THE PERSON ON THE PHONE WOULD COMPLETELY FREAK OUT. IT WAS F'N FUNNY.


LOL!! Hahahahaha that was funny!! hahahahah

I used to do some prank calls too. The best approach if the person get suspicious, is to pretend you know the person:

"Haha I suppose you know who's talking now, eh?"
"No I don't, who is it?"
"Guess who it is? C'mon... I was on the last family reunion..."
"Is it <name>?"
"Yes! It's me!"
"Dosen't sound like you."
"It's this cold cough cough, I have this funny voice because of my cold, and I decided to call you... So, how's everything."

And when I couldn't keep myself from laughing, I'd hang up in my favorite way:

"OH GOD NO! MY LEGS! MY LEGS! BURNING LIKE FIRE!!"
"What? What are you saying?"
"OH GOS THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING! HELP! HELP! PAIN!!" *hangs up*

Hey, BTW, how's your Nintendo DS working out?


I don't know, I've borrowed it to a friend last week (I owned him one, so I didn't think twice), still hasn't returned


I had friends who like to borrow stuff they never gave it back


So did I. I borrowed and lost my original set of Hero Quest (should be worth a fortune now), some comic books, my Cyberpunks RPG book, my GURPS Magic book... and now this

Feeling kinda like Ned Flanders...

Wow- Now THAT'S a Home Theater!
Time
I think one could assemble such thing without being so rich. The thing is, make sure you never get married and never get kids, so you won't be bothered in "spending money on people you love", that's commie crap. Then, with a shitload of money you'll save, you can buy your home theater thingy. First, make sure you remove all the "Liberace-esque" things, such as the cute curtains and the pillars and stuff. Second, only buy ONE chair, you won't be inviting anyone anyway, it's YOUR home theater. Better yet, don't buy a chair, use the toilet seat instead. That way, if nature calls, you can just do it while watching the movie, which is a good thing, you don't want to stop the movie and then go back. Third, make sure you get your components, such as audio speaker, DVDs, high-res projector and such from, let's say... "alternative" sources, like from people who dosen't speak the same language as you, who will sell things that fell up from the back of a truck or something. Then, you gotta build the whole thing, and for that you hire some illegal aliens and pay them with "Monopoly" money, what do they know anyway... And finally, go to the local walmart and buy all those DVDs from the 5 dollar bin, so you won't spend so much money on films... Of course, you collection will be filled with titles such as "Thumbelina", "Baby Genius 2", "Rocky IV", "Emerson Lake & Palmer LIVE", and such, but who cares! It's all about the home theater anyway...

Kung-Fu Hustle
Time
I've seen it a couple of months ago, and I posted about it back then. Can't seem to find the thread...

Tarantino-esque? Not at all! It's the opposite of what Tarantino does, it's a light hearted fun movie. It's not really a kung fu film per se, and the special effects are somewhat cheap substitutes for real Kung Fu (as I've discussed in the other thread), but it's an OK film. Not as good as Stephen Chow's previous film, Shaolin Soccer, but...

For some reason, I picture a green baby with big ears and a bottle saying "Not the Jedi, Not the Jedi!" (Only funny if you've ever seen the puppet sitcom Dinosaurs )


Oh hell yes! Somebody who knows Dinosaurs!?!? Sweet!!!

But he has to be hanging on the back of his father's neck smacking him in the head while yelling "Not the Jedi!"


With a frying pan too.


I remember the Dinosaurs series. they tried to re-make it with CGI, called The Phantom Menace, don't you remember the young annoying kid with the frying pan beating obi-wan on the head, screamin "not the mamma! not the mamma!"

I didn't want to go to the movies until Episode 3 for some geeky reasons of my own, but hey, I'll give hitchikers a try. What makes me mad is that most people don't even know there's the book... Like when LOTR was released, and I heard people say "Oh but they released the novelization of the movies"... *sigh*

"Oh and guess what they dip their french fries?"
"What?"
"Mayonese"
Pulp Fiction by the way

Over here you can have a hot dog with two sausages, ketchup, mustard, mayonese, chopped vegetables sauce, mashed potatoes, this very tiny deep fried potatoe we have here, cheddar... I used to eat one of those back on grade school years, eating on my way home... I stoped abfter a bunch of pigeons followed be, eating the small crumbs I left behind.

I don't like mayonese. Sometimes, kinda rare nowadays, me and some guys from work go to this "van" where the guy makes these burgers, and this guy I work with, he puts a huge mountain of mayonese, some ketchup and some mustard on top of every bite. He empty a bottle of mayonese on every burger he eats, and he never eats just one. Considering what mayonese is made of, I don't think that's very healthy.

The geekiest thing I've done in my life was, while in college, staying all saturday morning, afternoon and partially night at a computer lab programming a compiler (actually an interpreter) from scratch. Than was very geeky. But it wasn't really in public, so, let's see...

Arguing with a multiplex manager about SW release date problems in public was very geeky, now that I think about it...
Playing RPG at a mall food court with people looking at us screaming and laughing like maniacs... That was embarassingly geeky.
Going on a insane shopping spree at an anime convention last year...
Going to several anime conventions, RPG conventions, B-movies conventions...
Oh, and going to a 007 fans convention, that was pretty messed up, I don't know why I did this... And I was, like, 12 or 13.
Quoting unknown, obscure anime quotes at business meetings and stuff.
Quoting Star Wars in several ocasions, ocasions which I should NOT be doing that.
