So what, you park the bike right on the floating shirt icon, or where it's just poking out the side of the bike, then get on the bike from that side but being careful not to touch the icon before you hit the triangle button?

Essentially yes, the trick is that you should pick up the token while you're hopping on the bike, not on your approach beforehand or after you've sat down on it. Took me a good 5 minutes or so to get right, but it's fantastic once you get it.

Yeah, there was a lot of wasted potential there, I have to agree with that. Frankly I think they could've dedicated an episode to him as opposed to him supplementing the existing storyline for that episode.

Yep. Plus more making fun of rest of the band OR if Matt and Trey didn't want to do that because they felt only Bono was deserving of self-important celebrity mocking, then they could have really set the 3 other bandmates against him. Maybe had them team up with Stan, Kyle, and Cartman in pairs to defeat the evil Bono or something. Coulda been epic! Instead... was just pretty funny. Good enough, though.

He definitely started out as a single account, and AFAIK as a main account, not an alt.

At this point, who knows, he could indeed be some other user's alt at this point if the original Pimp isn't depositing for himself anymore, I dunno.

Party Girl and 11 O'Clock Tick Tock are my fave b-sides from the 80s, and they're both on Under a Blood Red Sky, so I can listen to 'em without having to have all the singles from that era

Hmm I don´t know those songs that well yet. But weren´t they also featured on October, Boy or War? And I thought I was pretty sure that 11 O'Clock Tick Tock was their very first single and not a b-side.

No, they're not from any albums.

You're correct that 11 O'CTT is a single in its own right, but it was pre-Boy, and the track wasn't on Boy. I confess that at times to me, single = a song from an album that has a separate smaller release with its name, and b-side = every track that didn't make it onto an album, usually found on singles.

So to me, even though it was the "star" of its own single, it's still kinda like a b-side in that it never made an album. #;-}>

I don´t have any U2 singles at all. My fathers to blame for that. He always wanted to buy the whole album because that was much cheaper and b-sides are usually never that interesting anyway.

Well, back around 1993-1994 I had finished getting all the U2 albums, and when I saw singles in the store, I figured... eh... I don't buy singles for any other bands, but this is U-freaking-2, so WTF not? And thus I started buying U2 singles. #;-}>

But I believe a lot of B-sides appeared on the "Best of"-collection cd´s, so we still have them somewhere.

That's good.

But anyway, you clearly missed out on SOME songs, for instance saying you're not that familiar with Party Girl and 11 O'CTT, so... you should at least get the live album Under a Blood Red Sky. It's got only 8 tracks, but it has iconic live performances of tracks like Sunday Bloody Sunday and those 2 non-album tracks above and a few other tracks from Boy and October and War performed live. Like... Gloria... and I Will Follow (I think)... and Electric Co from Boy... and... eh, I can't remember 'em all. I fail.

I think so? Although I am a little confused here :p

Do you also mean not all of their existing music necessarily has to be what they really sound like? Or used to sound like?

I guess what I meant was it's funny how your idea of what a band SHOULD sound like is totally crafted just from what they've released, not from what the band actually has done.

For instance, there could be 10 weird U2 songs out there that you and I haven't heard, all from the 80s and 90s... and their next new album in a few years comes out and sounds really weird and very un-U2-like to both of us and we don't like it very much... but in an alternate reality, those 10 weird songs were either on albums or were well-known b-sides or live staples, and.... due to that one change, the new album that comes out sounds like perfect U2 to us. #;-}>

I guess I just mean that bands do change from album to album, but they probably also have secret sides and songs that were everyone to know, our ideas of what a band's sound truly IS might change already, just looking back at old stuff, let alone a new album that sounds weird and different (like I believe your first reaction to the new album was, at least to most of it).

I was just joking a bit that while XBox players have to pay, at least they get this whole achievement system with gamerscore and all that shit. Which is of course totally not worth spending any money on :p

But now that you say that even you as a PC gamer have something like that, it´s almost retarted to get the XBox version.

