    what do YOU get when you mix red and blue

    What's this ROY G BIV thing? I've never heard that before in my life.

    Do you play an instrument?

    I can play guitar, piano and harmonica, all quite badly. But I'm a pretty good bagpiper, if I may say so myself.

    Best Year in Movies

    And I have to say, aside from Lost In Translation, Big Fish, City Of God and Return Of The King, 2003 was one of the more disappointing years in cinema.

    Best Year in Movies

    dude, come on. the 60s-70s had jean-luc godard, orson welles, kurosawa, luis bunuel, francois truffaut, the beatles, 'mary poppins', 'the graduate', 'bonnie & clyde', martin scorsese, francis ford coppola, and roman polanski. Well, I did say arguably. Of course, you happen to give a good argument. Would the claim of 60's-00's being the greatest 4 decade period in film satisfy both of our arguments. Also I don't know what I was thinking, saying it got weak in late 90's. I think I meant to say the last few years. The 60s-00s being the best four decade period? That's a silly statement, who here has seen enough from any other four decades of film to verify such a thing? Yes, I agree it's the best four decades, but that's due partially to ignorance of the previous four decades and the fact that after that there aren't any major four decades to compare with. Best year ever is 1939: Mr. Smith Goes To Washington The Wizard Of Oz Gone With The Wind Stagecoach Of Mice And Men The Four Feathers Goodbye, Mr. Chips The Hunchback Of Notre Dame.

    Seniors

    When's your graduation?: September 24th. Are you going to your prom?: Yes. What are you doing afterwords/that weekend?: Going to an afterparty, that's probably it. Apply for a job if I haven't done so before then. When's your prom?: November 25th, I think. Got a limo?: Not yet, don't know if I will or not. A tux/dress?: I still don't know what to wear. In my earlier prom I went dressed like John Lennon circa 1963, so I was thinking of maybe wearing some Sgt. Pepper's outfit. I dunno. A date?: No, we don't really do that here. What college are you going to next year?: University of Technology Sydney, I hope. What's your major?: Again, I hope, Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Media Arts & Production). Are you commuting or staying on campus?: Commute. If not college, what are you going to do?: I'm also considering having a year off, travel around the world, try out for Big Brother or something stupid like that. Did you get any awards/scholarships?: No. Not yet, at least.

    TSM Movie Tournament Round Four

    By this point I am near ceasing to care. The Shawshank Redemption and Raiders Of The Lost Ark should not be gone. We're going to be left with a final of two films which are nobody's favourite. Pulp Fiction Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back Back to the Future Terminator 2: Judgment Day

    I shook Bill Clinton's hand...

    "Oh, I hope you've washed your fucking hand since." Exactly what I was going to say. Doc, what kind of event was this anyway? Don't you ever sleep/go to school etc? You're on here almost every hour of the day. I find this mildly disconcerting.

    TSM TV Show Tournament

    Seinfeld - Come on, The Simpsons was only good for half of its time on television, and even at its best it can't match Seinfeld at its peak. South Park Wonder Years Buffy - Bastard! For making me vote against Cheers. Angel Saved By The Bell That 70s Show v. Curb Your Enthusiasm - Don't care. 24

    Obviously this shows just how crazy all Christians are and why we should just wipe them all out. Or something.

    The 2004 State of Origin

    Australian soccer is only improving. If the media actually cared about it Australia could become a great soccer country. If you look at each individual member of that team one could argue that it's deserving of being in the FIFA Top Ten. Almost every time we put out our best team we win. Nobody cares about racing (of the people I know), sorry mate. But yeah, I would think the Melbourne Cup rates better than the State of Origin. And that game was boring as batshit. Sorry.

    TSM Banned Poster Tournament

    Bah! Nunzio Cardozo rules all. That's a vote for him, by the way, in case you didn't realise.

    TSM Movie Tournament Third Round

    You think that's bad? Behold as the film with the greatest scene in movie history goes down to that very same movie. I like Kill Bill. Quite a lot. But it's not in the eight best movies ever, especially ahead of Schindler's List and Psycho.

    Best sappy/romantic "oldies" songs?

    Bah. Real romanticism: Paul McCartney - Maybe I'm Amazed The Beatles - Something Elvis - Can't Help Falling In Love Beach Boys - God Only Knows And Love Hurts is *not* appropriate. At all. Unless you're playing the Roy Orbison version, because The Big O will make anyone go putty in your hands.

    TSM Movie Tournament Third Round

    Raiders of the Lost Ark Terminator 2: Judgment Day Psycho (1960) Goodfellas - The two most overrated films in the tournament collide! I voted Goodfellas, but I really don't care. Taxi Driver The Shawshank Redemption Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back The Usual Suspects

    The Day After Tomorrow...

    Bah, Airplane is the greatest disaster movie ever, everyone knows it.

    Why you should never...

    Well, let's look in the Haterz section. The hate mail: And the response: The fact that so many people are so offended at these three and abusive is a testament to the stupidity of people everywhere, and of the awesomeness of these three guys.

    Why you should never...

    That's an awesome joke, actually. And as for on the arm, here's his quote from that page: Nah bitch, as you can see in on dis page, that tattoo is fake. I ain't ole enough to get a real one, but no doubt, in a few years FLAME will be branded on my arm or some shit.

    Best Member of RAW Right Now?

    Batista and Flair are 5 and 6 but Jericho is 9?!?!?!?!?! C'mon now. Don't get me wrong, I like Jericho more than Batista and Flair. I just think that before WM though and his feud with Christian he wasn't feeling it, whereas I really like Batista and Flair as a tag team and think they are both really benefiting from being in that stable. EDIT: After being here for over three years, I wasted my 1000th post (well, it's probably more like 1600th, but whatever) on that. I had this massive celebration planned for myself, and look what came about instead. Damn you Rrrsh!!!

    Best Member of RAW Right Now?

    1. Chris Benoit 2. Shawn Michaels 3. Randy Orton (HA!) 4. Triple H 5. Batista (like him or not, he's really improving and is the best "monster" guy they have right now) 6. Flair (as a tag team wrestler only, single shows how washed up he is right now) 7. Shelton Benjamin 8. Edge 9. Jericho 10. Christian Those last four are in it though they haven't done much ****+ recently, but they have the potential, so I'll give them that.

    Holy crap I wanna beat the crap outta those 3 already. Damn...they just make you want to beat the crap out of them. They should show this picture to boxers before a bout. Actually, if you look at it, that's the most awesome site I've ever seen.
