- You want soap, you pay extra. -- nm - Dr. Nick Oct 17, 15:12

ACORN hit with vandalism and death threats. -- (link) - Mop Oct 17, 14:51 5
- Republicans had the Supreme Court to commit voter fraud for them. Nothing ACORN has been accused of, even approaches where the voter fraud bar is now -- nm - sheba Oct 17, 15:08 1
  - And some of what they've done was required by law. - the liiojlu with a j Oct 17, 15:26

  - I'm just hoping that Fallout 3 will hold me through until Diablo 3 dominates my life -- nm - kilboooo Oct 17, 14:44 5
    - from everything I have been hearing, it will. (IGN reviewers played it for 9 hours and were told they only saw something like 5% of the game content) -- nm - Jovian Oct 17, 14:48 4
      - I'm really considering that I will plan my purchase of a widescreen LCD to coincide with the D3 release. Time to ditch the 19" CRT -- nm - kilboooo Oct 17, 14:49 3
        
        I'm timing the purchase of my next computer for the D3 release. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 17, 15:03
        
        we share the same brain on this apparently, I was in Target today and almost pulled the trigger on a $299 19" LCD magnavox, *just* for this game. nm - Jovian Oct 17, 14:51 1

  - I'm getting gears from a coworker today -- nm - Beryllium Oct 17, 14:41
- Rockband 2 (I still get 6k fans for every song/set I play, very annoying bug) and now Dead Space as well. nm - Jovian Oct 17, 14:40 10
  - The "6k" fan thing isn't a bug. Once you've achieved XXX amount of fans, you have to start playing at a higher difficulty in order to gain more. - Trish Oct 17, 14:45 9

        maybe you'd be more effective if you didn't slip it into his underwear band stripper style -- nm - kilboooo Oct 17, 14:49 2
        
        Strongbad is *good*. RB 2 lets you play with anyone online and we hooked up one afternoon. - Trish Oct 17, 14:53 1

  - like I said, similiarities to Bioshock, but production values are top notch and its pretty scary and unnverving too. nm - Jovian Oct 17, 14:36 1
    - You got a crazy computer screaming at you all the time? Maybe talking in a sing-song voice? - Mop Oct 17, 14:54
Are there any Canadians going to see Passchendaele this weekend? - Walt_Disney Oct 17, 14:22 7

I didn't mean to call mmtta a classic - it isn't (at least not yet) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 17, 14:10
silly question, if i was to find a copy of obilivion, would I be able to play online with crash or trish? -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 17, 14:10 8
