  1. Say what you will about NASCAR, but last Sunday's race at Loudon, NH, was a major slugfest of sorts:

    - Kyle Busch accidentally spun Kasey Kahne to the wall. During the caution laps, Kahne ran his car across Busch's front end. Kahne was fined $10,000 and 25 points.

    - The highlight of the race was when Michael Waltrip sent Robby (not related to Jeff) Gordon hard into the wall. During the caution laps, Gordon threw his helmet at Waltrip's car. Then, during a live interview, he said 'poo' while venting his frustrations. Waltrip was also caught flipping Gordon on live TV through his on-board camera. Waltrip was fined $10,000 and 25 points. Gordon got penalized $35,000 and 50 points for his troubles.

    That race was hilarious. Topped with Tony Stewart's comments about how people said he used to be the bad guy and a red flag mostly to get them all to cool off. I just wish Kasey hadn't said in way "Dale Jarret did it at Bristol so I did it" when he tried to run over Busch in relatiation. So much for that 7 second delay Nascar claimed it would have for broadcasts last year, huh?

    Friend of mine was drawing "New Smurfs" for a laugh some many months back. Then the other day I saw his original "Gangsta Hefty" pic online complete with those subtitles. Don't know who did that but it too good pass up. It was that or my stupid Halo Kitty.

    Now what was that about Unicron's farts being deadly?

  3. Don't tell me you just started playing Final Fantasy with these new-fangled 3D PlayStation era Final Fantasies?

    Well you did have to fight him in FFVIII.

    It's also why we fought an evil Bahamut in FF9 because Kuja was evil. I guess the thrend continued in FFX when we also fought an evil Bahamut but that's one of those fangled FFs, Mike is referring to.

  4. Was billed on the 4th, no othwe word yet. No way to check on their website order status either. Rather ghetto if you ask me.

    Talked to them last week and talked to them this morning. They have just one employee (just one) sorting thru all the orders. They claim they just weren't prepared for the sheer volume of orders they got and they should have it all settled by late this week. I hope so cuz my credit card was charged on the 7th and I have yet to even get a confirmation email from them. The worst that can happen is some DVDs people ordered are out of stock and must be credited back. It's all very retarded but it is ADV afterall.

    Oh, yeah they admitted I wasn't the only one who had issues regarding their "email response".

  5. I got:

    YOU ARE: JsARCLIGHT!

    Some people know you, other people don't and the consensus is "who cares?" You either post to complain about things other people like or to defend stupid things you like that everyone else hates... You like cats a tad too much and eat too many salads for a man but you make up for it by owning more guns than a small third world nation. You step into the middle of fights and bore people to tears with your musings on human nature and life in attempts to get them to stop fighting but usually fail. In the end, you are just another face in the crowd.

    No, you just have Hyper ADD with newly acquired toys and DVDs resulting in quick burnout with them.

  6. And the latest in tasteless newscasting... CNN in sadvertizing a link where you can "Watch: Bodies bobbing in the water"

    Screenshot provided to prove I can't make this stuff up.

    326141[/snapback]

    Yeah, man, I saw that today and was hoping my eye sight had gone bad. WHy would one want to watch bodied floating in the water? Tasteless is an understatement.

  7. Like it or not you are/were a casual anime fan. :o

    I hope you can live with yourself...

    325918[/snapback]

    I can because I no longer watch anime that much as most if it sucks now. I also never dress up like anything, speak japanese, think japanese or do any of the other dorky things associated with "otaku" stuff. By your logic simply because I have watched a few episodes of Star Trek in my life that makes me a Trekkie. I know for a fact I've seen a lot of Dr. Who episodes so I guess that makes me a Whovian as well.

    The point of this thread / group is that we are people who occasionaly like something only to have a thing we occasionally like make us feel totally ashamed thanks to the other uber hard core nutso fans who ruin it for everyone. I'm very familiar with this feeling being a gun owner. Thanks to all the yahoos out there who shoot up places and kill people everyone on the street thinks just because I'm a gun owner that I'll shoot them where they stand and dance on their body.

    It's guilt by association. Against our wills we are associated with these dorks and tools that take everything too far. We do not want to be associated with these people and that is the gist.

    Amen, brotha. Amen.

  8. NO is a disaster zone, the problems with the looters and the resources avalible to manage it makes it a combat zone. The problem with the armed looters won't be stopped until the military intervenes and starts shooting back at the looters. But that is never going to happen. Many of the looters are African American. How will it look when a white National Guardsman shoots a black looter in the back while clutching a DVD player? Even if you had a gang of armed African Americans shooting at a bunch of elementary school children, once you starting shooting at African Americans, even justified, you know have a government sanctioned 'hate' crime on your hands. If you want a law enforcement perspective on the reality of shooting looters, thats it right there. So the reality is the National Guard will beef up the area, looters will stop and they will get away with what they have done. In the meantime civilians stuck there are on their own, just like in the OJ Simpson riots.

    Hate crime? Don't be a damned idiot. That would be self defense as nobody in his/her right mind would call that a "hate" crime with the chaos playing high definition on their screens. So If I popped a looter, would it suddenly be a "black on black crime" when I'm just looking to protect my own neck from the scum? Again, don't be a damned idiot.

  9. I'm not an anime fan. I'm an animation fan that treats them like I would any otehr piece of entertainment. I do howver HATE the stupid fans that will watch any piece of crap just because it's "anime". Like those bunch of idiots that run the so called anime club which supposedly only shows quality shows. Yet they won't watch the original GunBuster because it's "old" yet play the new crapfest.

    There ya go. Guess who has all of it and many old shows (and many more listed) in her vast VHS animated collection having been an animation major)

  11. Well poo... how come they are not in stores?

    319761[/snapback]

    There's some kind of messed up delay with shipping from wherever they are being manufactured. I spent a good hour hollering at the local Best Buy Bums on where the hell my set was on Tues and then on Wed. Looks like the release has been pushed back a week.

  12. and as a Mospeada fan... the Tlead(piloted by Ray) vs Corg(humanlike Inbit command unit).

    Silly Mospeeder fan (yeah, I'm makin' fun of someone by writing the name wrong), you have Rey from MOSPEADA fighting Corg from Robotech The New Generation. Go outside and hit yourself with a paddle a few times in front of your neighbors as punishment.

    Besides, you got my boy all wrong. Rey never fights Batra (RT's Corg), he fights some blonde Inbit and royally hoses the guy but the animation isn't all that wonderful for it. I LOVE the sounds of the huge shells of the Beta's gun nailing that sucker though.

    Which ironically is the scene in Kin's avatar. LOL
