Got me wrong.
AHHHHHHHH MOTHERLAND-

Laura, President of Dictionaries- Thazza good question, mate.

Sen, President of Dorky Haircuts- ToS is alot of fun. It's like old school RPGs without all the jagged polygons that cut into your eyes. *points to scaring on eyes*

Roxie, President of Everything- Muse *is* overrate-*stoned to death by MyO Muse cult following* Ahhh! O_O

P.S. Why does anything that is planned, fail? Something goes awry. There are several ways that Communism can go awry- for one thing, humans are corruptible. Money, power, prestige- that all can be corruptible. It's just another idealistic dream [a world for the worker, by the worker] that cannot be applied 100 perfect efficiently because humanity is humanity.

Aye Di Ehf, President of Green Fonts- Diablo/Icewind Dale= rocks. Absolution is pretty good, but not the best I've gotten. I like track 2. o.o


Watch where you spit.

I'm a pretty big watcher of movies- not current, shitty movies [everything in the theatres right now sucks]. Older, better movies are my cup of tea- stuff before 1991, mainly. I don't know how much you guys watch old movies, I know some of you are pretty big consumers of the current, shitty movies but uh.. if you ever find the DVD of these movies, you should get it.

Harold and Maude (1971) [DVD]- This movie is a very, very good movie. It has a very morbid sense of humor at times- and if it's morbid, I like it. The acting is done very well- the guy who plays the teenager does a superb job. I think that alot of you would find it is, well, you know- speaking your language. It's about this shy, introverted kid whose mom is trying to force him into, well- living life. She is trying to arrange marriages for him and such, but he is more interested in attending funerals of people he doesn't know- at one of these funerals, he meets an older woman named Maude. Maude thinks that he needs to live life too- but she does it in a different, more interesting way than his mother is trying to do.

Being There (1979) [DVD]- Anything Peter Sellers is in, I adore- he is my favorite actor of all time, without a doubt. This movie is a little bit different from the stereotypical silly movies he is in- it is deeper, much deeper and, once again, has a very good underlying message in it. I don't have to mention how good the acting is- Peter Sellers = God. The story is about this guy who has learned all he knows from TV- he has worked as a gardener for all of his life at an isolated house. The wealthy recluse who was raising him dies and he is forced out into the real world. It was pretty touching at the end- might have stirred my heart a bit. Just a bit. ;)

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) [DVD]- Peter Seller's, man- demi-god of acting. This is the best satirical film I have ever seen- Peter Sellers plays three separate characters and is wonderful in all of them. The comedy is, well- both subtle and not. You can like it if you don't understand the underlying messages, you can like it more if you do- it's win-win. The synopsis is, well- A general thinks that the Communists are fluoridating America's drinking water, so he a B-52 H-Bomb attack on the Soviets. A frantic President and Joint Cheifs of Staff have to find a way to stop it. Sounds good, eh?

The Silence of the Lambs (1991) [DVD]- This is probably my favorite movie of all time- Anthony Hopkins is the other demi-god of acting, better than any current star. The way he plays Hannibal is just so.. amusing to me. It's pure evil, and it's amusing to me. The scenes when he is attacking those guards is just so beautifully filmed, it's wondrous. Everyone should seen an uncut version of this movie at least once if they want to call themselves a movie addict.

Those are my four favorite movies- they outclass any current release in the last few years in every way possible, in my opinion. So.. yeah.

Hopefully, this will have been of good use to someone.

Crazy, but that's how it goes.

Life is abnormally fine. I'm waiting for the drop off beneath my feet, though- I'm sure it will come soon, lol. It feels good to be going to OB because I want to go- when I was a mod, I grew tired of feeling like I had an obligation to something as silly as an online message board. You shouldn't do things like that because you feel obligated- you should do it because you want to, it's entertainment, you know? Why did I come there first? I came there because it's a forum, it's a place of talking. You shouldn't ever put obligation upon yourself to basically go talk with people, lol. I would like to be a moderator again, ironically- maybe of Otaku Lounge or something since no one in the PC forum really talks about the sorts of games I play on the PC.

