You didn't like Gloss Drop paul? I was really hoping Sebastians Total was gonna be better than it was, but it inevitably ended up having a few good songs, and lame songs with cool intermitting interludes. Shame really because I absolutely love his remixes. I already know for sure that the best album that comes out this year is going to be Opeth's "Heritage", followed closely by the new Mastodon. Fuck yes. Best so far I agree has to be Let England Shake. Although, I haven't really looked into new music that much this year cause I've been getting really into hip hop properly for the first time, so I'm basically catching up on the classics from the 90's.

WHAT KIND OF LANDSCAPER PUTS A LANDFILL CENTER STAGE?

Same here bro. Shit, its been two weeks Genuinely though, need someone to occupy my bed, sharpish.

This looks absolutely incredible, completely sold. Really hope some of you guys are gonna be up for multiplayer aye?

Ah man, that sounds so good. I haven't had like, cake or brownies or any other tasty treats for months. Too bad I'm in Manchester! =(

I gave up rock climbing cause it gave me trigger thumb; had to choose between that and playing guitar. It's a lotta fun, although you have to be incredibly flexible to be any good at it.

No, but the doctrine of your culture does seem to underlie everything you're saying, at least until you moderate it with a subsequent post. Also, yeah, "above all a living being seeks to discharge its strength," I'm not unfamiliar with Nietzschean maxims, but the beast of prey and the unwavering pitilessness that characterises his blonde beast doesn't really exist in our world. Inevitably, you do realise that your speaking of, and attempting to reconcile Abhramic gods, and Nietzschean ideals in the same post may actually consititute the most glaring contradiction imaginable, right? The Abhramic gods are actually the most decadent and most representative of an opposition to the will to power that you will find in any ideology or religion. Quit bullshitting/ spouting indefensible nonsense.

Really, so in your mind, applying the term "mother" to nature, doesn't constitute an anthropomorphisation or at least the insinuation of sentience onto something which has no actual intent? I always thought you were a bit stupid, but not to the point of being unable to navigate a dictionary. Secondly, yes, if you can't make a point without citation of someone who whose core constituency consists of the dregs of the internet, then you are a fucknut. Finally, yes, I can see that your expectations for serious discussion on this forum are reflected in your own input, in which case, just go away. Nobody missed you.

And thus we learn that most of everything you say is essentially a regurgitation of muslim doctrine. This is a typically Islamist idea (I should know, since I was born into a muslim family), and one that really had no place in a world outside imaginary causes and an imaginary teleology. The world isn't anthropocentric. Look outside the doctrine of your culture.

Sooooo drunk =D. Edit: I'm a mean drunk.

Don't fucking anthropomorphise nature, and use phrases like "circle of life" in a debate, you absolute arsecandle. I also find it dickish and tiny minded to cite Maddox, of all universal fucktards as anything approaching a serious argument. Finally; what the fuck is that in your avatar?

Was gonna do star wars with the bong, but I couldn't get any weed, so I went for the solitary bottle of wine and watched both Seasons of Spaced. We gotta have ourselves some unspoken telepathy at this years meet plz.

I'm definitely going to be there this year, and gonna try to stay sober until the evening =p. I don't think the cycling thing will be there this year. Wasn't last years meet on a different date?

Rice milk is my favourite thing in the world, absolutely love it. Yeah Wheat intolerance is a bugger, I only got diagnosed recently. Means I can't have beer =(

I occasionally feel a twinge of guilt for the myriad of sources for my ridiculous daily meat consumption, but ironically, I'm intolerant to milk, wheat (and I'm suspicious of eggs also needing to be included in this - which is clinically unconfirmed at this point). Even eating a small amount of this ish makes me groggy, slow and prone to bouts of irreconcilable depression. Also, I've always found it weird to eat stuff that comes out of a cloaca.

Actually cba with a commited relationship for a while though, you find that it doesn't leave time for shit like playing guitar til the sun comes up, or sitting on the toilet for an hour reading Moby Dick. It's man whore time.

What, you mean access the console and enable god mode?

I'm getting sick of waiting for Black Mesa to come out, and have decided I might just try and play through the first Half Life as it is. Got a good way through HL: Source, until it got fucking ridiculously hard.

Funsies...

I guess I'm mostly coming from the position that I've never really found Halo's gunplay that rewarding or entertaining in itself, and it was always the co-op that was fun for me. Running through the levels with a friend blowing shit up without setbacks was a great feeling and it just never felt that rewarding on higher difficulties. That said, I played the each of the first three games on Heroic, and didn't really notice a difference in comparison with normal difficulty other than the fact that the enemies had more hit points and better weapons, the extent of their AI routine pretty much amounting to an elite surrounded by a few grunts charging you while a jackal shot you from afar. I had a lot of fun with the first game though, when it first came out, but I don't think it holds up in the present. Especially after the silent cartographer level, when everything turned to shit.

Why would you want to play it on a harder difficulty though? It just makes it frustrating, and all it does is shift the focus more heavily onto the mechanic of the recharging shield. Its not like it makes the AI any better.

I love spotify and everything; I've got a premium subscription, but its a fucking travesty that they don't have Metallica, The Beatles or Joanna Newsom on there. Laaaaame. Jesus, you work at Jagex? Wasn't that voted like the best gaming company to work for three years running?

Jesus, I really shouldn't give that impression. No, I don't grab. I face plant, right in her knockers. Seriously though, flirting for me just involves making a load of stupid jokes, chuckling and biting my lips in a vaguely vampiric fashion, and keeping the conversation flowing. Hopefully you get far enough in to convince (read: delude) her that you're not a psychopath and then hope for some music so you can basically maneuver into an awkward shoe-gazing shuffle/ titty plant.

Flirting is just holding conversation while going out of your way to be suggestive. Works differently for different people, me, I just go for titty. Sixty percent of the time, it works every time.

ReZ, I've always wanted to say this; You are a tumescent arsecandle. ...speaking of tension and all.
