[Slewo.O]

And now I'm worn out...

Night.

Night Billy.

[Black Roman]

Heard Lykke Li's full album over on Hype Machine. On first impressions, I dug it. Haven't heard it since though.




So if anyone looking for something new, check out Wounded Rhymes.

[ZombieSpeedball]

Gonna finish listening to Sklarbro Country and then pass out. Woo!

[JasonWGBB007]

Today is the baby's official due date. Seeing as I'm at work, she hasn't come yet. Now to see how long before she decides to join us in this world. :)

Good luck and congrats!

[JasonWGBB007]

[Cactusakic]

ugh. why I am I up so early

So that you can watch Following?

[Slewo.O]

Because you like being up early?

[JasonWGBB007]

[Cactusakic]

Nice.

Love to hear your opinion once you've seen it.

If I'm not around, just leave a message in the BS thread and I'll see it.

[JasonWGBB007]

alrighty. I'm probably starting it within the next half hour. :D

[JasonWGBB007]

Time to watch this. I also have Insomnia(the Nolan version) so maybe I'll make it a double feature. Perhaps triple by rewatching Memento

[GelfXIII]

... hmmmm, interesting. Care to share? Or are we not good enough for you and your geek friends?


:D

PM'ed

[chazbot]

Ugh... got some freelance work offer, which I don't know if I should take or not. On one hand, it'll help keep us taken care of while my wife is on leave with the baby. On the other, it'll mean 60+ hour weeks right when having a newborn.



You can skype me in! :mad:

You can be the naked drummer!

Yeah... I did watch that Rainn Wilson movie... :surrend:

[JasonWGBB007]

haha Batman logo on this guys door. Oh Nolan, if you only knew

[Kedd]

Morning!

[Slewo.O]

Morning!

Morning Mr. Kedd! Do you want to see the paper I'm doing for my English Class on William Blake's "A Poison Tree"?

[chazbot]

Morning!

Kedd, should I look a gift horse in the mouth or not?

[Kedd]

Morning Mr. Kedd! Do you want to see the paper I'm doing for my English Class on William Blake's "A Poison Tree"?
Not even a little bit, guy! But thanks for asking! Nah, seriously, sure, let's see it.


Kedd, should I look a gift horse in the mouth or not?
Depends, does the horse know where you live and will your wife find out? Oh, wait, you said "look"..."shifty:

[Slewo.O]

:lol:

I was trying my best Mitch impersonation. But thanks , how should I send it to?

[Foolish Mortal]

MSNBC is reporting now on how Toyota had to shut down it's factories in Japan due to parts shortages and power restrictions, and how that means people in the US won't get their Priuses.

Of course, Jeff and Amanda in Boston not getting their Prius is the most important thing right now.


:bored:

[JasonWGBB007]

That was a pretty damn good movie. With a great twist

[Kedd]

:lol:

I was trying my best Mitch impersonation. But thanks , how should I send it to?
What? I dunno. How long is this paper and is it interesting? Is it an opinion piece or some type of critical analysis? gimme the title, I'll go from there.

The bank.

oh.

That makes sense.

[J Money]

Slap Shot has to be a top 5 all time sports flick.

Just saw that last weekend on Netflix Instant. Pretty damn good, Newman is an all time fav. I didn't know it was rated R, even better!

Also, Blazers! :rock:

[markgrayson]

The bank.

Just found out they're taking away the rewards program?

[Slewo.O]

At least you understand.

It's a little bit of both. It's an analysis of its spiritual ties, rhythm, and emotional resonance. The poem is included at the beginning.

[Black Roman]

G'morning. (sort of.)

[Kedd]

Co-worker just caught me posting on the board. I do not care.

[Cactusakic]

Slap Shot has to be a top 5 all time sports flick.

Only just saw this thanks to J Money quoting.

Yes, yes it does.

Also: The Natural and, slightly more controversially perhaps, Any Given Sunday.

[chazbot]

I can't make it through all of Any Given Sunday... I just lose interest...
Plus why Slap Shot gets the boost is that it was out before so many of these others that use the grizzled old timer, the young upstart, the rebel, and all these other tropes that are now sports movie standards.

I'd have to say my tops is the original Bad News Bears.
I freaking love that movie.

[Black Roman]

... I love sports, I love movies, but I am struggling to think of 5 sports movies that I REALLY enjoyed. :dunno:

Fucking love Any Given Sunday.
I shouldn't, but I do.
And Pacino's "inches" speech toward the end makes well well-up like a girl every damn time.

