Ouch. Now THAT sucks.

Carnival, that's maybe the stupidest thing I've seen said on this board all month.

I cared about Aeris's death for a variety of reasons. First of all, that was the first time I'd ever seen a main player character get killed off in an RPG (no, General Leo doesn't count). Secondly, it came out of nowhere; you weren't expecting it at all. Thirdly, the manner in which it happened was pretty brutal; if they'd added a giant splash of blood, it could've been something right out of a samurai movie. And finally, the absolutely gorgeous cutscene of Cloud dropping her body into the water just about made me cry.

I just don't think that "global warming" is anything that we really have to worry that much about. This study said that the Worst Case Scenario would be an overall global temperature increase of ten degrees Farenheit over the next hundred years. Ten fucking degrees is the worst that could possibly happen. That's much, much less of a temperature difference than, say, the last ice age brought on. I think it's just a cyclical thing. After all, with something as complex as an entire planet's weather systems, you wouldn't really expect it to stay rock-steady at the same numbers forever.

In agreement with Haws and Latin: oh yeah, this board definitely needs more Dames (both the short hispanic kind and the "generic term for female" kind), if the last year or so has taught us anything at all.

Yeah, well, you also think "Bad Touch" is one of the worst songs ever, so we've already proven that you clearly have no taste. I reiterate: who the fuck is this girl, where the fuck has she worked, and why the fuck is she "infamous"?

That's pretty much exactly what I would do if I were in Vince's shoes right now. This is a huge money-drawing angle just begging to happen. Yes, it would've been shitty of the WWE to have worked us all about this situation from the beginning, but now that events have happened the way they have, the only smart thing to do is to turn the shoot into a work. You could even turn Trish face out of the whole thing, why not, everyone's already cheering her anyway. And just because she's no longer Heel Trish doesn't mean that she can't still be Evil Bitch Trish; for chrissakes, name me one happy smiling do-gooder babyface from the entire Attitude era who got over. The only one who'd get kinda left out in the cold by the whole deal would be Kane, and that kinda sucks, but hell, it's friggin KANE, he's like the modern-day Flair, no matter how many times he gets buried he always somehow rises back to the top.

I get confused on which series was which after Beast Wars. Whichever one was computer generated and happened on Cybertron was alright, I caught it a few times when I'd been up all Friday night and was just winding down watching tv the next morning. However, the new animated one that Cartoon Network put out was just godawful, clearly nothing more than a cheap attempt to cash in on the Pokemon generation with the Transformers name and characters slapped on top of it. I can't believe they ditched the awesome new HeMan cartoon but they kept this load of shite. I've never even heard of Headmasters before, it sounds pretty cool. It also further confirms my theory that I could make a shitload of money if I could simply find someone who spoke Japanese really well. All I'd need is a cheap character generator and a stack of imported Japanese videos and DVDs of untranslated shows, and I could churn out my own library of bootleg videos subtitled in English. I think there would be a HUGE underground market for that sort of thing, considering the vast amount of untranslated or badly dubbed stuff out there.

I generally like my burgers plain too. Meat & cheese, maybe some mayo, maybe ketchup or lettuce if I'm feeling REAL adventurous, but otherwise the plainer the better. And oh yeah, I hate that bullshit in sit-down restaurants where they pretty much ignore your special order because "the toppings come separately". Uh, no they don't, they come sitting on top of the top half of the bun, and all those icky juices from the tomato and pickle have already seeped down into the bread by the time it gets to me. For christs sake, it takes LESS effort to give me a plain burger, you fucking morons. Give the customer what they fucking asked for.

Strangely enough no, I'm six feet tall. I'm taller than both my folks and all four of my grandparents. This means one of two things: either my mom was sleeping around (unlikely, she's so prudish I'm amazed that me and my brother exist), or that I'm actually the result of a secret government project that genetically engineered me before birth to become the ultimate killing machine. Jingus est Solid Snake, PH3AR.

My mother is a thin-boned hypochondriac who's 50 years old, 5 feet tall, has degenerative arthritis and severaly deformed spinal discs. So no, my mom couldn't beat up your mom. HOWever, my dad is an ungodly strong little fireplug who is quite literally bulletproof. So my dad can beat up your dad.

Demon Anya is basically invincible as long as you didn't fuck with her pendant, while Lorne is more or less vulnerable to getting his ass kicked like everyone else. Anya would win.

