Can't say no to a good fist fight. Thats would just be rude of me now wouldn't it;)

[No Fear Man]

Yes! Today is a good day!

Made new friends here (sorta...I think...err...hope)....

My wife's truck passed inspection for another two years....

and my wife got an $80 rebate out of nowhere....I just bought Soul Calibur IV!!!!

What am I doing here....I'm taking the rest of the day off to play!!!

Actually....I'm going on vacation first thing tomorrow morning...so I should do the responsible thing and check with my boss and see if it's okay that I stop working early today and not go back to work until the 11th or something....


.....


....

Pauses...okay...I talked it over with myself and I said that I can take the rest of the day off....

My boss is good to me....

Yes I am






I think I'm schizo now....

[Bleach22]

... Hooray for holidays?

I MIGHT HAVE A JOB AT KFC. FUCKING BRUTAL.

XD

[charmed699]

That's fantastic and very nice to see someone new around here.Have a blast on that holiday No fear man. :)

Good luck with the KFC job mate.

[Bleach22]

Oooh, handing my CV in to Subway and KFC tomorrow. Epic.

I have my Basic Food Hygeine training, so I should be in good standing for a job. And this taking me so long to type, I had a bad pill and im pissed, bas crack.

[JasonA]

at least you have got your dignity and haven't tried McDonalds, everyone takes the piss out of McDonalds staff

[Bleach22]

Nah I woudlnt work in McDonalds, no offense to those who have.

[Chris]

I don't work at one or really know anyone that does, but what's wrong with Mcdonalds? Is it honestly any worse than any other fast food place?

[Bleach22]

I went round one with food tech because that was what our coursework was on. And you could just tell they'd do stuff to your food if you pissed them off a little.

Nope. They're all exactly the same.

I wasn't saying that. I was saying that about all fast food really, apart from Subway. I might be working at Subway ^_^

[charmed699]

Well whatever you end up working in the most important is that your trying really hard to get a job to have some extra money with hard work. :)

It is so hard to find a part time in London as well so I definetly know what you mean Bleach! At least sometimes I get these small jobs where I go and talk in those focus groups for marketing for a few hours and earn some extra cash. :P

You cant compare all gun owners, like me, to some crazy who lost his marbles and started killing people. And, guns didnt cause the killings...if he wanted to do what he did bad enough he would have used whatever he had available. Next time im pulled over for speeding i'll remember to tell the cop that it was my car who was going 75 in a 50 zone not me!!! 8)7

But you wouldn't be reaching 75 in a 50 zone if it wasn't for the fact you had a car.

[toyota4x4]

I guess... but the bottom line is it would still be MY choice. Its an individuals choice to harm others, no matter what means he chooses to do so.

Also worth bearing in mind that a gun's prime function is killing, a car is a method of transportation.

[Chris]

guys, I just said that to start shit.

[whatev]

Also worth bearing in mind that a gun's prime function is killing, a car is a method of transportation.

I agree 100%. There is no need on God's Green Earth that any human needs a handgun or assualt rifle. Their one and only purpose is for killing other humans.

In America, it's hard to argue that hicks can't have their hunting guns ... (shotguns, rifles etc.) There's too god damn many hunters to ever win that battle.

Sometimes I wish America wasn't so spacious ... then we woudn't have all these isolated stupid pockets (like the one G. W. Bush came out of), and could do things that make sense for the masses, in today's society.

[Chris]

I want everyone to carry a gun in college.

How many people are going to start shit if they know everyone can defend themselves?

[Bleach22]

[toyota4x4]

Yes I know you just said that to start shit and good job. As for the quote here I agree 100%. Just think if someone at VaTech would have been carrying, that crazy ass may not have hurt so many people. I would hate to be in that situation, someone storms in with a gun intent on killing you and all you can do is sit at your desk in the classroom and not protect yourself. Oh and my guns are not for killing...there carried for protection and sport (some of them anyways). Its not my fault someone may force me to shoot them.

Have you ever read Lord of the Flies?

