  1. Aww, I wanted a turn. Meh, I'll guess super mario 64.
  2. I seem confident because everyone knows he's good. The reason that noone took him is because with the way the playoff races were, the teams not in the playoffs either already had good number ones (in the case of carolina/calgary), or have good prospects (in the case of edmonton, minny, and atlanta). In the case of gustavvson, it isn't a matter of keeping him to see if he pans out, it's getting rid of the pooch that screwed your team's playoff hopes two years in a row.
  3. Prefer to be sure? It's a sure fact that if gustavvson had a .500 record or better, then the leafs would've been in the playoffs both last season and this season. The leafs need a proven number one goaltender. Reimer's only played one season, so he's out. Gustavvson sucks, so he's out. Conklin/vokoun can be obtained in the off-season, as can a bunch of proven number ones.
  4. True, but many of those players tend to have at least decent first seasons. Gustavvson has had 2 back-to-back mediocre seasons. And with goalies being easy to get/cheap, it's usually better to get rid of a mediocre goalie for another rather than putting faith in the slim chance of him changing.
  5. There's a difference between gustavvson though and many of the others. In the case of the others, many of them only played their games during 1 season, and were let go before toronto really saw their potential (especially clemmenson). Gustavvson's been there for 2 seasons, which, although it may be small, is still enough time to showcase his abilities, or 'lack of'.
  6. Lol...yguy: justin pogge called, apparently he doesn't agree with what you just said.
  7. Made my way through the first bunch of snes/gb zelda games, now confused about whether I should wait until ocarina of time becomes available on the 3ds to beat that game.
  8. Naw, the leafs'll need another, decent goaltender if they ever hope of making the playoffs next year. If reimer gets injured, then gustavson will tank the team (provided he doesn't get traded during the post season).
  9. Lol, believe me, if you fall in love with me then zoe won't be the only thing trying to tear you a new cat-hole. /points to the fiance looming in the kitchen/.
  10. Send me a card, I've got 2 shin casts...
  11. In international waters, nothing's illegal. I guess that means that drinking/smoking there won't make you die... /sarcasm/
  12. Well, they did kinda give up. The 'giving up' just happened during the first half of the season...
  13. And either way, this is still just giving merit to my question of 'why do they make smoking legal at 18 and alcohol at 19?'
  14. Wits, you scare me...taking clips from your home documentaries and using them to explain goon's 'relationship'. Now if only you could do this to try and explain all the relationships in fg...
  15. If someone drinks a 6-pack of beer a week, I think that's more expensive than 1 person smoking a pack and a half a week. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of cars that alcoholics have crashed. Also, factoring in impaired driving tickets, alcoholism truly is worse monetarily. Smoking inevitably kills more, as iirc, someone dies every 3minutes from smoking-related health issues.
  16. In my opinion, the war on drugs is the most important, and most consistantly-faught war that the us has been involved in. Drugs are an interesting topic, as without bans, 'them kids would get addicted too quickly', but with bans, they just don't make much sense. Let's take the laws of vancouver as an example: you can officially start smoking/buying smokes at age 18, but have to wait until 19 to drink/buy alcohol. In the longrun, alcohol causes more monetary damage than smoking, but smoking kills more people than alcohol. Looking at it like this, one can assume that the government (the people who made these bans) care more about you losing money than they do of you dieing. What's weirder is that rather than perm-banning/perm-allowing these, they instead enter a 'grey-zone' by giving us age limits. I guess my opinion on this is summed up with this question: what does the government care more about, your life, your money, or your opinion?
  17. Could someone plz copy/paste the thing I wrote about how all addictions are linked to one's own problems?
  18. Goony, in your case, it is. Now please, take a seat, and put your right hand in the air. Hand-lationship advice: 101.
  19. I'm not trolling, I just find it interesting. Interesting is a word many dare not say, and nex, your typing is not gay. If only rhyming were much more easier, I do not like green eggs and ham...
  20. Amazing. It's like a huge forcefield was casted over fg that turns all green-named mods into emo-dr. Seuss writers.

    Today...

    Just got back from the hospital. Had to get another set of shots because apparently the first batch only 'slowed' the rabies rather than killed it off. Oh, and apparently my inlaws are 'angry' because the dog had to be put down due to the incident. Kinda feels good knowing that they care more about a 3yr old rabid pitbull rather than the soon-to-be husband of their daughter.
  22. There's always an easy way to solve drinking/drug problems though. I remember reading a certain psychology book that attributed every addiction to a problem in real life (ie: drinking for personal/self confidence problems, smoking for social problems). Chances are, if you find out the problem that lead the person to their addiction, you can then solve it by satisfying that problem (ie: if the person had an alcohol addiction stemming from a poor social life, getting their social life fixed would then theoretically kill the alcoholism).
  23. Honesty only really works 30-35% of the time though. With that 2nd trick working 25-30% of the time, I guess one could say 'when honesty fails, get her to turn you good'.
  24. Weird, tripsis. Mind you, there are certain types of 'game' that revolve around an a'hole turning into a good guy. From what I remember, the whole idea revolves around a guy acting like a complete a'hole to everyone, picking up a girl who likes that kind of guy, then slowly turning nice because 'she's turning him good'. Possibly the 2nd best type of 'pick-up/game' out there, with the best being honesty.
