That was funny. hehehe.

Doofus, the joke is still funny.

My favorite anti-Bush joke was a bumber sticker that said: Vote Bush: Four More Wars! And the bumper sticker: Bush: IT TAKES A VILLAGE IDIOT!

It is most American to dissent. It is our right to voice our opinions, anti-, pro-, or indifferent-American as they may be. I disagree with your assessment concerning this country, but like a modern day Voltaire, I will fight to the death for your right to express it. My gut instinct, though... you wouldn't do the same. After all, what am I to think when folks around these parts talk about rising up in rebellion when the majority says something they don't want to hear? What am I to think when folks make the claim that the people who voted for Bush are stupid and should not have a say in our democratic process? What am I to think about these things? Some of you attack Bush. Fine, that's the American way and I'm glad that you do. It proves our freedom of speech to see so many people make use of it. Just remember, while you revile your country and your president, it is the very country you revile that provides you the safety to make such claims. There are no police to come drag you out of your home, take you away in the middle of the night, and execute you in a dark field. I would protect your freedom of speech. What would you do?

There's something wrong with this thread? lol

I'm waiting on Fallout 3. I'll see what other folks have to say about it. I'm with Di, this doesn't sound like Fallout to me, but that doesn't mean it will necessarily be bad.

Ah, I just want to pet your cute little avatar, Hades! What's the topic again?

Okay, that's just.... ewwww.

hahaha. I do find it funny. I think you're right. It's going to appeal to both sides simply because it identifies one attribute that is for one side a weakness while, for the other side, a strength. It has something for everyone.

Shut up, Gorth, before I insult you!

You swine-hearted wretch! You wouldn't have the balls to speak that way if this were real life. Everyone knows the internet is fake!

I hated him from the very word "meatbag." I'm overjoyed at finally getting the chance to administer a lethal dose of kick-ass to his venomous backside. So far, I'm quite pleased with this game. It's gratifying that I cannot access everything without the correct skills or materials. For instance, without security, it's apparently impossible to avoid destroying some items in locked containers. No spamming fireballs into a room rather than pick the lock. Well, normally I hate creating a new thread, and I'm very early in the game, so I don't want to hang out in a spoiler forum, but I'm overcome with joy at ridding the universe of the disgusting, wretched assassin. EDIT: I realized, after second thought, that it's not THE assassin droid. Rather, it's just AN assassin droid. Dammit, I hope I get the chance to smite the real one soon.

Hades doesn't know him, but Vis would.

Well, I killed Gromnir several times in the game and you only a few. I wonder what that means. I mean, you have a name for yourself, but did anyone create a saved game right before fighting you so they could explore different ways to smite you? Oh well, it really is cool to see some of you old veterans here. Now we just need Sarge to come in to start harrassing you. It will be like having sunday brunch at the old folks' home.

That's exactly what I'm saying here, mkreku! No more black eyes for me if I can help it. lol

I fall under the "more aggressive" in real life, at least in rancorous conversations. I find that the internet allows me time to cool down when writing a message. That period is simply unavailable to me in a normal discussion. Overall, though, I like folks and so I get along with virtually everyone. However, I am set in my convictions, which sometimes leads to less than friendly exchanges. SO, I have a lot of friends, but my friends and I aren't always on friendly terms. I'm a rather demanding friend, but I'll drop everything to help a friend in need. *shrug* As far as getting in fist fights in real life, I haven't been in a real fight for years and I don't intend to go out of my way to change that. Partly because I rather like most folks and partly because I think it's ridiculous to pride yourself on being aggressive. There's also the fact that I've learned over the years to have a good appreciation for the sanctity of my body, and fighting hurts, dammit. Then there's the fact that I'm 35 years old and it would be silly to go around like I was 19, looking to fight people for stupid reasons. Being aggressive isn't a good thing. It's simply a necessity. Being a nice, decent person on or offline is a good thing. ...And I promise you that most of the folks I know from online would spend an awful lot of time looking at their shoelaces rather then jumping up to mix it up with other folks. People can always talk tough online about how they are offline.

What a sad bunch we truly are.

My point isn't that metric is inferior. My point is that the numbers weren't random.

Numbers in measurement weren't random.

Call me a chic, but I prefer automatic. I fall in the "old man" category who sees his car as a way to get to where he wants to be, not as a way to enjoy the drive. Now my kick ass stereo...

The seats don't look too small, but it looks too small for my legs. Maybe it's like the corvette where there's leg room but you feel like you're almost lying down in the car. I hate that. My wife likes Mustangs, which is cool, because, unless you go for some ridiculous tricked out car, it's not that expensive, even for a gt. Personally, I'm a comfort and luxury sort of fellow, but the wife wins every time. We have two mustangs and I think we'll probably get another one the next time as well. I don't see the reason so many people love Mustangs, but there it is. Her brother has a 65 Mustand that I must admit is rather nice. Still, no airconditioning, no power brakes, no power steering. It's a 289, but I'd rather have air conditioning in the So Cal summer. You can really tell the difference between folks who like sports and folks who like luxury. JE sees a manual transmission and thinks: AWESOME! I see it and think: EXTRA WORK!

At this point, I'm the one who needs a beer.

HAHAHA! This is a good one, Atreides.

You're better off reading Starship Troopers. The movie is a bit weak. Still, it's a great action film, I guess.

"Edit: I want to clarify that I was being facetious before: I do not support secession. At this time, anyway" I knew that, you goof! Since we're making admissions, I rather enjoy a lively debate. I just prefer it to be friendly. Can we have a friendly, lively debate?
