I was poking around the GIGA quote archives, looking for something to drop in an email to look clever and sophisitcated, when I came across this one:
Behold, on wrong
Swift vengeance waits; and art subdues the strong.
- Homer, Odyssey (bk. VIII, l. 367), (Pope's translation)
http://www.giga-usa.com/gigaweb1/quotes2/qutoprevengex001.htm
In light of that, here's a little gem that came to mind:
"English, mother f&$*er, do you speak it?"

"The first thing you must know about me is that I always stand what I stand for. Good? The second thing you must know about yourself listening to me is that words are tricky.

--Bob Marley

I think that all good, right thinking people in this country are sick and tired of being told that all good, right thinking people in this country are fed up with being told that all good, right thinking people in this country are fed up with being sick and tired.

You must be really, really bored with that 14.4k connection.
Discuss any good loot you got for Christmas here:
I got the online adapter for my PS2. My buddies and I (about 7 of us) are all getting the Navy Seals game (Socom).
Lord of the Rings 4 DVD set -- nice. Fists of Fury and Enter the Dragon -- supasweet. Activision retro compilation. All the Atari 2600 hits from my youth. Complete with 80's soundtrack.
Laser Blast was my first powergaming experience. If you got to 100,000 you could take a picture of the screen and send it in to ACtivision, and they would give you a certificate to say you were uber, or something. One night I was in the zone and powergamed up to 262,000. You couldn't pause the game and there was no way to leave it for more than a half second or you died. Took me forever. I sent in my picture to Activision and they returned a letter that said the camera flash obscured the score. Which was total BS! So I didn't get my Laser Blast certificate of uberness.
the only cool thing i got for christmas was a new guitar amp (my last one got stolen, i miss it, /cry) and it wasn't even a christmas gift... I was just like, "Dad, give me $200 so i can buy a new guitar amp cause i have a concert in 2 days, and it will be an early christmas gift..."
I gave away a lot of cool stuff...
I got splinter cell for xbox for my brother... such an uber game...
and i got my brother and his college roomate simpsons shot glasses, so now they have something new to laugh at when they get piss drunk...
oh, and Axe..
Send them a picture of a dead bunny and maybe they will change their mind.
got neverwinter nights, icewind dale 2, marrowind, battlefield 1942, and hitman 2...
...so meny games, so little time
Got Battlefield 1942 (friggin resource hog, but very cool), Band of Brothers DVD set, James Bond DVD box set, and some other crap. I probably mentioned this in-game, but my wife got a sw33t vintage (1950's or 60's) Coca-Cola vending machine, the kind where you have to open a door and pull out the bottle. Unfortunately (not), since I didn't have enough bottles of Coke, now you can put in a dime or quarter or something and pull out a bottle of beer. :) mmm, beer...
The best thing I got for Christmas was sharing christmas eve and christmas day with William.
yea sure mattee...family, loved ones, blah blah blah...but what did you GET???
;) jk
The best thing i got for Christmas was getting dragged out of bed at 2:00PM after i was out till 4:00am. Having to be at my parents house Period. Dealing with relatives i didn't even know i had, and sitting there watching people stare at me at dinner saying "My my Steven, your such a big boy!" Yeah, i've only been a freak of nature for all my life now :P
Bah Humbug!
I got mostly all cash, some gift certificates, clothes, my mom got me an Xbox, and a GameCube. Got SpilnterCell for Xbox and Super Smash Bros. Melee for Game Cube.
Up at 2pm? After only 10 hours of sleep?!? The horror!!!
:)
wow, 10 whole hours of sleep.... i could use that right now...
My My Stevie you are getting to be a big boy....
Ok, Amberryl, the next best thing I got for Christmas was snow on Christmas day. I'm a girl, I like the mushy stuff. What can I say?
Man, and I thought she really liked the electric blanket I got her. I should have got her a snow-cone machine ;)
My favorite gift of course was sharing the day with my girl, in the swanky little place she got for us.
Other than that... My mom got me a bunch of stuff to hang on the walls of my apt., I got LOTR and the Back to the Future trilogy on DVD, a Simpons bottle opener (it says "Mmmm... beer" and "Woohoo!" when you open bottles with it), gift certificates, some drinking glassses (I keep breaking mine somehow)...
But really, who cares about lewtz when you have a guildie to duo with, in every sense of the word?
Well, not one specific sense of the word, you pervs. What we do alone is none of your business!
When we're alone together. What we do when we're alone apart is also none of your business! Pervs!
By duo I only meant beating on monsters! You know, like woodworms!
Okay, that sounds suggestive even to me.
/em points at himself
Perv!
Ummmm, can somebody take Sodom's posting rights away?
Please :)
Sod, you're babbling. Just say Merry Christmas and be on your way!
