Hawking's book makes it pretty clear that he felt that energy was being shed from beyond the event horizon in black holes, though the concept of it made him uncomfortable with the ramifications. The whole Dark Energy thing is just a place holder until they figure out why large scale motion in...

PS- Paid to see it twice on back to back nights at the Cinopolis. Will buy the blue ray the day it comes out.

Yeah, the home setup is awesome and all, but why lay down all that fucking money and then use it to watch shitty torrent rips off of the internet?

At LachiusTZ: What you are hypothesizing really disconnects the object from all interaction with the rest of the universe. Gravity is one of those all pervasive things. I have read sci-fi books that have used similar concepts for how to get around the light speed barrier for story telling...

I think 2 games being the actual punishment is what all reasonable people (i.e. not Pats fans or haters) expected and predicted in this thread. The only reason he got busted at all was because of the cover up. If he had just owned up to it, a lot of other high profile QBs already had his back...

This is pretty much it, at least subconsciously, for people like Keg and Dumar. That and trust issues. Its also a double standard, because I am pretty sure when Keg is done bagging swamp donkeys and hairy middle eastern women he does not want his record of priors up for analysis to any future...

Good luck.

Guess I should clarify but what I meant was win a few games no one expects them to win, but always be a decent O-Line away from vying for the division title.

I actually liked the 49ers under Harbaugh, even though they made fools out of my team. I really want Seattle to have to work to win that division, instead of getting a Pats style free pass to top seed. But the reality is that this is a team with some of the most massive roster turnover ever...

Fuck, so many people I want to + Net for the last five pages of comedy, but it won't let me. Who do I neg again for that?

This is true.

Hodj can we get amod to spin this eugentics/evo psyche derail off into its own general thread? As a german, I have a soft spot for eugenics and am actually enjoying the discussion about it, but it doesn't belong in this thread. Edit: maybe the last three pages could be moved into the...

This was basically Pacific Rim Job with a pre-established IP and better actors, which is really the difference in the take of the two movies at the box office. If all you want to see are dino battles, its money well spent (and is better than the prior JP movies on that level), but going into it...

The only thing that scares me about him is the fact that he is a teacher. I figured he had next to no chance of damaging the gene pool directly, but he can still work hard at honing the next generation of blood belching vagina men.

Dude, you are the one that is hanging on to butthurt from Furor banning you back two forums ago.

Point of order #1- Dumar was specifically to refrain from posting RP horseshit in the MatPoD thread in the grown up forum, as noted. His posting here is not a violation of that warning. Point of order #2- The rest of us are under no special obligation to restrain ourselves from pointing...

Not sure if you are referring to me, but I was actually complimenting the posts since I cant add more rep. You have made some solid zingers and had good observations the last couple posts.

@Sutekh- Last two posts were both at a Michael Jordan level, bravo. @JT- You clearly want to date this woman and are experiencing stress due to trying to deny it to yourself. I am going to go with the group here and say make a play, assuming everything you have said is accurate. Either...

Co-op has its place. Your penis did not get any smaller just because some dude got help on the Smelter with his mele only character. Also, team farm runs at the dragon temple were the most enjoyable way to grind in the entire game. Frankly, it also helped replay value and cut down on...

Compared to DS2? Not a chance. DS2, you put a mark down if you want to help and other person clicks the mark if they want the help. Compare that to the convoluted shit you have to do to get any co-op going in BB....

San Fran is going to be a hard place to form serious traditional relationships. I have a lot of friends up there and they all say the same thing. Its a great place to get casual sex, but a nightmare for building traditional relationships. Lots of drunken nerds abound if you are just looking...

@Iannis- Largely agree, but there is a wide gulf of platonic affection that comes before "be my personal man pillow" and its important to maintain some boundaries. At least if you want an actual friendship of equals as opposed to this friend-zoned pal who gets jerked around because she let you...

Am I a white knight or misogynist? Because you have called me both at various times. At my age, when friends ask me over that late at night, its either a pre-planned activity or some form of emergency/issue where a friend needs a sounding board. But I know stuff is different when you are...

Co-op is fun and a lot more entertaining way to farm souls than just re-plowing levels. Plus a lot of the better encounters in the DS2 DLC revolved around aspects of co-op, including the final Ice King fight.

Yeah, friendzoned for sure and plus one to everything Srathor said. I think the fact that she is snapping her fingers and you are skipping over to hang out and fulfill her emotional needs at 10pm on a weekday pretty much should tell you all you need to know. Mainly, deep down you don't want...

I was actually going to suggest you as a better source of advice, here. All kidding aside, you'd fit right in there.

Bay area is both a massive laid back area, when it comes to the concepts of relationships, and a den of crazy. You cannot really apply any known relationship rules to people from the Bay Area, for better or worse.

Hating classical music is a perfectly valid reason to not like it.

I think there is some knees too sharp action in this thread and I know audiophiles love to hate on stuff (nature of the culture), but my experience with all Muse albums has been the same. Initial impressions end up being meh, then a couple months in the shit gets stuck in your brain. I do...

There is something to be said for the more sporting nature of the table top community, too. Less murderball, more roster building, and people are civil. Every online league I have ever attempted has instantly degenerated into XP farms and murderball in under a season. The RR League was as...

Agree there. As much as people bagged on it, FF12 was arguably the best party AI around, if you customized it correctly. Both of these games the AI is terribly, even when heavily customized.

Big arms, pronounced male facial features, adams apple.....

I feel the opposite, but I totally understand someone preferring W3 (which is essentially a much better version of Kindoms of Amalur) if the party mechanics of DA:I were not a major draw for it. Both games are so good that it is really a matter of ones personal preferences as to which you would...

The trick is they are all crazy, it is just a matter of degrees. The trick is to find a manageable level, just like more mature women will try and find a manageable level of asshole. But yeah, the actual credo is to never sleep with anyone crazier than yourself. Re JT's situation- It is a...

Early on, it REALLY sucked. Before you get Ludwigs and just faceroll/oneshot everything, some bosses present serious learning curves that burn up your stock. Once Hyperion Gaol opens up, then yeah full restock and some bonus mats in under 15 minutes. Its still tedious and there is no reason...

Point 1- I completed the entire game, minus the chalice stuff from Izl (sp?) Root onward. Once I got Ludwigs, all I did was mash R1 most of the time and no boss (aside from Martyr) took more than three attempts to beat. If it wasn't in a Depth 4+ Chalice dungeon, it ceased being difficult...

There were a lot of songs I really liked on 2nd Law, but a lot of ones I did not care for as well (more than normal). So far, I am liking this one, but the only songs that jumped out at me have been Handler and Drones thus far. I hope they let the bass player do a couple on this album again...

Part of it is that they don't chain release albums and they are amazing live. They really a lot like Queen was in their heyday.

MOO2 was really easy to break with certain custom race builds (or just being a race that had certain talents). Creative and Telepathic were so unbalanced. I would like to see them scale those back a tad and make the top difficulty somewhat winnable by less optimized races. Also, dial back the...
