Wat, me? Sure it's possible, both my level and the Presidential kill-switch...
I'm sure the procedure to shut down the net was figured out well before they made it law... Senators think, "Well, it'll be a few years before they get the money spent and the kinks worked out..."
The future's becoming more uncertain everyday. We placed our entire population in the hands of gas and electricity... without either one, we'll eventually starve to death.

I hope not. I'll hit Level 17 on the 31st....

In any case, how does the government plan to take down the net? Obama's already got a "interwebz kill-switch" in his office, to be used in times of "domestic" crisis...
The internet has a commercially operated infrastructure, and will do as it's told.

A few years ago IBM created a disk with crystals in it. It's like an 8-track disk... you can read the surface from different angles to get more space out of it.
Maybe with something like that, they'll go back to analog, like on the 12' Laser Disks... they looked way better than DVDs.

It's stupid to smoke. If I didn't smoke, I'd have money for scotch.
Smoking's too addictive to be any good.
Buying tobacco only supports terrorists... I mean the State and Federal authorities.
I'm sure farmers in the Southern states would rather grow other things. The amount of pesticides and other chemicals used to grow tobacco, have tainted the soil badly enough, you wouldn't want to eat what was grown there.
Foreign cigarettes are no where near as potent or as harmful, as what we have in the States.

Quit now.

So, Luis... you still looking at Coney Island, or are you waiting for the weather report, a week before the date?
Bad enough my Valentine's Day card got lost... I guess I'm entitled to a little consternation.
Plus, why the hell am I still a mod on your event webpage? I'll take pity sex, but not a no-show job title!

Stand back, I got this.
The harder the ice cream, the more ice cream you're getting (less air pumped into it). Yeah, temperature's a factor too... guess it could give it a quick nuke.
Run cold water over the spoon after every scoop, it'll cut and lubricate better at the same time. Milk rinses clean in cold water (my town's health department says so) and can be considered washed.
I was just wiki'ing milk fat earlier... haven't had any ice cream so far this year :(

"Problems of the past today"

I like to pee outside, usually on a dead spot on the lawn, in hopes it will green up.

The story's a fake.
They've been wiping their asses with citizenry.
In the words of Marie Antoinette, "Let them eat shit!"

I'm glad someone here at NG has the balls to go out at night!
Where is Hangar 84? I'm near Starland Ballroom in central Jersey; nice diversity of hardcore stuff.

Unfortunately I'm usually too poor or busy to go. Just stay at home and increase the electric bill.

In advertising, they pay people to dress-up funny to lure customers in.
The homeless should be paid by the promotional company to wear these things, not the bill-laden passerby.
Businesses that do this sort of work get paid astronomical amounts of money, and have no morality, whatsoever.
This denigrates the homeless and the wireless users into.... beggars all.
It's like corporate sponsored cow worship. You can't not go to hell for getting that signal.

I used to think rape jokes were funny.

Not so much - I've always been sensitive to other people's feelings. Plus I'd get beat if I did otherwise.

You know any good rape jokes? Technically, I was raped, but I was a willing soul... sometimes the joke's on you.

I knew a guy that became homeless and unemployed because he went to Redtube once.

Redtube, huh? Thanks.

Porn is like any tool man makes (or handles) - it's either a benefit or a hazard. It's half and half in my book.

It's like the T-shirt says, "I taught your GF that trick you like."

You know? I'm taking what I said back!
IF you applied for ad revenue sharing (list name, mailing address...), then check out your accounts page and go to "view your charts and data" at the bottom of the finance column. There it will show you what's making you money (on views and such) and on what type of content you provide.
It didn't work last time I checked, but now it does!
I have no idea how they calculate these numbers (as the weekly, monthly, yearly listings all have different totals), but if you dig a little deeper in the admin posts, I'm sure Tom or liljim have additional information on that.
If you go to creator resources in the NG wikihelp section, there they have more info as well.

At 2 hours ago, walkinator wrote: the old ones were way better. These need to be bigger and not pixelated.

Agreed.
We should have a choice of which set of level icons we want to display.
The set we're using now is quite old, and was previewed before a redesign took place (2002 or 3...).
That level 43 slimer in a laz-e-boi is hard to forget. As is the lack any creativity at the higher levels.
It looked shit then, as it does now.

Research over.

Anyone can justify creepy and dark actions by what they've seen or heard... or not at all.
Human beings foster light or darkness. The internet only validates the reality they choose.
Define the struggle on a broader level before examining further.

That's what I thought, and when I asked Tom, he said it extends to other submission pages.

It sounds fishy to me. Movies and games are Flash driven and connect to the NG API, correct? Where is the mechanism in an audio or art page?
Supposed someone clicked on an un-embedded ad while viewing a Flash movie.... I don't think that counts....
Serious? Ask liljim. I wonder what, if any, response he would give.

Well I'm glad you can afford to get it pulled or filled...
Three things I discovered: Table sugar loves to eat enamel. Use honey or granulated brown sugar as a substitute for drinks... for baking it seems okay.
After brushing, dip a Q*Tip in rubbing alcohol and clean the bad tooth and surrounding area. It won't kill you and/or blind you in very small does, and it does kill the infection better than peroxide (which you should do once a week, till the bacteria's a better breed.).
Orange or grapefruit juice kills gingivitis, so rinse with that before you go to bed.

That was a long time ago and I'm not saying, because the relationship was kinda doomed from the start anyway.

Very rare. It's usually their name or some nonsensical word if anything... they do tend to pee just as bad as the men do.
It's just more work for the poor, underpaid bastard to clean up or paint over. The more graffiti around, the lower the chances of a clean bathroom.

I was wondering when someone would say, "He's not a citizen!"
Just think of your time on the shooting range as a first step to eventual ownership...
like kids in the 1980's thought of the arcade, in time you'll be able to bring one home (if you get citizenship here).

12 years. 12 years at Newgrounds, smoking your life away as a hired geek.
Has it been worth it, all those wasted years of pandering to internet virgins?
Oh, Happy Birthday Stamper! Good show. Really.

Yeah, but there could be an age issue. Still, beats not knowing. For reference have you seen this?

Guess I'll have to settle for a definite maybe, which better than "no".
Still wish there were more "sort-by" tag searches in the site.
Guess pop-up descriptions are being spread throughout....
I just hope the stage is set for more user functionality (backgrounds, colors, themes, level icons).
Looking forward to more info on whistles, reviews (with regard to exp.), as well as other elucidations...
Thanks for getting back to me Mr. Fulp

I guess the whole point is believing in something you can't perceive.
Even when you understand how things work, there is a "random" element to all complex things.
Every time I step out the door, something's different, and that affects everything else.
This kid's been posting some interesting videos on his search for the truth.
When I was a kid, that was just considered New Age BS. I've come to realize the universe works in such a complex way, there has to be an afterlife, or a mufti-dimensional place where other non-corporeal things live.
As a farmer, I can tell you nature abhors a vacuum, and it would be wise to believe our lives don't end at death.
