Jack Nicholson

I love that guy. As Good As it Gets \m/

[br3ad_man]

Batman \m/

[Dog]

Nothing* beats Jack Nicholson as Joker. Except maybe Jack Nicholson in The Shining.


*except clint eastwood

[EightMilesHigh]

I thought The Shining was mediocre, but One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest > so many other films.

[Happymeal]

Nothing*

Anthony Hopkins? Good grief.

I'm going back up to University (college you dick) tomorrow, so my postage will be on the decrease. Meh, you guys only talk about underground bands and star trek, so no big loss.

I'll still post maybe once-twice a week, but yea. get over it.

Oh it's about time, good work.

Why, no, it's his opinion I use too much room on our hard disk. But we had at least 5GB free, so that claim is entirely irrational.

I think you pissed him off one day and now he's striking back.

I find it better that way anyway. Being on here all the time is boring. Sure wish I had somwhere else to be. :(

[Tangy zizzle]

I've got plenty to do, but it's raining so I'm stayin at home/inside.

[br3ad_man]

Get a job. Not babysitting :lol:


That babysitting story of yours had me in stitches for literraly about an hour last night.

[YDload]

Saw the new Willy Wonka movie. It was pretty good: the dialogue is pretty much verbatim from the book, although Burton does add quite a few things here and there. There's a slightly different ending, but it's not like his Planet of the Apes remake where it ruins everything. So don't worry, it's good :)

[Luxor]

:lol:

I actually need a job so bad. I've handed in so many resumes and filled out so many applications. Still no luck.

[Tangy zizzle]

Get a hair cut.

Goddamm commies running the world.

[br3ad_man]

I've done about 4 and no response. I don't get why no one wants me, I'm good.


So anyway, everyone who was coming with me to teh movies tonight bailed. I'm going to see it by myself, I can't wait a week.

[Dog]

Going to the movies by myself feels so weird. I did it once and never again.

[br3ad_man]

I've only done it once too. It's kinda cool but I wouldn't make a regular habit of it.

[The NPC]

Going to the movies by myself feels so weird. I did it once and never again.

Be tough and just sit in the corner of the theater next time.

[EightMilesHigh]

I hate doing that. Going to the movies myself.

I hated doing that too but then NPC told me to be tough and just sit in the corner of the theater now it's AWESOME.

It's the only way to be.

[Broken Bow]

I dont go to movies often.

[br3ad_man]

I just watched 'Sin City', it was mindblowingly awesome though not the best movie to see by yourself at night when you have to walk home in the dark.

[ATM]

^I agree, excellent film. I've seen it 3 times.

[Interstate]

My friend was going on about Sin City a while ago. I still need to see it.

[Bartender]

^I agree, excellent film. I've seen it 3 times.

And I've seen it four. I really want to see it again, but no one else seems to want to go see it. If I was still in Leeds, I'd go on my own, but I'm not.

Glad you liked it, br3ad.

[ATM]

The last movie I saw was War of the Worlds.

[Bartender]

The last I saw at the cinema was Batman Begins. And before that, Kung Fu Hustle.

And last night I watched Apollo 13, for the first time in a long while.

[ATM]

Kung Fu Hustle?

:lol:

[Bukowski]

Rules of Attraction was the last movie i watched.

I've seen it about 20 times, and yeah, it's still the best movie ever.

[Tomahawk]

Well I just watched the Spongebob movie and it blew my mind.

[Happymeal]

Cleanliness is next to managerliness.

[Tomahawk]

That Twisted Sister thing at the end destroyed me. I died.

[Bukowski]

Leaving for Intonation in one hour.

:eek:


Damm you, that line up looks amazing. If only i didn't live 3000+ miles away.

Enjoy it.

[Bartender]

Kung Fu Hustle?

:lol:

Is this surprise at the existence of a movie with that name, or do you know of it and are laughing at me for having seen it?


Well I just watched the Spongebob movie and it blew my mind.

Shockingly good, isn't it :(

[ATM]

Wasn't it that Kung Fu parody movie ? That didn't look very good.

[Iai]

The last movie I went to see at the cinema was the first Lord Of The Rings movie.

[Luxor]

I hate LOTR. I've only watched about 45 minutes of the first one, and it was crap.

[Iai]

It traumatised me so abdly I haven't been near a cinema since.

Heh.

[RockISdead420]

LOTR was better then all the Matrix sequels I think.

[Luxor]

Probably.

I also only watched 10 minutes of Kill Bill. Then removed in from my DVD player, took it back to Rogers Video and demanded my $5 back.

[Tomahawk]

Yeah, LOTR and the Matrix very similar types of movies, so of course you'd make a comparison between them.

