FL Teen Commits Suicide Live On Web
I've seen people having to deal with loved ones commiting suicide, and I've dealt with it myself once, and I've come to this conclusion: Sorry, but that guy was an ****. Everyone who commits suicide is an ****. There is no worse way to cause people you leave behind pain, and you're pretty much doing it on purpose. It's the most selfish thing anyone could ever do. If it were possible, I feel everyone who commits suicide should be ressurected and psychologically tortured for years. I'm usually pretty empathic about things like this, but suicide is not one of them. I feel zero pity for this guy. However, that doesn't excuse people actually encouraging this dumbass to be so selfish. They need a swift kick in the head.

Uwe Boll appreciation thread
The worst thing about Dungeon Siege is that it wasn't bad to the point of being funny, it was just plain bad. Which means that because he's getting better he's getting worse.

That's Josh Hartnett, not Josh Brolin.

Yeah, portrayed as a buffoon who should have listened to his father. Seriously, this was about as Patriotic as Starship Troopers - seems patriotic on the surface, but it's really not at all. It seriously confused me that a movie called the Patriot could make so much fun of patriots. Then it hit me, Roland Emmerich is German. (I guess there are people who still think Starship Troopers was meant to be taken seriously too, so I can't blame you too much.)

Wrath of the Lich King
I played for a while, but I never played more than 2 hours a week and it just didn't justify the costs. I tried playing on a cracked server at some point, but broken quests, lag and bugs were more trouble than they're worth (though the WoW beta was worse than that was).

Are you kidding? Very patriotic? This movie's tagline should have been "this country isn't worth fighting for but the english killed my son, now it's personal."

The Prestige 8/10 Some flaws, but excellent movie. Executed perfectly - it knows to give you enough hints about one plot twist to figure it out and feel smug about it, then gives you a second plot twist that boggles the mind even though it's so obvious only because you never took the time to think about it.

Will the economic crisis affect the video game industry?
Didn't it already? Didn't EA just lay off 600 people or something just when they're starting to produce better stuff?

Oh yes, this was great The jokes in this series are really good, while they can make the viewer take it a lot less serious - otoh, which sci fi series where the main party always ends up smuggling cows or dueling with swords or saving a "witch" from being burnt can take itself serious? My favourite joke is River's reaction to Shepherd Brook's loose hair.

Michael Crichton dies of cancer
This made me quite sad when I heard because Jurassic Park is pretty much responsible for 50% of my childhood.

These people sound like they watched too many crappy B-Movies. "Look, I'm an extra in Killer Klowns From Outer Space!"

Quotes
"I like my sex the way I play basketball. One on one with as little dribbling as possible." - Leslie Nielsen "Life... is like a grapefruit. It's orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast." - Douglas Adams "Maybe there is no actual place called hell. Maybe hell is just having to listen to our grandparents breathe through their noses when they're eating sandwiches." - Jim Carrey Yeah. That was Lovecraft's favorite quote to, and attributing it to him would be faulty. Algernon Blackwood wrote that.

I have a question...
Well, that doesn't take away the fact that species can change over time, right? And that's what evolution is, right? Natural selection and all would be blown out of the water, but I'm pretty sure evolution wouldn't be. Then again, what do I know? My knowledge of evolution ends with the fact that I like prehistoric animals.

What you did today
I pondered much about the potential for hilarity and pissed off nerdery of a movie adaptation of this:
-
I have a question...
The theory of evolution is about whether or not evolution exists? I thought the theory of evolution is why evolution happens. Wasn't it's existence pretty much confirmed, if not by the finches then with changing generations of rodents/bugs in controlled environments?

Things you'd like to say but don't/can't
I'm not against the Islam per se (just anti-religious in general), but in this case I'm just saying eye for an eye.

Things you'd like to say but don't/can't
I'd like to tell every vegetarian that for any animal they don't eat, I'm going to eat two. Also, if they are doing it to save the animals, I'd tell them how much deforestation soy bean farming causes as well as how many small mammals die due to their harvest. I would like to tell all the dutch muslims that for every mosque they build in this country I'm going to build a church wherever they came from and for every church that gets destroyed a mosque will share it's fate. In fact, speaking of religious people, I would like to tell them that the universe is so enormously big that our entire species means absolutely nothing. Then I'd tell them that if they think they could possibly have the right idea or that any universal force is looking out for someone as insignificant as them then they are by that moment effectively the most arrogant person in that enormous universe. I'd like to tell most of my extended family that they should stay the **** out of my house. I'd like to tell the internet that just because it gives you anonimity that doesn't mean you get to act like a ****ing douche. I'd like to tell my neighbours that if they don't move someone might soon burn their house down just so they would leave. I'd like to tell the 90's that they sucked. I'd like to tell Japan fangirls and fanboys that they should get their ass to Japan if they like it too much and keep my ears free from their bullcrap. I'd like to tell emo kids that they should stop teasing us and push the razor in deeper. I'd like to tell modern animals that they are not nearly as cool as dinosaurs. More if I think of any. Oh yeah, I'd like to tell the mods that they're asshats for no other reason than to kick against the local authority.

I had previous engagements that I didn't want to miss and required me to be outside a lot (and from experience I know that's not a good idea.) Thanks everyone. Some of this stuff worked so well.

Dental Pain
Okay, I got me in a fix. I've got me a wisdom teeth that's pressing against my other teeth including a few that were already damaged due to a childhood bike accident, which is causing kill hurt destroy type pain. I can't have it removed just yet or I risk causing major infections. I am already on painkillers, but they do not seem to be working or are just not strong enough. Naturally, because I am on painkillers using alcohol to dull the pain is NOT a good idea. So, anyone know another way that I can make the hurting stop?

Dutch youths convicted of virtual theft
See, the part of this crap that you guys are all missing (that I haven't, seeing as I live in Holland where this has gotten quite a bit of coverage) is that these kids forced the other kid to come home with them, type in his personal information and send it over under threat of violence. They may have gotten it on a bogus charge, but I can't say I wish they hadn't been charged.
