The job, or your mind?

My mind. I'm surprised how some friends of mine can manage without having a job since they finished college. Heh, I suppose leaving college halfway did me some favours but I'm sure if I focused on a job right after school I'd be further ahead with my career. Going to college will always be one of the worst decisions I ever made in my life. I can't say THE worst, though but I could say it's the worst so far.

I only lasted 6 months at University and yet, it wasn't one of the worst decisions of my life. I wasted money, wasted time, but I did meet a damned good couple of friends and broadened my horizons. Not everyone could easily move out and fend for themselves at 18. I know that I still live at home with my parents, but if I moved out, I could live comfortably - even moreso than back then.

Yes, they could have cut all the innuendo about Gandalf being a homosexual paedophile and shoe-horned the scouring in there. It was a much better ending.

Lol. The film had half a dozen endings anyway, might as well stuff that one in there too. It could hardly get any worse.

Then I wish to find out. Don't worry if you can't make it this weekend.

This weekend should be no problem (time to make up my mind then ^^), but I won't be able to post an update next weekend, as I will be away.

But how is the music itself? Both albums don't even have many reviews on Metal-Archives. The Brotherhood has two while Rogues en Vogue only has one.

"The War" is a pretty good song, despite the low sound quality. The rest is "Running Wild standard".

Heh, I might be able to tolerate it in that case. Well, if it's weaker than Rivalry then maybe not. By that album you could tell Running Wild were running out of ideas.

If you mean "Rolf" by "Running Wild", then he ran out of ideas after "Under Jolly Roger". I don't think the other band members where really involved in the song writing.
It's amazing how the band always sounds the same, even though it had so many different band members.

I'm pretty sure any job is hard to get right now.

I guess jobs in health care are pretty crisis-proof.

So should police forces but the government made cuts on them. If my house gets fucking burgled, I know who to blame. If anything, with less police to help out with crime, I should have the right to beat any intruders to death.

Only in America.

You can always say it was an act of selfe defence. I'm not really sure if "Mega Flare" falls under "selfe defence", though. ^^

You can try it again but it won't be as funny.

Only because in english the joke isn'T half as funny.

Good thing I don't speak German in that case.

But you are missing out on a great joke!

Remind me.

The episode "Moe'N'a Lisa", season 18.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moe'N'a_Lis a

I think that episode was genuinely bad but there's much worse from that season. The recent Moe episode I thought was good was Eeny Teeny Maya Moe. Considering the idea of the episode, I thought it was going to suck but it was executed quite well. The worst part of the episode was the awful side plot.

I thought the side plot was decent.

No, gold on gold is a perfect mix!

It's like a "white eagle on a white background".

Then you don't know shit about the true value of gold.

But then, I'm not a dragon.

I suppose it's doing fine. It may not get hundreds of thousands of views but it really should be seen as a smaller department than the flash portal. At least it's a better place to upload art than on deviantART, even if NG aren't open to all sorts of crap. It's better that way.

The art portal community does appear to be a bit elitist though, which is a shame.

It may ask for high standards but at least they keep all the MSPaint crap off the portal.

I think YouTube needs to go back to square one. It's the only way to recover from their mess.

That is true. They do often have hilarious commercials, like their latest one. It's a Dutch one, but I'm sure you'll understand :p

Very clever. The part where they are blowing into the bottles playing that one track from Kill Bill, nice touch.

That part cracked us up the first time we saw the commercial.

I didn't link it to Kill Bill yet, despite the fact that I've seen the film multiple times now. It sounded very familiar though, it's probably a pretty famous music piece.

I don't think we have Washinton, but we do have Fuji. I think they're pretty good indeed, but we now buy Kanzi as they appear to be the only apples in season right now.

Washington isn't a variety just a state where they are most grown. The common variety that most people eat here is "Red Delicious". And there are baking apples like "Granny Smith."

I see.

Yeah we also have Granny Smith, which we indeed mostly use for apple pies. Not sure about Red Delicious. I think most people buy Jonagold and Elstar here since they're often the cheapest.

It took me a sec to figure out where it was from and had to read the comments to see the specific track name. But yeah, when you are in a highly competitive market like the beer industry you have to really promote your product to get an edge.

I see.

