I've seen it about four times. The first time I watched it with a physics and maths buff, and between us we used to watch confusing/mind-fuck movies and have the most joyful of discussions/debates afterwards. Primer was written, iirc, by physics PhD students so the logic behind it, while confusing, is not erronerous. I agree that the audio is a bit poor (from what I remember), and there was a lack of subs *for an obvious reason* which didn't help. It's not a film to watch with a girlfriend, and not necessarily by yourself either. Probably best to watch stoned and/or with a physics buff :P La Haine! I only watched this a couple of months ago. Great movie!

*sees thread, skips to the end* AWESOME idea! If only someone had tried-but-failed it two years ago! Totally up for it. Seen primer plenty of times and downloaded Fountain recently as I've been dying to watch it... and I trust your movie taste so this should be good!

Just-baked pizza, right outside the oven. Topping-side down. TEN MINUTES OF MY LIEF WASTED! Also dropped a bowl of pasta I'd just cooked. A couple of times those muller corners have gotten out of my control. Once bought an expensive burger with loads of ingredients, took a bite and the majority of the thing fell out of the back of it, leaving me with bread and some salad. I'm very clumsy and drop/spill at least one thing a day. Today was the milk from the cereal bowl as I went to sit down.

did an entire module on 'digital fiction' which encomasses interactive fiction, text-based interactive fiction, digital text aand... other stuff I forget. Digital literature? Mostly the module was around the versatility of a digital-age piece of literature, but we came across a few more game-like pieces. When I get on my own laptop I may be able to provide a few links to some interesting things.

WhereareallthevideosReZ? and; Moogle is that puke on your face or what? It kinda looks like road rash...

loldraw. Can't complain. Dev values are between 9 and 15 across my team, with the majority sitting between 11 and 14!

"Adan Arreola has finally got some medicine for a grass allergy. As a consequence the player gains some form." ... lol.

A prestigious list! This year we've gone mental with picture. Which is awesome, of course. P.S. Oi!

I'd assume that it's not illegal at any age to watch porn, more that it is illegal to supply porn to a minor.

Seen that before - I think the downside is only having one weapon so if you're getting the kills up you're going to need to pick up a weapon, which is a bit of a lottery! But then again, I suppose if you just switch to riot shielding... it's effectively an attempt to merge two different types of class. Thinking about it, that has such potential... I may have to get a class with that (I'm picturing it'd be ace on Favela). AARG! Decided to do what shorty does and have a tactical nuke on 'just in case'... and FIRST game I get... 23 kill streak! Then I go and be a dick and aargh so close. Finished 35-6. Had another game where I finished 30-2 as well... dead chuffed with myself :P Derail, Underpass, quarry sub base and Terminal are my good maps currently, with Afghan and wasteland just not gonna happen with my current class (no explosives, no scopes!). Skidrow doesn't work either because the silenced TAR's range is precisely wrong. I pwn at flanking y'see, and the routes around that map are too long-winded and blah blah blah.

An upbeat short story that elaborates on the sentimental/spiritual idea behind my general belief,, which is similar to what Sheikah mentioned, above. This thread is really encompassing several different, yet interesting topics. Existentialism, death, paranoia and, seemingly, a bit of old-fashioned spirited teen angst to garnish it. But they are, duh, interconnected and it is hard to avoid swinging through them all. I'm surprised we haven't hit on morality yet. Anyway, in response to several people's fears of living a shit life/being forgotten/not existing; I find that while these anxieties may never go away, they fade with age because you are forced, through responsibilities and commitments, to worry about other smaller shit, thus taking your mind off of things. By existing, I find it very tricky to simply do what is done without questioning it. I find it hard to ever accept something is simple when, like the 'life' an atom has led since the dawn of the universe, there's just a lot more to things. RAR RAR WTF WARKWNFL I worry about my existence all the time. I don't (anymore) revolve the world around my own existence, rather I am hugely aware of the minds operating behind all those eyeballs you see daily. If the person on the till at tescos is rude to me, there's a reason for it, an intellectial thought process that is in itself concerned with its existence, so who am I to take offence? Who am I to put my own existence, my own emotional reaction, ahead of another's? I don't get paranoid (much...) anymore, but I do still spend a lot of my thought processes analysing what other people are thinking - trying to guess, i suppose, their reasoning or their emotional state. This essentially means I say things like "I think i've said this to you before" because I know what it's like when someone repeats a story they've told me, I'll think of what I want to say, then think of how to say it, then think of how it will sound, then think of how it could potentially be responded to, and try my best to not 'lose' out of my own error... if that makes any sense. I like getting drunk because it slows my thinking down. omigod there's far too much to talk about/go off on tangents on/ramblerambleramble. I want to post again later but more structured but the only thing I truly know about Future Me is that he is stunningly more lazy than Present Me. Have a medal.

