Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
I laugh at you're pathetic spending. I've spent nearly 400$ on just my Lego collection. Which isn't alot for Legos. As for video games...I'd estimate atleast 500$ for my PS2 alone. RockBand is expensive. ... Anyone wanna buy some oldschool Lego Bionicles?

You're right. But Addy bars are already crashing. I expect the rest to fall by next week.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
He's either being friendly (and being bad at it) or he's just really creepy, as IamDan put it - seedy. I say take no action until you meet the guy for yourself. Just go with your girlfrien next time she's over there.

Gamestop/EBGames
Go to their website and look up the prices for the following games: Guitar Hero I&II combo disc set - used G and Guitar Hero II - used the combo game is actually less. LESS MONEY FOR THE SAME THING. Somebody is dumb. Not to mention the numorous broken games I buy there, including the time I had a Timesplitters I disc in a Timesplitters II case. But it still beats Wal Mart and Target by a mile. I think all the idiots have spawned due to this new "casual gamer" thing. They happen to mostly be [developmentally delayed]ed.

The Fastest XP Possible?
The effort is greatly appreciated, but instead of just fastest XP, could you include a section on most practical? I know for a fact making lvl 99 armor is not the most effective way to get to lvl 99. I'll start you off: Combat: Crandor island, Moss Giants, or for higher levels - Lesser Demons Mining: Crafting guild - mine silver constantly & drop. Or alternativley, constant coal mining in the mining guild. if insufficient levels - Iron in Al Kharid Smithing: For money: smelt steel bars. For exp only: mine all materials and smelt steel bars, smith them into best selling item available. Fishing: before 40: barbarian village, flyfishing 40-65: lobsters @ Crandor 65+: swordfish gloves @ Crandor Cooking: Cost effective: buy trout, cook and sell For fast Exp: use trout until you can no longer burn lobsters. Then use lobsters. Prayer: pshh. it's gonna be a painful road regardless. Loot dead bodies on PvP worlds. Crafting: pre-crafting guild: cow hides. but don't buy them. Sew many many hard leather bodies. once in crafting guild: mine clay, pick up jug, water, put clay in furnace, make bowl. Repeat. Firemaking: Willows. No matter what. Runecrafting: earth crafting gloves and many many essense. this skill is slow no matter how you do it. Woodcutting: Chopping willows in the forest between Rimmington and the west wall of nothing. Near where you mine bluright ore for the Kinght's Sword Quest. Hope I helped :)

The Grand Exchange: Stock inflation
So lately I've been playing Runescape a bit more frequently. Especially now that it's summer. And I've noticed something. Every now and then, the Grand Exchange changes the prices of items in trmendous proportions. I want to know why. Don't believe me? I'm a clay miner, and occasionally I merch it through the GE the way that a day-trader would do in real life. I'm used to seeing clay go for around 100gp. In this past week, the scale decided it should finially take that last viagra pill it found at the hotel it's been staying in. It has had a whopping 45% increase in the past 6 months. And only this week has it really started increasing (see pictures for visual representation). I would like to know how it's decided that items fluctuate so dramatically in Rnuescape (i understand how real stocks work, but not virtual ones). I would also like to know if this has ever happened before with any other items. Discuss.

Manufactured pop stars
You've just captured and articulated everything I hate about pop. Thank you. I feel like i just recieved a scroll from the heavens. When will the world wake up and recognize the falseness of their devilish idols?

Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
Wait, by Mr. Brightside do you mean the song by the Killers? Sorry man. Well, let's quote the song for a few seconds: "It started out with a kiss How did it end up like this? It was only a kiss It was only a kiss ... Now they're going to bed And my stomach is sick And it's all in my head But she's touching his chest now ... Jealousy Turning saints into the sea Turning through sick lullabies Joking on your alibis But it's just the price I pay Destiny is calling me Open up my eager eyes 'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside " Yes, I'd say he meant that. And, my sincerest condolenceses. I can't imagine that kind of agony.

Hair styles for the new school year?
Lord have mercy. I just got my mohawk for the summer. I think I'll keep it for the majority of the school year and slowly work my way into dreadlocks. I've always wanted mad long dreadlocks. Like KoRn's 'Head' did. In the mean time, I think I'll dye it bright green.