Agreed again on Slap Shot.

Never seen Bad News Bears, original or otherwise.

[chazbot]

Well, I e-mailed back about the freetime work and basically put the ball in their court. Kind of a, well I can give it a try, but here's x-y-z why someone else might be easier to use. That way if I have to eventually back out of it, at least I put that out there right away.

[Cactusakic]

... I love sports, I love movies, but I am struggling to think of 5 sports movies that I REALLY enjoyed. :dunno:

Rocky franchise?

The aforementioned Natural, Bad News Bears, Any Given Sunday and Slap Shot?

Mighty Ducks?
Raging Bull?
Field Of Dreams?

Granted, those last two aren't so much "sports" movies, but you get where I'm coming from.

[JasonWGBB007]

Never thought I'd say this, but Hilary Swank looks somewhat attractive in this movie.

[Black Roman]

I'm going to make a mild confession. I hated the Rocky franchise. :surrend:

[chazbot]

Never seen Bad News Bears, original or otherwise.

Being the movie fan you are, definitely see Bad News Bears.
Walter Matthau in one of his iconic performances. Young Tatum O'Neal and Jackie Earl Haley play two of the Bears. It's just fantastic.

[Cactusakic]

Color Of Money?

Big Lebowski (reaching, I know)?

[chazbot]

Never thought I'd say this, but Hilary Swank looks somewhat attractive in this movie.

Someone must be hard up to think that!! ;)

[Cactusakic]

Never thought I'd say this, but Hilary Swank looks somewhat attractive in this movie.

Which dovetails nicely into...

Million Dollar Baby?

5 blows and Balboa ain't great, but 1-4 are brilliant.
Imo, natch.

oh I still wouldn't do her. But compared to how she normally looks.

[Cactusakic]

Million Dollar Baby?


Or even the Karate Kid franchise.

[Black Roman]

I liked Field of Dreams (ehhh, sort of a sport movie), Any Given Sunday, Slap Shot . . . and that's typically where my mind goes blank.




Unless you count Raging Bull. And even then, that's just the 4. I'll have to think on it.

[chazbot]

I have sentimentality for Rudy, but usually the overwrought against all odds stories don't do it for me.


oh I still wouldn't do her. But compared to how she normally looks.

Okay, whew. :)

[Black Roman]

Got to go to the library to return stuff. Don't feel like it, but that's nothing new.

[chazbot]

I need to go!
I need to get back to reading novels for that book challenge. Robin Hood taking me forever got me off track and then I just diverged into reading a bunch of trades instead (as usual).

Baseketball, that's the one you are forgetting.

[Kedd]

Best sports movie: Stick It.

[JasonWGBB007]

man he's hardly appeared in this movie but Robin Williams is fantastic

[Black Roman]

Baseketball, that's the one you are forgetting.

I didn't forget, it just goes without saying.



I mean, DUH. ;)

[Kedd]

I'm reminded that I need to re-buy the Static trade because I gave my original copy to my Niece a few months ago.

[JasonWGBB007]

Wow Insomnia was really good

[chazbot]

I'm reminded that I need to re-buy the Static trade because I gave my original copy to my Niece a few months ago.

Just take it back from her! :)


Wow Insomnia was really good

I probably need to rewatch it, but it was late at night in the theater when I went to see it, so the pacing kind of killed it for me.

[JasonWGBB007]

I just love psychological thrillers. and Chris Nolan. So combine the two, match made in heaven

[capntightpants]

I didn't finish my thought last night because I was really depressed over that trip, guys. Sorry. It was a really big deal to me because of Jen's bday/grad and the long time I've been putting into planning that trip.

I just noticed in the past month, I've pretty much been in here just to sulk: about work stress, McDuffie's death, my parents in Japan, and my cancelled trip.

He is on the same Pacific island that Biggie and Tupac went to! Don't believe the hype!

[capntightpants]

On a happy note, Jen is staying on the positive side like she always does and is telling me not to worry so much about it (as long we're together, she says).

She's the best. Have I said that yet?

[Arion]

How would you feel paying less than 2 bucks for The Killing Joke?

http://blogs.peru21.pe/comics21/broma%20asesina_nuevo%20panel-thumb-550x256.jpg

The Peruvian edition doesn't have any extras but it is a good enough edition.

[chazbot]

That seems like a good price for the Killing Joke.

