Please, I still make unwarranted swats at Tom Cruise's sexuality, especially now that he HAS (allegedly) knocked up Katie Holmes =P
Man, Grandia 3 is not being kind to Photon >_<;; I don't know where anyone got off saying it's en easy game. Because of the tweaks in the battle system (which is the best battle system in any RPG period), Grandia 3 is the most challenging out of the whole series, I think. Although Xorn left a lot to be desired for a final boss.
Some country does grate on my nerves, but not a lot of it. I grew up in a family absolutely rife with music; in fact, Music is my family's surname. My uncle Rush plays country music and my mother was really into it, specifically Garth Brooks, so I think I have a semi-immunity.
As for the connection light, KoolKoal, you might wanna ask whoever controls that computer about any blockers that might be on your computer... otherwise I dunno what to say...
The problem is, that my parents don't want me to know anything about the insides of our computer. They soooo worried I'll find a way across the fire wall and look at porn. Plus I don't think they'd really know whats blocking it for sure.
Quote from PurpleD »
[quote=Koolkoal]lol, what did purpleD say to this question?
Marijuana should be legalised. Agree or Disagree?
Whoa, Reaching waaaaay back here...
I think it should be legal. Hell, It's less harmful (health-wise) than cigarettes and impairs you less than Alchohol! As long as there are regulations and appropriate rules regarding it, there's no reason it should be illegal.
Not that i do it or anything[/quote]
Reaching farther back. I was mostly talking about Marijuana being legal in canada.

I'll bet you wish you had a non-unglued/unhinged card that shared your first name.
Marijuana legal? Sure, why not. My problem with it being legalized, though, is if the companies that make cigarettes start making marijuana products, they'll make additives to them. It's being legalized everywhere else in the Western world, and of course being the regressives that Americans are, our government isn't budging.
My only problem with the legalization of marijuana is the long-term effects of THC on the body. It causes short-term memory loss, lack of focus and concentration, slowed metabolism, et cetera. I've seen the effects on a person for myself, since I grew up in a household heavy with drug use and sale, so yeah. I think that marijuana should be legalized, really, but only after stringent laws have been passed concerning a legal amount of consumption. Either that or breed a type or marijuana that isn't so eventually toxic.
Hey Photon- I was restricted by character coutn so its not up yet but I saved it, and sent it to myself so i'm gonna have Ryan look at it and we'll see what's going on, and maybe i'm doing it wrong....
Goin' to Ryan's now... Love you all!!!
Love,
Omna
What does that mean? You mean you couldn't post it? That's odd...

@Mr. Stuff: First of all, a belated welcome since I wasn't around to offer one before. Do you happen to like Ein from Cowboy Bebop? He's my favorite anime puppy ^__^;;
Also, about country music, I do admit to listening to a little bit. My musical tastes are more eclectic than anyone I know, after all. I mostly listen to female artists like Martina McBride, The Kinleys, stuff like that. I LOVE Jo Dee Messina, though. She's mah girl.
Yay, I'm not alone! I was actually gonna put Ein in my banner, but I couldn't find room and I would have had to cut him out in paint (a tedious job to say the least).
Quote from Edit: PurpleD (sorry Koolkoal) »

Actually, marijuana contains more carcinogens than cigarettes do. I think both should be banned, to tell the truth, but hey, that's just me.
And lastly, I finished my new and improved card (now with 50% less clutter!):
Mr. Stuff that wasn't me it was PurpleD. EDIT: Thanks mr stuff.
I don't have a personal opinion about marijuana... I won't use it if it is legalised. I haven't bothered researching it because the government shows no signs of looking at the issue here.
Yay, I'm not alone! I was actually gonna put Ein in my banner, but I couldn't find room and I would have had to cut him out in paint (a tedious job to say the least).
Hehe, yeah. Ein's fuzzy butt tends to get in the way of everything =P
Very nice card, Mr. Stuff! I guess I get +1/+2, then, so w00t!
Man, I wanna card now. Trouble is, I dunno what colors I'd be. Probably G/R, which is funny because I never play that combo.
oooooh! I just saw cheaty face stories!!!!! A contender for my favorite card ever. In the final game of the local Unhinged release tournement, I played Cheaty face under a land in the second turn. We ended up getting to a point where I was at 2 and he was at 4. I had carnivorus death parrot out and that was "it" my opponent attacked with 3 1/1 flyer's thinking he won, then I took out cheaty face, and won the game. The whole store was watching and they all thought it was ****ing hilarious that I had that hidden it for so long.
Also that guy was a huge jerk and deserved to be taken down a peg.

@ KoolKoal: LOL, that was nicely done!
I have fond memories of the Unhinged PreRelease tournaments
I just finished up exercising and showering, and I feel great! *Sips tea* Love the card, Mr. Stuff. I played Magic at my high school, regularly. I had friends in the school who I could play with after school. I hope there are people at my college who play, but if there aren't I don't mind. There are two card shops in the Lehigh Valley (where my college is) that have FNM.
@ KoolKoal: Hmmm... The '- J.' would add to the flavor of the card, non? Yet, if I added an extra line of text, I feel that the text box would get a little crowded...
Instead, how's this?

This just in: The Dutch have lost to Portugal in the World Cup!
Yeah, I didn't see much of the Netherlands-Portugal game, but I did hear that there were 16 cards given out. Portugal'll have quite the time against England.
*Sips tea* Tomorrow I have my computer checked out. My dad thinks it's slow because of viruses and crap. But I have to set my cursors to default. What can I say, I love my Earthbound and Kirby cursors. When I get my computer back I'll recustomize my cursors.

