[quote name='Maklershed']Howdy OTT. My internet is acting really weird. I can't dl the CAGcast, get on certain sites like Hotmail and Urban Dead but can get on others, and I can't use trillian. Also, WSB .. what the fuck is your problem, the OCD in me demands you put OTT in the title! Or I'll go :whee:[/quote]
It's too early in the morning for :whee:
 
[quote name='munch']Wait, you woke up with a sever case of the me's?[/QUOTE]Yes.


[quote name='Sleepkyng']Liquid you were totally right on about winamp vs. foobar

maybe if i knew more about config stuff foobar would be good

but winamp is the perfect solution for me - i'm finally off of itunes![/QUOTE]

Best Winamp skin ever: http://www.mediafire.com/?amnfdtwyhm2

The only downside to it is the lack of a pause button, but you cal just click on Winamp and press C to do so.
 
How come no one told me Prey was better than Bioshock? I just started playing it. I'm only an hour into it but so far it's really good.
 
[quote name='getmeoutofjoliet']Uhh... I spent like 10 hours yesterday running around and taking pictures, but I got to meet,greet, and mini-interview CM Punk![/QUOTE]

Happened every time I had a week long holiday off. Christmas 2006. Mardi Gras 2008. Spring Break 2008.
 
[quote name='Sleepkyng']liquid, i couldn't get that skin to install :([/QUOTE]

Did it install, but when you use it, you can't see the window?
Try going to Preferences-->Skins-->Modern Skins-->Alpha Blending and check off Enable Desktop Alpha Blending.


Off to work.

Because it's not?
 
I'm sort of worried my MGS4 DVD won't sell, but looking at completed auctions none of 'em have gone unsold really, so I don't see why mine would. :/
 
Yeah, Rokk, I've had like the second lowest BIN for a day plus and I haven't gotten any hits. :whistle2:[

Some German dude did ask how much it would cost to ship to him(even though I said I only ship to the US.) Don't even know if I should respond.

But when I look at completed auctions there's some that have recently sold for $30 plus shipping and no BINs have gone unsold. So they should sell. Mine ends in 4 hrs.

I'm going to go to GS today and try to get GoW II for $20 minus 10% coupon (either $2 or $4 off depending on how that works...), black label. That'd be nice.
 
Rocko - you havent played 2 yet? You're in for some good stuff.

Speaking of GoW, in CoO am I at the very end ... I'm where you
jam your chains into Persephone's tree and you lose all your magic and health and what not
 
I was so :oops: when it took me 20 minutes to find out what I had to do to get the sun shield in the PSP version yesterday.

Nope, never played 1 either, CoO is my first one. I just bought 1 on eBay and I started it like 10 minutes ago.

I've gotta say, that part of the game is easily my favorite. What comes next is so awesome, I absolutely loved it. Let me know what you think of it when you're done.
 
Holy shitballs. GoW is sooo money. I wish I could erase it from my memory so I can go back and play 1 and 2 again for the first time. If you like CoO (which you obviously do) you're gonna love 1 and 2. The puzzles and the bosses are much grander in scale. And there's a lot more big ass things in the backgrounds.
 
Dayum Rokk, now you're tempting me with that GOW2 deal.

The only thing that's making me unsure is I don't want to dick around with Gamestop on the weekend.
 
Tell me what you think of my article before I submit it;

JOLIET- The fans came out in force to meet WWE Superstar C.M. Punk this past Friday at the Joliet Wal-mart. Many showed up with their Wrestling Memorabilia, Autograph books, and plenty of snacks and picnic chairs to wait it out in line. "They've been lined up since 9:30 this morning, and he's been here since 9:00." say to me the Wal-mart Associates, refering to a young boy sitting up front. Julian, 13, from Lombard, was dropped off by his Aunt in the morning so he could be the first one in line.
A crowd of 600+ showed up for their chance to meet and receive autographs from the recent winner of "The Money In The Bank" Ladder Match at this Past-weekend's Wrestlemania XXIV in front of a sold-out crowd at The Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida. Punk, a Chicago native, was scheduled to appear from 6:00 to 8:00 PM and sign 400 autographs. However, by 6:00 there were approximately 500 fans in line with more showing up every minute. People were stunned by the size of the crowd and many-second guessed getting in line and turned around and left. They came in from all over the Chicagoland Area some as far away as Indiana and Springfield. Curious on-lookers asked what the line was for and could not believe so many had gathered for a chance at getting an autograph.
C.M. Punk walked in a few minutes after 6, with the Money In The Bank Briefcase in tow, to a huge pop of cheers and applause. He waved to the crowd before taking his seat. Julian sooned approached him and was all smiles as he shook C.M. Punk's hand and was allowed to pick up the Briefcase. Punk would then go on to meet with hundreds of fans, engaging in conversation and taking pictures with everyone almost as if they were old friends. In fact, some of his old classmates showed up with Yearbooks with his picture in them for him to sign.
C.M. Punk would then go on to sign Autographs for over four hours and made sure everybody who waited in line got to come up and meet him. He left after 10pm, over two hours more than he was scheduled. C.M. Punk says "I appreciate all the support the fans have given me throughout my career, and thanks to everybody for coming out today." He then went on to take a few more pictures with the Wal-Mart Associates and sign the banner that announced his appearance, before eventually departing through the back door of the store.
Wal-Mart Associates called the event a huge success with hundreds of DVD's sold as well as other wrestling-related merchandise and a bigger turn-out than anyone expected. They wonder how things will be this Monday when Chicago Bears player Desmond Clark will be making an appearance.

That is the only answer. I never go to my DQ though. It is super old and run down, and always filled with grumpy old people.

I really hope they're not assholes about it. The ad says $20, and the back of the ad says prices are good until the 6th, so I hope they just change the price and give it to me.
 
MooLatte's are awesome, but I can't have more then one a month.

I'm just a coffee fan. I could go for some Tim Horton's right now.

Ditto. Except mine is on the wrong side of town, and it's rival gang members at mine not old people.



I take the ladies to the old-fashioned Ice cream place in the next town over.
 
[quote name='Maklershed']So what do ya'll like to get at Dairy Queen?[/QUOTE]

Honestly? Their box of cheese fries.. omg :drool:

Just got back from NYC last night. Was fortunate enough to have White Castle, twice. :D

Whoever invented colon cleansing never had a White Castle burger.
 
There's a Baskin Robbins next door to work that has tiramisu ice cream with actual pieces of the tiramisu cake in it. That said, a tiramisu milkshake rules.
 
Good morning. I made a kickass breakfast this morning, and now i'm off to buy a screen protector for my PSP and maybe a case. Anyone know of any good brands to go with?

I wouldn't bother with the trouble of a screen protector if you're getting a case.

However, if you insist, Hori is the way to go.
 
fucking great. All I want to do is play saints row 43% done but I have to go on a walk with my girl.


A walk.....who the hell just walks around? Now if we are going to play something like soccer or tennis I can do that...but just walking?

I might be jaded beacuse I grew up in a ghetto where you didnt walk anywhere unless you had to and even then you kinda did a half jog walk.




EDIT: I like how the AI driving in Saints Row is way better than the one in Halo 3
