    One of my students figured out my steam handle based on the games I talk about and where I live. Pretty clever kid.

    I'm very impressed by all the new fancy badges on the forums. I went with First name "Hurlshot" Last name on the credits.

    I haven't even watched the first one.
  4. Hurlshort
    That is awesome!

    I'm surprised you can't rent time on racetracks to test your cars in Sweden. You can do it on quite a few tracks in California.

    Dear Trashman, Please limit yourself to two funny pictures/images/videos a day. Try and pick the best ones. Sincerely, Everyone

    There is more to it than that, obviously. If you pop a tire, or simply lose control, you are going to make a huge mess of the roadway. Who do you think pays for those roads? Who is going to pay for the cleanup crew to come scrape your carcass off the road? You can go test your car on racetracks if you want, but the freeway is not your personal playground.

    Why? Probably because there isn't much else to play on the new console.

    Well he wasn't on the freeway if it was a 45 mph zone. Was it CHP, city police, or sheriff? I got a ticket once for going 79 on a 65 mph freeway that I was a bit upset over. That being said, now I just try and keep it at 75 and under.

    Ever since Nixon sweated like a stuck pig on national TV in the 1960 debate, I'm pretty sure every President has a team of consultants getting them dressed.

    That's not going to work. If you contest the ticket, you sometimes get out of it just by showing up to court, since the officer won't show unless it is serious. If you want to argue the case, you need to have specifics about that ticket, they don't care about your history. Were you tagged with radar or that light gun thing? You were going over the speed limit, so I'm not sure what your case is. I'd recommend paying the fine, take the online class, and moving on with your life. It will take less time and it's an easy process. Contesting it still means you might end up paying more in court fees and still have to deal with the infraction afterwards, if you are found guilty.

    I don't mean to upset you Volourn. I understand that on many other websites people talk smack about sports and throw around insults. That's just not the way the majority of posters conduct themselves here. There is more casual observations and polite discourse.

    You have two statements there: "There is little to nothing wrong with our world" - Nobody is claiming that. "It's better than ever" - It quite clearly is. These statements do not need to be connected.

    I wouldn't bother Keyrock, we go through this a lot in the NHL thread.

    I always enjoyed the Vegas CSI, but Miami looked terrible fromt he start and I never even bothered with New York.

    I'm really enjoying Assassin's Creed 3. I remember people complaining about there not being enough to do on the frontier, but I'm having a blast running around. Although I fall out of tree a lot. Like I've died more falling out of trees than doing anything else. In fact it's not even close, I've died once from a wolf, twice in fights, and a dozen times tumbling through branches.

    I ate something bad last night and have lived on the toilet for much of the day. Ugh.
  18. Hurlshort
    Hah, I've been totally addicted to Rogue Legacy lately. It's brutal, I die all the time, but I finally beat my first boss and I'm starting to actually survive a bit longer than a couple minutes.

    There is a decent chance that InXile is going to screw up the combat. So I'd rather have it over with fast in real time than drawn out TB. But maybe they'll get it right?

    Junior High's, or Middle Schools, exist in most of the US, but I guess they only have them in certain provinces in Canada. Even in the US there are still many elementary schools that go k-8, but they are typically magnets or offer something unique. What is grade 13?

    Are you referring to the death of an icon, or the classy response by Cultist?

    My wife is a former fitness instructor, and she agrees with about Crossfit being a fairly dangerous activity. She also complains about those Tough Mudder events.

    I've been keeping it simple and just running a mile a day, doing push ups and situps at work, and stretching regularly. I've been doing this about 5 times a week for the last few months and I feel a lot better than I did before I started. It isn't going to change me terribly, but at my age I'm more concerned with not losing ground. I still play hockey once a week and that has been going better since I started running.

    The problem is the numbers in Final Fantasy vary depending on the country. I'm pretty sure FFIV is something different in Japan.

    Looking back on the 20th century, we had some amazing Civil Rights activists. It will be interesting to see who rises to the occasion in the 21st Century. It will be even more amazing when we no longer need them. So far in the 21st Century the only impressive activist I've seen has been Malala Yousafzai.
