What's the weirdest thing you've ever seen on the internet?
The F-Bomb replied to PaganAngel's topic in General Discussion
x-ray pornography: it's exactly what it sounds like, and while it's not exactly the grossest thing ever, it's definitely very interesting. Tub girl and goatse also definitely make the list. -
I wouldn't really worry about this being the last season. Keifer Sutherland has already signed up for a 6th season so hopefully that puts everybody's worries to rest. Anyways, I really like the direction that this season is taking, though I still can't believe how many major characters they've killed off so far. I can only pray that Audrey is the next on the list, I hate that *****.

[QUOTE=The Boss][color=darkgreen][size=1] [B]Green Day:[/B] I actually got into Green Day back on their first album, Dookie. I, however, quickly got annoyed with some of their singles. It took a couple more years and the release of American Idiot for me to get back into them. [/color][/size][/QUOTE] *Sigh* only a Green Day fan when they're big, eh? For that matter, Dookie is in fact Green Day's third album. Sorry, but as a huge Green Day fan I find your ignorance almost offensive. I just hate it when people think that Green Day started with Dookie. Anyways, on to my favorite bands in top 10 order 10. Suburban Legends - A totally bitchin' ska band with some incredibly uplifting tunes. Sure, they sound a bit like Reel Big Fish, but I just find they're music to be a little more energizing (granted none of their songs actually top Reel Big Fish's "Beer"). Check out the songs "High Fives" and "Alternative is Dead" 9. Jupiter Sunrise - a really great alternative band. These guys (and gal) are extremely talented and are continually expanding their musical horizons, not being chained down by any particular musical style. Every song on their album "Under a Killer Blue Sky" is incredible. Check out their songs "Arthur Nix" and "Josie's House" to get a feel for each of Jupiter Sunrise's singers. 8. The Ramones - Simple yet catchy melodies, a true classic. I'm not even gonna recommend songs because you SHOULD already know their music (at least casually) 7. Panic! at the Disco - Sounds a little like Fall Out Boy, but with a little bit of electronica thrown into the mix. And oh is it a beautiful mix. Every song on their one cd is a gem, but I'd recommend checking out "The Only Difference Between Martyrdom and Suicide is Less Press Coverage" and "Time to Dance" 6. The Matches - Some damn good rock by a small band trying to make it about a small band trying to make it. Check out "Audio Blood" and now I'm lazy so here's the rest 5. Less Than Jake 4. AFI 3. Tsunami Bomb 2. Lucky Boys Confusion 1. Green Day

To those high school freshman that feel like their first year was deadly, don't worry too much about it. Not a whole lot of people actually like their first year of high school, but trust me, it gets better. You and the people around you will grow a lot in the next 3 years, and a lot of times your peers will become a lot less judgemental. Tomorrow, when you go to school take a good look around you... damn netha6ar any of those people could become a good friend by the end of senior year. I hated freshman year of high school too, but by the end of senior year I had forged valuable long-lasting relationships with people I never thought I would be hanging out with. You'd be surprised what can change over the course of 4 short years. To those graduating from high school and embarking on your college journey, the best advice I can give you is to not make the mistake I made my first semester - partying waaaaaaay too much. Damn near all college freshman make the mistake of getting a little too wild and crazy with their newfound freedom and wind up skipping classes. I think I woke up someplace unfamiliar about 4 times last semester and let me tell you, it's no fun. I know right now you're worried about your friends and whether or not you'll stay in touch, but you shouldn't really. As long as you make the effort to stay in touch they wil still be there for you. Unfortunately I still think you're gonna have to get used to the idea of losing touch with people though. It WILL happen and I'm very sorry, but that's the way it is. Friends and girlfriends/boyfriends will come and go surprisingly fast in college, but trust me when I say you will get used to it. Oh, and whatever you're planning on becoming right now... odds are you won't be wanting to become that by the end of your first semester. Things are gonna get shaken up, so just hold on tight.

