Me too... but I'll work out a definition: Spam Posts are posts that contribute nothing and/or are irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

The Dryness and The Rain - mewithoutYou Hopefully seeing them in concert with Ellie and my brother (only a pipedream AFAIK) so I gottan start listenning to their new album

This is terrible! I didn't know him personally, but still, this is just horrible. RIP

Cold - At The Gates

We're looking at the next guitar hero god right here. First it's passing HMWYBS on easy in Best Buy, next it'll be Full Comboing Jordan on expert 1 handed.

Um, aren't we not allowed to talk about the ads?

I miss the days of RCT 1 and 2. RCT3 just ruined it for me. I'll get back to RCT sometime, but until then, I have no pics.

Wow, that's a really nice guitar. Very clean for being white. I wish I could say the same about mine .. There are pick scratches everywhere on the pick guard from all my overstrums.

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Yyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeessssssssss Seriously, I do that all the time on every forum. I've even deleted some posts

If anyone didn't get my last comment: Primus actually started "Primus Sucks!" chants at concerts. Here are 2 songs that are plaguing my school (some have been doing so for years): Dance, Dance - Fall out Boy -- I hate this song SO much. Through The Fire and Flames - Dragonforce -- Why does anyone like this? It's so cheesey. The guitar is highly over-rated. It's not even good shred.

OMG I know, that is the most annoying thing on earth. My friend was talking about Rock Band (Guitar Hero's Antichrist Child) and his "band". I interrupt with a simple "wow, so you pretend to be a real band? Thats pretty dumb". (censored for political correctness) His response "Wow, you play real guitar and you think that makes you cooler? Whats the best song you can play on real guitar??? I can play through the fire and flames on guitar hero! top that!".quote>

I'd wish for... cake. And Dr. Pepper. Infinite supplies of cake and Dr. Pepper and tooth enamel.

Who is your favorite guitarist and why? Mine in Mike McCready. He played for Pearl Jam. I love the way everything he writes has a bluesy feel and the way he improvises at shows. Here is a video of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhcnKYvzfZc, one of his best songs, IMO. All of the guitar work in the song is spectacular, but if your only in it for the solo, it starts at about 1:30.

I saw this on a forum about 2 weaks ago. I saw it easily. I like bears, could possibly be the reason. wir3d: I didn't click the link, and I'm assuming it's a screamer from VT's reaction. Don't do that please. I'm not trying to back seat mod here, but when I see link on ST, I want to be able to trust it. K?

Oh, by the way, this argument is futile. We really aren't going to change each other's mind. Mac and Windows are two different beasts who have evolved away from each other to grasp the market. Mac = Media, Window = Business. Sure, both computers can do everything, but they are better fit for different things. Everyone's opinions is going to be based on what they are interested in more. It's like arguing about what's better, Pen or Pencil. "Well you can erase pencil" ... "Yeah, well pen is permanent". tl;dr : Different strokes for different folks.

I like Windows. It's not that Mac is bad, I just don't like it as much. There are a few reasons for this. 1) They are not compatible with as much. 2) They are expensive. 3) They are limited in many senses (I won't go into detail in fear of writing a novel). 4) The way some Mac user act. I'm going to explain number 4. It's not all of you; I'm not stereotyping you Mac users. It seems like this happens a lot when it comes to the lesser of the trends of the same kind. I often find people who like Macs also enjoy going around explaining why their computer is better than everyone else's, constantly bringing up Macs superiority in casual conversation, and showing their love for them a little too much. This is evident with other lesser trends, like I mentioned before. For example, someone with a Zune could also be seen doing the same thing. I know it's not right to judge a computer on the people that use them, but I can not stand the Mac commercials and all of the fan boys. It makes me want to stab the Mac spokesman with a rusty machete. (Note: No ST users that I know of fit this description).

Argh Ellie, you beat me to it. I was wasting too much time searching for Google Earth (and expressing my feelings of such in chat). Yeah, and that imaginary dot next to Ellie -- that's me. And the smaller one next to me -- that's Chester, my cat.

I didn't look too closely but I saw the images in your description are naked. Try putting in some HTML to turn them into nice links like this: <.a href="YOUR_URL">TEXT<./a> Remember to remove the periods after the < s or it won't work. Okay -- I just looked through the rest. It all looks good. I don't see anything wrong with it. If you have an extra .35 laying around, you could add a gallery image. I would because when I search around ebay, I go for those first.

A Zune. I'd post a picture, but I'm lazy. Ellie'll post it for me

I agree with Duke here. I'm stubborn in that I'm not going to believe that crooked teeth have an effect on over all health until I start feeling it. My top row of teeth are perfectly straight while my bottom row could use some work to become straight. I'd like my teeth straight, but I don't think I need it. I'll probably get braces, and I'll enjoy the easy cleaning and the nice feeling when I run my tongue across my teeth along with the so called 'placebo effect'. Until then, I''m happy with my train wreck.

I like this thread =] Originally posted by: hym While we're at grammar related stuff, some people say "could care less" when they actually mean "couldn't care less." Look closely at the two sentences and notice the change introduced by the contraction. You'll see that the first suggests you care to some degree or another, while the other indicates that you've hit the zero point.quote> Ah, I hate that too. I remember watching that show that used to play on Nick a while ago, Fairly Odd Parents, and somebody said that I was thinking "Wait, what? That makes no sense at all". It also bugs me when someone says "Same difference" -- What does the even mean? Same to what? If someone can explain that horrid phrase, I'll give you a cookie.

I think your right, krbe -- it's to help distinguish. Like 'sit' and 'sat' which still confuse me

Originally posted by: BlondeTwiggy The word "snuck" (it's "sneaked")quote> Don't forget "hung". Why does everyone want to over complicate things? It's just "hanged". EDIT: After reading the rest of this thread, I have something else: People who think Guitar Hero is a game of pathetic guitar wanna-be's. Ok, here's the breakdown -- 94% casual players, 5% 8-11 year old who think thay are cool and are pathetic guitar wanna-be's, 1% people who really like the game and realize that it is, infact, just a game. Those 1% will probably go on to play guitar if they can get they're hands on one (Guitar Hero happens to be a lot cheaper )

Ok, I'll try that in Paint Shop, thanks! EDIT: For anyone else with this problem and is using Paint Shop Pro -- File > Export > JPEG Optimizer.
