  1. ANGER!!!! I totally had something to say but this wii(k) contraption dumped my words. I have not forsaken 1Emulation. I will try to make my presence known again. Id say so much more, but I run the risk of loosing what I write.
  2. Just watched Iron Man the other day. It was decent. It could have been alot worse. It did better than the majority of comic book adaptations. Just look Ghost Rider and both Fantastic 4's, as well as Superman, Spider Man 3, and the X men movies. All of those are complete crap So this is doing better than average. Robert did a great job as Tony, but I agree with GameCop, he was just alittle too silly. But overall, I liked it.
  3. Oh man I just checked up on this thread for the first time since I put my 2 cents in. I see some great advice, but no word from Shiba. The guys are right. Kids are major work, and major priority. The best scenario is to be the best that you can be. Then everything else will fall into place. Well... more so than if you still have stuff you need to work on.
  4. Well, I don't know him very well. BUT... I know relationships..... very very well. I understand basic differences in people. He runs the risk, of alienating himself if he smokes again. It totally depends on him and the girl, on how they take their next steps. But generally speaking, him smoking, while she doesn't, might create a scenario for uncertainty. Say he smokes, but he is no slouch. He never misses work, the house is always clean, as when he sees a mess, he cleans it. School is always taken care of .... basically everything is the same, as if he wasn't smoking. And say she is the coolest chick ever..... When a girl has a life growing inside her, things change. Values alter, hell... since of smell enhances... will she appreciate smelling it on him... And will she freak out once she hits 4+ months. I think INKY might have some good insight on this issue. He has kids... I'm just trying to be a realist about this whole thing. And hope I might be a lead into some insight he might need.
  5. Unfortunately, this is a scenario for disaster. If this is the case. There will be no smoking for her, if she was a smoker to begin with. And if that is so, he will really need to consider all the scenarios therein. More than just smoking. School and work. Everything. Ooh boy.
  6. Hey man, welcome back! I was gone while you were too, so yea, I'm back too. I have no clue what the flock is going on with you, so i'll do my best with what I have read. I too recently got back into cheefing. Let me tell you something brother, It can and will get ahold of you. Just make sure you have your priorities set. Not that you don't but when I read about your current mindset... it rings familiar tones to me. crap will always find a way to go wrong, Life is merely playing the hands you get delt. The meaning of life, is to just be who you are. The only thing that matters in life, are those around you. Those you love. Everything else is secondary. On this relationship thing, just be cool. Just remember this. You can live with her for a while, and still not know who she truly is, and the same goes vice versa. When crap hits the fan... and it will, then you will see the person they really are. I'm not saying she is putting on a front. What I am saying, is that when you really like someone, you tend to "hide" the less desirable factors that constitute who you are. This is unintentional and common. Although we can change certain things about ourselves, Values are something at our core. Just take everything one step at a time, always ALWAYS communicate with each other. If something bothers you, find a way to speak about it to her in a non abrasive way. And do not let things that bother you slide, because you are not being fair to yourself or her. And I know you as an easy going guy, that I could easily hang out with. But just in case... if there is something that bothers her, and she mentions it, just remember you guys are talking abut feelings and things of the sort. Communication is the key. Ahhh UPS. They almost only hire at barely a part time schedule. I hope that is ok for you. If you get over 30 HRS in a week, consider yourself lucky. I have no idea what this baby business is about, so I'll go silent about all that. Awesome PC. I cant wait till I build a rig. I'm still using the 02 piece of crap. But yea, about the gonja thing. Just be careful. I just started up, and it is threatening to consume me again. Does she smoke? If not, you have some major decisions to consider. I'll leave it at that, I'm sure you have some rebuttals, but make no mistake, I have some counter rebuttals in stock. It comes with age, as I have been there my friend, and done that already. I hit 30 this year. Well welcome back, and I'll see you around!
