  • Consider the change registered! Also, consider that cat adorable!
  • No, that's the registration cost. Earlier in this thread, Stef estimated about $25/night for a hotel room (we're going to reserve rooms as soon as we've got the spare cash, so we're not stuck with a Motel 6 or Best Western or something), and that still sounds reasonable to me. It doesn't look like ConnectiCon has worked…
  • Update time! The prices are gonna start going up soon, so I highly suggest you guys start coming together for the group discounts. Here's the ConnectiCon '06 registration page; it's $30 a pop for the weekend, with $5 off per membership if 10 or more people get in on it and send them all in at once in the same envelope (if…
  • Night Lord: learn some tact. Seriously, that was just mean-spirited.
  • Yeah, Night of the Living Dead is under public domain. Since this is the case, any company is allowed to resell the movie, so the special features help you determine who's offering the best deal. The answer to that is: get the Mike Nelson commentary.
  • I just calls 'em likes I sees 'em! I enjoyed Night of the Living Dead, like I enjoy many bad movies, but that doesn't make it a good movie!
  • Here's the edition of Night of the Living Dead you should look for. Seriously, Mike Nelson's commentary is superb, and makes this particular bad movie downright watchable (although the film is a cult classic and an important piece of zombie film history, it really is a terrible, terrible movie).
  • Everyone who's cool knows it's Kuribo's Shoe.
  • Well done! By the way, you don't need to take a screenshot of the whole screen, nor do you need a screenshot widget to do so... just hit Command+Shift+4 (take screenshot of selection), then Space Bar (take screenshot of one window), then click the widget. Ta-da!
  • HAZMAT just wanted the Fire Flowers all to themselves. I sincerely hope they aren't harshly punished just because people are so damn reactionary these days.
  • OMG Elliott posted something! I was waiting for like forever! GEEZ!
  • It might be considered offensive, but it's also nonsensical, so it works out:
  • Or 1985, as the reference would actually be.
  • In conclusion, people with all sorts of relationships with Ron are on MySpace.
  • Degrees of burning don't refer to the amount of the body burned, they refer to how deep into the skin the burn damage extends. Considering a fourth degree burn concerns all tissue beneath the dermis (muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones), a fourteenth degree burn probably means you're reduced to a fine powder, as are two…
  • But who's going to be releasing PowerPC-driven computers to the consumer market when Apple's out of the picture? Not that I'm worried about IBM's ability to stay afloat, as they're keeping themselves plenty busy making the processors for all three next-gen game consoles.
  • Public health jobs always make a lot of money! Garbage collectors are rollin' in dough! ... and garbage. So that's your trade-off.
  • As am I; I've found the avatar to be a sufficient way to distinguish one's posts. but I don't see much reason to restrict it as long as people keep their signature images at a reasonable size.
  • Hmm, I'm not seeing the setting in the admin control panel, but I'll keep looking into it.
  • You're right, I'd forgotten about the recent re-design. My apologies, and I'll get to work on somethin' at some point somewhere.
  • I don't find this thread to be particularly clever. Also, the "OS-That-Cannot-Be-Named" starts with an 'M' (not a 'W'), as do all 'M'-made products.
  • Very nice! But for maximum accuracy, you're best off making the background a solid color.
  • I love Army of Darkness too, but the difference is that it's intentionally humorous. If you want 'bad' movies, try the first two in the trilogy (Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2, for the record).
  • I suppose if you don't enjoy the occasional bad movie, you wouldn't understand. Sometimes a movie is just bad, and it's unenjoyable to watch, and you leave the theater feeling cheated of your nine bucks. But sometimes a movie goes beyond bad, to a point where the plot is so flimsy, the acting is so God-awful, and the…
  • Ooh, that CNN.com article says the movie comes out August 18th. I will be there, possibly wearing this shirt. You'll all free to join me, of course. In both movie-seeing and shirt-wearing.
  • Stef and I caught the midnight rerun last night. Truly an awe-inspiring episode, and I'll side along the others who don't want to spoil the fun for the rest of you. Find a way to watch it, and watch it.
  • Seriously, the amount of analysis going into what sounds like a throwaway joke is ridiculous. Equation jokes rarely make real mathematical sense.
  • That's because it's not a pun. It's actually funny.
    in A joke! Comment by mario March 2006
  • krazyk?
  • But they don't rename episodes of Star Trek that only take place in one solar system!
