  1. The Orange Box for PS3. Already have all the games on PC, but I'm a huge nerd so I bought it again. Half-Life 2 looks nice on console, though!
  2. Interesting test, I always wondered which murderous dictator I resemble the most. Oh, and guess what my result was
  3. Well a site I found useful is http://www.russian-online.net/de_start/lektionen/slovarik.php?sel=1&datei=slovarik.php - sadly it's only in German. Might be useful if you're trying to learn both?
  4. So let's revive this thread already! I always wanted to learn some more languages, I had some courses some time ago, but tried learning some more recently. Browsing through this topic I was surprised to see that so many people are interested in learning German (my first language)! I of course support this, although I have to admit I have no idea why you'd want to learn a language that even I have to admit sounds so... goofy. I think a teacher at my university said it best: "French and Italian sound sexy and exotic and German just sounds ."
  5. Trying on these new trousers. And about to chat with Zaraki, apparently...
  6. I had some Russian courses too. It's still pretty basic, but I've been trying to learn some more. OT: Trying to call my doctor
  7. Why isn't Denton drinking, swallowing very disgusting chocolate flavoured burgers and moldy soy?
  8. Noapte bună somn uşor Şapte purici pe un picior Şi pe celălaltă parte Ca să poţi dormi mai bine in noapte (I tried Google translating it, but I still don't really know what that means. Anyone here speak Romanian?)
  9. Awkward
  10. I usually use the full editor because I'm paranoid about messing up quoting and stuff and want to look at the preview of my post
  11. Banned for thanking someone
  12. I think you wanted to segregate white and black people?
  13. JESUS, JEB, WHAT THE F***
  14. , but humanity's progress as a species is drastically slowed down, not by the limits of laws, not by the limits of technology, not by the limits of physics but by the limits of our self-control. I ask again the existential question: Are we the masters of our own thoughts? Are we truly free within ourselves? Could there really be something holding us back, something that is maybe so familiar to us that we don't even see it? Instinct simplifies the things for us, so instead of seeing the whole picture, we only know the basics of the situation. This is a simple fact, but one that makes instinc a very dangerous thing. Stepping away from letting instinct control us is what let humanity evolve in the first place. It is as we started thinking with our brains that we became human, in the process leaving behind all those other animals that still left instinct to think for them. Us humans can now think of not only ourselves, but also of those around us. We can now assess situations and make judgements based on careful thinking and consideration, rather than first impulses. We can also get an idea on the feelings and thinkings of others, effectively defying instinct's first priority - self preservation. Instinct indeed laid the basis for humanity's survival for a lot of years. Set free your mind to set free your thoughts. As for those that still follow instinct rather than intellect, it can be concluded that they simply suffer from insecurity about their own intelligence, limiting their minds to be small, causing their actions to appear unreasoning in today's times, and hindering themselves, and humantiy, from moving towards the future. A future where our minds are no longer controlled by what's left of the dawn of man, but a bright future where we can control our minds individually, thereby mastering humanity's final enemy: ourselves.
  15. For some reason I've been excited for Christmas all month.
  16. Hungry. Haven't had breakfast because I got up so late and it's almost lunchtime anyway.
  17. I just took the test again and now I'm "Adventurer (ISFP-T)" "Riskier behaviors like gambling and extreme sports are more common with this personality type than with others." "[...] Anything that interferes with that, like traditions and hard rules, creates a sense of oppression for ISFP personalities." "ISFPs can escalate small things into intense competitions" "it takes time to build enough trust with new friends to open up and feel natural." I think I might have misinterpreted some of the questions or something, because that doesn't sound like me at all... "You may have muttered to yourself, "wow, this is so accurate it's a little creepy" or "finally, someone understands me!" You may have even asked "how do they know more about me than the people I'm closest to?"" No, I think I'm still "Mediator (INFP-T)"
  18. Interceptor
  19. I just made my own cocktail: It's Advocaat mixed with Cream liqueur and thinned with Vodka. It tastes better than you think!
  20. Setting up my new laptop, trying to figure out Windows 8. Man, I hate this design. It's like they just assume that you are a skinny jeans wearing hipster who wants to "share" and "connect" and be "social" the whole time. At least that is the impression I get for some reason...
  21. Why is getting stoned, buying completely rotten clothing filled barrels, wearing unbleached bread?
  22. Suspect Device - Stiff Little Fingers
