I loved 28 Days Later & The Ring. I realize that some people didn't find the latter movie scary at all. But I'd be lying if I said I was one.

Shiba Inus have been my favorite dog for years, this video just gets me pissed that I'm allergic to dogs again.  I'm allergic to the point where I may lose my ability to breathe sometimes

Even the lower allergen breeds? I need allergy meds on hand unless I'm dealing with the dogs with certain types of hair. While my fav breeds are dobes and pits, I settle for breeds I can breath around.

He looks like a little teddy bear! I can't wait until some day when I am able to get a (actually I want two) dog again.

Wait wait wait a minute! When Cloud attended to help her, she was clearly knocked out... Wasn't she? That is how it happened in Crisis Core.

I think this was an inconsistency. In VII Tifa is completely unconscious when Cloud tends to her.
However, in the anime Last Order, Cloud tends to her, she wakes up, says something like "you came just like you promised", and then passes back out.

I was annoyed when that happened, because I didn't see a need for them to insert it. But I just chalked it up to "She probably didn't remember waking up and seeing him, because she was so out of it."

So yeah Seer, I think she just didn't remember waking up and seeing him.

I just got some thing in the mail saying the NVIDIA card I had in my computer was the same kind recently involved in a lawsuit. That NVIDIA had installed some cards that created problems, and I could be entitled to something or other.

My laptop's fine, so I didn't care and I tossed the letter. But, yeah... I'm sure that's somehow applicable to this thread.

Hm, probably this

I spend my free time reading things like this: http://i.imgur.com/bFeoW.jpg

And then I realize that my lunch break is over, and I have to go back to work. Lame!

(Actually I just got back from vacation, so I can't really complain.)

I thought the dead comment made sense. Ultima already said he was planning on having her fade out at the end. So she's definitely dead this whole time, just still around.
Kinda like Starbuck in BSG. Except Aeris understands what's happened to her.

I liked the video. I liked the song you used, as well. kudos.

I think I know somewhat how you feel Bosola. I do that to some degree myself.

I am an introvert, but my job requires me to be very outgoing, energetic and heavily involved in interacting with everyone in the department. I do a good job during the day. Everyone likes me, I'm a hard worker, easy going, etc. But I come home every night exhausted, just dying for alone time. But being in sales... I can only imagine.

And while not playing sounds nice (especially when you're on your way out) it always comes back to references. If your next job (not this coming one, but the one after) needs more than one reference, will being different tomorrow affect their opinion of you.
Employment is such a tangled web.
At least IMO. I'll be glad when I'm not doing this anymore.

Retirement's only another 37 years away.

Slightly related local band song (caution for strong language).

I've probably invested more hours in Tetris and Panel De Pon than most other games, and they are puzzles with no story whatsoever!

Touché. I had been of the mind of the general consensus. I now must retract my thoughts! I spent an entire year playing nothing but Snood and Super Bounce Out.

In the imaginary world where this game is made, I hope the swag is customizable like in SSX. I loved buying new snowboard gear and clothes.

The only reason the books are being threatened is because they know it will get a rise out of the Muslim communities.

Actually I think it's just because people love book burning bonfires. Harry Potter, comic books, all sorts of religious works... I think bumpkins just get bored and aren't imaginative enough to come up with a new pastime.

It looks nice, but I think the level of the mako might be too high. It always seemed like a mighty drop before the pool. The pipes end at the 'water level' and steam rises up from the surface around the pipes.

And yeah, it's mako. Think the upshoot of Lifestream at Mideel. Basically radioactive. Very bright.

I thought the same, too. I think the level of the liquid should start where the steps end.
But it looks nice.

That sounds like fun. I'd play it.
There's a horse racing game like that at the Dave & Busters chain. I like going head to head against other people in that. I'd def like it more if it was chocobos, and I could spend more time leveling them up and getting them better equipment.

Maybe there could be an edition question when you register.
And if it's filled in with the word "ultima" you're automtically a muted user.

I do think it's possible that the TA demo is going to bring in hoards of plz halps.
