  1. I watched the McGurk effect, and it didn't really work for me. I had to really strain to hear it any other way than what it actually was.
  2. I would like to be considered for entry into the cup.
  3. When i'm not at work, I will certainly do that. These things are fascinating.
  4. This is both amazing and weird. It's an audible illusion. Basically it sounds like it's getting lower and lower, but it actually isn't. Click on the sound bar to listen to a sample. Also, it says at the bottom that they used a sound like it for the sound of the Batpod in Batman as they wanted the sound of an engine which never changed 'gear' or tone, but constantly ascended. Awesome!
  5. Sounds pretty good. Might try and see it.
  6. Well i would put 2001 in the 'things everyone else likes, but i don't' thread, but i've not seen Silent Running. Is it similar?
  7. I wonder what the plot of Portal 3 will be. Surely they can't continue to have it in the Aperture labs? Maybe it could take place on the Moon!
  8. Watched both episodes last night. It was ok, but not great. I think there's enough there to warrent watching the rest of the season though. Mainly i though the problem was that the characters are a bit too generic, and there were too many clones. I.e, nerdy, socially awkward super-geek? Yes, two of them. Grumpy, lone-wolf who doesn't play well with others? Yep, two or possibly three of them. Why do they need two lab geeks? Why do they have The Cavalry and chiseled-jaw-dude being grumpy loner types? If they're going to go with cliched characters (which i don't have a problem with), why not use a full range? Like has been mentioned, i don't think there are enough likeable ones yet (apart from Phil) but that might change. I know it's easy to pick holes in this stuff but,
  9. Not sure if this will work.. This is a thread for any random thoughts you have, that aren't necessarily Good Stuff/Bad Stuff/Awesome Stuff. I'll start off with some examples: From the Questions Thread, "I used to think that 'embed' was pronounced 'emmned', like with a silent 'b'. No idea why, just the first time i saw it i thought - 'oh, emmned', and never looked back" Also, a thought i had while watching the Lotto program, If Chris Evans (the ginger one) took off his glasses, no-one would recognise him at all. In that respect he is very much like Clark Kent.
  10. Judging from the Dexter thread, i would put The Finale of Dexter here. It wasn't perfect, but i liked it. note: i did not say the final season, that was still balls.
  11. That doesn't sound very funny...
  12. I'm not sure if it's just me, but i can't see anything. I can't see your post in the Funny Stuff either @Goafer...
  13. That packaging seems a little....tentative to me. Not sure why but I c......oh, never mind.

    Introduction

    Why do they always have a full-stop as a signature as well?
  15. I used to think that 'embed' was pronounced 'emmned', like with a silent 'b'. No idea why, just the first time i saw it i thought - 'oh, emmned', and never looked back.
  16. Excellent, i'll probably do that since drag and drop doesn't work very well on a touchscreen phone.
  17. Dammit Dragoo! Didn't you get the memo? You were supposed to win 3-0!
  18. Flying through space on a shimmering comet of rainbow brilliance? I know.