Rob? Girl? Sex? It's a work. EDIT: I've heard several mentions of Dana Dameson, and they all seem to refer to how infamous or notorious she is. This despite the fact that, aside from those vague mentions, I've never heard of her and have no idea why she supposedly has such a wild rep.

Online consensus now seems to be that it was a staph infection. Which is a really crappy random way to die. Oddly enough, Candido's now the second wrestler I know of to die that way.

I hate loud annoying kids because I rarely ever was a loud annoying kid. My parents had me well trained enough to keep my fucking voice down in public, and it's my right to hold every other parent on the planet to that same standard.

The test is oversimplified shite. There are way too many questions where I didn't feel comfortable with the wording or I felt there was no correct answer. As usual, I ended up being Gandhi again.

Finally got my hands on a copy of Terry Funk's autobiography, and hot damn is it even better than I hoped. Seriously perhaps the best wrestling book since Have A Nice Day. Funk goes into very great detail talking about all sorts of things that most guys just never mention. The only problem with it is the length, a mere 250 pages, but unlike all the other books this one is nothing but small-print words on every page, not gigantic page-eating fonts or tons of pictures, so it feels a lot longer. Well worth the time of any wrestling fan to give it a look. And oh yeah, he does respond to Flair's comments on Bret and Foley.

Watch the DVD box set of the TV series first, Kotz. Trust me on this one.

Yeah, I kinda did, and I can see the argument there where Golbez turns out to be just a lackey for Zemus/Zeromus. But it was handled a tiny bit better there. In that one, it was "and THIS is who was behind it all along!" In 9, it was "Hey guys. Wassup. I WILL EAT YOUR PLANET." And just because they made the mistake earlier doesn't excuse them from making it again. In fact, it makes the latter transgression even worse.

There is NOTHING I hate more than a fucking teaser. Grrrrrrrr. It was still fucking lame. There was no reason whatsoever to have that last extra guy, other than a Russo Swerve. Kuja should have been the LAST boss, period.

The original Night of the Living Dead has always been one of my favorite movies. I liked it (and the sequels) ten years ago, way before it was trendy. I've deliberately avoided all the hype & spoilers and stuff for this movie. Just for that one moment of seeing that trailer... and maaaaaaaan, does it look fucking cool or WHAT. Can't wait.

...what the fuck are you talking about? This is the first time I've ever heard that.

So pretty much anyone who wants to can just set up their own Iconboard for free and go to town, with no popups? How the hell did Crono manage that?

I really liked IX... up to a point. That point: What the FUCK is the deal with the entire last disc? Out of nowhere, the last boss king badass of FFIX issssss... some random galactic asshole we've never even heard of before?! "Hi. I was just walking by here. LET'S BATTLE TO THE DEATH." And the ending was the weakest fairytale copout of all time. How the FUCK did Zidane get out of the tree? When they revealed him alive and well at the end, I couldn't even transcribe all the cussing I subjected my TV to. Square pretty much set up that last cut-scene to look like Zidane DIED, no escape possible. "He didn't jump out of the cock-a-doodie car!" So if you think about it, that means the entire kingdom Punk'd the new Queen Garnet. They let her believe that Zidane was dead for weeks before he suddenly pops up at the end. I'm sorry. I've had it. That's just fucking wrong. And it was really annoying how Steiner was a prick all the way til the end of the game, and then he turned face because... uh... because they needed a happy ending. And they more or less said that all the Black Mages were going to die within a couple of years, including Vivi. YAY SQUARESOFT. This isn;t Blade Runner, you fucking idiots. And the big payoff for the entire game was... seeing Zidane and Garnet KISS?!? For FUCK'S sake Square, we are in a new millineum now, remove the kendo stick from your ass and say the word "sex". Prior to that, it's a damn fine game. Even if Tetra Master is a little too close to Pokemon for me. General bitch: is it just me, or have the last bosses & endings of every single FF title released since they left Nintendo for Sony sucked? And not just sucked, but SUCKED.

Why is TNA keeping James and Outlaw apart? The New Age Outlaws were the most over tag team since the Outsiders. In fact, there's a match that TNA could book right now: Outsiders vs. NAO. TNA practically has a gold mine just laying there at its feet in the form of all these WWE releases and all of the wrestling history they bring with them. Why don't they capitalize on it?
