Judging from that, it's probably not going to be that good of a movie. I mean, it's lower than Bush's approval rating (19%), so it can't be that good!

Oh come on, I had to make a joke like that.

Did. Those were figures of war.

Thank you!

The Large Hadron Collider actually has a lot of value in the world. With this machine, we are able to study what happened after the Universe was created.

It's funny because they said it was a way of learning about "universes" implying that there are certainly more than one, and we could learn about it from this...

Anyway, happy 100th post for me!

Response to: What do u think of anime?? Posted December 28th, 2008 in General

I'm surprised that Haruhi hasn't been mentioned much yet. Granted, I haven't seen it, but it looks fantastic! Does anyone know when and where it's on?

Response to: The hokey-pokey illegal in U.K. Posted December 27th, 2008 in Politics

You'd be surprised at the large number of ridiculous laws out there.

I heard that in Florida, it is officially illegal to bathe with clothes on. Thing is, no one cares and I guess they were just too lazy to legalize it, much less regulate it.

If it's score is 1.95, it doesn't sound overrated at all.

Response to: Tower Defence Games!!! Posted December 27th, 2008 in General

The Demonic Defence series (at least parts 3 and 4) for me, hands down. In fact, after my first viewing of DD3, I had my first thoughts of wanting to see the rest of an artist's work, which helped bring me to Newgrounds.

Now, ironically, DD3 isn't even in my top ten games!

Response to: What do u think of anime?? Posted December 27th, 2008 in General

In Japan, animation is viewed as a form of art, whereas in America, it is usually just thought of as kid's stuff, or something that isn't real. That really annoys me, because a lot of times the best movies of the year are things like Pixar movies, but people don't want to see them, because that is the western view of animation.

Response to: Fuck science. Posted December 27th, 2008 in General

Well, science is responsible for all the clean water, sanitary food, etc. in the world, so we should acknowledge it as one of the greatest things that we as humans have ever discovered. It even made the computer you are using right now.

I think it's okay, because it's a person's choice to die, and it's all about freedom in this country.

Response to: Canada to power Posted December 26th, 2008 in Politics

The funny thing about Canada is that no one knows much about its history, but we can still name a lot of celebrites from it, so we tend to treat it as a world power. The fact that it's the second biggest country in the world doesn't help.

Well, it is right after India in terms of population, so don't hold your breath.

Anyway, the weird thing is that when a lot of death happens in places like China or India, no one cares. There was a famine in the 1950's that killed like 40 million Chinese, but no one cared because there were just more Chinese.

Likewise, the worst natural disaster in history was the 1931 flooding of the Huang He river, which killed over a million Chinese. Again, no one remembers because it was the Chinese

Dang! I was so sure it was Knox!

I'im such a geek I'd actually like to know more about statistics.
I think Jamesfarr ties with Dave for the most Weekly User's Choice Awards.
I think theWeebl has the most Daily Features.
I think TheStarSyndicate has the most Review Crew Pick Awards.
And I think FatBadger has both the most Turd of the Week and most Underdog of the Week awards.

Am I right on all this?

I would buy flash player, and make my own flashes. Sadly, it's pretty expensive (for me, at least) and I'm afraid that I'd be too focused on it, as you know, I have to go to college and do stuff in the dreaded real world.

Response to: Any1 seen Disaster Movie? Posted December 26th, 2008 in General

I always thought the Scary Movie series was so bad it's good. Except for Scary Movie 2, that one really was just dumb. "Disaster Movie" "Epic Movie" etc. are simply horrible movies. DM was rated as the worst movie of all time on the Internet Movie Database. (though it's since changed) I actually saw it and was happy to report that I was the only person in the theater. It is undeniably the worst movie I have ever seen in theaters. I even went to the ticket holder and told him to warn people not to see it. I figured that I'd take one for the team.

The saddest thing was that "Epic Movie" and "Meet The Spartans" were no. 1 at the box office. Speaking of the Scary Movie, although cheesy, are still considerably better than the ones made entirely by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. In Scary Movie 4, the film opened with Dr. Phil being played by well, himself. In DM, Dr. Phil appeared and was played by some other guy. At least in SM4, they had the effort to get the actual Dr. Phil to appear. Although that was most likelly because Dr. Phil simply wouldn't want to be in it. SM4 may have been dumb, but Dr. Phil has his standards.

Response to: Kentucky Fried Cruelty Posted December 26th, 2008 in General

Yeah, I saw that video too. I'd like to point out that I think it's odd that people that are vegatarians/against killing animals can be for abortion. You're trying to tell me an animal has more potential to do something great than a human fetus does? That 's just hypocritical, in my eyes.

Granted, I'm pro-choice, and I do like meat.

One of the saddest things about that site is that even though there's only 100 movies on the worst list, they change so rapidly, so you unfortunately tend to get a higher number of bad movies that were ever on the bottom 100, than good movies that were ever on the top 250.

At 12/25/04 02:35 AM, AntiangelicAngel wrote: The politics of Christmas have gone to far, as far as banning expressions of good will on the holiday from educational and government centers. Some people believe Jesus to be the son of God, some believe him to be the Messiah, some believe him to have been crucified and risen, and some believe he will rise again. Matters of faith behind us, he taught beautiful lessons. Simmilarly, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. or President Abraham Lincoln taught wonderful lessons of equality, hope, love, forgiveness, and respect. They are celebrated, on their birthdays, across the nation in all types of institutions, but because some believe that Jesus is Lord, we cannot celebrate his birth in those settings.

Wow, that was good. I guess atheists can celebrate Christmas, because a lot of them acknolwedge Jesus as a great teacher and a historical figure. Thank you for these wonderful thoughts, and Merry Christmas.

Response to: Fuck Christmas Posted December 25th, 2008 in General

I understand the notion of Christmas being a secular holiday, which is why some atheists celebrate it. My question is, why don't you celebrate Hanukkah? Why don't you celebrate Islamic holidays? If the notion is that all religions are equally bad, why are you picking favorites? Imagine all the jealousy it will cause in non-Christian theists. I mean, how do you think they feel that the Christian holiday is celebrated by atheists, but their holidays aren't?
