Recently created some skiers for SSX on Tour (I know... it's a console game, but somewhat relevant to the discussion). I have made 2 characters and they're both Female. I suppose it's better to stare at a nice digital rack and plump, juicy ass than some digital dude's...
Never played MMORPG, so I guess I shouldn't be posting here...
And here all along I've thought that women were so much more organized and cooperative together than men will ever be
You've been wrong, wrong, wrong. That's the secret they don't want to talk about, see? They're smarter than us, they live longer than us, they control the booty... Why aren't they firmly in control by now???
The answer is because they HATE each other! 2 can get along, but put 3 together and 1 will hate 1 of the other 2. Guaranteed... Then it's ON!
It didn't take long for my Corporate Golden Boy attitude to switch up... Was employed from mid-1998 until mid-2001 and waved the Corporate flag. Then they screwed me (HARD) over trivial office politics and a couple of hundred dollars, and I began to see things from a different point-of-view.
Now it's all about covering yourself first, then thinking "Is this good for the company???" Things were so easy back when they Company was looking out for me and I had their back. Too bad it was all a lie! Cover your 6:00 and do what you say you will do. Then you won't feel bad when things fall apart and you're out seeking a new gig.

God Forbid we're deprived of yet another version of King Kong instead of several flavors of individual artistic expression...
/Devil's Advocate, as I would likely never bother to observe anybody's crappy homemade movies until they hit some kind of Top 20 on a popular portal
SSX on Tour uses the "Blur" to indicate that you're going "really, really fast". It's nice, since it gives you a visual indication that you're going too fast for sharp turns. And it makes you feel like you're REALLY hauling @$$ down the mountain.
Come to think of it, they also kinda zoom in on your character so that he/she is bigger on your screen while the surroundings are blurring by... I like it, but perhaps it only works for snowboarding games...
Kit Fisto was an awesome character, and I grew to like him based on the few short appearances (and his cartoon appearance, which gives MUCH more info than the movies). I understand that he was a fairly powerful Jedi, so I was disappointed to see him dispatched so easily (even if it was to show exactly how powerful Palpatine had become).
Just seemed like a waste to me... Same with Mace, but that's another story altogether...
In a pinch, you just boot to safe mode. That's not even necessary, though, since Winddows will work after several "Found New Hardware" dialog boxes. Not good enough to play Half Life 2, but good enough to salvage your personal info.
I was trying to explain to my Grandmother over the phone what my wife was doing on her PC, and I said "it's like a virtual doll house". Wifey got ALL bent out of shape over it. She tried to draw a comparison by saying I would be insulted if she referred to Half Life 2 as "like a virtual game of war". Then she got mad at me for not being offended by HER analogy...
The point is: don't call it Virtual Dolls in front of an addicted woman. She'll get pi$$ed.
or not. . . what the h3ll do I know about women?!?
My buddy complained that his wife ignored him now and never wanted to hang out, talk or take any interest in him whatsoever. He said it started when he installed Sims2 for her. I installed Sims2 for MY wife that very night.
Parent is right, too. I've not heard a single complaint about my gaming (PC or console) since. As long as I keep the expansion packs coming...

PORN IS NOT OK. IT IS EVIL AND WILL COMPLETELY CONTROL YOUR LIFE IF YOU INDULGE IN IT LONG ENOUGH. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM IT.
This isn't true for everyone. I intend to keep trying to prove you correct, though. . .
I'm inclined to believe that only suckers give $20 for a PDF that's probably floating around the web for free anyway...
Seriously, though, I'd have to speak with someone who bought this and did it themselves before I even considered investing $20. If I had $20 to blow, I'd finally fork some over to Brahm...
Businesses don't resent spending the money after the service is performed, where many home users get the "That's All It Took???" attitude after you've worked your magic. Funny how you didn't give me a crappy attitude when you were begging me to come over tonight-right-now-can't-wait-til-tomorrow...
I go to CompUSA every few weeks when their DVD-Rs are on sale. I never get bothered. If anything, I occassionally want someone so I can see if they have more hiding in a display somewhere (if you show up 15 minutes after they open, you're too late for half the crazy sales they advertise... sold out...)
But I believe it about BB. Don't even gaze towards a big TV or you've got Chet and Chaz fighting over the commission...
My step-mom yelled at me for giving them a machine that "didn't work". Of course, I gave it to my DAD, for FREE, and it worked fine for almost a full year before it needed a new piece of hardware (it was built entirely from 2nd-hand parts).
She said "the mouse works, the keyboard works, and so does the printer AND the screen. We just need a new middle-thing."
I knew what she was getting at, yet I played dumb: "Middle Thing???"
She says "You know... the BOX (mimes square with drunken fingers). We just need a new box."
At that point, I told her Dell sold boxed on the cheap, and they have 24 hour tech support... She'd never have to fool with me or my non-working parts again.
Long story short, she bought a Dell to spite me, and I got all my old parts back (had to replace a HD, but everything else was fine).
You CAN do tech support for your friends and family, as long as they know what it's worth first... The ignorant get a toll-free 800# to speak with Mr. Dell.
it's kind of scary to think that something as crucial and sensitive as science, which is so important in our lives can have the interest of business (or money) before fact and well being.
Sadly, I don't think the general voting public is too concerned about these types of things. What with ignorance being blissful and all...
Now taxes, gas prices, private school tuition, gay people being legally bound... THOSE things will grab their attention!
What do you hope to accomplish with this kind of truth? There's no money in Truths. If there's no money, there's no study, no scientist, and no science. We'll be left with a handful of sinners interested in learning for KNOWLEDGE's sake... Dirty birds will get theirs in h3ll.

I have those and they are definitely worth it for "Old Time's Sake". It's even kinda fun to watch the translucent squares around the Tie Fighters...
