  1. I balk at buying $150 pair of sneakers/shoes even if it's been years since I bought a pair of shoes. Doesn't matter that I can afford it or if it's chump change; it would and does irritate me that companies think their sneakers are worth that much. :D
  2. Hmm....interesting, and if it continues to hold in further tests, it would probably make certain patterns in my life sensical. What I'm always curious about is why areas of the brain get turned on and off like that, and why for some people like Nartwark it happens on it's own, and for others, it appears to get 'stuck' forever and does not. Not that I expect any answers anytime soon. Of course, I'm not sure I want anyone drilling holes in my skull and putting electrodes in my head. I'm funny that way. Good for testing perhaps, but I hope in the long run they find a less invasive method to affect that area of the brain.
  3. Voyager's holo-doc cracked me up; I did enjoy his character. I liked it even more when he showed up for a cameo in the Star Trek: First Contact film.
  4. I think how one deals with a death is often in direct proportion to how much one feels like there is unfinished business/lost chances/regrets, as well as the circumstances of the death (natural, violent, lengthy disease etc). When hubby's mother was hit by a train (suicide + medication problems), his sister (usually the 'cornerstone' of the siblings) had a lot of...history...w/their mother, and went through all those 'steps', and it lasted for quite a few years. My husband, however, hardly blinked - he'd already said his good-byes on an emotional level years before, if that makes sense. Myself, I typically skip the first three steps and go right to Depression, if I mourn much at all. Denial, anger and emotional bartering I do with the living, not the dead.
  5. oh no! ....the video's actually kind of funny...but not as charming as the first.
  6. I spent 6.5 minutes watching to see if it had any relevance to Kotor/SW at all... Moving to WoT. Edit: The pictures in the video are pretty....
  7. Being a copy-protection n00blet, why is it asking you to turn off your firewall? Is that a part of the new cp tech, that they send off little packets of info to verify something? Do you have to turn the firewall off-off, or can you work around it another way, with port settings or whatever? Does such only affect software firewalls or hardware ones as well?
  8. The Enterprise was the one that I didn't really see much of. By the time it started, the station that plays it here didn't come in well. Tried to watch it a couple times and it did look kinda interesting...different at least...but watching it through staticy snow became too troublesome.
  9. What the....looks about twice or 2.5 times as 'tall' as the one on mine. One day they'll make them so large that pc cases will have to lay flat again.
  10. That one I'm not sure about. I know there's a glitch or something that causes her to do that - lose all influence/not speak to you - but not sure what triggers it or if it's fixable w/out using a mod/editor.
  11. According to the walkthrough, supposedly if you answer in a certain way she eventually gives you influence, the power Battle Precognition, which adds your WIS bonus to your DEF. Edit: the infamous 'robe' glitch also occurs - at least pre-patch. Dunno about after.
  12. lol, that one's definitely more amusing. Nice find.
  13. I have no idea who the Jem Ha'dar are...were they Kira's people? I found her storyline pretty dull whenever they devoted episodes to it. I admit I didn't watch the last few seasons tho. By then I'd pretty much given up on the ST universe as a whole. And yeah, the old style, or any style, can get old...I guess for me it's really that for whatever reasons, the character groups/chemistry in all the series after TNG just didn't 'click' with me at all.
  14. I could never get into DS9. I tried. I liked one very early episode where an alien was prey for hunters and he took pride in that, and I liked Odo, but that was about it. No space exploration, never liked the Ferrengi, the station was dull scenery.
  15. Spock Sulu Picard Kirk :D ... :D
  16. Ok as in "yes you were a nut" or Ok as in "uh huh...whatever, LC." teehee. At any rate...happy b-day ST!
  17. No....it was Star Trek. I think this was around the time my cousin-in-law and I went to a convention, because P. Stewart was the speaker and she was madly in love with him...the only one I ever attended... Edit...I have the above show on tape somewhere...recorded off TV the day they aired it, not bought....omg I was a ST nut once.
  18. Red tights, no less. Gah. Gotta love the colors, costumes and sets of ST! But wait...I swear it wasn't that long ago they were celebrating the 25th anniversary....
  19. Are we talking skills or just personality? HK is pretty funny, but I prefer Atton as the blaster wingman, if I have one at all.
  20. omg, it takes a minute or two to become hilarious, but once it does, it's awesome.
  21. I think Darque had a wise point. I feel it's very important to create a place that fosters a positive and constructive atmosphere, not only for long-timers and new members, but for those non-members who may be reading the forum and considering whether or not it's a community they'd wish to join. This isn't a 'private' forum and imo it should strive to potentially be a place for everyone, even those of relatively thin-skin.
  22. While I have not played the game in question, it would appear not... *doodles in the sandbox*
  23. The Sentinel - ok, not great, and Keifer is stuck in '24' mode.
  24. Hey, if popular youtubers can meet their match through their v-blogs, who knows! Think positive! "
