    If he was making "artful" works, it's not against the law to take nude pictures of children. If it was, all our mothers would be pornographers. You can't tell me your mom doesn't have a photo of you from when you were 2 or 3 running around the yard naked..

    Is your karma good or excellent? I have Excellent karma and I don't have to enter a code.

    A) Most reader programs can understand the code you have to enter by the fourth try.

    B) Make an account, we don't have to enter any code unless we have horrible Karma.

    C) It's being done to try to stop the crapflooding, but because of A it doesn't work very well.

    A pun (also known as paronomasia) is a deliberate confusion of similar-sounding words or phrases for comic or serious effect.

    I take it you've never lived in a gated community. They're like little islands filled with rich white assholes and their mexican maids and gardeners.

    They have rules like "You can't cut your grass on x day," or "You cannot water your lawn past xpm on Fridays," or "You cannot leave a car parked in front of your garage overnight."

    If you violate any of the rules, you can be fined.

    \They make and enforce their own laws, kind of like the little mini-cities in Snow Crash.

    Alright, it works fine for my use. Which is watching downloaded episodes of TV shows.

    Oh, and if you lost that "I'm so better than you because I can waste more money" attitude, maybe girls would be willing to talk to you.

    Just a thought.

    at Empornium and PureTNA they say "Hey, can you take our products down?" and EMP and TNA take them down and say "If you post this, you're banned." and that's that. the pr0n companies know that if people like their stars and content, they'll purchase enough pr0n to make it worth it.

    So I didn't read any of that.

    But what it seems to be is "I spent $2500 on a TV and it has Firewire. That makes it better than your $200 TV + $10 S-Video"

    Good luck with your wasting money. And have fun with that Firewire TV.

    InuTrasha? About as high quality as DBZ.

    Big O is the same kind of show as Megas, but with a tad less comedy and more rain.

    If you like giant fighting Robots, what's why Big O exists.

    And it's "Cast in the name of God, ye not guilty."

    "Gallium metal expands by 3.1 percent when it solidifies, and therefore should not be stored in either glass or metal containers. Gallium also corrodes most other metals by diffusing into their metal lattice"

    Doesn't sound very easy to store.

    If you're purchasing a liquid metal cooled video card, you can afford a $50 surge protector or a $200 UPS.