Well, if someone cares about gamerscore, you don't get that on Steam (at least, not yet). You get achievements in any game that has them (not all games do, like with XB360, but a lot do... I'd say of the 80 games I have, around 12 have them, and most are newer and good games, a lot of the games that don't have them are from the 1990s, so... pretty obvious why they don't have 'em, achievements weren't around back in the 90s).

But anyway, you can see your % achieved for each individual game. Here, this is my TF2 stats/achievement info page:

http://steamcommunity.com/id/gfawkes/sta ts/TF2

And here's my page for Portal, say:

http://steamcommunity.com/id/gfawkes/sta ts/Portal

And I bought my last videogame about 2 years ago. Which was Zelda: Twilight Princess by the way. But I´ll just keep TF2 in mind if I ever have some spare money and spare time.

Awesome.

Well, much as I need to listen to more Blind Guardian, you need to watch more Charlton Heston movies. I believe I was referring to more of an Omega Man type Charlton Heston line of dialogue. He was the last human alive who wasn't mutated or whatever in that one. Good stuff, but not as famous as Soylent Green or Planet of the Apes.

I think Soylent Green and Planet of the Apes are the only movies I ever watched with Charlton Heston. >_>

CLOCK DAY CLOCK DAY CLOCK DAY

Ding ding ding ding!

There is only ONE problem with this, BTW, which I've just now thought of: no more b/p for gfox. Not that I'm bothered by leaving him at 12 saves and 6 blams or whatever he's on (not even sure I'm remembering it right) for all eternity, but... hm. I wonder... if you only vote on one or two things, say, and then 2 weeks later vote on one or two things, surely NG's forgotten about the previous votes by then and they won't register towards a deposit, correct?

I think that's so, but I'm not too sure. I've noticed some of my alts I meant to stop depositing for I accidentally voted on them a few times (no deposits, though) and later, the voting was reset so I'd have to vote for 5 more flashes to deposit again.

Well, can you help me out by confirming that? i.e. if you have an alt you stopped depositing for, but it wouldn't kill you if it gained 10 exp by accident, vote on 2 movies for it today and see what it says... "4 more till deposit..." and "3 more till deposit..." hopefully... and then in a couple weeks, vote on 2 more movies for it again, and see if it says "4 more, 3 more" again or if it says "2 more, 1 more..."

Then I'll know whether I should at least get gfox up to 36/36 before then. I might go ahead, but for now I'm leaving him at 12/6.

Hell, in fact.... I should put gfoxcook at 36k/36k, gfoxclock at 3.6k/3.6k, and gfox at 36/36 (or 360/360, whichever).

Sounds like a plan.

I'll only be doing the 360/360 if it's true that you can avoid deposits while doing occasional <5 per day b/ping.

Also, I really doubt I'd retire gfoxclock at 3.6k/3.6k, but we'll see. Depends on how much I b/p with him after I retire my main, of course. By my current levels, it would be easy to, but if somehow the ability to rise through the EG ranks again with gfoxclock got me back into both blams and saves again... I might have to try for a 2nd EGSC account. #;-}>

I have every right to hate the douchebag for snoring. Because of him, I have lost so much fucking sleep and the worst part of it, he's not doing a fucking thing about it. He doesn't apologise either, except for when I told him to do so. So what makes you think I shouldn't hate him for snoring?

Nvm, then. I just meant the snoring itself. Sounds like the real problem is not his snoring, but that he doesn't try to keep others from hearing it, and doesn't even apologise after the fact. Fair enough!

No, because I only ever save on Opera, and I only ever blam on Firefox (for now, once gfoxcook is retired, I'll do both ONLY on Firefox).

And since I'm only ever logged in to gfoxcook on Opera and gfoxclock/gfox on Firefox.... that keeps my saves where they belong and my blams where they belong. Capisce?

Well, the latest is that there is a manhunt underway for his personal physician, who apparently was with him when he collapsed. I am suspicious, especially since he appears to have done a runner, it smacks of a guilty conscience.