[Iai]

Never saw the Matrix sequels.

And I liked Kill Bill. The second one was better though.

ps HP films > LOTR films

[Luxor]

Yeah, LOTR and the Matrix very similar types of movies, so of course you'd make a comparison between them.
They both fall under the "stupid boring ****" category.

[RockISdead420]

^ exactly

I like the new Rufio album...am I gay.

A little bit, yeah.

yeah I Know. Well im on my 3rd listen, its slowly getting worse. Its better then all their other stuff ill give em that much.

edit - nm it sucks

[Bartender]

Wasn't it that Kung Fu parody movie ? That didn't look very good.

Yes, it is, and no, it wasn't all that great. The friend I went with wanted to see it though, and it was the first time we'd met in ages so I didn't bother arguing. I was all for seeing Sin City again.

It was alright, though. Similar to Shaolin Soccer, only less good and with no football.


Is anyone here familiar with 20 Minute Loop? If so, could you let me know how Yawn + House = Explosion is?

My friend told me that in Ireland they use Explosions in the Sky songs in beer commercials.

20 minute Loop are amazing. Is that the album with Jubilation on it?

[Bartender]

Nope. If it were, I probably wouldn't hesitate buying it, as that's an amazing song :)

NP Futurama. With the commentary on..they're talking about how hot Leela is in this episode.

[ATM]

Ah, well I have the album with that on it.

It's quite good, you should try and find it.

Futurama is great. I love Dr. Zoidberg.

I can't believe they cancelled it, though :(

It's good. I can't find it anywhere though, I've only got a download. I don't like it as much as Decline of Day (the one with Jubilation on it), but it's still good.

[GaggingOrder]

I haven't read Harry Potter in a long time. I loved it, but now I don't care. I'm busy reading other books. My friend let me borrow HP5, but I don't care.

In the words of a councelor who picked up my friend by the nipples with 2 pairs of pliers: "peanut butter and jelly is essential at every meal."

I'm totally new to this thread/area of the forums.

I listened to my first Morrissey song yesterday, it was a video...it was called I Forgive You Jesus or some bull**** like that. How ****ing arrogant is that prick...I Forgive You Jesus, those lyrics right there are worse than Eminem's any NWA or Slipknot whatever. I will probably never listen to another Morrissey song for the rest of my life just because of the sheer arrogance of that guy. If he didn't write the song..well nevermind he still sang the song.

[br3ad_man]

He makes some good music, but I hate the guy, he's an arse.

[Jam2Me]

I was gonna say reccomend me some music, but that would be breaking my pact of never listening to him. :\

Does that include his music with the Smiths? Your missing out if so.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah listen to The Smiths, that shouldn't break your pact. Blood Brothers gig today, w00t.

[Kyle]

im happy with number 2, I love that song.

[Iai]

It looks like a decent list, but round about #73 they ran out of good ideas and starting including crap.

[Parfait]

I think it's fairly well done. A Fear song, a NoMeansNo song, a Stranglers song, and a 999 song would have been nice.

[Iai]

They didn't include The Stranglers?

[Parfait]

I think Fear is actually the grossest oversight. "I Love Livin' in the City" and "New York's Alright If You Like Saxophones" are entirely classic.

[Iai]

I can understand them missing Fear from a commercial persepective (meaning they simply may not have heard them), but I was under the impression that The Stranglers were the most successful punk group of all time.

Maybe that's just the UK.

My favorite local band is coming back and playing thier homecoming show in vancouver tonight after being away for like 3 months on tour.

I'm painfully excited.

[YDload]

It was an okay list I guess. I don't agree with the order too much, but they have Bastards of Young, Pink Turns to Blue, and two Minutemen songs. That's pretty good I guess.

[The NPC]

Wow, no "Academy Fight Song", "Peking Spring", "Progress", or "Mica" in the Top 100. Interesting.

You don't list which bands wrote and recorded those songs because you want us to be scratching our heads.

You don't list which bands wrote and recorded those songs because you want us to be scratching our heads.

That would be correct (all of them are Mission of Burma). I think you should start posting as Zappa more often though.

Also, none of the Fall's music was mentioned which is odd.

[Zappa]

I don't generally lump Mission of Burma or The Fall in with the sorts of bands that made that list. It was almost all '77 stuff and 80s hardcore.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Went to an Anastasia concert earlier, supporting by cabaret superstar Tony Christie. It was... not the type of thing I'd enjoy, but she obviously has fans.

Caught a Duran Duran gig on TV too, which was cool, though I'm almost certain the entire band was lip-synching.

[YDload]

Holy crap, the link that Zmev posted for the list has about a hundred other music-related lists underneath it.

