  1. Stupidest scene in a movie: Too many to choose from, but any scene from a thriller where the psycho killer has been shot, electrocuted, stabbed and run over by a bus, but still manages to get up for one last scare. Most scarring: when I was really young I saw 'toxic avenger' - in retrospect the movie sucked but I was really shocked by that scene when the 'jocks' ran over a kid riding a bike, and he wasn't quite dead, so they backed over his skull. That was bad enough, but they also took a picture of the dead body and in another scene, the 'cheerleader' type takes out the photo and starts masturbating to it! I think I turned off the movie then and there.
  2. I think he should be suspended from the school flagpole by the testicles, and whipped with gym towels and the entire football team's underpants. Then, you should pull him down really far, and then release him really quick so that he goes flying. ...I think that's harsh but fair .
  3. I can see your avatar and sig fine. I don't know if you've fixed something by now, but I've always been able to see it.
  4. Yeah, when I was younger I always wanted to live in Japan, but I've decided that I really want to visit but like Bud drinker said I don't want to live to. The reasons are 1) I'd have to learn how to speak Japanese fluently, and it's a HARD language to learn, and 2) I realise now that I'd always be an outsider, no matter how long I lived there.
  5. If you could choose to live anywhere in the world, where would you move to? I'd probably stay in Australia - but I'd probably move to Brisbane or Melbourne.
  6. I usually stay up til about 1, or 1.30 but on the weekends that's more like 5 am. edit: looks like you stay up later than everyone else, ghost. you and I are the only people on-line at the moment, and I'm in a way different time-zone!
  7. I'm guessing satourne, if he's trying to run st-v roms. I couldn't get that emulator to work at all either! you may need the bios though - get it from http://bioshouse.fr.st
  8. The legality of N64 roms especially is flaky at best, that's why most "known" romsites do not carry N64 roms. I've gotten all my roms from P2P (mainly Kazaa Lite or Shareaza). DC++ is a good option too. Yeah, I remember reading about how Nintendo went on a huge rampage once the first 64 emu got released, trying to shut down every site that hosted the emu or any 64 roms. I can't say I've had any trouble finding them on the 'net though (but I haven't looked much because I prefer playstation!)
  9. I just checked, and the sig's still too big (for me anyway) in 1146x864 resolution (plus it's a heck of a lot harder to see what I'm typing!)
  10. What's unfinished with that? Everything I can think of works fine... The NES emulators though...all of mine run really slow and chop up my music. Someone should fix those first. Some sound stuff isn't done yet. I don't know the names of the chips, but some aren't complete yet. But most of the stuff is done. It's called WIP for a reason, because there's more work to be done. TO add a few things, just becuseeverything seems to run ok, doesn't mean that the emulator is perfect. For one, the grahics packs emulation/loading code is far from polished. Secondsly, the sound chip isn't fully emulated, including "proper" noise generation. (SquareSoft games are know to rape the SNES hardware when it comes to noise.) Some games still require hacks to work porperly and SuperFX emulation is dodgy and slow, SA-1 chip has some timing issues and on the whole timing is imperfect. Jeez, it sounds from that like the psx is better emulated than the snes!
  11. I think that's pretty arbitrary. I mean I'm a huge fan of anime too, but I see no problem with calling anime 'cartoons': animation and cartoons basically mean the same thing, and the name anime came from animation, so I don't really see how you can say anime are not cartoons. (to make things easier I'll only name non-anime cartoons): Duckman, family guy, futurama, the simpsons, beavis and butthead, daria, harvey birdman:attorney at law, the Maxx, the Head, the Tick, spongebob squarepants, rugrats, the wild thornberries, king of the hill...
  12. Well, seeing as someone said something...that thing is DEFINITELY too big! It takes up a whole screen on my monitor! I like the pictures, but you REALLY have to choose one or the other. The sig's too big!
  13. Fatal, that was an entirely unnecessary triple post! I hereby declare you ebil
  14. Well, that's a big question because there are so many genres. I'll stick to the ones I mentioned as my favourites: funk: Red Hot Chili Peppers 70s+ rock: Blue Oyster Cult Swing: hard choice, but i'd say Royal Crown Revue Ska: The Specials Reggae: anything done by Lee "Scratch" Perry (ie alot of the Upsetters' songs)
  15. Haha! That part was great. I should have tried that kind of ceremony on my roommate in high school (he was gay) but I think he was too deep into "the dark side." Who do you think was the better Hawkeye Pierce, Donald Sutherland or Alan Alda? My Mom prefers Alan Alda but I really like Donald Sutherland. I guess they both were equally good... Was Sutherland the Hawkeye in the movie? If so they were both the best at playing the role they were chosen for. Alda was a great hawkeye, but he wouldn't have suited the darker tone of the movie. Here's a better question: who was a better 'sidekick':- B.J. or Trapper? I preferred the movie BJ. Radar on the show was better because had a bigger part. Hot Lips was better looking in the movie. I actually meant that, in the show, which person did you prefer as hawkeye's main friend out of BJ Honeycut or Trapper John Pearce (I think that was his name)?
  16. unless she makes you laugh, shouldn't she go in 'celebrity crushes' rather than here?

