Not sure why some of these asshats think i'm a "cunt" or "cock" because i don't like the damn books. It did however prove my point. I like Pratchett and Adams far more than Tolkien. Never saw the attraction to JRR.
I enjoy Dickens, Twain, and Melville, actually. LOTR isn't nearly as amazing as some people think. A great work of fiction is 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Elves not included.
This has nothing to do with book vs. movie. I just didn't like it. The entire story is a massive plot hole. Not a fan. Get back in your cage, you savage! Also, i'm more than likely in the top ten of Steve Jobs haters. Not a hipster, an engineer. And i worked(still do) in professional theatre. Special effects are nice and all, but right now they are the crutch of bad writers.
Rotate the "elevator" to the other side of the set.
Working in theater, we didn't have green screens. A well written story will pull the viewer in and suddenly, all becomes real. Don't get me wrong, i do enjoy a good movie, but special effects are for the lazy of mind.
I use firefox. I use ad-block+. I don't care that i am being tracked. I am not scared of the magic light that comes out of those glass orb things. There is nothing you can do about it, deal with it. Advertising is annoying, not a threat. Seriously, you tin-foil hat is clearly fucking up the logic circuits in your brain.
Sounds to me like you have deep personal issues. Login with facebook is the best way to get on a forum where you will be constructive(like in my case, car forums). It's fast, it's easy, and I'm not breaking any laws. OH NOES, THEY FOUND OUT I DRIVE A HONDA FIT!?! Who the hell cares. The fucker is orange, and i can be found driving the hell out of it. No one cares enough about you for it to matter. Privacy has its place, but some people obsess.
yea, im in WV, where the median income is 37K. While i'm making $35K fresh out of college, it am stuck here, and slipping. There is not advancement in this arrangement. Sure i could work my way up to 55K, but that still wont mean shit. Hopefully i can trick the government into letting me build electric cars. All i need is to finish the suspension/body design and some venture capital. i even have a long list of people who want to work for me.
I've noticed. I'm wondering why i obey laws at all. I'm about to just file a patent for "the use of a road with wheels somehow involved" and bribe the patent office. Then ill just sue everyone. Seems to work for apple, ibm, microsoft, and trolls everywhere.
When I'm a full time project engineer and can't afford to move out of my mom's basement, It's pretty bad. Renting an apartment costs nearly twice what a house costs to buy, per month. And because i have student loans, my credit is so bad i cant get a mortgage, despite having perfect credit otherwise. Being poor sucks.
I think they should publicly kill themselves, to preserve the honor of the company/clients they have disgraced. The RIAA i mean, i don't give a shit about Music Canada.
The one big problem i have is that GM already did it. The EV1 is still the mark we homebuilt EV guys compare to. All they had to do for today's market is extend it slightly, add a back seat, and drop in some Lithium batteries.
But it's not fair to fine a citizen the same as a corporation. You could empty my bank accounts, and the corp wouldn't even notice that amount of money. So you can ruin a persons life, or fine a company effectively nothing, with the same dollar value. Fine me 10,000$, you better fine Exxon 25+ billion.
Exactly. Why are cars still gas powered? Because building a real electric car takes real design work. They rather just strap a new engine and some uglier panels on the body of an existing car.

I would love to have a cheap ass cell phone. It really can't be any worse than my $500 piece of crap. Really, this is the best phone i've ever had, and its still trash. Android is a better operating system than iOS, but iOS has Bently style fit and finish. My copy of Android seems like it was written by drunk 12 year olds. Crash taking a picture, crash sending a txt, crash loading the browser. This is Alpha shit. Even Beta programs are better than this. And this is version 2.1? It shouldn't be released till version 5, apparently. The fact that my GPS antenna fell off the motherboard is just icing on the cake, proving the fact that no matter what you spend, you get junk. Why not let my spent $100 on he next one? At least i'll laugh when it sucks then.

She's too damn skinny anyway. Looks like a bar skank. Not sure why that sells.

People who buy android typically are smart enough to NOT buy a dell.

No body has made a decent LOTR yet. Not sure what your talking about.

It was a full body scanner joke...
You have a valid reason. The Tin-Foil-Wearing "Runaway(hint?)1956" does not.

However, they do make decent movies....

And, likely, will never be the same.

Being smart and poor ain't something to brag about. I'd know.

When was the last time you had a 200 mile / day commute and took a car to 200,000 miles with zero power-train maintenance?
