    VR Miasmata?
  2. Life

    Common Cine. We've talked about this. Where the hell do you find all of these random videos anyway?
  3. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    Have been going through all the artists I liked trying to find new stuff. Found Mike Shinoda's side thingy Fort Minor. Pretty well known, you've probably heard at least one of their songs, but there is one song that may be one of my favourites of all time.
  4. Movie/TV recommendations

    Wikipedia says it comes out March 28th. But none of the trailers (or any other place on the internet) can confirm this.
  5. Movie/TV recommendations

    I just re-watched The Raid: Redemption in preparation for the sequel. It may not be a popular suggestion, but I absolutely love the execution. Even though Gareth Evans (Writer, Director) hasn't done much else of appreciable quality he managed to handle the subject matter with actual maturity; which is only something I can say about a handful of action movies. Yes, it's a martial arts movie from Indonesia. Yes, there is a lot of gore. In fact, it made me squeamish. And being that I'm pretty damned desensitized (action movies are my equivalent to feel good movies) I consider that to be a testament to how well done this movie was. An example: The traditional sounds of controlled breathing were replaced with agonizing grunts, which lasted even after fights ended. You never feel the participants in the action are in control, it is almost always survivalist, dirty, and intense. Obviously, it isn't for every one. My tastes are weird, I like the Coens and Bay (No, not Transformers). Though if you're not immediately repelled by action or martial arts movies, give this one a shot, it does a good job of meeting people like me somewhere in the middle. Edit: Also, Music by Mike Shinoda, who is great.
  6. Gone Home from The Fullbright Company

    Yes. Good examination. Thanks for sharing. Edit: Oh, by the way-- explosions in the sky
  7. Dark Souls(Demon's Souls successor)

    If you know the intended lore, then that statement is heartbreaking :'(
  8. Life

    I call Steve. He's dreamy.
  9. Dark Souls(Demon's Souls successor)

    I AM DARK LORD!!! which, of course, means I've finally beaten the game. (143 hours total) I stopped being a baby and finally beat Manus, then almost immediately beat Gwyn. I feel soooo good :')

    I'll have to get back to you on that
  11. I Had A Random Thought...

    So we're just going to completely skip over what Zeus said? Alright. Just checking.
  12. I Had A Random Thought...

    I never liked DBZ growing up, and if THAT is what I was missing, I'm glad I stuck with Spider-Man.
  13. Life

    Whatever the offer, congrats.
  14. Movie/TV recommendations

    I don't think Gormongous' explanation is wrong either way.
  15. Movie/TV recommendations

    I don't fully understand this. I loved the movie but the ending confused me; could you possibly expand this concept? Feel free to PM me.

    Are you saying I have trouble connecting with people? You sound like my therapist :/
  17. Martin Luther King Jr Day

    Don't fret Clyde. PC and Mac computers have a "text-to-speech" option. Give it a listen. (It's really quite beautiful)
  18. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    My vote is for Nick. It'd be cheaper. Also, I feel it would be less insulting to the lord.
  19. Feminism

    agreed.
  20. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    Did they? I may be entirely out of the loop. Also, I guess that makes the decision much easier.
  21. The Idle Thumbs 10th Anniversary Committee

    Are you sending it into Campo Santo or Idle Thumbs?
  22. Life

    Continuing on the general theme of this thread; being unemployed sucks. I just want to pay for school so I can stop being a stagnate piece of shit.
