[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]It's true. My toys would kick your toys *****. Turtles? Yeah, sure, I like the Turtles. Transformers? Yeah, okay, I have a lot of those but the cream of the crop for me when I was a kid were toys that would make you namby-pamby members scream when you were little. Terminator, Robo-Cop, and hell yeah; Predator toys. Oh yes. Termintor toys with interchangable heads and arms and stuff, Robo-Cop toys with breakaway armor pieces. Fated battles in my bedroom every night. Another set of toys I rather enjoyed were Hot Wheels. Leadin' the way! Maybe that one was for Matchbox. Whatever. Cars are cars. Personally I liked the real version Hot Wheels more then the fantasy versions but, hey, cars are cars.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Well, street racing has had its fair share of polizei run ins for me but this story revolves around a fight. Between two guys. That I became a part of. It was at school about two years back, my junior year, and I was leaving to my car to go home. I see a huge crowd gathered by the southern area of the parking lot and walked over to see what it was. I'm already gonna tell you I love drama, fights, and other things. I thrive off the knowledge of being able to skew my story at my whim to fit my needs. Anyway. So these two guys were going at it, and I mean they were really fighting. Punching, kicking, biting, scratching, you name it. I crept my way through the crowd and got to the front and started cheering cause fights rock. About 2 minutes into my being there I get shoved into the fight, probably by the cops rushing in, and I'm immediately punched in the jawline so it looks like I'm fighting. Ow. A split second later I'm getting thrown to the ground by the policeman and getting a gun shoved in my face and him yelling; 'DON'T MOVE!' The two other brawlers got the same treatment. We were all taken away by cuffs. Eventually, yes, I got cleared after the two guys fighting said that I wasn't originally part of that fight and I just happened to stumble into it as the cops came flying in. So, there you have it. Fights, cops, and guns. What more can you ask for?[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[B]1. Do you have any birthday traditions?[/B] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Well hell yeah! It's tradition for me to make it a point to tell everyone when my birthday is (21st of August) so they can get me cool **** and worship me on the day (21st of August) I'm supposed to be worshipped on. As for tradition? Psh! Cake and Ice cream, stupid. People gathering for ME and giving presents to ME on MY birthday (21st of August)[/COLOR][/SIZE] [B]2. What was your best birthday present ever? (if you say 'life' I'll slap you!)[/B] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Best birthday present ever? My goddamn car. Something some of you, either, kids or newbies don't not know nuffin' about. Get a car, losers![/COLOR][/SIZE] [B]3. Has knowing your age ever given you a certain mindset? Did you ever feel like you'd passed a certain rung or like you had to change?[/B] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Of course! I'm older so that means I get to boss around and make others who are not as old as me feel inferior and if they are older than me they have to be damn good looking or I make fun of them and call them a loser and a basement jockey, druggie, drunk, whore, you name it. I'm in the business of making others feel bad about themselves. Comes with age. [/COLOR][/SIZE] [B]4. What was your favorite birthday?[/B] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]My 18th birthday, of course. Who says their 16th is the best? Thats retarded. Everyone knows that the 18th birthday is the best. You're free, you're generally nearing the end of high school or are already out, you probably have a car (or should have one), possibly have a job and are making some scrilla, and your parents just gotta let you go do your own thing. Ah. Its good to be king.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]In my Xbox 360 is [B]Forza Motorsport 2[/B]. Being the gearhead I am it's only fitting I'm playing the best of the best. In the CD-ROM drive of my PC is [B]Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War[/B] (All expansions included.) Gavin, Jokopoko, and I play that alot. I also play alot of [B]World of Warcraft[/B], which is also on the PC. In my PS2 is actually a Japo RPG. [B]MS Saga: A New Dawn[/B]. Its mediocre in all aspects. The battle system is dated, the graphics are dated, the story is predictable, and the characters are pretty stereo-typical BUT it's about Mobile Suits and Gundams, therefor it's something I'm really interested so it's actually not too bad. I'm sure it's like that for alot of you. In my Xbox, god rest it's soul, is [B]Marvel vs. Capcom 2[/B]. I actually bought that game about two years ago when I first got my Xbox 360 and it just hasn't been taken out since. No reason to play the inferior Xbox for any reason other than...Well...No reason at all. In my Nintendo DS is [B]Pokemon Pearl[/B]. You can't have a Nintendo handheld and not own a Pokemon of somesort.