  1. I've been tip-toeing with this giril for awhile now and we finally exchanged numbers, she was making it very hard(which makes it more rewarding), first she would seem into me like crazy then, other days, just walk pass me as to see if I would say something or not.

    Anywho, finally got those digits in a weird exchange of numbers, but I know she digs me.

     

    The problem is, I never had to wait more than a day to get a call from a girl and just so happens im really into this one so does the 3day rule really mean something by following it? Girls who called me day after, I never thought "ZOMG this chick is crazy! Need sum space" so i dunno...

     

     

    How well do you know this girl? If it's just an associate you've been interested in, I'd say just wait a few days and then call for conversations sake only to give more of an opportunity to get to know each other. It really depends on what kind of relationship you want to have with this person. If you wanna have a "real" one, be passive at the beginning then show more interest little by little. The reason why she would act different on certain days would most likely be because she's testing you out. I can't say what kind of relationship she's after but usually girls that act all flirty and nice then act reserved means that they're waiting for some sign of significant interest. Show it by calling a couple days after receiving the number and get a feel of who she is and what she's about and go from there.

  2. Yeah, so many people think I'm crazy but I absolutely loved the feel of the 64 controllers. I really dislike the GC. Maybe it's because I have fat fingers...who knows? It's not my preferred choice. I'm like Will, gimme a PS controller any day and I'm slick as a brick. I also agree with Rag about Nintendo always coming out with unique designs. That's how the folks at Nintendo are..they're always trying out new concepts and I have to admire them for that but I would like to smack the ones who said "This controller works awesome! Let's put these in the market along with the console!" I'm sure they could have formatted a better style controller than what they have. I have never heard anyone (excluding what I've read here) say they like the GC pad. But, everyone has preferences and I will say that I would rather use the GC controller than a Saturn...uck.

  3. I wonder how many there are of balanced mind. Guns suck. Id rather face a melee opponent any day... even a ninja. At least I stand some kind of chance. Kinda hard to side step a bullet. The only reason I even consider owning one, is to protect myself... mainly from other that do have them. Or riotters. Or zombies. Or at an AC/DC concert (HATE)

     

    But also... shooting fire/ nails/ chain out of a shotgun is badass.... admit it.

     

     

    Yeah I agree (especially about the AC/DC concert). I mean, I personally believe that using a gun is showing a bit of cowardice. It takes anyone to simply wiggle a finger and shoot a gun. If I'm going to have the gumption to take someone's life, I'm going to make it more honorable. Yes...honorable. Doesn't exist much this day in age but I think if you're going to kill, you should put a bit more effort than pulling a trigger. Of course, using a gun on someone who has a gun would make sense. I can't see myself running and stabbing them with a sword before taking a few bullets. A bow & arrow would be more efficient only if I was able to shoot from a place I wasn't seen.

  4. Hmm Shotgun. A prefered weapon if hell ever broke lose. Especially against zombies. And the best part... options.

     

    The capacities are based on a 70mm length hull.

     

    000 Buck - 8 lead pellets (0.36")

    00 Buck - 9 lead pellets (0.33")

    0 Buck - 12 lead pellets (0.32")

    1 Buck - 16 lead pellets (0.30")

    4 Buck - 27 lead pellets (0.24")

    QB 8 - 8 pellets (Armor Piercing) - Quadrangle Buck is made from a steel cylinder cut into two layers of four pie-shaped pieces per layer. The numerous sharp edges gives excellent penetration; however, the light weight and poor ballistic shape limits its effective range.

    Flechettes - 32 flechettes (Armor Piercing) - Flechettes are essentially small steel nails with tiny fins swaged into the rear. High penetration.

    Slug - Slugs will pretty well flatten any target, armored or not; however, the issue of over penetration will determine whether you want to take the solid or the hollow-point slug.

    Slug HP - Hollow-point slugs. Less penetration than regular slugs.

    CS gas grenades - Combat shotguns can be used to disperse tear gas and similar chemicals.

    Bean bags - Bean bags are used as shotgun ammo in crowd control situations, as in most cases they stun the victim but do not inflict lasting damage.

    Rock salt - Rock salt is a popular home defense ammunition because it reportedly causes severe pain but usually no permanent damage.

    Baton - Rubber batons. Used for training.

