    karma

    I'm glad my viewpoint so far isn't considered outright stupid. It's too late though, because the word karma has made it into everyday usage. To avoid being tormented for the rest of my days, I just accept that people say "karma" to try and make conversation, commenting on situations that match the jaundiced parameters of the word.

    karma

    Karma is the poorest reason to explain why things happen to bad people or why good things happen to good people. Why do people ignore the fact that good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people just as much as vice versa? People notice this kind of thing because it fits their idea of justice, so they explain it by saying the word, "karma," and they think they have conveyed an intelligent idea. There are numerous examples of good people who just have a lot of horrible things happen to them, and bad people get away with stuff and have no problems. Karma is a stupid term to address life's complex or random happenstances. The phrase, "what comes around goes around," is perhaps a little better, but it still doesn't tell the whole story. People seem to say these things like they are scientific laws. What may be more accurate would be the phrase, "There are consequences to people's actions." For example, if you are a jerk to people, and you get fired, it is not because of karma, rather because you are a jerk. That's my rant on karma. Thanks for listening. Please feel free to tear my argument apart now.
  4. Good point. I remember in the active threads you would eagerly await someone to start posting, and then you'd see that dotted underline on their name and be gleeful, but still have to wait a little. And I forgot to mention Cantousent was Eldar.
  5. It was fun to read about your experiences in the UK, a place I've always wanted to visit. I can relate to your admiration of the country in some ways; I don't know why but I have been fascinated by England since I was young. And hopefully you get published so I can finally read your manuscript.
  6. Remember back in the day when the forums were abuzz with zingers and interesting threads? Pixies still wore diapers, but he was funny then too. There was all that Star Wars art that usually ended up with people insulting each other, but they'd just start a new art thread and people were happy. Ender was still around, but he was just some other forum regular to me, since I wasn't brave enough at that point to venture out of WoT or the K2 forums. Commissar would often talk intelligently about politics and sometimes poke his nose into other things. Shadowstrider and Kaftan Barlast were neato mods. Llyranor and Nick_i_am's antics knew no end. Krookie was KotorKyle, Dark Moth was Mothman, Battlewookie was Wookiecookie. Jags spammed occasionally and at random, always classics. TOMBS was alive with prose and statistics. Baley posted more, DL still frequented. Indeed, there were only 5 of us, and the rest were just our alts, but those were the good old days.
  7. This guy kills me after I throw the nade. There are often complaints about haxors. Apparently, the bomb has been planted. Behind the font, there are two guys pistola-fighting. You can tell I'm not lying if you look on the map. See all those dead Terrorist bodies? The plan was to rush bombsite B. I think the Counter-Terrorists found out the plan. It reminded me of Pickett's Charge. 2nd person perspective. In CS you have to be careful about drunk drivers. This is from the perspective of the light fixture. Notice the sadness in the character's eyes. Sunday... Bloody Sunday. After those two guys duked it out behind "the bomb is planted" font, the CT came out the victor and took cover behind cinderblocks, next to where x marks the spot.
  8. I think it's important to know what makes a good game, and what things should be there to make it better. Especially if you aspire to be a game developer.
  9. I won't argue why or why things aren't socially acceptable. I am just assuming if a bunch of people did this in public, they'd be frowned upon or labeled strange. On the other hand, if a bunch of people dressed up as special forces and went airsofting, most people understand that this is a common practice of the activity. I don't think people in general are used to LARPing, however. Actually, it'd be interesting to see a group of people LARP in a public setting, acting like medieval characters suddenly thrust into a future environment. I'd like to see people's reactions and if the cops would stop them for disturbing the peace.
  10. The "HAHAHA" in the title is both sarcastic, based on a 4am post, and because I legitimately laugh at what I see. Why do I laugh? I don't see it every day. It's funny. I'm not saying they are stupid people, or bad people, or judging them. Although, I will judge them to the extent to make a simple observation such as "You don't see this every day." There is nothing wrong with those types of judgments. I was personally surprised by what I saw because it looked very large-scale and well thought out. Although, this activity in public would be barely socially acceptable. Fortunately they have the woods.
  11. I love the guy that falls over the hedges on the side of the path. It's perfect.
  12. Seriously, I still didn't know about that last part until they had thrown me out of the concert. Who would've thought? I mean, what's a little fecal matter going to do?
  13. These guys don't necessarily have spring break. I am glad they are still resolved enough to finish it after so long.
  14. I was wondering if the little guy got sent to the hospital after that. 1st dude, almost crying voice: Do you understand... That every time we kill one... IT HURTS! 2nd dude, quizzically, stroking beard: But if we don't kill them... How will we build our houses?
  15. Indeed, it does look as though they are having fun. I am personally glad they did this, because I get to see this small guy, dressed as a dwarf, get nailed by a large object, that looks like an axe, wielded by a large guy, dressed as a giant.
  16. Geeks in the Woods I found this online today. Please, share your thoughts, feelings, opinions.
  17. Children of Men. Has the best urban battlefield action I've ever seen in a movie. Complete with a blood spatter on the camera.
  18. My brother really likes them, so he spends the money, but I've not even touched the copy of COD3 he got. I'm too sick of the Hollywood WW2 Lame FPS's. I haven't really played another type of WW2 game, so I was ranting about the ones I have played. What are some that you recommend?
  19. Meta touched on that too. But I saw this under the comments for the article. This fact puts to shame any people who promote ape rights. Some dude from Nigeria says the same thing: I think this next guy is funny:
  20. It was a rant. I admit I am wrong. There are many games where you can play the axis side. My main point is that most of them are over-made (for example, Llyrannor claims to have 7 installed on his computer at this moment). It's the same guns, it's the usually the same setting, over and over. I'm sick of these games.
  21. I laughed when I came home from work and my brother told me he played Crackdown with you over Live.
