This seemed like the place to say that, because it was really high. People need to start taking away my phone when I am drunk.

Sending people drunken picture messages, huh?

Yeah, security is pretty much out the window if you have physical access to the machine. This is true of just about any OS.

in north america sony is the only way to go in terms of cellular. in europe it's different. I've had a few people tell me that Motorola phones tend to be the tops in call quality and reliability. I actually don't hear a lot about Sony phones, although I seriously considered switching providers to g...

I can easily use a controller, or a mouse and keyboard, so I don't see the whole debate. I think people who are used to mouse and keyboard just hate using controllers. I'm fairly resistant to change, so a lot of it has to do with that. I can usually "get by" with using controllers for fir...

Portal is great. I've played through the main portion twice now (once with commentary), and I just finished the advanced bonus levels last night (the *&@#ing turret ones are hard!!) I still have the other bonus maps to complete. I haven't touched Team Fortress 2 since I played it in beta for pre...

I still need to finish the Civil War series...

You guys seem to be getting better at visual effects, though this might be a bit much to ask. But just think of all the cool stuff you could do with a Portal-based short. Sooo many possibilities!

I have the song stuck in my head. It's so awesome. I want to share it with everybody, but they wouldn't truly enjoy without having played through the game. I'm going to play the bonus levels tonight, then maybe play through again with commentary on. Then eventually I might play Episode 2 :p ".....

Oh, I see that. I stand corrected. My apologies.

I think you misunderstand. He's giving away Half-Life 2 and Episode 1, which come with Orange Box, not the Orange Box itself.

I saw the DVD at Best Buy the other day and I laughed (and cried on the inside).

It's going the way of Lost. At this rate, it will be completely unwatchable by the third season. I don't understand why you say that... they're introducing questions, but unlike Lost, Heroes will actually answer them down the road. They're usually slow getting started. That said, I find the Maya an...

I wasn't talking about the game, I was talking about a 4th movie, based on the ending of the 3rd.

No, I don't think they'll make a 4th movie. It was just a bad joke.

I went to see it with my girlfriend. We had one free ticket from purchasing the Resident Evil/Resident Evil: Apocalypse double feature DVD. It was kind of 'meh'. I remember at one point thinking "they could probably make a video game out of this," and then laughing silently to myself. Of c...

As for the premier, I do get the feeling that Hiro will become Kensei. We still haven't seen Hiro vs the Dinosaur yet (have we?), so it stands to reason that he will still get the sword and has some more trials ahead of him. Actually we did, it was when he stole the fake sword he walked into anothe...

I'm really annoyed by them dropping the Black Box and essentially forcing me to re-buy Half-Life 2 and Episode 1 (to buy Episode 2, Portal, and TF2 separately would be an extra $30 US), but in the end it's still a good value for those three games. I just hate the thought of re-buying something I alr...

Do you guys read the graphic novels? They kept updating them while the series was on break, so I had about 20 to read through. There's a bit of explanation of some things in there... and the "Betty" series totally caught me by surprise! As for the premier, I do get the feeling that Hiro wi...

I don't have LRR bookmarked, but they're consistently in my history, so all I have to do is type the letter "L" and press the down arrow. I only bookmark sites I think I'll forget about later. And RSS feeds, so I can open them all at once.

Wow, I kind of forgot that I posted this, but thanks for all the input. The biggest problem I have right now is that my blood sugar is way too high and I'm not doing enough to keep it down. Believe me, I'm not trying to cut all carbs... if anything, my diet is probably a bit too carb-heavy as it is....

I've been having this problem lately where I feel like I'm hungry pretty well non-stop. It's complicated by the fact that I'm diabetic, and most snacks I can think of are pretty bad for me (lots of sugar). Anybody have any suggestions for some good, filling, low-carb snacks? I tried beef jerkey, but...

Hey guys! Also, there is this great show called Monty Python! Sometimes they don't finish sketches and you get to see tits sometimes!!!!11! Corax, we know what Fawlty Towers is. I am actually unfamiliar with Fawlty Towers, but then, I'm not a huge fan of British comedy. I don't really know why. Per...

Thats me at the con, first row, first on the left.

Awesome costume! Were you, umm, cold?

It sounds like you had a great time... wish I could have been there.

So when I go traveling overseas, which part of Canada should I claim to be from? :) I've been to Canada twice now, and it may have just been the places I was visiting, but I did notice that overall everybody seemed to be very polite and everything was clean. Seriously, even the people at the Windsor...

I feel dirty now

Why would you want to watch a Leroy Jenkins remix anyway?

I feel your pain. While I, personally, don't really care about the spoilers (fake or otherwise), I'm doing the best I can to censor the Internet for my girlfriend who is anxiously awaiting her new book.
