The Helen Keller
Don't know the expression, only know the band by name, but judging on KnightLite's joke, I think they must be those types of Helen Keller jokes. ex. Did you see/hear Helen Keller's parents? Neither did she. etc.

Happy Holi !
He he, those crazy Hindus. Definitely a better religion. You never see Hindus blowing up buildings. They've got the religion = peace thing down. :roll: : And they have holiday (only in Nepal though I think) where free marijuana is given and smoked by everyone all day to honor Shiva :shock: :-k 8-) Maybe that's why they're so peaceful Hope you had fun \

Who makes you laugh?
All my friends are into Demitri Martin now, and I was into him 3 years ago. His first was good, but I noticed his second just took advantage of the things he did in the first that went over well (drawing and music). I just don't think he's that good. I'll still watch his show every now and then though... But now, there are so many comedy people and shows to keep track! And what fun is humor if we care so much? Even though that contradicts my first rant.

On a Mission
I heard navy food is AWESOME. If you're a good navy cook, they will get you out of jail if you kill the president. Anyways, as others mentioned, pirates are not going to as organised and powerful to destroy a military ship. Even if they somehow manage to get on board, there's no way they'll be able to take any trained soldiers out. Bring some pictures, if it's the least you can do. Good luck and don't worry!

Dream Theater - Black Clouds & Silver Linings
...Well I'm excited.

Eastern Lands: Coming soon?
[hide=Large Picture][/hide] It's not an axe she's holding. Judging by the way it's held, the speed-light-effect (...like, after you swing something) and the fact that she very cleanly cut off a tree limb with that kind of stance sells it, at least to me. I doubt it's a machete, because machetes would have to be thicker and one handed (that's in general, not just in Runescape)

Getting a Job at 14 [Lock Please]
Not if you don't get caught ;) BUt I think you have to be 17 or 18 (handling alcohol). Anyways, thanks for all the help everyone - it looks like I won't be able to get a job, as I just signed up for track and I'm gonna be busy essentially every day now. Maybe I'll get a job in the summer - and I'll still be 14. Thanks for the replies, but since this thread bears no use to me as of now for now, I am going to request it locked.

Eastern Lands: Coming soon?
Has anyone pointed out that she has chopsticks in her hair? Also, I doubt her weapon is an axe. The handle is too skinny and the moonlight reflects off of the blade-half. The man in the back isn't wearing Dharok's, the helm has a tail on top, not a [bleep]e. His armor looks more like, well, just basic. The man up front could be wearing updated dragon plate/skirt. Lastly, the woman's face looks more as if it's style of painting was more Asian influenced, but that could just be because she's smaller. My two cents.

Does regular life seem mind numbingly dull for you guys too?
Hmm, I understand why people always talk about your posts. It's always nice to see something very well thought out, rather than a news thread or something. This seems to me more of a "What's the meaning of life?" sort of thing. And I doubt anyone can come up with a really good point for this. I personally find history pretty dull, and wouldn't be so much more exciting if we had a history like, Runescape's, for instance? I think life is good, but if everything was really exciting, we would just take it all for granted, and never really appreciate anything worth appreciating.

Faces of Death
I just googled it and watched it... First hour was boring and cheesy. Last half hour was gruesome and the most disturbing thing I've ever seen :shock: . So I win? They killed animals in it too, including a sea turtle. They just gave them to natives to eat. I agree.
-
Faces of Death
I'm not gonna watch it, I'm still a wee one =P But it sounds like a snuff(<- right word?)film - a movie where they actually kill a person/animal for the film (just a myth, so far). Like Greek plays. Like Cannibal Holocaust, that's banned in a few countries (I was wiki'ing and got there, I haven't seen it, or the following) and some Japanese Guinea Pig (...) films. So it's a cult film, with over the top violent acts of the ways you can die... possibly a gorno. See the "What can't kill you?" thread. Much more depressing.