     

    Now thats all official. This is where I come in... you can use a shell loader and put anything you want into the cartridges. Although, that would not be recommended. heh. Here are some I have found mentioned.

    Avenger: Hollow steel balls with a low gunpowder load. Short range and low recoil, with low penetration. Could be useful in a situation requiring low penetration, such as home defense. Semi-nonlethal.

    Bird Bombs: An explosive payload, which (in theory) detonates on impact. Roughly equivalent to an m80 firecracker.

    Bolo: Two heavy slugs connected by piano wire. Was once known as the garrote slug. While impossible to aim, the wire becomes a very hazardous blade at muzzle velocity.

    Bouncer: Two zytel (nylon) balls. High muzzle velocity, very low penetration. Semi-nonlethal, like rubber bullets.

    Chain reaction: A 6-inch length of chain. Impacts in a rather random pattern.

    Comet: A regular shotgun slug with a red tracer.

    Detonator: Essentially, a hollow lead slug with an explosive tip. It's made with for the purpose of filling with your own explosive or other payload, which then detonates on impact.

    Door buster: Tiny lead pellets, approaching lead dust. Impacts with full force, but over a larger area, with very little penetration.

    Dragon's Breath: Yes, these really do exist, and yes, you can order them for $16.98 each. White phosphorous that ignites upon being shot. Creates a 100-yard flamethrower that burns for about three seconds. Contrary to popular belief, this does not damage a smooth-bore shotgun.

    Fire siren: A small weighted whistle. Incredibly loud at muzzle velocity. Wear ear protection.

    Flash bomb: Like the bird bomb, above, but using a flash-powder incendiary instead of an explosive one.

    Mini Missile: A solid lead slug with a steel core. The lead slug peels away on impact, driving the core through hard targets (like armor.)

    Napalm: Like the Bird Bomb, above, but filled with white phosphorous, which burns very hot upon impact.

    Pit Bull: Six big lead pelletes, and one big slug.

    Shredder: A lot of sharp tacks. Short range, but high trauma to flesh.

    Smoke bomb: Essentially, the Dragon's Breath Round, only using a smoke powder instead.

    Super flare: A shotgun-launched flare.

    Yea... options. Anyway I just found this... interesting page. heh

    Wow...I didn't know there were that many types of ammo for one gun. I dig the Dragons breath rounds. I could see myself having wayyyyy too much fun with that. Heh...I'm somewhat of a pyro.

  5. IN Florida, we have signs posted everywhere as a reminder for tourists that "Florida shoots first!" I'm not big into guns. I'm still thinking about getting a shotgun though. Things are too crazy.

     

    I would only get a shotgun though. I like the whole balls to the walls ordeal. I highly doubt people would want to come up on my property and threaten myself or family with a huge barrel between the eyes. I don't mind getting a bit messy.

     

    I shot a gun once and it was on accident. It was a 22 and I thought it was a toy. It ricochet and when the cops showed up, the bullet was 2 feet to the right from where I was standing. (I was only 9 and it was at a drive-thru convenience store. I was friends with the owner's daughter.)

  6. War... A game that has been played since the dawn of written history.

     

    We go to school and learn history for what purpose? To learn from our mistakes of the past, and not redo them? Bullshit. We learn history so that we can see without ignorant eyes what is actually transpiring in front of our very faces. Because no-one seems to learn anything... it keeps repeating.

     

    The world is basically the exact same as it has been.

     

    have/havenot: Those with (anything) use others (havenots) to their own gain. How else CAN it be. Where we are now is similar to the days of kings and lords, pharo's or whatnot. Kings living off the food peasants work their asses off for. The peasants suffer in terms of medical care and the like, where as the king and his crew take the benefitt of everything in their land. They claim rightful rule, but their line usually took the position at the end of a sword anyway. (european style at least) but I'm sure it's the same anywhere. And so they take their "ideals" and impose it on their people. Sound fimilar so far?

     

    We pay our taxes, we buy gas, we buy anything, and our government gets its share. We have cliche reports of senators and state/country officials with ridiculous things that were purchased on OUR bill. We the people paid for them. Like someone hear in Florida a few years back. Guy had a desk of exquisite quality. Desk had a $15,000+ pricetag. We paid for it. Aslo there was word on a sinator whos power bill alone was more than my rent. Appearently he had alot of work done to his house, and he paid for it with our tax money. Sh!t like this happens all the time everywhere.

