    "If only there were more ppl like courtney love [...] this world would be a much better place."

    A much better, white trash, raunchy, bitchy place.
    Not that I'm disagreeing. :) People who are uncompromising with what they believe are awesome even if I want to hate them.

    Wow! I forgot all about that site. Years ago I found a portal to those kinds of sites. If anyone found jodi interesting, check out some of these links. Be forewarned it might not be work safe, and there might even be missing sites because I haven't been to these sites in years.

  4. Re:Metroid... and some bitching :) on Assorted Video Game Movies in Development · · Score: 1

    I agree completely with Metroid. It's funny because after playing prime I turned to my friend and said "This would make a great movie if it was done right."

    It took forever for the industry to figure out a good way to convert comic books to movies (partly due to special effects limitations), but the end result has been great. Love them or hate them, X-men, Spiderman, Daredevil, and probably Hulk too were all well put together. Nothing looked or felt too cheesy about them. So maybe with this new wave of comic book conversions somebody will figure out something that works for video games so we won't have anymore... *shivers* Super Mario Bros. movies

    Where do I sign the petition to prevent the words "Shock and Awe" to ever be used together again? If I have an aneurysm, you'll know why.

    Wouldn't it be ironic if a general rational sensibility towards gender equality comes about through all these "evil" video games.

    On a serious note, I'd like to thank you for holding up the stereotype of the typical insenstive male. I tip my hat to you, dumbass.

    "Sir, Macromedia has little to do with those faggot advertisements you've been seeing recently"

    Gotta love it when "Sir" is shortly followed by "faggot" :)
    I don't like ads and I'll still blame Macromedia. Why? Because of control. I can control image display, even GIF loops. If I want to have Flash installed, but disable portions of it and/or disable it for specific sites there is no built-in functionality for that.

    So, sir, blow it out your ass. It's been around for years and still sucks.

  12. Re:And in 2002... on Top Ten Web-Design Mistakes of 2002 · · Score: 1

    And in 2002 a completely worthless top ten. Come on, these seem more like things people would overlook which is pretty much the opposite of a "top ten" in my book.

    What about lacking web standards support, ridiculous flash requirements, bad javascript (errors, popups, etc.), sound/music that automatically turns on (*grrrrr*), intro pages (of any kind: flash OR html), etc? ...instead it's misleading hyperlinks?
    The only very valid point made was about FAQ's not being FAQ's. In a time where scripting is rampid I see no reason why FAQ's should not have been evolving as implimentation has become easier.

  13. Web-Design Mistakes? That's easy... on Top Ten Web-Design Mistakes of 2002 · · Score: 4, Funny

    One word: Flash.

    Yeah sure, it can be done right, but the other 99.9% of the time I hate the world.

    with the exception of cigarettes and std's, there is a good use for all of those things you listed. I'm pretty sure you can't play baseball or hockey with a gun. At least not in 42 states.

    Specifically, the amendment bans "any written material, any image or any other representation of ideas or theories, which advocates, promotes or incites hatred, discrimination or violence, against any individual or group of individuals, based on race, colour, descent or national or ethnic origin, as well as religion if used as pretext for any of these factors."

    The definition of the law makes the law itself illegal if it entices you to hate Council of Europe and the religions that support the law. Right? :P

    Not sure if this was mentioned, but wouldn't it be possible to silently download a program to your cache? I skimmed through the FAQ and didn't see any blocks on file types.

    Someone could download it to your cache then maybe find a way to execute it.

    Just in case anyone wants another reason to use Mozilla over IE, set your Internet Options [control panel] to basically disable everything. No java, no images, no scripting, no auto-installs, etc. Open any program like Morpheus or LimeWire [programs that display ad banners] and smile at their absence.

    Use Mozilla to browse.
    Use IE options to block embedded software ads.
