    Quote from PriestsofGix
    Not only does Jesus play magic, he takes no mana burn and can sideboard in game 1 after finding out what you're playing with his wallhack.


    Not only that but he plays "Wrath of Dad"

    "Full genetic sequencing of two viruses isolated from cases in this cluster has been completed by WHO H5 reference laboratories in Hong Kong and the USA. Sequencing of all eight gene segments found no evidence of genetic reassortment with human or pig influenza viruses and no evidence of significant mutations. The viruses showed no mutations associated with resistance to the neuraminidase inhibitors, including oseltamivir (Tamiflu)."

    Best: the Beatles
    Not because they're popular. Not because they were influental. I voted for them because I greatly enjoy listening to their music more than other bands that begin with B. No other reason. I think thats why most people vote the way they do.

    Worst:Bee Gees

    Quote from Deliverance »
    Oh god Jesus would kick supermans ass, hes the frickin Son of God, what's superman? son of Alien?

    plus, Superman can't feed a bunch of starving people with only a few loaves.

    But...it'd be a battle of the morally righteous. I don't think they would fight in the first place. But Jesus would totally win if they did.

    However, he should use his web to rip off girls clothes.


    I completely agree with this piece of character development and its relation to Kirsten Dunst.

    The fact that I am not playing this game right now hurts me inside.
    Will Wright is actually a semi-funny dude. The mating example was absolutely hilarious. Can't wait for this game to destroy my life.

    Happiness


    Dylan Baker plays an terrifyingly creey pedophile.
    Phillip Seymour Hoffman Plays a creepy phone caller.
    Together they provide an incredibly creepy movie.

    Edit: There's a messed up kid as well. Dylan Baker and his kid have the most disturbing scene I have ever witnessed.

    Quote from gamermk »
    Your response reminds me of a devout christian actually. Where as some would say the bible is a collection of morale stories and not factual. You can't seem to look outside the real world and connect with the fantasy world to draw knowledge from it. Essentially you approached this as a lecturer not a participant. (something I guess I'm doing now too in my response, but heh two wrongs make a right Grin right? )

    On that note...

    Jesus.

    Best superhero ever. Defeated Original Sin without even casting the first stone. He sacraficed himself so our world would be better. In a lot of ways he's like Neo, from The Matrix. The Bible totally rips off the Wachowski Bros. (Where is that lawsuit???)

    But removing my tongue from my cheek for a moment...If the bible is taken as ficiton...and Jesus is taken as a superhuman (son of god)...he's a terrific character. Alot like superman actually...but without the invincibility. Which only makes him better.

    New topic: Who would win? Superman or Jesus?

    Concerts can be good. Depends on who's playing. I've never really been to a bad show. Best show? They Might Be Giants with Ok Go as the opener. Amazing show.

    Outcast Genius
    69 % Nerd, 69% Geek, 56% Dork
    For The Record:

    A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
    A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
    A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
    You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius.

    Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).

    Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius.

    Congratulations!


    Wow...even I surprised me...

    I'd have to say history. I love learning absolutely useless stuff that I'll never need to know again. Like....ummm...in 1928, 8% of the U.S. was in the Klan! I think. I don't know.I also had some of the best teachers in history. In Western Civ. II, we traveled through history by reading selections from philosophers and writers of that time period. Best class ever. As for further education, I am literally at this very moment filling out an application to Ithaca College.
