luckily there is so much GOOD fantasy and sci-fi out there that I don't have to read a bunch of tired old shit. In a world with Jeff Vandermeer (the fucking KING), Steven Erikson, Jeffrey Ford, China Mieville, Neil Gaiman, and M. John Harrison, I don't have to waste my time on the Goodkinds and Jordans of the world.

i'll take your word for it.

is the new wheatfield out already?

balanced desktop?! edit: where is jpak, he always has the low down on people's purchases.

admittedly I haven't read all of WoT or all of SoT, but based on the four books I read in each series before I wised up, Goodkind is the worst. First, Richard and Kahlan are the worst couple ever in history. Second, all the excuses Richard makes to not go hone his art with Zed are ridiculous, the WORST use of delay tactics to prolong a story I've ever come across in a genre that is rife with them. "Oh Zed I know if I don't train my power it'll get me sick and I'll explode or whatever, but I don't have time for that now because I have to go map the hidden deserts of the sand people or whatever". And in the first book, Darth Vader or whatever the fuck is name is bans fire, because he was burnt as a child? Wow thats so deep Terry Goodkind. And then he gets into all that weird quasi-communist speech that totally comes out of nowhere. Plus in real lilfe Goodkind is a prick who swears he doesn't read any fantasy, when obviously he borrows half his shit from Robert Jordan.

"just bought an MS2 / throw some flats on that bitch"

Truly sad about the passing of Robert Jordan. I stopped at book four and honestly think WoT represents the worst in epic fat fantasy, but still he was one of the big names in this genre I love so much. Actually Terry Goodkind represents the worst in epic fat fantasy. And Steven Erikson represents the best in epic fat fantasy. Malazan is soooo awesome.

whatever, mr. big government liberal. fucking communists are everywhere, even moderating one's favorite audio forums.

well even if Gravel is the most compatible candidate amongst all test takers, its still only 14.20% compatibility, which makes it pretty remarkable that a lot of us are scoring for him. At first glance the site appears to be a military site, which would make me think it is more conservative then not. anybody taken an MBTI? i wonder how many INTJs we have here...

x2. star fleet academy rules all.

http://www.vajoe.com/candidate_calculator.html non-Americans feel free to play as well. My #1 was Mike Gravel, but I honestly have no idea who he is. Other close candidates were Joe Biden and Obama. I admit I am a presidential election junkie. Its like the World Cup for me.

KHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNN!

i'm not a weenie, i'm in the cool crowd. i'm pretty tough.

wow, there is still so much greatness to come. don't worry, I am confident you will carry on.

well, shit. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for others impressions then.

how much is the TakeT regularly?

whoops, actually I just remembered that Tigh was always my favorite, because he is an insane drunk who makes horrible decisions. watching him across those three seasons is like a slow motion train wreck, so awesome.

crap, that sounds really good. i don't have no money right now though. I am about to enter a selling phase though, I can feel it coming on. I've accumulated too much. as for the V3, I've thinking about getting Alex to balanced my W5000 with the new wire.

I watched Season One of Rome religiously, but I didn't watch any of season two. I've got it queued up in my Netflix, looking forward to it.

I envy you. I would love to go back and watch it all over again. Such a fantastic show. Lots of good characters, but I think Baltar is the best.

you don't want to cut the guy currently eating delicious mrs. field's peanut butter cookies.

Deadwood is the most brutally violent show I have ever seen. Honestly I can't even think of a movie that is more violent. I kept imaging myself trying to live in a place like that, its almost unthinkable. But like Nate said, the show also makes me laugh my ass off. The characters are just so rich and well developed, and the dialogue is just fantastic. the gleet episode was a toughie.

indian food is delicious. indeed, one who does not think so or who has not tried it is a racist. a hateful bigot that person would be.

it really is great, you should give it a shot. check out the first few episodes of season 1, and I bet you'll get hooked like the rest of us.
