  1. [youtube=Lego Dark Knight]StWZDqqBfJo[/youtube] This is pretty cool.
  2. [SIZE=3][SIZE=4][FONT=Chiller LET][COLOR=Sienna]If anyone tried to kill me my survival instinct would kick in. Doesn't matter what the reason is, if you're going to try and kill me, prepare to be killed. [/COLOR] :p[/FONT][/SIZE][/SIZE]
  3. [quote name='vegeta rocker']Reasons why Cloverfield sucked: 3. The whole justification of shooting every single thing including the floor... If it was realistic he would have held it lower than his head so at least he can still have his peripheral vision intact. And apparently his handy cam has an eternal battery, he plugs in like once.[/quote] I thought it was quite consistent with home movie quality. We've got heaps of the amateur stuff sitting around here and there were plenty of cases where someone has taped the floor or forgot to turn off record when done etc... My handycam can easily last two hours filming nonstop, which is shorter than this movie. [quote] I'm not looking forward to the sequel, and YES there will be one.[/quote] Well, you don't have to [spoiler] see the film.[/spoiler] :p
  4. If all else fails, a bucket of water should do the trick.
  5. [quote name='Desbreko'][COLOR=#4b0082]You put the video ID from the video's URL between the tags, as shown on the vB Code List page I linked to there. Because the embed code for inserting a video links directly to the video itself, copying the URL from a video's web page on youtube.com wouldn't work. [/COLOR][/quote] [kuja] I missed the end of that page, perhaps it didn't load for me the first time around. All I got last time was the initial codelist. :)[/kuja]
  6. [kuja] So do you put the whole embed code inside the tags, or do you just use the direct url? 'Tis a nifty little player. :D[/kuja]
  7. [quote name='Ikillion'][COLOR=#6d527f][SIZE=1][FONT=Trebuchet MS]So does this mean that I am the only one here who actually enjoys whipped cream with his waffles? ... You all are [I]insane[/I].[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/quote] [quote name='ZeitGeist']I like waffles. They make for a tasty snack, especially when served hot with [SIZE=4]lashings of whipped cream [/SIZE]and strawberry jam. [/quote] Ahem, I've either made it to your ignore list, or you haven't seen me. Either way, you're not alone. ;)
  8. [quote name='James'][FONT=franklin gothic medium]I would like a YouTube embed tag, for sure. I think there are a million great uses for it on OtakuBoards (even potentially in RPGs). So the usefulness would far outweigh any copyright concerns I have.[/FONT][/quote] Plus, if you find any violators, you can delete 'em! :catgirl: I like the YouTube tag idea, it would certainly add something extra to threads such as the recent YouTube one. Playing linked videos on the forum itself would be much more convenient.
  9. And here I was thinking that this forum had degenerated into a den of debauchery and [I]forbidden love.[/I] Feel free to make it so, one day... :p
  10. [IMG]http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/1349/norduk3.jpg[/IMG] [B][SIZE=2][SIZE=2]Nord-Trøndelag county municipality is a psychadelic funk/metal fusion band more noteable for their bizarre belief that the island and events depicted in the Lost television series are really happening. The lead singer, Sledo McSloshoposo, has donated millions of dollars and a lot of time in order to "find the island and rescue everybody."[/SIZE][/SIZE][/B] Their album, titled "event sof this year" seem to allude to the recent years current events, but are actually encrypted lyrics which chronicle the events of the TV series. They are considered one of the weirdest bands ever, mainly because they can't distinguish between fact and fiction. [IMG]http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/315/crawfordsburnhk6.jpg[/IMG] Crawfordsburn are a rap duo who hail from the town of, Crawfordsburn! The pair teamed up in 1993 under record producer Sly Da Ph3ar. They achieved mild success with their highly-charged political anthem, 'A Good Political Year' which appeared on their 1995 self-titled album. They have not achieved hit status since, and are frequenters of the underground music scene. [IMG]http://img523.imageshack.us/img523/1056/lateriticyn9.jpg[/IMG] Lateritic nickel ore deposits were a swedish yodelling duo who found breif fame in the early 1980's mainly because all their music videos featured Liikie, a dancing goat. They yodeled through nine world tours, with a lot of fans showing up sporting ear plugs, obviously there simply to see a dancing goat. Beyond the dancing goat, there is nothing too special or rememberable about Lateritic nickel ore deposits.
  11. [quote name='timotheus'] I'm just curious if the Intelligent Design supporters came from that same upbringing, or if after studying Biology in a non religious school, they compared it to their beliefs and stayed with ID.[/quote] I came from a mainstream school independent of any church or religious teaching. In the end, I took what I knew from science, and applied it to faith. (ie. the big bang is consistent with things simply appearing in Genesis 1, evolution adaptation as a survival method built into creation by an intelligent creator etc...) I found nothing in science that shook my belief, only the occasional argument against creationism that strengthened it.
