Don't do that to yourself.
You'll regret it.
I know I do.

Overhyped bullshit is overhyped. It's only saving grace was that Jesper Kyd made the music for it, and it seems that's not the case anymore.

Then again, feel free to try it, but please do not touch the first one, since the story of the games is crap anyway, you can easily skip it. It's tne worst one I believe.

I'm fine with that. I'm not really in it for the story. I'm more considering it for the gameplay.

Can I call you "Jaffa Cakes"?

Anyway, welcome to the forum!  I'd like to say "You'll find it to be a very friendly place," by you kind of already found that out already.  So uh... yeah.  Just plain welcome, I guess! 

In fact, I HOPE you call me that.

Thanks Joseph. I really don't mind the trolls. (Last few places I was at was full of them. I decided it's best to just humor them. It's funnier when they rage.)

Guess they're starting to pop up. I went to Gamestop today and they had one set up and ready to go. Although there weren't any demos, not even for Rayman Legends. Only the videos.

The controller is actually pretty comfortable though. It's smaller than I thought, and the screen is actually pretty good on the controller.

You should have waited to buy that Halloween candy till AFTER Halloween

I went before Halloween, because we needed it for Trick or Treaters and we're all kinda strapped for cash. And then we still ran out. If not for me and the kids I was taking around the neighborhood coming back in time to drop some of our extra, we would've been out.

You're right, there's always time to wait for a price drop. ^^

The main reason I would want the WiiU is for the Accomplishments and the "gamertag" style profile Nintendo will offer you through that service.

I'm honestly glad that with the past few Wii releases and the entire concept of the Wii U, Nintendo's trying to undo the damage they did and get back the hardcore fanbase. I mean even investing in AC3, Arkham City, and some other pretty decent looking games, that earned them some points by me.
Not to say I don't love the Wii though. I play that puppy almost all the time. But it was full of wasted potential.

So let me get this strait you get a computer from your high school that is so restricted that you can't password protect it?  Jeez what happens if it gets stolen or somehow hacked from a outside party?

You'd be surprised how well protected from hacking this thing is. It has one of those heavy-duty office grade protection softwares on it.

As for stolen? Unless someone comes into my room, unplugs the tower, monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, and wireless reciever unnoticed, and carries that all out without any kind of trace, I doubt that's gonna be an issue.

I've been using my old computer for eight years now!  I'm hoping that I can get a new one in December.

Back to things that upset us...

Groceries eat up quite a bit of one's paycheck, more than one realizes.

I dropped thirty bucks out of pocket buying Halloween candy, cereal, milk, bread, and dishwashing liquid. Shouldn't that be like a total of fifteen bucks, logically?

I had one of those student computers (I'm still using it).  I hacked the hell out of it.  Then, when it was officially mine, I reformatted it.

I still gotta send it back. It's due to be returned, I think after I graduate, or after my little brother graduates. (That and we have the school do a free tech refresh every three years, so it's gonna get sent back one way or another.)

Yep that's not an option.
Like I said, once I'm able to afford my own PC it's not gonna be a problem. I'm good with what I got right here and it is a dependable system. And considering Mirby just solved my last issue and all...

Eden of the East was crap. Wasted potential the anime.

Well alright the show was okay though it could have been better but the movies were [parasitic bomb].

[tornado fang] that series.

Yeah, I agree. Eden's premise was really good but a few episodes in it started taking a turn for the worse.
As for the movies, I refuse to watch them. I'm just going to pretend the anime itself is a closed experience.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ixion_Saga_DT

I also suggest looking at Erecpyle's chara profile there.

It wil give you a bit of an idea what kind of show Ixion is.
Though then again, if you would like to watch it, it would take away a lot from the joke.

I keep forgetting Wikipedia exists.
Actually, I kind of do want to give it a try. It actually looks better than SAO is.
Or at least I hope it doesn't have all of SAO's forced angst. Or pussy elves.

No wonder you're so retarded.

Actually that's a common misconception that homeschooled kids are unsocialized and well, retarded. I get plenty of socialization through interaction with other people in my neighborhood not to mention the frequent field trips and meetings the kids in my state have. Plus I attend a daily Taekwondo class and I have a considerable amount of friends there as well.

