FUNNY STORY, A FRIEND OF MINE WHO FINALLY CAME INTO SOME MONEY WENT AND BOUGHT TF2 OFF STEAM AS A GIFT FOR ME, SO I HAVE IT NOW!!! IRONICALLY AS WELL I'M MOSTLY PLAYING MEDIC!!!

If it's possible, then hell yeah!

Of course it's possible: write songs with meaningful lyrics, awesome riffs, kick-ass drumming, an all-round excellent piece of music, then stick in a 2 minute vuvuzela solo!

Wow, I never thought it was that easy to do.

The idea is simple, but far from easy.

Thus ending Newgrounds? :o

Therefore ushering in the age of Bahamutgrounds!

I'm not worthy of having a site named after myself.

Sure you are, you could even Mega Flare dissenters who don't think you're worthy.

Milestone:

Well almost all of the meets are on Saturday mornings, but I have to get into the city at 12:30 each Saturday for orchestra rehearsals. If the meets are early enough I can make it to rehearsal on time but some of the meets are simply too late. If I miss three meets I can't be on the team, and I'm not about to skip a rehearsal.

So obviously orchestra is more important than track to you. Well, you have to get to whatever is more important I guess.

Fortunately it looks like I can do both, provided the meets don't run late and there isn't much traffic. We'll see.

Well you run sprints right? You have the 3,200 relay and high hurdles before the 100 meter comes up. Even with a little bit of traffic you might be able to get there in time for your events.

Ah, that makes sense. Endurance is important though, so you might want to consider a...physical therapist? Did I get it right this time?

Yeah, it would be right if there was currently anything wrong with my legs. I think the problem that I have now is being lazy. :P I promise myself to make a schedule that includes cardio when college starts up again.

Frankly, I wouldn't care a lot about that. Although I gotta agree with you in some way, I think everybody still likes or does something when they were kids. My dad still enjoys a lot Tom & Jerry each time they show it on TV. I still enjoy the songs of my favorite singer for kids each time I listen to them (Sir-Nuts knows who I am talking about :P).

I understand that. I watch cartoons all the time and do things that I do when I was younger, but the thing is these guys weren't even a band when she was a kid.

jesus, I don't remember. I think a year? I remember we got a free dinner and a night at the super swank hotel we were both working at. (like $600 a night rooms, stars stay there when they come to the area kind of hotel)

So you really married young and early then. I had been with my girlfriend for six years before I asked her.

oh, that was $10k of our own money. Her parents paid for some of our reception and my parents pitched in a little bit for flowers and the cake. The rest of was like, "oh, we saved up enough for the dress." pay for that. a couple of months later we saved enough up to pay for the deposit for the band. a couple of months later the deposit for the cake. ect..

I guess it sounds like a lot now because I don't have a job that pays very much. After college is out and I can get a better job with my degree it won't be such a big number anymore.

I checked out a couple of police agencies to see what their qualifications were and yeah, it seemed to be 60 credits worth of college or an associates degree or 2 years of military service. If you have a good GPA and no felonies you should be fine.

I do have both of these. Like I said, I'll see how the job hunt turns out and if I don't like it I'll try for this degree. My body is built to take a beating so some sort of job like this would be the best.

I know for sure I'm playing semi-pro football next year so hopefully I can find a job that doesn't interfere with that. If I do find a job that interferes with it I won't be able to play ball.

When I went to a community college out of high school I wanted to do business, but I did a liberal arts program just in case. It was a good decision because when I got my associates degree and transferred I applied to the criminal justice program of my new school...but by the time I showed up for orientation at the new school I wanted to do political science with a pre-law minor. When I realized I couldn't do that in time to graduate on time entering into my senior year I changed it to social science. Lots of changes early on and really late in the game. You'll likely change your mind a few more times before you graduate.

I've already changed my mind twice. I went from a History major to a Social Work major to my current Elementary Education major.

She'll not only want a set of jonas brothers sheets, she'll want a set in 900 thread count Egyptian cotton, a set in silk, a set in blue to match the bed skirt...

It starts with the bed set, then it'll move into shower curtains, and...

Iron Maiden - Dance of Death

Blind Guardian - At the Edge of Time

This album has the most epic intro ever.