Cheyne: Why? Alex Why not? Cheyne: How can you answer a question with another question? Alex: Isn't that the point of the game? Cheyne: What game? Alex: Aren't we playing a game right now? Cheyne: How would I know? Alex: Shouldn't you know if you're playing a game? Cheyne: Well, what kind of game is it? Alex: Didn't Nomura say it was a game in which we could only ask questions? Cheyne: Then wouldn't you say we're doing quite well? Alex: Yea, but there was some other rule wasn't there? Cheyne: Weren't we supposed to try and be funny? Alex: I guess we suck then, don't we? Cheyne: Shouldn't you show a little more confidence in yourself? Alex: Don't chicks dig confidence? Cheyne: If you realize it then shouldn't you try it out? Alex: How about on that girl over there? Cheyne: Why don't you try this line then? (Whispers to Alex and Alex goes to the girl) Alex: I bought this condom, could you show me how to use it? Girl: Sure sweetie, wanna go somewhere private? (they exit) Cheyne: Did he realize that was a hooker? -

Well, being presently drunkish my book report will closely resemble a stoner's... Unless of course anybody on here posts high. So there's this book called 1984 and it's all about this dude Big Brother that seems to get off on watching you all the freakin time, which is wierd I think, though not just because it's a little creepy. I mean, I had a big brother and he NEVER wanted to pay attention to me. The only time I could get more than few sentences out of him was when I took his bag of weed and smoked all of it. I mean, what was he gonna do? Tell mom? HAHAHAHA. Right, I can see it now. Mooooooooooooooooooooooooom, Cheyne smoked all my weed!! In his face!! That's what he gets for ignoring me. Actually, that's not entirely true. He did get me back. He took my girlfriend away from me and began to torture me until I confessed. I love big brother. -
It's actually easier for me to pinpoint the kind of music I don't like than the kind I do, so I'm gonna stick with that because I'll love just about everything else. I hate, country (if I hear my roommate play "She thinks my tractor's sexy" one more time I'll have his head), rap, metal (most forms of it), and tween pop Otherwise, I'm a big fan of Punk, Ska, Reggae, Jazz, Pop Punk, Emo, Techno, and anything that fuses these musical styles together.

Let me give this a shot. I write comedy stuff as a kind of hobby so I'll probably get a little carried away with this, so here goes: *Jibble the Sandwich, Strawberry Burton, and Krispy Kreme Redfield are all trapped inside of a room, stoner zombies (kind of redundant really) are on the other side of the door, which is the only escape from the room for our poor, delicious, heroes* Jibble: Krispy, is there a lock on the door! Krispy: Negative Jibble! Strawberry: Oh ****, that means we've only got a few minutes before they figure out how to get through! *On the other side of the door* Stoner Zombie #1 (staring blankly at the door knob): Dude, what the hell is this thing? Stoner Zombie #2: Ummmm, I dunno man. Can we eat it? *SZ1 puts his mouth on the doorknob and bites down hard on it* SZ1: Ow man, that hurt my teeth! SZ2: **** dude, maybe it's like a jawbreaker or something. SZ1: Oh those are so good man! SZ2: I'm gonna try sucking on it. *SZ2 struggles to fit the doorknob in his mouth, but eventually succeeds. He seems to enjoy it for a while until he tries to pull away, but he discovers that doorknob is stuck behind his teeth" SZ1: Dude. Dude! What's wrong dude!? *SZ2 can only get muffled sounds out* SZ1: Hold on man, let me help you! *After some struggle SZ2 is freed from the doorknob* SZ2: Thanks dude. SZ1: Don't mention it dude. SZ2: So what were we trying to do again? SZ1: Ummmm, I don't remember. SZ2: I've got the ******* hardcore munchies dude. SZ1: Aaaaaaaw, dude. I know what we should do! SZ2: What? SZ1: Let's drive to the store and get some Doritos! SZ2: DORITOS!! Oh, but dude, should you be driving stoned? SZ1: I drive better when I'm high, don't worry. *So the stoner zombies set out on their adventure to find the car in the garage, and it is only after many well fought battles against the various doorknobs in the house that they achieve they come upon their greatest challenge yet, the car door. Meanwhile, Jibble and company are still inside the confines of their room.* Jibble: Strawberry, have they left the house yet? Strawberry (with his ear against the wall): They're in the garage, they seem to be having trouble with the door handle. Jibble: Do you think it's safe to get out of here yet? Krispy: I think we better wait for them to be completely gone, they could still come back in. Jibble: Strawberry? Strawberry: Agreed. (Back to the stoner zombies) SZ1: Dude, there's some kind of invisible shield on this thing. SZ2: I think it's called a window, man. SZ1: Oh right, I've heard of those. SZ2: Try hitting it. *SZ1 hits his head on the glass, but only hard enough to crack it* SZ1: Ow dude! SZ2: Hey, it's working! Do it again! SZ1: Why don't you, cockmonger!? *SZ2 does and breaks the glass completely. Both make it into the car through much effort and settle in. SZ1 in driver's seat with SZ2 in passenger. They miraculously manage to start the car.* SZ1: I'm not so high anymore, dude. SZ2: Let's smoke another bowl!! SZ1: YEA!! *As they smoke the bowl in the car SZ1 has his foot on the gas pedal, and SZ2 accidentally shifts the car into drive. The car drives straight through the wall in front of them, and into the room with Jibble, Strawberry, and Krispy. The stoner zombies spot them.* SZ2: Dude! We made it to the store already! SZ1: I told you I drive better when I'm ripped -
Anime What anime do you wish you never saw in the first place?
The F-Bomb replied to serenayasha's topic in Otaku Central
I seriously wish I had never seen DBZ. It RUINED my life like a drug. My obsession with it was so great I lost friends over it (no joke). My grades dropped, I became severely depressed, I lost all my money to it. And the worst part is I never even finished watching it. But I'v e been DBZ-free for about 4 years now and am doing well, thanks for asking. -
As a frequent user of illustrator I must say I'm quite impressed with the results of your butterfly. In fact, it got me a little bit scared. I've always considered myself to be such a damn good illustrator but I can't say I've turned anything out that's quite the quality of that butterfly (unless I use a picture as reference). It sounds like your Illustrator lessons were far more comprehensive than mine ever were (I'm mostly self-taught).