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]How interesting is my life? Pretty effin'. World of Hot Girlfriendcraft, World of Workcraft, World of Great Friendscraft, World of Awesome Forumcraft, and of course the clincher; World of Warcraft. I mean, I don't have any aspirations. I'm not going to college or a fine arts school. Not really looking for a career because GameStop is fine right now. Really, in general my life is just really care-free and laid back. Got a great girlfriend. She's great. The best thing thats ever happened to me. She's so understanding and cool, she does nice things for me, doesn't care I'm a WoW junkie when we're not together. Just amazing. The racing scene is better than ever now. People are starting to stray away from bright lights, busy city and heading out into the hilly area of Shawnee Heights. Makes for more dangerous, road-course style racing which I'm highly enjoying. Makes for quick wins because no one around this joint knows how to drift properly and they lose alot of speed in the corner. Hey, don't look at me, I don't drift. I drive a CRX. Kids. Don't street race. It's illegal and you'll get killed. All in all my life is better than all of yours right now.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Ya know. I've really been thinking about re-installing Guild Wars. I don't have any of the expansions or nuffin' but I have the base game and I love it but I don't know how much I'd play it considering I play WoW. Get WoW all of you. Now. Oh, right, sorry. This is a Guild Wars thread. Anyway, I never ever got a character to level 20. I know I had like a few level 10s. My favorite spec being Elementalist/Necromancer and Warrior/Necromancer. [/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Really. You guys are a bunch of nerds. All of you. Lame nerds. Dumb Otakus. Who Cares? Really, it's just a title that some people choose to dictate how they judge others without knowing them. I mean, really, Japan as a whole would be one big otaku. They love their anime, videogames and other nerdy obsessions.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Ah, yes. I remember it fondly. I paid a whole $.67 for a Yu-Gi-Oh card. The card? [URL=http://www.dempsey.com.au/USERIMAGES/000B0490.jpg]Gradius[/URL] And I don't even like Yu-Gi-Oh. Thats old school shooter dedication, baby, and an OUTRAGEOUS purchase.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]I feel for the good of the nation I must confess my Mutant DNA. My power? I kick peoples **** in on 2-D fighting games. [B]Guilty Gear[/B], [B]King of Fighters[/B] series, [B]Marvel vs Capcom 2[/B], [B]Capcom vs SNK 2[/B], [B]Samurai Showdown[/B],[B] Street Fighter[/B] series. Doesn't matter. I win the day. [B]Guilty Gear[/B] is my personal favorite with it's over-the-top speed and fluid animations as well as a colorful cast of characters, with [B]King of Fighters[/B] series coming up in a close second place. However, I grew up playing SNK so it's only natural that I took a liking to [B]Fatal Fury[/B], [B]King of Fighters[/B], [B]Samurai Showdown[/B] and the like more than Capcom's [B]Street Fighter [/B]series.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Well, I don't know about you guys but I think the worst place to get customers is at, hurray, a game store. GameStop in fact. Now, granted, this isn't one of those mean customers with a mean attitude kinda deal just some kid being stupid. So, there I was, reading the newest Game Informer when this kid comes up to the counter. I've seen this kid around before when I used to work in the mall store and I know this kid is a straight up mallcore DDR junkie who's only aspirations in life are to emulate what the Japanese anime sub-culture does, so whatever. He points to a box with Dante from Devil May Cry on it with the words 'PLAYSTATION 2' printed nice, neat, and white along the top and the words; 'DEVIL MAY CRY 5th ANNIVERSARY EDITION. INCLUDES ALL THREE GAMES!' in explosive text. 'Whats' that?', he asked I kinda glance over, look back down at my magazine and keep reading with this response; 'Devil May Cry.' 