It was when I still had an iPhone a few months ago.

Thanks.

[quote name='BigSpoonyBard']Agreed. You're like a classier version of LP now, rabbit :lol:[/QUOTE]

:(

I actually actively enjoy the things I say I do, though.

And I stopped spiking my hair in the 8th grade.
 
anyone in here interested in selling me an xbox 360? I could use one for the next few months. Give me a good price on one and PM me a target price. Games would be a plus too since I don't have a local connect or anything anymore.
 
[quote name='Temporaryscars']So, one day I noticed that my club enacted some new rules. The club officers claimed it was to curtail noise since neighbors were complaining. Basically, anyone with a rifle that used a magazine that fired more than ten shots would be forced to shoot at the "upper range" and you could only have two people shooting at once, you could only shoot a few rounds per minute and you'd have to wait a certain amount of time in-between rounds of shooting.

Now, most people who own guns own modern date, magazine fed rifles, be they AK-47s, ARs, etc. Yet, anyone who shoots a gun such as that is forced to share four slots. Now, for anyone that has never been to a range, it's not uncommon for one shooting to take up two slots (one to lay his guns and another for bench shooting). So, it's completely ridiculous to alienate a such a popular form of shooting to just four benches when the entire club has around 20.

So anyway, this pissed off a lot of people, and we wen't the next meeting to complain that it wasn't right. They tried to claim that it was a noise issue and that neighbors were complaining (which was absolute bullshit), then they tried to say it was a safety issue and that somebody said rounds were leaving the range (again, bullshit). It turns out that one night, while the officers were having their little poker game/social club, a couple of guys were mag-dumping (meaning, firing really fast) and the loud noises were annoying the old timers playing poker.

On top of that, the officers clearly stated that guns such as those where only made for killing people, which is true, that is why they were created, but couldn't you say that about any gun?

Anyway, they agreed to hold a committee on the issue after much begging on our part. We just wanted to compromise. We were willing to abide by the firing restrictions if, in return, they let us use the entire range. A reasonable compromise.

Well, I went to the first meeting, but base on how much they dismissed our grievances, I decided it just wasn't worth my time and I began the search for a new club.

At this point, all I know is what has been told to me by people that attended. I guess at the committee, they had everyone sign a sign-in sheet so they could "have a record of who attended." I was told that it seemed like a successful meeting and that the old dinosaurs were willing to work with them to find a soultion that would make everyone happy.

Fast forward to the next meeting where the final vote would take place. It was a massacre. The officers got in touch with every fudd, black power dolt and hunting retard and told them that "kids with machine guns were trying to take over the club." That night, they read off the sign-in list and voted out any member who had a problem with the new rules. Not only that, but relatives of those who were also members who had nothing to do with the fight.

So, that night, 19 people got the boot. They wouldn't say why, they just did it. Some were police officers, some were war vets who just returned home, they were all given the boot without any reason why.

Now, how they got my name, I'm not sure. It looks like they may be kicking out anyone who joined in the last year and giving them refunds.

So yeah, I guess that's it. I thought I was a member of a shooting club, but it turned out to be a social club held at a library without books.

See? Not that exciting. I did all that work for a bland story.[/QUOTE]

Not sure about Twitter, Facebook or icanhascheeseburger...as I do not have accounts on those. But if it's taken...:bomb::bomb::bomb:[/QUOTE]
Annoying! I only signed up for twitter for the cag halo contest... :roll: (rolling eyes at me, not at the contest). Icanhascheezburger I got my name back. =)

[quote name='Wolfkin']been there. Ive been using wolfkin for years but already taken on PSN. ramdomwolf was supposed to be a filler until I decided what to do and instead it's become my 2nd identity. it's almost never taken but i still prefer wolfkin. annoyingly enough when I settled for ramdomwolf on wikipedia some dude named randomwolf who by my check was virtually dead the week before became active and they banned my name because 'it was too similar' that was the last day i edited wikipedia.[/QUOTE]Oh gosh, that would totally irritate me.

My poor brother, when he was setting up either xbl or his psn name... every obscure name that he uses as characters in our games, every stinking one would come up as taken! He finally settled on Angel Fox Nowe with variants on spacing, caps and/or hyphens. (he liked Nowe from Drakengard, he likes foxes and he hopes for an angel (gf) in his life one day).

Meanwhile my friend Chuck is able to pick Cyric311 (he likes the band 311) on just about everything. I'd think that was faaaaaar more likely to be taken, than my brothers very obscure names... :shrug:

Neat. The grocery store in Zombieland is a few miles from my house (at least the location, I'm sure they did the interior on a set). I like to drive past it now and again and hum dueling bangoes as I drive by.

I always feel like I need a shower after I eat at Long John's. Love the food... but it gives me that fresh-out-of-a-tar pit feel. Definitely not good if you have a long afternoon at work.

But the chicken-fish/fish-chicken is the fuck!

Wasn't she perfect? I so wanted to look just like her. I would run around the house in my Wonder Woman Underoos and some twine Dad cut for me to use as a lasso. :bouncy:


Wheeeeee!!!!! Juuuuuuuuummmmmmppp! Twirl around! :bouncy::bouncy::bouncy:

Our closest one is about 45 minutes away. Only place nearby too to get fast-food fried fish. (minus one mall). Kinda sucks.
 
*Pictures Gwen in a Wonder Woman outfit* :drool:

New Rifftrax next week and a Gypsy figurine in the next MST3k set :whee:

I wonder if they'll stop there or if they'll make a Cambot/Joe/Mike figure.
 
I'm in Paris and tired as all hell. I hate the fact that I can't sleep on an airplane. Tomorrow and the weekend will be spent getting acclimated. Monday I'll start at the archives.
 
Linda Carter was gross.

Gwen is infinitely better looking .

Edit:
Chika and I just played through LEGO:HP and she liked it... she enjoyed the loot/collecting/puzzle solving in coop, but was happy there wasn't a lot of 3D platforming or combat (she doesn't like that there's a lot more combat in LEGO:SW than there was in LEGO:HP). Are LEGO:INDY or LEGO:Batman laid back on the combat? I'd think Batman not so much -- not sure about Indy... Are there any other games you guys can think of along those lines (coop with collectables/puzzles/exploration/loot but relaxed on the combat/platforming)?

:rofl:

What sucks is there's pretty much nothing to ever redeem them on. :(

I did my first 2 ever last night and got a $10 kmart card and $10 pet meds voucher.
