  1. That last scene when the Emperor finally speaks is one of the funniest moments in cinema.
  2. I wouldn't say there was MORE advertisement back then, but it was definitely just as pervasive as it is today. The difference is that there's more MEDIUMS today than back then, so the illusion of it being more pervasive is stronger. When you have no TV and no radio, simply having ads in all the newspapers is quite pervasive.
  3. True story: Chicken nuggets gave me tiny manboobs in high school. I still love them. Chicken nuggets, that is. Not manboobs.
  4. I've had so much work this month I haven't made any plans. So for now, I get off work at noon, I'll probably go buy myself a huge tent and go camp out in the south of PR. There's all sorts of crazy drunken boat partying going on this weekend all over the place. I'm just gonna hitch a ride with whoever takes me.
  5. Before there was a Chupacabra, there was THE GARADIABLO!!
  6. Re: Beefeater...... Hint: Firefox
  7. U2, many songs, but the standouts would have to be "Gone" and "Heartland". µ-Ziq, "Goodbye, Goodbye" Soda Stereo, "En la Ciudad de la Furia (Unplugged)"
  8. Jess Moondragon: Mother Nature sure got up on the right side of bed today, huh? Ron Burgundy: [laughs] She's a giving lady! Jess Moondragon: Yeah. Ron Burgundy: Mother Nature, she is. Jess Moondragon: She didn't even bother to put on makeup! [they laugh] Jess Moondragon: You know, I - I'd deeply like to take her and... make love to her. Ron Burgundy: Mm! She's an elusive goddess, Mother Nature. Jess Moondragon: Yeah. Still, to... feel her succulent breasts pressed against me, and... my breath whispering hot in her ear. Yeah, baby. While I fumble with my belt... you get my drift, friend? Ron Burgundy: Yeah. Yeah, I do. I do. But therein lies the rub, for she turns away all suitors. Jess Moondragon: I'd like to take Mother Nature to a sleazy motel, get in the shower, and... wash each other all over, and then go in the bedroom and do things you can only do in Bangkok... Ron Burgundy: All right, I'm gonna have to stop you there; you're making me very uncomfortable. Jess Moondragon: Sorry, Ron Burgundy, I... Mother Nature does that to me. Wonk.
  9. That's "The Way Things Go" by Peter Fischli & David Weiss. Completely bitten by the award-winning Honda commercial whose creators completely failed to give credit where credit was due.
  10. In spanish, you have to use two exclamation points, the first one being inverted. It looks just like an "i" (¡). So when I see that on spanglish mode, it looks like a call to action. "¡Put the AK47 in AK47tion!" And I get really excited. Cause I really wanna do it. I wanna put the AK47 in AK47tion.
  11. Re: what's the craziest looking animal? ^Sweet, where/what were you fishing for? Cuttlefish as live bait sounds like a pretty interesting event. I once spearfished a tropical reef squid for the same reason (well, not live bait, but bait nonetheless). They're not quite as crazy as cuttlefish but they're still pretty insane looking. I remember seeing the shape floating in space, then just thinking how great it'd be to drive a huge metal rod into it (no beastie. I have to say "no beastie" because I am a robot and it may be misconstrued). So I went for it and the entire world went black. It literally exploded in a HUGE cloud of ink that was way larger than I thought possible, I couldn't tell which way was up. Eventually I got to the surface and held it out the water, and this thing was spewing ink out like a supersoaker, it was crazy. We caught a couple good groupers with it later. And one of those fish you catch that you have no idea what it is and can't find out from anyone and nobody knows if you can eat it so you keep it and it stays in your fridge for 4 months until you finally realize that it will never be eaten and you throw it out pissed at the fact that you kept it around for 4 months.
  12. Matthew Reilly is far better than this dude.
  13. Re: Detos pink! I heard the whole reason to switch to white backgrounds was to nullify Detos' pink.
  14. Re: what's the craziest looking animal? They do it to either confuse predators or to talk to each other. If they're just chilling around, you might not see much craziness, but if there's more than one, it gets insane. They're both trying to hide from you and warn the others that there's danger. You wouldn't believe how fast those colors swirl around.
  15. The first one I ran into made me flip the fuck out. It's a seriously confusing experience, this thing floating in the middle of the water with the craziest fucking colors swirling around, it looks absolutely unreal and it takes some time to understand what you're looking at. Pictures don't do it justice. Imagine all those spots and stains travelling all over the body at variable speeds, the whole thing disappearing in front of you except for the eyes, then the two disembodied eyeballs move ahead a few feet and boom, there it shows up again with the swirling colors. It's fucking crazy.

  17. Re: what's the craziest looking animal? Hahahahaha, what the fuck... I dunno what to say man. Spores. I guess they're a little creepy, but I don't see the barnacle connection. How about basketballs? They have that sporey texture, do basketballs freak you out?
  18. Barnacles? Lampreys and leeches are fucking horrible, but barnacles? They just sit there glued to a rock and let out a flamboyant fan through a vaguely vaginal slit. It's the gayest thing ever, how come they make you anxious?
  19. Re: what's the craziest looking animal? As a matter of fact, I think an amendment to the rules is in order. No fucking lampreys on 12oz, period.
