I'm curious about what you thought about it.

 

I watched about...15-30 mins of it. I couldn't help but make fun of the dialog and acting.

 

 

Same people that had a part in that weird Dafoe movie right? The one where his johnson is stabbed by his wife. Yeah..really fucked up.

Remember when I said most of my books got destroyed because my room flooded?

I forgot that I could scan the barcode on my damaged copy of The Hobbit with the Amazon app. Well, I did just that, though it seems that my new copy is a recently printed edition. You know, the giant ugly emblem that will make it look like I started reading the book because of the recent motion picture.

 

But hey, at least it's not a stock photo from the movie on the cover!

I guess its a purchase, I upgraded my comcast internet service to include Cable TV with HBO and faster internet. All for 20 dollars less that what I was currently paying. Now if Comcast can actually let me use the services I asked for, then I'd be happy.

 

Yeah, but for how many months?

That cover looks like a dragon wrapping itself around a huge pie. His eyes say he's ready to eat it, too!

I thought it was a cookbook.

Hobbit:

Serves one

 

Lightly braise the hobbit with a series of riddles. Persevere until the hobbit is tender, juicy and sweet.

 

Potatoes

 

Potatoes can be mashed, boiled or stuck in a stew

 

Rabbit

 

Do not put this in a stew. You stupid fat hobbit, it ruins it!

My father is kinda tough to shop for, but there are some areas where a gift can rise to the occasion.

Got it on Amazon back when it was $27.96, though I added $2.99 (in total $30.95) for gift wrap and message. Only downside is that it may take a week or two for it to ship as I imagine many people jumped on that steep discount.

 

Only person who needs a gift now is my mother, but she really is the toughest to shop for unless you get lucky and she actually wants something. Usually I just piggyback onto whatever my father gets her. :lol:

Huh, I can see the image just fine. Blu-ray collection of Scorcese films: The Departed, Goodfellas and The Aviator.

 

Yeah, I think the problem might be on your end, FDS, because I can almost always see hotlinked images that you say are broken.

I use NoScript and DoNotTrackMe which blocks a lot of third party content. So it enforces the very good habit of not hotlinking. Considering everyone should have learned how not to hotlink when they first started using the Internet it shouldn't be a problem. It's barely a step away from posting a screenshot into a word document.

I'm pretty sure everyone here knows how to not hotlink if they want, but it's more work and I at least just don't care enough. I use imgur/dropbox to host pictures I've taken myself, but otherwise hotlinking is just easier.

In FDS's defence, the link did not work before for me either, and you can see from FDS's screenshot that Strangleove's post was edited again 5 hours later, which was before anyone else said they could see the picture, which I too can now see, so it probably was a dodgy hotlink.

 

I personally only hotlink from big sites - if I can only find a picture I want on a small/personal site I will put it on imgur.

 

Oh, and I can't believe it's been glossed over that there is a gorgeous puppy in our midst! I hope we will have a lot of photos in the pets thread, TCP. Is that an actual photo of yours?

I saw it before that. Plus it shows Strangelove edited it 1 minute later, not 5 hours. :s

 

Either way, yeah, I don't like to hotlink...and I'm too lazy to go through hosting it myself (plus it seems like unnecessary bandwidth wastage, even if it's minor), so I just write them out.