[charmed699]

That is really sad about that poor boy just riding on a bus and having some horrible death for no apparent reason. That man must be a professional butcher or something to even have time to do that to his head and why didnt anyone on the bus did anything?:(

Anyway here is someone with a gun that wont kill anyone!

[HylianHitman]

The gun looks kinda gay, but I like what they've done with the rest of it.

[toyota4x4]

Have you ever read Lord of the Flies?

Never read the book but in film class we watched the black and white film version from the 60s. You should have seen our weird film teacher I think he got off to those old boring movies. :?

[_Chris_]

Or if guns were not legal in the first place it would have been a shitload harder for some fucknut to get his hands on one...
The fact of the matter is guns are made for killing, if they were not legal none of the crazy people would have got the fucking things in the first place to shoot up anyone. You can argue that people who REALLY want them will find a way, but it will be so much harder, most people wouldn't bother. Yes you would have guncrime, everywhere fucking does, but it would be a fraction of the amount you guys have now.

You have guns for sport and protection, but from a sellers perspective what differentiates you from the person behind you in line who secretly wants to go shoot up a school? Nothing, people can hide certain amounts of insanity, you just cant tell these days who's gonna switch and kill you and who isn't. Get rid of them all, yeah the hicks will get pissed, so will the hunters, but you people who only own guns for "protection" should be overjoyed, you're need to carry a deadly weapon just to keep safe just dropped, a LOT. now you don't need one. GREAT!

I agree! People of course argue that people who want to get the guns will get them ... but if you can count on 10 years in the slammer if you're caught with a gun ... I would bet my life violent crime would drop substantially.

Unfortunately people from the south and hicks nationwide will always be able to have their guns, and us Americans have you folks across the pond to blame (well, your ancestors).

The right to bear arms and the right to a standing militia are in our constitution because of the restrictions that were placed on the colonies 200 some odd years ago.

I'd love to think that the American congress could look at then and look at now and realize that the situation is very different now and we could ammend this constitution ... unfortunately that just won't happen in the near future. Maybe once we develop peronal bubble shields. ;)

Didn't you know? Your congress only seeks to amend your constitution when it erodes your civil liberties.

[Rossko_UK]

If the American law changed and outlawed guns, how would they ever go about getting every owner to hand their gun in? Money incentives? Tax shoots up. Ask them to be honest? Fat chance. Seach every house? Waste of resources.

Seems like it'd be one hell of a effort to enforce such a policy.

[Fanappy]

They would have to repeal the right to protect your property and convince the gun lobby who hold majority votes be to much effort

[Chris]

Yes. It's much more complicated than "Ban guns and everything will be O K!"

Oh, and I'm serious about that college statement. Since everyone in here has to get over the fact that guns are legal in the US, don't you think people should defend against other insane fucks with guns?

[Bleach22]

Woot, buying another Dreamcast today if GameStation have any in. Set mine up and noticed the disc drive had gone on it :( I have a limited edition one (Not going to say what it is XD) but thats never been opened.

[HylianHitman]

You're getting another? What happened to the first one?

[charmed699]

I nearly died when mine started rebooting as well Bleach but all you have to do if you want to keep using that limited edition Dreamcast is to buy another and swap the laser and/or power supply.

I had to swap both on mine with spare parts from another and now it works. If anyone wants to know why it was because PSO keeps online records specifically for each console so if I used my files on another dreamcast I could never go online with the characters from that dreamcast.

You wouldn't happen to have one of those cool Hello kitty or Sakura Taisen limited editions would you?

[The_Glovner]

Yes. It's much more complicated than "Ban guns and everything will be O K!"

Oh, and I'm serious about that college statement. Since everyone in here has to get over the fact that guns are legal in the US, don't you think people should defend against other insane fucks with guns?

You do realise that guns are legal in the UK? Just that they are legal to the people that require them for a legitimate reason so that kinda stops the insane fucks (for the most part) in getting guns in the first place.

[Bleach22]

WOOOOO! Subway training next Monday! And if I don't get the job there, Game said they should have positions opening soon too :D

I'm so excited.

