  1. Polly's is certainly a weird experience. I was on the dance floor, kind of wondering wtf is going on, and the strobe lights are blaring and I have this weird girls face in my neck and I'm surrounded by big guys with dogtags around their necks just kind of smirking and nodding their heads.

    My other friends were at GoGos. What do you think of that place, DF?

  2. God this thread took forever for me to get through.

    On my first weekend here, I went out with some co-workers who I didn't know were gay to Itaewon and ended up on nearly all the places named on Homo Hill and Hooker Hill. This white girl was getting really raunchy on me, turns out she was a lesbian trying to get through me to get to the cute korean girl I was with (who is not a lesbian), and when she got denied she got infuriated and ran off (out of Polly's Kettle, where we were at). I had a Kettle to myself (this is after 4-5 drinks at one of the gay bars), and it took me about 30 minutes to stumble down the stairs of B1 and sit in front of the toilet deciding if I was going to pass out or not while my friends were dancing.

    Itaewon is kinda the shit. I wonder if after 2-3 years of being here I'll ever be as knowledgeable as you are dismal, but this thread is a damn good read and I'm pretty stoked to get around town now.

  3. This whole mission wasn't even real. They've deen dead for 200 years. Raiden is still a homo.

    You make me sad. Read mine directly above yours for a better spoiler on the same game. Raiden isn't a homo. He's a father. Snake is sterile. Raiden is the only formal element of any video game that trancends the medium and mocks the player for not doing the same.

  4. the whole thing, all the deaths, all the destruction, was a game set up to see if the people who control the governmet behind closed doors could successfully modify human behavior solely through the passage of information by various created personalities.

    The end result is that we must not let cultural memories inform how we act in situations that seem similar to those that first created our cultural memories.

  5. This thread is dumb. Okay, so he's a loser (and a nationalist bigot).

    My friend spends 8+ hours a day doing useless shit like playing EverQuest. There is a fansite and fanclub devoted to him for his quirky mods he programmed for Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight, a game that's 11 years old.

    The internet makes kings out of some people. Just let it be.

  6. There's a good reason why most browsers use Arial and Verdana - because they're some of the only fonts readable in lower sizes on all computer screens. Keep in mind a computer screen is always 72dpi, which is significantly lower than something in print, so it takes a certain degree of legibility on the fonts part to allow it to be useful at smaller sizes. Univers is perfectly readable at 7 pt. on paper, but not on a screen (in fact Univers is notoriously bad, in my experience, in dealing with screen legibility, despite being one of the most legible print fonts).

    It's also not a matter of browsers supporting more fonts, its a matter of more people having those typefaces. 99% of the time, the best way to go about it is Verdana (or Arial) for anything text, and if you want to use a different font, you need to create a graphic for it because a) chances are the people browsing won't have Sauna (amazing font) or whatever you're using, and 2) if they do have it, chances are they aren't at the same screen resolution you are, and don't have their OS set to the same font anti-aliasing setting, so to ensure the legibility you have to manually tweak the image. That way it appears the same on everyone's screen.

    Edit: Just saw Gabriel's post. That's really cool, actually.

  7. He fucked his daughter and willingly has himself brainwashed so that he forgets shes his daughter so he may continue fucking her thinking shes just some hot girl half his age.

  8. I never really understood why people got so upset over racist shit like "go back to your own country," until I started living abroad. It's one thing to hear it when you actually do have your own country, but if I were an American, in America, and some fucker told me to go back to my own country, I'd start turning skulls inside out or something.

    Never happens to me at home cause I'm whiter than wonderbread, but that's some fucked up shit to say to just some UCI kid named Dave Nguyen or something.

    Being an "outsider" of any type has its moments, but when you get into a heated discussion, it really brings out the worst in people.

    Sorry, but I had to bump this one.

    Really? Would look better without the bag or the gloves. IMO the coat looks really good, I wish she was wearing nothing but the coat and the heels.

  10. i can't breathe properly too, all the time. the bone going down the middle of my chest (right between my nipples) hurts like a bitch 24/7. but heart/lung tests come back normal. waht the fuck? any doctorz? give me online diagnosis plz?

    fg0d, it sounds like u hav a dick stuck up your nose.

    costochondritis?

  11. absolutely. and if you must, definitely don't use adobe's own updater for any of the programs.

    I (stupidly) let the adobe updater put me up to the latest versions. It hasn't crapped out on me yet so I guess I'm ok for the time being. It probably doesn't make it any better that the version of Leo I was going to install was a bootleg as well. :)

    There's my Daggers Drawn shirt..

    Unsteady in San Diego [ (619) 446-6828 ] carries (or used to) Daggers Drawn stuff, so if you give them a call, Eric, who is usually running it, may be able to answer questions about what happened to them, they're always up-to-date on the biz side of things.
