That's awful! Good thing it didn't take more than a couple of hours to get the surgury done because after 8 hours, your testies are done for... (Thanks wikipedia!)
Have you ever seen the Venture Bros episode on Testicular torsion?
I used the Java based game about 4 times until my computer stopped booting up properly. The problems caused by the virus, forced me to run a systems restore in order to fix the problem.
To be honest, Java is too old to be considered useful for game making. It's too much of a "use at your own risk" sofeware now. I say this because virus' can be downloaded through the Java script and easily by-pass most firewalls and anti-virus detection software.
It can mean two things that I know of.
1. You have some kind of food alergy that irritates your colon. Look up colitis on Wikipedia and see if any of the symptons fit what you're experiencing.
2. There might be something up with your Kidneys or Liver. There might be a build up of something that is causing a rupture of blood cells in your digestive track, that leads up to your bladder. (sometimes this is caused by cancer)
Has anyone heard about this? I was shocked when I saw the youtube footage and I don't know what to say... I always liked his comedy..but this is just too surprising.
I will work with contributing users (such as Flash authors, Audio Portal contributors, high ranking users) to give them the best names possible.
Good policy to have. I don't pity those who don't contribute to NG's who lose their handles already

They have also marketed the SHIT outta the show, watches, t-shirts, dolls, sheets! Theres always some wigger on the back of the b-line watching family gy on his video Ipod. The only redeming quality of the show is peter griffin, and he's not even that funny.
That's the beauty of American TV for you. The shows never have an established beginning, middle and end anymore. All they do is establish a gimmic and milk it until it's tired...only to start spewing out the re-runs. If you look at the 'last' episode of most shows, not one of them really makes a solid point that ties all the episodes together in order to improve what you know about socieity.
It's all pretty sad really, but that's all that's available.
About time this post was re-visited :D

Here here! PC games are where the good competition is. The console online ideas are good in theory, but if you think of it, an X-Box is a computer that you cannot upgrade.
And to answer everyone elses questions. I don't know what version of flash I have on my computer. How do I find this information?
In this case now. I need to find a way to update my flash program. The only problem is that I cannot seem to find the options that allow me to find what I want.
Does anyone have a quick link handy so I can go straight to the download page?
Many Thanks
The version problem might be what I'm looking at. Although my computer doesn't tell me that it is.
What I'm seeing when I try to open up a flash movie is a red X in the top left corner. (The broken link for non-existant images). Also, my 1-5 vote menu isn't showing up on my screen either.
YIKES!
Apparently I have mistaken/ My profile doesn't have it listed.
Count me in.
My profile has my e-mail address
Hey guys,
Has macromedia updated the flash programs? I've been having trouble viewing movies and plotting in experience points lately.
Thanks for any information.
Funny, I've never been called a noob before. This includes the times I was actually considered a noob.
Alas, my insight comes 4 hours too late.

