[SIZE="1"]I know Josh was waiting for two posts before he posted the next Landmark, I've not had a chance to speak to him in a while though so perhaps that's changed.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I'm actually at a loss as to why people dislike Rose's Vizard mask so much, as far as I can see it fits his personality (or rather a Hollow version of Rose's personality) quite well. Admittedly it's not my favourite mask, that being a toss-up between Hachi's and Love's (I'm guessing Hachi's Hollow must be a relation of Dondochaka from the family resemblance) but overall I think it's pretty good. Lisa's mask on the other hand seems the worst for me, if only because there's nothing to it. Funnily enough I figured Kubo was going to keep us waiting ages to see each of the Vizard's masks but I guess he teased us enough with TBtP.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Allamorph'][FONT=Arial]I feel I must rant again about college professors insisting their students need the precise latest edition book for their class when said book costs upwards of ten times the cost of any [I]normal[/I] book or manual on the face of the planet.[/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]This. Although professors who demand you buy their own book which costs about twice as much as a more widely printed book on the exact same subject is equally irritating.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Found a Failblog pic that pretty much sums up my view on whiny vegetarians as per some of the comments on that PETA page. [CENTER][IMG]http://failblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/fail-owned-carnivore-win.jpg[/IMG][/SIZE][/CENTER]

[quote name='Ace'][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]A character gets a new power that was not implied beforehand to be obtainable or even exist. It happens just when they need it and in an incredibly forced manner, just to make sure the plot moves along, no matter how clunky and pointless it feels. In other words, the basic method that Masashi Kishimoto uses to keep his stories moving.[/FONT][/QUOTE] [quote name='Magus']You should really hate Kubo Tite then lol.[/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"] Agreed, but this is pretty much a standard trope in shounen manga and fiction in general, not saying it's good but just something that has to be dealt with when it crops up.

[quote name='Rachmaninoff']I'm sure you all saw this one coming. [URL="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31571590/ns/business-us_business/"][U]The ?King? is dead, long live his merchandise[/U][/URL][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]To be expected, at least some of this will go to providing for his children's future should all the legal wrangling be straightened out.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Well apparently Kubo has been giving us the run-around for about the last 12/14 chapters. Sneak-peek at this week's release reveals that [spoiler]the Top 3 are all fine as was expected, Wonderweiss is indeed the most powerful Espada given he 1-shots Ukitake, Aizen and co. leave their fire prison and the Vizards finally show up.[/spoiler] Now I'm just wondering why Kubo felt it necessary to drag all that crap out for so long, and how long it's going to take the next arc to reach conclusion.[/SIZE]

[quote name='chibi-master']What's [I]your[/I] problem?:confused: Personally, I think this thread could use some humor, what with the "OMG, he's dead!" feel to it...[/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]I think what Lunox meant was that it's a bit early for jokes that relate to his death Chibi.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Ace'][FONT="Comic Sans MS"]Better question: Why are you being paid around 1/3rd minimum wage to perform such an awesome job?[/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]Because I felt his enjoyment of the job compensated giving him a full salary.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]This one relates to pretty much every BFS-featuring anime/manga. "If you see someone carrying a gigantic sword, while you are entitled to be surprised by such a sight, do not be stupid enough to assume they wear such a weapon for decoration and cannot use it with extreme lethality."[/SIZE]

[quote name='Nathan'][FONT="Arial"]I don't have a problem with bailouts, or rather the principle. But I do find the lack of accountability a bit disheartening. I don't agree with the sentiment that it was a total waste and did no good at all. However, I do agree with the sentiment that the worst offenders, should have been strung up by their toes and left to dry, or whatever. People like that clearly haven't learned a thing. [/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]This. However I would substitute the word "toes" for something else in dealing with the worst offenders. Sadly however a lack of accountability when dealing with the banking sector seems to be a worldwide bane. [/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]I would honestly be surprised is people weren't offended in some capacity by Cohen's flicks, I mean that's basically his thing with movies. Lord knows Borat was awesome to see the reactions of people who didn't realise it was all a big joke. Regarding Obama and the rights of lesbian/gay Federal employees I agree with Sabrina, things like this take time. It's unreasonable to expect he could set everything up by himself in just the first few months of his term as President, especially given the economic crisis that's developed.[/SIZE]

[SIZE="1"]Guess VGCats Aeris is going to have an aneurysm when she hears about this, if the last strip was anything to go by.[/SIZE] [quote name='Indi'][FONT="Arial"][COLOR="Indigo"]Bottom line, I could care less if they include it. Won't affect my game playing at all.[/COLOR][/FONT][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]QFT.[/SIZE]

[quote name='Lunox'][font=trebuchet ms] I played a Twilight drinking game with some friends last night- good if you want to get drunk quick.[/font][/QUOTE] [SIZE="1"]I played the CSI Miami game a few months back with my girlfriend where you take a shot every time Horatio takes off his sunglasses or makes one of his one-liners. As you can image we were relatively drunk before the episode ended...and then we realised it was a double.[/SIZE] -