A while ago I got bored with my pitiful attempts at trying to create large animations so I decided to settle for a medium better suited to my time schedule. This was how Cartoon Zeroes was born. By putting my talents in Adobe Illustrator to use I created this monster... this social life destroying monster. So please read on and give me some feedback on these things so that I can find solace in the fact that I've wasted valuable time that could have been spent getting some (or at least trying to) or doing schoolwork. btw, it's mostly meant for my friends so here's a brief character rundown so you know who's who and why you should laugh (though most of the jokes don't require knowing the real people) Blond guy - Me (Cheyne) Brown long-haired horny guy - Andy Long-haired Mexican dude that's obsessed with being Irish though he really isn't - Luna Spiky-haired guy - Charlie Kid with earring - Brad Runtas UW Shirt Guy - Matt Runtas The rest of the characters are fictitious [url]http://img479.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=5compiled3uc.jpg[/url]

Well, these are all things I've drawn out of boredom during my volunteer period in the graphics lab at school. I couldn't post these at school so I printed them out and scanned them in at home. I tried to make some color corrections in photoshop to correct any degradation that may have happened during the crossover, but it was honestly a half-assed attempt. Still, I'm just looking for a place to put these on the net so I figured I'd drop 'em here. Most of these were printed out at an incomplete phase of drawing (most are about 90% done, I just need to do some cleaning up), but feel free to comment on them anyways. 1. Clay Stomp logo contest piece - this baby won me 1st place in a district-wide contest this year. All art students were required to enter, but I, the only non-art student to make a submission managed to win the $100 savings bond 2. Futuristic Samurai Birdman - doodled this guy during calc, then drew him on the computer the next day 3. Skinner - angry old priest. I wrote a short flash toon script with this guy as the star. I still need to animate the darn thing. 4. Damien & Harold Main Cast - more character concepts for a script I wrote. This shows the main cast of characters for the toon. 5. DH Supporting Cast- supporting cast of characters for the previously mentioned cartoon. This one's probably the least complete of the batch.

I'd have to say that Green Day's American Idiot Tour show was pretty goddamn amazing. Few bands can match the sheer amount of energy they display on stage. The songs all just seem to hit harder and sound faster than they do on their albums. I've been to a number of shows and I can honestly say that I've never seen another band control a crowd like Billie Joe (lead singer of the band, for the uninformed). When you're in the crowd, you know you're his ***** and you'll do anything he tells you to. Of course, there's always entertaining Green Day show staples like pulling audience members out to play the instruments (in which the guitarist chosen is lucky enough to keep the guitar he/she plays) and Billie Joe kissing at least one male per show (usually that same guitarist).

I've actually been watching anime since before I even knew it was anime. I was probably 5 or 6 when I started watching Speed Racer on TV. A few years after that came a brief one year Pokemon phase. It wasn't until DBZ started airing on Cartoon Network that I really began to understand what anime was. However, I didn't really expand outside of DBZ for a while. After I got out of DBZ, which was quite a while before the series finished on CN, I stopped liking anime for a few years. However, after Cowboy Bebop aired in the early days of the adult swim, I became a full-fledged anime devotee. I haven't turned my back since.