It sure is. I couldn't get over how epic the intro was when I first heard it. I seem to be noticing a trend with this year's albums starting off with awesome intros. First Overkill's Ironbound with The Green and Black, then Blind Guardian's At the Edge of Time with Sacred Worlds and now Iron Maiden's The Final Frontier with Satellite 15.

Right. Those CDs are kinda nice and always a nice tribute to other artists, but I dislike how the media always treats those cover albums as "new material" from the band that brings out one.

Most places I know don't advertise them as real albums. They are well stated as cover albums.

While we're on the subject of those two albums, Helloween's Metal Jukebox has silly tracks and should have had more METAL songs while Garage Inc. I'll pick up at some point.

I would hate to see them go, but we just have to face it: They won't be around forever.

This is very true. These bands may have been around for a few decades but they can't last forever. :(

It's either that or actually find a monitor that won't explode from seeing epically awesome stuff.

Maybe the company which build it can release some sort of firmware update to prevent monitors from exploding.

They have to make a specific one for you since it seems you're the only one getting monitors exploded. :P

Sure December might be a stretch but I don't think Tom will wait until Aug 2011 even if it's not 100 percent complete.

It just depends how they are with the rest of the site. I heard they might take another 12 months to finish it but it'll all be worth it and I don't mind making icons as long as I can. As long as the others are hard at work as well and will get all the icons done eventually, I'm good.

I can't believe I missed that one. The only thing I'm wondering is why I'm wearing a shirt.

Because dragons have style of course.

But the shirt was only part of the human disguise.

Nice job.

Believe it or not, there's a fair amount of females on this site.

I don't believe it!

That's what Victor Meldrew would say about females on Newgrounds.

Actually, we could do with more.

Yes. I think I have almost convinced my gf to make an account.

Almost? Sounds like you didn't try hard enough to get her on here. :P

Then get those stars and so on.

But that takes aaaaages. Unless I do the 5 minute speedrun, but I can't do that long jump trick :(

Just get all the stars again to pass the time.

Just get the occasional new game or find a newer game that's not too expensive. Also, I thought you HAD a Wii.

I had one for a while, but it actually belonged to some friends of mine. They didn't play that much anymore though and it stood in their way, so I took it from them for a couple of months.

So that's how you were able to play those Wii games you said you played.

Anyway, I guess I could do that, but meh... I don't know, I think I enjoy classic games more. Somehow I got the feeling that they don't make that many platformer/adventure games anymore, which is my favorite genre.

Besides Mario, platformers aren't doing very well these days. There are good indie platformers out there but the genre as a whole isn't dominating the gaming industry like it used to.

You needed to consider the time I take to watch the flashes as well. ;) I went through 150 Clock Day flashes on Tuesday and spent most of the day doing them. Today, I'm going to see if I can take down Clock Day 2005 in one big swoop.

Again, imagine all the awesome stuff you could instead in that amount of time.

Yeah, like making icons and helping out for the future of Newgrounds.

The only reason why I'll be crying is if she cheats on me again!

Oh and she will! I bet she's secretly got an eye on Coop and is pulling that old 'make him jealous by dating his friend' trick.

She did have some interest in Slappy a while ago but I made sure she only had one true love which was me.

I tried asking him that but he couldn't hear me at the time and then got caught up with other people. I had very little time to talk to him and there was a few other things I wanted to say such as wondering how the office reacted when I won the Behemoth chicken.

Oh well, I guess he is a busy man. I bet everyone wanted to take a picture with him.

But not as much as Luis wanting to take a picture of myself and him.

Finally we can make a move with taking over the audio portal. Although, I remember saying to Coop at the meet that it would be great if he was an audio mod but he wasn't too keen on it. :P

Damn. Oh well, we're just gonna take over the audio portal fair and square then. By being as epic as Queen!

If that's even possible.

Then we'll take over the hitcharts in the UK and USA, kicking those attention whores like Lady GaGa and Justin Beiber out.

Finally we can do something about these "artists".

While it probably would be annoying to have a doctor pestering you to have surgery, it might be beneficial to know what exactly you have.

Alright, if you're sure then I have nothing else to say about it.

