    Finally finished siding the house I've been working at. Now I have quality time to do some game dev work and watch some movies in my backlog. Time to start up a 31 horror movies in October run.

    Do they have to be hardcore horror, or will you allow pitch black humor that has horror elements?

    Not being perfect or being on top felt good today. I don't know why but I felt good. I felt good. I mean not that I'm ever perfect , oh ahahahah. No! What I mean is , I had an inferior project today in class and I felt fine. I felt fine. I felt fine...


    Good night everyone!

    You sound like a scared child who's trying to tell himself there's not a monster under the bed; a lunatic in a padded room; or a soon-to-be horror movie victim.

    You should do some random movie, wholly unrelated to the others. So, if someone was looking through your review list, they'd have a 'WTF' moment.

    As I was just thinking about this, I'll suggest Cabin in the Woods as an interesting pitch black meta-horror satire. Some people love it, some people hate it, so it would be interesting to see what you think of it. Unless you've already seen it, in which case, I withdraw the suggestion.

    I did see it. It was one of the better Scooby Doo movies I've seen. Everything the Scooby live action movie wanted to be, and didn't have the courage for.

    I'm so sore. I can't do this guys. I can't do this. I'm trying, but I can barely get my work done and now my damn computers are dying on me. I can't do this. I have no options it feels like. Everything is so hard. I physically can't do it. I've been in therapy for two months and I thought I was better , but it's too much on me . I hadn't known it would be so hard and now my computers and dying and the back and forth driving and all that walking and all that physical ness could literally put me in the ER or on the couch for weeks . FRAK!!!!

    Gods help me .

    It's worrisome though. Hope you get better, hanging. Keep hanging in there, I guess? If there is anything we can do to help, let us know.

    Just for listing Aliens as horror.

    ...and The Hitcher better be the original, if it's the remake, I'm going to slap you silly.

    But you don't want to claim that hangingwithmonkeys is he who must not be named, do you? :eek:

    The original. I only care because it's Rutger Hauer. Also my moustache is a Batman symbol.

    Got a new laptop coming tomorrow!

    Its an Acer 5755g.

    i7 2ghz, 8gb RAM, 2gb 540m, 500gb HDD

    Its a heck of alot better than my ol' HP DV6 (Turion II 2.4ghz , Radeon HD 5470, 4gb RAM, 500GB HDD).

    But I ended up getting it for about the same price so I'm very happy.

    (Sure, this laptop's performance isn't stellar, but for £560, I'm laughing really! XD (Plus I don't mind downtuning graphics a bit))

    Only if you pay extra for the Blendtec (TM) USB blender accessory.

    It's impossible to sleep on my left side these days, now that my heart is enlarged. Damned annoying actually.

    Is this common? I've heard about various different injuries, health problems. But you're the first to suffer from a large heart. :D

    Stop listening to your heart and start listening to your mind.

    Seriously, the sounds of synaptic transmission are almost negligible.

    Or just try sleeping while standing (or sitting upright). You may think it is impossible to sleep while standing, but I can assure you it's perfectly doable when you are tired enough.

    For the entire night? I don't know....sounds like you'd fall over or wouldn't be able to walk the next day.

    To be fair, it was live television. It's hard to control that stuff. Still really awful.

    Live minus a 5 second time delay. There's a guy whose job it is to watch the live feed and cut it if something happens.
  • edited September 2012
    I dunno. Considering they cut away, I don't think they really realized it happened. Even with 5 seconds, it can be quite the shock.
  • edited September 2012
    Yeah you can see the disparity between the video and Smith pleading for them to turn it off before the gunshot goes off. It's pretty tragic.

    It doesn't matter. The producer had one job. He screwed up the only thing he had to do on the worst thing he could screw up on, and by several seconds. Feel bad for Shepard Smith. He gave a really heartfelt apology. You could see the shame in his face. This isn't like the time he accidentally said blowjob on the air. This was a serious mistake. Not everyone is desensitized, and someone could have been seriously affected by witnessing that on the air. It might not be the Budd Dwyer incident but it's still terrible.

    Legitimately can't think of a worse thing Fox has ever done.

    Today Fox was broadcasting live footage of a car chase (alleged carjacker). At the tail end of it, the suspect got out of the car and shot himself in the head. They didn't manage to stop that part going to air.
