Turns out I was right after all. To be honest, you got me a bit distracted. I know that you can be quite obsessive with something if you really enjoy it. But I never thought you could be THIS obsessed with icon modding. :P

And now you see how dedicated I am to icon/genre modding. I've mostly been working on Clock flashes and I still have plenty more to help with.

Would you be so dedicated if there where only KittyKrew movies left?

Seriously, what else can I do?

I don't know. That's just another thing we don't agree on, I guess.

We really need a list of things we don't agree on.

I think this would be a very large list.

It may be but don't expect me to get it for a long time.

Yeah, you still should get the "Alive in Athens" first. :P

Yeah, Alive in Athens before Alice in Chains' Live. Say, shouldn't you complain about bands that use Live as a live album?

Not too creative either. About as uncreative as all those bands that bring out a live album (or live DVD) with their show they played at the Wacken Open Air and calling it "X destroying Wacken" (or something similar).

Coop is gay. :P

That's common knowledge as well. I always had the impression that "being gay" (or at least "owning a shitload of gay porn") is one of the main requirements for new mods.

Well, yeah.

Tom Fulp is gay. :P

Oh come on. That goes without saying. You could also have said "Faggard is gay!"

I honestly don't mind when I eat. I could eat as early as 4 or as late as 9. My stomach is satisfied either way.

I hate eating late. I usually get hungry around 16:30 and won't like it if I still have to wait until 19:00 (which was twice a week because my mother didn't get home earlier).

Well beside glitch fixing and endlessly creating new maps for the game, I don't see what else they could do.

Well, there is more items and what they've added from the new update actually looks good. These are the kind of weapons they should be making.

Wasn't it like... every character had two unique weapons assigned to them? Did they make it three now?

By the way, I heard rumours that TF2 might become free in the feature. If that happens, I might check it out. Don't know if my laptop can handle it, but we'll see.

I think it can handle it. It may be that low-res models are required.

Alright. I might give it a shot. From next week onwards I'll have my summer holiday anyway, so I probably won't have much to do (unless I go get a job).

I guess it's more of a "surprise beer". Every can tastes different. ^^

Because they saved money on stirring the beer before they bottle it? :p

Might be 4 euros by now due to inflation and shit though. But the best part is, you still get "Einwegpfand" for the crate :p

Yeah, the Ratskrone crate is 5 Euros, and this price INCLUDES the deposit. XD

Much cheaper than most beers. Seriously, did the beer price go up in the past... two years or so? I remember you could get a crate for <10 euros for most beers, but when I walk around the supermarket now I see most are around 13 euros.

I loved eating at Taco Bell like 1 year ago, but when I found out in an article there's only like 10-20% of REAL ground beef in most of their menu, I had to stop eating there. Oh well, fast food restaurants, it isn't that surprising at all. Specially since there are rumors that years ago, in Australia, McDonald's made burgers with Kangaros. Sounds very crazy, but considering all the ammount of secret chemicals and ingredients they already use now, it doesn't sound that crazy at all.

Yeah, you have to listen to Absolute Classic Rock for that, but it's just not got enough Metal on it.

It's Arrow Classic Rock here.

I think they have a Hard Rock / Metal program somewhere in the week, but throughout the rest of the week it's mostly Classic Rock and some Modern Rock too. Although you do hear songs like The Clansman and Run To The Hills come by every now and again which I can appreciate.

I'm just glad there's at least one channel that still plays 60's and 70's songs. Other channels just seem to ignore this music era entirely and often don't go any further back than the early 90's (Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers and the like).

My moms car is from the 80's. Not sure if it even has a cassette player, so I'm pretty much forced to listen to the radio. My dads car has an MP3 player station somewhere, but I don't think I can connect my iPod. I should ask him if he can burn a CD for me someday with my music.

Isn't that stuff like Linkin Park? I do hear them come by relatively often, but I don't know to what degree you can call that 'metal' =/

Linkin Park hard rock? With hard rock I'm more thinking about AC/DC and bands like that.

But yeah, it seems like radio stations are seriously underestimating the size of the fanbase of some metal bands.

It could take a while. I'm a really slow reader :p

It's a damned comic! How long can it take to read?!

I don't know how many pages a chapter is in your book. I've read books which had chapters of 2-3 pages, but I assume it's more in yours.

And in the morning you say? Like before you go to work? You must wake up pretty early then.

Demoman is most suited for swords.

He's the pirate-y guy right? I guess he could do with a saber or something.

Seeing Odyssics post, it IS free for all.

Now let's just hope we don't get thousands of lame dickwads in there ruining the game for everyone.

Yeah, there is that concern but there is something they've introduced called premium accounts. Hopefully we can get servers exclusive to those accounts.

That's only fair to those who payed for the game.

I wouldn't be particulary interested in upgrading, but if the free play sucks then I can always just leave. I won't lose anything.
