Jom, I just want to give you another :thumb: on your Bob Seger thread.

Thanks. Too bad only five people bothered to post in it :upset:

Heh, poor Madey. One time I got one of those things, but it was a form I had to fill out. It was total giveaway questions, like "Who is your current crush?" and "What's your favorite day?" and so on and so forth. Whoever truthfully answers those things and doesn't expect a prank is dumb as a rock.

Later: surprise! You just got e-punk'd. [so-and-so] knows that your secret crush is [this person], and that you're going to go [to this place] for a date after you ask him/her out, and it's all going to happen on [this day]. Don't you feel stupid?!

So, what I do is fill out complete BS answers. It's fun hearing from those people later on.

I'm just disappointed. Yeah, I wrote a bit, but not as much as I do for my reviews. I think people so desperately wanted to say "tl;dr" but were afraid that Travis' influence spans outside of The Pit or something.

OKAY. Try to guess her (http://myspace-712.vo.llnwd.net/00137/21/77/137547712_l.jpg) age.

For the record, she wasn't very attractive. Too much eyesomething. Eyeshadow? Mascara? Either way, I'd hit it. With a two-by-four.

"Guys, we're gonna drink till the statue of liberty is hot"

My uncle had never seen Family Guy, and I made him sit down and watch it. He was cracking up.

[RCA]

How are you guys liking the new season?

[Illmatic]

Hell yeah he was cracking up. it's only the best show ever.

Best show ever? Let's not go too far.

[ATM]

It's pretty good so far.

My dad rented Team America the other night and made my grandfather watch it. I walked in during the sex scene, and my grandfather was laughing pretty hard.

[Illmatic]

Team America is a great movie.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Zomg, Jamais Vu. :-/

Anyway, I think that Comedy Central Presents is my favorite show atm. It's a good variety of good clean standup, and then a couple guys that get pwn'd by the cuss filter. :p

[Kurtz]

Best show ever? Let's not go too far.

It's the best show on Fox, that's for damn sure.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Umm, what about That Seventies Show?

That show is halarious. :p Fez should be a sex symbol for all foreign exchange students around the world.

[RCA]

Yeah, CCP has been great lately. I think Pablo Francisco and Dane Cook are my favorites from there.

EDIT: Forgot Mitch Hedburg. :eek:

[Kurtz]

That show is halarious. :p Fez should be a sex symbol for all foreign exchange students around the world.
It was good, but not near Family Guy.

The only shows on Fox just as good are The Simpsons [sometimes] and 24.

It's the best show on Fox, that's for damn sure.

24 is better.

[Kurtz]

24 is better.
I said 24, but there it isn't on now, thus FG takes the cake [for now].

[Illmatic]

Comedy Central Presents trots out mediocre comic after mediocre comic...the only ones that I really liked were Lewis Black and Dimitiri Martin, and Black obviously was established before CCP.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Yeah, CCP has been great lately. I think Pablo Francisco and Dane Cook are my favorites from there.

Mitch Hedberg owns them all. :p I always forget the funny ones, but the guy from King of Queens(not the main guy) was pretty funny.

Oh man, I NEED to see Lewis Black next time he tours around here.

Which one?

[Kurtz]

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Hedberg's material isn't the funniest stuff, but man, his whole persona is just...I dunno, it's great.

Hicks, Pryor, Carlin, Black, Rock

Those are my top 5

"They need to scrap the current codes for homeland security. There needs to be just three levels of that: JESUS CHRIST! GOD DAMMIT! and **** ME!!!

That's a damn great joke...I saw him on the Rules of Enragement tour and he blew the house down...I also have the CD "The Rules of Enragement", which was recorded during a show in Minnesota...it's pretty funny, the first few tracks he just rips on Minnesota for being too cold.

[Kurtz]

Hicks, Pryor, Carlin, Black, Rock

Those are my top 5
Hicks
Bruce
Dangerfield
Kinison

[Lunch]

My favorite Black segment is the one about the stupidest thing you've ever heard.

"If it weren't for my horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college."

