  1. Bester is actually a big fan of the US, so he puts up silly arguments so we can knock them down and show how great America is.
  2. Oddly enough, I got suspended when I was 12 for carving my name in a desk. I am pretty sure I deserved it. That is called vandalism.
  3. Free speech doesn't mean you get to bust into the White House and yell at the President.
  4. I'd say shooters attract worse folks than MMO's. It's also fairly easy to disable the general chat in most MMO's, which is where most of the garbage happens. You don't really miss much by doing so.
  5. I thought that thread was about TV news and reality shows, since I don't have a TV at home, TV series don't associate with TV in my mind talk about a misleading thread title Don't feel too bad, we used to have specific threads devoted to shows, and I think that was a better format. For example, the LOST thread was simply epic. If it was in a general thread, it would get lost among the shuffle.
  6. Hah, I did say earlier that we just talk about really geeky stuff and that is girls stay away from here.
  7. Yes to a certain degree that's correct. Its the same as the laws in your country and mine that prosecute people for racist comments or comments about rape using mediums like Twitter. So you should take this issue up with the UK justice department? Let me know what they say I would absolutely hate to live in such a country. We have the NSA mining our every communication but sure as hell the Feds won't come knocking whenever I quote hardcore gangsta rap (without due citation) on Twitter. Wow its funny you think that in the USA you can just say what you want with no consequences. What happened to Donald Stirling recently? He didn't get arrested, that's for sure. There are always consequences to open bigotry, the law doesn't need to get involved in everything.
  8. Yeah, if you send a pic of your weiner to someone unsolicited, you are definitely breaking a law. The tricky part is enforcement, but I'd say that is getting better every day.
  9. Men are horrible and gross. I'm fairly shocked that I got one to live with me. You guys would be best off accepting that, apologizing to every female you come in contact with, and trying to suppress all your base instincts and urges.
  10. Death Race 3 is pretty good too. Not like high quality good, but like a group of buddies who get together and make a fairly ridiculous movie about prison and car races. I'll probably watch Death Race 4.
  11. My kids live off Pozole, which is basically the opposite of Menudo.
  12. Odd Thomas - Strange, and then strangely powerful. Definitely worth a watch.
  13. Heh, ambushed by feminists and gay rights activists. You really are my favorite troll Bester. I've missed you.
  14. I can't really think of a decent acting job in Episode 1. Darth Maul was forgettable, the kid was bad, etc. I guess the Emperor was ok. Episode 2 had McGregor loosen up and I thought he was the one bright point in terms of acting, and he carried that into Episode 3. In fact if I look at it strictly as the story of Obiwan, I tend to enjoy the whole plot much better. If they edited down all the Anakin parts it would probably vastly improve the movies.
  15. I actually only finished as a Malkavian, it was simply too entertaining to stop. Might not be best for the first playthrough, it's almost like playing a movie with the director's commentary. http://youtu.be/DSzyyscEnNU
  16. Yeah, you don't get away with that stuff in ESO! It's actually the most challenging MMO I've played. The loot is better too, they added a lot of set items that are somewhat interesting, plus you can craft a huge variety of things yourself. The theme park feel is pretty much the same though.
  17. I think when you look at Shadowrun as more of an adventure game with interesting combat and skill checks, you will be a happier person.
  18. Buy it! It is a fantastic game and well told story.
  19. With a Game 7, there is a chance that either Curry or Thompson simply get hot and rain down threes, so I think GSW has a chance, even though they are clearly the underdog. Honestly neither one has been exceptionally hot, so it's impressive they are at this point.
  20. It was also pretty entertaining to watch the writers clearly messing with Chevy Chase in Community
  21. Hah, I'll be playing that game during the summer, but it will cost a good deal more and have slightly better graphics.
  22. Wait until you get to the GI Joe episode of Community. It may be the best thing I've seen in the last decade.
  23. Ewoks are adorable and you are probably dead inside if you don't like them.
  24. Ugh, I had a similar bill. Last month was painful, since I paid it then.
  25. What I'm saying is Maybe I am reading too much into it. But the problems with those movies isn't that they're not timeless classics. It's that they're bad. That's kind of my point. The criticism isn't because they're not as good as the originals. The criticism is because they're bad movies. Expectations aren't a factor. But when you look at the actual critical reviews, I mean people that are published critics, Episode I is the only one getting bad marks. Episode II got decent marks and Episode III got great marks. And honestly as TN pointed out, Episode one was more of a kids movie. It was hugely popular among the young audiences. But that didn't sit well with the folks that were kids when the originals were released. The next two films struck a better balance. Comparing any of these to a silly low budget film like Sharknado isn't fair for either film. They have entirely different goals.