'Well, I know that but...what is it?' I look up again, this time at the kid himself and go; 'Uh. It's Devil May Cry. Can't read?' 'You know what? You're a jerk. No. You're a jerk. Now I know why I avoided you when I went to EB in the mall. Now you work here.', he just keeps going on. 'Okay, dude. You're getting mad at me because you obviously don't know what Devil May Cry is. You're pointing in a game case, to a box that says Devil May Cry and Playstation 2 across the top. It's a game. It's Devil May Cry.' He left, probably mad and broken that his mallcore japanophile wit was matched by the great folks at GameStop. Remember, kids. Don't be a retard![/COLOR][/SIZE]

[quote name='Gavin'][size=1]We use a WOW Ventrilo server, so unfortunately the only names we'd use would be among ourselves. Be awesome though to play against some live opponents. As for the time difference, well only Joe/silpheed is operating outside of GMT, so we normally play in the evening when everyone is online. I really would recommend downloading Hamachi and Ventrilo as they makes the games much smoother and more fun, and if you're up for a challenge, the Lights of the Warp mod ups the combat ante to an unreal degree. Also, as I don't think anyone has mentioned it yet, myself, Bill and Joe all operate off fully patched versions of the games, Dawn of War 1.51 and Dark Crusade 1.21, though Joe doesn't have DC yet.[/size][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"] Nah, brah. Joe has the DC. Joe has had the DC for about 5 days now. Either way, yeah. Download Hamachi and download Ventrilo then just ask me, Bill, or Gavin for the info. Maybe, since we're all patched up, we can just take the fight online with us four.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Well. I'm here in the USA so it's a 6 hour difference between us and Bill, and Gavin but as far as I can tell it's not really been a problem for me and Bill to get games going. I'm usually on when he's on and vice versa. And I'm assuming you're playing the Dark Crusade campaign in which case the Imperial Guard tie in by the fact that they are also trying to purge Kronus so they're both doing the same thing but are against each other because of it. Either way. My AIM name is Mister Riot so go ahead and IM me sometime if you want the Vent info and the Hamachi server info. Maybe we can play sometime.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[quote name='indifference'][COLOR="Indigo"]As well as not backseat modding either. Thank you. Also, generalizations are part and parcel of the misunderstanding about drugs in the first place, so to ask people to drop part of the whole argument around them is a bit unrealistic. Especially when people's opinion about them stem from those generalizations running around. [/COLOR][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Why not frontseat mod then? Thank you. Either way. Illegal drugs are bad and people who are addicted to illegal drugs are bad people and thats that. Can't think of anything more generalized to say, really. Murdering is bad and murderers are bad people. Raping is bad and rapist are bad people. Pretty much, in my generalized eye, if you do something bad then you're a bad person. Speeding is bad so if you speed, you're a bad person. Not modding a thread makes you a bad person also and so on so forth.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[COLOR="SlateGray"][SIZE="1"]Why of course we fancy online matches! Go ahead and download Hamachi. Its a lan-over-net program and then join our LAN server. Our being me, Jokopoko, and Gavin and while you're at it join our Ventrilo server. We play alot of matches with eachother against the computer but we're thinking of starting up some adverse games if enough OBers take interest. Just hollar at me for the details on Hamachi and Vent.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Alright, alrighty. I'm back! This time, though, I'm here to raise awareness of this fantastic game! Huzzah! The game is an RTS, sure, and that might be a put-off for some of you but, really, it's less RTS and more RTC (Real Time Combat). Screw resource management. It sucks, I know. Every StarCraft player knows they'd be much better at the game if they didn't have to harvest stupid ol' resources. There is, however, resources to get. By capturing strategic points across the map you accumulate more and faster the Requisition Resource which is needed to build more troops and vehicles. So, while you're not micro-managing resources you're still getting it but this time by fighting for it. Anyway. What I figured I'd do is