[QUOTE=The Boss][color=darkred][size=1] Agreed. Ofdensen is apparently some master of combat, because he jacked that other fellow up. Also, he's just a straight boss-type guy. One of my favorite quotes was from the episode when Rockso befriended Toki. After telling Rockso to leave, Ofdensen said to the henchmen: [b] "Put the boots to him, medium-style..."[/b] Which meant a mean stomping for Dr. Rockso outside the mansion. Rockso would later reply in a just as funny quote; [b] "Don't worry, Dr. Rockso just pullin' ya ch-ch-chain. But you did have my a** beat. And that ******* hurt!"[/b] Love the guy.[/color][/size][/QUOTE] Two of my favorite characters for the same reasons listed above. Dr. Rockso is just sadly funny. "I do cocain" lasted two weeks in my school, enough said. Just curious, would anyone else find waking up and finding a half-naked clown digging in your front pocket creepy or is it just me?

I've just got into the series Q-ko-chan:Earth Invader Girl and finished 2 volumes. The art wok was by Ueda Hajima(same person who did the FLCL manga) and i love the art style. The story is about a boy named Kirio comes across a girl who [spoiler] is an alien robot that can turn into a giant mech, which he uses to fight other alien beings. [/spoiler] I find this manga a bit more confusing than FLCL, but who knows, maybe it might make more sense the 4th time around. Well what kind of makes me angry about the whole series is that [spoiler] It's rumored to only be 2 volumes long. And the story really doesn't seem to come together well.[/spoiler] Overall, i don't really know why this manga sticks out to me. P.s. no clue is a thread already exists for this. Hey, we all have to make a gamble sometimes.

"There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you." is a good one from Zora Neale Hurston. She has a lot of them, you should look her up when you get a chance. As for my sig, it was something i've just thought of on the spot.

[QUOTE=Domon][SIZE=1]Okay, big whoop. Saddam's dead. Has that changed a thing over there? Have all the Suni and Shi'ia (sp?) put their weapons down and stopped killing each other? Answer: No and its getting worse over there, and yet our wonderful chimpanzee of a president is wanting to send MORE troops to Iraq. While I support our troops I've been against this war for awhile and I think its time we just gave the Iraqi government an ultimadeum. 1. Get your act together so we can leave and not have to lose more troops over there. OR 2. Go ahead and continue what your doing and we'll just leave now. Let your own people kill themselves. I know I sound cruel and unethical but I'm tired of seeing on the news that those freaking idiots over there just can't accept the fact that a new kind of government is going to be in power and that its trying to unite all religious sects under one flag. But do the people of Iraq really care? No, they're mindless, its like a big mob who doesn't know what the heck they're doing..... I mean seriously this execution did nothing to bring any kind of peace. Plus, we're sending more troops over already. My best friend who is like a brother to me has been sent over to Iraq and he's the same age as me! I'm tired of kids, yes kids being shipped over to that hell hole and getting killed. I mean those each person who is killed over there is someone's kid, father, mother, brother, sister, friend. I'm sorry but executing the man didn't work the way it was supposed to I guess because the violence has been on the rise and it shows no sign of letting up. Okay, I said my bit.[/SIZE][/QUOTE] Cruel yes, a bit of unneeded generalizations and name calling yes, but yes it does bring a really good point that we need to do what ever it needs to be done to get our people out and go back to focusing on bringing peace. I know we can't just can't tell our troops " jobs done, you are leaving home asap", but when can we expect an end to the war? Next year? Before the new decade i hope. I've seen the world trade center being bombed into on tv when i was 11. I don't want to see a day that i can actually be drafted into same war on terrorism. Really i just want an end of all the conflict. We know it's going to be a hard thing to accomplish, but how hard are we trying anyway?

[QUOTE=DeadSeraphim][size=1][color=indigo][font=arial] Right. Now we've got all your stupid romantic concepts out of the way, let's ask again: Be a cowardly, sneaky assassin who basically defies all concepts of Japanese honour and were despised as a result, or be a hated criminal who is seen as a savage by most on the mainland and lives a life of constant running from authorities, with the occasional scuffle and, eventually, death at sea or by hanging? Go on, choose. Really.[/font][/color][/size][/QUOTE] I'm going to go with option A: sneaky assassin defies all concepts of honor. I can actually live with being a scoundrel to an entire country. And last, killing in stealth with nobody realizing i was there sounds bad@$$, where can i pick up the orange jumpsuit?

artist- Mars Volta album- Amputechture [url]http://ec2.images-amazon.com/images/P/B000GPI1BO.01._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_V41379603_.jpg[/url] sorry, had trouble figuring out how to paste the picture up. Took me a while to figure out they are smuggling a giant baby. The art style of this album reminds me of the work of Diego Rivera, if he actually didn't do it. The album itself is pretty nice, but you kind of have to have a thing for long tracks. Viscera Eyes is probably my favorite rock song of all time now.