[quote name='Zeta']Even though this may sound kind of mean, I don't mean to be. My mom is probably the most annoying persom I know, lol. Every single second I hear "Mattt!!" Do this, do that, why haven't you done this yet, why can you blah blah. It gets quite annoying. And then the way she always says to keep my music or T.V. low, when I am right next to the things and I myself can't even hear it, heh.[/quote] Dude, I swear to God that on a silent night, if I listen very closely, I can hear your mom screaming "Maaaatt!!" all the way up here in Wisconsin. More seriously, the most annoying person I've ever met would have to be a reading teacher I had while I was in middle school, Mrs. Wesson. Her duck-like voice and waddle are forever etched in my memory. I swear, the next time I hear somebody say ,"It's time to shift gears class", heads will roll. It's not what she says, it's the waaaaay she says it. She could make the nicest compliment sound like the meanest insult. As for me, I only get annoying under certain circumstances, but those don't come up very often. I generally make a conscious effort to not be annoying. At least when speaking with somebody in person.

[quote name='Desbreko][color=#4B0082]And am I the only one who thinks that Akane [i]is[/i] actually cute? I mean, sure, she dislikes most guys -- but I think that's justified. Just look at the guys she has to put up with at school. ... Especially Kuno. I mean, I have to give her credit for not inflicting more bodily harm on him than she does. And she seems to like Ryoga well enough (she called him a friend in one episode, I remember), so it's obviously not [i]all[/i'] guys. Myself, I like her personality, and I think she also looks cute enough after getting her hair cut. (Short hair really does suit her better.)[/color][/quote] No, you're not the only person that think Akane's cute. Akane is a generally underrated character. There are many times in the series where Akane is shown to be an incredibly caring and kind person, but most of those are overshadowed by bickering between her and Ranma. Unfortunately, this is the side that you get to see most in the series, and it is almost always because Ranma has done something to piss her off. And if her anger doesn't involve something Ranma did, it's something one of Ranma's many suitors is trying to do to him. This is the only real situation that I think Akane would be acting unrealistically in, but her unreasonable anger is definitely humorous, as it is meant to be. So basically I'm supporting Desbreko's point even further... Akane is definitely justified in almost all of her anger fits, and if she is treated with respect (as all people deserve), then she is a person with a really great personality. All she would need to do is change her living environment and she'd be a more likeable character, but where would the fun be in that?

Well, I like it, but as requested I'll try to help you make improvements. 1. As a general rule when I make wallpapers, I prefer to keep just about all of the action on the right side of the screen and make the left side pretty sparse. This is more of a personal preference thing since I like to have my various icons fill up the entire left half of the screen. However, I do believe quite a few people don't use desktop icons, so this suggestion really boils down to a matter of preference. 2. It looks like the Majin on the right is a completely different drawing than the Majin on the left. Rather than using two different Majin drawings, create 2 separate layers, each with the same Majin image (preferrably the color one in this situation). On one of those layers, reflect the image and experiment with filters to see if you can create a similar effect (I'm certain it's possible, but I'm too lazy to figure it out right now), then position it wherever you feel it might be necessary to. 3. The focus of the wallpaper looks to be more on the sort of starry background than on the Majin. While the bg is nice, I'd recommend making the Majin bigger, at least if the image quality allows. You don't necessarily need to have a full body shot, you know. And that's my 2 cents

I was bored one day and I decided to throw this together in PS in about a half hour. I just wanted some opinions on it. I don't plan on altering it to create a banner or an avatar or anything, I just want to know what some of you might think of it. BTW, in case anybody doesn't know, it's of Leo from ZOE (as if it doesn't say it on the darn thing anyways) and the Orbital Frame he pilots in the first game, Jehuty. Edit*: Gee, it seems that nobody has any feedback at all. I know some of you have looked at it, so pleeease tell me what you think. As far as I can tell, it's either so good that nobody has anything to say, or so bad that people don't wanna make me feel bad. Of course, I can't rule out the possibiluty something in between. So really, I know nothing at all. I really do wanna know what people think of this little showcase of my talents. So please respond! :)

What was the most embarrassing moment you had in public...
The F-Bomb replied to So-Seductive's topic in General Discussion
[quote name='Zeta'] Needless to say, some of the people in my car wouldn't let me hear the end of it. -_-[/quote] Like me for instance :laugh: . I almost forgot about that one... my God was that HILARIOUS!! We were so close to hitting that soccer goal! Well, I suppose you won't have to worry much about driving in the snow anymore. -
From Love Hina, I'd say Naru's fist is the ultimate weapon. Anything with as much power as that thing can't be of this world :D . More seriously, my favorite anime weapon is Gorra Nova, the sword of light from Slayers. Generally, the weapon itself isn't a whole lot more special than your typical light sword, but when [spoiler] Phibrizzo takes control of Gourry, the one that wields the sword, you get to see the true to potential of Gorra Nova. Needless to say, the enormous amount of power it has is astonishing, making it something akin to a gigantic laser cannon. Not only that, but it also gains the ability to absorb some of the most powerful spells, including the Dragon Slave[/spoiler] [COLOR=Navy]To create spoiler tags, just type [spoiler*]text[/spoiler], minus the asterisk. Thank you very much for being so considerate. :) ~Dagger~[/COLOR] It was no trouble Dagger, and thank you very much for helping me out :)