give you a run-down and some links to pictures on each of the races strength and weaknesses. [B][URL=http://uk.games-workshop.com/spacemarines/painting-blood-ravens/images/dow-blood-raven.jpg]Space Marines[/URL]:[/B] These are your all-purpose, all-tactical battle suit equipped badasses. They can do any job. They can do ranged combat and they can get in close to fight, but they don't excel in any aspect. The Space Marines also have alot of vehicles to use like transports, tanks, walking mech battlesuits, and other. And they also have alot of what I like to call 'Hero Units', which are really powerful units that while you can only have one they are worth many. Pick these guys if you like a generalized faction that doesn't lean on doing one thing or another. Can do it all, just not best at doing so. [B][URL=http://www.ic-games.co.uk/images/screenshots/2157/screenshots/3.jpg]Orks[/URL]:[/B] Numbers are the name for these guys. They don't have any new fangled technology, and they don't have any fancy smancy psychic units. Just big brawn, powerful guns and lots and lots of units. They do have vehicles and those vehicles while delicate in comparison to other faction vehicles can dole out a whole heap of punishment. Everything you do with the Orks should be done en masse. So pick these guys if you like to rush in with numbers, not finesse. [B][URL=http://www.thedancemacabre.com/craftworldmod/ingame/newpaintjob.jpg]Eldar[/URL]:[/B] These are you futuristic Elves. So...Think elves. Most units specialize in one type of attack only. So ranged units are range and close combat units are close combat. Their Hero Units are especially powerful and they also get the Avatar of Khaine, a towering monolith of *** kickery. They also have access to wonderful vehicles like the Fire Prism which can make short work of even the Space Marines Predator tank and even have access to hovering weapon platforms that can be mixed in with general units. Pick these guys if you like really fast, and specialized to one type of combat units. [B][URL=http://www.wgpower.net/articles/dawn/082.gif]Chaos Space Marines[/URL]: [/B] Goth kids dream made manifest! I present to you: Chaos Marines! The general tacical marine units of Chaos are like the Space Marines. Generalized. They're good at doing everything but don't excel at anything and thats about where the similarities end. The Chaos have access to the powers of, well, Chaos and as such can summon specialized units like Horrors which are crafty little demons that throw Hell fire, or they can send out Possessed Squads which rip enemies apart in close combat. Like the Eldar they have access to a single, monolithic figure: Bloodthirster. A unit that thrives on destruction and while a powerful unit it will only stay on the plane of existence unless it's thirst for blood has been satisfied. Or until killed. Pick the forces of Chaos if you like almost all specialized units. [B][URL=http://www.druidika.de/images/dowwaunitlist/big/chimera.jpg]Imperial Guard[/URL]: [/B] A focus on large masses of troops coupled with deadly ranged attacks. For the Imperial Guard, mass firepower wins the day. Think Orks but instead of rushing in and choppin' things up you rush in and shoot things up. The Hero Units the Imperial Guard get can be used to instill fear in the hearts of men. Your squad not fighting as well as you want them to? Use the Execute command and your Commissar will execute one of his own men to strike fear and loyalty into the hearts of comrades. Trust me. They'll fight better this way. The Imperial Guard's structures are also unique in the fact that they can be garrisoned and thus become turrets. The Imperial Guard also have the luxury of some of the most powerful vehicles in the game. Use these guys if you like lots of firepower, and vehicle usage. [B][URL=http://www.online-station.net/_news/2006/1220/07180_warhammer_dacru_02.jpg]Tau[/URL]:[/B] Like the Imperial Guard, ranged wins the day! However, most Tau units cannot hold a candle to any of the other factions in terms of hand-to-hand. So get back and start shooting or let your only melee focused allies; The Kroot cut them up while you shoot them down. Their vehicle units are also unique in that they can use Infiltration, so, they can become invisible. Some of the Tau ground units can also use this excellent trait. Use these guys if you want an almost only ranged army. [B][URL=http://img.hexus.net/v2/gaming/screenshots/warhammer40k1_small.jpg]Necrons[/URL]:[/B] Slow, dead, and powerful. This race is the ultimate land based army. With almost no vehicles they make use of very specialized units. Some units shoot, some chop but they all rise from the dead. Thats right. Rise from the dead. When you take down a necron unit it has a chance of reassembling and getting back into the fight. This faction is also unique in that it doesn't use the Requistion Resource needed to train new troops. Instead they capture strategic points like all the other factions but they use them to reduce the time to create new units. Use these guys if you want powerful units. Very powerful units. But don't care they walk as slow as turtles.