    Party elf. I decided the bad edge work was part of the charm of the avatar, so I kept it lo-fi. Let me know if you disagree. If photochoppers are afraid of xmasifying an avatar only to find out another photochopper worked on the same avatar, maybe annouce what you plan to work on...

    Season 2 is by far the shark-jumpiest. It's a little miracle that the show did not get canceled after that debacle.

    Davis Cup: Great Britain beat Belgium in the final in one of the most strange draw since the victory of Croatia over Slovakia in 2005. That said, in 2005, Slovakia (Hrbaty, Kucera, Mertinak) had to pull two major upsets against the Spain of Lopez and Verdasco and the Argentina of Coria and...

    Djokovic just had one of the best years ever, arguably the best: he won 10 of the 14 biggest titles of the year and made the final in 3 others, but you can argue that the Grand Slam years of Laver are better or that Federer's ridiculous 92 wins for 5 losses in 2006 is superior. Now, is...

    Ghost in the Shell: First Assault. GitS + Counter Strike?

    There is no respawn, so, as far as I am concerned, it is automatically better than 99% of online fps.

    That's the blackening I saw too, but that seems pretty significant and I thought it might have been unintended.

    Can they really reuse the rocket? It looks like it caught fire at the very end or was it only superficial? You can see the blacked side when they celebrate.

    The first 45 I bought: I did not even know the song, it was an impulse buy. I remember a summer holiday in Portugal where we listened a lot to a tape of Terence Trent D'Arby my brother had: It's well after the '80s that I discovered things from that ear that I still listen...

    The Knick

    My only beef with the show currently is that there might be one or two storylines too many, which results in some of them getting almost no screen time in a one hour episode. On the up side, they are all interesting, so it's not like you spend your time waiting for the couple stories that are...

    Tennis

    Well... the final ended up being a tad underwhelming. There were some great points here and there, but ultimately it boiled down to Federer not serving nor playing as well as he did in the group phase and, for my money, not playing with the best of game plan. Obviously, he wanted to avoid the...

    Tennis

    So, Nadal got demolished by Djokovic. The spaniard spent the whole match on his heels, hardly ever able to deal with Djokovic's length of shots and totally unable to read where he would hit next. Since the World N?1 played a very clean match, had a very clear game plan in mind (open Nadal's...

    Day 6 With Nadal certain to be top of his group and Ferrer certain to be out no matter what the result, the Nadal vs Ferrer match was "only" about 200 ranking points, a big stack of cash and pride. Also about professionalism and putting a good show for the crowd at the O2 arena. The crowd...

    Tennis

    The ranking mystery is solved: The criteria go like this 1) Nb of matches won 2) Nb of matches played (2-1 beats 2-0 - take that alternates!) 3) Direct confrontation if 2 players are tied and it applies. So, even if Nadal loses today he will be at 2-1 as the will the winner of the Murray vs...

    Day 5: Federer did not serve particularly well today and, as a result, found himself in a number of rallies against a very much eager Nishikori. The swiss found a way to bag the first set 7-5, cementing him at the top of the group and looked at first like he would run away with the second...

    The Huntsman: Winter's War

    This is patently false. The main problem of the first film was that it felt like it was the result of 20 rewrites by 20 different people: it was a total mess that did not know what it wanted to tell. Also, Theron going bananas as the queen is probably the worst acting she has ever done, but...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    As far as Marvel film-verse go, isn't dropping an origin story for Hydra a pretty huge chunk thing to do in the TV serie rather than in a movie? Or is that origin very well known in the Marvel comics-verse? EDIT: On a side note, I am glad that Roz was not a double agent, but, in a way, it's...

    Hodj is worse than AIDS, at least Charlie Sheen doesn't have him

    I probably got that in the part where you describe going "the shemale route" for porn as "growing out their hair, getting breast implants and putting on make up and tattoos." The blog post you linked was interesting, though it's not very clear if the stats about prostitution it presents...

    Day 4! Pretty balanced match between Nadal and Murray with, as expected, a number of rallies and ridiculous time between points. It took them an hour to complete a set than Nadal won and in the second Murray really seemed like he ran out of gas while Nadal grew in confidence. The theory is...

    Hodj is worse than AIDS, at least Charlie Sheen doesn't have him

    You explicitly stated that (without proof) and also that gay men where doing that (without proof). Why not straight men by the way since many perform in gay porn anyway? On a side note, I seriously doubt one could become a trans porn star without hormone therapy, even with implant. Maybe in...

    Hodj is worse than AIDS, at least Charlie Sheen doesn't have him

    Not to be a dick, but that was not your original claim. Your original claim was that gay men transitioned (which in hodj's world means grow hair, get fake boobs and get tattoos) to work as MtF transsexuals in the porn industry as it pays better and, once they are done, they detransition (in...