And, if anyone wants to check them out ¬_¬ I have new photos on flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/acidox/

AND. Newcastle GameStation have a Dreamcast in ^_^ So it looks like i'll be back on JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Phantasy Star Online in no time :D

[The_Glovner]

Got to say I preferred Jimmy Johns or Quiznos to Subway but like everything else that makes it's way over here we get the shit ones first.

[HylianHitman]

Heh, if I were to ask for a job in a shop I'd be told there's no vacancies, haha.

Oh it would nver happen ... not only is a logistical impossibility, but the gun lobbys are much too strong in the US. Something like that would cause a second civil war.

But it would be nice.

[HylianHitman]

If there weren't so many guns, people would start using knives.

[toyota4x4]

If there weren't so many guns, people would start using knives.

Exactly!!! And if there were no knives people would use bats, rakes, bottles and whatever else they could find. And when all hardware ran out theyd just pick up sticks and rocks and harm others. Thats what ive been screamin here about this topic all along...it dosnt matter the tool, if a crazy wants to harm others they will do it with whatever is available. If I knew how to post picks id post some of my guns just for novelty and show you brits that some people can have them and be safe with them.

[Chris]

I understand the need for guns, but I don't own any.

[whatev]

If there weren't so many guns, people would start using knives.

People couldn't go on 33 people killing sprees with only knives ... did you play GTA:3?

Maybe a katana ... or Lunar Staff.

[HylianHitman]

Well, sure. If a gun isn't available to a killer, they'll use a knife instead or some kind of battering weapon. They might not be able to kill 33 people but they might kill 3.

[whatev]

If I knew how to post picks id post some of my guns just for novelty and show you brits that some people can have them and be safe with them.

I would even venture to say most people are safe ... I just wish our firearms laws in the states were a lot more strict.

I live in Omaha, and recently some crazay got an AK from his parents and killed 8 people. GTA style. Crazies should not have easy access to those kinds of weapons. Do you really need an AK for hunting? Where's the sport in that? That's like fishing with dynamite.

The people who gave him access to that gun should be put in prison for a long time ... instead, there isn't even a crime to charge them with. I'll give you the fact that if people are licensed, they should be able to have their guns. But there is hardly any retribution when kids steal guns out of their parents gun safes b/c they know the code. The shit is just to laxed. how many Columbine/Va Techs/Westroads massacres are going to happen before we tighten up our laws?

Well, sure. If a gun isn't available to a killer, they'll use a knife instead or some kind of battering weapon. They might not be able to kill 33 people but they might kill 3.

Which to me is a vast improvement.

I feel its more the parents fault for how there kids act and behave in the world. I was taught by mine, but I also hunt alot so I know how dangerous guns or other things can be. Take alcohol and drugs for example...if a child grows up and for years sees his parents drinking and taking drugs, then when the child grows up he/she will be more likely to follow that same path cause the parents didnt teach right and wrong. But like other things, one parents views on right and wrong wont be the same as anothers so whos to say really.

So what you're saying is if a child's parent kills people, he/she is more likely to do so? Bad analogy.

My point is tightening up gun laws, making it harder to get guns, and dolling stricter penalties when law abiding citizens allow their guns to get into the wrong hands. History has proven that we can't rely on parents moral fibre to keep their firearms out of their children's hands ... maybe the fear of serious jailtime would make it happen.

[toyota4x4]

Yep exactly what I was saying.

Im done with this topic...everyone on here thinks diffrent and this could go on for days. Plus im from the south so I have diffrent ideas about most things and guns are one of them.

Congratulations brother! The first step towards recovery is admitting you have a problem. You're on the road to recovery!

;)

[Ivan Joidherpus]

Morality is nothing more than a compass. It is viewed differently, by different people. Laws, regulations, by-laws and social accetance (see: toyota4x4 and his self directed comment about being from 'the south' as altering one's opinion) can help to FORM our individual compasses (compi? whatever....) but not dictate how we use it.

Policy and legilation cannot and will not stop gun violence.

It will make it difficult for guys like ME to purchase and own a handgun, but "Johnny Crack Dealer" hustling his block will STILL find his gun.

