The Tigers Weaver trade looks like it is a fricking great trade
 | too bad you said that because of that trade you would never follow the Tigers again |
 | Well, I initially thought it was just Weaver for Pena |
| bandwagoner |
| which would cause me to say that |
| fair-weather fan |
| Pena is actually the worst of the 3 prospects they got |
| do you have any idea how long we went without talking about sports before this item |
| and how is rooting for the worst team in the majors bandwagoning? |
| yes |
| yes? |
 | YES!!! |

| If I wasn't worried about you saying I was inappropriately using emotion icons, the picture to the left would be sad |

| thats not santa |
| well its a santa impersonator |
| interesting interpretation |
| i'll appeal to The Foiba to settle this |
 | it looks like Santa to me, but I've been fooled before. |

I got NFL 2K3... XBOX Live Enabled-tastic
| mmmm no madden |
| yes, and XBOX Live |
| and the franchise mode is supposed to be great |
| got it for $9.99 at blockbuster |
| is it Xbox, XBOX, xbox, or XBox? |
| is that an inclusive or? |
| if so, yes |
| if not, its Xbox |
| wow, sports games on a console system. I might play it if I can scam a free review copy as media at E3. |
| ooh burn |
| I only played the NFL 2KX series of games because they were made by SEGA |
| and I was totally behind the Dreamcast |
| Hell, I'd buy a new NFL 2kX game if it came out for the Dreamcast |
| I'm at the point right now, I might just buy a PS2 so I could never play it ever. |
| (I could get load times on my PS1 if I really wanted to.) |
Is it possible to have too much cheese?
| I don't know if I've ever encountered such a situation |
| It might be possible to have too many topics about cheese. |
| I've encountered this situation once, so far. |
| You're ever-so cute |
| It is pretty adorable how much I hate you |
| I've been hated before |
| Yeah, but I bet you've never been shanked before... in your delicate areas. (Like your kidneys. You need those to live.) |
| Are you calling my kidneys delicate? |
| we'll see about that, won't we? |
| I have codpieces for my kidneys |
| always overcompensating |
How exactly is "Cheese made with 100% Mozzarella" different from "Mozzarella"
| I think not processed cheese food |
| so which is better |
| at least when stuff is processed, I know what's in it |
| and I know they put stuff in it that makes it more delicious |
| they don't add stuff to add flavor, they add stuff so it never goes bad |
| unless you love preservatives |
| MSG can make my shit taste good. |
| MSG is a flavoring, not really a preservative |
| just like your mom |
| we're not talking about making my shit stick around for a long time, we're talking about making it taste good. |
| and I'm the one that loves the mom jokes? |
| and, I'm sorry, but 'your mom' jokes died with legitimate big-label bands, somewhere around 1996 |
| I perform them to please and mock you, my lord. |
| I don't understand the "royal" system |
| what makes one a lord? or a duke? or a baron? |
| i think they evolved into mid-level managers, vice presidents and CEOs |
| I like how this discussion went from my shit to British royalty. |
| I think I'd want to be a baron |
| if them fricking Hillbillies can be Dukes, I'll take Baron also |
| a Baron of Hazzard? |
| I think Count is cool too. |
| there is just something "curious" about counts |
| Count Chocula, Count of Monte Cristo... |
| Counts have an obligitory cape obligation, no? |
| doh |
| I doubled up on obligit- |
| I'm a stupid stupid man |

