You're right - your way does sound cooler and more fun. Should I do that?

On Amazon recommendations - I sometimes see them going the opposite route with my recommendations. Like I bought a pair of earrings and they recommended that I might like to now buy a rug.

Also beta I didn't intend on my Archie Bunker avatar to be pointing but I found one online where he is so I had to go with it. Kudos to you.

Amazon tends to be fairly accurate with recommendations for me. Facebook, however, likes to throw random stuff at me as recommend pages. Oddly, I get quite a lot of actresses's pages as recommendations. None of which are related to the films i've liked.

I can't pull off a Sephiroth cosplay. Too short but I can pull off a Harry Potter one. Admittly, an aged version of the character as I have been told many times I resemble Daniel Radcliffe. At least, that is what I assume they mean. One day, I will get a HP outfit and post a picture of me in it. Probably at a con. Though, apparently, i'm "Not to be trusted" with magic. Just because I may have summoned an evil entity to get out of polishing the forum's trophies after being caught selling smilies on the side doesn't mean i'm not to be trusted with magic.

I was born a generation to early for Harry Potter.

That being said you got that thought stuck in my head. I basically think of a redcoat with an absurdly modified brown bess and you with some whacked out over styled japanese hair.

I think you'd make a pretty good Harry Potter - costume wise.

I quite like the outfits for Beauxbatons Academy. I think it's the hats, tbh.

One day, the Dovah will turn into Dovahpotter. Oh and on that day, The Dovah will be sued by Digital Homicide for some reason.

Ghost In The Shell is really good. If I were an employer I would be seriously tempted to hire someone if they liked that film. Too bad it didn't really take off in the States. Oh, right, it has titties in the intro and therefore is bad movie for deviants. Feh.

I actually did that once. I nicked this one scottish's lad's irn bru and then, oh, you'll love this part. It's my favourite part of this tale. I framed a snowman for it! :D

What? Flying is thirsty work, the lad thought I could give him a lift and so I did. I never promised that I wouldn't drop him into a pile of conviently placed snow that would prevent a bit of splattering.

On a bit of a non-silly note, parody adverts need to occur more often.

What's the Scottish scientist's favorite drink?

Ion Bru.


The radio ads in Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines are some of the best things in that game. The Deb of Night is great.

Meh, I'm a nuka cola person myself. Sure, it irradiates me but thanks to my handy pimpboy 3billion, I can keep track of all those rads. It's rad!

This may be the first time in my life I used the term, "it's Rad." I am a 90s kid(ish varying on one's defintion of it but i was a kid in the 90s). Should I be ashamed or proud of that usuage?

I honestly think some of my word speech here on the forums has influenced how I talk IRL. It really throws my mother off is I say m8 or everything's just dandy

I'm blaming Aarah, BC I can

Fun fact: Not all us brits use m8 and luv and 'ello. We merely like the rest of the world to think we do. That and our unholy obession with tea. We may or may not be plotting to steal the world's tea supply for ourselves.

Question, question. To all the female users out there(and guys too, I suppose. Maybe.) But do any of you have any recommendations upon male cologne :wat: And I'm not talking about spray on fragrance, I mean the real stuff

The reason I ask is simple <_< I'm fairly low on my stash at the moment, and it's been the same ole stuff I've used since high school(well, to be more factual, I've gone thru multiple bottles. Same brand tho) I primarily wear the stuff for work

I mean, I could just ask my friend Jessica or another female friend to help tag along to a store and pick something out, but A)I'm lazy and it's hard to schedule mutual free-time mid-day and B)I already know with some of em, they'll get [&@%!] if I don't go along with
selection(Trust me on this, shopping clothes with me is not a rewarding experience)

And for the record, no, I cannot just 'wear' a cologne I like best. Guys tend to pick out smells they appeal to best. Why else do you think guys favor cinnamon spice? Well, most of them. Biologically, it's still influential. Either way, getting a 2nd opinion helps me not smell like.. Well, [&@%!]

Cologne is overrated. I never understood the need for makeup and styling and all that jazz, but perfumes and colognes are perhaps the most baffling. The ones that give any noticeable smell at all just make you smell like a candle. You smell like you sprayed a scent on you in order to mask your natural musk. It's like nature has spent five million years giving apes the perfect scent with which to attract mates (note: I am not an anthropologist), but we've arbitrarily decided in the past hundred years that we can do better.

In my personal opinion, people and especially guys look and smell their best when they're au naturale. Anything else betrays a lack of confidence in yourself, and you deserve better than that. I don't even need to meet you or see a photo of you to say that with full confidence.

Azzaro Chrome is fresh on top with a musky underlayer, so it's a double whammy.

I don't know cologne or perfume well enough to comment, but picking apple would give you the opportunity to make "How do you like them apples?" jokes.

What I will say if that if you use Axe/Lynx deodorant, stop. It smells bad. The best thing to do with Axe/Lynx is gather it all up and throw it on a big fire. That rad explosion would be the best thing it ever contributed to the world.

Thou shall not combine linx with axe or risk being a bad smelling person.

Over here, it is something of a tradition for people to get gift sets of it from their grandparent/grandparents. Usually means it lasts half the year. I prefer the cheapest deodrants. What? I'm a poor man. I do loathe it when it suddenly decides to sting my armpits. Usually, I am forced to elbow drop the can and then do a leg drop on it to get the 3 count to show it who is boss.
