I was thinking about it, and I might do it, so I dunno. I was thinking of outfitting Blockhead with a gun and have him and Pico duking it out.

Soysauce has salt in it - so that's actually healthy.

Haha thats why i play TF2! Its better even though i havnt played in sooo long. gotta play again

I never play normal CSS. 95% of the time I'm on Zombie Mod servers, 5% on surf / gungame. For some reason no video game ever made me laugh more than zombie mod. it's weird that humans fighting zombies in a video game can be funny, but some actions are really funny. it's on a server of 50 ppl btw.

Why's this forum so dead !

Maybe you could put the dunked napkin into the bong water. You know, make it more healthy.

Woah...

If you want to weird your eyes out, spend a couple of hours reading through Maddox's old articles, then try to read NG at normal size. Works especially well if you've got a big ass monitor.

Luis, I wasn't sure it was possible, but I believe you just became more of my hero.

I've changed it quite a bit since then and I'd love some constructive criticism / feedback. :)

I like how it looks, but what language is that? I did find it kinda funny being able to go through and read all the headers/sub-headers and nothing else.

Much to cool

"Lorem ipsum" ... placeholder text. Random latin words generated to look like they have a proper grammatical structure.

Really? That's pretty awesome I have to say. It did look kinda funny to me...

Its not bad, its a bit text heavy. Even for a blog. I think the ryan hoffer bit with the alternating text is way too subtle to feel effective. Your color palette is too conservative anyway... take a chance with that header.. go loud with it. Alternatively, if you want to keep it subtle... maybe you can have your first name in non bold... it might provide enough of a contrast to make it a more interesting type relationship

The timestap over the title is kind of strange lookin.. i think it has too much presence.. especially on your right rail. While im on that subject, i think it looks akward having your links with serif fonts.. i can live with the main post being serif but having the links be serif feels random. Maybe you could line up the recent posts area with the baseline of your first headline, i think itd create a nicer negative space between your content and your header.

k im done :)

Probably prevent the greatest economic disaster since the Great Depression. You?

You mean by giving money to the bank CEOs so they can get new Ferraris?

Do you guys know what banks do???

the concept of a bank isn't what failed, it was their business practice. It's their own damn fault they failed and if you keep propping them back up they are going to keep failing. Only the good banks are going to survive this otherwise, which is exactly what you want.

The problem is that when a couple of banks go bankrupt they will drag many other banks along with them (including banks in Europe, Asia etc.). So although I can see where you come from with the survival of the fittest idea, it would be disastrous if thousands of people lose their job and millions lose their money (worldwide). Especially since it was the US dicking about with their mortgages, not Asian/European/African banks. It would be nice if the US could get their shit together before it's too late.

we are heading that way anyway and any bailouts we pass right now are only going to postpone the inevitable, making the crash that much worse when it actually comes about. It was a big problem with their business plan, which really won't be fixed just because we bail them out.

ALL OF THIS BANK MONEY TALK IS JUST CRAZY, LOOK AT THIS PICTURE INSTEAD

Glaiel, I'm just a big dumb, I appreciate what you're saying and I find it all fascinating, really. I can tell you kno what you are talking about. I just can't put in my two cents just yet.

This "survival of the fittest" argument is a nice concept but it doesn't really apply to this situation. These banks failing would remove massive amounts of money from the economy and would just generally decrease confidence in banks, which is something we really don't want.

I like all of the "its their own damn fault" lines going on here, personally i agree, HOWEVER, they're fucking over us friendly canadians as well! We're getting pulled down with their stupid economy and their stupid banks and its retarted. Someone saves me!!

this is lol:
Someone do reasearch on that American senator lady, (might not be a senator), but someone in the gov't or running for gov't, that is trying to pass a law that says that victims of rape must PAY for their own rape kits. (Rape kit is like a kit that tests for sti's and pregnancy and stuff idk really..). So basically, what she's trying to say is:
Oh, you've been raped? That'll be 500$

Right, it was errors before that led up to this, so ya we should start regulating them better now, but that doesn't necessarily mean pull the failing ones out of the hole with government money.
