  1. I'd be pissed off too if my girlfriend's boobs turned out to be fake. edit: seriously the t-version of boobs gets censored?
  2. Hey Cali, while you're at it, legalise shrooms too. Seriously, anyone who manages to actually abuse mushrooms will manage to abuse just about anything.
  3. Or, you discover hidden truths which your brain wouldn't allow you to see before. Just because getting caught up in wacky stuff is maladaptive doesn't always mean it's not there.
  4. Yes. Heck, I see no reason why authorites should ban anything responsible adults wish to do within the confinements of their private quarters. I'm not a big fan of the hedonistic hard drugs, but if one has a desire to experiment with those things without bothering anyone else, what the hell is wrong with that? Of course there will always be abuse, but that's the case with just about anything, from speed driving to porn addiction, and much much more. And making something illegal certainly doesn't change that fact.

    I think I know who you mean. Do they have a track 'tamacun'? Yes. Though their best album imo is 11:11. Check it out if you can.

    I just found out Orbital has released 2 new singles recently. 6 years ago I thought these guys were dead. Last year they toured again for their 20th anniversary. And now it seems they're actually making music together again. Can I get a F*CK YEAH?!
  7. Like this one? I thought Signs was crap btw.

    I saw a show last week of Rodrigo y Gabriela, two talented Mexican guitarists, and was very impressed.
  9. saw Toy Story 3 with the girl, maybe not as good as the second but still great as always with Pixar
  10. He's not the end boss any more. The Myans have all ready determined that the end of the world is in 2012. Who do you beleive? Don't forget the Myans already have had help from Aliens, who have had the ability to see "light years" ahead in time, before they visited us here on earth! NOW THAT'S SPOOKY! BTW, no one has ever found out what happened to the Myans, have they? They just vanished of the face of the earth. You were drunk when you posted this, right?
  11. http://www.trmk.org/images/mk9/MortalKomba...een_Tedakin.jpg 26 standard kombatants, 1 hidden and 1 DLC Ed Boon has been saying he's returning to the first 3 MK's, although the story is to take place after MK:Armageddon, with some time travel elements. Coincidentally, MK Trilogy had 26 non-boss kombatants so I wouldn't be surprised (nor disappointed) if we didn't get any of the post-MK3 characters. I think a Cyborg Sub-Zero would be nice as the hidden or DLC kombatant.
  12. That's not how it works. A solar flare isn't like a laser, hitting a precise spot. It's a wind of highly energetic particles that plays havoc with, and gets dispersed across, earth's various electromagnetic systems. It might be fair to say, however, that the night-time side of the earth would escape the damage. I'm no expert on geophysics though. Actually, I seem to recall the earth's magnetosphere would cause some sort of whiplash to the side "hidden" from the sun when a powerful solar flare strikes.
  13. Do mind the careful caveat: And it certainly wouldn't be the first time a listed company were lying. Besides, if I'm correct, this would benefit shareholders more than harm them.
  14. They're lying because console games are more profitable than pc games (the latter being the bigger victim of pirating). Thus, if people believe it won't be released on pc, they will buy it on console. If Rockstar were to confirm a pc release, a considerable amount of gamers would just wait until they could pirate it.
  15. new Mortal Kombat trailer http://e3.gamespot.com/video/6265111/ I still play UMK3 quite often with friends on the SNES. Never liked the installments after the original trilogy. 3D just isn't as much fun, and the characters were uninspired ripoffs of the originals. Looks like this new one is going back to 2D combat (with 3D graphics) and oldskool characters. All I can say is: yes. Now I just need Scorpion confirmed and then it'll be: hell yes.
  16. Ah yes WACC wasn't very fun, in fact the majority of finance was pretty lame. Then again I took it online so I was learning out of a book, so double not fun and double incomprehensible. :'( Take your time champ, you'll be fine. I believe in you. Yea it's coming together. But I'm really not a numbers person. I mean I studied law for a reason: I just really don't like maths and calculations (not the concept of maths though, just me doing them). Anyway I've been sitting between books for about 13 hours today, time to catch some sleep.
  17. I spent half my day trying to grasp how to calculate the weighted average capital cost (WACC). Finally got the hang of it but dangggg, there's much more to do and I've only 2 days to master a 1000 page course of financial management.
  18. I saw the first episode of Spartacus: Blood and Sand last night and thought it was pretty horrible. However I've read it gets better. Any comments on this?
  19. Apparently, Lost will continue. Check this trailer. Watch all of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gb5J3cOv_vg
  20. Season 6 DVD Will Have Epilogue of Ben and Hurley on Island
  21. I'm seeing Ben more as the new Alpert than the new Smokey. If anyone could be a new Smokey, it should be Jack (although not necessarily with the same motivations). The shoe was Christian's, it dates back from the Pilot episode. edit: speaking of Alpert, has that guy actually done anything of importance during the entire show?
  22. I wonder how the people on the Ajira plane are going to explain where they come from. "Hey remember us? We're the people who crashed 3 years ago, then returned, then took another plane all together and crashed again, and now we're back again thanks to the runway that just happened to be on the island, and oh yeah, we brought some survivors from the first crash with us, of whom we originally claimed they were dead btw."
  23. Jack's wife is obviously going to be Juliet. Sawyer will join Miles to the concert, see Juliet, and remember his island-life. Which made me realise: the only characters that haven't yet made a cameo this season are Shannon (but who cares?) and Eko. I hope we see Eko again, but somehow I doubt it. edit: forgot Christian Shephard. Wouldn't surprise me if he showed up in the finale.
  24. Yet again, this episode showed how much Lost needs Desmond. I'm totally disappointed in Widmore, btw. I mean, the guy needed Jacob himself to convince him that the world was going to end if Flocke was allowed to leave the island, goes through all that trouble returning, and then - in about 3 seconds time - completely changes his mind. He's like the Nathan Perelli of Lost. Also, what is Ana Lucia going to tell her superiors? The prisoners were able to escape while I was buying a winning lottery ticket?