I'm tempted to look, but then I'll just be severely angered.

*looks up top 100 bassists anyway* :(

[EightMilesHigh]

Totally off-topic, I saw Charlie & The Chocolate Factory today.

[Daniel!]

I saw it yesterday. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Johnny Depp was pretty good.

[Dog]

I'm going to see it tomorrow. That or Wedding Crashers.

[A Goonie]

I was gonna see Charlie and the chocolate factory but evil peoples canceled on me :upset:

[Zmev]

I have no intent to see that movie. Hot Topic sells shirts with golden tickets (don't ask me why I know what they have a hot topic...i have a....little sister).

[br3ad_man]

I had the best weekend ever. I saw Sin City on Saturday night which was amazing and then saw The Blood Brothers the next day. The only thing that topped it off was that I met Johnny Whitney who was one of the nicest guys I've ever met.

[GaggingOrder]

My weekend was utter bullshit. I hate weekends.

[Zappa]

Yesterday I got up earlier than usual to go rehearse for a non-paying band gig about a half hour away. Because very few people showed up (we had no tubas, 1 trombone, etc), the gig was called off, but I still spent an hour and a half sight-reading lame band arrangements of crappy show tunes (Andrew Lloyd Webber should die). Grr.

[YDload]

It's really good. The beginning parts with poor Charlie Bucket have Conor Oberst singing in the background, and the insane boat ride is complemented by The Mars Volta :)

[br3ad_man]

I like Andrew Lloyd Webber. Our school is huge on musical theatre, which I am not. It's good being involved in productions though, they are of quite a high standard.

[Zappa]

Are you serious Yd? Cause if you are Tim Burton needs to get a life.

[YDload]

Are you serious Yd? Cause if you are Tim Burton needs to get a life.

Hell no, I'm just playing with Zmev's hatred of those two bands.

It's a Danny Elfman score, naturally.

[br3ad_man]

I thought he was serious but then I realised he was poking fun at Zmev which was when I laughed.

[EightMilesHigh]

Danny Elfman owned this film with his score.

I don't know why all the Oompa-Loompas were East Indian, though.

[Zappa]

Phew.

[br3ad_man]

Danny Elfman is the bomb.

I'm so amazed by Sin City that I have resolved to see it at least twice more in the theaters and I'm making all my friends see it this weekend.

[Zappa]

SC was a cool flick.

[masada]

I went to "sleep" at 1, or so, and I couldn't sleep at all. So, I guess I've been sitting on my computer since...5:00. Hmm.. what's on my desk today!

You Are the Quarry, Daydream Nation, Digital Ash in a Digital Urn, Singles, De-Loused in the Comatorium, Good News for People Who Love Bad News, Frances the Mute, Fevers & Mirros, I'm Wide Awake It's Morning, Lifted or the Story is in the Soil Keep Your Ear to the Ground, Murmur, OK Computer. There is a brass-slide, a bunch of pens, printer, fan, tissue box, cd-intake section of my stereo, remote for stereo, glass with a little bit of grape juice left, speakers that don't work, floppy disks, my cat, a stapler, a map to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame that's probably been in the same spot for a year or two, lint, a modem, headphones, those CD case things, a drawer, my mouse, monitor, a purse, batteries, nail filers, sunglasses, paper, blank CDs, on of those disks that comes with GuitarOne....

[br3ad_man]

I want a slide...I'm not sure if I should get brass, steel or glass though.

[masada]

The one I have is one that my father made in the 70s. It's not really the greatest, but I like using it. I would suggest glass, probably. The glass ones sound a lot smoother.

I would also suggest raising the action, if you haven't already. Slide is a lot better to play in open tuning, especially E and G, since you can barre with the slide across the whole fret, and it's basically a full chord.

[br3ad_man]

Yeah I picked up a piece of plastic tubing once and used it as a slide on my acoustic, it was awesome but i need a real slide. My brother was going to buy me one but then he bought me bass strings instead.

[masada]

You can get slides in the U.S. anywhere from, $15-20 and upwards. At least, nice ones are that much. I don't know how much they would be there, though.

[br3ad_man]

I dunno, I'll have to have a look. I might see if any mates have one first.

Good night everyone.

[masada]

Good Night My Love.

[JonM]

There's a glassblowing company around here that makes both pipes and slides. I always wanted to get a matching set, but their slides are like $25.

[Broken Bow]

I'm wide awake, it's 8:17am.

UUGghggghghuhgugghh

[masada]

u r dum

plz dye

[Luxor]

I'm wide awake, it's 8:17am.

