So I just got into the Firefall beta, and I have 5 Firefall beta invites. First five email addresses I get will be sent invites to it. If you're wondering what the game is like: think an MMORPG version of Tribes, with lots of creature-slaughtering.

I don't know that you guys have noticed, but I haven't posted at all in the last few weeks. I've realized recently that I've outgrown the need for this forum. I came to the realization when I foreswore visiting this place during spring break, and then I didn't re-bookmark it again. It's not...

So I have a friend (no, this isn't a cop-out, I got over this issue years ago), who is experiencing an existential crisis. This is largely due to our freshman composition class (of all things). She has read Camus' essay on the three choices when confronting existential crisis: acceptance...

So I was looking about at motorcycles, and while I know a fair amount about cars & trucks, I admittedly know jack shit about motorcycles. Anyone know a good forum to lurk moar on for good information about motorcycles?

http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2011/02/11/108562/obama-assertion-fbi-can-get-phone.html I don't usually start threads, but a quote came to mind when I saw this: "The only power the government will not abuse is that which it is not given."

So I had three friends over to play CS:S, and we were on a friend's server that is external to the LAN. They all have Macs and I have a desktop Windows 7 box. We're playing with a few bots added in, and I periodically experience lag of 3-10 seconds when I am playing, and it happens happens...

http://www.thefuntheory.com This is pretty cool, I like it. Wish more safety departments would think like this.

I just finished reading No Country for Old Men. In a word? Dark. Very. Very. Dark. I've heard it said that The Road is very dark, but I agree with Cormac McCarthy's claim that the father and son showcase the best of humanity's characteristics: love, strength against adversity, and hope...

So I have been looking for a good game to play for pickup games when I'm bored and want to have fun. I tried public servers, and most people are dicks on there. I've decided to look for people to play with so I can find more than one person at a given time (AS sucks with less than three...

I was talking with a friend on IM, and after deliberating... I just don't want to go to college after high school. I don't want to spend 4 more years on top of my existing 12 cramming useless facts with the occasional nugget of useful information for a degree. If I get into the USAFA, yeah...

**** Yeah! For the second year running I have had my leg ****ed over by the scout camp I work at. So I'm walking down to the shower-house because staff showers are a disaster, and I feel this pin-prick in my ankle. Then I hear a hiss and look down and see a MOTHER****ING GOD-DAMN SNAKE...

OK, I just finished spending 12 or so hours on a paper total only to find out that last third of that time didn't get saved. I hit the 'save' button multiple times over the paper's writing. Word SAID it saved, but when the file got closed ALL OF MY CHANGES were lost. My paper is due tomorrow...