  7. I have ADD. I am going to touch base on a few things mentioned. OK... a condition exists, although I am not sold on medication... Here is my deal. When I read something I am not interested in, I tend to forget what I read after I get to the end of the paragraph, as I had other things running through my mind at the same time. I cannot focus sometimes, and it's at it's peak, when I don't care about what I am reading, like American History for instance. When I play Guitar Hero or some other game, I often find myself using too large a percentage of brain power, thinking about something else, and it often flocks me up. But I think the medication is BS for me. I have adapted and do not use the ADD as an excuse. When I cannot focus... I try my best to zone in. LOL... but then I often think, about thinking less, and exchange one train of thought ... for another. So Ill be thinking, about not thinking so much... instead of timing the dragon Punch... hahahahah. But beyond all of this crap, I have learned to Focus, more intensely than most can anyway. But this is more on the rare side, as I don't need to use it as much. But when I am in the "ZONE" I am really in the zone. I see this look sometimes, like when I watch UFC... Some of the fighters are real focused, moreso than others. It boils down, to control. Can you control yourself? Anyone who acts like an ass, Or whatever your talking about...slapping some girl or whatever and blames it on ADD, is full of crap. Reality is Reality. My world is no different that yours. If someone deserves to get the sh!t knocked out of them... thats that, knock the sh!t out of them. See, I don't think it is a disability either... As I said, for me, it is a blessing. I pay more attention to things most never even notice in the first place. Like what color socks some chick was wearing when I met her. But it really shines through, when I play games. It is not "normal" behavior, but to label it a disability, is BS. BINGO brother... thats the ticket. There is something... but nothing someone cannot handle. They use it as an excuse. My mind often wanders, when I don't want it to. And when this happens, I enhance my focus. Sometimes it doesn't work out, but at least I'm trying. Too many people are just lazy, and use whatever is at hand to use as an excuse. Side effect???? I talk way way too much!!!! As people who are familiar with me know already. This post here... is more of the same by me. It's as if I must explain exactly what I mean. And this is not a malfunction, and flock any one who says otherwise. ADD? Sure am, what of it?!?!?! O.K. This guy is a douche bag. If he needs an ass beating, dole it out. Any excuse for his behavior, is just that .... an excuse. There IS NO EXCUSE for being a douche bag. The only thing this ADD or ADHD will do, is he will remember what you were wearing when you punched him.... lol. Screw his history and whatever!!! If he is hitting some girl, step in. BUT... it will teach him nothing. I have declined doleing out 2 major ass beatings. One at a bus stop, and another at a pool hall. Why??? because id have wasted my time, and perhaps gone to jail... for nothing. Yur best bet, is to talk to the girl. But she will not listen, she will want to stay with this jerk. Hmmmm maybe then he will get mad at you, and want to fight, bringing it around full circle. Ha... Remember this. ADD is no excuse for anything, except not being able to focus on something in particular. And ADHD is just ADD, but with a Hyper person... but unless your life is at risk, or something on par with that, There will never be a legitimate excuse to lay a hand on a girl. Plain and simple. Oh crap... the point. How to deal with it. You gotta make your point of view "real to him" And how he takes it has nothing to do with ADD. Only you can decide the best course of action, because you have to be able to back up, whatever it is you decide on. And each have individual strengths and weaknesses. The only thing that is going to change his ways, is a reality check. And even then, the way he takes it has nothing to do with ADD. Like I said, The ADD, is a farce. It's BS that distracts from the things that matter. HA... sorry about the long post!
  8. Well I worked from 8 am to 8 pm on Saturday. Then the girls picked me up, and we caught "Forbidden Kingdom" I liked it, although I expected alittle more. Sunday was a free day, where I just stayed at home and chilled. I slept forever, but whatever... And thats that.
  9. OK, I once let a girl bleach my hair. Turns out a few days later, the Manager at a gaming room wanted me to be there, as one of the local news groups were doing a story on his business. So here I am, on local TV, in Orlando mind you, with white ass hair, that needed a major trim. So stop your belly aching, and work with what you got. Pro-tip... loose the puffy look. Although I remember, when you get it trimmed from a significant length, it sticks up real bad for a few days. Besides, not that it matters, but that old haircut, was getting on my nerves. I welcome your new look. Ha, I am getting a haircut before the month is out... yea... I have a coupon.
  10. Alright Gryph! Finally posted a legit picture of yourself. Awesome. Uhhhh, you are kidding right?
  11. Well yea, the jumping physics are quite different. This game forced me into buying controllers for my PC. Was weird at first, but you get used to it. But I tell ya, "Redesign" is amazing. The entire world is redesigned, and things are trickier... Things in places, you really really gotta search well sometimes. Id recommend playing it through... You really need to update your emulators, MAME, ZSNES and maybe NeoRAGEx are still fine, but damn, switch Nesticle to either Nestopia of FCEUltra (even though Nesticle does have some novelty value). As for the Saturn, two emulators are worth your time: SSF and Satourne. Satourne loses pretty hard when comparing, but SSF needs a fast computer. Plus, you get ST-V emulation as a bonus. Well my PC has issues with the both of them. This was the topic, that led me to 1Emulation. Things didn't go so well for my Saturn needs...
  12. Well, I haven't been using the emulators as much recently. I have been playing console games and such. I still need to beat "Super Metroid Redesign" which is awesome... really, If you haven't played it, give it a shot. I have the 'ole XboX modded with MamedOX OS platinum 2 or however you say it. So EM and I will play some shooters, or Puzzle fighter on occasion. Other than that, My emulators are on hold. They are mainly there, when I get the hankering for some old school. Ever get the urge to play some Pirates Gold? Or Gunstar Heroes? I do. Perhaps one day... I will have all games, ALL GAMES!!! MUHAHAHA I have the basics, Mame, ZSNES, Nesticle?, Genx, and NeoRageX. Too bad Saturn Eulation sucks... I cant get it working worth a damn!!! I do so want to play some Guardian Heroes!!!!!!!!!