Yeah we also have Granny Smith, which we indeed mostly use for apple pies. Not sure about Red Delicious. I think most people buy Jonagold and Elstar here since they're often the cheapest.

I never heard of those two varieties. It must be a local European variety or they are just a limited here.

Mayyyybe. Say, got any plans for the London meet? It does say you are attending.

Initially after the Ireland meet, where I got a little too drunk on Guinness :P Viridis and I would dead set on going, but he needs a passport and it'll cost him too much. And I need money for going back to college in September, but if I earn enough money between no and then I'll definitely be going.

Shanus, if you go to the London meet this year, I'll definitely have to go. So basically make sure you get it all sorted so that we can both go and I can drink Guinness with a real Irish person.

You passed 15000 Saves. Way to go!

I thought it stayed almost rigidly faithful to the story, which was what you get when the director is a fan of the graphic novel.

Yeah, I heard the only difference was something with a giant space squid at the ending, but the ending of the film sounded much better to me.

Might be because it's Zack Snyder directing, but come on... I know the guy overuses that slowmo effect in action scenes, but at least give him some credit when he delivers a good film.

I still wanna get that book someday by the way. Been on my list of things to read for years now.

The part when he did that in the Rorschach scene, sliding over the boards and striking the matches was good though. He's a good director and Watchmen was only a positive thing in my books.

Not sure which scene that was again. Was that when he was fighting someone and put him on fire with a can of deodorant (after striking the matches)?

Good idea. I suggest:
-No more claiming stolen videos are your own work

This.

-No more misleading videos that try to direct you to other websites (to watch this and this)

This!

-No more whoring out your own videos to get a higher viewcount.

THIS!

-No more Youtube poop

MOTHERFUCKING THIS!

-And for the love of God get rid of the comment system. The dumbness there is just unbearable sometimes.

This weekend should be no problem (time to make up my mind then ^^), but I won't be able to post an update next weekend, as I will be away.

And you wrote a review as well? That's some productivity. I obviously understand there being no post next weekend.

Sometimes I am very productive. Now I only have to make sure to post the next letter in the Metal-ABC today or tomorrow. ^^

Heh, I might be able to tolerate it in that case. Well, if it's weaker than Rivalry then maybe not. By that album you could tell Running Wild were running out of ideas.

If you mean "Rolf" by "Running Wild", then he ran out of ideas after "Under Jolly Roger". I don't think the other band members where really involved in the song writing.

Nah, Pile of Skulls and Black Hand Inn are great albums.

And yet they sound exactly the same, even though there was a new guitarrist and a new drummer on Black Hand Inn.

So should police forces but the government made cuts on them. If my house gets fucking burgled, I know who to blame. If anything, with less police to help out with crime, I should have the right to beat any intruders to death.

Only in America.

You can always say it was an act of selfe defence. I'm not really sure if "Mega Flare" falls under "selfe defence", though. ^^

There's a problem with self defence in this country. Someone actually got arrested for beating up a burglar who invaded his home.

I guess there's a thin line between "self sefence" and "violent behaviour".

Good thing I don't speak German in that case.

But you are missing out on a great joke!

I already died from the joke once.

Yes, but it loses half of it funnyness (is that even a word?). The rest is lost in translation.

Then you don't know shit about the true value of gold.

Is there a forum which you can access when you have 10000 posts, or are those lies?

To the Opeth fans out there, the band have announced the title for the new album is Heritage. Sounds very Opeth-ish but what really took me by surprise is the album artwork. I find it particularly interesting since it's rather contrast to the rest of the albums.

I guess there's a thin line between "self sefence" and "violent behaviour".

But if someone ties up a family and steals their stuff, they deserve to be beaten to death. The problem with this country is how soft we are towards fucking criminals out of everything. A fair portion of those who are locked up right now deserve capital punishment.

It was awesome, and the trailer for MGS HD was trailer. When it was said that it was coming to Xbox also, that was the highlight for me. Silent Hill HD sounds good as well, I would love to play it but I'm a scared.

Trust me, Silent Hill 2 is like kindergarten Halloween in comparison to Silent Hill 3. A lot may praise Silent Hill 2 for its storyline (which is excellent) and horror value but Silent Hill 3 is scary in almost every way.

I thought it stayed almost rigidly faithful to the story, which was what you get when the director is a fan of the graphic novel.

