  1. Gotta love the video for it. *doesn't really know what else to say but doesn't want to press BACK on his browser*
  2. So here's the new challenge. Answer these questions three as honestly as you like. I was going to do some more questions but I kinda couldn't be botehred. instead... The next poster adds a further question and answers it as well as teh previous ones. If you've already posted and want to answer a new question then DO, so long as you post another question. What was the last thing you did that you're proud of? I passed out twice last night. MAYBE THREE TIMES. When was the last time you were embarassed? Wait.. Should the above have gone in here? Last time I was embarassed was.. two days ago. Unfortunately I am too scared to share it. Feel free to share yours though. Do you have an ambition in life? To have at least two kids, a border collie dog, a ford escort. Also to watch as many movies as I can. OK! I hope this works and doesn't become too much work. Get groovy.
  3. Why must the debate over ethics stop? Half the people are saying that this is obviously a wrong thing to do, the other half are (probably) playing devil's advocate. They're just defending the differences you will actually find in the world. As CTG said on page one (i think), we don't force our monogamous way of life onto those middle-eastern cultures where it's socially acceptable to have up to eight wives, or whatever. Sure, it's obvious to most people (especially in our western world) that this is downright cruel, but think about the way these people live. They're a small island controlled by an overseas government on the other side of the world. You think they're well off? They have fricking stray dogs roaming the streets, what about their human rights? May I point out NOW that I don't like this animal cruelty either, and may I also point out that I'm not too bothered arguing the case for relativist ethics (yes, I've just started studying AS Ethics/philosophy, sue me) because forcing my view that you can't force your views on others is kinda hypocritical. I'm just forcing my view that you should listen to what each other and, in particular, what Wes has been saying. Perhaps remembering the unwritten rules of debate would help you too -- Don't put someone else down just because you have a difference of opinion. I guess that covers slagging off the french. SO yeah, i don't give a shit what your argument is for anything, it's just the manner you go about sharing it with others (and me) that matters most.
  4. Hardcore. BESTGAMEEVER.
  5. Dongle is my new favourite non-word.
  6. A psychoanalyst could have a field day with you :P
  7. Good: Healthier food! Healthier Kids! etc etc. Bad: too late to affect me, and maybe kids will just buy more food from nearby shops? Ugly: Doesn't mean the food will actually be any better, the companies who make the food will just.. take out the salt and sugar i guess. Food could just end up tasting worse, no?
  8. YYYeesh I stole this from someone who posted it on the other forum once. Or something. I have... a [clean] jam jar with 15 bottle caps in; a [clean] salsa pot with a spork, magnifying glass, two pairs of compasses, a penknife, an empty poppers bottle and a screwed up post-it note in it; a pile of scratched copied CD's that I used to have stuck to my wall, a roll of masking tape, an old ink-jar with a bunch of pencils in, 9 wine corks, about 0.64 euro cents, a stub of my airticket to purtugal, my homework diary, two copies of my timetable, Hunter S. Thompson - Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, a stack of blank CD's, Finch - What It Is To Burn, mobile, F. Scott Fitzgerald - The Great Gatsby, my 'book', a card with my sorting code and account number on, a list of things i had to remember, and my mouseball because my mouse sucks and I use my finger instead of the ball. Oh and a tin of Hand Baked Biscuits from Boscombe, with a postcard from the same place. GO YOU. Edit: Oh, and a glue stick, a White Lightning Label and a 'Music With Attitude Vol. 70 CD.
  9. 34 o' Mees, and I too know (of) another with the exact same name; some kid who is in year 10 at my very same school (i'm in upper 6th). Apparantly he gets asked if he has a brother a lot... Yes, a brother with the same forename?
  10. My best album for walking to college is probably something like American Hi-Hi - The Art of Losing as it's pretty much the exact length from my front door to my college, and it's pop-punk so I get a little rebelistic after a listen, which is good for college; keeps you on your toes! Audioslave's first album is also good as it wakes me up a little. For the walk home I prefer Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American, I don't really know why. But then, I love that CD for pretty much anything at all. I'm not afraid to admit that I like to blast out some cheese-tastic Linkin park when I feel particularly teenage after an argumant with a parental unit. Full blast, windows open, knowing you're annoying at least three neighbours does the trick. David Grey - White ladder used to be an album I'd listen to jsut before I go to sleep.. Strange I know, but the second to last track (I THINK) Sail Away was always nice to start dreams with. The Used (self-titled) is another album alongside JEW that I just love and could listen to forever, anywhere doing anything. When chosing what CD's to take to college i pretty much always take those two and.. thassit. Definately two of my five desert island discs.
  11. That's nice Shame only 5 people in 25 views agree...
  12. I don't know if it's just my rubbish eyes, but could someone tell me what that is? I totally can't tell...
  13. I forgot to recommend Hopes Fall, totally not what you'd expect I listen to judging by my username. They're heavy death metal or something - Am kinda hoping someone on here has heard of them and could back me up. Incubus are pretty neat-o too :P Bjork good for paranoiac experiences.
