  2. [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Harry [/i] [B]Yeah sure. Anyway I don't bother reading the locked topics because they are usually locked because they're just "Hello i'm new" or other worthless things like that. All the interesting topics are probably deleted. Unless it's a rather long topic, then I'll browse through a little. [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1] They['re the only locked topics I don't bother with :p Other than that, it's an interesting way to pass time if you don't have anything to say on the boards, or you know what you have to say is spammy [/size]:drunk:
  3. [size=1] I'll read them to see what they did wrong. So I don't make the same mistake, and it helps me remember the Rules. I wouldn't say i was fascinated with them though, most are pretty moronic, hence, closed. [/size]
  4. [size=1] I just saw Jackass the movie with one of my 3 complimentary tickets, and all I can say is, I'm glad it was free. It was hilariously funny for two reasons, it was utterly pathetic and moronic. I enjoy alot of movies that are pathetic, they give me something to laugh at. :laugh: I enjoyed alot of the skits though, such as [spoiler] the mother and the crocodile in her house [/spoiler] Silly, stupid, appaling and plotless. I guess you can't really expect much in the way of movies from MTV. Still though, for a free movie, it was a great laugh. Not something I would pay to watch, thank god I didn't. What are your thoughts on the Jackass movie? Where did they come up with this trash? [/size]
  5. [size=1] At the top of your windows browser should be a menu which says "tools", select it and drop down the menu to "internet options" In the general tab there should be a sub section labelled "Temporary Internet Files", you should see a button there which says "clear cookies" Simply select this, and your cookies will be gone. That's Internet explorer anyway, If you have something else, like Mozilla or Opera, the I don't know, I guess they're relatively similar. Alternatively you can go into your windows folder located on the Hard drive, and find the system 32 folder, there should be a cookies folder inside it, clear it as if you were deleting other junk. cookies look like and act like text files. You can even open them and look at the code through notepad. [/size]
  6. [size=1] There are many people I respect on Otakuboards. These people inspire me in some way. Sometimes for the better, sometimes er... :rolleyes: Ajeh Transtic Nerve Lailaith Ril KnightOfTheRose James (jumping on the bandwagon here, should be a James' fanclub) Final Flash and NeoCactuar ( fellow Kiwis) Lady Macdaioh (sp?)

    Cover Songs

    [size=1] I've heard some very wicked punk cover tunes from Me first and the Gimme Gimmes, who I first learned of through p2p file sharing. Their best hits are Somewhere over the Rainbow Wild World Rainbow Connection One tin Soldier Runaway Who Put the Bomp? Phantom of the Opera Most of these tunes i have downloaded, there seems to be a bit of confusion as to who they really belong to, So i don't know for sure who does them, If I did, I'd buy their CD's probably. There are wicked punk covers of Go your own way Paint it Black - Semjaza mentioned that one Have you ever seen the rain Spiderman Theme Song Eye of the Tiger Sweet Home Alabama There are a couple I've heard at the movies Freddy got Fingered - I've got to be me (in one of the last scenes). Bowling for Columbine - What a Wonderful World(DVD Title screen and end credits). EDIT: I just found put this song is covered by joey Ramone from the Ramones, It's a good song well worht checking out. That's all i can think of right now. EDIT: I've checked the list of artists and songs that po up when I search for punk cover tunes. Apparently A Newfound Glory does california Dreaming, NO! Me First and The Gimme Gimmes do it! If you get songs via the p2p way, don't rely on the artists it says. Because apparently One tin Soldier is actually Puff the Magic Dragon, oh please :rolleyes: [/size] There is a website called The Covers Project, though i'm not sure If I'm allowed to link to it or not, it has a list of cover bands and their songs. Try searching on the web for "covers project"
  8. [size=1] I enjoy the techo remixes of classic songs. It's become my latest musical hobby lately. Finding techno remixes of some old songs. They sound really cool. As far as mainstream original content, I have a CD from this guy called darude, his music is wicked [/size]
  9. [size=1]My OB Name is an anime Character, I had just started watching an anime called Neon genesis Evangelion, and Shinji Really appealed to me, then i remembered that i could be mistaken for the infamous Shinji of V2, so I also used his last name "Ikari". I was going to use what the suffix the name with in the Japanese translation "kun" I understand that there is now a "Shinji-kun" on the boards. My, previous name, s@bretooth, was an X Men character, the @ was an attempt at putting some irreverence into the name. I've gone off using characters like that in user names now. Shinji Ikari is also the Beast who shouted I at the heart of the world, Rising Sun, my anime series, is that beast. I'll leave that up to you to figure that one out. [/size]
  10. [size=1] Kind of reminds me of this time when we went out to a batch for a holiday out in Kaikoura, north of Christchurch, which had this out house for a toilet. Anyway, when I needed to go, I went out, and in came these killer flies from hell. Oly they didn't bite :demon: So yeah, bottom line, I know what it's like, to a degree :sweat: [/size]
  11. [size=1] They used a similar jingle over here to promote the Kiwiburger. That's right, they made a burger out of our national icon, and an endangered native bird. It had that at the end of it, "Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a seasame seed bun!" I enjoyed it. :p [/size]
