xenogears. (Xenogears coulda been a contender, but blew it BAD)

    Denny's in trouble

    ^ What he said. Do you knowhow many rude and stupid motherfuckers I've dealt with at fast-food places and greasy spoons? The reason many of these people are working there is they're too stupid or antisocial to get a decent job. It would be different if it was a safety violation and the Denny's burned down, but unless these SPECIFIC guys had SPECIFIC complaints about them, and they did nothing about it should THAT SPECIFIC store be punished, with a fine and perhaps firing of the manager. When you hire someone, you can't know how they're going to behave at a job. And I haven't to this day seen an insult that's worth that much money. Certain cases of libel and slander sure, but that's way different.

    Best city in the world right now for music?

    I won't say it's the best, but Seattle has an excellent music scene. Maktub, U.S.E., Schoolyard Heroes, and I'll go ahead and say the Postal Service, since I think the only live shows they've played are here. (singer's local)

    One and Only Star Wars Geekiness Thread

    I think the Empire fight is the best in the series. The ROTJ fight is really good too, though, and the obvious highlight of that movie.

    Also in no way is the dominance of systems with good RPG's a conincedence. FF and DQ are HUGE system-sellers in Japan, and all developers will gravitate towards the systems with the biggest installed base. Look at the DC. It did well here, but did very poorly in Japan due to the lack of quality RPGs. N64 did poorly in Japan too, and many developers moved to the system with the big installed base (and the freedom of CD games.)

    The Slowly-Dying Death of RPG's.

    Four Swords is vastly better if you have the money to blow on 4 GBA's and link cables. FF:CC is garbage. Don't forget Warsong (Langrisser) for the Genesis. That's game's the shit. (strat RPG)

    Denny's in trouble

    But Denny's at large can't really be held responsible for the actions of one asshole employee, not to the tune of millions of millions of dollars. And it's not a fine. I'd be more positive about this (but not very much) if Denny's was fined and the money went to charity or something. It's not, these people are greedy little fucks who just don't ever want to work again. Because someone said a mean thing. And it doesn't do anything to the company. They're just going to make the rest of the customers pay.

    Mega Man 2 & 3 are still REALLY fun. I bougth the anthology and played them recently. The controls were SO much better than 'classics' like Castlevania, Double Dragon, Ghosts and Goblins.

    Bling It On: a trap to catch stupid people

    I blinged my teeth and now my lips hurt.

    Denny's in trouble

    While that's really shitty, $4 mil a piece? Can we pass some fucking tort reform please? If some asshole called me a stupid mic pollock, I'd feel entitled to about $100 and a kick in the nuts. Jesus Christ. Some guy called me a bad name so I never have to work again for the rest of my life! I'm starting to hate this country.

    The Slowly-Dying Death of RPG's.

    Aeris's death is SO well done, that it got me misty even though I couldn't give two shits about the character. The music is BEAUTIFUL. And I even knew it was coming! Some magazine had a preview disc for FFVII, well before the demo disks were out. It had the Aeris death in full. I wanted to throw the fuck up. No big spoiler warnings or anything. Fucking bastards.

    Milky's Thought For the Day

    I gave myself a haircut on acid once. It looked fine.

    The Slowly-Dying Death of RPG's.

    Tifa and Yuffie were far better characters than Aeris. I think Tifa was actually a particularly great charactar: shy, yet she kicked the crap out of everyone. Too bad during the cutscenes they made the most ridiculous female figure ever.

    The Current Events folder. It's a lot like Hitler.

    She's supposedly a lovely person in person, which leads me to believe she's just a very smart lady who knows there's an enormous, lucrative market in ultraconservative talk now. If you've ever seen her even mildly debated, you know she can in no way back up her claims, and makes weak efforts to even appear outraged. Sometimes she even seems hard pressed to take responsibility for her own quotes. She's a conservative Howard Stern. Nothing more, nothing less. Limbaugh's the same, honestly. The guy's smart, and a good radio personality, but he's phony as fuck, and doesn't appear to be too politically passionate if you look at his voter registration. Just a smart guy that tapped a market that blew the fuck up. I just posted way to much in site feedback.

    Weird eating habits and quirks.....

    Subway's OK, but it can't compare to Quizno's, much less a local deli. I get on my sub: lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, cuke, pepperocini, jalapenos, carrots, spinach, salt & pepper, vinegar. No meat, because Subway's meat is pretty subpar. If anything i'd probably go get some Carl Buddig to put on that shit. Carl Buddig and Land O' Lakes are my favourite reconstituted meat products. Mmmmm.

    Ever thought a burrito could be a weapon?

    Was the burrito delicious? I NEED CLOSURE.

    More of those Bratz

    Duh, that's not an upside-down star Crono, it's just been rotated 36 degrees.
  22. Happens all the time. my dad's 5"8, my Mom's 5"9, none of the grandparents were very tall, I'm 6'4, my brother's 6'2 and will probably be 6'6 by the time he's done.

    Weird eating habits and quirks.....

    I don't think many people at all like swallowing big gobs of fat, but what's the big deal about cutting it off and leaving it on the plate? If you like your steak charred to a crisp, I posit that you probably just don't like steak. A lot of you are big pussies.

    Favourite guilty pleasure songs

    Come on, you KNOW there's songs you hate to love. Songs that are so good they're bad. Rock me like a Hurricane Final Countdown (mostly due to GOB)

    The Political Compass

    C-Bacon's poll has some pretty loaded question I was like 65% social liberal, 25% economoic liberal. You are best described as a: Democrat. You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness. Then I did the same thing, only answering as totalitarian as possible, and got 10% social conservative, 65% economic conservative and got: You are best described as a: Fascist You exhibit a very well-developed sense of Right and Wrong and believe in economic fairness. You heard it here first: (or for the thousandth time) democrats are fascists.