  18. I can't remember where I saw this...but I remember a story i heard about a guy and a girl who met on the 'net, and chatted for a while, and they decided to meet up...and when they did, it turns out they were father and daughter
  19. good old. Cheech and Chong. What's chong in jail for - is it the obvious reason? Michael Chong is in jail for selling autographed drug paraphanalia over the internet. I never really liked the Cheech and Chong movies, they were somewhat funny but too many stupid people are like "they're the greatest movies on Earth dude! uuhh! let's smoke some more weed and become useless members of society." So that really ruined the experience for me. Dude, just because you smoke weed doesn't mean you are useless to society. Look at UC Berkeley, most of those katz smoke. I smoke a bit and I got a 1400 on my SAT!!! Maybe even more, if my new score comes in. Anon. Dude, don't take me so seriously. I'm not exactly clean if you know what I mean. One of my best buddies is a hard core druggie and he's at MIT owning graduate students. But most people I know that smoke weed are completely useless members of society. I mean, just look around your school and take a good look at the people that smoke regularly. More than half of them will become useless members of society. Well...I guess cleaning up my crap in the future doesn't make a person a completely useless member of society. Oh man, just a 1400. Gotta do better than that man, that ganja is affecting your skillz. And the SAT and ACT are a bunch of useless tests. But the new revised SAT will own so many kids, it's going to be hilarious! And I just remembered another really funny comedian, Henny Youngman. EDIT: THC itself doesn't do anything to the body. The liver processes it which forms that toxic compound that gives you the great feeling. That's why you don't get high the first time you smoke, and if you did, then you were faking it. Not necessarily, don't forget the good old placebo effect! Well the placebo effect is pretty much fake. But biologically you can't get high the first time you smoke weed because your body doesn't know what THC is and doesn't know what to do with it. It works kind of like the active artificial humoral immunity. Perhaps if a mother smoked weed when pregnant, it might cross the placenta like it is in passive humoral immunity. Kind of like how crack babies are formed. [Tyrone Biggums] I want some crack! [/Tyrone Biggums] Well, I don't think that would happen. Well, it might, but I doubt you'd get a 'weed baby': weed isn't nearly as addictive as crack (in fact it's not physically addictive: the addiction long-term pot smokers feel is just out of habituation, and only mental). You might end up with children with birth-defects though. Although to be fair, that can happen if the mother takes even one asprin during pregnancy (the chances just aren't very high, but they increase with the amount of chemicals the mothers consume)!
  20. Oh ok, you got it from the movie. That was a great movie, it was based on the book 'All the Presidents Men' so I'm sure its correct. I just don't remember him saying "Call me Deepthroat." But if you say so, I'll take your word for it. I would be rather taken back if some guy asked me to call him Deepthroat. Kind of creepy don't you think... good point! I'd probably just back away slowly. Well i've been meaning to watch ATPM again (I have it on DVD) so I'll watch it soon and then I'll tell you which of us were right! Alright cool! I guess I should rent it and watch it again too, it is a great movie. I suggest you read 'Worse than Watergate' by John Dean, I guaruntee you will like it. And are you excited about the new Michael Moore film? I know I am; it better get released. flocking Disney bunch of assbites. Yeah, I'm excited. At the moment it looks like we're (Australia and the rest of the world) going to get it before you guys! You should all sign the petition : its on democrats.com or democracy.com or something like that, just do a google search on it. The petition is pledging to boycott disney products until they release the movie; hopefully it'll be before the election!

  22. Yeah, we've got something called 'extreme makover' (which is probably from the u.s. as well) which is basically the same thing. Well, kind off. It's more like a 'queer eye for the straight guy' only the subjects (or is that, victims) are women, and they go to the furthest extremes (ie even plastic surgery) to make them look better. For crying out loud, TV is sending the message to every viewer who watches reality tv that 'you're sub-par, and you need to be more 'hip', or 'hot', or whatever. I'm willing to bet that reality tv will be the cause of a whole generation's worth of body-image problems.

  24. What does O.S.T stand for anyway? I've been wondering for a while.