If making something illegal would simply "Solve" the purported problem the we wouldn't have any drug bags on our streets, we wouldn't have beheadings on a greyhound bus, we wouldn't have neglegent foster parents choking the children they're to care for. We wouldn't hve things like insurance fraud, bank robberies, drunk driving, child molestation or even something as seemingly insignificant as speeding. These are all acts which are plainly classed as ILLEGAL, yet they continue to happen.

Don't be naive. An outright ban on handguns wouldn't chagne a thing. Were it only that easy, it would've happened by now.........

[Ivan Joidherpus]

I thought beheading a guy was already illegal.

last I checked, yes, it is illegal to cut someones head off. My point was if outlawing an act could simply prevent it from ever happening again then it would've happened by now, because nobody, NOBODY, including law abiding gun owners wants to see an innocent person get shot.

The behaeding comment was a touch of hyberpole on my part, but it wasn't just a random act of violence I choose. This happened here in Canada late last week and some of you may have read about this. After all, this kind of thing doesn't happen in the civilized world everyday. The middle east, to religious dissidents, Ok, but some random dude on a bus going home? c'mon..... not right. And the act is completely illegal, yet it happened......go figure, eh?

An outright ban on handguns won't stop gang-land shootings.

Ross? Rival? Curry? Shed any light on this?

Seems he is not coming back. He's set his profile so he cannot receive PMs from anyone including admins, and has changed his registration email to solongfarewellfromukjay@*************** where "*" are two words but for the sake of not leaking private data I won't show.

Another hissy fit, suicide attempt or just left? You decide.

[Fanappy]

Oh the lack of an xbox has gotten to him I'm sure he will be back when he has given COD4 so good lovin' ;)

[HylianHitman]

Well, I'm not sure why we need to babysit him. He'll be back.

[Fanappy]

Lol cos we all like him well most of us lol!!! So does anyone know where I could get a HDdvd/Blu ray player (as in an all in one)

[_Chris_]

Well, I'm not sure why we need to babysit him. He'll be back.

Whos babysitting? I would ask if any regular member disappeared from the member list and stopped posting. I did with Trigg, I'd do it if you randomly went. Its simply general interest.

[HylianHitman]

Yeah, but we know why Trigger left. And Jay's left loads of times.

[_Chris_]

We know why Trigger left? I swear he just disappeared into the night...?

And the fact still remains, is ANY regular member left people would wonder where they went. I don't see why thats difficult for you to understand?

[HylianHitman]

No, I understand. I'm still doubtful he'll be gone for long though.

Oh and Trigger left because he was wrong about CoD4.

[Rossko_UK]

He was "wrong" about CoD 4? What are you referring to?

[_Chris_]

Yeah... What?

[HylianHitman]

Remember how Trig said Halo 3 would crush CoD4, and that it wouldn't make the top 10 played Live games until like January or something?

[_Chris_]

Yeah but i just checked his last few posts, had nothing to do with it, if thats the reason he left, he said it, carried on like normal then just went one day as if nothing happened...

[Fanappy]

Eh??? He left over that!!!

Soo Gemma Atkinson will be in C&C3 :D

[Rival24]

Very fucking hot indeed (http://armchairtalkinghead.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/gemma-atkinson.jpg) :9~

I think Trigger got arrested, murdered, raped or sent back to school by his mum.

[_Chris_]

Okay, i've spoken to Jay, he changed things cause he was pissed his 360 was gone, now he cant change none of his stuff back nor log on, he said hes tried requesting password changes but nothings happened... So Could one of you admins change the password for him and either e-mail it to him, send it to his gamercard or send me the password and i'll pass it on to him.

[Rival24]

Jeez what a wanker... I'll see what I can do...

YES JAY CAN YOU READ THIS?!!! :P

[The_Glovner]

Fucking wanker pussies!

[charmed699]

Hey guys,

Like Chris said Jason was a bit unlucky because his new password still has not been emailed to him and so he can't log in. He said that he can't log in due to the new password not being emailed to him and so that is the only reason why he hasn't come here in a while. :)

I guess if one of the nice administrators could help him, that then that would be really handy.

[whatev]

Nevermind.

Maybe Jat left b/c Halo3 is back ontop for the third straight week?

Can't he just close out of xboxic for a few days? Why the extremes?