  13. Well the problem is, I don't have internet yet. I am using my roommates laptop, and were siphoning a nearby connection. I do not want to download bit-torrents and the like on her computer, so I will just view streams. But when the time comes, I might download the good episodes, so I can see a decent video quality.
  14. Final Fantasy, for a few reasons. First and foremost, play time. Final Fantasy games always leave me getting everything there is. which I have put in over 200 hours in FFXII. As for Zelda games, getting everything and finishing it off, takes but a fraction of the time. Which of course is a reflection on the games story... Without an extensive story, your left with no emotional attachment to the characters. When I play FF, I'm all like "O yea biatch? Eat this, and take bosses out with extreme pregidous. But with Zelda games, I just hack away at whatever. The Zelda story lines are TOO similar. Carbon Copies, that practically have the same boss. You get boomerang, you get grappleshot, you get master sword. And on top of this... the thing that bothers me most about Zelda games... is the difficulty level. IT'S TOO EASY!!! Sure, FF games are no prob, but if you blow through it, and are lower than the suggested level, it's more of a challenge. With Zelda, it's too simple... It's a childs game. They need to have some decent AI. You know, enemies that don't do the same routine over and over. Like, if you were to do something, they might try a counter. They need a battle engine, that has something to it. Not this obvious opening, then capitalization BS, where you do it 3 times, then it's dead. Like an Onimusha "Dawn of Dreams" or Devil may cry, meets Zelda. Those games require more involvement in battling. That would be bad ass. And if they made the world bigger, and stopped relying on same 'ole same BS that they always have. flock Gahnon, flock Epona. Twilight Princess was cool, but it too, had the same 'ole same feel. I want a NEW CHAPTER in Zelda. Where Link ant no female organ biatch. And he is out for owning fools. I'm tellin ya, Mix Zelda, with Onimusha Dawn of Dreams, and perhaps enhance on other fundamentals, then you have a game.
  15. Ahh the familiar sounds of complacency. The secret... IS willpower. Sure, getting help and support from others can go a great deal, but it boils down to, "if you cannot help yourself, you will fail" Friends and Family... Loved ones are a tremendous support. But even if someone helps you, if you do not capitalize on the situation, it will all slip through your fingers. If you want to succeed in life, you gotta struggle. If you aren't struggling, you aren't working hard enough. What happens to me, is I work hard to get somewhere, and when I'm there, instead of taking the next step... I chill, and do not build upon the life I am forging. I am not mad about it, because the only thing that matters in life, is others... and how you treat them. So I have no regrets. But I sure would like to work on things here and now, while I still can... instead of wasting away opportunities, by being complacent. WAKE UP! That was not meant to offend, it's just, it often feels like a dream, where nothing is real enough, until its too late.... so... wake up.
  16. Images I view, are from a dump, that have yet to be reviewed. So all I see are a ton of pics, in order of user ident code. Yes ... and? Well thanks, but things have changed... yet again... The 3rd shift has been dissolved, so now I gotta redo my sleep schedule. Work is fun, but it has a price. I believe I will be getting a new job soon. You have no idea how ridiculous the work environment is. I'm currently writing a report, so I will not disclose anything yet...
  17. Tonight was real slow. When the images ran out, we had a blast. Joking back and forth, and it was actual funny, not that boring heh, but laughing out loud... If only I had a camera running, I would have almost had a pilot to a show. Myspace Office... or whatever. I got paid, to do basically nothing, and I still ended up making them money. We have some real characters in there, me being one of them. The boss is awesome, and we already fired all the assholes who fall asleep and come in late. And the few people in my row, are dubbed Elite, and so when the images start getting low, everyone else gets sent home, and we get to continue raking in the cash, while we BS all night. The main manager, says I might become a shift manager, sometime in the near future. But who knows what tomorrow brings. If I were to be a Shift Manager, Id work 9 hours a day, every day, and only get 2 days off a month. But Id be raking in some cash. But I don't really know if id except it if it did swing my way. So for the time being, I will review images, of which sometimes blows your mind, or make you laugh your ass off. I see so many things... I have noticed that the uglier someone is, the more pics they take, and post on MySpace. There will be like 30 shots, all are almost identical, save for a slight... SLIGHT adjustment in posture or angle. AND THEY WILL POST ALL OF THEM!!! Why the hell? I take like 20 pics to find the 1 good one... and I post that 1 good one, not the 19 almost identical ones too. When you guys see a pic of me here posted, It was from a batch of usually 10+ pics, just to get it right. And my main dilemma, is alot of these people, need to not take so many pics in the first place... And you can tell if a girl is trying to get a boyfriend... She uploads like 20+ pics of various "sexy poses" (sometimes an epic fail) and practically hoe it out. I get sick of seeing kids put their peace sign together, to form a star. Thats so lame. Or photos of their hands making a heart. I also get sick of seeing stupid Blingy pics and other various crap. Pics with stupid preset graphics, like sun glasses or a pirate hat.... bah! But I get to see some of the coolest crap too, without having to go from site to sight. It's all there, somewhere posted in MySpace. It's like the Nexus of the internet. I think it's like the 3rd or 4th largest sight, so there is plenty of exposure. It's like news, for the internet. But alas, sometime you see things you really don't want to, like gay porn, or some chick, with "Meat Curtains". But thats how it goes... So basically... my job is ridiculous... I get paid to look at pics, and goof off. Tonight was a good night.
