"Kürsch". Umlauts are very important! ;)
If you've got one in your name, damn straight... PIMP THAT UMLAUT!
No, my name doesn't contain umlauts.
... Okay, I think something about my post was lost in your translation of it, sir. #;-}>
By "you," I wasn't referring to YOU specifically, that was the "general you," as in "If ONE (anyone) has an umlaut in their name, then damn straight, they should totally show off that bad-ass umlaut, it kicks ass!"
You see, I was complimenting that musician's name that you guys are talking about, and also joining you in slyly joking with Bahamut (I believe it was he who left the umlaut off in the first place, at least?).
.... so anyway, nothing to do with you, so... O_o
But they are still very important, because "ü" sounds different from "u". I don't think the english language has any "ü"-sound in it, but I can give an example with 'ä' and 'a':
'ä' sounds a lot like the 'a' in words like "can", "fan" or "Stan".
'a' sounds like the 'a' in "father"
If you don't know how to type an umlaut you can always put an 'e' right after the letter you want to make an umlaut out of. So 'ae' is the same as 'ä', 'oe' is the same as 'ö' and so on...
Ok, enough with languange-lessons now!
Well, you gave me a technical linguistics lesson, and I gave you a bit of a "subtle meanings hiding behind casual English semantics" lesson up there, so we're all even now. #;-}>
GO ME!
The '3' is one of my favorite numbers besides the '13' which is my top favorite ^^.
My gf loves 13, too. She was born on the 13th of September, so that may have something to do with it.
Do you like it because so many hate it, or do you have a personal reason like she does to like it?

I know, but I was too lazy to type out the alt code for ü.
YOU RAT BASTARD! :::slaps you with a dainty upper-class glove of sorts:::

I posted on 1/31, 2/1, 2/2, 2/3, 2/4, 2/5, 2/6, 2/7, 2/8, and in the past few hours 2/9 as well. That's a TEN DAY POSTING STREAK. I probably haven't done that in years.
WOW, THAT'S AWESOME! :D It's great to see you posting so much recently.
I know, it's great to see me posting so much recently, too! :::turns away from the huge mirror sitting next to himself on the couch and looks back at the laptop screen:::
TRIPPEH!
The gfox 10k experiment is going to come to a close far faster than even the most overestimatey of us may have predicted.
Excellent news, and yes, I did overestimate the amount of time you'd get to 10k posts at first. Now I think you'll get there in mid-March, or maybe early-March. :)
I'm aiming for by early-March now, yes.
Why? Lots of badass things happening then.
A) Super Smash Bros Brawl is released (can't remember the exact date, but I think it's around 3/4)
B) My sister's 27th birthday on 3/8
C) The Texas Democratic Primary on Tuesday 3/4
And probably more I could list. So why not add 10k posts to the fun that week? I think I shall! Probably on Saturday 3/8, in fact. HAPPY B-DAY, SIS!
Like I said, someone else wants to do that? Okay. Not I.
Fair enough gfox. :)
THANK YOU.
Now, you can all silently hope I have a stroke that causes me to be loopy and go ahead and make the final update the way you guys not-so-secretly want me to, but that's about what it's going to take. That... or BRIBERY. Hint hint, wink wink. #;-}>
I'll combine them. When someone reaches 10k audio reviews, I'd then think about splitting the reviews up.
That's an idea, sure. SEXALIST!
Hell, why not just add that as a new stat from the get-go. Remember how I wanted anyone who succeeds my list to make it different enough that they're not just doing the same old same old? Well, a 6th column with audio portal reviews would CERTAINLY qualify right off the bat as a big difference.
I don't remember the ep titles most of the time, but I guess so.
I know the titles very well after looking at the DVD boxes to see which episode is where.
My gf and I were watching the eps in order from the DVDs, so that still didn't really teach us the titles to most of 'em, we were kinda just watching it as though we were watching a marathon on TV.
But anyway, during our move, the current DVD we were on (Which was in one of our DVD players) got misplaced somewhere. I'm sure it's not lost forever (it probably got placed inside another DVD case besides the Futurama one where it should have been), but... can't find it. So can't resume watching Futurama from where we left off last summer/fall. ;_;
10TH! no... 11TH! As of this post, first post on 2/10/08 for me.
Oh, now this has been fucked up. :S
And if I post after NG midnight tonight, or else post tomorrow evening.... 12 DAYS IN A ROW. HOLY SHIT.
And then on Thursday night/Friday morning, I replied JUST to LUL to make up for that.
I noticed that, lol.
Why teh LOL at teh LULZ? #;-}>
I meant to post some last night, but I didn't get around to it due to GH3. However, I've still technically posted every day for 11 straight days now, NG-time wise. #;-}>
NG and GMT time zones are confusing me right now. :S
Whysofor? They're always around 5-6 hours apart, aren't they?
NG time = always 1 hour faster than my time, so I guess it's super-easy for me. Next best thing to actually being in NG time itself. #;-}>
Nope, I don't have that sort of powers. Besides, I'm better off working on flash rather than making hundreds of posts on the BBS.
Yes, a much more enlightened creative pursuit, certainly.
There's a 4CD Cannibal Corpse greatest hits album. And I'm pretty sure every song on it sounds the same. XD
ROTFL!
So there you go. If DragonForce restrains themselves to 1 or 2 discs at most, they'll already be ahead of the game, and far from the worst ever "decision to put out a greatest hits" disaster, at least. #;-}>
It'll be down to 200 by the end of this weekend, mark my words.
You've made 30 posts last night? :O The last time I was able to make that much in one day was back in 2006.
No, I made 30 posts between Friday and Saturday. And I'm making 14 more tonight. I stopped at 9786 last night, and I'm gonna stop at 9800 tonight. OR WILL I?
GOOD MORROW TO YOU!
Good afternoon/evening.
GOOD MORROW AGAIN!
Here's the damn picture, Coop.
EAT IT, COOP! HE'S YOU, BITCH!
