  1. Yeah it seems edits are discouraged. $25 for the CAN Hello Time Bomb ? (+ whatever shipping costs).
  2. The last picture. ;) Congratulations.
  3. Your use of actually makes me think you've confused my post as disagreeing with you - I wasn't.
  4. $60 for the Everything Is Automatic single, and both the Canadian & US Hello Time Bombs ?
  5. Catchy. Undoubtedly has a Manics influence to it too.
  6. Well I've done it before too, which is why I know it's not comfortable. lol But I suppose it changes for each venue, crowd, your physical exertion, body temperature etc If you've been to the venue or have one of them in common with Moonlight Graham, then I suppose you're a better authority.
  7. I've got to say, I found the response from the Gun Lobby after the massacre funny as fuck. What ? A maniac has used a gun to devastating effect ? Oh, right, well we'll EQUIP EVERYBODY ! Guns in your lockers now please, students. I think as long as it's written in the constitution and there's overwhelming support for guns, there's little you can do, really. The whole point of them would be to stop any potential massacres, so having a firearm is sort of necessary ! I don't see how the thought of these few security guards carrying guns to protect students is any less worrying than the thought of every student carrying a gun. In fact I'd say this is much safer, and reassuring alternative. Their sanity ? From what I've seen the people who go on school massacres, are nearly always students who've been driven to it by bullying/isolation whilst attending, so their prime motivation for the killings are revenge on those students. Even then, it's like 1 nutter in thousands - what's the likelihood of that occurring in the dozen or so security guards ? I dunno, I think it's a bit of a logical fallacy to believe guns will make you any safer if it's the norm - if everyone's equipped with a gun to defend their home, won't the invader just bring one along with him anyway ? Now, you may have a larger and more powerful gun than the attacker's handgun, but it'll make very little difference when one bullet is more than enough to see you off, no matter what the gun. I think such a lack of trust in government is a little paranoid. Even if it were to turn into Fascist Canada overnight - forgetting that you're a democratic nation and if it ever does get like that, it'll need plenty of support - you think a rifle's going to help you defend your home against your government and the majority ? You'd be outnumbered and unequipped to fight - unless your average Canadian has anti-tank weaponry ? ;) Height of civilization ? From what I've seen/read they it was a country on its knees, demoralized by the Versailles Treaty, bankrupt and broken. Hitler and the National Socialists were seen as a saviour from the ever-growing tide of unemployment - you can trace his support from the very same unemployed: the people suffering most from the depression. These people cherished bread far more than they did democracy, and were far more susceptible to their far-right populist drivel. So basically, if you're citing this as an example for when your everyday Western country has turned to fascism, I've got to say that it's a bit inaccurate. Very true, but I'd just point out guns make it far easier to kill someone. Of course you can't stop a determined killer from killing someone, no matter what weapon you take away, but one pull of the trigger, from a distance is far more enabling than physically having to go up and stab someone/beat them to death, and this, I feel would be enough to dissuade some would-be killers. It's also impossible to go on the rampage with a knife. The only realistic solution, if America decides to ammend its constitution, as there's no way in hell people will be volunteering up their existing stock. I wouldn't - I personally think the 'right to bear arms' is one of the worst rights in existence as long as we're giving our personal opinions. They're not afraid of everything, they're afraid of guns - with good reason, might I add - they're incredibly deadly, don't you know ?
  8. Having two t-shirts on, especially with one of them being long sleeved would be too hot inside. Stick with the t-shirt.
  9. It's not an illusion, it's interesting (at least to me, anyway) to see other's tastes on here, and I'll usually remark when I see a song/band I really like. The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Let's Pretend It's Summer.
  10. About time !
  11. Not a bad run there. The La's - Son of a Gun. Just cannot grow tired of this song.
  12. The Smiths Manic Street Preachers The Verve Oasis Ryan Adams Matthew Good/Band Pearl Jam The Sugarcubes Modest Mouse The Sundays No. It's hellarious.
  13. New Years sounds decent, but I'm not intrigued enough to check out an album.
  14. King of the Hill is/was great. I haven't seen it in ages though. Same with Daria, I loved that when I was younger.
  15. " " Squish. ;)
  16. ;) What a load of shit. Vodka's awful as well.
  17. Well yeah, assuming this old friend can drive, although you'd have to wonder why he's stood waiting for a bus. ;)
  18. God...you can feel the love on that link. Looks to be a cunthive of a site.
  19. ;) The dying old woman - providing you can actually tell, and she's not just looking a bit gaunt. It's not in anyway a difficult decision for me - you're not repaying your mate who saved your life by giving them a lift home whatsoever, and even if you were selfish enough to put a chance for your dream girl's affections before an old woman's life, there's absolutely no guarantees a lift home would get you anywhere with her, and even that's completely ignoring the fact that both your heroic mate and dream girl would most likely think you an utter cunt for your indifference to the dying old woman
  20. Has to be tastier.
  21. You think the woman in the article is a serial pie-thrower ? Pie throwing is so inoffensive I'm actually more inclined to believe this is her first offense. All in all an utter fail, then. I didn't realise Canada had such an extensive history in "pie-tossers". ;) The article doesn't explain why they were thrown though. Obviously a disapproval of the politician, but surely some were sparked by specific proposals ?
  22. Sunshine. Only watched it cos I couldn't find owt else on. Standard sci-fi turn horror / failed expedition effort, but it was alright - kept my attention, but I doubt I'd watch it again.
