Hide it underneath your parent/legal guardians matress.

They'll never think of looking there.

[sarcasm]I'm sure they'll never find it.[/sarcasm]

Now it's hard to believe you were ever a contender for the one who got to boot Jimbo off the top ten, Warb.

There's a moral in that somewhere, Warbler.

Agreed. Grand Turismo is too sim for my tastes. I'm more of a MarioKart/Fzero/Waverace kind of gamer.

That sucks for you guys. I can't acsess anything video game related, though. I can't even go to ign.filmforce or Nintendo.com because of all the stupid filtering.

And at the same time I can acess G4Techtv.com since it's a tv-channel site, even if if it is devote 80% to games.

The reason is this: the filter was set to prevent us from plaing flash games like on addictinggames.com, because people were abusing it and playing when the should have been working; so thanks to that, I can't even read news about games at school except on the constantly outdated Xplay website.

Meh.

I might have said this allready, but advertising is fine as long as it doesn not involve the terms 'pop' and 'up' together in any fashion.

Besides, hot chocolate is mentioned in more than just the Thrawn novels.

You'd think with the technology in their galaxy they'd have invented chocolate.

I used to think I'd have job security with all the restaurants my parents owned, but with this stupid divorce settlement (or, more acurately, lack thereof), I think I might have to find a job somewhere else.

Maybe WalMart will be hiring. They are just about to go Super not long from now.

Uh, do you even remember the name of this website and what the petition is for?

Of course I do. I just meant that my reasons for signing the petition were for curiosity and fairness' sake, not because of nostalgic feelings for the pre-SE versions of Starwars; I just can't really relate to what Ric so emphatically 'Amened'.

No point really, just giving an explanation.

Though, I think that the number of glaring contradictions are remarkably few for how large the EU. And especially considering that many were caused by the prequels contradicting established EU canon and prequel-era EU material having to change for it.

See. It all comes back to blaming Lucas.

That's partly the fault of it constantly changing publishers from DelRey to Bantam and then back to DelRey.

Why? Why I'd rather watch the faces edition over the SEs? Well, in order to answer to that, I'd ask you to say the name of this website out loud 5 times.

So the faces are the original version? Now I get it. It's a nostalgia thing.

Are they Beta, VHS, LaserDisc, or bootleg DVD???

Style can go a long way in making even a limited animation series (done on fours rather than twos) look superior. Recent examples of this include Dexter's Laboratory, The Powerpuff Girls, Samurai Jack and Clone Wars, which all share one common denominator: Genndy Tartakovsky.

Unfortunately, he was also responsible for the pain-inducing "My Life as a Teenage Robot"

She's not really invisible. She just fades into an outline and the bad guys for some reason still can't see her.

But do you have a car?

Or a job?

If not, don't ever. Both are horrible.

Not really. I like driving myself sometimes and having a little extra cash.

I intend to get both whenever summer rolls around.