The more you know!

That's why you use the Menu bar, gets rid of that awful button.

And just because its a PC the school sent you (or whatever) doesn't mean you can't PASSWORD PROTECT THAT [sonic slicer].

Actually I can't. It has a modified version of Win7 that even further restricts my account rights. (In fact, I don't even have an account. It auto-logs into an account called Student). So I can't password protect it, nor can I set any kind of restrictions. The most I can do is install and uninstall things and freely browse the web.

It's a horrible pain, if the stone is big enough.  My first one sent me to the hospital overnight.  Other ones... not as bad.  They passed without incident.

As for Firefox and its memory leaks...  I haven't had too much of a problem with it.  

How often do they come around? Sorry if it's too personal or anything. I'm just curious, and considering I'll be working towards a medical degree, it is relevant to my interests.

I wouldn't have anything against Firefox if not for it's godawful interface.

I've never even heard of incognito what is it used for and why is it "bad"?  Also what is up with people getting laptops from their high school?

Incognito is a Google Chrome function that does not store history or cookies.

It's actually a desktop, not a laptop. I'm not in a brick and mortar school. I'm in an online public high school. It's basically like homeschooling except it's a recognized public school and I graduate just like any other high school student. They do send laptops but desktops are more common.

Password protect that [sonic slicer].

Aaaand it's also a computer my school sent me because I have no job nor money to purchase my own.
I'm going into college and (likely) getting a job next year. Hopefully this'll be sorted out by then and I can have [parasitic bomb] done right.

you can set plugins to work in incognito. just go to settings, click EXTENSIONS, and check the box ALLOW IN INCOGNITO

Alrighty. That was actually helpful. Thanks.

Firefox is not a piece of [parasitic bomb].
Stop using incog, seriously it makes no sense unless you're doing something like browsing e-hentai on a shared PC.

I use incognito because I have a little brother in the house who pokes through my computer constantly.

oh [parasitic bomb] incognito browsing

Fi was cool... But oh my God she was annoying as [tornado fang].

As for those Wii U Zelda rumors, I read those sometime back. I just can't stomach the idea of having dungeons that large. If they say the dungeons will take "Hours to complete", considering it took one or two hours for me to finish Lanayru Mining Facility in SS and 3-4 in TP's Water temple... Yeah I don't want to spend days in the new one's dungeons.
Although I don't plan on picking up a Wii U until it's not 300 bucks so... Yeah.

You should invest in something called ADBLOCK PLUS.

Seriously.

I would get it, but I use Incognito browsing for everything that's not Facebook or Google Search and I can't seem to get addons to work. I refuse to use that piece of [parasitic bomb] Firefox and I don't use Internet Explorer for anything other than school and other casual browsing.

I see you have met Ruri.  It's best to smile, nod, and move on.

As for what's upsetting me...  Well, I'm still grieving over the Disney-Lucasfilm buyout, and the inane rumors are not helping matters.  It's hard to look at the Essential Reader's Companion now, knowing that the possibility of a good majority of the post-RotJ EU could be squashed.  Though, I am seeing some positives about the buyout, so I'm starting to warm up to it.  Slowly, but surely.  However, I am approaching this with a degree of caution.

And as for my left kidney pain... it's intermittent now.

Good to know.

I'm a bit apprehensive about the Disney-Lucasfilm thing too. Normally I wouldn't really care, but the fact they're now working on a seventh movie worries me that they'll butcher the series. Jedi Academy Musical~

Left kidney pain? From what?

Just liking anime and manga doesn't make you a weeaboo you [Top Spin].

A weeaboo would think Japan and everything Japanese is superior to your own culture.

You don't really think that do you? Because Japan sucks.

I don't know about culture, but one or two minutes on Google taught me the following.

Japan's healthcare is better
Japanese technology is more energy efficient
Employment rates are higher
Less of a class divide
Aaaaand An 80+ percent chance of not getting an STD

By this logic, Japan > USA in those aspects.

Does that count?