  18. "Dead Man" Staring Johnny Depp Billy, also had Billy Bob Thornton in a quick scene. Man... that movie was weird... it's hard to explain. Not "OMG weird", but more like "Uhhhhh, what?" See it at your own risk.
  19. I always liked Ninja Scroll. It was around '98 when I saw it, and it was the first animated movie that I saw, that used that particular animation technique. I don't know what it is called, but they blurred every other frame together, to simulate more fluid movements. I just watched it again recently, and it still gets it done... But on second thought... what blew my mind, Was "Fist of the North Star". I had never seen anything like it. When I first watched it, I was inebriated and it took me by storm. Heads exploding, body parts sliding off like slices of beef. That big Iron dude crushing dudes all over the place, and getting owned my Raul. ... The intro, when Ken walks unhindered through a falling building. The movie got it done!!! So yea, Id have to say Fist of the North Star is my all time favorite. In fact... I might have to supply up, and watch it again with some friends, and Captain Morgan!!! EDIT: And yea... the Movie only. The animated series sucked...
  20. What has happened, is an atmosphere for creating lazy asses. I am turning 30 this year. My generation is probably one of the last for being raised, is a situation that invokes critical thinking. No bottled water when you were thirsty, you drank from the hose. If you couldn't play football, you weren't playing, none of this BS where kids with no ability are playing too. I can go on and on, but it was survival of the fittest. There are alot of advantages today, but without critical thinking, how are to use the things readily available. Hell, even I am not at my full potential. All this information at my fingertips, and all I do is play games. Sure I am a skilled tactician now, and a multi tasking, macro managing freak. I know how to secure a room, so on and so forth... but I don't read like I should. I don't go out as much as I used to and I flocking work for myspace now so I don't even have a real job anymore. It's as if I have been tainted. This era of laziness has tempted me, and I am falling. I'm out of shape, and my knowledge is still minimal. I used to draw, but all I do play games, watch movies, and post on this forum. I don't neglect my girl, but I neglect calling my Mom often enough to say hi. Take this to heart. We are spoiled. Do something with what we have. Research... Learn... Inspire... Expand... GROW... Do not dwindle your time as I have. Before you know it, you'll have lost your youth, and still be no-where. Read a book, go jogging, learn a new dish to cook, draw, use the microwave less... heh. Do what you do, just mix it up. When was the last time I went to the bar, and shot some pool??? Damn, I gotta get on the ball, and if you lived near me, I'd drag you with me to shoot some pool. Ok... this rant was definitely left at a minimum. But the topic got me thinking about what has been bothering me for awhile now. My own lazy ass self. Ehh... I'm done.
  21. But to be forced into something that is that personal. I think one should have a choice. And it's their way of life, which mind you... SUCKS ASS! So what if it is a cultural difference, I think one should have a choice. Because there is always, ALWAYS another way.
  22. Alright! Everything I ever wanted... Thanks for the replies guys. Now I'll be catching... EVERYTHING!
  23. What the hell. You see, you miss all sorts of stuff when you don't have the internet or cable. And since I don't use an antenna, I have no TV whatsoever. To my understanding, transgenders reproductive organs don't work. But thats what I was told so.... If this is true, then the only possibility, is it was not his egg. But since he has a uterus, all it needs to do is stick to it, and the body takes over. Man what a mind flock. What in the hell. I'm thinking it is possible. But man... Where do you buy a card for this situation?
  24. The ads will be for a service, but not for products as far as I know. I can't give more details on the company until they launch. I knew you were gonna say that.... but I had to ask. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
  25. Agreed. How about I make up a game!!! Ohhhhhhhh yea. You have no idea what I am capable of. But... is it down due to memory size? or server issues? I don't understand... why was it taken down in the first place?