UUGghggghghuhgugghh
Geez I know what you mean. I just woke up... Oh, wait... It's 12:43. Silly me. ;)

[Happymeal]

If I wake up after 9, I feel like I've wasted my day.

[Luxor]

Well, maybe if I actually had somewhere to be, I'd feel that way as well.

[Happymeal]

You know what they say. The early bird gets the err.. birdseed.

[masada]

I woke up at 5. Normally, I would just now be waking up.

Isn't that mondo, or what?

Shyeah.

[Dog]

I remember when I was a kid my favorite drink was called Mondo. It was good stuff.

[ATM]

I'm filling out a 37 page survey to work at Borders. Ugh

Omar a Rodriguez-Lopez is hot.

i would have to agree

[Dog]

Hi. Intonation Festival was mind-blowing. That is all.
How awesome were Tortoise?

[JonM]

Hi. Intonation Festival was mind-blowing. That is all.

You know what you are? You're a bastard bitch. You're a big bastard bitch, that's what you are. Just a no good bastard bitch... face.

[Little Man being Erased]

Hi.

[Happymeal]

Hi.

You sound like you got laid.

[EightMilesHigh]

You sound like you got laid.

You can deduce that much from a "hi?"

Wowzorz.

[Little Man being Erased]

I should only be so lucky.

[Dog]

Wowzorz.
It's in his eyes.

[Luxor]

What's this? IhateUsernames finally has a job after a year and a half? A reason not to be here! woo!

[Canadian-Guy]

Cool, what'll you be doing?

np: Fugazi - Waiting Room. Great song.

[pikester]

really really great song.

[Broken Bow]

Geez I know what you mean. I just woke up... Oh, wait... It's 12:43. Silly me. ;)

I had no sleep

I still don't.

[GaggingOrder]

I went to sleep at 7:00 PM and woke up an hour ago at 1:30 AM. I love sleeping lately.

[Zmev]

New avatar good yes?

[br3ad_man]

No.

[Interstate]

I went to a really crap BBQ yesterday. I was tired (I've had real trouble sleeping the past few nights) and kinda depressed but I was forced to go anyway. Drove my friends to get some stuff for the BBQ, hung out playing football (soccer) with a couple of friends for a bit, ate a burger and left.

In other news, I'm still waiting to hear whether I was successful in getting the bank job that I had my interview for a week today :(

[br3ad_man]

Waiting sucks. I'm still waiting for an interview from a video shop. I put in my resume ages ago and even called to see what was up. They didn't know :(

[Happymeal]

Anyone tried out the slsk 157 test version? I'd like to, but I might lose my 1500+ queued files when I install it =/

[GaggingOrder]

New avatar good yes?
Looks like a guy in leather pants shitting blood. Or Darth Vader without a head. :amaze:

[A Goonie]

oh how the imagination works :rolleyes:

[Luxor]

Pfft.. NOW they're telling me that they'll call me if I got the job. They made it sound like I already had it. Oh well, it's just some crappy grocery store parttime job anyway.

So how is everyone on this fine afternoon?

[Zappa]

I'm very well. Working on a new song that I quite like and that makes today great.

Not too good. My mum and sister have been bitching all frickin day. It's driving me up the wall. I'm gonna go down to the coast on Thursday hopefully with a few friends before I go away on Friday.

[Happymeal]

Just watched Constantine on DVD, then we had a blackout for around 10 minutes after the movie.

How is it? I've been skeptical about renting it out because I've heard mixed reviews about it.

[Luxor]

I wish I had some sort of recording program. I'd record stuff alllll day. I don't have the cash for that stuff though. :(

[Zappa]

I pirated Cool Edit Pro 2.0 on soulseek.

[Luxor]

Hmmm.. Did you also pirate your microphone. :p

[Iai]

How many negative ratings do you think I'll get if I absolutely TRASH Plastic Ono Band on Sputnik?

[Zappa]

Hmmm.. Did you also pirate your microphone. :p

I just use a Radioshak computer microphone (but not that often). I record mostly with my 4 electronic keyboards, which I run right into the soundcard.

[Zappa]

Man, I can't seem to end this tune to my liking.

[Happymeal]

How is it? I've been skeptical about renting it out because I've heard mixed reviews about it.

It's above average for me. The acting's not fantastic and the action's a bit lacking but at least the story strays from the usual end-of-the-world gig.

[Robert Crumb]

Keanu Reeves has evolved beyond acting.

How many negative ratings do you think I'll get if I absolutely TRASH Plastic Ono Band on Sputnik?

Probably a lot. But if you does it fair and honest, I've got yer back.

[biografiend]

I finished the new Harry Potter, it was sortof mediocre. I totally knew who was going to die.