Something like that, yes. Four red ones, if I'm correct
Good luck with your computer, I hope there won't be any viruses on it...
* Janus keeps his fingers crossed
Also, Earthbound and Kirby cursors? Where did you get those, if I may ask?
@ All: I'm off to bed Good luck, good night, good bye!
This week's regular is Arguas2617, also known as Ryan. Anyone who has been in the Coffeehouse for more 30 seconds will recognize him, I'm sure.
Ryan (who, for the record, prefers to be called Arguas) has a rather unusual history behind his screen name. The name Arguas came to be when his last name was misinterpreted by the brother of an ex as Waters, granting him the nickname Sir Aguas- which eventually evolved into Arguas after borrowing the R from his first name. The numbers indicate to numbers that are a radius of 2 apart, and then the following numbers are a radius of 3 apart, forming a ring. The name Arguas is one he uses everywhere, particularly in anything fantasy.
He came here to MTGS in January, looking for a better alternative than Magic-League to find support for his own set, Sanctuaries. Aside from the Coffeehouse, R&D is his clan of choice, followed by the Azorius Senate- as a lover of the UW combination and card design, this was probably inevitable.
His favorite cards are those of the Johnny variety, particularly Angels. As a deckbuilder, he says he hopes to someday build an Angel deck that actually works (aside: You and me both, buster). His favorite card is Iridescent Angel, a natural fit as the only UW angel in the game.
In a revelation that will surely shock you all, Ryan's favorite deck is UW Control. He says he loves being able to manipulate the game in his favor, and he has a natural perclevity to play defensively.
His other hobbies include hanging out with his girlfriend Danica (Omna15 to those who have been living under a rock the past 1000+ pages), habing out with other friends, posting in the Coffeehouse, and being an active part of his community and church.
He says his favorite part of the House is the role he plays in it, and how fulfilling it is to watch his girlfriend's clan thrive (although, to be totally technical, I believe it was the younger sister of that mysterious but beautiful exchange student, SapphireTri, who actually first suggested the idea of an overclan).
At this point, Ryan goes on to share that he is an introvert, and then there is a paragraph about me. I can only assume he is trying to kiss my ass enough to spare himself from the looming shadow of my righteous wrath in my forum RP, Rise, in which he is a member. He also shares that he is a computer science major, but has been told many times that he would make a good psychologist, because of his knack for listening and ability to perceive what people really mean when they say things.
He claims although he finds the turkey drumsticks to be an amusing novelty, his favorite item to order is the BLT. He also likes vanilla Coke and Kristina's cookies.
He hopes to someday become a video game designer, a dream I once shared with him as well. He has a rather romantic opinion of the game industry I find to be refreshing and encouraging- in his own words: "I hope to design video games that keep people smiling as technology becomes more and more advanced."
His list of current projects is somewhat intimidating (well, not intimidating to me. I'm only intimidated by babies with superpowers and efficiently costed white removal)- He currently is working on his own set, Sanctuaries, but is also part of R&D's Jupiter block design. He is working on a tabletop RP system, OGS, and is working on his own CCG, Armageddon. To top that list, he is also working ona draft program for custom sets in Java.
Naturally, he claims his favorite person is Omna15, for reasons I think are painfully obvious. But he also has become close friends with Alacar Leoricar, Yukora, Mamelon, and myself.
So that's it, guys. Thumbs up for Arguas, our member of the week!
Wow. My name's Josh too. That's what three of us? Wow. It is a small world.
Hey, wow, you know, that's the weirdest thing - my name is... Andy... too. *Drat*
Thanks everyone for the compliments on the card. I had no idea I'd be that good at working with graphics, but I've impressed even myself with some of the stuff I've done lately. The only real graphics editing work I've done before is for the website in my sig, although I have worked with video before, making video collages for the anime club. I also created this amv: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJsJQcBwWWk
However, my card and banner are the first really involved static graphics work that I've done, and I'm really pleased with how they came out. I guess you never know until you try.
Wow. My name's Josh too. That's what three of us? Wow. It is a small world.
* Patron of the Nerds becomes claustrophobic.
My name is JOSHUA, not Josh. Just for the record.
Interesting tidbit about me: I have a thing for guys named Josh. In high school, just about every guy I had a crush on was named Josh. Furthermore, I can see a guy and think he is totally average looking, but find out his name is Josh and suddenly see him differently.
And then there is always my boyfriend, the hottest Josh I know.
P.S. Did anyone else just see the Coldsnap commercial on Adult Swim?

Aww, thats sweet. I didn't think she'd do something like that.
*Stops standing at door and sits down*
I'd like a chocolate milk right now. I'm really thirsty.
It's weird, wanting to talk to people about what happened 5 days ago, cuz I don't know if they're over it or not.
The sweetest part of it is that she was inducted Saturday night. Thank's for the notice, man:D
@ Arguas: Hmmm... Some shades do, certainly. Why do you ask?
By the way, thanks for the OJ and the cake
* Janus raises his glass to Arguas and sips his OJ
@ Omna: It's not that big an issue, so don't worry about it
@ Photon Eater: I bow to your wisdom and mad skillzz. Truly.
@ Alacar: Thank you sir! I hope you like what I've designed
By the way, I like the Castle Imitation song. It somehow reminded me of the Beatles
