Am I the only one who doesn't need any more of them, and would rather see the plot continued in more books? :(

The Halo name will be tossed around on a lot more video games to increase sales. Eventually it's going to be like Star Wars were random games comes out every year.

Since this.

Which reminds me of another rant. None of my Youtube Poops are popular.

So its July 4th. I go to a friends house. They were standing on buckets with 1 artillery shell under it. They would light it up and the bucket would move a little. Cool right?

Well I stand on it, (I'm wearing flip flops) my friend Corey lights the fuse, and as it approaches the bucket, I see a tangle of fuses. There were 6 artillery shells, under this 3 gallon bucket. I thought it was 1.

When the ball of fuses lit on fire, it made a big fire that melted that side of the bucket. Now I'm standing on a lopsided bucket with 6 artillery shells about to go off.

The first one goes off, collapses the bucket. The bucket is now nothing. The other five went off about a second after all at my feet. the handle of the bucket at some point flipped up and made a gash on my foot and I have pretty bad burns on my feet. There are purple spots and my feet are red.

But other than that, fantastic day >_>.

Haha, yea. You are supposed to stick them in a tube and when you light them, they launch into the air and make a BIG boom. The explosions were about half of this:

Mods, if I'm not supposed to link videos, jsut take it down. Its a "Firework Grenade" from New Years. Just a bunch of artillery shells. It was half of that... "under the bucket"

Well, that's weird seeing as how you can only have 2 people per Xbox 360.

Lol, it's a glitch you have to perform with a little good timing.

I like to post spam that has no relevance to anything. I was not addressed, so posting a one letter response has no purpose whatsoever, but I did it anyways.

Good job reading two posts above this one.
Unknownv2 told me that it´s a glitch that you have to perform.

I replied, o.

What was the point in that post, seriously?

My rant: Americans changing a perfectly decent phrase; 'I couldn't care less' to make a confusing inverse sarcastic, twisted and ridiculous version... 'I could care less'

Where was the need?

I just want to cry. :(

I don't understand why the phrase changed when it got to the U.S. It doesn't make sense.
Bothers me too. It doesn't even make sense, yet people say it just because it's been said so much that they don't question how illogical it is. Even taken sarcastically, it does not make sense in most contexts, because people don't use it sarcastically, they just use it as a normal phrase. You have to have context that supports the sarcasm for it to be sarcastic, and nobody has that. They aren't saying it to be sarcastic, they are saying it because it's so commonly used that they don't take issue with it. It isn't a clever use of sarcasm, it is just incorrect and illogical. Even if someone were to challenge that they made a conscious effort to be sarcastic by using that phrase, it really just makes them look like a fool because they're still using a phrase that was manipulated not to be sarcastic, rather just on behalf of stupidity, in the first place. It would be saying "I know the people who made this made it wrong, but I use it anyways, because I'm so clever I can change the history and connotation of the phrase." No, it just looks dumb.
