  • I hereby declare this thread to no longer have a unified topic. It's all yours, denizens!
  • See? That's you demonstrating obscure knowledge of our shared enemy. On that note, I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth.

  • It usually means "know everything you can about your enemy". You can know your enemy's name if you believe in yourself! The power to spell some crappy film director's name was within you all along!

  • After seeing Lady in the Water, I thought that it was impossible for a worse movie to be made, but I figured if anyone can do it, Shyamalan can. And he delivered. Also, his name's not hard to spell. Know your enemy! Of course, I'll still say "M. Night Shyammalammadingdong", because it's fun.

  • Safari, because it's actually good. By which I mean, it's got the best integration with the operating system by far, with disk image automounting, nice QuickTime plugin support (makes perfect sense), and the passthrough of podcast URLs to iTunes. Also, WebKit has some beautiful rendering capability, and its implementation…
  • The Happening is the worst film created by humans. I'll leave the door open for movies created by sloths or slime molds, but NOTHING HAPPENED IN THIS MOVIE. Also, not much, yo.

  • I might suggest that your mom is poor coding, but since what you say is factually accurate, I'll let it slide. "alt" and "title" render the same in a browser anyway, so I just mixed the two up. Also, he used both title and alt, though with two different text strings (he's using alt for the comic's title, IRONY LOL), so…

  • That sign was just cruel. Also cruel: Elliott had a robots.txt file preventing the Internet Archive's crawlers from indexing his site, so I can't put up snippets from the comic as pertinent replies.
  • You might have better luck on EA's support pages or discussion boards, it's possible other people have experienced similar issues. Unfortunately, none of us are Spore Creature Creator experts (expect Jeff, who totally did win with that Sorcerer's Apprentice broomstick). No Internet at my house until at least Saturday, so…
  • Don't get me wrong, I don't give a crap about foot binding, I just didn't want to talk about circumcision at the time.

  • I got to play with a demo version at MacWorld. Seems a little weird to charge money for this software; does this $10 go toward the eventual cost of the game? Spore looks cool, but I'm not quite obsessive enough to give them hard-earned cash for their little tech demo. ^__^ Maybe I'll try out the freebie version later…
  • Isn't it? ISN'T IT?!? :hulk:
  • You're still making more money than I. And you have, well, any benefits at all, which has got me beat. Plus I don't drink coffee, so the break count means little to me. This is sounding like a better and better career move.

  • Yeah, everything you said sounded like a pretty sweet deal.
  • Hell yeah!

  • Jeff, I thought you would know better. Slander is spoken. The word you're looking for is "libel."

  • Al Franken's a smart guy, I say vote for him. I would have voted for Colbert had it been an option to me, so bear that in mind. But Franken really does know his shit.

  • Apparently the overwhelming consensus for advice is "don't listen to Mario." I still say you can go at least through the first semester or two without knowing your major, since most of the general education crap is the same for any major; get those classes out of the way. I held off on doing much general ed at the…

  • They're equally foreign to me. Besides, his avatar's in space, so the Wisconsin/China argument is rather moot. He can be in space and still be a cheesehead.
