[quote name='munch']My wife just bought a 2007 Honda Accord that was manual. It's not as powerful as her Civic si, but it's nice having a stick shift.[/quote]

The lower model of car had more horsies? WTF?! :whistle2:s Isn't a civic usually 4 and an accord usually 6? Either way, sounds nice -- I just drove a buddy's 2009 civic (manual) and, other than the instrument cluster, i thought it was pretty nifty.

Wait, what? A Civic si is, like, the top model civic.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']That sounds pretty good, Temp. I'd love it. I'll give you my 2002 legacy with 81k in a straight up trade... ;)[/quote]

Ha, deal.

How are the repairs on Subarus? Expensive?
 
[quote name='munch']Wait, what? A Civic si is, like, the top model civic.[/quote]

Yeah, but usually the higher general model of car is better than a lower model.

In theory, a passat should be better than a jetta, in terms of horses and luxury and all that.
 
[quote name='Temporaryscars']Ha, deal.

Average, I'd say? I'm not sure -- I've had the car since March 05 and the most I've had to do for it was brakes and a thermostat.
 
I just got into watching this tv show called "Operation Repo" where they repo cars and bikes. It looked really funny as some of the arguments and confrontations were bizarre, but it seemed kind of strange to me. So I look it up and it turns out to be a fake reality series where they film everything as if its a reality show but its all fake. Did we seriously stoop down to the level of faking reality tv? Its one thing if its a talk show like Jerry Springer, but to have every aspect of a show be fake is kind of annoying.
 
[quote name='tiredfornow']The last betta I had got really upset one day and commited suicide from 6-7 feet up. I had the little tank mounted on the wall and he jumped but the weird thing is that I never found his fishy corpse. :([/quote]
I once had an algae eating fish that did that. Except that since they like to cling to surfaces, his dumbass jumped out of the tank and clung to the wall behind the aquarium. Was months later that i found his body still stuck to the wall.:roll:
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']Sorry dude, between my son being sick and me getting sick...today was the earliest I could get it out.

Played me some more Banjo-Kazooie, going for 100% completion...so far so good...next up the Haunted Mansion level :D[/quote]
No problem, not in a hurry. Will probably be a while before i can even get into it at this point.
 
[quote name='zewone']Yeah, I've tried that. Downloaded to the HDD and internal storage and neither works.[/QUOTE]I'll try out the license transfer and I'll let you know how it goes.

[quote name='Mojimbo']You should listen to the RadioLab episodes that have to do with science, especially the space/universe ones.[/QUOTE]

Radiolab is bwallin' as fuck. The episode on emergent phenomena and systems altered the way I think.
 
[quote name='Eviltude']Java Update just tricked me into installing the Yahoo toolbar. I hate that shit. :bomb:[/quote]
Me too, pisses me off that sun even includes that bullshit.
 
[quote name='Mojimbo']Java Update sucks dick. Do you even really need that?

What do you think about the idea of a multiverse, Liquid 2?[/QUOTE]
Does it involve Jet Li? If so, cool.

It's faked? I thought the commercial for the episode where the Asian guy hits one of them over the head with a frying pan was hilarious.
 
I think it has a disclaimer saying that some of the scenes are reenactments, which probably means some are kind of true and some are straight up bullshit.
 
[quote name='Mojimbo']Java Update sucks dick. Do you even really need that?[/QUOTE]

No. It's been popping up almost daily for a couple months, so I went ahead and did it. I think all it really did was install the toolbar too, which I immediately took off.
 
[quote name='Pookymeister']FEDERAL - E-filed return on 4/15/2009 11:58:00 PM (EST)[/QUOTE]

:lol: Nice.

I guess it's worth mentioning that it was only due tonight if you owe money. If you are getting money back, you were sweating for nothing.
 
[quote name='tiredfornow']I saw an episode of that Repo show earlier where some mexicans pulled AKs and pistols on the repo people. :lol:[/QUOTE]

Ah, so that's the segment they didn't make up.
 
This jman619 character is shitty. I'd rather have two slidecages than him.

Holy shit. This Alaska edition of Mythbusters is the shit.
 
This one time I grew an OTT and didn't even notice, the doctor picked it up during an exam and said it was time to cut it loose and let it go on its own. It was difficult, but after 2 syringes, 5 pairs of surgical scissors and a $10 co-pay, I'm competely OTT-free.

Good luck with the OTT, and I hope it all comes out OK for you in the end.
 
[quote name='Mojimbo']What do you think about the idea of a multiverse, Liquid 2?[/QUOTE]

Multiverse as in multiple universes? I think they're a neat idea, but, from what I understand, there's really no way that we can detect anything outside of our universe without energy on the the scale of Plank Energy, which is impossible to attain and control. I don't think it's really important.

Extradimensional mathematical physics is $ though. I think string theory has tons of potential. Here's a good example: http://www.sciencenews.org/view/feature/id/42632/title/Strings_Link_the_Ultracold_with_the_Superhot
An extradimensional explanation to completely different phenomena that we couldn't explain before.

I shall try to wrap my tiny brain around that tomorrow, Liquid.
 
I definitely lied about Plank Energy, it turns out. Wikipedia knows all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_energy
I still don't think it would be possible for us to probe other universes, but my reasoning was way off, so disregard that.

Let me know what you think of that article. It's super interesting. :)

And don't knock yourself, buddy. We all have different talents/interests. :grouphug:
 
Just wanted to hop in here and say that I feel weird reading about DOOM swindling his fans (just read it today). His rationale about character swapping and physically not performing at his shows because the whole scheme of merely portraying a "character" justifies that anybody can become one, thus warranting the idea that anybody can perform as DOOM, seems like an excuse for him just not wanting to perform, period.

This doesn't phase me much, because I'll listen to his music religiously, regardless, but, this is one of the reasons I don't like reading into an artist's thoughts or personal life. I don't think what he does with his life should affect the mood he gives off in his music, even if what he does is kinda crappy.

If his assertion comes from the heart, then I respect his ideas, but he shouldn't be promoting his shows (at all) if he isn't going to physically be there consistently.

Reading about that interview forced me to modify my signature. :0 \