Is that a good thing? That's not something I'd want to look anything like. Anyway yes, definitely get a corresponding suit. Then post a picture of the entire ensemble.

Damn, I don't have the hat with me today. I'm working in the suit. >:(

It'll be so awesome, I can feel it. You should count the number of comments you get from co-workers.

Three - all of my co-workers seemed to love it.

Oh and looking the dog's bollocks is a great thing.

Okay, just making sure. Apparently I'm not very familiar with foreign slang.

Well, you learn something new every day.

Oh I do. According to my Snapple cap, "French author Michel Thayer published a 233-page novel which has no verbs." I can't even imagine.

Track is in the spring. Right now I'm doing cross country which is usually about 3200m. The meets start at different times in the morning though, and that's when it gets difficult. Also the meets are before the rehearsals so as soon I'm done racing I have to leave.

Level 12.

Thanks for voting, sushi13! Your experience has been automatically deposited!

With that vote, you now have 8,700 experience points. You need 0 more to get to Level 29. The next Grounds Gold day begins in 23 hours, 41 minutes, and 40 seconds.

The more experience points you have, combined with BLAM and PROTECTION points, the more your vote is worth!

Damn I hate this level icon and I'm stuck with it for the next 2 months. Lucky that the Level 30 icon is probably my favorite of them all so it'll make up for this.

I reached Level 4 today lol,

I think I've said that before, but I have to finish my studies until 2012. And I don't even know if that includes my diploma thesis or if I get some extra time for that... ^^

Thesis? Well I heard you generally have to finish that at the end of the summer, or at least that's what they have to do here. But I know a lot of people are waiting and searching for months before they finally get their thesis ideas approved.

I still haven't thought about what I should do for my thesis.

Here even the Bachelor students don't like the bachelor. And I can see why: It's way too much stuff to do in a too short amount of time. Plus, they HAVE to be in all the lectures because they all have a compolsory attendance. Very annoying.

Heh, luckily I don't have a compulsory attendance for lectures. If so, I might have quit my studies some time ago cause listening to all those boring ass lectures that cover 10 lines of text in 2 hours would've driven me crazy.

Or lectures that cover three whole books in 10 minutes. Those are shitty as well.

Unpossible. Unless we'll call ourselves "Scheepskamelen".

No, google images suggests that it has something to do with ships, not sheeps.

Brilliant sketch by one of Hollands finest comedian groups. I don't think you can follow it though.

Nope. I could only understand a few words here and there.
But once again I am amazed how any dutch person can say "german is a hard language" while dutch sounds much harder (at least to me ^^).

I just bet you would've done that as a German guy.

http://www.forvo.com/word/swaffelen/

Now that I heard the correct pronunciation, it is pretty close to a sch at the beginning actually =/

People here do both the "schwaf" and the "swaf", so I guess there's no real "correct" pronounciation.

Maybe not. It doesn't really sound like a dutch word anyway, more like something people from Aruba brought over.

Until now I didn't even know that a place called "Aruba" even exists. XD

Yep, like the name Achmed contains the ggg sound. In Spanish the J is also quite similar to ggg but I can't think of any other languages.

Scots and gaelic, maybe. And welsh of course. The "LL" is a similar sound.

The LL? Lol.

Yep. You can see it in names like "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll llantysiliogogogoch" (I bet NG puts some spaces in there). XD

Interesting - I tend to go very Death Metal when that happens at the moment.

If it continues to be like this, you might want to see a doctor. But maybe your bone is just oversensitive at the moment.

I haven't nudged it for months and I have no need for the doctor in this respect. Murphy's first law states that I will knock it over the next few days, which would be about right.

If Murphy had it's way, you must have bumped it right after you finished this post.

Yeah, I've got so many players on the short-term DL, it looks like I should drop one or two of them...

Rodriguez
Niemann
Silva
Pettitte

That's the problem - some of them should be back in a week or so, otherwise, they're just clogging up my bench...

Sure you are, you could even Mega Flare dissenters who don't think you're worthy.

I don't want to take all the credit. I want to dedicate the new site to the whole of Wi/Ht.

Wi/Htgrounds doesn't exactly roll off the tongue though, why not Bahamutgrounds where Wi/Ht is given greater importance?