Dude, tonight was ****ing ridiculous. Me an my friends are hanging out at the local video game store, cause our friend works there, and some rich scenester/thuggs come in, yes, scenester thuggs. They start talking about how good GTA is because of violence when they see us playing an RPG on the TV, wow, way to make an invalid point shitface. They then see that I am wearing an Opeth shirt, and inform me thatthey saw them at the Sounds Of The Underground Tour and that they were terrible, and the one kid is like "What the **** they're from Sweden. So I was just like "Yes, they are Swedish, woopity doo, that doesn't change the fact that they own all," and the kid is like, "They ****ing blow," and at that point, my friend who works at the store puts in Deliverence and the kids start talking more ****, this time their serious! So Trey tells the most ghetto of them "You look like a twat with your rhinestone earings, did mommy buy those?" and the kid is like "Your ears are too big for earings! I'm from the hood! I've been to Harlem," so Vince tells him "Dude, your a spoiled 12 year old rich kid, and you claim to be a thugg, your so cute," and then they're like "You're gay! Dying your hair black!" I might at Vince has had black hair his entire life. And then out of knowhere some kid tells me, "You look like some kid I know," and I was like "OK then..." and he was like "He's a bitch!" and so I responded, "He must be a handsome bitch if he looks like me," and the little brat is like, "You're gay, why are you judging the way he looks! He's another dude!" and Vince says, "So what he can still say whether he's good looking or not," and the kid asks us, "Are you gay?" and I respond, "Only for you fruitloop," and then they left. We then went to Subway, where they followed us and continued to harrass us, until Ryan told them he knows kickboxing (which was just a ridiculous claim to **** with them), then the one kid was like, "We weren't trying to start anything," so I told the little twat that his stupidity was killing my brain cells, and that he should shut the **** up, they then proceded to run away, the little pussies.

Interesting...

[i am the robots]

Sounds like fags looking for some fun. Which is what you gave them.

They were seriously some of the dumbest kids ever. Trey said something moderately witty and made the one kid look like a douche in public, and the kid was like my sister tells funnier jokes.... I don't understand dumb people....

[i am the robots]

You need to understand that they were making comments for around 5-6 minutes before anybody said a thing to them.

[i am the robots]

They were affecting buisiness, and they were talking ****, and we wanted them out of the store, then they followed us when we left, blarg.

[Steerpike]

Correction, it's going to take a little longer to get the spotlight up. I was almost finished typing it up, when I told the task manager to close my media player because it wasn't responding. In a rather spectacular kamikaze move, it also obliterated my two internet windows and nearly forced my computer into a restart.

So I'm starting from scratch.

How are you guys liking the new season?

wholly disappointed with the new family guys. I would say out of the ones i have seen, maybe 1 is up to regular family guy standards, maybe.


My dad rented Team America the other night and made my grandfather watch it. I walked in during the sex scene, and my grandfather was laughing pretty hard.

yet another reason why trey parker and matt stone are comedic geniuses.


Anyway, I think that Comedy Central Presents is my favorite show atm. It's a good variety of good clean standup, and then a couple guys that get pwn'd by the cuss filter. :p

One of my favorites is actually an odd choice, and one most people havent seen. It is the CCP of Ardal O'Hanlan. Played Father Dougal McGuire in the irish sitcom Father Ted, who also happens to be one of the funniest characters ever made.

Hicks
Bruce
Dangerfield
Kinison
Carlin

I would have to say for me it is, in no particular order: Dangerfield, the dice man, eddie murphy (his standup from the 80s was genius), Carlin, and Steve Martin

[Arucard]

Hey dudes, i got Senses Fail : Let It Enfold you for abit of Pop-Punk action, and its suprsingly really, really good. Best album i've heard in a few months, easily.

And my post count increased because i merged ThE_B.P.C with my main one.

[Bartender]

Hicks, Pryor, Carlin, Black, Rock

Those are my top 5

I agree with all of those except Rock. He's good, but he's not Top 5-good.

I think you're still the person I agree most with on stand-ups, though.


Am I the only person here who isn't a very big fan of Mitch Hedberg? He can be funny, but he isn't a "OMFGZ HE IS THE FUNNIEST GUY EVER!" comic

I'm not that much of a fan of his either. He is good though. On a related note, I do sometimes feel like I'm the only person who can't stand Dane Cook, though.


Has anyone seen that Irish funny man Dylan Moran and his show monster. Thats are bloddy giggles.

Yeah, Dylan Moran's a funny guy. Good stand-up, and Black Books is a great show.

EDIT: Ardal O'Hanlan is good, too.

RE: Harry Potter. I'm a big fan of the books, but not the films. Got the new book this morning, but rather than reading it in one day (or at least one session) like I did with the last one, I forced myself to put it down and spend some time online after the first two chapters.

I really cant understand why foreign people do this (epsecially americans). Here in Greece usually people stay at home as much as they want (until they get a decent job or get married) and parents pay everything :cool:. Also, it's very normal for an important number of university students not to work.

[GaggingOrder]

My brother's 18, and my parents kick him out every now and then for being a dumbass, but they're letting him do chores for rent. Whenever he forgets to wash the dishes or whatever, he gets kicked out for like a week. He owes my dad like ****ing six hundred bucks, because he:

1) Flatted a tire
2) Backed into my dad's new car
3) Ran a red light and got ticketed.

[Steerpike]

What's the problem with it?

Wireless modems generally have a problem with maintaining the connection any time the work load surpasses "light."

In other words, the connection dies if you try to do more than look at one medium-traffic sight.