  12. I like waffles. They make for a tasty snack, especially when served hot with lashings of whipped cream and strawberry jam. Put it this way; If I had to choose between my dream wallfe concoction or being hit over the head with an excessively large steel mallet, guess which one I'd pick. :catgirl:
  13. [IMG]http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/857/louisegorecz2.jpg[/IMG] Lousie Gore initially found fame with the New Valenci'e Philharmonic orchestra. She played in many performances ranging from classic recitals to movie scores. In 2005, she decided to go solo with this effort, "Hunter and Stop Figiding. The album was a universal flop, consisting of nothing but cover songs, re-imagined using nothing but performances of the original song bassline. The cover of "You really got me" consists of one line featuring akon singing "girl, you really got me" followed by a repetitive and hollow performance of the bassline, consistent with the other songs. Fans of Akon were dismayed when they bought the album that had gleefully pronounced in one of those promo stickers that it did, in fact, feature Akon. Akon sucessfully sued Gore in 2006 citing the fact that he had perfomred the entire song for the album, and Gore had cut most of his performance because there was too much "blah-blah." Gore retired from music in 2008. She is a known protester of using vocals, guitars, pianos, woodwind, brass and drums in music. [IMG]http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/9981/intertialkz8.jpg[/IMG] Electronica eighties band, Inertial Electrostatic Confinement released their sophomore album, "The Randomness of Victimisation" in 1985. The album was a hit amongst the bands target audience of chimpanzees and wasps. The album is set in a dystopic future where robots have inherited the world's worm farms, and harnessed all the of the suns rays into a death beam (the dystopic "New York" picture on the album cover is a depiction of a cloudless midday in this future.). In the album, and inspired musician called "Fuschia" builds a wall around himself to distance himself from the autonomous robots bent on fertilising the worlds soil the [I]wrong way[/I], ooh! In the end, "Fuschia" does battle with the robots, who have themselves morphed into machines resembling pigs wearing war helmets, and he overcomes them, setting the worlds worms free and reversing the effects on the sun. They invevitably failed to follow the success of this album with their third, "jumping the shark" by attempting to bring sharks into their target audience, alienating their traditional cimpanzee and wasp fanbase.
  14. This game is addictive. I would actually love to listen to the hit song "Leaving without that Mouse!!" If only such a crazy song were real. A few more... [img]http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/9190/nascarvt7.jpg[/img] NASCAR's Most Popular Driver award were a band of utter chaos and confusion. No-one could understand them, or their bizarre choice of band name. Fans who did show up at their concerts were most often dissapointed NASCAR fans who believed they had bought tickets to a genuine NASCAR gala event. The name of the band was made even more bizarre by the revelation that none of the band mambers were actually NASCAR fans. In 2004, they released their sixth sutio album, "You stop your story," featuring one of the most bizarre cover artworks ever. Their sucess diminished soon afterwards, when NASCAR sucessfully sued them over the rights to the name. They are now playing small gigs in bars under their new name "List of Grammy Nominees." [img]http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/5433/kalynaji8.jpg[/img] "Don't mess with Family," released in 1998, is the critically acclaimed album from bluegrass-swing band Kalyna Country. Fans and critics alike praised the album for it's seamless integration of swing, jazz and bluegrass country genres into one unique sound. Fans were wooed by such hits as "Daddy let them cows come home" and "Never to old (to swing the old barn door.)" Kalyna Country followed this album up with a sucessful world tour, and are currently working on their new album, a follow-up titled "Respect of the family."
  15. [img]http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/88/santanail2.jpg[/img] Heron Santana's tenth studio album was also his most infamous. Fans and Critics alike were stunned at the bold, and demanding nature of the title "Believe as I Believe." Singles from the album such as "Do as I say (not as I do)" "Bow to Glory" and "I'll part the Oceans" did nothing to dispell the growing rumours that Santana's sucess had led him to develop a "God complex." Believe what I Believe was released in 1985 to a cold reception. In 1989, unsold copies of the record were sold to China so they could be melted down and used in the construction of new roads. Santana, devastated by the reception his album got, changed his name and moved to Saudi Arabia, where he worked in the oil projections industry. Santana attempted a comeback in 2006, opening for local band "Chilli Badilly." When Chilly Badilly were exposed for lip-syncing, Santana's remaining shred of reputation was shattered. Santana now stocks shelves at the local "Buy'N-Go" store. Despite the famous name, Heron Santana is no relation to Carlos Santana. Far from it.
