  1. i will no longer be playing at my nyc apt until we upgrade from time warner, their internet is pretty much unplayable for this game

    That bad? I might be getting TW when I move soon. I've played on verizon dsl and the crappy network in my dad's building w/o a hitch. I don't see how TW could be worse.

  2. Uniqlo shirts sized down fit pretty well. They are good for the business casual look because they are way too long and meant to be worn tucked IN.

    uniqlo's current oxfords are slimmer. the sleeves aren't wide. the body is slender. they're not long and great untucked. my RL oxfords are way longer. in fact I measured my size S uniqlo and the #'s are basically identical to the ToJ size S.

    personally i don't like the shortness of BoO.

    the uniqlo is only 19.50. it's a steal and a nice casual beater.

  3. started using OMA w/danger close and noob tubes and loved it. on ground war domination on scrapyard you can defend the whole map in the house at flag A. went 31-2 there and 28-1 on afghan and karachi which i suck on.

    i usually use :

    ump silenced

    magnum w/tac knife

    marathon pro

    lightweight pro

    commando pro

    i try to knife only.

  4. for around $100 price range

    seiko 5 or a citizen eco-drive?

    unsure on sizes too, as i have a smaller wrist

    the seiko is well under 100 so if the citizens cost more go w/the bargain.

    my wrist is small too but a 40-42mm watch fits perfect.

  5. I too have to Orient sub and it's alright. Cons: shitty lume but especially the bracelet feels a bit cheap. A bargain otherwise, though.

    yeah, the lume is weak. i think subs look better on bond nato straps so i'll enventually remove the bracelet. for $20-40 i could get a better bracelet too.

    i'm getting a seiko diver next.

  6. i was referring to overall stretch not elasticity. it's okay they've already shrunk to a desirable degree. and for you egpt:

    ftyg

    there's another picture on uniqlo UK. hope that helps...

    nice ubiq els.

    Do they have any of the single mens trench coats in?

    yeah. if i'm not mistaken they got new trenches in. i was there last saturday and the place is full of clothes. it's a lot to sift through.

    i picked up the stretch sateen skinny fit pants. they were 19.99 so i bought the black, dark green, and wine colors.

  7. I've had my Altec Lansing inMotion iM616's for a few weeks. They were noticeably quieter than my super.fi 3. With the super.fi's I'd usually play music w/the volume on 10 (my mp3 player goes to 40) while on the subway and 5 for home listening. With the iM616 I'd use 11-14 subway, 7 at home. Now I'm using the super.fi numbers so I guess there's a break in period.

    They're far more comfortable, go in easier, and don't protrude from my ears like super.fi's. The flange and foam tips fit and seal better than all my super.fi tips.

    Sound wise they're crisp but like the er6 that Etymotic based the im616 on, they lack bass. I'm not a bass fanatic but its noticeably weak. I listen to a lot of 70's and 80's funk so weak bass is glaringly obvious. the super.fi 3 was slightly better in this area.

    For $40 I'm happy. My only negatives are:

    -weak bass

    -non replaceable cable (if I could put the Westone cable I got for my super.fi on these they'd be near perfect. Westone cables are mandatory for super.fi users)

    I'm gonna try some pink noise burn-in and see if the sound improves.

  8. I don't want to sound like a Japanophile, but I really love J-Hip Hop, but I'm talking more of the instrumental stuff, here's a sample of what I'm talking about:

    And

    I love instrumentals.

    i got up on samon kawamura not too long ago. translations and unfold are dope albums.

    fat jon's repaint tomorrow is a great instrumental joint. i love these beats:

    i just got 2 of his older albums but haven't listened yet.

    i'm currently playing Count Bass D's L7 and Cyne's Pretty Dark Things. both are solid.

  9. i had some UE Super.fi's but the cable frayed. i replaced it w/a Westone cable but you gotta file down the pins so it fits. it's not a secure fit and when i grabbed my mp3 player the left monitor was off the cable. i can't tell if it popped off when i was out but i can't find it at home.

    i ordered the Altec Lansing inMotion iM616. it's made by Etymotic and the reviews all say it sounds better than the er6. the best part is they were $43 shipped (it's a discontinued model). i can't wait til they arrive.

  10. I have all three of those. I'm wearing the gray ones today in my waywt pic.

    yeah, i actually saw your pic when i did a search for shuron the other day. you pull them off well.

    i was gonna order the gray or the crystal but i found the sidewinders on sale so i may get them. since you have all three i take it they're good quality frames, right? do you prefer the freeway or sidewinder?
