Pope

Hey, that was me a few years back. Meeting social friends and good-looking girls worked for me. I never cared much for the outside world, until the outside world started caring for me. Sort of a mutual respect thing. Once you're stuck in it, it's real hard getting out. Not to mention kinda useless as well.

I read somewhere Blizzard is planning to release an expansion every year. Knowing Blizzard, I just don't see that happening.

Thank the powers for making European scouting vastly different from its American counterpart. Those badges are worse than MySpace!

WoW is the devil.

Now let's see. Which NPC's actually had something to do with the storyline? In BG1, there was Imoen, and even then her actual connection was only revealed in BG2. There were Khalid and Jaheira, whose connections were simply that they were old friends of your mentor. Oh yeah, and Kivan's girlfriend was killed by Tazok. That's about the best motive of any BG1 NPC to follow you around that long. That's it for BG1 as far as I can tell. In BG2, there was Yoshimo. And later Sarevok. Did I miss anyone?

BG NPC's had little to nothing to do with the main plot, though. At times it felt a bit unrealistic that these people just kept following you around unquestioningly. I much prefer KOTOR's NPC's in that regard.

can't wait to see more of Henry he is the coolest character on Lost

And yet, animals have no laws, they live in chaos and all is perfect. Why is that? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because they're stupid, and thus, not egocentric. Animals live by the laws of nature, by the way. Mankind has practically forsaken nature and instinct, mainly because of his intelligence and thereby his ability to do so.

I pity people that blindly follow the law, not even considering that it might not even make any sense at all. Law is a human construction. That, per definition, makes it imperfect. Being a 4th year law student, I believe I'm qualified to make this statement. Of course, complete chaos would not at all offer a better solution, but still, it is something to ponder upon.

This is hardly an eye for an eye.

So how do you do that? I'm one of those people that needs like at least an hour to fall asleep. I could sure use those l33t sleeping skillz.

Tell me about it. I haven't had a decent night of sleep in 2 weeks, and having an exceptional high need for sleep, that makes Pope a really tired person today. I would sleep all day if only I could.

And you would know how? I suppose you've been studying the effects of gas emissions to the environment during your NWN breaks?

Lost 16 days :cool: as well as South Park :cool: :cool:

Lost doesn't even need a story as long as it has Evangeline

Me like cliffhangers though.

Numb3rs any good? Or is it CSI-like, i.e. standalone plots?

Too much shows, too little bandwith so it seems.

Muchos gracias se

That sounds waaaay too much like Star Trek. Which I absolutely loathe. Also, I like series with closure. A dragged out plot is lame.

Is that a bit like CSI? If so, I actually prefer shows with an overarching storyline rather than a fresh little plot in each episode.

Lost and Prison Break renewed my interest in tv-shows. But since 1 meager episode a week doesn't cut it anymore, I'm on the lookout for other shows. I tried Invasion, but after about 10 episodes I decided that it sucked. These are the other ones that piqued my interest, so I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they're any good before I start wasting $ or bandwith on them: The 4400: does this show go anywhere, or is it just another endless X-Files? The Dead Zone: same as above Oz: 6 seasons seems quite much to me, does it have closure or is it more of a soap? Alias: I read the final episodes feel a bit too forced Rome: heard lots of good stuff about this one Taken: I saw the first two episodes and I got bored, does it get better? Any others? Keep in mind that I'm not too fond of too much sci-fi, especially when there's aliens involved (which is why I didn't like Invasion and Taken all that much).

Who's to say this life is real? And I have to add: a perfect life is impossible, since the "good things" are measured by the "bad things". Or: the only way you can feel sad is if you've felt something really good before (and vice versa), so you have to take the bad with the good.

I was reading some Kant yesterday. Where's the fun in philosophizing if you are sceptic about everything? Water boils at 100

Because this is Europe. I don't think it starts snowing that early here. And even if it did, anything up until January is bloody cold. On top of that, the nearest slopes to where I live are about a thousand kilometers from here, so it's not something I can do in a quicky.
