uma thurman defeats lucy liu in kill bill

Because Uma is the hero.

i mean back then bruce lee killed chuck norris...

Then Bruce died. Shit happens.

whats strange is in asian films made FOR asians, the white guys are usually the bad guys, and they die...

Last Samurai and Kill Bill weren't FOR asains. There were marketed for North American audiances. You want movies that are FOR asians, go to Asia.

And it seems that the black guy dying first in FF has nothing to do with what you're talking about.

Mrawr. Po-eh-tree. Fuck that show man. That tree was fucked.
It's free-verse. So I have no responsibility over it. sweet exoneration.

Untitled (but that's a title)

Do you promise to save us like you "saved" yourself?
Or just put us up like toys on a shelf?
Do unto others as you would do to yourself.
I guess that means you would treat us like shit too.

Turn your head and cough, just so I can make you laugh.
If this future is so great, why do we go back to the past?
If we want to slow it down, stop driving so fast.
It's too bad this will only be seen by a few.

You have to look through the glass
and ignore the stains on it.

Put things in the longview
but don't bother looking at the big picture.
It's just really depressing.

Why do we drink to forget
then struggle to remember what we did that night?
There's no point, but I'll drink to the fact that I made you think.
Too bad I'll forget in a couple of hours anyway.

Don't bother trying to get inside me.
Most women would call that rape.
I might as well too, because I don't enjoy it.
That would be a fun court case. "The people vs. The MIND RAPERS."

Another year has gone by. A year ago today, it was the same day.
No wonder I think birthdays are overrated.
I might as well just set fire to myself.
Just fucking immolate myself and everything around me.
All while singing "Happy Birthday."
Or at least trying too. I can never get the words right.

This whole thing just went from bad to worse.
I guess that's what's pretty cool about life.
It's never so bad that it can't get any worse.
I mean you could die, but then you just don't care anymore.

That was fucking sweet to write. I'll post some serious writing soon, I promise.

Morals, and being able to feel bad about things?

Just reload the movie. It should let you try and vote on it again.

The fly would move towards the windshield. It wouldn't hit it however, as the fly doesn't have a lot of mass. This means it has little momentum, so it can easily stop itself from hitting the glass, unlike you or I.

While the short answer of "yes, killing is wrong" seems to stem from the God-given commandment of "Thou shalt not kill," we must sometimes ask ourselves if it is okay to kill, sometimes. Of course I don't mean just an out-and-about shooting rampage, or some lame ICP hijinks where they pretend to kill people. I mean killing with a purpose. Killing to save a life.

Take the case of Mary and Jodie, conjoined twins. Mary had complications that forced her to live off her sister's blood supply. She was also severely handicapped. Jodie, on the other hand, was for the most part a healthy baby girl. If left conjoined, both would surely die within months. Doctors could perform surgery to seperate the two, but Mary would die, and Jodie would be almost certain to survive, and live a normal life. The sisters' parents, being apt Christians, stated that they didn't believe killing their daughter was the right thing to do, and refused the operation. The doctors took it into their own hands to try and save this girl's life, and with the courts backing their decision, went ahead with the operation. It was a success. Jodie survived, and Mary died.

Were the doctors in the right? Is it better to save one life and take another, instead of letting them both die?

Another example, set in OUTER SPACE!

On a rescue mission, you are supposed to save two people. They are in either end of the space station, sealed apart from each other during the crisis. They are slowly running out of oxygen. In order to save one, you must divert the remaining oxygen to them, therby killing the other. What would you do?

While Christians will have a terrible time with this dilema, Utilitarianists would have much less of a problem coming to a conclusion. To be utilitarianist means to solve moral problems by making the decision that will maximise overall happiness. For example, one person sees a small child eating candy. They say to themselves, "That candy looks very good, and I want to steal it. But while that would give me a small amount of happiness, the child would be devastated, and very unhappy indeed. So I will not steal the candy." That is the utilitarian way of thinking.

If you apply this way of thinking to the problems above, it seems clear that in order to get the most happiness out of the choices, some killing must be done.

It is still difficult to say whether killing to save lives is wrong o right. Say a nuclear sub has gone AWAL and is about to unload its weapons on the coastline. Millions will die unless you give the order to sink the submarine, killing its hundred-some crew of innocents.