  14. Ok so I was half-way through typing out a response to my very own thread about not being able to respond to threads when I realised that, for a change, I could make a new thread out of my comment instead. What makes a good thread? More specifically, what sorts of thread do you like to read and/or reply to? For me, it's usually threads to do with music - usually so I can attempt to defent Emo, or generally just to try and spread the word of music I like and think everyone whould hear at least once.. *cough* Senses Fail *cough*. I like most debates about religion and philosophy even though I'm a relative noob to those discussions and generally all these topics are the same; generally my replies are all teh same too. I like threads which involve the reader, so instead of just posting a link somewehre and saying "how cool is this!" I prefer the thread to ask a question WITH the link. I think most people prefer threads where tehy get to talk about themselves, because everyone likes to feel interesting *cough* The Acadamy Is... - Classifieds *cough*, yet nobody really wants to read about anyone else. I like the quiz thread but i'm really not regular enough to compete with that. *cough*65daysofstatic*cough* How about you?
  15. Yeah, Day is only good for Bub. You notice how the head army dude (i\m rubbish with names) in Day is a police dude at the beginning of Dawn (original)? In Dawn he plots with other coppers to steal a boat and find some island, a recurring idea of Romeros.
  16. Well he signed my Issue... [where the fuck is the hash key on this american keyboard?!].. my issue NUMBER ONE of gamesTM, and circled the word 'Gamecube' and put a lil' heart next to that. If i got him to sign something again it would me my bedroom door. I do not quite know how that would work, but shutup.
  17. elaborate, please :P You think that if there's a god, and you say "Hey, I always believed in you man! Even when I was cheating on my wife with the corpse of my neighbour after I robbed him of his statue of JESUS, then I had an abortion." that the dude will let you waltz on into heaven?... It ain't gonna happen. If you're going to "believe" in God then you have to believe in his word, you gotta live the way he WANTS you to live if you're going to get a nice slice o' creamy heaven pie. Are you willing to waste your life in teh hope that there's an after-one waiting for you, an eternal happiness to reward your hard-done life? Then again, some would say this is a rather extremist view. And Dieter; So's your face is your mum!
  18. the original Dawn had a better impact on me the first time I saw it than the remake has any time I've seen it. The remake is far more hollywood friendly (which I guess isn't really a criticism seeing as it is a hollywood film...) and doesn't really have teh same isolation feel as the original did. I'm not saying that the original doesn't look intensely shoddy (blue zombies.. wtf!), nor am I saying that the original was at all as good the 2nd time round, but I am saying that my favourite part of the remake is something that not everyone has seen - during the end credits when they find a camera onboard teh boat.. Not going to say anymore, but I liked that better than the rest of the film. having said that, I prefer the remake of Night if only because the lead female isn't completely moronic. But yeah, been dying to see Land since it was announced. I don't care if it's rubbish (which it isn't, by the sounds of things), as I'm a sucker for zombie films!
  19. Totally didn't have that when i saw it. Woo :P
  20. yeah BUT.. Read what I said. That's not the answer I'm looking for. I think I'll just say it now, as it might get built up and people could get dissapointed. The unstoppable object becomes immovable, and the immovable force becomes unstoppable. Y'see? Like those metal balls you see on an executives office desk where the forces get transferred. Bah, go read Walking On Glass - Iain Banks. I'd bet Bowser57 would know what I'm talking about.
  21. Why not? I mean, that's just the easy way out :P There is a lame answer (not too lame, don't worry) and.. that ain't it
  22. I believe that our perception of what a 'God' is is completely man-made and by default wrong. I mean, our word God is just a title that we've put on this vast unknown. 'God' is like saying 'so's your face', it works as an answer for pretty much anything. Going from teh other thread about einstein; isn't God just a name for teh absence of knowledge? Plato believed that knowledge = good, so maybe what i have just said is a contradiction.. HMM!
  23. lil' quickie, see who knows it; if an unstoppable object meets an immovable force, what happens?
  24. What about The Gorillaz, their stuff is (just like all music, then) way more intense when you're stoned. The difference between this and other stuff is it's clearly made to be listened by stoners.
  25. Aight, well I never said it would be a good reply.. SPOILERS Right. Basically the first half of the film is retrospection but also a twist of character... You see, the blonde girl at the end of the movie isn't the blonde girl at the start. At the end she's kinda gone crazy after her brunette girl slept her way up the movie ladder.. The brunette got a job that the blonde thought she herself shoulda got. So the blonde, in her insanity, tries to explain to herself how the brunette got the job, and not her- but at the same time a voice in her head is saying that it SHOULD have been her, so she imagines herself as the brunette.. or something. I can't remember, it's been fucking ages! Oh I can't remember. I know it's something about that though. A lot of the scenes that the blonde isn't in she makes up, like the dude stealing that script and the old guy with the phone and when those guys told the director to chose this girl and stuff. I assure you, i knew what happened just after I saw the movie. I could come up with explanations for all the scenes, and stuff. I'll shh now.