[Bleach22]

The extremes is because people havn't been playing enough Dreamcast.

I'm telling you.

[charmed699]

Dont worry Bleach because I certainly play enough hours for me and a lot more people. I still remember sometimes being up most of the night playing PSO online with some friends and going all the way from the forest to the ruins and killing Dark Falz with my fonewm... :P


I am glad to see someone else that likes the Dreamcast a lot like me actualy. :)

[The_Glovner]

....PSO online...

So........ is that like Phantasy Star Online Online then?8)7

[JasonA]

phew....

back later and I'll explain...lol my xbox is back too...\o/
no i didnt leave... no ones upset me, no hissy, no suicide... no extremes...

just called late night profile editing... wanted to put xbox fucked in the gamertag thing here, and it didn't allow it, everything went blank and I saved it.

also I have a new CoD5 avatar to put on in a bit.

It's probably not gonna be the Halo news. Jay is super-duper excited for CoD5 now.

so is it myspace or facebook

[Bloboss3000]

i think he has accounts on both myspace and facebook, i dont think you can link you facebook profile, but dont quote me on that

[JasonA]

maybe it's myface or spacebook

[HylianHitman]

His post says Facebook, but his link says Myspace.

[Bloboss3000]

His post says Facebook, but his link says Myspace.


thats because he cant link the facebook profile, like i said i think you have to add them as a friend before you can view it

[HylianHitman]

Damnit I'm trying to be funny here!

[Fetter]

They are two seperate things. I didn't know what to put up for my facebook page.

[The_Glovner]

They are two seperate things. I didn't know what to put up for my facebook page.

I've added you on both.

Well I think I added you on Facebook, are you the Rob Fetterhoff in Buffalo? Or the one with no picture or details at all?

Fuck it, i've added both.

[_Chris_]

Hello Giff, you're not on here much.. Wheres Jamie these days?


Oh and facebook eh? Anyone wanna add me i'm Chris Gardner, i'll be the only one in a pic with long red and purple hair, not exactly hard to miss;)

Watch me get bare adds from random people who havnt even registered

[charmed699]

Your entourage of groupies will floood your facebook with friend requests pretty soon then Chris. :)

I do have a myspace because a friend from college kept pestering me to make one and a facebook one because of the Assassin, so I will add you guys... :P

[HylianHitman]

What subject is it you're doing in college Diogo?

[Fanappy]

Does anyone else find those subway adverts incredibly annoying???

lol. it's sad yet so true.

[charmed699]

I finished last year in August already HylianHitman but I was doing a BTEC National Diploma in IT.

What kind of character did you play as in PSO Bleach? I got one for each of the 3 VMU I own so a Force Fonewm, Hunter Humar and a Ranger Ramar.Also finally managed to get a cheap copy of 24 hours le mans PAL version this week on ebay for £5! :)

[HylianHitman]

It's a good thing you finally sorted out those guys. They were definitely having their way with the forum.

Oh man Diogo, are you playing Sonic the Hedgehog again?

[charmed699]

I am because I will get every S grade and those coins someday! :P

I really want to get Braid but don't have points or money...

[HylianHitman]

I got all the S grades easily.

[Fetter]

I've added you on both.

Well I think I added you on Facebook, are you the Rob Fetterhoff in Buffalo? Or the one with no picture or details at all?

Fuck it, i've added both.

Buffalo, hell ya.

Wait... there's another on there?

[The_Glovner]

Buffalo, hell ya.

Wait... there's another on there?

Yeah, might be a dead account though if you fucked up creating one before or something, no picture, no location just the same name.

I'm on as Chris Glover for anyone thats interested, and the Myspace is that link in my sig.

[charmed699]

I can't get S on Kingdom Valley and Crysis city with Sonic because of the high speed section in the end! That bloody tornado keeps baffling me and I keep hitting the pipes.I can't believe you done everything as well which is just incredible!! :P

You should have an invite from me on myspace Fetter.

