Listening to This playlist currently. Guy is pretty talented.

Man, I swear some of the guy's that lead pugs are either [developmentally delayed]ed or elitist, maybe both. Some guy was shouting out for a Naxx 10 group, and that they needed DPS. I whispered him (they armory) that I wanted to go. Now keep in mind I have 1700SP (unbuffed) , am Hit capped (with food) and have 18%+ crit. He said my SP sucked and pretty much just laughed away. When I asked what DPS he wants a person to be pulling in Naxx 10 he just told me to leave him the hell alone. Considering I can do 3.5k DPS in the first half of malygos 10 (thank god for double stack charges) and 3.2k dps in sarth 25 man, without a shaman, well... I don't think he knew what he was talking about. Just kind of annoys me because these people expect you to have the best gear, except if you had gear why in earth would you pug a naxx 10? Oh well, the guild I did malygos 10 the other day with offered me to join them in their Naxx 10 raid on Thursday. And my Death knight friend is nearing closer and closer to 80. I think he is just about to ding 79. Can't wait, it's been boring without arenas to keep me busy.

Levels of Colour
Kind of hard to give a suggestion when you've removed it.

I never like to single out any single genre, but the bands themselves suck.

Crytek purchases Free Radical!
Great news. I think we'd all like to just forget Haze, it was just a bad mistake for the company (even greats have dud games now and then). Crytek seems like a great fit for the guy's.

Norton 360...
Get rid of it. You can get a better anti virus for free (Avira) so ditch norton.

What can I say, we have good taste in music. Maudlin of the Well's Bath album. Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Modest Mouse...(the list goes on), are some of my favorite bands. Just because something is mainstream doesn't mean its not good music. I know, most mainstream music lacks lyrical and artistic value but not all. Slipknot and Marilyn Manson suck though.

8500GT is a very meh card. Should spend $30 more and get a 9600GS.

Your Fave Online Comic Strips
I'm not about to go dig through a ton of CAD archives, sorry Adrenal. I'm not sure what you're talking about Penny Arcade though, they don't reference anything from 4chan, and they certainly don't do obscure references. Most of the daily comics are pretty up to date with what is going on (their comic today was about that whole incident where a mother thought she heard "Islam is the light" from a DS game). I have to disagree with the humor as well, but that's all very subjective so no point trying to argue that. Their punchlines and delivery is right on though.

My next computer?
Eh, not a huge fan of the vaio's. Honestly I would try and go with ASUS, great brand and quality. Chaise, this may sound odd but try and keep an eye out for deals on laptops from best buy. Usually they're a waste of money (really marking up stuff like video cards) but when it comes to getting a laptop it's actually a really smart choice. The laptop I posted about earlier that I have I got for $1,000 at best buy, which would have cost me $1,500-$1,600 elsewhere. While they don't have deals on gaming laptops often, when they do it's usually a really nice one. :) Plus that way you can actually go to the store and see it.

Basketball coach wins 100-0 and is fired..
Yeah I don't get this either. Just passing around the ball makes it sound like you're just screwing around with the opposing team.

My internet hates me :(
Have you tried contacting your ISP at all to see if there is an issue?

Steam
Your video card doesn't even support the orange box. Probably should have read the minimum requirements before spending $50.

With a laptop cooler they don't run too bad actually. Playing WoW right now on my laptop, and am getting 62C GPU, 47C HD, 41C CPU.

Is there any way to back up Installed Programms (Games).
I have to ask, but why? Why do you reformat and reinstall your OS constantly? It doesn't make sense and seems like a horrible waste of time.

Yikes. You do anything yourself here?

Fullmetal alchemist ftw
Pretty much looks like the anime to me. Edward and his brother probably are the best drawn.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
I've had decent luck with RNG so far, some good rolls and loot. Of course luck with raids is a whole other story. Did 10 man Malygos today and, sadly, we just didn't have the DPS. I was putting out 3.5k DPS, the boomkin was putting out 3.2k or so but we had a rogue, warrior and paladin doing under 2k DPS (the warrior 1.1k [non tank], the rogue like 1.5k and paladin 1.4k) so we didn't have the dps to beat the enrage timer. Granted, that was the only problem. The druid did a great job of explaining the raid, and the prot tank did great too. I should say that Malygos is actually a very fun encounter, so much better than the tank and spank snooze fest that is Naxx. :P (yes yes I know it's not technically tank and spank, don't jump on me) I like critting for 33k too.

Honestly, I would get a laptop. You mentioned you are interested in light gaming so power won't be a big issue. However, even as a gamer speaking here, I find a laptop so much more convenient than a PC. Granted, you can ship it back and forth if you want to. However that slowly becomes expensive and, not only that, it becomes a real chore. Being able to just carry the laptop between places is a godsend, even if it is a "PC Replacement" laptop (like a 17"). So really, check out some of the laptops by ACER and the like. I actually use a Gateway FX model laptop currently. Got it on sale at best buy for $1,000, and the thing is a beast. 17" widescreen monitor 1920x1200 resolution, 9800M GTS 1GB, 4GB DDR3 memory, 2.2ghz Core2duo. Point is, laptops are getting to the point where they can run anything for a very reasonable price (I can run Crysis warhead on a mix of highs and custom settings @ 30-35fps) and would be a great fit for you. Building a PC will give you more bang for your buck, yes, but I just don't think it's worth the hassle. Take it from someone who took his PC back and forth with him during Christmas and Summer breaks from college/home to say that you don't want to deal with that kind of [cabbage]. And an iMac is kind of a waste of money all around honestly. Especially not for the idea of "light gaming" (in which if you wanted to you would have to pay another $100 for a windows based OS, which would kind of negate the entire point of buying a mac to begin with.

[TF2] It's MANN Vs. Machine!
I'm doing really well with sniper today. Beat my snipers point record (24 points) and my snipers kill record (like 15) and have just had some really great games. [hide=][/hide] :P Carrying the team IMO.

If I wanted to I could just buy them up and resell them. Not a [bleep] though, when my friend logs on that I CoD stuff to I'll tell him about it.

Holy [cabbage] man, Miners screwed themselves over on my server undercutting. Saronite ore stacks are currently going for 15g-18g a stack. Thankfully I have a guy I CoD all saronite ore stacks to for 25g/stack :)

Dream Pop/Shoegaze
Would Jesu be considered Dream Pop/Shoegaze at all? 96RZDup-yxE It's an incredible song, not sure if it would be classified under the genre or not. I'm going to keep an eye out on this thread though. :)
