This is a great video. Very moving stuff.

This shows the worst and best of humanity. The situation in South Africa is terrible, but people like Ben Goldacre, who are prepared to make a stand give me hope that we can fix the situation. The more people see this and understand the importance of science and critical thinking the better.

Ben Goldacre is a personal hero of mine, long may he continue his crusade.

I love Reach, but they made it less skill-based. I understand that this was in the interest of making it a more "team"-oriented game, but when I can't mash on two fucking noobs just because 4 body shots plus one headshot is THE SAME THING as 5 headshots with the DMR, I feel fucking betrayed. Now that the SWAT playlist is live, that and Rumble Pit are the only thing I'll be touching. It's still a good game, but making it noob-friendly kills a lot of my enjoyment as somebody who's okay at the game.

Heh, I actually have some good stuff happen to me with Armour lock. People don't seem to realize that when the guy comes out, if you're too close, you're hit with an EMP burst losing shields.
Can't tell you how many double kills I've gotten by having two idiots just stand beside me in armour lock.
Oh, and then there's always this beauty.


Haha, that's always great. Sprint is my overall favorite, but lately I've been having a lot of fun with Hologram, and Armor Lock is always useful, especially if you have a teammate to drop a nade on the morons just waiting for you to come out of it so they can melee you. In a one-on-one situation, dropping your armor lock for anything other than blocking a quick melee is pretty disadvantageous oftentimes though, because if they have four nades they can just space them so that you WILL die as soon as you come out of it (if they're thinking, that is).

You're right, it is a dupe. I tried to fix your dead video with the embed ant used, so that's how I caught it. Anyway, find someone else to *isdupe it (I already did the *dupeof invocation), then you can fix it.

lawlz.

And I would swear on my last penny that this was a guy who I used to know, who I cannot fucking stand. Tripped me out

>> ^quantumushroom:
I have provided some--not many--laughs over the years. But if I got my face smashed in by anybody, at this juncture it would be overdue karmic justice.


Fixed.

Family Guy is watchable; still nothing compared to Simpsons... but I dont change the channel... cuz im too fuckin stoned.

You know you want to laugh, bitch! http://www.videosift.com/video/Family-Guy-Brutal-River-Pheonix-Reference-Stand-By-Me

They should make a "Khaan!" ringtone. They probably already have. On a similar note, I used to have the opening to Ozzy's 'Crazy Train' as a ring tone for a while. You know: "ALL ABOARD! HA HA HA HA!" That always got priceless glares when I scared the shit out of strangers who happened to be standing near me when it sounded off.

In reply to this comment by swampgirl:
LOL.. my son didn't get it at all.

You know this reminds me of the best valentine card I ever received. You remember when those cards that recorded your voice were popular? A guy sent me one where he recorded this scene.

"Finally a card that says how I really feel about you" ::open card::
"KAHN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I kept that card for years until it died out.

Thanks KP, very funny