[Bleach22]

I played as a few characters, back in the day my best was a Ramar, can't remember the gear and weapons I had though :(

I just found a... 'way'... to get the PAL version, so i'm happy ^_^ And I think Sega send out the keys if you say that you had to get a new Dreamcast due to yours breaking (Allthough I would need a Broadband Adapter from eBay which are usually £50-£70.) and there are still quite a few people on PSO apparently.

[charmed699]

Well I used to get a lot of people those keys from SEGA but they shut down the official servers about 2 years ago so not sure if you could get one. There is an unofficial server to play but I never tried it. If your still interested then search for onlineconsoles and it should bring up a very helpful website.

I do have one of those broadband adapter and it did cost me £70 something years ago. I wouldn't mind joining you but just not sure on how secure the server is and dont want to get my characters corrupted or something like that. I still play offline from time to time anyway like last month I did the whole story levels on very hard with my Fonewm.

I do miss playing Ultimate with the help of some friends that had higher level characters than me though. Did you play on just the first PSO or did you get Version 2 because that has a lot of nice extras! :)

If you get the BBA then there are a few other online games that work too like Quake 3.

It's not me that's incredible, it's that game's incredibly awful control system!

[Bloboss3000]

actually im on here quite alot, just dont really sign on and contribut much. and as for jamie, hes on the xbox quite alot. just i havnt seen him on here

Yeah, i've used that server for PSO Blue Burst and it's quite good actually, not sure how many people use it for DC but a lot use it for BB.

And yeah I heard Quake was still up, something about a few servers in Spain I think which sounds good, used to love playing Q3A online.

[charmed699]

That is brilliant then as you already got experience with how the server works then and I think people will problably still be playing Quake 3 online on Dreamcast for many years to come. :P

There are actualy a few more games but it is annoying because you need dial up to play them! I have them all like 4x4 evo and maximum pool but can never play. :)

They have pre owned nintendo 64 and playstation consoles with really good games at GAMe now cheap!!! What is annoying is I can't buy even if I would like to play final fantasy 7 and 8. :P

[Bleach22]

I have a lot of older consoles (Some rare) as I went through a stage of buying them for cheap sometimes on eBay or Lik-Sang/Play-Asia.

And yeah, I check that DC Online site and saw a few games were running with them I think (Not official servers) which is good, and you can bridge your connection from your PC to DC (Said to only work with Win 98, pmsl) but it seems a bit of a faff on.

[The_Glovner]

[No Fear Man]

I'm back from vacation!

However....I didn't have time to up my gamerscore like I wanted to....however I did add about 700 points to it....lol

[JasonA]

Where are you from and did you go anywhere nice...

[No Fear Man]

Where are you from and did you go anywhere nice...

I live in NJ, United States. Every weekend I go away to a camping resort that I've been going to for 19 years. About 2 years ago I bought my own site and trailer there to camp in and stopped staying with my parents or my friends. So the first full week of August each year my wife and I stay there for the whole week instead of just the weekends. It's also the week of the NJ State Fair so we go see that as well.....and we went to Hershey Park. I had never actually been there before....and I'm a roller coaster nut so that was nice.

[Chris]

Every weekend? good lord

[Bleach22]

Woooooo, got my trial shift at Subway from 3 til 8 :D

And weirdly enough, the subway advert just came on whilst writing this XD

[Ivan Joidherpus]

He lives in New Jersey.
I'd do whatever I could to get away from it every weekend too!

[No Fear Man]

The camping resort I go to is IN New Jersey. I love how everyone stereotypes what they think of NJ by what they saw on the Sopranos. I live in an area of NJ that is mostly mountains and forests, and then I go further north to the farm lands and forests of Sussex County when I go to the resort. The areas of NJ that you want to stay away from are central jersey...and just a teeny bit north of that in Paterson and Newark. Where I live you can sleep in your front yard covered in diamonds and bags of cash and nobody would bother you....and there's no smog either.

[Ivan Joidherpus]

lol, just messing with ya big dude.

But in fairness, I'm not using the Sopranos to judge NJ. I'm thinking of the crappy drive through the Meadowlands to see a NJ Devils game a few years back.
ugh.....

No, but I have been in a situation of sitting on the pan spraying water out my arse while spewing in the sink.