So I started having an allergic reaction a couple of hours ago. In case you're not WIRED INTO THE N-E MAINFRAME, I've been rushed to hospital previously (cheers for the lift, Shorty!) as my face/mouth/tongue/throat were swelling. Usually these Special Events occur in the morning, after I'd eaten something dodgy the night before -- dodgy being MSG... Dodgy being one of London's finest Subway establishments. So where's the fail? I get home to find my mum has 'kindly' 'tidied' my 'mess'. Next to my bed I keep essentials; phone, wallet, keys, tobacco, diary, chess, money bank, buddha, hearing aid batteries, anti-histamine tablets. Yeah. Best bit? Clambering through the 'medicine cabinet' I wake my mum up, who is, admittedly, midly concerned, but clueless as to where my 'mess' has gone. Her solution for a potentially LIFE THREATENING moment? She returns with a pack of wet face wipes, saying "it's probably all that London on you." Urgh. Well luckily I had a nearby mate still on facebook, and I whizzed round there and... now I sit here, tired as fuck from the whole meet/hangover/no sleep and I'm essentially too afraid to fall asleep, in case etcetc. TL;DR? Well, can you think of any parenting fails you'd like to share? (ideally we'll hear a few from Odwin...)

Invite the dude back for a threesome! OR! ... Not on. I mean, it'd suck if it was your wife, but any girlfriend does that then she's out. If she tries to tempt you back into the relationship then I recommend writing up a contract for steaks and blowjobs.

Lol :P Just had a game on quarry where I got a triple kill as the first blood! Ended 30-10, which is probably the highest kill-count I've had for a fair old while. Also realised that essentially I don't bother with alternate classes (like I should). I'm also slowly understanding the blast shield! Woo!

ARNIEBOY you've been viewing this thread all day. I AM CALLING YOU OUT! Join usssss....

I think Lost would make for a perfect weekly/fortnightly magazine encyclopaedia - you know, the ones which are basically individual sheets with holes punched in that come with a weak glue binding them, that you separate and store in those folders? I must admit I'd be tempted to subsribe to one...

... was the correct answer! But seriously, scoop; that's who I was on about!

When you're up you'r street, you're massively up your street.

Noice! How much does it need to go for in order to equate to what you would've gotten for it with a trade-in?

That michael jordan/wayne gretzki/BO cartoon was awesommmm. I don't think I've guessed any (in my head) correct so far!

... wrong ambulance?! As for the hands thing... totally don't remember it. As if this was all yesterday. It already seems like such a long time ago already.

Cheers pooki. I was thinking when I made teh post "is it 75, or 140.... stupid memory. I think I was on a coupla grand and at the sheds section...

Niiice -- I just read this thread, having somehow missed it last time 'round. Did you ever do the wallpaper idea?

That was something I had started to do in my breaks... effectively go through the whole catalogue trying to tally up precisely how much money my Perfect Life would cost...

Playing the trial at the moment - love the atmosphere of it all. But I'm STUCK and I keep drowning the poor chap and I feel really sad. I might top-up on points and get this. But only if I can get past this bit and not get too annoyed. EDIT: BWAHAHA I AM SMARTER THAN YOU, GAME!! But seriously... awesum. ... ok so stuck again. Lols.