[Lord Abortion]

so, for instance, if I am, as I frequently do, trawling the ysi thread for good songs,(of which there are plenty), posting in another thread and downloading a song from YSI, it dies, stopping the download in an incredibly irritating fashion

[Mr. Squiggles]

They all seemed to feature guitars in one point or another in their standup routines. Twas pretty interesting...funny, too, some of the "lyrics" to their songs.

Scrubs is a pretty funny show. The only part that I can recall of the top of my head was something that went like this.

Safe to say I am not really a big gamer, I mostly like sports (stfu) and action games, like Halo and GTA and Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid (is those two really action games? I dunno)

BTW, ESPN College Hoops 2k5 > NBA Live 2005 :p

Metal Gear Solid is awesome. MGS3 was the first game I got excited about in a while, as I've stopped playing PS2 in the last 2 years.

Goldeneye and Perfect Dark are great games. I still play Perfect Dark, but I think I'm the only one who ever prefered it to Goldeneye.

My friend and I spent countless hours playing that game. It was great, great fun...loved it more than almost any other FPS.

While we're on the topic of old school N64...Snowboard Kids 2. Quite possibly one of the greatest snowboarding, hell, one of the greatest games ever. All the secret boards...levels...bombs...all great. No other snowboarding game can come close to holding a candle to that game.

Haha, I've seen more Scrubs than I could ever want to...my gf loves that ****ing show.

I actually really love it. I've just kind of rediscovered it recently; I watched the first few episodes when it first came out, because it was new and looked interesting, and thought it was good, but not great. In it's later episodes it seems to have gotten more surreal, and faster- (and better-) paced.

[Cain]

Re: Video games

Since I'm a history nerd and wasn't allowed to play Doom when I was younger, the obsessively historically accurate World War II first-person shooters have a huge fan in me. Call of Duty especially is incredible: if they could be a little more like Medal of Honor in terms of attention to historical detail and then get better missions and a much longer game, it'll rock. As it is, Call of Duty II looks amazing.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Man, I remember playing the original Doom on PC. That and Wolfenstein...Zomg those games owned. :p I also used to play endless hours of NES games at my babysitters' house. Her husband had like 50 NES games, so there was endless fun there.

Hmm, "No Quarter" by Led Zeppelin is a pretty advanced song for its time. When I first listened to it (only a few days ago :() I wasn't sure if I was actually listening to the Tool cover or not.

And to answer your question, Dr. Jake, I haven't heard the Tool version yet. That's why I didn't know which one it was, because it had a more modern quality to it and it could have been either one to me.

[Illmatic]

Don Cheadle got robbed of "Best Actor" last year.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

What do you think of Tool's version of No Quarter, YDload? Both versions are pretty darn amazing, but I must say that Tool turned the song from a good song to a memorable song. :-D

And how the movie he was closest to winning it for was that **** sandwich Gangs of New York, and how Forrest Gump beat The Shawshank Redemption for Best Picture in 1994.

I think Black Hawk Down should have won some awards in 2001...probably the most realistic war movie ever...not in terms of how it portrays the events it is based on (I heard it twists them around) but in how it captures combat.

Hell, we could sit here all day and point out what the Academy screwed up.

Anyway, Hotel Rwanda was a very good movie. It's a bit heavyhanded in some parts (but it never claims to be a documentary so it avoids a bullet there), but overall it's great. I really have a hard time believing Million Dollar Baby is better.

Agreed, BHD was definitely one of the most realistic war movies i have ever seen. It was very well done

so HR was good? I hear that's it's quite a drama, but I haven't heard good or not. I hear MDB was pretty good too, except I think it looks kinda dumb

Why all the abbreviations? Lazy white people :p

Anyway, yeah, Hotel Rwanda was a really good movie...it's only problem is that it is best as a movie about one man (Don Cheadle's character) trying to do too much, trying to do what is best for himself and his family but also trying to do what is best for his country, but sometimes it drifts into a movie that tries to make a political statement (in showing the Western world's unwillingness to help Rwanda). Overall, though, the political statement takes a backseat, so don't make that deter you from seeing it.

[Badmoon]

Shawshank was better than PF, and was more of an "Oscar-worthy" movie (in other words, it would be more realistic to assume that Shawshank would win Best Picture than it would be to assume Fiction would win it)

/yay

I have their album "Epic." As the title indicates, it's quite something. Very unlike other black metal given the very high production value, however. They make me want to check out the Prometheus album by Emperor, because I've heard it's similarly thick and stuff.

[Moses]

It's so much easier to enjoy black metal with good production, it helps the compositional quality shine through, but the tr00er stuff is good too and I like it more anyway.

