that german teacher also came to school on ski's once. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> looked pretty wierd when he came sliding into the classroom with his prods and goggles, in a skiing suit. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> That reminds me of this crazy kid in Grade 8 - he didn't know how to ski, and our yearly trip to the mountains resulted in what was probably one of the funniest things I've ever seen <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

Tom was being instructed by this little dipshit who wasn't much good at skiing himself (I was in the same class - still can't ski worth squat). Tom decided to go a little ways down the hill - BAD idea <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> He couldn't stop - he rocketed down the slope, screaming his head off, and shot right out into the parking lot. He slammed into the side of our bus <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" /> I still can't believe that wasn't me <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

i always tag along to see everyone else make a faceplant. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> sometimes i help. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

He had to be peeled off the bus - his exposed skin was stuck to it <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I've never went skiing since <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" /> I got no interest in gettin' friendly with a bus <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

that hurts. i know, i've gotten my tongue stuck to a popsicle a few times. you actually just have to wait till you melt yourself off. it takes longer, but it's LOT less painful.
 
7094

Have you ever tried sticking your tongue to something metal in the middle of winter? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Edit: I've stumbled across some piratey emoticons that could maybe be used on the forum - this is one of 'em: <img src="http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm245/Stallion_037/pirate-ayant-soif.gif" border="0" class="linked-image" /> Where would I post about this to let somebody know about 'em and see if they're interested?

burning brig, i suppose. but you could also post it in the bidness and badness section, i think.

woaaaaah..... i've found this huge list of manga-ish webcomics. some of them have absolutely stunning artwork. looks like i'll have something to do.

Well, if your machine could run it, I've found a 500MB copy of Just Cause for ye, if ye be interested <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

It's a free-roaming game on a tropical island. The basic story is you're the macho American going in to overthrow a corrupt dictator, while causing as much destruction as possible <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> . There is one main mission, as well as 300-odd side missions which entail doing this for this guy stuff. You also liberate towns and cities from the government, as well as private estates from a drug cartel you also happen to be fighting. You can also just venture throughout the islands, destroying stuff at will or enjoying the scenery - despite looking mostly the same everywhere you go, there are several hidden locations not involved in any of the missions or storyline.

Safehouses are unlocked after certain missions are completed, and are the place to find more unique vehicles, as well as the only place to save your progress.

There's around 100 different vehicles in the game, ranging from motorbikes to fighter jets. There's also a Formula Jet Boat that tops 300 km/h.

This is a video of the first mission: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdvtHwNd9go" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdvtHwNd9go</a>

You'll either like this game or hate it. It's got an idiotic amount of bugs, so be prepared (only bug I've seen is the funky jumpy clouds).

i'm not really into that kind of shooters. something simple like jets n guns or a largely brainless air combat game like red ace squardon is more fun to me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />

Okay <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> Base jumping's probably the best part of the game - especially when you cheat. Falling 8,000 feet to the ground without a parachute, then getting up and dusting yourself off never gets old for some strange reason <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> something else happened in aveyond 2 once which never fails to amuse me.

Gavin had a staff which could curse an enemy on touch. apparently, this nifty little thing has a greater chance of cursing someone that actually doing the spell 'curse', and you do a little damage to boot. here was the battle round against a boss:

1: *curse* ... miss. darn.

2: *CURSE* ... miss. dangit!

3: hey... wait a minute. *CLONG* curse! yay! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

it's always so STUPID to let a wizard fight with his staff, and it almost always results in something funny. for example, Nicolas had a staff which could make an enemy go berzerk on touch. this means it doesn't attack your party, but either itself or one of your enemies. however, Nicolas doesn't actually do any damage when hitting someone. this is what happened:

okay, one enemy left. only Nicolas has to attack, so i'll have to get really lucky now.

Nicolas attacks... does 1 damage... enemy goes berzerk... attacks... and kills itself! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

it's even more stupid when an enemy attacks himself and MISSES. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> how the hell do you do THAT!? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
7102

Sounds like some of the stuff that's in this psychology course <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
7105

how's that?

ugh... i'm stuck again. almost done though. guess this means i'll have to go talk to everyone all over again and visit every spot to see if i missed something. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

You don't want to know <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