Yeah, I heard the only difference was something with a giant space squid at the ending, but the ending of the film sounded much better to me.

Yeah - Veidt creates a race of super mutated squid, who he tries to use to convince people of an upcoming alien invasion - in the film, this is substituted for a recreation of Dr. Manhattan's powers, thus suggesting that he could be far worse than any nuclear war.

Might be because it's Zack Snyder directing, but come on... I know the guy overuses that slowmo effect in action scenes, but at least give him some credit when he delivers a good film.

I still wanna get that book someday by the way. Been on my list of things to read for years now.

The part when he did that in the Rorschach scene, sliding over the boards and striking the matches was good though. He's a good director and Watchmen was only a positive thing in my books.

Not sure which scene that was again. Was that when he was fighting someone and put him on fire with a can of deodorant (after striking the matches)?

Yeah, as he slides to a half, he brings up the book of matches and makes a makeshift flamethrower.

I checked your responses and it doesn't seem to be any of those as well. :(

In your desparation to see the facts, you miss the bigger picture. Yes, it is statistical. No, you've not named it yet.

I was tired, I was getting antsy about asking a girl out on a date. What can I say.

MMMMMMMM

It's not the stats of me making mistakes. The countdown would go a lot quicker, otherwise :P

I imagine your Phil Lynott impression, after the 6th or 7th pint, to look something like this...

Nah, I don't have the hair for this.

I'm gonna get such a hard time on the BBS, auto lock all the topics I post on :P

Now would we really do that? Only you can find out.

12 was a very nice number yesterday. Hopefully, I can get myself up there quick enough

Got 8 in the end, it's gonna take me years. I haven't really B/Ped since I got Sup Commander. So it's nice to be back, even though the portal is quite different than I remember.

Yeah, there's a lot less on there and there seems to be more crap.

No, you've forsaken it, no lube for you! >:(

If the stick does exist I may not like to meet mods in person, may not be able to sit right after

Football in Hyde Park?

I've not drunk Guinness for years. I'll dust off the old Phil Lynott impression if that does happen.

This can only end in a drunken mess, oh the memories we'll make and forget :P

That's the spirit!

Morbid Angel, one of the pioneers of death metal decides to do something different with their new album (the first one in eight years) by making techno/industrial/electronica "death metal". Umm, what the fuck is this shit? Good thing I didn't buy the album since if it was on its way to my house, I'd have destroyed the disc right away.

Porcupine Tree - In Absentia

Haha, that happened to me when he made me a forum mod except instead of review modship, I was no longer a genre/icon mod. I was like "Am I not to do this anymore?" Good thing he restored them for me since otherwise, I wouldn't have made 5,000 icons since March. :P

You're another one who will be getting charged up on Guinness at the meet if I have anything to say about it.

True that. I need to fire up some Guinness to get on stage.

It will be amazing, can't wait :D

I'm sure it'll be different. That's what the album cover suggests. Hell, this album will have the highest quantity of tracks in any Opeth album to date.

I'm not sure how much of MGS2 I'll play but MGS3 easily deserves a strong playthrough or two.

I have to finish my subsistence play through of that, great game, Peacewalker will be fun too, as I've not played it

There are a few MGS PSP titles out there but I'm glad Peace Walker is making its way to PS3. Gives me less reasons to pick up a PSP or even the upcoming handheld.

Of course! Help us out with blamming crap and get some blams for your reward.

I tried to blam loads yesterday, but it still got through, only a couple of submissions were what I would consider quality :(

Yeah, we're living in a very sad age right now.

Here's hoping you get your money issues solved.

Well I'll have the money, just how much will it cost and will it be worth my while :P

Will it be worth your while? Think that for a second.

And I thought I'd have been happy enough with Gagsy and Coop. All we need now is a gaming bar and we're all set.

I've always wanted to go to London, and a gaming bar sounds awesome

Nah, I was referring to the gaming bar in Manchester. There needs to be something like that in London but since there isn't, we'll have to wait until the next Manchester meet.

You know, this is the first time I've read something good about Silent Hill 3. People don't really talk about Silent Hill 3, compared to 1 or 2.

The problem is they talk about Silent Hill 2 too much. I even read a review in a magazine saying SH3 is better than the second title and I agree, especially for its horror value. Well, I suppose that's why not many talk about SH3. :P
