  1. Ya I know the feeling
  2. Ya, but with drugs, and really everything, its hard to overcome a youth's immortality complex
  3. Thats probaly true, but only because we are told that "drugs" across the board, will kill us. When someone gets ahold of pot for the first time and the worse thing that happens is a bad case of the munchies, and uncontrollable giggling, a reasonable person might ask, "What else were they wrong about?"
  4. You're mistaken
  5. We have a Russel Crow fan with us tonight. Lets give it up for that tiny, tiny man
  6. Theres so many, I don't know where to start, oh wait, yes I do. Joel Shumacher. You know its funny, you can talk about killing as many celeb, as you want, but say you want to kill the president, and you're on "probation" on these boards

    Rome

    I haven't been able to get into Rome, dunno why, maybe its just the characters never seem "casual". I watched the first season of Six Feet Under, and liked it o.k., but I didn't watch much after that and didn't get to see how alot of stories developed. I loved the Sopranos more often then not, but Deadwood was just sort of a dreary wash to me
  8. I'd be for that, as long as children still had to wear their seatbelts. As for medical marijuana, when my friend's grandmother developed breast cancer, we'd go regularly to the hospital in Houston for her treatment. Their I met many middle age and elderly people who where undergoing treatment, and only becasue of it started smoking marijuana. One thing is many cancer treatments diminish the patients appetite to next to nothing. Others told me about how other "painkillers" really messed them up more then simply smoking marijuana. The truth though, is with these people, I wouldn't feel right denying them anything they said worked for them.
  9. Well, I'm not to serious about that. Very rarely have I observed anyone reacting dangerously to marijuana, it has happen on a couple of occasions, but nothing too serious. I won't believe that it is anymore serious then drinking, or taking most prescription drugs.

  11. Ya, anytime someone was just taking trivial things in life too seriously they'd have to hit a bong or something.
  12. Marijuana of course, should be legalized. Everyperson on the planet has every right to do what they will to themselves. One of the main reasons that I would beleive that marijuana isn't legalized is that people don't treat it like cigarettes. If marijuana was legal tomorrow, people wouldn't go in droves to buy packs of marijuana cigarettes, they'd grow there own. This would seriously limit how much money the government could make off it in "taxes". Really hemp is the "cash crop" that would really aid american manufacturing, I've never really understood why hemp isn't legal to grow within the U.S., something about making regulation too tuff, but anyone who's seen a pot plant and a hemp plant could easily distinguish the two. I really don't believe though that marijuana will ever be legal in the U.S., which is a shame, because not only should it be legal, it should be mandatory
  13. Thats a strange statement coming from someone who worships at the alter of kotor games

    Amerika

    I'm not really interested in this thread anymore but I thought this is interesting. Actually, psychologists suggest that women that sell their body for a living are always suffering from some kind of emotional disorder, often a childhood trauma. The fact that they "appear" normal and "seem" happy doesn't preclude the possibility that they can be emotional wrecks. Don't take my word for it, though. Do some research on the matter and see what you can dig up. Prostitution isn't just another job, and while I'm all for it being regulated (as it's obviously impossible to suppress completely), I no longer think it's "okay" and I won't be supporting it by being a consumer of prostitution. Plain ol' smut, on the other hand... " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have to totally agree with numbers here. I've know alot of strippers in my time, and more often then not they have been addicted to some sort of drug. Even those who don't have a "physical' addiction, more often then not evolve some sort of sickening mental addiction. Where as our and alot of societies seems to treat women as *items* in almost every facet, its an entirely different thing to participate freely in such things. Just the idea that money and some sort of "power" is enough for these women to want to be a part of it seems sick enough for me.
  15. Fuel economy hasn't been a prioity with american cars, look at hummers that get a wopping 8mi. per gallon highway. The worse thing is that owning a small fuel efficent car here, is basically like taking your life into your hands, because if you're in an accident, most likely its going to be some housewife in her giant SUV who didn't see you because she was on her cellphone.
  16. We have something similiar in PBS and NPR(more so) as a mostly government funded news source(although its hard to tell as much as they ask for money) But somehow the whole thing still gets labeled as liberally biased. I guess theres a bit of truth in it, since most people who work for them have gone to college, and *most* formally educated people tend to "swing' towards the left. Also alot of the people who work for them could make more money taking other jobs in their field, again something *most* conservatives in america wouldn't do. As for Cindy Sheenan, she has every right to question if her son died fighting for a legitiment cause. Its unfortant that Fox news finds it so important to try to discredit her, but these are the tactics of today's spin machines. It does seem strange that they wouldn't just ignore her, but I guess they get better ratings this way. *ofcourse by most I mean definitely mostly all :cool:
  17. Thats pretty well GOLD
  18. I really thought of Silk Fox as an elitist who's motivation is to undo the evils done by her father, and of course get you and possible Dawn Star also into the sack. And the game did alot better job of making fun of Zu then you could ever
  19. I wish that was a joke, but I know its not. If its sucessful who cares about the previous storyline, make another movie by all means. I guess they could always use the "alternative ending' and all, I have to ask, is the same guy directing it?
  20. Non Photo-Blue-- <<<pinback>>>
  21. This Modern Love--- Bloc Party
  22. Visas was a great party member, she's almost constantly in my party, even if it means I never have to talk to the Handmaiden again. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Visas's character is remarkable boring. And whats with the blind using that much lipstick?
  23. The problem isn't that news organizations are liberal or conservative, its that they are corporately owned, it all just a series of distractions
  24. but it's strange to read in the news that people are looting/raping/killing etc. instead of helping each other, no matter what the circumstances. I feel perplexed when I read it. If one were to draw a parallel concering how people act with the how people acted during the disaster in south asia, is it really culture that affects our actions so much? Or is it something else? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, New Orleans is a pretty rough town, my friends sister and I once got shot at(in our general vicinity) for not giving someone(crackhead) my change outside a gas station
  25. I don't know Jolie is pretty creepy no matter what she's in, or who she's bloodletting with. BOT: I like these, especially since you took the time to draw a male Revan without being prompted. Although I do think that its a bit funny that someone who supposively caused the deaths of millions is preaching about not smoking, oh well