I liked Deep Space 9
| that is all |
| It had a few good ones |
| like, after I watched that, the TNG seemed lame |
| and then the one where they got lost in the other quardrant was lame too |
| Voyager? |
| I thought DS9 was silly once it transitioned to mainly Defiance based episodes |
| I just liked how it was sleazier |
| "holo-suites"... hehe |
| TNG just seemed so wholesome after DS9 |
| who does Worf end-up with anyway, in one series he was all getting it on with Deanna and in the other one he married that Dax thing |
| hmm... I remember a wedding in Nemesis |
| Nemesis is like erased from my brain. |
| I never watched any DS9, but a friend ordered the whole first season, so I'll watch that when it comes. |
Ned Kelly: Australian Ironoutlaw
| Ned Kelly is the most awesome man in the universe. |
| He built giant, cumbersome "bullet-proof" suits of armor, and convinced his gang to do the same. |
| He was killed the first time they tried the suits out in a shoot-out with police. |
| "The armour proved to have a number of flaws, the worst being the restriction the helmet placed upon the occupant. With a helmet on, one could only see straight ahead, as the side vision was impaired. This meant that the aiming of a weapon was near impossible. Perhaps this accounts for the fact that, on the police side, only Hare was wounded during the whole shootout" |
|  |
| Didn't I see this in a lethal weapon movie? |
| What I'm most impressed with is the gall of the man. He already had a price on his head, so why not try to build bullet-proof armor? Like the police let him get away with it. |
| "I'm sorry, sir, but he has some sort of bullet-proof armor over his face and chest. There's no way we can take him down." |
| shoot him in the balls |
| They had groin cod pieces. Ned Kelly's was purposely bigger than the rest of his gang |
| bigger target? |
| I would make everyone else have a bigger codpiece |
| to increase the chance that they are shot instead of me |
| The bigger cod piece thing is what's so funny and awesome about this guy. Like, he was protecting his big ass balls so he could have kids later, and I'm sure he envisioned himself sitting, as a grandpa, in an old leather chair, running his hand over his armor, which is showing a little bit of rust in its old age. |
| Telling his grandkids, "Yep, they never could shoot me when I was in this armor. Never ever." |
| you getting this from the page, or are you makingup stories? |
| Well, I made up the grand-kid thing. That's kinda what I do as a writer. |
| just reminded me of something I would say |
| will Black and White 2 be any better than the first? I mean, will you be able to put 20 hours into it in the first few days, and actually want to play it again? |
| I hated the original Black and White |
| I bought it right when it came out (like 50 bucks), and played it non-stop for 2 days. Then I realized I'd done all I wanted to do |
| $50 for 2 days of entertainment ain't bad |
| Once my friend came over and beat up his creature to 100%, for doing something right. That monkey was so fucked up. |
| and you got nice stories to tell also |
| Throwing villagers, eating villagers, petting villagers. Doing that cycle over and over. |
| I paid $7 to see monkeybone in the theatre |
| you got a better deal |
Note For Historians
| On this day, Saturday March 8th, 2003, Warren could do nothing right |
| (Is it Saturday already?) |
| Warren, if you're still in LA in May, I'll come by your place. I'm going to LA for E3 |
| Fine, I'll just drive to Michigan (or Idaho) and beat you up |
| san jose |
| that'd probably be a good fight |
| OK, I can still drive a long way. It might take me a week in my dilapidated Cadillac, but I'll still get there. |
| I'm taking TAE KWAN DO |
| I can run fast |
| I get 16 miles to the gallon, in a V8. And there's nothing I can't hit in my Cadillac that won't knwo it got hit by a Cadillac. |
| so foreknowledge of the Cadillac bestows invincibility? |
| if so.. |
| I AM INVEEENCIBLE! |
| Invincible, until I, you know, HIT YOU WITH MY CADILLAC. Cadillac don't care, it doesn't have airbags. It doesnt' know if it hit someone or if it just slowed down for a stoplight. |
| I'll just make sure I stay on big sheets of ice |
| Cadillac doesn't even know what ice is. Ice just make Cadillac 50x more deadly. |
| yes but if i'm on ice, in 1000 years they can figure out how to bring me back to lfie |
| life |
| and then i can be like, dude, that day a thousand years ago was the suck |
| I hate you so bad |
| What did warren do that was so bad? |
| Make it "weekend" |
| and its starting to look like "week" too... |
| its still the weekend where you be |
| I'm starting to think i'm just seeing the beginning of the end |
| you've peaked? |
| blah |
| and you |
| 've never been in a band |
| blah life sucks |
| blah i'd just get my ass beaten |
| I'd play left-handed |
| so it's like every weekend, then? |

Enterprise
| <Foiba> man, jordie, some dude is arguing with me about how awesome Enterprise is |
| <jordie3> What's he saying about it? |
| <jordie3> Is he badmouthing Trip? |
| <jordie3> Because NO ONE shall badmouth The Trip. |
| <Foiba> don't you know the Enterprise theme when you see it? |
| <W-> nope |
| <Foiba> SLAPS |
| <W-> what does a song about faith in hearts and strength of souls have to do with excessive vulcan breasts and bad plots about time travel |
| <Foiba> because the show is so awesome |
| <Foiba> it's so fun watching a star trek where the enterprise is so weak |
| <Foiba> "Sir, they threw a rock at us!" "Status?" "The rock hit us. |
| <Foiba> and Trip Hawkins is such a fun character. he's so awesome |
| <Foiba> Phlox is ten times the doctor that Crusher was, and 3.5 the doctor that Bones was |
| <Foiba> Trip would beat the shit out of Geordie, and make him like it, then get drunk with Scottie and, during drunken conversations with Scottie, design the most awesome warp engine ever |
| * W- backs away from the foiba |
| <jordie3> you are VERY correct with that last statement |
| <Foiba> it's so true |
| <jordie3> I am KING of the swamp! |
| _The Above is an example of now not to use Pants, and will be lectured upon by Tony tomorrow_. The Administration |
| I'm sorry, I've got nothing to say about sports |
| if you want me to contribute, it's gonna be about 1)video games, 2) drinking or 3) Star Trek |
| or all three |
| thats fine, its just pasting a bunch of IRC messses up the stylin' |
| i would have been happy to re-enact the conversation for proper logging |
| I post once every three days, I'm sure you can deal with it |
| sorry |