[Cain]

I'm just a fan of thick, ambient production with lots of stuff going on. I never identified with stripped-down, raw sounds. They just aren't musical to me. This is why the indie-rock and grunge stance on reverb has always puzzled me. Like Eddie Vedder has said that he wants to remix "Ten" to take the reverb off it. Why? The reverb makes those songs what they are. The echoes and sustains produced by that effect can elicit a wide range of emotional responses. And so when a band plays out-of-tune and with poor production values, just to make a statement about their musical politics, it's rather transparent and stupid to me.

EDIT: This is not meant as a slight against poorly-produced black metal, or any other music in general. That's just me as a listener.

[Moses]

I can see what you're saying because with some stuff it's really hard to listen to because of the production. It's almost painful, I'll upload an Ulver song contrasting poor and good production. The song has both sides.

Underoath - Cries Of The Past (http://s51.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3SAJ00VALL9VP1AYXZ1HCIR1TA)

[Moses]

This isn't the worst production I've heard but this is pretty much where I draw the line from being true, and being obnoxious.

Ulver

Were you referring to the Underoath song or the Ulver song?

Underoath - It's Dangerous Buisiness, Walking Out Your Front Door (http://s44.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=06ENASL5MFS313GLQTGHB9J923)

The change is ridiculous, no?

Oregon min. wage is 7.05 right now, and I make 8 bucks an hour, hurrah!

Jom : Interesting question, I would have to think about that one.

NP - Borknagar - A Tale Of Pagan Tongue

Garm = \m/

When I started working when i was 17 minimum wage in NJ was $5.15 an hour. Now that it is nearly 5 years later i think it is a whopping 5.75, which really brings down the wages a lot for all other jobs comparitively.

However it does appear that we have some of the cheapest gas prices on the east coast, so you give a little to get a little.

I wouldn't say all of metal, more like just black/extreme metal but that's still a huge complement. I NEED MORE SONGS.

I would say all of metal and not just black/extreme metal. Garm and vortex have insane ranges, and on top of that the three of them all have very unique, creative, and complex styles of singing that can be matched only by a select few.

I think I'll whore the changes to my one and only thread.

And now I'm gonna go watch Full House.

Random question: knowing what you know now at this point in your life, what is one thing you would have done at any point in your life, so that if you went back in time, you could change that one thing... so that, in an imaginary future, that event-change would be better than what it is (was) currently (at some point in time)?

I'm confused.

The only thing I can immediately think I'd like to change (without just trying my whole life again, which would be awesome) is one of my AS choices.


Never heard of him.

Not really surprising, he's English and not really very well-known outside of the UK. I think he's underrated by a lot of people, because his humour isn't ever the political/social commentary-minded stuff that a lot of the best seems to be. His style is a lot more anecdotal; lots of stories and things, kind of like the uncle that won't shut up at a family gathering.

Incidentally, is your user title based on the Stiff Little Fingers song?

Do you want to give a name to your FAs? See the Report Problems/Ask Questions thread, FAs are being gathered.

[Mr. Squiggles]

Good morning everyone.

I never got into the Harry Potter books.

I see we were discussing Borknagar \m/

And Eleventeen : You couldn't even walk down the same street as Garm, Vortex or Vintersorg. Especially Vortex.

one thing i have noticed about vortex after having seen him with dimmu twice, and including the live video clips from him playing with arcturus, he isnt too incredibly accurate live. He doesnt sing out of key, but he doesnt exactly sing the right notes either.

As for vintersorg, from the live borknagar tracks i have heard, and the live otyg album, he is incredibly accurate live, never misses a single note.

As for garm, i have no idea what so ever considering he hates playing live.

EDIT:

I would give my FAs a name, but i am not clever enough to actually think of a name for them. I am taking suggestions however.

I haven't heard any Vortex live, i will have to download some.

My room is such a tip since i got internet yesterday. I count.... 8 'blue bolt' cans (red bull alternative) and so many empty sweet packets.

this reminds me of my room except the red bull cans are water bottles. I'm a pretty untidy person. Magazines, clothes and CDs are thrown all over the place.

I read the first four in 72 hours. Don't doubt the power of the literate.

[Stoic]

is Harry Potter series THAT interesting or just extremely readable? :confused:

Pretty much both.

It's just extremely readable I think.

No, it's just over 600 pages. I read the last one within the day it came out, and that was longer than this one. I'm taking my time a bit more with this one, though.

[Joe]

Well i read the first one in a matter of weeks and read about half the second one and it bored me to tears so i gave up on it. I might read the third though, because I loved the movie and it's the favorite in the series according to a bunch of my friends so we'll see

[Arucard]

Steerpike : Lost Horizon kick so much butt. Thank you very much.

[ATM]

As long as they aren't Vertical Horizon.

[Arucard]

No my boob obsessed friend, Lost Horizon it is.

Can anyone help me with audacity real quick? If so, please read my post on the July Cover Comp thread. I'm almost done with the editing for our cover, audacity won't let me copy and paste. :evil: Or move anything around.
