What's your RL fighting style?
Never had a serious fight. Had a couple of incidents over the years, but then i've just thrown them into the ground and tell them off. Never punched or kicked anyone.

Buying a New Computer.
What's the psu? I couldn't see brand, specs or model name. That why I was a bit worried about it. Looking it the specs on there website its going to be 220W which is enough for a 4830, but doesn't leave to much wiggle room. But I like I said I'd wouldn't get anything with a 9100GS when possible. Looking over Dell's Outlet I found a nice deal (link) $609 i7 920 4gb ram 500gb hdd *cough*3450 *cough* (sucks, but I can find any reviews of the 9100GS to compare with) The extra 4gb of ram on the AMD Px4 build is more of a gimick as 99% of users won't use 4gb let alone 8gb. Yep, that card doesn't use much... Around 80-90w (stock clocks) in load. I have a 4670, 59w in load (stock clocks) and surprisingly good fps' on factory clocks too. You can push it quite a bit when overclocking. But i have no idea about the prices on that card now. Maybe he could contact Bestbuy about the psu. Your Dell deal is really great. 3450 is a better than 9100gs, but still nothing for gaming. And with a 4830 it would near 700$.

Manufactured pop stars
Bah, dancing. Have some beers and headbang (altho that feels weird now that my hair is 75cm shorter). And i guess it depends on who you are too. You for instance say you'd be leaving at a party with rock music, i'd be leaving at a party with pop music. Damn... I feel so totally lost at those places. Like a couple of weeks ago, i got dragged to some south-american club (i got a free pint so i said yes)... I probably have never felt so lost as i did there. But at the heavy metal pub, ah now that's my home.

Nadril's Favorite 30 albums.
Interesting, Nordland in front of; Blood Fire Death, Hammerheart and Twilight of the Gods. The Nordland albums are good, no doubt, i however think the EQ on the guitar should have been turned down a bit. A thing you might want to know, before his heart stopped working, he was going to start working on the next album in the next weeks. But, nature decided otherwise.

What would be playing?
Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture Nice little piece on 15min =)

Manufactured pop stars
I noticed this topic a couple of days when i watched a re-run of Top Gear (S12), and there was some dude who had won pop idol before. Clarkson asked him like "so you know Smoke On The Water?" .. "uhm no". I mean, for god sake... It's music legacy! How can you not know that song... So. We also have this pop idol crap in my country. The good thing is tho, that these "idols" seem to die out after a year or two. I admit, it's not my type of music, but i hear very easily if someone has a good voice or not. And most of them (even the finalists, atleast in my country) sound like crap. I have seen one program each season, just because it's fun to be a masochist and to sit in the sofa and judge peoples voices. Apart from the fact that i wouldn't listen to such music even if the person has a good voice, i find it to be everything music shouldn't be about. There's no soul, no passion, no love. Just manufactured for the masses + an entertainment program for the tv stations to bring in money. Now back to listen to Rush.

2011/12 Football Season
Seems nice, i'll check it out later. Tho i play Football Manager (gonna get FM2010 when it comes out). Think i (or someone else) will create a 09/10 season topic in a couple of weeks. Gunners' Nasri is out for 2-3 months btw. I would like to see them sign some English players in the future... What have they, like Walcott and a couple of reserves from England... I'm not even English, but it annoys the hell out me.

What are you listening to right now!?
The Kinks - I'm not like everybody else

American Propaganda Commerical Bashes Canadian Government
Not in my mind. Medical care costs enormous sums, which we can see in USA's budget e.g. Or, do as our crappy [bleep] socialdemocrats did for 50+ years... Have enormous taxes on everything. Be warned tho, i know americans think their fuel is expensive, but ours is about 12kr a liter (bit over a euro). Edit: Fastortoise: I broke my left leg when i was 12, when playing football (soccer) in school at around lunch hour and i didn't get a cast on until 19.00 in the evening. And as i said, we pay enormous taxes here, but you'll only get quick help if you've got an axe in your head.

What is your DREAM car?
I don't know if i've posted this earlier... It is my all time favorite car. It's just so... beautiful. I would much rather have it, than any Veyron, SSC Ultimate Aero, Koenigsegg or Mclaren F1... I know i will never own one if i don't win the lottery, but it love it. [hide=Ferrari 275 GTS][/hide]

Bugatti is from France, Volkswagen bought them a couple of year ago tho. I prefer my Sweden brand, Koenigsegg, to all those =)

Someone has access to my Internet!?
Take your dad with you and go over to him and ask why he is using it =) Much more fun to see his reaction than just reconfigure WPA.

The Poll Topic - Question 2
C. Personally i haven't witnessed anything like it IRL, but that's what i'd do. I'd probably kill it myself later on as they aren't big, i'd imagine it would be in real pain.
