Clothing advertising industrial machinery turns me on too.

They forced me to do a management course last semester, which of course I treated with disdain. By some element of fate I averaged 80% until the final exam, on which I got 35%.

Take THAT shitty course for moronic business students, of which I am not one.

Led Zeppelin is a tad on the heavy side, despite being quite soft.

But Iron Maiden is just too....ferrous.

"Doing the deed" is a intriquing way to propose, and lends itself to many double entendres about rings.

Try the insta game http://www.sylpher.com/ig/ .

It's designed for this very purpose.

Hey, did I say that she was anything other than stupid? := [in this capacity at least].

Equality in this sphere of social relationships is a great thing for all people really...well, most equality is like that anyway.

If I bought an engagement ring, I'd probably make it a skull ring from a christmas cracker, or a giant plastic one, something stupid and irritating. It's an arguably endearing trait I display.

I have a friend who refuses to even ask guys out, since she beleives they should as her, though I believe this is far less being traditional than a case of softcockery.

I told her that if she couldn't handle the heat, she should get back in the kitchen.

Mad Max 4 is cited for release around the same time as Duke Nukem Forever.

The people were saying that when you first started posting Yuf.

They were saying that before then.

And before then as well.

There hasn't really been any change at all.

And as you'd expect, the only person in this thread who's been ehre longer than me is saying much the same things.

July is a shitty month for all forums I think. Get the buggers back at work and at school.

Macadamia icecream is lovely.

I could have had pizza, but instead I went and had a free meal at the pub at trivia night.

mmm, counter meal, big and greasy.

We've been going there for a year, and the object of trivia nights is to bring in more customers.
In that year we've probably spent less than $30, and consumed and taken home well over a grand in won grog, food and cash.

I reckon a huge part of the relative successes in "3d" [I dispute that either are really much different to a 2d adventure] especially in terms of interface, is that GF eliminated all visual elements of the interface, so you were more integrated into the game.

When EMI put text on screen with command sentences, and even the floating in space GUI, it put an element between the player and Guybrush that wasn't there before.

Which ruins the point of the keyboard interface.

Do you have petrol stations in Queensland?


My main nocturnal craving, of a gastronomic nature, is for Turkish pizza.

Co-incidently, it's these establishments that are open until 5 am.

Occasionally I think of something and want to find out more about it, but Wikipedia is unavailable...

....SHUT UP

I don't think Smells Like Teen Spirit's success had any basis in it's lyrics.

Despite their deeply meaningful and meaning laden nature....

Since the Sydney media has dug up every cost-benefit study on hosting the olympics ever made, we've probably read most of them in NSW.

I remember several mentioning that Montreal is still paying of it's debt.

Sydney, like many cities, built most of the facilities in a former industrial area in order to "revitalise" it [as well as the land being cheaper].

problem is, when you've still got facilities there after the athletes have gone home, you realise why the place needed revitalisation. Maybe this would be less pronounced in London since it's geographically smaller than Sydney [every city in the world is really. Sydney is a endless rolling plain of suburbs].

There's also a good seven years of bureaucratic fuck ups to distract the media facing you.

Ironically, the best thing the olympics did for the Australian economy was to nealy send it into recession. Most economies around then were teetering at the edge of the trough, and just needed something to push it in. In Australia, it was a post olympics hangover [along with a new tax], and that essentially saved us from the bigger fall in septemeber the next year.

[and I just described that in really horrible layman's terms]

That's the main strength of having multiple engines. They can specialise to a degree to suit different people.

and I thought we'd settled that there was no point contesting this over 6 months ago.

Each to his own, there is no competition between engines, and only fools and silly fanbois bother arguing about which is best.

Of course, do you think Bush would say that if there was a chance in hell that the EU would drop the subsidies?