Was a bit scared when it was happening, I thought if both orifices were open at the same time expeling liquid there was a chance I might implode, luckily not and I am still here and able to type this.

[Ivan Joidherpus]

No, but I have been in a situation of sitting on the pan spraying water out my arse while spewing in the sink.

The dreaded Puerto Plata Splatta'?
Maybe its Montezuma's revenge?
Perhaps a stomache virus/flu?

nah, he's a Scot, I'm betting some form of brown booze was the cause.

and I lol'd at the description. Water out the bum, CLASSIC!!!!

If it was the booze then it could have only been the last pint that was a bad one, the 8 before it tasted fine.

sadly yes ...

and I have also puked whilst crapping, though I wisely grabbed the trash can. Thank you Jagermeister.

I must say Glovner puking in the sink while stuff is coming out your ass doesn't seem to condusive to getting said ass water into the toilet ... bet that was a fun morning!

My puking toilet also has a bath right next to it, so should the occasion occur when I need to both shit and puke, I will be absolutely fine, as I only have to lean a little bit.

[nofear360]

Same here, but I'd have to be sitting sideways.

[whatev]

That's where I'm confused ... you are either seven feet tall, have a 1/2 tall meter sink, or a 1.5 meter tall foot toilet ... otherwise either puke or asswater is going to miss it's target. No?

Keep in mind we're talking simultaneous expulsion of juices here.

[Ivan Joidherpus]

well, this certainly takes the cake for "Most disgusting offtopic discussion in an Internet Thread" for 2008.

Look at what you've started Glovner. I mean, we all knew you were full of shit, but this is rediculous!!! :P

(though thinking about it now, if the bum water was flowing like you say, you'd be substantially LESS full of shit today.....hahahaha I made a lol).

[Bleach22]

Im trying to think if I have ever shit & puked at the same time...possibly when I had food poisoning, but on all occassions I think one or the other didn't go where it was supposed too.

The sink is right beside the toilet, only bad point about it was I had to remove the chunks with my fingers as they wouldn't wash down the plughole.

[Bleach22]

Jagermeister is niiiiiice ^_^

[wakeboardnmoto]

UGH this brings back memories of a party I threw a couple months back *shivers*
someone passed out in the bathroom and managed to miss both the toilet for their shit, AND the sink for their puke :r

I sadly had to clean it up the next morning :(

I WANT ANSWERS!~

:X :o :-(

[The_Glovner]

Toilet is roughly 1/2 metre high.
Sink is roughly 1 metre high

Sink is located directly beside the toilet.

So while anally anchored to the seat it is possible to twist your body without letting to much space occur between arse and pan to allow your neck to stretch over the rim of the sink and fill with beer flavoured vegetable chunks.

[No Fear Man]

Maybe I shouldn't have asked?

LMAO

Anyways....just a severe headache today, migraine classification, however no severe vomiting.....that's a plus.

I'm playing Bioshock. I must admit, it's been a bit hard for me. Not because of difficulty or anything. I've got a bit of a thing about needles, and about anything happening to my hands or wrists. I shall persevere though.

[The_Glovner]

Finished Braid with all the puzzles and all 8 stars!!!

Eat that right out my ass motherfuckers!

Having said which, doesn't seem like anyone even has it.

[Chris]

beat it, just didn't do the time trials yet.

[The_Glovner]

beat it, just didn't do the time trials yet.

Did you get the 8 stars as well?

Serious fucking hassle to get for the most unrewarding prize ever. Don't even get an achievement.

But at least I can say I got them.

[Rival24]

No achievement? Not worth my time :(

[The_Glovner]

Nope, nothing like that you get:

A fucking constellation visable in the first screen!!!! And thats fucking it!!And to get the first star alone you need to wait about 2 fucking hours for a pretty fucking picture

[Chris]

I didn't get them. Can you get them after you put the puzzles together? Can you take the puzzles apart?

[The_Glovner]

I didn't get them. Can you get them after you put the puzzles together? Can you take the puzzles apart?