I myself heard some speculations of a possible suicide, but I don´t know. I guess the truth will come up soon enough.

I can't bring myself to believe that sort of speculation at present - I have heard that the family have requested a second autopsy. It will be interesting to find out how this works out.

A true great. The next few weeks are going to be the final chapter of the media circus surrounding Michael Jackson. This time will be quite emotional and will show us that not all Americans believed in his guilt, despite the posts made on the thread in General.

also i agree... newgrounds is running slow ¬¬

Like Odyssic said, Newgrounds has been rather slow today. I sure chose a great time to pull stats for my EXP update, which will hopefully be up later today. It seems this site hasn't had a good time this week with connection problems and all.

What's more, I'm having to go hospital tomorrow to have my right eye examined after the opticians suspected I have keratoconus. It might not be that in the end, but I'm mostly concerned about what the outcome will be.

I think the black album is overrated. It's a good album, but by far not that great (my fav album is Ride the Lightening, btw).

Considering how many actually hate the Black album, it can't be so overrated. However, I don't think it's a great album either. It's good, but not great.

St. Anger... well, if the sound wheren't so shitty it would be a much better album. >_> The songs are pretty intensive and dynamic.

Even without the terrible sound quality, I'd still have trouble listening to the album thanks to FRANTIC TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK TOCK!

How did Pyramid Head get into the finals? SERIOUSLY, dude. Talk about a rigged match. #;-}>

I'll give you a few reasons as to why:

1. He's a legitimate character, unlike a fucking Tetris block.
2. He's awesome and enough people agreed with that. :)
3. No extremely popular characters such as Cloud or Link were in the whole tournament due to bannage on them.

Serves him right.

Hey now. ;_;

Hey, he's been a douchebag for years now and still is.

Recent years only, yes, but they have become popular reviewers already.

No, I was saying that he can inspire as many other reviewers as he wants, but he's too recent to be classic HIMSELF yet.

None of us called him a classic reviewer, though.

CLOCK DAY CLOCK DAY CLOCK DAY

Ding ding ding ding!

Yay, I'm right! What do I win?

I think that's so, but I'm not too sure. I've noticed some of my alts I meant to stop depositing for I accidentally voted on them a few times (no deposits, though) and later, the voting was reset so I'd have to vote for 5 more flashes to deposit again.

Well, can you help me out by confirming that? i.e. if you have an alt you stopped depositing for, but it wouldn't kill you if it gained 10 exp by accident, vote on 2 movies for it today and see what it says... "4 more till deposit..." and "3 more till deposit..." hopefully... and then in a couple weeks, vote on 2 more movies for it again, and see if it says "4 more, 3 more" again or if it says "2 more, 1 more..."

Sure thing, I'll look into it.

SO IT WAS YOU WHO TOOK IT DOWN! ...Even though you have no Art Portal privileges.

Ah well, at least I've got the magazine off Coop.

I have every right to hate the douchebag for snoring. Because of him, I have lost so much fucking sleep and the worst part of it, he's not doing a fucking thing about it. He doesn't apologise either, except for when I told him to do so. So what makes you think I shouldn't hate him for snoring?

Nvm, then. I just meant the snoring itself. Sounds like the real problem is not his snoring, but that he doesn't try to keep others from hearing it, and doesn't even apologise after the fact. Fair enough!

And speaking of him snoring, yeah....I couldn't get any sleep until 5AM. That sure was fun. NOT.

Well, the whole purpose of my Alternative Character Battle was to get overlooked characters more exposure than they would on GameFAQs' tournaments. Something like that would be what I did already but with much less characters. This is why I'm going to make special tournaments on a specific subject such as a PS1 special I hope to do sometime.

No you kinda park up to it in such a way that you won't pick it up when you get off but will when you get on. This video probably explains it better than I can,but after he gets back on and the screen turns black pause immediately unless you wanna spoil the surprise.

So what, you park the bike right on the floating shirt icon, or where it's just poking out the side of the bike, then get on the bike from that side but being careful not to touch the icon before you hit the triangle button?

