Smash Club.
If you sweetspot a fully charged Fsmash, you can kill at 17%, and if it's against someone really light (...Fox?) perhaps a bit lower. Of course, the chances of that happening in a real game are next to none. I'd actually say he has maybe the second or third best recovery, definitely top 5. Pit is way too easy to gimp, ROB beats him, Metaknight and Kirby are close, but Dedede has a better Up-B. (AND IT [bleep]ES!@) And yes, the way you win with only Bairs is you edgeguard your [wagon] off. You knock the other guy off, bair, jump, bair, jump, bair, jump, bair, jump...Up B, cancel, grab ledge. It's ridiculous. I'm amazed no one has really complained about DDD yet, the way people have whined about Snake and MK...

Dedede. :thumbup: His Bair is godly. Honestly, people can win a game with just that move. Some guy posted on a video of 3-stocking a level 9 like that. :? I'm getting good at using the Fsmash, though it's so slow. Not like I really need smashes, Utilt and Dtilt are great killers too...

Study help
I have a pretty good memory and I'm someone who learns by writing...So, once I take a note down, I'll remember it for a while. I doubt I would need to, but I still study nonetheless. I consider it just a good habit that will help one day. The easiest way I study is probably just by quizzing myself, or testing my memory. I'll memorize/outline a bunch of facts (Maybe write them down), and then try to copy them over without looking. Repeat until I know them really well. I'd say this could work well if you need to learn facts or vocab, so for like science or history. Math, well, it's by far my main subject and it just seems natural to me. And if you have a test where you have to write a long composition or something (For English or history, most likely), there's not too much you can do. I get distracted very easily, and people talking doesn't help a bit, so I hide up in a quiet corner of my house. And if I'm just gathering my thoughts or trying to recite facts in my mind, I might close my eyes, it's more relaxing and less distracting. As for music, nice, calming music could help. Not so calming that you'll fall asleep, but some good instrumental music works great for me.

2008 NFL Season
F...F...FADFDFD?????!? The Patriots are still good enough to make the playoffs. Hopefully. Super Bowl, maybe not, but they're still playoff caliber...Brady is not the entire team.

PETA wants Ben & Jerrys to use human breast milk
Hm. I say we go get some horses (Tigers? Cows?) and attack PETA HQ with cavalry. I mean, not like they'll kill the animals. No fighting back = Win! There's not much that I can say that hasn't been said yet...But yea, if we don't use those cows for milk, then what'll we do with them? Might as well kill them.

Brisingr!
Oh hey, we're reading Beowulf too! (YAY ROHAN) The Inheritance Cycle will never make my top books list. I will read Brisingr when I get time, I will read the fourth as well, but they will pale in comparison to the Lord of the Rings and Ranger's Apprentice. I can't remember a single thing from either Eragon or Eldest, and I only read them a year ago. I can't even remember the dragon's name, for goodness' sake. (Okay, it's like Saphira or something...) Really though, all I remember is that he travels around the world, trains, does some magic, and then there's a big battle and the good people win. Oh wait, that's basically every fantasy book. I mean, it's kind of hard to come up with a completely original story now. However, Paolini didn't bring anything new to the table. They're way too predictable, I predicted the whole brother thing like halfway through Eragon...And it wasn't revealed until the end of Eldest. The thing that annoys me the most is the close relationship to LotR. I'll admit, Tolkien wasn't the most original dude either. Like I mentioned earlier, he partially got the idea of Edoras/Meduseld/Rohan/Rohirrim from Beowulf, not to mention things like Mithril were used in previous fantasy texts. But seriously...Does "urgal" sound like "orc" or "uruk-hai" to anyone else? The exact same three major races...Men, elves and dwarves. DÛR. Barad-dûr. Farthen dûr. Isenstar? Isengard? Evenstar? Hmm...(I won't say that these are definitely copies, they could simply be coincidences. But I know for sure that LotR had some influence of Inheritance, it's way too obvious.)

Finnish school massacre
I believe he was trying to make a joke, a terrible joke at that. Well, I hope this trend of school violence stops soon.

School Mascots and School Colors
Tigers. So we're black and orange too. I don't think anything that strange around here, though there is the Harvard Crimson. I mean...How do you dress up as a Crimson? It's not even a noun...Is it? :?

Do You LOL IRL?
Uh no, I never ever laugh in real life. Life is serious stuff. If something is truly funny, I will laugh. If something is remotely funny, I may let out a "lawl", but will probably also chuckle/laugh. If something is supposed to be funny and isn't, I will do neither and punch the person in the face. I do use these internet abbreviations, but not seriously. To kid around. Seriously though, why so serious?

Collections thread!
Ahahaahaha pandas... A girl at my school, who hangs around with my friends and I sometimes, brought a stuffed panda to school yesterday for her Chinese class. After school ('Twas a half day \ ) we went to play tennis, she was there...With the panda. We ended up stealing it and running with it. Quite fun. Capture the panda. :lol: Anyway, I suppose I collect anything LotR related? I have three copies of every movie, all different...I think. I also have the OSTs for all three, I'm getting around to finding the Complete Recordings. I have all the video games for consoles I have, at least all the good ones. And of course, the books. I obviously have the Hobbit and the three main ones, but I also have the Silmarillion, the History of Lord of the Rings books, and a bunch of other Tolkien secondary texts. :twss: (Oh, I nearly forgot. Guess what today is? The day Frodo left Hobbiton! : )

Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning
Oh sweet, I've managed to get enough money to get me going for a while. If only my parents let me... I'll probably still wait until the Christmas season, I've got a bit too much on my plate right now. I'll be watching this thread though...

Country Music. #1 In Color - Jamey Johnson
Rascal Flatts counts, right? Love them, one of my favorite bands. And I got to see them live on July Fourth. : They have some of those whiny love songs, I guess, but they also have those cowboy ones. To be honest, I actually prefer the whiny love songs...:uhh: Here, What Hurts the Most and It's Not Supposed to Go Like That are my favorite tracks, favorite album is Still Feels Good by far. Now that I think about it, I prefer Country over a lot of things. I'd say it's up there as one of my favorite genres.

Smash Club.
Ginger isn't Crewbie anymore. :lol: (So that team is as unpurple as possible) Captain Falcon and Ganondorf make a deadly team by the way. I mean...Warlock Punch from one side, Falcon Punch from the other...WHERE TO RUN!?!? :?

Smash Club.
:twss: Any change from the norm would be nice. I mean, Final Destination 1v1, no items is nice if you want to know who's better...But it's not like we don't already know who's the best here. (Or do we?) That's not saying I like all items on Rumble Falls (Or whatever that ridiculous stage is called). And yea, there are some pretty fun minigames, I suppose. Too bad you can't have special brawl online.

TET and RVET Present ~ Tipit V Rv ~ Castle Wars Extravaganza
Oh wow. I quit RuneScape like a year ago, but my membership is still going. I think I might as well go to this, I've always loved CTF and I actually have somewhat decent (Not really) stats now. I'll most likely forget though. (Heh, if I go, I'll be so confused as I haven't played in so long)

When was the last time you cried?
Whenever I watch LotR, I cry a bit at certain scenes. I guess it's partially because they're sad, or because it's 3 AM and I've been sitting in front of my TV for 4 hours and about to die of exhaustion. The last time I watched them was the weekend of my birthday, RotK on August 24. It just happened that my mom's uncle died the day before my birthday, and she had to go to his funeral...Yeah. I think I've cried more recently, I've listened to some...Sad songs lately. I don't think it's been the songs that make me cry, but they remind me of something really sad (Which I don't want to mention, for reasons...) and... :cry: I go.