Boy Scouts...
But are those religious *cough*christian*cough* morals really for the best? Scouts never specify christian morals, just god and country. This. At the court of honor I spoke at, the ceremony itself was at a church, however one of the honorees was Jewish (actually he attends my synagogue) and he chose our Rabbi as his guest speaker. So while Boy Scouts does require a bit of religion, it doesn't specifify which. It was held at a presbyterian church for goodness sake. Not even a hardcore one. Other than a few crosses here and there, it felt more like a souped up community center. And I believe that religion stems even more morals and values (disputably good ones, but most are good). So, being a religious Eagle Scout would result in a very high moral standard person. Someone I would hold in high regard, as well as admiration.

what do you collect?
lol, just started up again myself. Almost shamelfully, but it still has it's charm. I also collect(ed) pokemon cards back in the day. I used to collect rocks and GI Joe figures...and a ton of stuff. Nowadays I barely have any expendable cash #-o You barely have any expendable cash for rocks? heh :) True, I could go back to collecting them, but honestly they just layed around my room collecting dirt and bugs. if I find an especially cool rock, I may pick it up. But other than that...

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Stop feeding the god damn troll. The more you hate it, the stronger it gets. Rules of the internet, people. Ouchy S's counter argument nailed it though. And I particularlly like Knotch's comment. That'd be awesome to marry your Halo buddy. That's like every gamer's fantasy.

Fix'd. Seriously. Stick with it.

Worst way to die
But wouldn't you be terrified since you'd know you were about to die? If you take a fall like that, knowing what was coming, you will most likely die of a heart attack on the way down. Your body would start panicking (I have no idea how to spell that). You'd be dead before you hit the ground. Potentially, you could have a heart attack, yes. But that wasn't my death of choice was it? :P The risk of heart attack has to do whether it was intentional or not. If it was an accident that I fell out of a plane, yes you'd probably die before hitting the ground. But say I went for a skydiving lesson and then decided not to open my parachute...I would have accepted death, and therefore my body wouldn't kill itself in shock. My other death of choice would be taking a bullet for someone I thought to be righteous. I can't think of anyone (if they were that rigtheous, why would someone want them dead?) so this seems less likely to happen. I definiatly would have stepped infront of MLK though. Him and Ghandi. And maybe Lincoln.

Worst way to die
Falling here as well. I remember watching a documentary called "The Falling Man" (or something) about a picture someone took of someone who had just jumped out of one of the Twin Towers. I'll try and find the image but it's one of the worst ways to go i can imagine. Still being alive and possibly concious during the fall, knowing that the ground is the only thing thats gonna stop you. No thanks. EDIT: Here's the wikipedia page about the picture and the story. Several newspapers had readers complaining that the picture was disturbing. link. Strangely enough, if I could choose my death, I'd choose to fall from an airplane, or something else very high up. I figure you get those last few seconds of fun (the rush from falling) before you go splat. The fall itself kinda looks fun, it's the landing that kills you. And my assumption is that the death would be so quick that it'd be near painless. But, I still get a bit sick when looking down heights. If I had to die that;d, be my choice, but I still enjoy living ;-)

Ball Over the Fence - How Would YOU Get it Back?
That helps, but you kinda missed the point of the thread at this point. This thread is now an MSPaint thread. [/sarcasm] I'm terribly sorry. Sarcasm is hard to detect through plain text. My apologies, it is rather difficult. I'd have participated in the MSpaint frenzy, but I'm too lazy to upload the pic after making it.

Ball Over the Fence - How Would YOU Get it Back?
1) walk up, pick it up and casually walk away. Calling the police for tresspassing could potentially ensue, but honestly having done nothing wrong, you could counter sue and it would truly be in his best interest to drop the charges. Hell you can even call him a sex offender for constantly watching you through his window. That'd be my choice. 2) Wait 'til it's like 3am when he'd definitley be asleep, go into his yeard, and quietly sneak away. 3) come up with some ridiculous scheme involving a fishing pole, some adhesive and a steady arm.

Transformers 3?
Most movies have been known to be in trilogies ;-) However, lately they've been bending that rule what with Terminator and X-men having #4's. So yeah, I'd expect a 3rd Transformers. and the amount of CGI used on Megan is astounding. They paid so much to make her look even hotter in the sequel.
