It's often not just a phase, you just grow up and realise the answer to the question 'what is the reason I'm here?' is ridiculously simple: we're here to do whatever we want and we have to keep in mind that we don't want to do stuff to others that we don't want them to do to us. Vice versa: most of what we like, others like too, so try to do that in your life. Do what you like that pleases your environment. It'll make you a lot happier as well. The only thing that matter in the end is happiness, not money or possessions, though they do add a slight surplus to our lives. Just make sure you control your life and let nothing control you. Oh, and I'm positive that what you're going through is no where near depression. It's part of growing up for everyone with an IQ over 80 ;)

I doubt it. (and I think it's a good thing forum game posts don't count, what a bunch of spam :P) -786.3

What is your favourite sport(s)? Definitely climbing and close second is a ball sport, but I can't choose between football and tennis. Why do you like this sport(s)? climbing: there is almost nothing better than the thrill of getting higher, literally then, combined with the outdoor freedom and the sense of danger lurking. football: because I'm a pretty technical player (I'm not a heavy, strong player) I love dribbling and free kicks. But above that I love the teamspirit and the general atmosphere. tennis: what's better than hitting a perfect volley or an ace, a sweet slice or a beautiful passing? In general I love getting exhausted, taking a shower and feel reborn. That's what attracts me in sports. How good are you? Have you ever won any competitions? I'm a pretty decent climber/alpinist, but I'm not that awesome in tennis or football, just average. Who do you play with and where? Friends of course, who else? Where? Football in the garden of the student home I'm living in, tennis at the tennis courts of our university and climbing in the Ardennes, the Alps or the Pyrenees.

Do you have a last.fm account Lateralus? I`m pretty curious to see what your list would look like.

Lateralus from Tool. As Daan stated in his top 10; one of the best songs ever.

Bors is the one that slaughtered hundreds of soldiers on the bridge of a castle of some evil landlord, right?

The killer rabbit will completely own them all with its big nasty teeth.

Lol, that was semi-lame. #-o None of the original cards are in the last hand. :-$

That's pretty wicked; the only thing I can do is the casual throwing 3 juggling balls around and 2 in each hand at the same time. Even that took me several evenings to do. My party tricks involve cards; I like tricks with disappearing cards, switching cards, guessing what card someone picked etc. Tricks like these ones are easy and always stun people the first time: http://www.ecardtricks.com/mr4.htm This one I mastered; but it's very hard to do: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiHVNIay ... ed&search= This one I tried a couple of times; but once again, you have to be extremely fast: try seeing it in slow-mo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXcJsI1D ... ed&search= Etcetera etcetera. It's always satisfying when a trick like that works, the magic behind them is often that cards are often folded so that they can jump into position. It easily goes wrong.

Suddenly this topic is a lot less interesting :P But thanks for cleaning it Tallest :wink:

These ones are kinda funny as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tin6NJqQQsM

Great! Encourages me to make some time for it.

As soon as it's here, I'll go and see it. So many good actors, such a great director, a nice concept. This has to be a great movie.

Because tip.it has a thing about playing Kim Jong Il and censoring anything not coming straight out of Happy-Fairy-Land on a rainbow coloured magic carpet. Been that way since day 1. *Shrug* With a forum this big, rules have to be made and a line has to be drawn. If you'd be posting on another smaller forum as well, you would see that there aren't as many restrictions. I don't mind some cussing and heavy arguing, but some do and are offended by it so the staff has to take action. None of my posts ever got deleted, or at least I think so, because I try to be subtle when arguing. Subtlety is a great gift and it's something you can easily develop when you're slightly restricted :) Take a look on the darkwebz forum; if you'd copy-paste a topic here; half the words would be a * and the larger part of the topics would get locked. But that doesn't mean it's a better forum.

Heh, somehow I completely agree. This topic makes you look like a 13 year old kid desperately anxious for some attention Landon :P *What's it about? *What made it better than other movies? *What did you expect from it? *What makes it so good? Is it a good story/original/exciting/well filmed?

Ronaldinho, Henry and of course Roger Federer. All three of them great in their sport and all three fairly modest and very sympathetic.

Haha, this is more like it! Now this is what I call a contest. ---

Why do people ignore my posts?

You're going to Ghent all the way from Holland Daan? :P I wish I could, but I have other duties :(

I mentioned both already :P

So, can we blame their crap music on the studio? You think Kasabian and the Kaisers are crappy Bubs? That'd disappoint me, I like em a lot. And I recently bought inside in/inside out for a friend of mine who likes the Kooks because of their great concert @ rock Werchter this year.

Even I somehow think there's an ocean of difference between punkrock fans and you: I have to say Flogging Molly and the Dropkick Murphys (and some other good bands like the Real McKenzies, Anti-Flag, the Mad Caddies, Bad Religion, the Clash, the Pogues) are good Irish-alike bands. The genre is a mixture between punkrock and folk with traditional instruments like the bagpipes, the accordeon and flutes. They don't sing in Irish though, just English. If you want true irish music, I'd advice Enya, Sinead O'Connor and the Dubliners. If you would have thought of using google or wikipedia, you'd stumble on this list that contains all famous (and there's quite a lot of them) Irish singers/bands.

Haha :D I really wish I could, but unfortunately, my Aoe version is illegal and I can only play it against people with the same version. And apparently (Apinagez and me tested it) it only works in Belgium. I sent Api my version, which took bloody long, but we couldn't play :( So unless you know of a way to get the real aoe version for less than 5ÃÆââââ¬Ã¡Ãâì (at most ;)) I can't show you how a pro does it ;) It's based on what novel? If it's based on a late European or American novel, then I can't blame them for anything. I thought it was based on historical 'facts'. And I must say I loathe your taste in films if you like that aweful superficial trailer. But I still think you're awesome ;)

How would it be a bad movie if it has realistic fighting scenes, realistic romances and not that divine crap? The trailer makes it seem like a myth, like Troy was, full of heroes that were sons of Zeus or Ares. But not a single Trojan would ever dare to claim their mortal bodies were part of their supreme God Ares, which they worshipped above all others. I find it sad that Greek stories always have to be spectacular, bloody and sexy. Especially historical facts. Stories like Troy or the Oddyseia can be spectacular, because that's what they were intended to be according to Homeros, but history, like the battle of Thermopylae, shouldn't be filmed like that. If I would direct that movie, I'd make a movie about what the Trojan soldiers think, if they were silently afraid to die, if they really were fearless or if they collapsed when they saw their friends die in battle. And about the misery of the Persian army, the (good) emperor Xerxes who lead a horrible campaign. I would not, however, make a movie with blood, sex and gore as if it were the Colloseum. Movies like Gladiator are made for that, because that's the intention of a Gladiator, to entertain the crowd with blood. It's not the intention of a soldier to entertain, he wants to survive and serve his country. But it seems that Leonidas, the famous king of sparta, who was an old general, not a strong youngman as seen in the trailer, is a tirannic barbarian. BS like that proves the director is another traditional Hollywood fool. Movies like these go straight into the thrashcan if it were up to me.