Hmm...and I went ahead and agreed to that freelance stuff. Should be interesting to juggle new fatherhood, my job, and this work, especially when overtime starts back up in the summer for my job, but it'll keep me out of the poor house.

Oh, and I'll probably have to change my name to stressbot. :)

You are an evil evil man, and that is the only reason I've stayed friends with you. Never change, Kedd. Never change.

Oddly enough, I agree.

Can I still have my copy ?

[Kedd]

I'll PM. Left over funds will be used to buy and destroy all copies of Scott Pilgrim.


Can I still have my copy ?
Only if you sign a contract swearing not to let Capn' see it.

[Kedd]

Holy shit, you are going for the heart. :(

No use aiming to wound. I'm going to drive you to whiskey before the end of the year.

*insert evil laugh*

[chazbot]

Are we sure there will be enough left over to do that and give all cute girls in the greater Bay Area black eyes?

[Black Roman]

Fringe Season 2 finale. Olivia and Faux-livia are great, they do seem like two versions of the same person.

[capntightpants]

Scott Pilgrim?! X-Factor?! And you're taking Jen away from me?!

When I hit rock bottom, I will have nothing left do but train. And then I will exact my revenge on you all!!!

[capntightpants]

Has this been your plan all along? To make me into a drunken killing machine?

[Arion]

I'll PM. Left over funds will be used to buy and destroy all copies of Scott Pilgrim.

I can sign that.

[Kedd]

The black eye plan has been nixed. Instead I'll be distributing a combination of itching powders and laxatives to reduce their desirability without giving Capn a chance to be chivalrous. Nothing sexy about a woman scratching her pubes and shitting her pants.

[Slewo.O]

Maaaaaaaan I cannot wait for class to end. I'm gonna meet up with Johnny C today. :)

We better get the bus pass and our $15 deposit back from Sasha if we won't need him for administering the black eyes.

Unless he's going to be our laxative agent now.

Hah. I'm there with you on that. I wonder sometimes about having a savings account when you end up getting charged like $30 for overdrawing your checking account.
It's like...hmm... so the $2.67 I earned so far from the savings account sure didn't cover that expense.

[Kedd]

The only thing, at this point, that I like more about this newer savings account than my old, is that the new account isn't at the same back as any of my other accounts so it's not as easy to dip into it and shift movie around to various stupid things that I don't need. Saving has never been my strength

[chazbot]

I am such a meanie.

And I told you, I do drink! Do Mimosas not count?!

No. Mimosas will never count. Ever. And I refuse to give you 17 cents if you're just going to waste on nonsense. :no:

I actually am rather frugal. So usually if I put something into savings, it'll stay there. However, since upgrading from apartment living to a home, I don't really get to put much at all into savings. C'est la vie.

[Dark Sasha]

What am I doing now?

[capntightpants]

Holy crap, I just heard Best Coast's "Crazy" playing in a Payless commercial.

They've said some of the best music has been popularized through commercials. I remember liking a song in a commercial once and googling it. Lots of people asked the same thing of it.

[Black Roman]

I had my back turned from the television and I heard the song playing and thought "Did I accidentally turn on Itunes?" Then I turned and BAM, Payless commercial.


Good for Best Coast. They're great.

[Dark Sasha]

The lead singer in Best Coast is cute.

[chazbot]

What am I doing now?

Taking care of business, that's what.


The lead singer in Best Coast is cute.

Eh, it's Rilo Kiley on vacation.

Capn revels in elitism. I know Capn and I tell people that we know each other in the real world, but really when we hang out it's me and his butler holding an iPhone on speaker with Capn kind of paying attention on the other end.

Yeah, and I'm sure it's hard to hear him over the sound of the jacuzzi he's in.

[The Doctor]

Awesome!

Yeah, I got mine through trading in some games as well, ended up with a $7 credit even.
Got Force Unleashed so only left with 3 pounds credit

be honest. You stole it from some kid didn't you?
I admit nothing

[Kedd]

Yeah, and I'm sure it's hard to hear him over the sound of the jacuzzi he's in.

Sometimes it's hard to be his friend.

[Black Roman]

What if he's only HALF of a brotha?

[Kedd]

Hey, UK posters, do you guys participate in the premium bond lottery thing over there?

[Kedd]

It's ok then. But only half a glass.

Really had to cut back over the last month or so on tracking down good new music. Got some catching up to do.

