  1. Screen them in their entirety, or not at all. :flaming: The cream of the crop, had to be a NZ network's airing and subsequent censorship of Pulp Fiction, yeah, despite it being on late night, every swear word was taken out, if you've seen the movie, you'll know that cuts about 1/3 of the dialogue out! yet they fail to even bleep one word of that stupid Jay and Silent Bob movie. wierd eh? have always hated censorship in some way shape or form, and I awlays have, not so much the age restrictions anymore, than ididot morons who try to ban the Kill Bill DVD's because they're violent. :nope: hey! I'm over 18, and I can now legally watch whatever movie in my conscious I choose! So in that sense, T.V censorship bites. :devil:
  2. [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][size=2][color=dimgray]I am a newfound fan of the Flaming Lips.[/color][/size][/font] [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][size=2][color=dimgray]Tony (Semjaza Azazel) posted a thread here once about the Flaming Lips , and when I saw their CD, Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots for hire at my local library, I decided to hire it out and give it a spin. I generally give anythign mentioned in MM&TV a go, to see if it's as good as the thread starter implies...[/color][/size][/font] [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][size=2][color=dimgray]I didn't know what to expect, but it was really good, to say the least, Fight Test, the first song that is on the CD is one of my favorites, along with "Yoshimi battles the Pink Robots pt1 and 2" and "All we have is now" I foudn the general flow and harmony of YBTPR to be quite relaxing and enjoyable, a definate must-have. do I sense Anime elements influencing the CD artwork?[/color][/size][/font] [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][size=2][color=dimgray]So are there any other Flaming Lips fans out there? And what other CD's from this band would you reccomend to me? What part of this band really stands out to you? (be it images or the flow & sound etc.)[/color][/size][/font]
  3. [font=Verdana][size=1]I suggest creating a [url="www.myotaku.com"]MyOtaku[/url] account an putting them there, so far as I know there isn't a swear censor or rules against vulgar language on it. Yuo could put them in seperate posts, one for each day or something. [/size][/font]

    Wrong Turn

    [font=Verdana]I wasn't to impressed with it, it had no real charm on me at all.[/font] [font=Verdana]I simply found the movie really forgettable, the suspense wasn't too riveting, and the movie as a whole seemed to drivel, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, ( first, next gen and the remake) did the whole idea of remote location hick killers perfectly and effortlessly, they were a disturbing horror while this movie to me was just gross out horror. It was a [i]wannabe[/i] Texas.[/font] [font=Verdana]The conclusion wasn't very good either, I mean, come on. :p Jaws and the oxygen tank cannister ring a bell?[/font]
  5. [font=Century Gothic]Welcome Back Psychotik! I was wondering where you got to. :p [/font] [font=Century Gothic]I like these wallpapers, in fact, I'm going to use one for my desktop if that's allright with you ^_^ I Especially like Virus v2 and Hex v4 , it looks like alot of hard work has gone into them and the end result is smart and sharp looking pieces that uses it's space well, is very well layered and postioned, 3D graphics programs no? Very stylish.:sweat: [/font]
  6. [font=Book Antiqua][color=black][QUOTE=AzureWolf][/color][/font] [font=Book Antiqua][color=black][color=blue]Theological references are made in both versions. Do you think these are vital/necessary, or creating a bias against those who do not believe in God?[/color] [/QUOTE][/color][/font] [font=Century Gothic][size=2]The Theological references in the revised Hypocratic oath simply state "I must not play at God."[/size][/font] [font=Century Gothic][size=2]This simply means that the doctor should not play God, and is therefore not an actual reference to deity, simply an oath that forbids doctors to take a [i]god-like role [/i]as far as their paitents are concerned.;) [/size][/font]
  7. [font=Century Gothic][size=2]I'm all for people sharing their faiths in public and whatnot, I am a Christian myself amd I liek to share my beliefs with people, so they understand me, faith in God is a pretty big part of my life.[/size][/font] [font=Century Gothic][size=2]Having said that, I do not agree with what this pilot did, there is no need to go "sharing" the faith amongst those who are there simply to go somewhere else. A sermon should be something you have a choice on, being on a plane you can hardly decide to walk away. eg, If someone politely asked me to resist the temptation to share, I would as there is no use in preaching to someone who doesn't want to hear it.[/size][/font] [font=Century Gothic][size=2]Professionaly, I'd be surprised if this pilot keep his job. [/size][/font]
  8. [font=System][size=1]I like your banner, it's very stylish and goes with your avatar well, The use of space is great, everythings well layered out, and like Kinetic, I too like the grungy effect, heh.[/size][/font]
  9. [QUOTE=Semjaza Azazel] We'll see though. I already feel like the Gaming section is a bit more upbeat than it has been recently. Yay.[/QUOTE] [font=Century Gothic][size=1][color=teal][b]I feel that the boards as a whole are more upbeat.[/b][/color][/size][/font] [font=Century Gothic][size=1][color=teal][b]I've had a bit more time this morning to pour over the new boards to really figure out it's new capablilities, and I don't fell it's squashed at all. I think people are more used to the content of the boards beign dead center, and they were actually skinnier than they are now. [size=2][color=darkred]~_^[/color][/size][/b][/color][/size][/font] [font=Century Gothic][size=1][color=teal][b]It's just the over to the right-sidedness throwing people of, methinks..[/b][/color][/size][/font] [b][font=Century Gothic][size=1][color=#008080]Adn I've realised that my iespell applet is not working on the new editor, Is it possible that a spell checker can be implemented for us simpletons who miss typos when proof reading? *notices the microsoft-ness of the WYSIWYG editor* [size=2][color=darkred]^_^; [/color][/size]what i mean is, it feels as if I'm typing in Word.[/color][/size][/font][/b]
  10. [size=1]I was wondering if anyone out there with DVD screen capture abilities and a copy of Death and Rebirth could please get me the screenshot of shinji when he is at the bottom of the stairs curled up, where the soldiers burst in to kill him. I would like this picture for my next banner creation and have crawled the web for ages to look for this pic or a similar one, any angle of this moment woudl be fine.[/size] [size=1]Thank you for your time.[/size]
  11. [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]I only like Survivor, I have just watched the final of Pearl islands, my favourite of the seven I've seen, and am eagerly anticipating All Stars.[/size][/font] [size=1]I haven't really got into any of the others, I don't like reality T.V as a genre much at all to be honest, I feel different to Survivor for whatever reason, it's my only exception heh.[/size]
  12. [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]The new boards look amazing, I haven't seen a board anywhere like this, yet I don't go to many others.[/size][/font] [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]The left mounted navigation is very cool, it's more modern and is very unique, I keep looking for avatars there lol, I guess it's just a matter of time before I get used to this layout entirely.[/size][/font] [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]I also like the way v7 embeds quotes graphically, they look more asthetically pleasing than they used to.[/size][/font] [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]Well worth the wait and downtime, congratulations ot all involved in this massive undertaking. [/size][/font] [size=2][font=Arial Narrow][size=1]Oh, and the style editor, very cool indeed you have spoiled us well and truly James-kun ;)[/size] [/font][/size] [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]Thank you for the great new addons and features, i have nothing but the upmost repsect for your dedication to this project.[/size][/font] [font=Arial Narrow][size=1]btw, if my post looks all over the place, I'm just testing styles ^_^[/size][/font]
  13. [size=1] I think that this has to be one of the most stupidest and inept ideas ever. Think about it, shooting something/someone, do you really need to play music too? And if it indeed does take the place of ammunition, then what are you supposed to do with it, sing something to death/pieces? The only way that could ever happen is if you were listening to Justin Timberlake. [/size]
  14. [size=1] I like :D Especially the dark background, all in pencil? man that's dedication, it's well laid out, vibrant, good use of color and whatnot. I was trying to think of ways you could improve this piece, and the one thing I came up with was the white underneath the characters legs, I'm not too sure wha effect you had in mind exactly, my guess is some kind of shadow effect. It's very good anyway, keep up the good work. [/size]