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Screw your repeat threads, they are not good for you. Either way. I've had alot of handles but the only about three that have been around for any length of time are my variants of[B] silpheed[/B] and [B]silpheedpilot[/B] which silpheed being the fighter craft in a videogame (Also named Silpheed, my personal favorite shooter) and pilot being, uh, the person who pilots the craft. Simple enough. Another of mine that has stuck through the years has been [B]A Merc For Hire[/B] naturally a war type name I normally used that handle in videogames. Many ones such as Delta Force 2, CSS, Battlefield 2 and so on and so forth. My Xbox Live GamerTag is also [B]A Merc For Hire[/B] And the last one I'm known for is [B]Mister Riot[/B]. Not only is it my AIM handle I normally use that one for arcade name entries and all my save data names, and normally the name of my created or re-named hero go under the name [B]Riot[/B], [B]Mr. Riot[/B], or [B]Mister Riot[/B]. Heck, even one of my WoW characters is a variant of [B]Mister Riot[/B], albeit heavily modified. His name is Mistteriote.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[quote name='2007DigitalBoy'][COLOR="DarkOrange"]What I don't get is, how and to whom are we going to show this look to? Are we just suposed to like, go to the mall looking like that and chill or what? I mean, as a borderline hikikomeri, it's not like anyone's gunna see tha transition, and it's not like my mindset is changed or anything >_>[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Well, as my opening post stated...You gotta act that part. So, yeah, sure go to the mall with some friends but act completely the stereotype you chose to be for that day. Take pictures, note reactions, and generally just record the data you collect throughout the day. Sure are a lot of questions and complaints about impracticality for such an easy challenge/experiment. Here. I'll explain in [B]easy-mode[/B]: 1. Stereotype yourself 2. Pick a stereotype you hate. 3. Transform into that stereotype for a day. 4. Record how people act towards you, the looks you got, what your friends said, and so on so forth. [/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]The whole thing is really practical. Sure, you might have to buy some things but you can generally pull of a different look with what you've got. It's all in the way you present yourself. Wearing baggy dickies, and a plain black shirt with scraggy un-kempt hair and maybe a wrist band or two will turn you into one of those mallcore kids. Simply taking the wrist bands off, lookin' for and working on a hairstyle with gels and stuff to look nice and generally having your black clothing look nice, wrinkle free, and clean will turn you from mallcore into, say, contemporary. Its easy. Just get creative with what money you don't have. Borrow the little things like hair clips, wrist bands, shoes, whatever. Hey, can't call it a challenge if it's easy.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"][COLOR="SlateGray"]Enough thread repeats, please! Here I am, the Saviour of our fair OB, to issue a challenge of stereotyping! Everyone is stereotyped. I don't care who you are, what your skin color is, the private parts in your pants, the music you listen to, the WAY YOU DRESS...Everyone is stereotyped. So, here's the challenge. Think about yourself as though you're stereotyping someone who dresses just like you. Act like you don't know them (you), and all you're doing is making assumptions about the person (you) by looking at their shirt, shoes, pants, the way they (you) wear their hair on a daily or normal basis and such and such. Then...Put yourself into a basic archetype. Jock, emo, scene, goth, punk, skater, prep...So on so forth. Get creative but make it sensible and basic. Then go ahead and look at the other side of the spectrum and think about a stereotype you really just can't stand. The way they dress, the way they act, the way they are. Then...Dress like them for a day, act like them for a day, and generally be that stereotype for a day. Make sure you go out in public