  1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hKNlsfLf_g How's that for truth in advertising? cavete terrae.
  2. Its up you nob if you want to get technical, it's really more of an "over to" than "up to", given that up and down are vertical movements. cavete terrae.
  3. Yeah, allegedly, but it's only been cool at night. It's been "unseasonably warm" as they like to say. I'm not complaining, but more rain during the sleep hours would do us well. cavete terrae.
  4. It is meant to be a beautiful week-end. You can never believe the weather people anyways. Wish i had a job that i could be right 50% of the time and still get paid. 50%? You've obviously never watched a weather forecast in Melbourne. I think at this point they're down to "The sun will probably rise, and eventually fuck off again. The temperature won't stay the same, but we have no idea if it'll get warmer or colder. Clouds? Who fucking knows? Go look yourself" cavete terrae.
  5. It's to make up for all the money we piss away buying women drinks, jewelry and chocolate. cavete terrae.
  6. Hopefully I'll get a few jumps on Saturday or Sunday if the weather plays nice. cavete terrae.
  7. No. I can have multiple citizenships with certain countries. Australia is among those. cavete terrae.
  8. d8-41-56-c5-63-56-88-c0 cavete terrae.
  9. I understand it was a joke, I was simply giving credit for the originality of it. Some people don't realize I'm giving credit. cavete terrae.
  10. I've never heard the amount of fingers used as a reasoning for it being called a forehead (nice one, let's hope she doesn't tell that to her friends ), but as long as I can remember I've referred to people with a large forehead e.g., Mena Suvari, as having a "fivehead". cavete terrae.
  11. The rest of 'em were little Mexican guys But I'm 6'3" and was in the middle of soccer season so I'd have been about 230 at the time. cavete terrae.
  12. 1. The menu, under "Drinks", says "Coke and shit" 2. The chicken burger is called "cock", and other burger choices include, but are not limited to, "God" "Mercy" and "No Disrespect". 3. The text on their mailing list signup: If you want to get the odd SMS from us with some free stuff, just SMS: "FREE SHIT" to 0428 BURGER (0428 287 437). SMS costs you whatever your telco charges (usually 25c) . We're not greedy enough to charge you 55c to vote for some turkey slapper and make money out of your text. We'd just like to SMS you with cool stuff occasionally. And we don't give your details to any dodgy list company. Your details are under our cone of silence and you can opt-out at anytime. 4. Bizarre hours of operation: We commence our magic at 10:59am each day and stop producing our magic at: Sun-Wed 10:03pm Thurs 12:02am Fri & Sat 2:58am cavete terrae.
  13. Sure, but natural talent plays ZERO part in it. I have always been very good at combat flight sims, I've got a knack for it. I can generally sit down in front of a computer with a stick and a throttle and put up a very good fight against anyone I play. I was one of the testers for what's still the benchmark for combat flight sims, I took a four year break, and when I came back I could still outfly many people who'd logged god knows how many more hours than me. But I had more fun knocking it back a few notches and really furballing than I did splashing someone before they knew what was going on. I suck at shooter games, on the other side of things, no matter how much I play them cavete terrae.
  14. god dammit now I'm thinking abotu firing my account back up. Grrr. cavete terrae.
  15. WoW has 10-day free trials. That's enough to give a person a small taste of the game. The game is HUGE though. Far, far larger in content that most people who have not played it can possibly imagine. I played Eve for 6 weeks (checked my credit card records ) and had fun, but got sick of getting my ass kicked by people who've never seen a naked woman that they didn't use their mom's credit card to rent. All I kept thinking was "give me a chance to control this fucking thing myself and I'll show them a thing or two", and it hit the point where the frustration wasn't worth the fun. cavete terrae.
  16. Yes, but that's not what I was talking about in my earlier post. If a fight is happening in Solar System X, what's happening in Solar System Y doesn't matter. Sure, 500 v 500 battles are still going to be impossible with right now technology, but you can artificially limit battle sizes in certain ways. I'll take a 50 v 50 fight with manually controlled mechs and aerospace fighters over a 500 v 500 fight where all I do is point and click. I'm sure others feel the same. cavete terrae.
  17. What sucks though are the ones where you have to buy the damned game to see if you like it. EVE at least gives you the game for free so if you go "ok, this sucks" you're not out much. cavete terrae.
  18. Oh, I understand the issues with it, but it can be done eventually. Realistically, you don't need to know what's going on between two battlemechs on mars if you're fighting on earth, and if you do get curious, you don't need an INSTANT response, you know? A couple seconds of lag to get the info from another server isn't going to affect what you're doing. cavete terrae.
  19. Some day… some day. Realistically they could use multiple servers to get around that. Yes, it'd be slightly annoying to have to deal with server handoffs if I leave a certain region or whatever, but I think it could be done. cavete terrae.
  20. I want an MMORPG where I can pilot a jet/space ship/mech and have my personal skill count for something. The one thing I hate about 'em is that if some fucker who plays the game for 20 hours a day decides to kill me, it doesn't matter how good of a pilot I am in a simulator, I'm just toast because he's got Level 809230123 masturbatory deathray skill. My ideal one would be something based on the BattleTech universe, where you could be a dropship pilot, jumpship pilot, mech pilot, aerospace fighter pilot, infantryman, etc. Let people pick at the beginning if they want to manually pilot shit, or typical RPG piloting shit where they can control a capital ship or whatever btu don't have to worry about actually controlling anything. Let people who want to manually pilot use the smaller combat craft and actually control them and stuff. People who don't want to fight can be traders or ferry pilots or politicians, whatever. cavete terrae.

    Who will admit?

    Oh, I'm not going to send a naked pic. Just send a PM whilst naked. Last thing I need are nudies of me floating around. cavete terrae.
  22. Just one?... 24 hours of sitting around reading various books in a county jail in Nebraska. Hoo-fucking-rah. Could of been worse....you could of met Baba I had about 6 inches of height and probably 65 pounds on the next biggest guy there. I wasn't worried cavete terrae.

    Yeah, well, I started out at horrified and now I've just managed to hit a nice stride of fear and dread. The_Don just HAD to go and wonder about something like this. There's no need to be fearful, dreadful, or horrified. No need at all. cavete terrae.