Still haven't finished the last two eps of Misfits S. 2

I wonder if I'll steal someone's 5000 dollars this July.

:shifty:

[chazbot]

I wonder if I can save 5000 dollars by this July.

Hmm.... depends on what you have to give up to save that much and then what you'll spend it on.


That Onion thread is the best thing that's ever happened to me.

Perfect storm. Wish I could have read the initial post before its edit.

Heh.

Udi has actually become a lot less bothersome to me. I'd go so far as to say I like him as poster now. That thread...it is a good one.

He just added www. to the address.

If I gave up smoking (at least cut back), weekend drinking, and paying homeless people to fight, I could probably make it work.

[Jason California]

never mind.

[Kedd]

never mind.
I'm retiring from a thread that has officially gone to a place from whence no good come.

[Jason California]

How do you decide what racially, or politcally charged threads you will, or won't jump into?

[Kedd]

And now that thread is about to go fucking bananas.

How do you decide what racially, or politcally charged threads you will, or won't jump into?

Depends on how connected I feel to the information and if I feel like I have an opinion that can stand on its own strong enough to contribute to the conversation over all.

[Kedd]

I keep starting a response for that thread and then I have a moment of clarity and realize it might be better to stand back and watch for a while.

[chazbot]

Man, The Jam is so the perfect band to be listening to right now.

[chazbot]

I keep starting a response for that thread and then I have a moment of clarity and realize it might be better to stand back and watch for a while.

If it's the thread I think it is, just avoid it. Going to be a hopeless bunch of posts if you do.

[Kedd]

Yeah. It's just one of those topics that is so easily derailed into directions that rarely end well.

I totally get a kick out of sometimes being the only guy in a thread on either side that is not really angry and is just talking abut ideas.

Capn revels in elitism. I know Capn and I tell people that we know each other in the real world, but really when we hang out it's me and his butler holding an iPhone on speaker with Capn kind of paying attention on the other end.

I just wish you would put something nice on when out with my butler. It's quite embarrassing being seen with you.

[chazbot]

I find that young people look old these days.

The older I get, the harder it is for me to gauge the age of those younger than me.

When we were out to dinner on Monday, the place is BYOW, and a woman and her daughter came in to eat. The daughter looked older high school aged to me. The mom opens up a bottle of wine and pours them both a glass. And they both start drinking it no problem.
Maybe that's just their thing. Maybe the girl is older and home for spring break. Hell, maybe she's out of school. Maybe she's in high school.
I just can't tell sometimes anymore.

Jeez, I sound old.

Knew someone would go that route.

Of course it was you, on faux-rival day! Totally going to give your butler a wedgie!

[Kedd]

True story everyone: the last time Capn and I hung out with one of out other friends, I came to the meet up directly from work and told them as much. Capn looked at me and said "Oh, so they just let you wear anything to work, hunh?" I cried myself to sleep that night.

At least you didn't go to the table and make a scene about her being a horrible mother only to find out their sisters and the older on is only 25. :)

Seth Rogen as a drunken out-of-shape hero with his faithful Asian sidekick doing all the work or Seth Rogen as a dashing, in-shape superhero . . . with his Asian sidekick doing MOST of the work.




Which of these is more believable? :dunno:

I have no filter sometimes.

I especially enjoyed the Interned Japanese American World War II kids who developed powers. Would be a great concept to explore. I had a similar story that could work in tandem with it that I was thinking of submitting for the next anthology.

[MagicGamer]

Seriously, the C-gear is so cool. I "met" two people today just having my game on and the DS closed with the C-gear running. There was someone at the bus stop and then someone when I got gas (they'd played like 76 hours :shock:)


Got Pokemon White today

For free:rock:

Trade ins are awesome, also picked up Star Wars: Force Unleashed for nothing

Yay!


I didn't finish my thought last night because I was really depressed over that trip, guys. Sorry. It was a really big deal to me because of Jen's bday/grad and the long time I've been putting into planning that trip.

I just noticed in the past month, I've pretty much been in here just to sulk: about work stress, McDuffie's death, my parents in Japan, and my cancelled trip.

Don' worry bout it :)


Huh. R. Kelly said the same thing on the witness stand.

[Cactusakic]

Hey, UK posters, do you guys participate in the premium bond lottery thing over there?

I have no clue what you are talking about, so no, I guess.

You mean the National Lottery?

If so, still no.
Though I have bought a ticket on a whim maybe half a dozen times in the past 15 years.