Essentially yes, the trick is that you should pick up the token while you're hopping on the bike, not on your approach beforehand or after you've sat down on it. Took me a good 5 minutes or so to get right, but it's fantastic once you get it.

I gotcha on that, but now I'm left wondering about the thing I just thought of and asked you about. #;-}>

See above, he does it a different "head-on" way rather than side-on, but it works either way.

I was talking about this with Bahamut earlier, too (seems like we were just Steam msging about everything we've been talking about here in LUL, interesting...), and I remarked that whether or not the thread started out seriously or as a troll, by page 5 (when he said "jellyous again after being mocked for the spelling by like 10-20 people through pages 4 and 5 to that point) he had definitely become a full-fledged troll whether he started out with that intention or not. #;-}>

Apparently it was an alt made by Zack, however as to the origin of the now famous original pic I haven't a clue.

That might mean something to me if I knew who Zack was. #;-}>

This guy.

But I take it that the picture isn't of him then?

May have just been a gimmick account for posting about weightlifting exploits or whatever, then they created that thread and what happened next was unexpected, but they rolled with it.

Ah. So kinda alt funs that became something more than they expected. Nifty.

Well I anticipate that's what happened, unless the poster was already aware of the phallic nature of his neck :)

Nice, Pity you'll spend 365.25 consecutive days with a frown because of 2037 :P

Yeah, past the first dozen pages it died a bit of a slow death as the quality photoshops dried up and crappy MS Paint offerings emerged. While I was disappointed to see it locked before Dick Neck: Origins was made, it was for the best.

Yeah, I didn't want to wade through the crap I knew would be in the later pages, so I ended up letting ED do my crap-wading for me, and they pulled out the few pearls that remained for me. Thanks, ED!

Indeed, ED proves its usefulness...for once.

I think we've had this discussion before, then. I AM FEELING TEH DEJA VU.

Maybe we have, can't recall myself to be honest but we could well have.

Well, let me just put it this way: unless there's another Irishman on Wi/Ht? who doesn't like U2, then we talked about it before. #;-}>

Now, I know there was another Irish dude who used to frequent LUL a lot back in the day, but... I really doubt you both suffer from the same lack of U2 enjoyments. That'd be too much to bear. ;_;

Probably was me, I just can't recall the conversation, that's all.

Yeah, there was a lot of wasted potential there, I have to agree with that. Frankly I think they could've dedicated an episode to him as opposed to him supplementing the existing storyline for that episode.

Yep. Plus more making fun of rest of the band OR if Matt and Trey didn't want to do that because they felt only Bono was deserving of self-important celebrity mocking, then they could have really set the 3 other bandmates against him. Maybe had them team up with Stan, Kyle, and Cartman in pairs to defeat the evil Bono or something. Coulda been epic! Instead... was just pretty funny. Good enough, though. Every ep of South Park can't be epic or it wouldn't still be going after 13 or 14 seasons, it'd have exhausted itself long, long ago. #;-}>

Yeah, you gotta have a handful of mediocre episodes to balance out the "Scott Tenorman Must Die"s of the SP world.

Epic song. Great for driving along to, especially if you've got a very expensive sports car to take around the countryside.

Epic indeed. I love the guitarsound in this song.

Singing, guitar... it's all excellent. Not the deepest of lyrics, but very singalongable. Especially in the car, yes.

These aren´t the kind of songs that I listen to for the lyrics anyway.

But it´s very good for driving around the countryside indeed like Coop also already mentioned. I remember this song was in Vice City too. I loved to take a fast car and race around the city with this song playing.

Lol, now I´m starting to worry whether I said something terrible :p

To Coop and Bahamut, apparently. But not to us reasonable folk. #;-}>

Luckily.

Party Girl and 11 O'Clock Tick Tock are my fave b-sides from the 80s, and they're both on Under a Blood Red Sky, so I can listen to 'em without having to have all the singles from that era

Hmm I don´t know those songs that well yet. But weren´t they also featured on October, Boy or War? And I thought I was pretty sure that 11 O'Clock Tick Tock was their very first single and not a b-side.

