^^What if one of us unexpectedly showed up at your house one day? How would that feel?

That would be pretty amazing, though I'd have to give ya'll my exact address otherwise you'd be trying every door in pawtucket

And I like the idea with the video chat. I could probably buy a huge, secondary monitor and a really high def webcam cheaper than I could fly to Europe

Oh wow! Halo CE's getting a remake? That's gotta be the most awesome thing I've heard all year

Oh man, I could fill this whole topic up with enemies from a Diablo II mod I play, but I'll just list the *really* annoying ones:

Skeleton Knights near the end-game that cast a curse on you, which lowers all of your stats by about 90%. Since all of your gear either has strength or dexterity requirements, this usually results in all of your gear being unequipped, which is probably the most dangerous situation you could be in.

Creatures called "Fireblood" near the end-game that eat the corpses of other enemies and spit huge fireballs at you. If you are hit by one of these, you will almost certainly die.

At the end-game, there are enemies called Steel-Crushers which charge at your character when they see you. If they hit you, they bring your HP down to 1, and you cannot heal your character for about 20 seconds afterwards. I am dead serious on this one. Don't expect to be able to handle them as a melee character.

At the end-game, there are giant magma golems that shoot giant streams of fireballs at your character. If you're caught in one of these streams, you will be constantly stunned and damaged, so you won't be able to move and will eventually die if you don't kill it some other way, or get lucky and somehow make it out of the stream.

And this is my all time personal favorite of them all. In the very last fight, there are tons of blue golems which the final boss summons. When you kill one of these golems, their corpse acts as a sort of booby trap. If you step on it, you will receive a curse that will cause you to die instantly when struck by another enemy. So although there are tons of these things on the screen, fighting them in pairs is a big no-no.

Yes, as you can see, me and my friend have a looooooot of fun with this game

There is no way I could ever get into manga. I looked up some naruto manga chapters once and I was just like lol Seriously, I have no idea how people can jump back and forth between an anime and a manga. It's like, "hmmm, I could watch this anime on a big screen with surround sound, epic battles, and a kick*** soundtrack, or I could...scroll through some pictures and read some text..."

Probably the best way to do this is to plan a day and do it over something like hamachi.

Also, I have fallen in love with new mods. Namely Wild Grass and a high res texture pack



Yes that is my cottage, it's very peaceful, except for nighttime when zombies are clawing at my windows

Sorry I forgot about this topic lol Sure I'll try and join tonight

oh man, a bunch of us should get together and play on a server would be awesome  

Thanks guys My sister has actually been getting into a lot of cake making/decorating lately, so she made me a boombox radio cake with fondant and everything It looked real awesome and tasted even awesomer

Also, since I've gotten into college and all, I have met an awesome friend. He knows so much about computers, and taught me all kinds of things. We also love to play the exact same types of games. Life has been pretty darn good

How the heck did he get up there?!

Since it's been about 5 years, I'd say my movie genre preferences have been narrowed down quite a bit. Out of all the movies I have seen, I have to say that my favorites are:

Science Fiction
Psychological Thrillers
Anime

Science fiction is a big one for me, I love movies where they explore things that are out of the bounds of real life but not so far-fetched that they could easily be disregarded. One such movie which I absolutely adored was a short, low-budget animated film called "Flatland: The Movie". I have not read the novel which it is based off of, but the movie is basically about 2-dimensional creatures living on a 2-dimensional plane known as "Flatland", whom eventually come to find out about a 3rd dimension. It was such a rare gem for me, just reading the description of the movie made me want to see it so badly. The movie explains the concepts of the spacial dimensions so well, while remaining fun to watch at the same time. It came out in 2007, but I only just found out about it a couple of weeks ago. After seeing it, I find myself thinking about this movie every day. I used to never quite understand what exactly people meant when they said the fourth dimension, but now I understand it completely, and even though we as 3rd dimensional beings are not capable of fully perceiving it, it is an awesome thing to think about.

For anybody interested, I highly recommend watching the 35 minute short called "Flatland: The Movie". There is another version of this movie just called "Flatland" that is about 90 minutes long, but it is dreadfully boring and plain. The 35 minute short is much more interesting and visually appealing.