I don't know about you, but the trend on OB seems to have shifted away from all these little moo-cow stereotypical newbies to pseudo-philosophers- mind you, I understand I could be slid into that class, but the people on OB are alot more egotistically charged then I am. "I AM RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG SO AHAHAHAHAHAHAA YOU SILLY PENIS". Stuff like that. I can take a hit to my opinion because- it's opinion. It's supposed to be fluid, like water- not a huge rock that no one can move. There is a difference between being stubborn and being stupid- and I feel safe in saying several people on OB fall into the latter. There are, of course, several respectable intellectuals on OB- Siren, James.. uhh... ... uhhh....

... Those are the only two I can think of.

Come down and waste away with me, down with me.

Stuff to watch out for:

-Rwanda doing bad things to Hutus in the Congo.
-Africa continuing to be a shithole post-colonialism. [The white man is HOLDING ME DOWN by not letting us engage in tons of civil war!]
-Ukraine doing bad things to itself.
Before a nation-wide group hug breaks out due to too much vodka.
-Russia doing bad things to the west.
The west not giving a shit because, hey- it's Russia.
Before remembering the thousands of nukes Russia has.
Before remembering that if Russia tried to launch a nuke it would probably do a giant loop and slam into it's own soil. [In Soviet Russia, nuke nukes you!]
-MLB doing bad things to it's players.
Before they continue paying them millions of dollars to hit balls, catch balls, throw balls and run around bases in questionable uniforms.
-The economy slowly going up.
Before it goes back down.
-Oil prices faltering around some more.
Before they go back up.
-Someone going insane on OB.
-Me going insane on OB.
-A ton of rappers/black people/white people who like to think they are black/ghetto people getting a Grammy nomination [or more] because, hey- you don't have to make music to win a Grammy. =)
-Eminem getting shot because.. he needs to be shot.
In the chest.
With a double barreled shotgun called "Divine Justice Or: Shut the fuck up before I make you".
-Someone asking for dating advice on OB.
Where some of the brighter minds on OB will try to help them and somehow fail horribly.
-France will screw up again.
And yet still be arrogantly prideful of their nation because, hey- France did hold off Germany in one war out of three.
With the help of half the superpowers at the time.
And half the great powers at the time.
And a ton of smaller nations who no one really cared about then and still don't care about. [New Zealand: WE SENT PEOPLE TO GET KILLED, RESPECT US >_<]
They even conquered most of Europe one time!
Before getting their ass kicked by.. winter.
-George Bush to do that quirky smile of his. [George Bush: *smile* I wish I had a clue! ^_^]
As he dooms another nation full of middle eastern people.
Yet still has more support than any democratic rival.
Because, hey- people know that the God they worship wants you to kill as much as possible. Go religious people! Get those suckers!
-Someone, somewhere to look up into the sky and suddenly realize they are living someone elses life.
Before they promptly leap off a cliff.
And realize that was probably a bad time to give in to what their gut was telling them to do.
-This MyO post eventually ending. [K: HELLO TO YOU I HAVE MUCH TO SAY TAKE A SEAT. Person: <_>]
But not before you lose the 12 percent of your sanity that is left.

Went in the room, didn't stay long. Looked on the bed and 'brother was dead.

There is no problem with Otaku Lounge. There is nothing to change. You cannot effect the flow of people into it and their views, the things they will create. To try to control that is irritatingly dictatorial, to say the least. If you wish to curb the tide of what *you* view as meaningless or irritating topics, then that's great- I see no reason to. I might make fun of them alot, but it's Otaku Lounge- it's there for people to talk about shit. Not to knock down OB's stereotypical, false message of it being Quality over anything else posts but really- not everyone exists on the basis of deep thought. I don't know if I will post this in that thread in OL. We'll see if I can word this in a truthful fashion without stirring any controversy- or maybe my opinion will change by the time I feel like trudging up the words. We'll see. But for now, I see no way you could "improve" it in the ways that are implied without coming off as being a jackass board full of intellectual elitist nutcases.

Waaaaaait. I'm a intellectually elitist nutcase! Uh oh, this has turned into a PARADOX. HM. Well, while I am that way, that forum seems specifically bred for a mix- between the people who are the pseudo-intellectuals and the people who aren't.

.. Yeah.

Make my way back home, gonna learn to fly.