Track is in the spring.

Yeah, what am I thinking.. I knew that.

Right now I'm doing cross country which is usually about 3200m. The meets start at different times in the morning though, and that's when it gets difficult. Also the meets are before the rehearsals so as soon I'm done racing I have to leave.

Hm, that's odd to see them in the morning. The only time I ever saw a cross country meet was after school during my football practice. Part of their course was to run around our practice field. The other part was a mile hike up a mountain. :P

I do my cardio in the morning because it's cooler and it doesn't interfere with my schedule. Why am I saying this, everyone runs in the morning. Nothing beats a morning run.

Here's what my workout schedule will look like when I have the colleges gym in walking distance. I know the numbers might not make sense, but I know what it means and it's all that matters. :P It would be my first week's workout with the weights increasing every week.

Funny. Whenever I hear the name "Barclay" I think of something to drink first. Propably becuase of "Baileys".

Turns out there was a minor error on their end. My mum told me someone else was having the same problem around the same time I tried to draw money. I drew cash later on with no troubles. Ah well, I'm just glad I was able to get money in the end.

It sure is. I couldn't get over how epic the intro was when I first heard it. I seem to be noticing a trend with this year's albums starting off with awesome intros. First Overkill's Ironbound with The Green and Black, then Blind Guardian's At the Edge of Time with Sacred Worlds and now Iron Maiden's The Final Frontier with Satellite 15.

Yes, the intro of Final Frontier is great as well, but not as great as At The Edge of Time's intro.

Of course not, Sacred Worlds is beyond awesome. However, do you have any thoughts on The Green and Black?

Or others just don't look at such awesome things I (have to) look at.

Or the others aren't unlucky like you are. :P

Oh my, you certainly have my admiration.
I can never seem to stick to a workout regime aside from fitting in a 3 mile walk around once a day, and of course depositing my experience on the Interwebs.
I believe the longest I've ever stuck with a routine was for around 8 months, and that was back when I was 15.

100 per day is a stretch for me and 150 is just insane. After 70, I start to lose focus, but if he can do it consistently without losing his sanity, then more power to him. :)

It just depends how they are with the rest of the site. I heard they might take another 12 months to finish it but it'll all be worth it and I don't mind making icons as long as I can. As long as the others are hard at work as well and will get all the icons done eventually, I'm good.

Do you know what the scope of the redesign is? I've always assume that it was just more geared to the Portals (Flash, Art, Audio and Lit) and not inclusive to the BBS. Do you know if it's everything?

But the shirt was only part of the human disguise.

So the skin was attached to the shirt? What?

Actually, the hub page is a better place to find pictures

I'll check there too after I finish 123bee. A celebratory pic.

You mean the Headcases one? Lol, yeah I heard it was kinda lame like that. Old action heroes being old. Jet Li and Mickey Rourke being the only ones with a good role I heard, but they didn't get that much screentime. Or not enough.

Ah, I might have to watch it then. And not just on DVD...

Well I went to see it at the cinema yesterday. I'd say the movie is not as awesome as the cast makes it seem to be, but you still get what you pay for. Which is long action scenes, random explosions and a funny joke here and there.

Still, you're probably not missing much if you decide not to go and see it.

I would've expected Jason Statham would do well (actually he was my only hope that this movie would actually turn out to be good, instead of a B movie action flick thing), but I've heard nothing of him.

The only thing I know Statham for is knobbing Kelly Brook a few years back.

You need to go watch Snatch. then. Seriously, it's a brilliant movie with Jason Statham. It also features Brad Pitt (as a boxing pikey), Vinnie Jones and some other British bastards.

I think you will also like Crank.

Too bad Jean Claude van Damme passed for The Expandables. He could've saved the movie! (well, I heard he is playing in some decent movies lately)

Yeah, like this movie could have been saved by a man like Van Damme.

I'm convinced he could have!

No not really, although this movie might have worked better with B actors.

In any case, this needs to be redone because this idea is just too awesome. Next time they gotta bring in guys like Vinnie Jones and Clint Eastwood as well. And let it be written by Robert Rodriguez or Quentin Tarentino.

Or just gas the lot of them?