[QUOTE=nezzyjean] But whats even crueler is that my friend's dad thought that they should've waited until new years eve to do it, and then behead him, and watch it like the big ball dropping at midnight, except instead of watching a ball drop, you watch the guiottine fall. (he was just kidding thank god). [/QUOTE] That was funny in a way that made you feel like you were going to hell for laughing about it. But it might just be the quote for my new signature. Your dad's friends should look into stand-up, i'm kidding i'm kidding. Me myself couldn't possibly insist a cruel fate of a man, but it wasn't my choice and i didn't have to carry it out. That is the only comfort i have.

[QUOTE=PWNED]Your game is [U]Tales of the World: Summoner's Lineage[/U] which was released on the GBA. Now Mine is....... Be The Fighter Hint 1: Part of a long running series of fighting games that has only jumped to 3D in the last couple of years. Hint 2: A lot of characters in the first installment of the series were not original characters.[/QUOTE] I know for sure it's King of fighters. I'm a long time Iori fan. My turn i guess .......: the sun is in your hands hint1: it was a game that insisted you go outside for sunlight. hint2: old school metal gear solid gameplay

Yea the death penalty is a very odd thing to me. Believe it or not, it costs more to kill someone then to imprison them for life. So Ii kind of wonder what the point of it was, because it doesn't seem so well thought out. Some say as to be used as fear to prevent future acts from others. But with fanatics, him dead he's a Martyr( not really helping this whole war in Iraq deal). Torture would seem like the perfect solution, but it is considered inhumane. I guess a life sentence didn't cut it as a punishment. And before i go. When a man loves a woman.... I'm kidding I'm kidding :D

I would hope that my dreams and nightmares wouldn't come true. My dreams are usually kind of wacky and random. A lot of times i really don't remember a lot of them a little while after i wake up, so I'm planning on starting on writing them down as they come to me. I have a few weird dreams that i had recently and still remember. One dream I had, it was like i was actually in the games Gears of War. I was weaving in from rock to rock until i got to a corner. When i hit the corner, the Burger King king came out of nowhere and chain sawed me. Another dream i can remember is also for some reason video game related. My dream starts out by me falling in the dark for 50 feet. I land in my room and it's pitch black. I look out my window and i see a giant eyeball that started to light up my room. I realize it was a giant PS3 baby. The baby picks up my house and starts chanting my name. Last, it tries to shake me out of my room and eat me. I have no idea what meaning these dreams could possibly have and i kind of don't want to know. I kind of realize now that most of my dreams don't usually have people i know in them, but just me and my abstract mind. I guess a dream can tell a lot about a person

A few good posts have been made here and i thank you all. I would close this thread if i knew how, because well i didn't know there was already a five-paged thread on Myspace in the pc/mac forums. Again nice posts such as:[quote name='Retribution][size=1']I never understood why people were so opinionated on the issue. As if MySpace had some detrimental affect on their lives.[/size][/quote] which is pretty deep. Fill free to pm me to help me get my thread off. thanks. [COLOR=DarkRed][SIZE=1][INDENT]Actually it's a simple matter to just merge the two threads together like I just did instead of closing it. ;) ~indifference[/INDENT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[quote name='John']Myspace is an anachronism in the present-day internet. It throws out all the design tricks and aesthetics developed during the past half decade in exchange for hideous, cluttered page layouts that look to be ripped out of 1997, unleashes the horrible demon of auto-start music that had been caged for so long before, does absolutely nothing to promote organization or community amongst its members, has awful page loadtimes, and is owned and operated by a spam company. This last point provides the only reason that it managed to scrounge to the top of the social networking dogpile in the first place.[/quote] Come to think of it, Myspace is kind of a badly made site. One of my friends showed me her Myspace and her Msn site. The Msn one did look a lot prettier. Not that i'm going to make a Msn account either (same views i have apply to it as Myspace).

As for myself, i just don't want to make one. We know most people have one and my friends have been nagging me to get one, but i kinda just don't want to. I can't get a grasp of what i don't like about it. I don't know if it is just about worrying about putting up an image to appeal to others. Sure, i would just say screw it, but why waste the time to just be ridiculed? I'm just wondering how you all feel about myspace.