What was the most embarrassing moment you had in public...
The F-Bomb replied to So-Seductive's topic in General Discussion
My most embarassing moment had to be at my Junior prom. I'd had about 15 sodas, all of which were either Coke or Mountain Dew. Needless to say, I was acting incredibly hyper. During one of the songs, I decided to try breakdancing, which is something I've never done before. Fortunately, most people didn't see it, but the people that did see it decided to form a dance ring around me. I quickly leapt back into the crowd as a few good dancers decided to show what they could do. By this time, pretty much everbody was interested in the dance ring and people were fighting for a better view. At this time, the people that saw me breakdance the first time started wanting me to go back in. Finally, there was one voice that called out to me and stuck out in my mind... the voice of a girl I had a crush on. With that call, I leapt back into the circle and tried again. This time was worse than the first, and about 3 times longer. The entire thing was embarassing, but I think I was better off for it. Almost everybody got a huge laugh out of it and I gave everybody in school something to remember me by. In short, it may have been humiliating, but I'm glad as all hell that I did. Besides, that little stunt got me some [I]fine[/I] dance partners for the rest of the night (note: I went to prom dateless). -
[quote name='Zeta']Woah man, woah man. Yeah I did....-_- what up yo![/quote] lol, I know it's not like I haven't talked to you in a while, but I didn't think you were still posting here :D (I'm assuming you know who this is, since I'm using the same name I use on CS with you) Many, many fun memories about cruising in your car. Just wish we could have relived them when you visited this summer. Even though I haven't listened to the CD a lot outside of your car, Cold's CD definitely holds a special place in my heart. Mostly for reasons I would rather leave undiscussed on these boards, but you know what I'm talking about :cool:.

[QUOTE=Zeta]Linkin Park-Hybrid Theory no doubt. I remember getting it kind of close to its relase date, maybe a week or two after, and man was I in love. I listened to it all the time while playing Starcraft. IT is all I would listen to for months. Cold-Year of the Spider Wow is all I can say for this one. I just love it, from the first track to the last. Granted I got it a little while, more like a long while, after it first came out, I picked it up one day at Best Buy when my friend and I went at 8 in the morning, staying up all night. Popped it in and just fell in love. For weeks, hell possibly months, it is all friends and I would listen to when we were out and about driving, which was 98% of the time. Sooo many memories to this CD, I have to love it. Resident Evil: Apocalypse soundtrack What can I say, I just love the CD. Even better bands on this one, like Cold...Lacuna Coil.....The Cure. I love it. Besides, I love Resident Evil, everything mind you, even if it does suck, lol.[/QUOTE] JFC man, you sound almost exactly like this friend of mine. Hmmmm, your b-day is the same too. Did you by any chance move to Georgia in the last couple months? If so, hellooooooooooo Matty!! And if not, this must all sound odd to you. (The chances are actually pretty good, since I know this friend used to go on these boards) Anyhow, 3 CDs that changed my life? Lemme think... 1. LP: Hybrid Theory - this seems to be a popular choice, but if it wasn't for this CD, I would probably still be a C+ average student. Music has proven to help me study, and this CD was where it all began. And believe me, getting good grades was the best thing that ever happened to me. 2. Green Day: Dookie - Green Day has been my favorite band since this album was released. This was probably one of the first CDs I ever bought, and it has shaped my taste in music ever since. For me, some bands just seem cool for a while, but I grow out of them. Green Day, however, will be with me for all time. 3. Evanescence: Fallen - I cried during "My Immortal" nuff said.

[quote name='Sol-Blade']Hey now, I take offense to that. Im Hawaiian and in no way fat...just husky. Haha, no really though, im Hawaiian and im not fat. Just sarcastic. I hated "Hawaiian Shirt Day" more than anything else.[/quote] Well, it wasn't necessarily meant to poke fun at Hawaiians. The contrast between the size of a fat man and the size of a ukelele is what is mostly humorous. However, a ukelele player just isn't a ukelele player without a hawaiian shirt.
