Mister Jack

What exactly was this guy a professor of?

I usually throw out the best and worst option automatically in debates like this and try to think somewhere in between. I am of the belief that tech is always improving (not enough to completely replace oil right now, mind you) and that when the price of oil goes up, people are going to do less driving and flying. I know that isn't the only way oil is used but it's a huge percentage. Industrial first-world nations are extremely wasteful with the stuff, and eventually they'll have to either stop wasting it or go broke, and nobody likes being broke. As they say, necessity is the mother of invention. Basically, I think conservation will be kind of a pain in the ass to work with but we will be able to keep up our current standards of living, more or less.

So in regards to the global energy concern, there seem to be five main schools of thought. Which one do you subscribe to? If you believe something that the poll happens to overlook, post about it.

What is all this "WTF...I hate IPB" that comes up when you click a user's pop-up profile?

I don't download games that are still commercially available at retail, but I find it hard to sympathize with companies that use restrictive DRM. It's pretty much either buy the game and get all this borderline spy shit on your PC or download it and bypass all that. What do these companies expect to happen?

KFC costs more than Chinese over there?

Mud you just reminded me of a good one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKjJode--jI

Yeah I hate that too. If you don't want your images hotlinked, just don't have them come up at all. Don't be dicks about it.

Facebook and RSS icons are indeed not very mascot-like Oh ho, you fixed that one fast.

Keep in mind this is just a sharing of personal opinion rather than predictions on any actual course of action Sony would take.

I don't think it'd be a stretch to say that a lot of people bought Xboxes for Halo, though. Something else to keep in mind about Sony is that Move game they're publishing featuring characters from Jak, Sly, and Ratchet. So even if they aren't tied down to one specific character, they certainly aren't ignoring their marketability. There are more than just those three of course, but it's the first example that comes to mind.

Nintendo is inarguably represented by Mario, and the Xbox is less officially represented by Master Chief, star of the Xbox's first major hit. The Playstation brand, though, seems to have mascot characters and franchises all over the board and people don't always agree on which one should or does represent the Playstation brand. So here is my question to you. Which Sony exclusive character should represent the Playstation?

He's got you there, Yant.

Officially Technically. Figuratively? I like New Years because it means the stupid bullshit of the previous year is officially in the past.

This is still my favorite Aqua song. Ever heard it in Dutch? I know it says German in there but it's Dutch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5dpjA_i8l4

It's a shame that we don't have any of those in New York. Seriously? You don't have any? In New York of all places? Culianry center of the world my ass! Anyway right now I'm eating little pulled pork sliders and some carrot sticks.

Watch yourself, son. I'll hit you with your own best friend.

Looks like I'm gonna be doing some snacking tonight at least.

Ahem.

It is when you're not good at racing games.

We can?

I would prefer for votes to be anonymous.

Racing them isn't fun. That's how. Edit: I'll put it like this. Where GTA is concerned, have optional races if you want, but don't make it a required mission. And RDR horse racing was required? Seriously?
