I bought a SATA3 SSD recently for my OS/programs/couple of games and its well worth it. Power on to usable desktop in Windows 7 in less than 10 seconds. Still keep a RAID array of conventional disks for mass storage.

It really is a good upgrade for old computers, anything with a SATA port should show a big improvement over a HDD even if the SATA controller is only SATA1. In my experience they are backward compatible, they should just run at the lower speed of the controller*.

Nice to see OAG making some squids out of her internet fame, she seems to be making the most of it, good for her.

I don't even know where to start with how wrong that is.

Well, why don't you watch the linked video and then if you still think it's wrong, say why on that videos discussion page.

There's no need to watch the video.
Chimpanzees are not monkeys. Humans are not monkeys.
Chimpanzees and Humans belong to the Hominidae family of the Primate order.
Monkeys belong to the Cercopithecidae family of the Primate order.
We definitely had a common ancestor, but that ancestor was not a monkey or a human.
You might as well claim that since we share a common ancestor with squid, we're squid.


If that's what you believe you should watch the video.

More importantly we shouldn't have this discussion here since it's not really relevant to THIS video anymore, so it should either be moved to our profiles or onto the comments page for the other video.

A dildo! A bong! No, wait... a squid! Oh, I see, it's a person. The Heat Miser! No, Elvis! I know... it's Lincoln! Yep, there's his beard, alrighty. Wait a sec... that ain't Lincoln. Hmmm... Chuck Norris? Wait, what the hell is that thing? A bunny? One of those headless dudes from Serious Sam? What is he wrapping... around... Sumo wrestler! Headless Sumo wrestler! He's leaning against a cactus! Nope, he's TIED to the cactus for some reason. Now he's... I have no idea what that is, but it looks like it would make a cool lamp.

Oh my that first episode with the flying squids! At the time I was gobsmacked by how bad that was. And it took about two years before they showed a decent episode.

BTW what is up with Q's hair in the New version?

I liked the squid sparkle bomb at the end.

Why don't the cops just drive close to him and use EMP power up? Newbs.

Don't cop cars in Australia come with banana peels?


That's a GREAT idea! Next time the police should just ask all the civilians to throw out their banana peels, turtles or squid instead of forming a road block.

The common term for people like this among riders are "Squids"

Some misconceptions I've read in this thread:
1) The squid is most definitely not alive/feeling pain. As seen in this video


except the brain isn't in "the head". at least not the part that's removed.

I just discovered this artist, and am completely hooked. I sifted one of her pieces already, but then saw this one, and immediately thought of you, @dystopianfuturetoday and wee Frankie. If you sift it, lemme know so's I can up'mote it and stuff!

(waves white flag) OK, I surrender. Jules Verne trumps Andrew Stanton, you win this round @EvilDeathBee

My local store had something like this a few weeks ago.
Vegan squid. and it has absolutely no real meat in it what-so-ever!~ They were so proud of their product. All I could think of was "Then, why would I want to eat it?"


Tell that to Captain Nemo

Vegan squid? That's a new one. I'm going to look for it.
