One of my brother's friends did this and it was awesome.

Imagine a kids series that is about capitalism.

Sarah has a cookie. Peter wants a cookie too. "Can you give me a piece of your cookie?" asks Peter. "Fuck off, you lazy bum. Go earn your own cookie." replies Sarah.

More like Sarah's mom makes the cookies and when Peter's mom tries to make cookies too, Sarah's mom buys Peter's mom out and becomes the sole producer of cookies in the state.

A couple of years ago, there was a Flash "artist" who stole a 6-part series from a site I never bothered to track down along with some fad Flash from other countries, and it was glaringly obvious that it was all stolen (the info given was all wrong and credit was given where it wasn't due).

If they were stolen, somebody would have discovered by now. Namely, the flash artist. They all were front paged, so it obviously wouldn't have escaped his attention if they were stolen.

I've seen stolen Flash make the front page before.
There was one a while back (it has since been rightfully deleted) that was in Chinese and watermarked from a Chinese Web site but the upload information was all in Spanish. It had a score of 4.29/5 when it was deleted. Here is its eulogy.

Can you verify that it's legit?

Considering the person who released it has several games from the same series that have won awards, I'm assuming it's not stolen.

They could all have been stolen from the same site.

What is this, 2002?
Everyone knows that Jerry Falwell was a giant windbag who just liked to say sensational, hateful things about pop culture to turn his followers against the mainstream. Frankly, he deserved that Hustler ad.

the one that claimed he had sex with his mother in an outhouse

Also, I might note that this was the same Jerry Falwell that claimed 9/11 was God's punishment for feminists, gays and liberals. His credibility sank after that and he died in relative obscurity.

Oops, did I say "scientists"?
I meant to say "politicians."
It boggles my mind when politicians, especially right-wingers, rant and rave about how abortion is a cruel, heartless practice but at the same time they advocate mandatory medical interventions from birth and militaristic discipline in schools. I can safely say that in our society, even convicted criminals have more rights than children do.

My cervix is bleeding

I think I know why this was flagged: it appears stolen.
Can you verify that it's legit? Considering the lack of information on the uploader's userpage, it is possible that the movie was flagged because it had been stolen from another site. I've been through Hell and back on this issue, so I know (somewhat) what I'm doing.

First off, why did you post this here? Did Pox ban you from the Politics forum or something?
Second, I find it hypocritical that scientists think an unborn fetus has rights but a full-term newborn does not. If they're going to bitch and moan about the rights of the unborn child, they're going to have to carry some of those rights over after birth. Until they do, ABORTIONS FOR EVERYBODY!!!

it's the only fitting compromise

Go watch Azumanga Daioh, it's like Lucky Star, but actually good.

I didn't like it very much. There was never any plot; all it was about was the girls fighting about petty things.
The only part I enjoyed was Mr. Kimura's antics.

Why, because any attempt to acquire such anime outside of watching it on television in Japan would be, gasp, illegal.

Uh, Crunchyroll has it, so we're somewhat absolved from any pornography charges for watching it.

Did they tack something else on that disables the workaround or something?

Holy shit. This kid destroyed his mom's vag.

In his case, her vag most likely wasn't touch, as most doctors will arbitrarily perform C-sections if the baby is over 8 pounds or so.

We would like that people could add a bit of info on them, info that is not on their user pages.

Definitely. I considered soliciting the articles' subjects for info via PMs a while back, but I've been hesitant to do so. Should I go ahead and ask around?

Now to iron out a separate problem: I can't craft! When I try to craft something, it'll say ti failed to connect to the server but my materials will still disappear. Is Valve trying to punish me for something, or has anyone else experienced this?

Problem solved: my brother (Beezlebob181) reassured me I'd get the items as drops when I play next.
Here's my backpack for anyone who wants to see it.

Since I downloaded the Mann-conomy update today, I can no longer play TF2. The boot application just crashes after the Valve logo screen. Has anyone else had this problem?

Playing on a Mac? Found a solution from steam forums:

If you are experiencing the crash at launch in TF2 or CSS on OS X 10.5.8 systems, add this to your launch options panel by right-clicking or control-clicking the game title in the game library listing and visiting the "Properties" panel, then clicking the launch-options button. In that text field add this item:

+gl_texclientstorage 0

and dismiss the dialog.

This disables an engine change that was made to speed up game loading and reduce memory usage, but it doesn't work correctly on all 10.5.8 systems. This is a temporary workaround until we adjust the engine code to avoid this conflict and ship the update.

OK, that worked.

I know for sure the Britney Spears pics were real because they made the mainstream news, but everything else there looked obviously fake.

I'm chalking up a Wikigrounds page for him right now. If anyone has any info they think I should know, feel free to PM me.

I'm actually very much in favor of cheating methods for personal use (since I'll be damned if I spend three hours trying to find a female, Modest-natured Ralts with Trace ever again), but considering that TM's don't break anymore (or so I hear?), it's not really hard to have a bunch of good Pokemon with good movesets anymore. It doesn't really matter for those who only cheated to stop wasting absurd amounts of time or farm TM's from friends, since just cheating to make a Pokemon appear where it's supposed to shouldn't be detectable, and there's no longer any need to farm TM's. This should only effect those who are assholes and mod stats to the max or teach illegal moves and shit.

I see your point and have to agree with you there.
But that still doesn't change the fact that Nintendo is putting everyone else in double jeopardy because many of us have been forced to use Action Replay codes to get our hands on legendary Pokémon. They only hold one event per Pokémon per generation and only a select few people ever follow through, since most of us have outside lives to conduct and/or geographic restrictions.

If anyone makes any snotty remarks such as "You're just pissy because you didn't get any. PWND" or "You snooze, you lose", there will be hell to pay. Just so you know I was lucky enough to get a legitimate Manaphy not too long ago.

Also, Serebii has put the B/W images back on, but only on their Pokedex thus far. For example, Nightclub-Gardie.

I fucking want that.

Not sure why the change of heart, but remember, if they remove them again, there are alternatives.

I told you, it's a power play. They're just throwing their legal weight around because they can, not because there's any applicable reasoning behind it.

To all who train and attain their Pokemon legitamitely without use of Action Replay or PokeSav, Nintendo is placing WiFi bans on those who create their Pokemon on hacks should they get caught. I think this only counts for fifth generation though. I'm not too sure if they're monitoring DPPtHGSS, but they could be.

Here are some tweets.

How the fuck is this "good" news?
First they force all the fansites to take down their images, and now this!
Everyone knows it's impossible to complete one's Pokédex without Mew, Celebi and a whole other shitload of event-only Pokémon! If they're going to uphold this restriction, they're going to have to implement an alternate means of obtaining these Pokémon or hold more events more often.
If not, we'll have no choice other than to hold protests. Anyone up for organizing one?

I think guys should have haircuts that suit the shape of their heads and faces, like we girls are expected to have. I personally don't care for super-short hair on guys, and most guys with long hair are either nerds or douchebags, or sometimes both.

Also afros are a no-go unless you're black.

Hi, I haven't posted in a while.
My current most-played-as class is Medic, with Heavy still in second place while Engineer has surpassed Sniper in third. I have the most points with Demoman only because I played on an empty payload server one day and captured all the points myself. I hardly use Soldier, Demoman or Scout anymore because they're too inefficient. I have been playing as Pyro more, however.
I'm currently trying to expand my hat collection via smelting excess drops and crafting. Any blueprints you think I should know?
