  1. Re:And her name is...? on Review: Cowboys & Aliens · · Score: 1

    She's the lead actress, the love interest, and, in your words, the "sexiest woman alive"? Come on, Taco... Surely she has a name, or were you too busy spanking it to her tits to bother looking it up? She even shares top billing on the goddamn poster.

    Frankly, Olivia Wilde deserves better than this shiat review.

    Eh, what tits? She has a pretty face but she has the body of a 13 year old boy.

    Anyone saw the whirpool the tsunami created? It reminded me of Fringe, there an episode in the alternate universe where they show news footage of a black hole in the sea (New York), that looks almost the same. (Tried to find the image but couldnt find it)

  6. Re:Obligatory... on Zombie Ants and Killer Fungus · · Score: 1

    They talked about it on Planet:Earth (found clip on Youtube). The ants go insane and the other "sane" ants actually exile them.

  7. Re:Sigh on A Million Kids Misdiagnosed with ADHD? · · Score: 1

    The reason is that in an ADHD brain, the 'control'-part isn't working hard enough, making you very impulsive. And if you act on every impulse, you're hyperactive. So, you have to stimulate the 'control'-part of the brain, keeping the impulses in check.

    Well, when I was young and my 'control-part' wasn't working my parents prescribed some sort of pain (spanking, belt, etc). That way when I got that impulse again I would remember said pain and kick-start the 'control-part'. That taught me something, cause and effect, consequences for an action, etc.

    Replacing discipline with drugs is a mistake, the drugs won't teach him control all they do is push the real problem aside until they get out of school.

  13. Re:Pfft. on Video Gamers Have Power Over Their Dreams · · Score: 1

    I've only had one lucid dream, the problem is that the excitement of realizing I was dreaming woke me up.
    One thing that happens to me often is sleep paralysis. You feel an evil presence around walking at you and you can't move. The first time it happened was horrifying, but now that I know what it is things go more like 'Great, it's you again, screw you evil presence'.

    The island wasn't purgatory, the flash-sideways was.

    • Jack died in the bamboo field, as he sees the plane leaving the island.
    • Hugo became the new guardian and Ben his second, when they eventually died (who knows how long after Jack died), they meet up the others in purgatory (flash-sideways), that's why Ben said "You were a great #1" and Hugo says "You were a great #2", it seems they spend a long time together guarding the island after Jack died.
    • We don't know what happened to those in the plane (reached land lived a long time, crashed in ocean, ...), but they eventually died and meet up in purgatory.

  17. Re:Chargebacks on Warhammer Online Users Repeatedly Overbilled · · Score: 1

    Well if you are paying interest then you are an idiot, I never pay interest on my credit card, because at the end of the month I pay it full, no interest. If you dont have money in the bank to back your spending then DONT SPEND!

  18. Re:Where's my computerized credit card? on Warhammer Online Users Repeatedly Overbilled · · Score: 1

    Interest? No credit card charges interest if you pay the balance promptly every month. If you're responsible, using a credit card for *everything* is in every way better than using cash or debit.

    This.

    I was one of the over-charged ones, but I paid with a credit card so not worried at all, I pay all internet related stuff with credit cards, the less people touching my bank account the better.

    BTW it seems this happened before (2008) so at least they are experienced dealing with this problems.... :)

  23. Re:Let's Not Get Ahead of Ourselves Here on "District 9" Best Sci-fi Movie of 09? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I'm not a hard scifi nazi like some people; I enjoyed me some District 9. But the biggest plot hole in the movie is the fuel causing genetic mutation. That's just ridiculous. But it was completely necessary to the plot as written. And, I loved the ending :)

    Why does everyone think that canister was fuel? I don't remember if they ever mentioned it was fuel. Was it mentioned? Anyway the mothership moved without it, the problem was that component was damaged in the small ship. We don't know their history, technology, hierarchy. Actually we know nothing about them. The liquid could have been something biological (virus, bacteria, queen's blood, ... ) which would explain the mutation of the guy. That canister thing could have been anything. It could have been a computer component (fuse, circuit, gelpack ala ST:voyager) that transmits data/energy/something using the liquid. The ship's "key" that uses the bio-liquid inside to grant permission to use it. There are lots of explanations, don't know why everyone is fixated on "fuel". Maybe they said it and I forgot but I really dont remember it.

    Okay, you win.

    You must be new to the internets, you never say "You win", you try to:

    • 1. destroy his credibility
    • 2. criticize his sources
    • 3. call him a noob/troll/nazi
    • 4. if you are losing the argument just say you have better things to do that to explain simple things to ignorant people.

    If you can mix all of them in one it's an instant argument win:

    1. Look you gene nazi (3), you cant trust anything written in wikipedia (2) you probably added that entry yourself! (1). Anyway I'm not going to waste my time trying to educate (4) a noob (3) like you. Just go back to your parents basement (1), you troll (3).

    Hope I was of some help to you....
