Happy Beer Day, USA! (04/07/2015)

The only light beer I'll drink is the occasional Budweiser

 You ever had Budweiser's Black Crown Lager?  It's got 6 % alcohol (still not much I guess) but it's quite enjoyable.  I like it better than the original budweiser.  I've been drinking budweiser select lately.  I don't like it but it has less calories and I'm trying to lose a few pounds.  Not alot just 10 or 15 or so so I figured it couldn't hurt.  I've lost 5 so far just from switching to that.

Video Games - a general discussion thread
Time

I'm glad it isn't happening.  While the idea of a zelda tv show is exciting and intriguing, it presents alot of problems.

1)Link has no personality whatsoever in the games other than what you gave him.  Alot of people would be disappointed at the personality netflix gave him since it would be different than what they always pictured.

2)It might cause future zelda games to try to conform to the tv show in terms of story arc, and that'd be bad.  I like my zelda games huge and mystical thank you!

3)If it sucks it might hamper future zelda games.

I propose a third option: you're all being Diet Racists against me specifically*, and I must therefore begin a lengthy campaign of complaint about the persecution I have unjustly endured.  I won't ever let it go and it will probably descend into name-calling and resentment that can't be traced back to its original source.

A fourth option is that I don't mean a word I say, and don't have any ill-will towards anybody.

The fifth (and most likely) option is that I may not even exist in any form, other than as a projection of the subconscious minds of everyone here.  Which would seem to indicate that the subconscious really just needs to take a big dump, I guess.  ;)

 

(*since of course I count as being my own race.  hairless hens are much more common, you know.)

 sixth option: you are acting rude, obnoxious, and arrogant.

 He isn't.  Dude I like you and I'm on your side on the main issue here, but I really think you are taking getting offended at stuff a little too far now.   I like you and I don't want you to leave, but honestly the past couple of days you are being kind of a bummer.

Nothing Matters Anymore. Climate Change/Global Warming Will Drive Humans To Extinction In A Matter Of Decades

If you want I can send you some samples of some stuff I've done so far with it.  (I guess it would just show you the editing style and showcase how the story is told in this version) since nobody else is interested here.  (I assume... I made a topic a while back and got no replies.)  I had quite a following for it in an anime related forum a while back, but the forum ended up getting shut down for lack of funds and I haven't any contacts from it so I'm disconnected from all my followers of it.  I should probably make an account at another forum and share it there and possibly even get some of my old followers back... but an account at more than one anime forum?  Seems like a slippery slope...

I see my point has completely gone over various heads.  Excellent, most excellent.  By all means, continue to spew the diarrhea everywhere; I'll just sit back and watch.

Oh, and Fink?  The only reason my mom doesn't wear underwear is because she makes your mom wear it on her head.  You thought I wouldn't find out . . . but I did.

 Yeah and I'm starting to take back my earlier criticism when you first made that remark.  But hey, restrooms are a great place to get high.

Moms!

I would love to see that when you are done.  Like you you said there is a lot of filler but the epic feel and action just keeps me coming back to it over and over again.

 I plan to share it publicly when I'm done so that can be arranged.  Although it will probably be a while as I'm juggling music projects (which have my foremost attention), this project, and a ROTJ fanedit.  The fanedits are kindof on the backburner right now as I'm more concerned with music, but they'll happen eventually.

167 episodes to 7 movies might not be feasible though.  Maybe I'd be better off just making smaller features of specific plotpoints that cut out filler.  I don't know if that makes any sense or not.  Maybe I'll work on this some today because I'm feeling terrible I have food poisoning but I'm not the type who can sit around watching TV in bed.  But sitting at a computer working on edits is much more practical than breaking out the guitar and playing heavy metal haha.

The only light beer I'll drink is the occasional Budweiser (never Bud Light) which is only 0.1% away from a regular beer anyways, and Guinness which is 0.9% away from a reg.
I'll never really understand the Light beer thing. If people drink it to cut calories and carbs, there's not enough difference for it to even matter. And it always tastes like crap. Why won't they just have a normal beer? Why is Bud Light so popular?