Fraid not:

You can get all of them except the one in the room with the doors to the different worlds. You need the second puzzle to be unfinished and you need to get the two corner bits of the puzzle. You fit them together to to make the bottom of a star and line them up with the point at the window above the picture to reveal the star. You then use th platform from the first picture to get yourself up to jump over and get it. But if you have already completed puzzle two its back to the start if you want the stars.

You would be surprised how quick you do things second time round though.

[Chris]

I wish you could have two choices for that last 15gp.

1. Time Trials
OR!
2. 8 stars

Then I'd be more willing to get them

[screamidge]

omg i cant wait for the force unleashed demo :o

I know! Until the news came i was checking the marketplace every few fucking hours... Roll on Thursday!!!

Yeah, that's a pretty solid deal. I used to sel computers at Best Buy, so I have mad street creds (http://www.explosm.net/db/files/Comics/Rob/streetcred.png) when it comes to Consumer Electronics.

The only drawback is no bluetooth, but there are dongles for that ... but 440G HD, super fast mobile processor, 4 GB of RAM, 1 GB of VRAM ... that's a powerful machine bro. It will pwn Vista ... I would recommend it! Toshiba is also very highly rated when it comes to laptops. That's a generic statement, and reliability and stuff like that can vary from model to model, but overall Toshiba has a very good reputation.

I don't think there is an awful lot you can do with it... it's either some new electrical equipment, nice clothes blah blah... maybe if you have any credit cards pay them all off...or just leave it sat in the bank until you think "ah I really should buy that..."

Possibly Playstation PSP-3000

Yeah I'll wait for the 3000 version before jumping on board, I'd feel rather stupid picking up a 2000 series when the 3000 has been announced just yesterday and warning me!

Also why have you dubbed it PSP2? Technically this is the third revision of the hardware, but there's nothing hugely different to warrant a number anyway?

Another site that I first read about it had referred to it as PSP2 but I wasn't under any impression it was much different other than a few hardware tweaks here and there, Im pretty sure an improved next-gen version will be with us eventually in the next 2 years though.

Nice haul.

I'd go for expensive dinner in some new clothes, then probably hold onto the rest if my CC balance was clear.

He passed them all. Even an F grade counts as a pass.

[Bleach22]

Yep.

It's just most employers like to see C and above, but D isn't too bad really.

So what's the next plan... College or A-Levels..

[H1tchman]

I won £1750 on a horse last night \o/

I have nothing to spend it on though, so I'm open to reasonable suggestions (if you suggest prostitute, everyone bagged that at work already, so try and be original!).

I would buy myself a nice set of golf clubs, then a years membership to the nearest golf course. That's exactly what i've just done and i'm really enjoying it. It's nice to get out of the house at weekends now instead of just decomposing on my sofa.

Maybe spend some of your winnings on a holiday?

Helloo Ross,
I am a Nigerian prince, witha tremendous amount of wealth. Due to government corruption, I will be fleeing the country and will need your assitance in getting my funds out of Africa.

Please send by Western Union to myself in Nigeria $1500 and then I can proceed to send you the remainder of my families fortune.

Thanks you, and God bless.

Awww I'll go! Especially if you're paying!

Completely offtopic, do you guys know/work with anybody that you just can't stand to look at? Either due to some facial nastyness or dental deformity? I feel freakin terrible about it, but I can't stand to look at some of these people.

it's not that I can't stand to look, it's that I can't help but stare :'(

Like a she-lady balding spot, or (especially) facial hair and hair growing out of moles.

ooo, or large people in skin tight pants, that's a fun one too... gunt-o-riffic. I don't stare though, in those cases then yes - I can't stand to look.

Oh makes more sense now I actually recieved a letter from someone in China telling me I could get 10% of £20milllion if I said I was related to someone with the same name as me tbh the should have offered me the £18mill and taken the £2 mill for themselves :P

No disc drive? Why would you buy a laptop without one? Do you have a Macbook Air or something?

[Fanappy]

Well I have a desktop pc and I also have and Advent 4211 (which is on the MSI Wind (www.msiwind.net) Chassis) I use it for surfing the web and work as I have to commute from my home to college so I needed the smallest laptop I could use I did have an Asus EEE pc but 7" screen was to hard to use for word processing and long use!