No, they're not from any albums.

You're correct that 11 O'CTT is a single in its own right, but it was pre-Boy, and the track wasn't on Boy. I confess that at times to me, single = a song from an album that has a separate smaller release with its name, and b-side = every track that didn't make it onto an album, usually found on singles.

So to me, even though it was the "star" of its own single, it's still kinda like a b-side in that it never made an album. #;-}>

I guess that depends on how you define a b-side.

Still it´s weird though. It´s a single released in between two albums, like Electrical Storm, but both those albums were released shortly after eachother... Why not wait to release it with the album and make it the "promotional single" or something?

Speaking of Electrical Storm by the way, I´d love to see that song performed live this summer for the very first time. I think it would do really well live.

But I believe a lot of B-sides appeared on the "Best of"-collection cd´s, so we still have them somewhere.

That's good.

But anyway, you clearly missed out on SOME songs, for instance saying you're not that familiar with Party Girl and 11 O'CTT, so... you should at least get the live album Under a Blood Red Sky. It's got only 8 tracks, but it has iconic live performances of tracks like Sunday Bloody Sunday and those 2 non-album tracks above and a few other tracks from Boy and October and War performed live. Like... Gloria... and I Will Follow (I think)... and Electric Co from Boy... and... eh, I can't remember 'em all. I fail.

We do have Under A Blood Red Sky here. My dad's bought all the albums U2 ever released except for Wide Awake In America and 16 singles. And I like how he got an original LP of October, even though our LP player doesn´t work so well anymore..

But the last time I listened to UABRS was several years ago I think. And I didn´t even listen to the album in full then. Just Sunday Bloody Sunday, New Years Day perhaps and it´s how I got familiar with The Electric Co. (which is I think my second favourite U2 song ever). I just always skipped 11 O Clock Tick Tock and songs like that because I didn´t know them and didnt wanted to know them I guess.

And now that I think about, I´m actually not that familiar with the early U2 albums, except for Boy. I haven´t given October and War a good listen yet. Should do that some of these days.

I think so? Although I am a little confused here :p

Do you also mean not all of their existing music necessarily has to be what they really sound like? Or used to sound like?

I guess what I meant was it's funny how your idea of what a band SHOULD sound like is totally crafted just from what they've released, not from what the band actually has done.

For instance, there could be 10 weird U2 songs out there that you and I haven't heard, all from the 80s and 90s... and their next new album in a few years comes out and sounds really weird and very un-U2-like to both of us and we don't like it very much... but in an alternate reality, those 10 weird songs were either on albums or were well-known b-sides or live staples, and.... due to that one change, the new album that comes out sounds like perfect U2 to us. #;-}>

I guess I just mean that bands do change from album to album, but they probably also have secret sides and songs that were everyone to know, our ideas of what a band's sound truly IS might change already, just looking back at old stuff, let alone a new album that sounds weird and different (like I believe your first reaction to the new album was, at least to most of it).

Okay I think I get your point now. And I think you´re right about this. What´s released on the albums might just be one side of a band and it sometimes is the only side we get to know. And it might be completely different from how they actually are.

And yes indeed I thought No Line On The Horizon sounded a little weird at first. But I had the same feelings with HTDAAB. With U2 I just always gotta get used to it I guess. Giving an album a few more listens, it always starts to sound better and better to me. But in NLOTH case I´m afraid I´ll have to put it on the very bottom of my favourite U2 albums list. It just doesn´t appeal to me that much.

I was just joking a bit that while XBox players have to pay, at least they get this whole achievement system with gamerscore and all that shit. Which is of course totally not worth spending any money on :p

But now that you say that even you as a PC gamer have something like that, it´s almost retarted to get the XBox version.

