Don't explain the purpose of the game, the purpose of the game is lame.

Incidentally I lost.

Stupid game.

Dear Perez Hilton,

Shut the hell up, you obnoxious, hate filled, bitter little man. You're ruining it for the rest of us.

Hugs and kisses,

I just saw an ad on MTV (why I was watching I don't know) for the straight-to-DVD "S. Darko", and soon may die of unknown causes (But you all will know the truth).

But my boyfriend was like come on S. Darko's gonna be good watch it with me and I finally caved. It was the most pointless thing I've ever seen.

Dump.

Misread the title as "Glowing Dongs" and thought 'what's so special about those?'

You shoulda realize it wasn't dongs when I said I must have only "one".

Dear Chris,

How the hell do you keep your motivation for going to the gym? I have a hard time dragging myself down there, but usually wind up enjoying it once I'm there. But I swear I'll look for any excuse not to go.

Sincerely,

Me

No, really, I'm supposed to go to Hawaii near the end of July and want to look somewhat passable in swim trunks.

You're lucky I read this. No, really thought, things have been pretty crazy these last few months. But finally I'm done for the semester and now I just have 55 hours of work per week to worry about.

I honestly don't know what gives me the drive to go to the gym like I do. I just do it. I don't find myself making up excuses as to why I can't go, or why I can't work out on a given day.

If you're looking for a way to "slim down" for your vacation in July, then I suggest doing at least 25 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise per day, and watch your sodium and carb intake. Sodium is what makes your body retain water, thus hiding definition, and carbs will turn into fat if not used.

This summer my goal is to add on a good 15 to 20 pounds of muscle by labor day. I'm currently weighing in at only 170 pounds, so my goal is between 185 and 190 pounds.

If you need some advice, feel free to PM me and I'll see if I can help you out.

That is cool as hell. I want one for my house!

Yeah so I was walking into my house yesterday morning and while I was opening the screen door and bent forward to take off my shoes ( because I thought I could do two things at once, silly me ). I brought the edge of the door into my head, knocked myself flat on the porch, and now have a wonderful gash in my face. Other than the two seconds of unconscious and the five minutes of slurred speech it was uneventful, but the sympathy tips at work have been f-ing awesome!

To the gamers, it looked like this:
- Wunderkind aggros Screen Door
- Wunderkind hits for 500 hp
- Screen Door uses Concussion, hits for 5,000,000 mp
- Wunderkind is unconscious

I've been saying this for years! Geeks are the most *freaky* in bed!

On a related note, I popped into Games Workshop and let me tell you unadulterated untapped G33K!

awesome.

There is already an initiative to burn a Linux kernel into a PC's BIOS, so the box effectively boots Linux off it's own hardware - rather than needing a disk with an O/S installed. Maybe this is the future: to turn Linux into a firmware product and PCs into embedded devices with no local storage (or just an SSD with a database on it, to preserve state information across reboots).

Will this be the death of operating systems?

My family is so big.

How big is it?

Well, I just compiled a birthday/anniversary list by month. Every single month has between 4 and 17 special dates. 112 in all and I know I'm missing some people.
