My rant? Scotty's rant.

Only the thing I hate more is when people go and rate a mod based on the screenshot. I've looked at maps where the screenshot was the most beautiful screenshot in the world but when I downloaded the mods (yes, I actually download the mods) the maps were the worst maps I've ever played. And people said they were great.

You need to tell people how the mods fall short. I'd like to get a Kirk Opinion on some of my work.

I hate it, when you fork out on a Widescreen HDTV and you buy a new DVD and it looks like this...

Seriously, stick to one fucking aspect ration... 16:9 or 16:10 is just fine.

You can change the settings for that, can't you?

I hate not being able to wake up early on the weekends like I once did as a kid. I wake up around 1:00 PM now, and it's annoying because it feels like half the day is already over.

Why Cheap Coffee tastes so bad, and they offer all these additives to make it taste better, and all that does is make it worse. I seems near impossible to find a good cup of Coffee for under 5 bucks :/

yes, cheap coffee tastes like battery acid. one time, the salt was mislabled as sugar... so i dumped a bunch in. boy did that taste fucked up. well... i had also been up for about 3 days, so i really didn't care either, and finished it for the caffine.

I recently find myself hating a lot of things about me. There are things that I regret doing; things that I regret not doing. There are goals that I've set, knowing that I'll never even attempt to complete them. There are things I've just "set aside" for another time, that in my mind, I know I'll never pick them up again.

I want to change myself, but I don't have the will power, I don't have the discipline, I don't have control. I guess that's what this is all about. I realized that I don't have control of my own life. I always spend my time trying to make everyone else happy, and end up compromising my own goals and objectives to do so. People say that builds character, but lately it seems like it's building a character that's not who I want to be.

I've been miserable lately. I've been trying to control my own life and keep everyone around me happy at the same time. It's not possible. I've come to realize that just recently. That's where Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) comes in. To me, DDR is an escape from reality. It gets me away from everyone and lets me just stomp arrows for a while. I don't think of all my troubles at home, or at school, and I just stomp away.

In all honesty, DDR is stupid. You stomp arrows, and you get points. The game itself is incredibly stupid. For some reason, unknown to me, it's incredibly fun. I like stomping arrows, I like the simple fun, I like being able to play something

Your amazing, and your not a loser, all your friends who drifted into smoking pot are the losers, You are very inspirational, its people like you who I would love to have more of in this world, If I had a friend like you I never would have made the stupid decision to join a gang, so even though I dont know you I want you to know that some where along the road you have impacted some body's life, you may not realize it but you did, Keep on doing what your doing, and it wouldnt hurt to do something that makes you happy whether it is to make other people happy or just playing DDR. Much love.

Peace

Why Blame the Media for your friends smoking pot? From what I've seen, There has been a lot of Anti-Pot/Drug/Smoking Stuff on daily, and to be honest, Pot was pretty much done by everybody. and if it was easier to control, it'd be legal. That's the only issue with that. It's too easy to grow, making it near impossible to tax. Unlike tobacco, which takes a lot of time, they can regulate it, because John Doe can't cook it up in his garage. Unlike pot, John Doe could cook up a batch with Hydroponics and a heat lamp.


EDIT: New Rant.

When you're watching Youtubes and have the TV on in the background, and you go in and out of the TV, you notice that the subject matter of a certain commercial has been going on for too long, and before you know it, you're watching a lame Infomercial on Tempur-Pedic Mattresses.

it pisses me off how your siggy has to be so fucking small

500x200 should be the size

i was 500x140 pixels and they made me resize it

Sadly, it's still over the limit. 500X120 is always going to be limit. Resize your current, before an Admin busts you.

I hate how everybody thinks Hugeass and Coldsnap are such great maps, when they are truly just overrated and very poorly made.
