New Testingstan

Favorite memory: 9 years old, after seeing Star Wars on the big screen, discovering that the SW Opening Theme was on the community center's jukebox, and even better, it was THE DISCO VERSION!1!1!1! My friends and I must have spent hours running around in circles in the gym with our hands out like we...

Good for you, Gands. What's your new gig?

I bought myself three albums today, and they are the fucking dope.

French Touch all the way

I really like Pink's new CD and I think I'll buy it. Too many YouTube Vevo views has me feeling guilty.

Horse piss, of course. It's a real thirst quencher.

My glass is half full.

We have plenty of oil and natural gas within the borders of North America, Canada and the US get along pretty well, and nobody in the Middle East with the exception of Israel are our friends. I say get out. Oh yeah, and fuck Saudi Arabia.

I would recommend reading everything Charles Stross has written. He's covered most of your topics in his SF, including mind uploads and no FTL.

Oh yeah and we shouldn't be doing anything in Syria. I really don't want us to be Al Qaeda's Air Force.

I use my M-W Ninth Collegiate dictionary to explain words to my eight year old, and my Oxford English dictionary to fill in the gaps.

So maybe it's just the whole raised Catholic thing, but every time someone says, "May the Force be with you," I want to reply, "And also with you." :lol: I have the same issue. Now we're supposed to respond, "And with your spirit." I'm still getting used to that. That ...

I have the same issue.

If you walk off Rue Bourbon at night, carry a gun. And learn to sweat. A lot. That aside, it's a fun town for a young man.

The Testing Chat IV: Spice: The Final Frontier!

I was living on Staten Island for about a month. I managed to get out of there two days before Sandy hit. :v You live a charmed life, Zod! Check out northern Virginia, out Centreville or Tysons Corner way. It's expensive but less so than Noo Yawk, easy rail access to DC, and there may be a local co...

I'm sorry you live in the Bronx. The rail lines are much better in Queens.

Of course, you could have settled into Staten Island. That would have been a real shit sandwich.

Your avatar disagrees.

Also 8 months of living in New York kind of numbs you to the realities of actually living here and really makes you disgruntled. My wife stepped off a PanAm plane from Havana at JFK and grew up in Astoria, Queens. We've been back to the Big Apple many times since she left it 20 years ago. I think N...

In my opinion, it's because here there's no tension of trying to convert each other to our respective "ideals". I mean, Chocs and me have radically different political views and we're still able to discuss things together without having it turn into a turd-fight, because we don't try to s...

Please try to stay on topic and refrain from baseless offensive stereotyping. Thank you! Right-wing movements in the USA include actual neo-Nazis. These are the groups that are suspected/accused of planting bombs/shooting people when the phrase, "right-wing terrorists" is used. These are ...

I remember one of the first Star Wars books I ever read was a collection of Brian Daley's Han Solo adventures. In those novels he's still very much the person he is in the fist movie. He sort of cares about some people, but he's still very much in it for the money. Reading those books gave me a muc...

Yeah you and Flagg show some proof you slandering pissant little shit tips. Jump to conclusion much?

I don't know how it is on the other side of the Channel, but apparently here it has become quite usual for common soldiers to not be paid for one or several months, forcing them to get into debts just to continue to feed their families. A situation which began with the previous, right-wing governme...