so you can see peoples reactions that you'd normally not see from them. Go to your friends and see how they act, be like that around your parents or significant other but don't break character! Then go ahead and record in some way the experience, peoples thoughts, the looks you got out in public by means of notes, an essay at the end of the day, pictures, a recording...Anything really, then go ahead and tell us all on here about your experience in detail. Would it make you think otherwise before trashing another stereotype? Did you feel lower than the way you were acting? Did you feel better? Do you have better appreciation for that music style? Anyway, I've kept you long enough. A simple, basic rule before you set out to conquest the land of stereotypes. Make sure when all is said and done you post a picture of the way you dressed before the challenge and the way you dressed during the challenge. Lets make this fun. Lets make this non-repeated topic EPIC! [U]Oh, and another thing. This is not a debate thread so don't come in here debating about who and who isn't stereotyped and why and whether stereotypes exist at all and yadda yadda whatever.[/U] Alright, go! Shoo![/COLOR][/SIZE]

[COLOR="SlateGray"][SIZE="1"]Who cares? Gays will be gays and straight people will be straight. Just like white racists will always be white racists and black racists will always be black racists. People aren't going to change their views just because people got butthurt they were discriminated. Discrimination runs rampant through the USA so much still and it ain't gonna change anytime soon. There isn't well enough awareness on such the taboo that is homosexuality for straight people to really conceive whats the 'big deal'. Personally, I don't believe in Christianity or any other form of religion and such I think that a really old book that says you should and shouldn't do things is in any condition to be making demands. Hey, look, if you're gay do your thing and don't let people who believe in some unseen, unknown 'force' tell you thats wrong. Really, I agree with; 'They're just lovin' someone' and thats fine. I'll leave you with the best summary for homosexuality.. "The Todd appreciates hot, regardless of gender." - The Todd; 'Scrubs'[/SIZE][/COLOR]

It's only been out for 5 days and I'm gonna say it's the best game ever made. In other news, real news..More cannibals and crap? Virus this and that? Protect yourself? Really, this the new bird flu or something? Honestly. The Government really sucks at covering shit up. I honestly think it's something else. It's not Cthulhu like I had originally thought, of course not of course, and it's not zombies.. It's like..People are getting sick off some crazy ass new virus and dying. Like uber-ebola. Neat, huh? Whatever. Viruses don't concern me, really. The bird flu never hit Kansas too much so I'm not too worried about this string or whatever. The cannibalism are kinda freaky, though. Those are close. In a lil' area called LeCompton. East of Topeka a bit, the whole area is quarantined off. Hope the cops ice 'em, though, cause I wanna see some blood shed on prime time TV! Enough about zombie-like things and dumb new viruses. So my girlfriend and I are planning on going to Colorado sometime this winter for Christmas. Ya know, visit each others family.

Got on World of Warcraft and gained a new level. Hurray! Level 54! Oh, so check this crap out! Some dumb customer came in today and traded in some games, thats cool...whatever. So he goes to look at some games to get his trade in credit, thats cool too. Comes back up and I try to sell him a discount card. Seriously, I don't make commission so I'm trying to help this guy out. Apparently his wife was there with him but I never saw her walk in and she was on the other register just swiping her card away on the machine. I kinda looked over and her and was like; 'Uhh..can I help you? Oh, you're with him! Gotcha.' So she continued to swipe her card. What the hell? I then looked at her and said; 'Yeah, you gotta stop swiping and come over here' Then I tried to sell them the discount card again. No luck and then they looked pissed when they left. A few hours later I got an email on the computer saying I got a customer complaint from those two bastards saying I teased them for trading in games and treating them bad. Whatever. Retarded, huh? Another thing kinda worth nothing is that on the news they were talking about cannibals but, like, dead people cannibals. It's probably the Cult of Cthulhu doing stuff here in Kansas! Or zombies...Either one would be sweet.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]
