The ####er didn't even stop. I was told I was lucky my car didn't flip and roll. The snow kept things slick so my car slid down sideways.

[Kakizaki]

Brett Farve plaque

???

On a side note, remember what Kupo listed last year?

[Sayckeone]

No, what did he list?

[Kakizaki]

I can't really remember, but it was kind of sad -- like getting a carton of cigarettes sad.

[Dead to Rights]

Brett Farve plaque

Does it come with the small piece of Brett Farve's actual jersey, Darren?

[Arjuna]

I can't really remember, but it was kind of sad -- like getting a carton of cigarettes sad.

Lol reminds me of my friend Kevin who I think got a joke kit for Christmas.. that being the only thing. It was exploding peanuts, a woopie cussion and some other stupid ####. I'm like come on man what are you 6 years old?

[Kakizaki]

^Yeah, that is pretty cold.

[EvilHero]

I can't really remember, but it was kind of sad -- like getting a carton of cigarettes sad.

Last year, Kupo's dad bought him a sword he didn't want.

I'm visiting my mother for the next couple days so I haven't really had time to take inventory.

Someone did go into my unlocked car Christmas night and stole my brother's laptop, nintendo ds, 100 dollars in christmas card money and my ipod fm tuner. Guess Christmas wasn't enough for the thief, had to steal other people's #### too :roll:

If this is the same friend I'm thinking of, maybe he should have gotten some Gold Bond powder instead.

[Gillian Seed]

Brett Farve plaque

I wish...


Sorry to hear that EH.

[Dead to Rights]

Well it's pretty obvious his dad was hoping for ritual suicide. Cheer up dad maybe next year, eh?

[Sayckeone]

I wish kupo's dad posted here.

[EvilHero]

I got 300 dollars from my father, which i'm supposed to use strictly on clothes and not bills like last year :P

I received mostly money from my other relatives, a few shirts from my grandmother.

My mother got me the following:

[Master Zombots]

As in games, the only games I got were Final Fantasy XII - Revenant Wings and Drawn to Life. Both seem very good. :)

[SlaughterX]

Pic of the only real present I got...

http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb181/Genma_Gouki/Watch.jpg

[Kakizaki]

You love giant pictures.

[Futomimi]

Seriously...
Slaughter, I am getting pretty damn sick of having to adblock every picture you post just so I'm able to read threads.

[SlaughterX]

Then go take some pills or something. :)

[Arjuna]

What do you guys have for resolution? 800x600? It's really not that bad unless that's what you set your monitor to.

[Kakizaki]

I don't want microscopic font.

[Gillian Seed]

I can adjust my font level with ctrl + scroll wheel on my mouse and still have a high resolution.

[Futomimi]

My eyes are bad fool, I get migraines if I try to read much at 1024x768 or higher.

And Slaughter it's called ####ing resize. It takes an extra two seconds in paint. I know that I'm not the first to say anything about this.

[Kakizaki]

I get migraines as well, and you are right. Everybody here has made a comment about this at one time or another.

[EvilHero]

My pictures aren't much smaller than Slaughter's, are they posing a problem too?

[Dead to Rights]

My pictures aren't much smaller than Slaughter's, are they posing a problem too?

Slaughter already edited his photos. They were about ten times bigger yesterday.

[RayFoxSith]

Still, that's a nice watch, Slaughter.

[Sayckeone]

Not me. I have no problem with the size of his pics, as they fit perfectly on my monitor.