Well, if someone cares about gamerscore, you don't get that on Steam (at least, not yet). You get achievements in any game that has them (not all games do, like with XB360, but a lot do... I'd say of the 80 games I have, around 12 have them, and most are newer and good games, a lot of the games that don't have them are from the 1990s, so... pretty obvious why they don't have 'em, achievements weren't around back in the 90s).

But anyway, you can see your % achieved for each individual game. Here, this is my TF2 stats/achievement info page:

http://steamcommunity.com/id/gfawkes/sta ts/TF2

And here's my page for Portal, say:

http://steamcommunity.com/id/gfawkes/sta ts/Portal

Okay that seems nice. I like how you can have a whole personal page with all kinds of achievements for each game. And keeping track of number of hours played and all.

Um... maybe not "trailers" but more like... teasers? The things they show when saying: "Today/Later this week on $TV_Station!"

Ah, I see. Yeah, we call those "promos," as in promotions. Short little snippets.

Too many confusing names for just the same thing.

Well, much as I need to listen to more Blind Guardian, you need to watch more Charlton Heston movies. I believe I was referring to more of an Omega Man type Charlton Heston line of dialogue. He was the last human alive who wasn't mutated or whatever in that one. Good stuff, but not as famous as Soylent Green or Planet of the Apes.

I think Soylent Green and Planet of the Apes are the only movies I ever watched with Charlton Heston. >_>

PotA is a classic, and I know the famous scenes from Soylent Green though I haven't seen it, but... Omega Man is right up there with 'em!

HE'S THE LAST MAN. HE'S THE OMEGA MAN. HOLY SHIT!

I guess I have to watch Omega Man then.

Also, this always comes to my mind when speaking about Soylent Green:

Yeah, earlier this day it was awful. Took me twenty minutes to deposit for all accounts I currently take care of.

What's more, I'm having to go hospital tomorrow to have my right eye examined after the opticians suspected I have keratoconus. It might not be that in the end, but I'm mostly concerned about what the outcome will be.

Good luck with that. :/

And from then on?
I think the black album is overrated. It's a good album, but by far not that great (my fav album is Ride the Lightening, btw).

Considering how many actually hate the Black album, it can't be so overrated. However, I don't think it's a great album either. It's good, but not great.

Okay, "overrated by the media" then.

St. Anger... well, if the sound wheren't so shitty it would be a much better album. >_> The songs are pretty intensive and dynamic.

Even without the terrible sound quality, I'd still have trouble listening to the album thanks to FRANTIC TICK TICK TICK TICK TICK TOCK!

Ever heard of the "skip button"? :P
Also, it's the first song on the album, so just start with listening to the second.

Nice. Does that actually do anything? Because I thought it was a protected area already.

Well, now more tourists will come and see it, I guess.

Sounds like a really good idea to put a protected area on such a list then =/

It was a touristic attraction before it got listed, so I guess they know how to take care of tourists.

Yeah we should have gotten to known each other back in the day. So lets get to it then. Also whip-out your strap-on and plow me up the ass until it hurts like hell.

Your mate Cooper is going to be living in a hospital if he passes me in B/P or TPP.

My mate? I hope you're just slipping into Australian slang there... :)

Well, I bet you never thought that ReconRebel would get to retiring from Newgrounds, did you? Now some of the users will never know the magic of his achievement gifs.

You're right but RR didn't retire he went emo and left or the zombiez got him at work. He would have made so gifs annoucing his retirement. He was a huge daily depositor like you and me so I don't have a clue why he would leave, he should give his accounts to me

No you are not. I am coming for my b/p points always > your b/p points.

Two opinions on that one mate. Yours and the correct one :P

My opinion is fact, mate. You shallnt pass me.

Actually, the UK got the album a day before the States since albums are released on Mondays. However, the other European countries may have got this before us since they get new releases on Fridays.

So it would be release on the same day everywhere but the releasing standards for certain countries make it not so you know well a few days isn't a anything to make a deal about, the album is out for the enjoyment.

What I am going to get back on the Regular list I will show you. Btw ban me from the Wi/Ht? Member list and put me back in my place ruling the RCVL.

No can do.

