Morbo you punk! you were supposed to wait for me to beat you! now I am gonna crush you out of frustration.

[quote name='Lawliet' timestamp='1310267248' post='708316'] Well I did beat you so if he beats me I think he'll go undefeated :) [/quote] You may have a good team, but I am not sure if you could beat me again, let alone a team that has resistance to your main type (a much bigger deal than having a super effective type like Whites in my opinion) At least I can use most of my STAB moves without worry. I certainly don't wanna be counted out yet. Now if you can manage to beat him, I would dare to say that you will go undefeated... since he has such a great advantage over you.

Great way to resurrect the thread... an 11 minute song! (good thing I am here to save the day, with my awesome powers of not having a life.) Anyways.... I am not the biggest fan of Porcupine Tree... but these four songs did make me like them a bit more. I would have to rate it a [b]7/10. [/b]The long intro was kinda cool... and about 7 minutes into the song it actually sounded like something I normally listen to and like a lot. THe length of the song didn't bug me at all, but I can't say that I was too excited at any point in the song. The Vocals weren't bad, but I didn't particularly like the voice of the singer(s). The instrumentals really were the best part of this song. they really kept it flowing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP05DB0dmho&NR=1 This is a song from the band Meg and Dia, where Dia Frampton sings with Tom Higgenson from The Plain White T's.

1 and 3 are okay... but if you don't imply that you are a serial killer they may never figure it out. Maybe if you just drop a few subtle hits like leaving a bloody knife or perhaps a a few severed human appendages in your purse.

[quote name='Morbo' timestamp='1310208973' post='708306'] Whey! Only 18 hours (est) until round 6 is announced! CaNz or Lawliet you better prepare for some PAIN >:D [/quote] I hope you play Lawleit first... if you win then I can have a dramatic victory in the final round. Either way, this next round will be against an opponent I have wanted to battle since the start!

I had a lot of anger that was built up from loosing money in Vegas... I am sorry. I was also lucky on top of that... which is the complete opposite of of what I have been in Vegas. (honestly as much as I like this tournament, I would rather switch the two)

[quote name='Grouchy Cat' timestamp='1310028319' post='708283'] Playin' it safe, huh CaNz? :p [/quote] Well, I with the amount of money I lost in poker, I need to! I just finished a tournament in 10th (right before the final table) due to my pocket aces being flushed out by pocket 7s.... I even flopped an ace. Basically I am doing really bad, but I am having fun with my family.

Mhmm... Guess what? I won 61 cents in the slot machines today!!1 My secret is, I put in a dollar in the cent slots then as soon as I got higher than a dollar I quit.

I finally got internet for my room in Las Vegas. I am about 200$ in the hole so far so I doubt I will be on much (I gotta run from the Mob) I am hoping I win the tournament I am entering... but I doubt it. I really enjoy playing with my family though... so I guess it is all worth it.

I am not exactly sure how this tournament is scored, but I think at the end if there is a tie, it will go to whoever had the biggest blowouts in there victories. ( I think Morbo will probably have all of us beat just with those first few rounds) so really you better hope he either loses twice before you fight him, or you will need to win. Of course this is all speculation, I just figured there was a reason for keeping track of the remaining pokemon.

I lived in the back alley of San Francisco, so I have been mugged, stolen from, and jumped. I don't have the same experiences here in southern California, though my roommate was mugged just a block away from where we live. So long as you don't die, these things give you street smarts. I have never had any of these things happen to me twice, mostly because by being aware you can intimidate people, or even confront them. I don't know for sure, but maybe the reason they didn't mug you James was because you could see that they were being suspicious. I have had a few instances where I have avoided potential threats around this area. Back when I was in highschool, I didn't drive and my guardians sure weren't gonna pick me up, so I walked to and from school. Eventually I made freinds that also walked home, but before that I was walking a mile and a half everyday alone. One incident I remember was a group of four Mexican guys walking ahead of me kept turning there head around to look at me, and then talking to eachother in Spanish. I picked up on gringo so I figured they were talking about me. I just simply walked really really ridiculously slow. They slowed down a little at first, but then just started walking normally again. On a much scarier incident, me and my two Asian anime/video game club friends and I were petitioned for money by a group of around nine guys, most wearing the same black sweatshirts. (a gang color of the Center Street Locos) They asked for a dollar, but I know that is a tactic for seeing if people have any real money on them. On that occasion I just lied and said I didn't have any money, neither did any of my friends. I put on quite the performance, even when they threatened to check me... but I guess I am a convincing liar. In that situation I knew that if I did pull out my wallet it would have been gone though... so I really didn't have much of a choice.

I am not sure why people have such a big problem with generalizing. It is smart not to do it often, but certain things like teen pregnancies having negative effects on ones appearance is probably correct most of the time. People treat generalizing like an error when really it is the recognition of a pattern. So long as the person doesn't judge some based only on the actions of others I don't see what the big deal is. I am always maddened when I get paired up with kids playing online games. I don't care if they suck at the game (which they usually do) and I don't care how annoying their voices can me ( I have heard enough squeaky, screechy kids to last a lifetime) but what really bothers me is how almost all of them are trash talkers. It doesn't even matter if they are winning or not, as soon as they get a singe friggen point they have to show unsportsmanlike conduct. I know it is a maturity thing, (I wish they would wait until they are old enough to buy the game before they play it with me) but I was never like that as a kid... so I don't have a clue where it comes from.

I enjoy my newest background so I figure I will share.[attachment=15170:Deskk.jpg]