Like... put em in a gas chamber?

No way man. That'd be a disaster for everything that's awesome in Hollywood.

Yes. I think I have almost convinced my gf to make an account.

Almost? Sounds like you didn't try hard enough to get her on here. :P

I tried hard, but it shouldn't feel like I'm forcing her. Anyway, she seems interested in a lot of games people upload here and she might like to collect medals. She's a bit intimidated by the forum though, cause people post so many sexual/edgy/weird topics in the general forum.

But that takes aaaaages. Unless I do the 5 minute speedrun, but I can't do that long jump trick :(

Just get all the stars again to pass the time.

But I got better things to do! My to-do list is probably longer than my list of tracks in I-tunes at the moment.

I had one for a while, but it actually belonged to some friends of mine. They didn't play that much anymore though and it stood in their way, so I took it from them for a couple of months.

So that's how you were able to play those Wii games you said you played.

Yep! It was only Mariokart, Brawl and Wii Sports though. Oh and Wii Play (which SUUUUUCKS).

Last week I also played Guitar Hero for the first time.

Anyway, I guess I could do that, but meh... I don't know, I think I enjoy classic games more. Somehow I got the feeling that they don't make that many platformer/adventure games anymore, which is my favorite genre.

Besides Mario, platformers aren't doing very well these days. There are good indie platformers out there but the genre as a whole isn't dominating the gaming industry like it used to.

Nope which is too bad. It was at its prime during the N64 and Playstation era, but it sort of died when Rare moved to Microsoft. I wouldn't say that that's the only thing that caused it, but I think it did play a big role.

Again, imagine all the awesome stuff you could instead in that amount of time.

Yeah, like making icons and helping out for the future of Newgrounds.

Yes, or... doing things you put on your to-do list. Like jumping a burning motorcycle through a hoop made of black mamba's. Stuff like that.

Oh and she will! I bet she's secretly got an eye on Coop and is pulling that old 'make him jealous by dating his friend' trick.

She did have some interest in Slappy a while ago but I made sure she only had one true love which was me.

You mean SlapHappy? Well just as easy as she turned her back to Slappy, she can turn her back to you.

Damn. Oh well, we're just gonna take over the audio portal fair and square then. By being as epic as Queen!

If that's even possible.

Yeah, I don't know if Coop will be as good as a frontman as Freddy Mercury was.

Then we'll take over the hitcharts in the UK and USA, kicking those attention whores like Lady GaGa and Justin Beiber out.

Finally we can do something about these "artists".

Yeah it's about time somebody does something. This attention-whoring bullshit has gone on for too long.

Fortunately I don't think I have to think about that. I believe I just got a major project at the end of my third year that's suppose to require all of my knowledge. No need to think about a thesis or anything.

Heh, luckily I don't have a compulsory attendance for lectures. If so, I might have quit my studies some time ago cause listening to all those boring ass lectures that cover 10 lines of text in 2 hours would've driven me crazy.

Or lectures that cover three whole books in 10 minutes. Those are shitty as well.

Oh I don't think I ever got those. Generally we only have one book per course and we seldom ever use it anyway. That's why I stopped buying books this year, cause I'm not gonna pay $50 for something that's still in plastic after I've finished the course.

Brilliant sketch by one of Hollands finest comedian groups. I don't think you can follow it though.

Nope. I could only understand a few words here and there.
But once again I am amazed how any dutch person can say "german is a hard language" while dutch sounds much harder (at least to me ^^).

I know dutch is hard cause a lot of grammar rules don't make sense and have tons of exceptions.

But I believe German grammar is actually very similar. Why we might call it hard is because we have to learn the German grammar well in our schools while for the subject 'dutch' we don't have to do all that. We mostly get text interpreting, which I guess is why dutch people make so many mistakes in their own grammar.

Maybe not. It doesn't really sound like a dutch word anyway, more like something people from Aruba brought over.

Until now I didn't even know that a place called "Aruba" even exists. XD

=/

Never heard of Bonaire and Curacao either I assume?

The LL? Lol.

Yep. You can see it in names like "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll llantysiliogogogoch" (I bet NG puts some spaces in there). XD

Heh, isn't that the longest town name in the world?