     

    Aaaaany way, my point is money. This gas thing. We have the technology to go beyond petrol. We have had the tech for a while. The tech for superior carberators was there before I was born, and I'm 30. Back then there was a guy who came up with a carberator that made MPG crazy efficient. But it was "lost" Many people have come up with similar designs or whatever, but it never makes it. I heard of one case where it passes all emitions checks but it needed to pass the official one in Texas... where it somehow didn't pass the test??? Therer is alot more to those stories but the point is... the powers that be (the haves) make sure it never becomes a threat. Some say the oil companies bought out the patten, some say foul play. Whatever the truth, I see conspiracy. The government makes favors to finantial backers, tax cuts, whatever... the list is huge. Companies make stupid money, and break off some. Gas being one of the most prominent. Petrol is stone age tech. There is NO reason we should still be using it, other than the fact that it COSTS, how will they make anymore money of gas if were not using it?

     

    This is a fuking joke. A deadly joke. A game where we are the pawns. bla bla (endless ranting) point is, war on terrorism is not what I see. It's an excuse. Look... we have many problems in the world. I don't have the answers. But I do know thet we have been over there for a loooong time. And for what. Establishing a new government? They are just as corrupt as we are... differene is the culture, etc. I say "they" but I use that word so to speak.

     

    What should we do... I don't know, but I will say that there is a ton of sh!t going on that is BS. That is obvious. But what we can see for sure, is there is a distinct pattern to the MO of the powers that be. We are just peasants that cannot break free... especially if they are standing on our shoulders to attain their height. Their weight squashes us in place. And of you roll over trying to throw them off, there is another to take your place. I'm not saying we can't change anything... but first, what can we do differently? I don't know.

     

    Guess I'm just saying... war on terrorism, laughable.

     

     

    I agree with pretty much everything you said.

     

    Sybarite Paladin AxL,

     

    As for us being F*d if we didn't have oil, I'm sure you're right. The brainless ones who fully depend on such things won't make it. Though, if we go back to the good ol' days of doing sh*t ourselves, EVERYONE would have some kind of job, EVERYONE would have something of their own (that they wouldn't have to pay for the rest of their whole lives), and EVERYONE would be too busy working their ass off sun up to sun down to provide for themselves. I don't mind going back to living off the land so if that's what it takes, I'm all for it!

  7. After looking at the Weird story thread, i ask do anyone believe in ghosts?

    Hauntings? etc.?

     

    I often do look research on souls just in general whether it be religious or scientific.

    The funny thing is, there are some religious pple who dont belive in ghosts and spirits

    while some scientific research state that they believe it may be traces of such an entity.

     

    BUt majority is the contrast of that ofcourse.

     

    I think it would be interesting to be those guys in the VAN outside the haunted house and observe whats going on inside.

     

    It depends on what precisely is meant by the term “ghosts.” If the term means “spirit beings,” the answer is a qualified yes. If the term means “spirits of people who have died,” the answer is no. “…man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.” The closest biblical example of a “haunting” is found in Matthew 5:1-20. A “legion” of demons possessed a man and used the man to “haunt” a graveyard. There were no “ghosts” involved. It was a case of a normal person being controlled by demons to terrorize the people of that area. What happens is, demons parade themselves around like they're good "ghosts" and open up the curiosity we all have as human beings. We go to things we should stay away from to seek answers and we end up dealing with things we never thought preparing ourselves for. I not only speak for myself but for lots of people whose stories I have heard that were similar to mine. I don't believe that the human spirit is here on earth when they die.

  8. lol, who really eats dominoes? well... actually that is a good question, soo many better pizza places in my hood

     

    they both went to jail , homeboy got out on bail, biatch is still there as far as i know, lol-x

     

     

    People like that make me want to go on a punch everyone in the eye spree....

  9. gotta fight back...simple

    Not sure if we involve their civilians in our retaliation though.

    If we do then thats bad....:D

    Everyday pple who didnt decide to kill no one shouldn't be killed in my opinion...

    But ehhh....Im having a debate with myself in my head right now so im not sure what i think about that now, lol...

     

     

    I think it's a joke. It's the government's used up excuse of trying to appease us to get what they're really after. If we were to retaliate the ones who were responsible, things would have been much easier.