Wasn't sure what the name of it was. Is the National Lottery the one where you don't lose the value of your initial deposit amount but you don't get interest on it?

[MayorMitch100]

I'm home!!

[JasonWGBB007]

Cactus I watched Insomnia and really enjoyed it. I have to rethink my Nolan favourites order

No.
We are talking about completely separate things.

I genuinely have no idea what it is you are talking about.

Maybe ISA's?

Sorry, can't help.

[Kedd]

Cactus I watched Insomnia and really enjoyed it. I have to rethink my Nolan favourites order

That was a good movie. Loved it. And oddly enough, during one my months long bouts with insomnia, watching it was one of the few things that could help me get to sleep :)

I had to whip up a rap out of thin air last night, and what popped out of my head was well-received, hmmmmmm, I wonder what I could come up with with some practice and some thought. :dunno:

[capntightpants]

Your cruelty is effortless and unsurpassed.

My heartlessness is what made you realize that I was perfect to become a killing machine, and now why you have chosen to push me over the edge.

[JasonWGBB007]

I can understand that. It made me drowsy. Not to say the movie put me to sleep, it didn't, I enjoyed every second. But it made me appreciate sleep more and made me realize I was running on very little of it :lol:

[Cactusakic]

Cactus I watched Insomnia and really enjoyed it. I have to rethink my Nolan favourites order

Oh, was this your first time watching it?

I must have not been paying proper attention in our previous conversations. I was under the impression Following was the only one you hadn't seen.

Glad you dug it.

I would now heavily suggest checking out the original though. Personally, i think it's the superior film, but admittedly not by much.

For the record, my ranking of his work to-date would be:

Following
Inception
Insomnia
Memento
The Dark Knight
Batman Begins















































































The Prestige.

[MayorMitch100]

I should tell this college I don't want to go to that school. They keep sending me stuff.

wow that is quite the gap.

Earlier I said mine was probably something like this
Memento
Inception
Following
The Dark Knight
The Prestige
Batman Begins

But after thinking about it more and watching Insomnia I think it's a bit closer to
Inception
Insomnia
The Dark Knight
Memento
Following
Batman Begins
The Prestige

But I really need to watch Memento again (that's why it moved down quite a bit because I realized it has been forever since I've seen it, like since before I saw Inception.

[MayorMitch100]

What school is it and are they offering you loads of money to go?

Seattle University. I don't think they're offering me that any money. I have no idea what I'm doing with all this college stuff. :lol:

[Black Roman]

Oh shit! Time to hit the battle scene!

I just need a gimmick.



In New Orleans, just being queer isn't enough, hell, there's an entire subgenre of hip-hop down here that's solely devoted to it. (wiki: Sissy Bounce.)

Perhaps Nate Dogg is singing his version of the Static Shock theme song to Dwayne McDuffie right now.

Seriously, I can't adequately put into words how much I loathe that film.
It's not entirely Nolan's fault either, it's the audience, but that's a whole other saga that I have ranted on many, many time before.

Other than Dark Knight being so high (but I know I'm in the minority round these parts on that one, for obvious reasons) I can totally get behind your revised list.

[Kedd]

My rap group's name is going to be called "The Audacity to Dope".
A guy I knew in college was writing a book and filming a documentary called "The Audacity of Dope". It was going to chronicle his struggle, as a college educated black male, to secure worth while employment and decision to become a drug dealer if i recall correctly.

Yeah that McDuffie thing is pretty fucked up.

Nah. Flipped through an issue. Looks pretty.

You should read it. It's great.

[Dark Sasha]

And Alan Moore is the crazy one!

It's was just a 10 issue mini. The trade is out so you should give it a shot. It's about $12 on amazon.

well when I get around to rewatching Memento it may just shoot back up there. I really really enjoyed the film it's just been too long to really remember where it should fall on my list.

Damn right! Load up fellas!

That's what you get for being so awesome. Make sure you're into the school you want first and set up for it. Don't want to burn any bridges too early.

I'm already buying rather little of theirs.

Seriously though, DC is fucking up.

I like how they were asked about it, and completely skipped over the question.

Should I make my art project look David Mack-esque?

Barack-etology, year three. I don't watch college hoops but make a bracket every year. Ohio State, I guess.

I'm not sure. All I know is that his artwork is great, and ASM is the best it's been in years. Slott taking over permantly has been great for this book. And the past two issues that Martin as done were the best of the bunch