Mmmm SWG is purty...
| If Freelancer is any indication, Star Wars: Galaxies is absolutely gonna kill us. |
| We've been playing this game so long, I'm not even sure what day it is anymore. |
| We just keep on inviting people to bring their computers over, and join our galaxy. |
| I think we've put about 40 hours into it the last couple of days. |
| SWG is designed with the casual gamer in mind... so hopefully.. |
| Freelancer gives us now what we thought would be the coolest part of SW:G... owning your own starship and flying around the galaxy doing anything you want. |
| and we're learning now that the space element part won't even be in the first version of SW:G |
| Flying ships, no |
| its an entire came in itself, see Earth & Beyond |
| its the first expansion thugh |
| being able to fly ships hasn't been "in" the game for more than a year |
| Yeah, but we'll be playing this game for a long while. We've explored all the main parts of the galaxy, but there's a ton of hidden stuff. Somewhere there's a dock that sells the Level 10 freighter. |
| (Do you know where the Level 10 freighter is?) |
| Kelethin? |
Looks like no Leftwich (or Grossman) to Bears
| Kordell! |
| Poor urlacher |
| yes. Kordell is obviously worse than Jim Miller |
| Miller was doing pretty good until he got hurt |
| remind me of the last time he played a full season? |
| I'd really rather not |
Freelancer
| I'm starting to feel bad for the people who knock me out of the starlanes in Freelancer now |
| before, I would just run away, but now, I'm so powerful, I just kill every single one of them |
| if they run away, I chase them and kill them. The whole time, I'm taking all their stuff |
| I don't know what that dude wanted with 10 units of Scrap Metal, or if that's just what I turned his ship into, but I sold it for $50 |
| they've never been out of the system, and they're hoping to sell whatever they can steal from people to buy food, or maybe a nice present for their girlfriends. One of the guys is about to propose to his girl, who is flying wingman on this mission to hijack freighters |
| and their plan might work on lesser ships |
| but when they hijack me, they die. They all die. And then I take whatever was leftover in their cargo holds, which isn't worth shit, but they don't need it anymore. |
| all I can tell these guys is GET A JOB. It's so easy to make money doing freighter jobs, and it'd be easier if punks didn't constantly jack your starlane. |
| A few bad apples ruined it for everyone else. Before, I let people who hijacked my starlane get away, but now everyone dies. I'm sorry, but it's policy now. |
| (Sometimes, when I'm selling the 10 units of Scrap Metal that I collected from an exploded fighter, I think for a minute, "Are these ten units all that remains of that man who so cowardly hijacked the star lane? Does his mom wonder where he is? Should I contact his family?" And then I just sell it. |
| See, warren, I'm not the only person that makes stories about my video games |

| Man you rock the hizzouse |
| You can shizzle my pizzle for nizzle tizzle mclizzle |
| what does shizzle mean? |
| i always thought that "fo' shizzle my nizzle" meant "for sure, my n****r" |
| the "izzle" is bascially just a form of acronyms |
| like cizzle izzle aizzle is the CIA? |
| yeah |
| or "lets go to the store" would become "lets gizzle to the stizzle" |
| generally i think verbs and nouns are izzled |
| what about adverbs? |
| case by case |
| "The Pants are really cool, good work Tony!" becomes "Deez Pizzles are the cizzle, good wizzle my Tizzle" |

Hey, why is it again that in Star Wars, Leia is "Princess Leia"
| Neither Anakin or Padme are royalty, and Bayle Organa is just a Senator... |
| She was adopted, no? |
| yeah by a senator |
| maybe its an elected position in the rebellion |
| Maybe she changed her last name to Leia and her first name to Princess |
| Because she never has a last name |
| as far as I knew, Organa was her last name |
| But she like, never used it |
| No one ever checked for her credentials either |
| You'd think someone like Han, who despises such titles so much, would check before calling her "Princess" |
| Hell, I think I could get away with calling myself Princess |
| a discussion of the matter |
| Senator Bail Organa was the First Chairman and Viceroy of Alderaan, a hero of the Clone Wars, and the head of the Royal Family of Alderaan. |
| so being a senator does not imply you are not a king |
| I still think thats a weird last name |