  12. [size=1] I don't know what i'd do, I use up most of my internet time here, so I guess I'd have more time browsing, useless sites and wierd unheard of sites as well. please, let that not happen until I get the "no life" rank. Not that it's all important, I just want it :p [/size]
  13. [size=1] You are a newbie until you hit 250 posts, the other member ranks are listed below. 250- Junior Member 500 -Member 1000- Otaku 2000 - Extreme Otaku 3000 - No Life 5000 - ? I live here. Rank is determined by your post count, and doesn't affect your membership here at all. Post quality is something that's aimed for here rather than post count. I think of it more as a novelty, you get the new rank, but that's about it. I hope that helps ^_~ and welcome to OB. [/size]
  14. [size=1] There are real psychics, I believe though that they get their powers from demonic spirits and principalities. Then there are those that are so vague, it's possible to apply it to anything. Like I could predict in a person "an emotional trauma" This desn't explain alot, and a person being "mediated" could easily apply it to anything that's happened to them in the heat of the moment. I'm very cynical about psychics. [/size]
  15. [size=1] The only reason it sound like the left behind series, is because the Left behind series sounds like Revelation. The resistantd has four main leaders, each has a horse, red, black, pale, and white [/size] :smirk:
  16. [size=1] For all we know, this could be a ploy by the U.S to get Saddam emotionally charged so he does something stupid and get's caught, only to be re united at Area 51 to Uday and Qusay. I watched an interesting movie called deterrence today. It predicted a showdown with the U.S and Iraq over another invasion of Kuwait in 2008. The presidents threatens the use nuclear weapons against Baghdad, and it's dictator, Uday Hussein. 2008 ... O_o [/size]
  17. [size=1] I think a yaoi based on Rising Sun (my anime series)has the potential to be very funny. Personally I wouldn't get so uptight about Yaoi, after all, it's just fan art. If they want to depict Rising Sun Characters as lovers. I wouldn't exactly agree, but I wouldn't be making a suggestion here that all yaoi be banned either. Like James said, We wouldn't want to impede on the rights of other board members. Eh, this thread seems to go in circles, you say you don't want the official OB poilcy to be specifically pro or anti yaoi, it's already like that. [/size]
  18. [size=1] I anyone is wonderign what their names were, they were Qusay(sp?) and Uday Hussein. Whole I don't condone their ruthless actions, I feel that they had no chance but to grow up in an environment where they would ultimately tyrannize Iraq like they did. Like father, like son. It's sad that it had to turn out like that. My condolenses to their mother.[/size]
  19. [size=1] Well, the only way the networks will stop them is if hte majority of people aint watching them. V_V Until realtiy T.V stops making the networks the serious cash it does, it will not go away. [/size]
  20. [size=1] If you want more information, I'll give you the basic storyline. I cannot give you the scenarios because one of them will be the story ending and it will be ruined. Basic Storyline: An evil dictator has aruisen and taken over the united nations, he sets out to take the world over, and this isn't your average psychopathic madman out for world domination storyline. Simply because he does it Subliminally, with miracles like fire falling from the sky, and the removal of all nuclear weapons from the earth. He generally subdues the populous of earth into believing his lies about uniting for the greater good. There are a few people who know of his lies, and the fact he only wants to control the world, not help it. They embark on a quest to take him down, by any means possible, and bring a real peace and new world order across not by some weird miracles and healings, but by love, that which bind all humans together in the eternal struggle for reasoning. Any other ideas? [/size]
  21. [size=1] We have a Yu Yu hakusho forum? *didn't know* but yeah, I think if we made a forum for every anime that had a respectable fan base, we would have a list that's way too long, and discussions that are spread out all over the place, I'm sure this anime is good, but there is always Anime Lounge. It's like Otaku Lounge.... For Anime :tasty: [/size]
  22. [size=1] I think that harry needs to try and get revenge against Spider man in this film, not as a super villain, but in some other way. Perhaps he could team up with Dr. Octopus and they can try to take down spidey together, until Dr. Octopus decides he has no more use for Harry and tries to kill him, Spidey rescues, blah blah, ? The way the ps2 game was structure, i was almsot certain the next villain was going to be Scorpion *shrugs* [/size]
  23. [size=1] Finding a neat feature on a digital camera i borrowed which allows you to make short films. i created a silent independent film called the tiki Movie. It worked out pretty well, so i uploaded it to the internet. And I ENCOURAGE you to download it. So you can give me a review of it. this is not piracy is it? considering i made it? Anyway, the links in my signature. Don't expect too much of it though lol [/size]
  24. [size=1] I never go back to school. I'm finished forever. I've got a fate worse than school, finding a full time job! V_V [/size]
  25. [size=1] Impressive, they are well drawn and well shaded 9the first one) I can't find anything I don't like about them ^_^ I like the mountain creature one most because of it's 3 dimensional background and look. I like the Zebra type one because of it's jungle like background and t4he way the Zebra creature is positioned in the scene. well done ~_^ [/size]