    ads?

    [size=1] I believe somehow they are reciving our locations, I'm getting ads geared specifically towards New Zealand and Australia. Thanks for clearign that up James, I was wondering if I had been sprung with adware. [/size]
  16. [size=1] Why do you need to delet your account? If you want a name change, ask charles nicely ;) Only Staff can delete accounts. [/size]
  17. [size=1] [color=3366CC] Heh, nice guess there PT, this time it's not Anime Enema, but it sure is close. I'm talking about a board in particular, that has deleted a very good rebuttal of mine concerning the way they run things. Well, if you want a spoiler, head on over to MyO, because before this poem, I did a write up on what I posted there, the name is blatantly in the title ;) *will post a picture of "the event" should it happen*[/size][/color]
  18. [size=1] [color=3366CC]Otakuboards is NOT the forum in the center of this piece, read the last line of the last stanza and it becomes apparent. Hehe. [b] Modrod [/b] A deleted post shatters the air, Power corrupting begins right here, Your views, not mine, your views aren't mine, It's a damn shame it has come to this time. Quite comfortable with your hole in the sand. Quite comfortable when you have the power to ban. Quite comfortable when differing views do get banned. Screw the lot of you, I do not like sand. Intelligent discussion cannot thrive here. Powerful rebuttals get trashed here. Can they give back, a few words or two? No they can't they know what i speak is the Truth. Instead the use their power to delete. And soon my time, to feel the wrath of their ban. I'd like to know that they Ring true to their Source, But thank God, thank God, for Otakuboards. ------ A bit of symbolism is in there for you to decipher. [/size][/color]
  19. [size=1][color=3366CC] "The soldiers actions subtely suggest that perhaps the Monarchy isn't as enrapturing as it once was..."[/size][/color]
  20. [size=1][color=#3366CC] I think it's a good idea. I'd like the opportunity to design the OB banner again, designin 'em is fun. Having said that, I believe there is a specific plan for V7, one that might include things on the banner that will spoile the v7 surprise, so I really don't know if it can be done right now..... All I can say is, I agree. :D [/size][/color]
  21. [size=1][color=3366CC] Strange indeed ^_^ Funyn thing is, shocking as it may be, i wouldn't put it too far past MTV to pull something like this. There (MTV) excuses are so paltry, there is no way I believe this to be anything other than a huge publicity stunt.[/size][/color]
  22. [size=1][color=#3366CC] Mmmm. My favourite was the Sweet and Sour Koala Loaf, tasty. :tasty: Now, get that perfect bottled pet you've always wanted at [url=www.bonzaikittens.com] Bonzai Kittens.[/url][/size][/color]
  23. [size=1][color=#3366CC] Enter the Nun-trix ---------OR------- "Hey, we were accepted by the convent, let's celebate!" [/size][/color]
  24. [size=1][color=#3366CC] If you've ever wondered why some parents want a "Don't try this at home" warning label on Dogs, this would be it.[/size][/color]
  25. [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by wrist cutter [/i] [B]Dog: "Are you the one who replaced my contact solution with peroxide?" [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1][color=3366CC] wrist cutter takes the round. They were all very good though. Very hard to choose. [/size][/color]
