Now that I think about it, my PE class last year was basically a fight club. We had something like 10 fights in the last two weeks. :?

Well. I spend ~50 hours sleeping per week, and ~40 at school/church. That leaves me 78 hours to do other stuff. Like Nadril, I'm on my computer nearly all the time (At least when I'm home...) but I most likely am not playing games. My Xfire profile tells me I spend 25 hours a week playing PC games, sounds right. As for Wii time, maybe an hour or two, not that much. About four hours a day in total, I guess. Though I have no idea where the rest of those hours went. I definitely don't spend that much time doing homework...

Thinking of number porn... When 1 procreates with 2,the resulting offspring is 3... Hmm, so you're in the mood for some maths? Add me, subtract your clothes, then divide your legs :twss: And hope you don't multiply.

Taiwan is still pretty damn awesome though. When you can build the tallest building in the world (It still is right? iIf the one in Dubai hasn't been completed yet...) in an earthquake zone, you definitely are not technologically behind. America's had its fair share of technological advances, Japan (And other east Asian countries) have had theirs. It's just that right now, [it appears that] the US is behind. Microsoft (And Apple...) are American-based, that counts for something. If 99% of Taiwan does have cell phone coverage, that's pretty amazing though - There's a pretty big mountain range down the middle, taking up over half of the island... As a whole country, yea, Taiwan has a huge advantage because of its size. (About the size of Maryland, with over four times as many people...) City-wise though, Taipei is the size of Chicago, and I'd say its in a lot better condition...(But that's partially because I'm extremely biased) I don't know though, I've yet to see TVs on taxis/public buses/subways yet in the US. Nor are there epic computer fairs and stores. I guess it's just the values that each country has - East Asians tend to focus on technology more, Americans...Don't. Edit: I probably should've mentioned (Since my post could've had the wrong implication), in general, I agree with you, Trapical.

Good movie. : Sorry dude,the butterfly effect,or chaos theory is a real theory.Thats where something as minor as a butterfly flapping its wings in NYC could cause a tornado in...that place with all those tornadoes... Pretty sure it was a butterfly in China can cause something in the air to change and eventually cause a tornado in midwestern USA, killing people. ~~Penguingeek3~~ :twss:

ShadowFax's Those are the posts right above his, silly. : (So that's Cyco above Shadow...) Andufus, subtleness was key to my joke (And it wasn't a great joke...), and explaining it will definitely mess it up.

I'm an arrogant, selfish, apathetic, impassive, anti-social son of a [bleep] who wants to be left alone. Or in other words - A teenager. Disorder | Rating Paranoid: Very High Schizoid: High Schizotypal: High Antisocial: High Borderline: Low Histrionic: Moderate Narcissistic: Very High Avoidant: Very High Dependent: Low Obsessive-Compulsive: High (I knew paranoid was going to be very high...I am the most paranoid person I know, or at least I tell myself that because I'm so narcissistic. Most of the others are also expected.)

Where the [bleep] is Taiwan on that graph, I'd think they'd be pretty high up... But yes, East Asia > the world when it comes to things like this.

Not if you're emo. -.- Reminds of me Ecclesiastes, what you said. "Life can be so bad that dying would be better." But then read the rest of the book, "enjoy life while you can." That's probably the simple answer. The reason to live is to enjoy it. :?

3 of mine do. :? Happy birthday, that's the fourth time I've said that today...

But what about your personality? You should go wherever you're most attracted to, which should be influenced by your personality... The only one I've been to is France (On vacation), it's pretty nice. I would prefer Greece over it any day though. I don't think I would ever want to go to Spain, it just doesn't seem like it'd fit me. Greece has history, culture, art, architecture, landscape...And you could go to Sparta. And yell "THIS IS SPARTA." And kick someone down a well. France is quite diverse. You have big cities, like Paris, which are filled with museums and famous structures. Then there are some smaller cities, I'd call Bordeaux one...Bordeaux is awesome, to be honest. France also has quite a few beach resorts/coastal towns, mainly along the south. And the countryside...