I got a sauldering iron rammed into my eye socket, killing me instantly. It also gave my corpse a raging case of the shits, but I heard that happens to everyone who gets red-hot metal jabbed into their heads.

I'm not sure about the meaning of life, but I know trying to find out about it is a total waste of precious time.

Isn't it "Deedeedee?" I'm probably wrong, but I remember something like that. Just being picky. He would actually be cool to see in there.

I would like to see Turok in there. All his crazy yells would make for some funny moments. Maybe throw some of the dinosaurs in there too.

Probably one of the greatest devices ever concieved, the simple back-pocket wallet is the most useful thing I own. Speaking under the premise of the number of times I use it a day, of course, it gets more miles than my car, guitar, and even my computer.

It's almost unusual as to how I've grown accustomed to its presence. If it isn't there when I pick my pants up off the floor, I'll know it, and begin to panic. It's like a vital organ; I simply cannot function at all without it. I wouldn't be able to drive, ride the bus, or make any kind of transactions of any kind. I guess that would make the wallet an urban organ.

Simply a black leather wallet, there's nothing fancy about it. No decals, no logos, and NO CHAIN. Chains are a no-no. It's almost the wallet version of wrapping your face in chains. It's stupid and ugly, and serves no purpose.

I haven't done any research into the subject, but I'm going to assume most right-handed males keep their wallet in their right-side back pocket. And the opposite would be true for lefties. You're going to want to keep the wallet as distanced as possible from the main meat of your backside, or at least I do. This is why my wallet is placed as close to the center seam of my jeans as possible. It just makes it more comfortable to sit down. You notice the wallet less.

And so I end my praise to me and my ass' main companion. My helpful, quite, and dignified associate/secretary, my wallet.

As a box owner, I can honestly say both Halos blow now, and I don't know why people keep talking about them. They used to be groundbreaking and whatever other shit people said about them. But now there are so many beter games out there.

Stop talking about Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3. We know it's coming. We'll play it. Shut up.

That's the only thing Texas reminds me of.

Episode 9 >:(

I'm getting all caught up in some writing blockage again, and I haven't picked up my guitar for days. I probably need to do something stupid like dump my girlfriend or go live in my car for a couple of weeks to get the juices flowing again. We'll see.

You can't even be fucking serious.

One of the better villians of all time was of course Hannibal. The best though? The Aliens. You know, from Alien.

A-bot can't win because I don't think it's posted. And G-bot doesn't have a profile.

I found this, but it doesn't really have anything to do with the original author.

Non-violent violence

What do you say
to someone who doesn't listen?
What do you do
to get their attention?

If language connects us
why censor the one we all understand?
If we're trying to connect
why try for the damned?

They mute the gunfire
so we don't know it's happening.
Do they think we can't see the fire?
See the targets that their shooting?

Just let all go, don't pull any punches.
We all have blood inside us, let's see it.
Let's see if you can protect yourself
from what you try to save us from.

Can't handle it? Tough.
This is what goes on.
Think of it as non-violence.
We saving you from it.

Excellent. There's just nothing to try and understand.

Try an all-caps "Syndie" font. I've used it a couple of times in some sigs. It's pretty much the same.

DP hasn't even posted on the BBS for the last three days. If we don't hear from him soon, and want this to stay alive, we might have to shift responsibility to another.

And I couldn't be happier.

I got an "F" in Biology, an "F" in Info Tech, and a "did not complete" in my Composition class. Fucking sweet. It's not like I wanted to fail, I just didn't want to pass. Know what I mean Vern? I just didn't want it. When I looked at my marks I actually laughed. It was awesome. I knew I was going to fail. I just didn't realize how badly. Oh well. I'm counting this semester as a write-off. The only person that put any money or time into it was myself, so anyone who tries to bitch me out about it is getting a big 'ol mushroom stamp.

And now for the year off...

Cactaur.

Oh noes! Needle attack!

Half Life 2? Lame. It's all about the Scorched Earth, dog.

I don't. He's going to wind up chocking to death on a clay wang during the making of his next movie. I can feel it.

Dealing drugs to kids might be a fun mission, as well as getting shot.

Overall, sounds stupid. I'd play it, just to laugh at my own attempts to be black.
