  1. The U.S. just reached 300 million estimated population not too long ago...

     

    This is interesting in that yes Americans definately have a higher than average ignorance level.

     

    However, keep in mind this....I guarantee you they did many more interviews than what are shown, and more people responded correctly. While it's definately true there are a lot of stupid people out there, and they deserve to be exploited to comic effect, but how can we know that this is a fair representation?

     

    Another thing is something I learned in my communications class just today. And that is that most people in going into a conversation with someone, automatically assume that the other person is telling the truth and being honest. Now given this even subconcious preset, and the fact that this interviewer looks somewhat official, having a cameracrew and claiming to be someone of authority, it's not hard to see why someone could be easily tricked.

     

    However...I don't mean to say Americans aren't stupid. Because really...how could you think Canadians have a bloody igloo as their capitol building?!

  2. I haven't heard a word...'course I hardly search the internet for such things...

     

    I really liked the movies, but have yet to read the books (I shall someday).

     

    I've always found books are usually better than their movies counterparts, at least, they are much more immersive.

     

    Hmm, this was a complete tangent!

  3. I'll give ya a nice $6 :P

     

    I have to pay for College! And since I am white, and the rest of my family is, I don't get any money! Lol

     

    :shrug03:

  4. Hehe well they pretty much were not allowed to discuss the case at all... so they came out to the conference and said they would only take questions about hairstyles. They refused to answer anything else.

     

    Yeah, I was reading about that at the end of the article...interesting.

     

    I have a pretty short trim. I hate sideburns.

  5. I dunno...The mere fact that there are such products at such prices certainly casts doubt on the statement that idiots can't be rich.

     

    OF course, there's something to say for the old cliche, "A fool and his money are soon parted."

     

    "...and hence joined with luxurious leather."

     

    or wetsuits.

  6. I mean...can you go wrong with Serious Sam 2?

     

    :)

     

    it all depends on if you're looking for realistic, arcade, simulation...what?

    Oh Buddha, you guys are getting me all Nostalgic...I may just have to run DOS prompt again....

     

    Never played Serious Sam 2 but the first was a blast!

     

    Is the second just as fun?

     

    Are the Ghost Recon games for PC? Cause those are pretty tight.

     

    I don't know about being for PC. But, I do have the latest for XBox 360, wow, it's fun...but how far can a game go in which you cannot actually jump nor fall off things?

  7. We probably want to avoid featuring any one specific map that was made by member's of our community assassinator. Custom map night is really about many maps, and using a single screen shot of one map doesn't really embody that.

     

    I was thinking about perhaps using a combination of screen shots from several maps.

     

    Sorry about that!

     

    and looks like you beat me to making a mosiac :P

  8. Why are you willing to give up your account?

    You're trying to tell me "yttric" is a word?

     

    "a rare trivalent metallic element, found in gadolinite and other minerals." Dictionary.com is my friend :)

     

    I tried looking up the word.

     

    I believe the proper spelling is "yttrium", my Chem 200 class from last semester agrees :D as does my trusty periodic table of elements.