Oh, the whole discussion about balls is reminding of the time I was playing basketball with my friends. The ball was going out of bounds, and I was making a desperate attempt to keep it in. So ignoring everyone else, I dive at it, grabbing it and throwing it out of danger. It would've been, if my friend wasn't standing right there...Got him square in the nuts (DIRECT HIT), down he went... Worst I've done, I've made life for a few people hell. Or at least close to hell. I don't do it to random people (Aka bullying...), only people that piss me off enough. I'm now able to keep my temper controlled for a while, but you don't want to see me lose control...(I suppose I'm nicer online, if someone makes me mad I can count to ten and everything will be okay. :D )

Didn't they write a book about that....agh what's the name. I know that it had "game" in the title. The author was Ender I think :?: Ender's Game? That's kind of what I was talking about. If you haven't read Ender's Game, go read it now, but I'll put it in hide tags for ya. [hide=]Ender commands an army...Without knowing it. He thought he was playing a simulator, but was actually controlling the movements of the army (He might have been sending messages to the commanders, I forget). Anyway, I meant foot soldiers and the like, but spaceships work too...[/hide]

You know why Dedede is better than Game and Watch? Because Dedede is 3D, and GAW is only 2D. :lol: /cornyjoke I managed to WOP someone yesterday. Awesome. And then I did that thing (Don't know the name, I'm pretty sure there is one though...) where I hit my opponent into the side of Final Destination (But under it, kind of like a [bleep]e...Except not), that was pretty sweet too. I'll probably be on later, once I finish my homework...

...I'm still assuming that none of you have read Epic (Connor Kostick), but the game in that would be THE ultimate game. It's basically what's being done here...Literally making a virtual world where you're totally immersed in the gameplay. Or something. Who knows, maybe in a few hundred years, world wars will be fought virtually, through video "games". :? Anyway, I've decided that I really want this...Perhaps my birthday/Christmas next year, or if I somehow dig up enough money...

I'd also say it should depend on the person (...So the situation in general).

Reproduction? ...To keep the human race alive until someone great comes along and does something remarkable... I honestly don't know. (If I did, you would all be worshiping me...) But I think we all play a small part. The world is a huge machine, or body, however you want to look at it...And each of us is a small part. And we all play a role that has some impact (...No appendix remarks, pl0x), big or small. As Confucius said, "the man who moves a mountain begins by carrying small stones." To do something great (Moving a mountain...), it requires many people (...Carrying small stones), each playing a part. So my belief is that we all exist to have some impact on the world. Whether it'll be a notable impact (A important discovery, possibly?) or a small one (...Can't think of a good example...), it doesn't matter - We all have our part to play. Shakespeare time - "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts." (Two quotes that are in Civ4 in one post - Awesome)

From the cancer thread: I think I'll change that to "It's worse seeing a nearly dead person in pain and agony (and you know they're going to die) than it is seeing a dead person." There should be restrictions and requirements, so people don't abuse it, but it should be an option that's available.

This only looks really amazing. However, Lord of the Rings: Conquest will top it for me. I'll most likely get it eventually though.

Wait, are you guys taking AP Depression? I'm only in Honors...

37. Awesome. Time to go commit suicide.

'Gasm mask...? I actually might grab a long stick (...) on my way to school that day and walk around yelling "YOU CANNOT PASS" and random other Gandalf quotes. :-k

:shock: My friends refuse to believe me when I say x is top tier. (Not like I care much about tiers...) Except for Marth, because for some reason, we've all mained Marth at one point or another. :? When Brawl first came out, I knew that Dedede was going to be new character, but all my friends were like "NOoooooo he sucks he's soooo slow." Heh. One of the best characters now, no? Then Metaknight. I think it was before all these glitches were found, but he was still pretty good. My friends claimed it was impossible to kill with him. Okay then. But we bash Ike all the time. So it balances out. : FALCON PUNCH. 2500 posts.

Everything up to there sounds EXACTLY the same as me. Other than Deathskully. :? (Well, fine, I wasn't at my grandma's house in July 07, but I was in Taiwan...)

...You don't need any of those things. But. If you want some money, and if the Xbox games you got are crap, why not just sell those...?