Also, I lied. I'm not starting with my trusty stand-by, Levity, but instead I'm about to kick things off with another favorite, The Sixth Glass.

 Well I was joking about the bud light and pabst and natty, every body knows those beers are bottom of the barrel!

The calorie thing isn't ENTIRELY true though.  Sure 50-60 calories a pop may not seem like much in one beer.  But let's say someone (and we're not going to implicate me in this or anything...) drinks a 6 pack of beer a day.  That leads to calorie loss of about 300 a day.  That's a chipotle burrito you didn't eat!  And in a week that saves you 2100 calories... a whole days worth of calories.  I would go out on a limb and say that someone could lose about 6 pounds in two weeks just by switching to light beer, even though that person wasn't really overweight to begin with.

Food poisoning is the worst.  I'd rather have dial-up.

 I agree, I have it today.  Weird that I got it right after you.  I wonder if it was from having a post next to yours.

Anyway I called in to work for the first time since I've been there today because I have food poisoning.  I feel like a piece of shit, I hate calling in and I always feel like I've let everybody down and that I'm going to get fired.  I know it's ludicrous to be afraid of getting fired for calling in one time since I started working there, but I'm a paranoid fuck I can't help it!

I must confess that I love Inuyasha as well...  Although as you said it does have bad things about it.  Annoying cliches, over the top voice acting (the japanese dub is overall much  better but Inuyasha and Seshomuru themselve's voices in english are better) and annoying random outbursts from characters.  Also the teenage love thing is kindof annoying at times.  And there's ALOT of filler. But there's just something about the bigness and epicness of it, and the overall story arch is very nice I think.

Which is why I have an on-again off-again personal project of mine that aims to edit down the entire series into a sortof series of fanedit movies.  The show has 167 episodes, over half of which are filler, and even the good episodes have unnecessary moments.  I aim to edit out things nonessential to the story, things that are annoying (Inuyasha in my edit is no longer a pouty stereotype teenage bad boy, just a troubled soul who can be moody sometimes.  but not every five minutes!!!  Shippo doesn't speak much, and Kagome doesn't yell much.  Also none of that damn flea), and stuff like that.  I plan to make it into about 7 films that cut all the fat and annoying things from the essential episodes and piece them together.

Since you like Inuyasha thought I'd post that.

  ...While pot smoking might merely dull the mind and rob the spirit of motivation...

      I'm not sure the word "merely" quite works in that sentence.

      The destruction of human lives and human potential from this "victimless" neuro-active chemical has been nothing less than CATASTROPHIC.

     It isn't only the DEVASTATING dullness of mind and loss of motivation, it truly is a POWERFUL introduction and gateway to EVEN WORSE substances and behaviors.

     OTOH, It's a good thing the lords of media and popular culture are enthusiaticaly dedicated to helping create a society of sober, decent, and empowered individuals capable of recognizing intensely depraved, psycho control-freaks wanting to reduce the children zombified slaves. 8-l

 This post contains so much bullshit I don't even know where to begin.


Also pot definitely doesn't dull the spirit or mind.  Maybe low quality bud would, but high quality will absolutely not.


Is it some sort of health food where the smoke doesn't harm your body and gives you super powers?  I swear all I ever hear about these days is how if everyone just gave up food and started smoking pot all day long every single health problem in the world would go away.

I have been looking but I can't find the studies that state that pot is health food or wonder drug and it will never do any harm.  Is there just some kind of huge cover up?

I don't know because while I can't find the proof it seems to be common knowledge these days that smoking pot is pretty much the best thing you can do for your body and it will cure anything while making your smarter.

Maybe we should just pass a law requiring people to start smoking pot in grade school, so they don't get sick in the first place and they will be more relaxed and not start fights.

It seems to me pot is the answer the every problem in the world and the only reason we have wars and crime is that some people don't smoke post so they are edgy and violent.

At least that is the impression I get from talking to more and more people.

 Most potheads I know make way more sense than you do when they talk.