Watchmen
I watched the Watchmen. It was very good, but as people said, there wasn't much character development at all. It was also weird because I knew what was happening and what was going to happen. Not perfect, but not a crappy version for sure. I doubt it will be a gigantic hit, but it has enough reputation and fan service and It was also very over violenced. The book is violent, but this really took advantage of that to make it more exciting, I presume. Like, bones being broken through skin, and people graphically exploding. Also (and I'll hide it, someone was looking forward to it) [hide=DEATH (SPOILER)]They didn't slit tubby's throat. Instead, they cut his arms off.[/hide] Major con was I forgot to pee before, and didn't wanna leave. I felt like I was going to cry or pee myself by the end. So I have no idea if there's any credits footage. :( Good film, better if you've read the book, very long if you haven't. No Squid

Watchmen
Yer, Snyder was saying how WB wanted him to make it PG-13. But he pointed out that it truly is a graphic novel (<- Pun :P ). The Comedian's 'Nam scene is still there (the scar origin), Snyder mentioned in his bit about why it couldn't be PG-13.

Watchmen
Forgot about this thread. 2 more days \ I really wanna see it Friday (skip school maybz would be nais), but the problem is getting in. I don't wanna see it with my mom (sex/nudity) and my dad won't go. I'll probably go with my friend and his mom (cuz she already makes things sort weird in a funny way) - but I'll have to convince him to go on Friday. IGN has two reviews already, Aussie review says 2/5 (bad char development) and British review says 5/5. So it looks like it can go either way. :-k And btw, about the ending... [hide=*SPOILER* WATCHMEN FILM ENDING *SPOILER*]Instead of Ozy making a squid alien and sending it to New York, he makes a machine that can sort of mimic Dr. Manhattan. He uses that to destroy every major city on the planet at once. This is because: 1. People will be all "wtf?" (I admit, I had no idea what was going on the first time I read it). 2. 9/11 - New York will get pissed.[/hide]

Is there anything that can't kill you?-No supercannons!
I think I did a few pages ago, but people tend to avoid things I say unless they can make themselves sound smarter. Any state of matter could kill you. But could sound? Or would the vibrations eventually make your head explode. If explosion is the case, that also rules out waves.
-
Is there anything that can't kill you?-No supercannons!
I didn't read the last 3 pages because of supercannons? Anything with a super-cannon involved is deadly... OT: A computer virus can't kill youunless you apply supercannon. Does that count? PS. I just figured out if you do size one it creates blank space Ex.BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKSpace

Getting a Job at 14 [Lock Please]
Snowday (but I refuse to shovel for money btw) :thumbsup: Well, Lenticular Mentioned cutting lawns for 5 grand a month, which seems very reasonable to me... Maybe I'll look into that in the summer. To Riku: I don't get paid for good grades, and household chores are an expectancy from my parents. I'm not Canadian, sorry :P that reminds me of the grocery store- I've seen a seventh grader working there, maybe I'll look into it. Minimum wage > nothing ( and I sort of expect minimum no matter where I go ) I was thinking Borders, cuz it has a nice atmosphere, and it's full of generally smart people. But you have to be 18, my cousin says :( That's probably right, tbh :-k Would you rather have a willing to work 14 yr old, or a bitter 40 yr old...? Thanks for the help everyone :

Getting a Job at 14 [Lock Please]
Lock Please. I'm too busy to work now, maybe I'll ask this again in the summer. Thanks. I NEED MONEY. I referee, but I only get paid every 5 or 10 weeks, and I think I might just be a last resort to my assignor -.- I've been thinking of maybe applying to a McDonald's or Dunkin' Donuts, because (I think) they can hire at 14. But in this economy, and I've never had a job before... Any advice or tips? Any places that hire at 14?

Is there anything that can't kill you?-No supercannons!
Dreaming = a wet dream where your tilted and in a tight casket case and it moves to your head and kills you. Well that's not the dream its... the wet :?
-
Is there anything that can't kill you?-No supercannons!
Well, it's been a while since I've given another idea, and I've decided that: All solids can kill you (choking), All liquids can kill you (Imbalances in body) All Gasses Can kill you (Either Imbalances or being inserted into the brain) So I've decided that 2 things that can't kill you (unless already mentioned) are: Thought, and Dreams. Thought - unless Psychic powers are real - can't kill you. And Dreaming won't kill you (again, unless you're in a Freddy/Sci-Fi Movie) unless your sleepwalking, but that can occur without an actual vivid dream, and sleepwalking =/= dreaming, anyways.

Guitar Hero/Rock Band Discussion thread
What do I do to send in my guitar? Do I need any papers? Where do I send it to? Help would be appreciated, since a few of you have pointed out that you've done this...