Thoughts?
I don't think it's a good idea because you can click 'yes' once a day on your own reviews before you sign in. It is because of this, I think any sort of rating system can be abused.
I just read the Fox news thing, and I had myself a little chuckle. I don't think it's telling the whole story here, and was just written to instigate a back-lash against the problem other nations have with America.
Please keep in mind, that I'm not saying all of this out of spite. I wrote this post "whole-heartedly" in favour of rasing more of a debate on this matter.
The thing I don't like about polls and comments against polls, is they don't mention that everyone has a right to their oppinion. We cannot judge that they all don't know what they are talking about because we don't know the means they used to reach their own conclusions.
The way I see it is that America is where the money is, and there is a big debate that this article sits on. And that is; "Does America have the right to control the way other nations work because their financial lively-hoods are dependant on American markets?"
This touches on the same subject I raised in my Avero Aero post, where other countries dislike America leaned on them because they are financially dependant on American markets. I say this because a business man will say "Sure, if they need us for something now, than perhaps they can give us something back when we need it in the future...or else we'll cease to do business with them"
In the case of this article, as I've outlined below, I get the feeling that they are trying to get Americans on the side of the business man, by saying "Look what we do, and they hate us." Grr...Some journalists make me angry, thank god I'm in the movie business.
After all, most Americans don't flip over the Germans, but more than 50,000 of our troops are there to protect the Germans.
Isn't Germany the first nation to actively support America's "War on Terror?" Why pick on them?
Most Americans don't love the French, but we've been there again and again for the French.
The French are a big trading partner with Iraq because weapons are always a big seller to military controlled states.
Besides, the French helped America out during the War of Independence. Granted that France did it because England beat them out of New France in 1759 (Quebec), and an American win meant revenge against the English.
But on the same level, you can also say that America only entered WW2 and helped France because Pearl Harbour was bombed. Once that happened the Nazi-Japanese motions gave America a reason to fight.
Most Americans rail against some arrogant Europeans, but we don't mind if their favorite American is Homer Simpson.
And most Americans listen to Simon on American Idol. The funny thing about a democracy is that people have a right to their own oppinion. It's not anyones position to say that all of them are wrong because they like a cartoon character. They may like the entertainment America produces and exports to their country, but that doesn't mean they have to like what America does politically.
We're down in the polls when they don't need us. We have a remarkable way of skyrocketing in those polls when they do need us.
I don't think this guy has ever read "Under the Lions Paw"
Tell me what you guys think. I'll be on tomorrow to reply to any responses.
I don't have all my sources lying around, but this is something that have been taught in Canadian history classes. You see, it is history like this that fields hatred because it sets up the US as a nation that sits on other nations until they give up.
This happened around the 1950's. Right around the time Former Prime Minister Diefenbaker (Conservatives Party) replaced Former Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King (Liberal Party).
The Avero Areo was the first jet built in the world. It was Canadian made, engineered and tested. The American government saw the potential threat this engine was to them. Canada made something that out performs any plane engine any nation has ever created. Also, if they bought and produced the model from the Canadian company, then they could sell it to the great demand offered from most of the European countries.
So the Americans pressure Canada, by threatening trade relationships, to sell the engine. If Canada refuses, America will cease their trade relationships with Canada's industries (IE; cripple Canada's economy).
The problem in Canada was that the new Government was already under pressure from the other party members of Parliament. The Former Prime Minister King's government spent a lot to help develop the Aero's engine. Diefenbaker's conservative government was trying to cut costs, but was fielding the idea of selling copies of the Aero's engine to the great demand in Europe (IE; The selling the engine would cover the costs put into developing the Engine).
Once the American government stepped in, and started pressuring Canada to sell the engine. They forced Canada into surrendering the proto-type and ending the Aero's project.
I’ll see if I can find any web sites for anyone interested in additional information about the past situation.
argh...so...many...number....can't...function....
Everyone deals with their first time in different ways. Perhaps he thought his mother was going to be happy for him.

Nicely done. How long did it take you to find them all?
Hey FCS,
If you run a google search, you may be able to find actual out-takes from the show. One of which features Liono's voice actor swearing because he cannot pronounce a word.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Something tells me that these guys didn't like him for more than his money. It's just a gut feeling.

I've had the same name ( my real non-internet name) for 18 years now, yet almost everything I have subscined too, every school, every daycamp I have participated in, they all got my name wrong, even though I write it everywhere with clear handwritting. Arg!
And the don't always pronounce it right, but I can live with that.
It happens to the best of us Pox. Especially when you're ready to graduate. (I had to run a correction to the office here, just so my Degree didn't keep it's mis-spelling)
Sucked? Let's see you beat it (not beat in the sense of playing and winning, but in making a better flash - and I wouldn't call your single submission "Flower Penis" even worthy of comparison).
Tedious? What game isn't? The only limiting factor is your patience.
"Personally, you're glad it did"? Who cares? I don't.
Well said Newgrundling.

Hey Wade,
With all this talk about people holding onto the "Dumbass" e-mails and Reviews they receive, it leaves me wondering if there are any good e-mails you receive from Newground users.
Every actor on SNL has their specialty. Much like Jamie Fox did on "In Living Colour" when he acted as 'Wonda'. Remember? he made "I'm going to rock your world" into a famous saying.
