The problem is that so many counties in the world seem to be losing their liberty. Here in the UK, when I consider a country to run off to, Europe is a no go, the US is screwed, Australia is becoming a nanny state, Japan is overly right wing, and all the other counties never had much freedom to begin with. Canada, which you suggest, is better but going down hill. Maybe somewhere like Brazil, which isn't 'free' as such, but is a nice place if you have enough money for gated accomodation and bribes.
Being a nerd, I will admit to being somewhat inexperienced on this subject, but it is my opinion that a hug is about being close to someone and feeling their warmth, not being sqeezed by an air compressor...
That sounded really good up until the "Some of my best friends are Black!" bit. I know you didn't mean it like that, but it sounded silly none the less.
However, The Shadowrun setting is really cool, and I can't see such an interesting future arising from Europe. You might just about pull a World of Darkness out of the EU, but I think AAA corporations would be sadly lacking.
*sigh* . I should really get into the habbit of using the preview button...
Or, you get an overly expensive mouse, like these ones, and wack the sensitivity up to max, so that a tiny movement of the wrist moves the mouse from one side of the screen to the other. It takes a while to get used to, But when you do get used to it, you can't go back to a less sensitive mouse.

You could go for "Yanks". Apparently, in America, you use that term to refer only to people in the North-east, but the rest of the world uses it as a general term for all the people from the USA. "Seppo" is pretty cool, too, if you are want to pretend to be Cockney.
Mmmm. The junction system was great. I remember having 99 Ultimas junctioned to Squall's attack, and 99 of some other big spell attached to his HP. Then I'd just keep him for ever inside the limit break range, owning everything.
On the other hand, the US has created people such as these, by not having these laws. While hate speech laws are dangerous, it seems to me that a lack of some provision to stop people forgetting the past is also important - as [reference goes here] said, "Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
In modern Japan, there are no laws to prevent the country from forgetting the actions of that county in WW2, and we can see this has an effect - Japan has sour relations with China and Korea because the majority of the populous do not acknowledge that the atrocities committed by Imperial Japan (which were in some cases of a similar magnitude to Nazi war crimes) ever happened. Likewise, there are many hyper-nationalist movements in the country, because people have forgotten the events of the war. While the speech laws in parts of Europe are a little suspect in places, you can be sure there is no significant groups of people advocating a return to a wartime society!
As someone up the page a bit has noted, this name would seem to be a product of the Japanese mind/language, which places more importance on the look of the word, rather than the sound of it. MacBook Pro is just a shitty name.:D
Probably because the residents of the town find it funny to watch scared travelers scared crapless as they make their way along some narrow, dangerous, rocky cliffroad.
Hey, there is never anything good to watch on TV - they have to find something to do.
Oxford and Cambridge are actually the cheapest universities in britan to go to. There is the three thousand a year tuition fee, which is standard over all universities, and the accomodation, which is on campus for your entire time there. This means you only pay for the accomodation for the 32 weeks or so the uni is teaching, so you can run off home to hang out with your parents during holidays. This differs from other universities, which would have you living in rented accomodation after the first year, accomodation which you'd have to rent at a full 52week contract. That is how I understand it, anyway.
And yes, you are right. The universities are heavily subsidized. The important part, however, is that the best universities in the country do not cost loads more than the worst universities, so an intelligent child from a poor household can go and get his/her Oxbridge degree, instead of being limited to a shitty polytechnic because of the economic situation of his/her parents.
Originally, there was not even the tuition fees, so that you could attend university for 3 years on very little money. It pisses me off how 'unlabour-like' the current goverment is.
$150,000?? Damn, that is a lot of money. Not wanting to be smug or anything, but It would cost you about £19,000 , or $33,000 to go to Oxford or Cambridge in the UK for 4 years, including accomodation and food.
Hmmm. In GTA, the girls would invite you inside for "Hot Coffee". The hot coffee mod was so named because it unlocked some shoddy sex scenes with said women. Now, I am sure you already know this. I was just establishing a bit of background info to say:
I don't think a woman would invite you into her house for a cold beer.
Yeah, it would surely be a man inviting your guy inside for a cold beer, and I don't want to see that...

What about Milla Jovovich? She is probably heavier than water - does than mean she is still on Mars?

Eeerk, I didn't realise we had laws like that in the UK... I need to step up my "move to sweden" plan.

Ah yes, of course. I am a strategy gamer, and tend to forget about such things.

Condoleeza Rice.
Science and Biotechnology is all well and good, but you should pay attention to the people who pay for your research, too.
Think about the implications for the Sex industry!
Depends who is drinking the Beer...
F*cking the article? You have a strange fetish, my friend.

Yeah, that is the correct thing to do. but a geeky 15 year old kid probably doesn't have the guts to do that.

Play EVE Online. With an average player age somewhere in the mid twenties, it is a slower and more involved MMO. No level grinding, either.
bleh. Just install it on a USB stick/mp3 player. Works like a charm.
because the said cults decided to burn and rape books
Congratulations! You just started a whole new creepy, internet based fetish subculture!