I like the Wii, even though i kind of favor the 360 more(solely cause of Gears of war) . The controller alone is going to be a legend. The motion sensor element of it might make it a must-have in the video industry. I played the Wii a little bit at my friends house with a few others. When we got around to playing Wii Sports bowling, i could of sworn one of my friends was throwing the control hard enough to send it into orbit. After my friend of calmed down a bit after watching his controller going mach 2 without a strap, he insisted that everyone to see the site wiihaveaproblem.com. This site is just a whole bunch of people who broke controllers and many things around them. Timeless.

[quote name='Kaise']It's not so much being single as it is have been single for 16 years. I've had enough patience to the point where i'm fed up. I've tried pulling myself out of them, but it's like quicksand for me.[/quote] In a way, i kinda feel where you are coming from. when I was 13, I was dumped by my gf after two months and was brain dead for three. Still today i have no idea what I was doing for those three months. I've spent most of my freshman year brooding and isolating myself from anyone who seemed to want to care about me. I didn't really get back into my cool laid-back self till 10th grade. Now that I'm 16, i realize all of it wasn't wroth it. Learning that being a nice guy isn't the best what to get a gf or keep one (not my word), why change myself to find one? I realize there are more important things to me like fighting elitism. Most of all i want to have fun and be who i want to be. Why let anything stop me?

[QUOTE=Engel][color=#AFF7234][size=1]If there's one place I could be, for the rest of my life, I'd really love to be in Minnesota right now. You're thinking, "What the flux, Minnesota?" Well, that's where the love of my life is living, and I don't think I've ever needed her more than I do right now, due to some really jacked up circumstances that has to do with my being stabbed with a pen twice. So yeah. If someone sends this little lovesick guy to Minnesota on a stroke of luck, I'll lick your shoes after you step in dog crap.

[COLOR=DarkRed][FONT=Georgia] As weird as this post may sound, i might have something to this. I guess it's best to explain how it all happened. After i had an akward conversation with a friend on yahoomsg and wacthed a little tv ( the new episode of Avatar was cool).I decided to have a few snacks. The snacks didn't fill me up so i decided to to make some ramen.The last bag of ramen. i've grown tired of the taste of ramen and i havn't had it in six months. Noone in my family went shopping yet , so it was the only thing around. Well on the bag it says ramen in three minutes, but i like to slow cook my ramen. I add hot suase tariaki and the flavor bag thinggy, then let it slow cook for 30 minutes(some poeple, meaning only i do, don't like their raman this way)! After i was done cooking my ramen, i put it in a nice china bowl. i relized i had to clean a fork because nobody did the dishes! i have my fork and put it in the bowl. i begin to walk back to my livingroom as my fork begins to fall. I try to grab it quick, but the bowl slips away from my fingers. I was crushed...no...NOOO... i stod and puased for a minute staring at it. All i saw was a broken bowl and ramen sitting there like an eviscerated intestant. i thought about the 5 second rule, but relized it was hopeless. i cleaned everything up and just went back to wacthing tv. the last bag of ramen, so much hard work.....damn. Somewhere i see a mediforical turning point in my life somehow. [/FONT][/COLOR] p.s. where's my spell check button?!

[COLOR=Red][FONT=Georgia]Some games i want to see made into animes are the soul calibur series, Dead or Alive, Halo, and Disaega. In the past we know that some fighting games didn't make such great movies and might of had made ok animes, but i think the intenseness of Dead or Alive and Soul calibur could make a nice action anime. Soul Calibur though might be a bit on the dramadic side. I really think they could make a nice side story to halo in an anime kinda like how they did animatrix. Disaega already has the manga/anime style to it and plus being FFtactics syle of game might make i pretty nice anime also.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[FONT=Georgia]I'm pretty sure a lot of us has seen a lot of anime(duh), so i hope there are others who know what i'm coming from. I can't be the only one who has seen Akira and say, "hey i know that voice", then relooks Trigun and says "OOH", then gets around to seeing Bleach and goes "oh i see a pattern". I'm not trying just picking on that voice actor or others,but i realize i can do this with a lot of other voice actors, Chrispin Freeman being one of my favorites (oddly kinda close to huey Freeman, off topic). Watching Hellsing i might be like "that guy has a tight voice", then i see a episode of Vandread and Big O then ask "So he's a transvestite?". I get the idea there aren't a lot of voice actors. Anyone ealse notice this?[/FONT]