I think you can make an exception.

Yes they should have. Whens the next poll I am going to mass vote again and they will count.

You know, if you decide to fuck around with any future polls, I'll be banning you from voting altogether.

Ah come on now this is newgrounds you have to have mass voting. I will find a way and this time it with be legit. Unless the Poll is two things I like.

Most of the times I would have noticed, I was getting paranoid that you alt was going to pass me in experience. I am aiming for RR now I think he got attacked by the zombiez. The MAO face icons were great dang me for not grabbing a screensnag.

Yeah, he definitely got attacked by zombies. Back in March or April. Sad, sad story. ;_;

And now his account sits dormant. I would take it and start depositing for it after I passed it so Cooper couldn't get a +1 exp rank.

I could have sworn they were playing the 76ers I don't know how stupid I could be when those teams aren't in the same conference. I must have been thinking of two different series.

Ah. Brainfart on your part, then. Gotcha. #;-}>

Well NHL and NBA are over its just baseball and waiting for college and football. Speaking of baseball how is game 3 of the Tigers and Astros going. ::Checks:: dang commercial... poker. 4 to 3 YAY it wasn't a sweep.

I just wish any team expect for Jazz and Spurs to beat the Lakers I mean KOBE. Yeah thos fucking cardinals beat the tigers in the WS that year. Tigers are looking good in the AL Central I hope they can keep it up. They spanked the overrated Cubs in 3 games. Well go Astros.

Thanks, mate. That's very unlike you to wish my team well like that. #;-}>

Hey they are in the Western Conference, if they were in the Eastern or beat Pistons I would bash them like I do to FF. Well next year lets have faith both teams will rebound and make it furthre in the playoffs. As for the Astros as of this moment fuck them.

It was some Japan word for sword or katana that's all I remember what the %u014Ds was probably O with two dots.

There's no "two dots over an O" characters in Japanese, man. That's a European charactre.

Well is there an accent in either direction, I can't think of anything else it would be, the Wii has lots of charactres like that, so I will check, I won't check.

I thought it was the french habitats in Canadian that spell the -er -re.

French and British both do -re. Canada got it from BOTH ENDS AT ONCE. </dirty-sounding>

Those dirty Canadians. They need more American influences in there language. :::Listens to millions of Canadians getting pissed off and throwing a fit::: over this statement.

No need to get hostile and all defensive I am sure lots of Dream Theater fans spell it -re.

Sorry, but Bahamut "corrects" me on it a ton, and now you've started to as well. I feel perfectly justified in my overreaction, thank you very much. #;-}>

Yes he is a bigger fanboy than I am. I corrected you, well I would probably not do that most have been caught up in the moment. Thank You. Have you listened to Black Clouds and Silver Linings by Dream Theatre.

I have gotten a few threats or people saying get a life for trolling which is just what I am craving.

Yes. Trolls feed on just that sort of thing. Lots of tasty food for you on teh YTs, eh?

Its easy there but it is also hard because it is so vast. I would do the same on twitter but fuck that I am not signing up for a site that is swarmed with masses. Its like facebook, twitter and youtube is the only sites the general public goes to.

If I used that method I would still screw up my 100:1 blam to saves alt or something like that I don't get how it prevents gfoxcook from blamming and gfoxclock from saving. Something about not being able to double vote.

Oh, you want the strap-on treatment, too? Form a line, no shoving! :)

Well you might try to blam on Firefox and vote 2 and the flash gets saved. Then will you be screwed.

And since I'm only ever logged in to gfoxcook on Opera and gfoxclock/gfox on Firefox.... that keeps my saves where they belong and my blams where they belong. Capisce?

I see but there is still a chance you get a blam or save that you don't want because the UJ flash was blammed not saved and vice a versa

Only time can tell. Well less than 4,000 saves less near 1K on Clock day. It should be easy getting it before 2010 dont stop for little milestones and you should be fine.

Yep. I just gotta stop pausing at little milestones so much, and I'll be fine, just like you say. That + a good haul on CD09.
