    Were they foxy? EDIT: Anywhere I can't walk I go by taxi. Maybe a touch ferret-faced...

    As part of the whole teaser trailer aspect of comic-con.... http://youtu.be/toPstPIcGnI

    Does choking a classmate unconscious count?

    For some strange reason people who meet me keep thinking I must have gone to a public school. I have no frelling idea why. Is it because you can't sit down? I think it's a mix of the accent and always wearing a jacket....

    To wander briefly into celeb field again..

    Heh, I think the most I've had at any one time is about 700k. I've just never really sat down to make a heavy effort to get the mounds of cash that so many people seem to have.

    m'colleague http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdol18SVS7A (note: 'the future' was 2010) I'm still trying to figure out if Wals is Fry and I'm Laurie...

    Belief is a personal thing. And there are a lot of scientists who discovered a belief in God (or some idea of Deity) through their science. Although hm, thinking about it, from the people I know .. the physicists are more likely to be believers in a deific concept, while the chemists tend to be more science without a god. Which is a little quirky. There are a lot of genuinely good and sincere people in many religions. There are just as many annoying and bigoted fethwits as my colleague Wals says. There's the fairly same split for agnostics and atheists. As time goes by, just remember, your choice of religion or not-religion is not a sexual organ. I would not want you to try shoving it down the throats of any children I might have in the future.

    And to go with the short-shorts weather abounding...

    What is a militant atheist? Do they go door to door and say "Have you welcomed science into your life?" Or wave guns at you telling you not to pray? Sorry, I can get people being aggressively atheist. Or even aggressively anti-organised religion. But I think it's hard to justify calling someone militant unless you accurately compare it to various militant <insert x religious belief> behaviour...

    Got a bit annoyed with Risen 2 when some of the combat moves wouldn't work like the in-game prompt kept telling me. So I look online to double-check and find that you have to be holding down the right mouse button as well as pressing whatever the game is telling you to press. Now I can actually kick and parry/riposte.

    Just got back from a bbq at a friends. Nice time, a gathering of folks who haven't managed to all meet up in a few months. A bunch of whom I used to actually go to school with. And the heat seems to be breaking a bit here. Of course, it's always a bit disconcerting to be the sole single person there when everyone else is with a significant other, potentially a child along as well, or someone pregnant...

    In a return to non-famous posts..

    The key to this thread is not to spout off various political, religious, or racial beliefs, but to generally share in an aesthetic appreciation for the female form and the varied perspectives on attraction in the multitude of cultures around the world that make up the Obsidian forums.. Now, however much it would be nice to find out just how smart and/or funny these women are, let's kick back on some old fashioned misogynistic geek ogling without the ranting..

    I feel a need to pull this thread back on track in a more general way..

    Now it's half tempting to say "Challenge Accepted!" and go find some Avatar cosplayers to throw on this thread...

    Hey, I have great respect for women who wear fishnets. I did it once for the Rocky Horror Show and it's bloody murder unless you shave your legs first.

    Heh, for some reason hot lawyers always remind me of an early scene in Castle. "You're hot, you're intelligent. You should have become a lawyer. The only reason attractive smart women become cops is because they're damaged in some way." Still, to return to the mood of days of ComicCon and non celebs.. I'll throw in a Red Riding Hood

    Hm, had very trippy dreams about trying to take off from some jungle valley surrounded by serious cliffs.. and the object I was flying kept changing between an old twin-prop plane and a flying table. I think the heat is getting to me. That and the humidity is hanging around the 50-60% mark which isn't helpful. It's killing my appetite and I've been forcing myself to actually eat the last few days.

    Vol, that wasn't a whine, that was a general comment. For the second, a top and just above the knee length skirt is really not flashing huge amounts of skin.. Or at least, if you consider that flashing skin, you really need to get out more.

    Decided to follow Hurlshot's lead out of curiousity and pick up a copy of Risen 2 in the sale, having a short poke at it now.
  24. Raithe
    Well we weren't bringing it up to say it worked great or whatever. More in the way that what Wals was talking about sounding like the idea of Radiant, but focused on NPC companions and the archetypal stories that tend to go with them.

    Hm, gran had a fall the other day, so she went in for a checkup. They found she was showing signs of anemia, so out of the possibility of internal bleeding she's spending a couple of days in the hospital. Of course, now they've discovered a duodenum(?) ulcer thats right next to a key artery or something. So the joys of somewhat risky surgery potentially ahead. Funny thing, when they told her she was going to be moved up to the G8 Ward (the geriatric wing) she was all "No way in hell. My husband was taken there right before he died and he got crap attention. He was ignored, they forgot to give him the right meds, they did this that and the other wrong and made his last month pretty hellish. If I'm not staying in this ward I'm going home." After some hemming and hawing they decided to not move her.
