Always I think it is my fault; what if I'm wrong?Not that it is your fault...
The premis is this;
Can We Make A Website Here?
Let's move it, people!!!!
I am stunned; there is NOWHERE in the world more perfect for what I need than here.
Why do you sit on your asses?

When I spend all day for days working on websites, the last thing I want to do in my free time is another one... I really want to do this one though, 'cause I have alot of good ideas, and there's some fun technical challenges for me...
I have the dB (mostly) plotted and implimented, just scripting...
Well, just thinking about it makes me want to do some of it. I just finished a big project, so I'll work on it... right now

By the way, I'm sorry for the grief I've caused

o.0 er?I had thought the problem was lack of content....... so, the real delay is getting someone to get off their ass and actually put the site together?

Interesting progress last night.Yeah, defintly don't let the fact that I haven't finished the page stop you people. In fact, I won't even let you people have the site untill there's something to put on it. There's nothing I hate more then blank websites

You know what? I just had a really nifty idea. How about we set an opening date? Like, a month from now? Something like that. I'll work my ass on the code, and people can start writting articles. We want a really nice opening so, lot's of cool opening content, and (if I can pull it off) a pretty damn cool site design. Sound good? Maybe pull some people off their proverbial asses.

Personguy's was funny, but it wasn't anything like cr0bar's with witty geek humour and such. It was more revolving around penis jokes and there's only so many you can squish out of decent movie.
Posted by Rhydant on May 09 2002,04:11
too many penis jokes == bad form.
Posted by Anztac on May 09 2002,05:11
So... I take it noone likes my idea? We're just going to sit here kicking around... nothing until someone shows something then maybe you'll do something?
Posted by Jynx on May 09 2002,17:26
I, for one, think it's a great idea -- let's make the Kickoff date May 22, so I can have a nice birthday present!
Posted by BlackFlag on May 10 2002,09:35
[insert another case of post im sure i made dissapearing]anyway......
maybe i should get off my ass and start working on the Shadowrun Matrix parody i've been kicking around in my head. If im lucky, maybe Warner and FASA will sue me. btw ed, where to get one of those macrovision boxes you mentioned a while back?
Posted by Rhydant on May 10 2002,19:03

</sarcasm>

Idea #2 (building off of Anztac's):I used to come here and post random silly, amazing, and disgusting stories about my life in the forums. I'd be willing to do some sort of weekly article in that key. Here's a fresh example of my work (written on the spot! w00t!
:Today I went to my Dentist Dr. Povolny. My DigiPen team named an alien race after him (the Povolnians live on Planet Povolny). When I got there I signed in and sat in the lobby. There weren't any magazines on the table like normal dentist office, but there was one big photo book call, "Natures Beauty Spots." I started flipping through it and looking at the pictures. It had some pretty cool pictures. Then an assistant lady said, "You're up, Jeep!" And then asked if I like the mountains and pointed at the book. I said, "No, I don't like nature. It was the only book here." She said, "Oh," and sounded dissapointed. I was mostly kidding, but oh well. I guess early appointments take the edge off my comedic timing.
First she took some x-rays with a big plastic thing that spins around my head. If I was the prop director in a sci-fi movie where some character had to get scanned for some sort of head virus, this is the machine I would have come up with. I've had a theory for a while that these are fake machines that dentists stage to charge extra, so before I this I made sure to put a quarter in my mouth. It showed up in the x-ray. So I guess I was wrong, but they need to stop making those things so fake-looking.
Next I had to sit in the chair thing. She tilted it back and said that it would be a moment. The ceiling was made of those light foamy board things. I tried to could how many dots were on one sqaure but it was too hard. Dr. Povolny came, but started working on some guy to my left first. He was going to use that squirter thing to wash out his mouth, and did that thing where he squirts a little in a random direction first. I guess he didn't realize I was in the other chair cause he squirted it right on my face. Then he realized he squirted me and said, "Think of it as a gental breeze!" I just laughed. And I kept laughing for 10 minutes until he finally came to work on me.
He asked me where I got my shirt, and I said my mom got it for my birthday. He said, "Some style!" and stuck his tounge out. When he was done, the assistant asked what colors I wanted for my braces. I said, "That orange right there," and pointed at it. But I ended up with translucent pink. I guess my depth preception was off because of the leaned back chair. It's ok though cause it looks like it's clear with my mouth's natural redness beaming through.

If there's one thing that I take joy in in my life it's speeding, I do it compusively. I can be early as hell and I'll still feel like doing 80MPH on the highway. People that don't even drive the speed limit piss me off. Almost as much as people that can't use their turn signal (about 70% of Lawrence), I really hate people that don't use their turn signal. The other day I was driving home and I got stuck behind these two people, basically level with eacother one in the left lane one in the right both going about 55MPH on a road with a Speed Limit of 70MPH. It was pretty crazy when this guy didn't want to wait behind them even less than I did and passed them in the acceleration lane for one of the on-ramps. Finally the guy on the right exited and of course the guy on the left was completely oblivious to the traffic and got passed about 20 cars without getting over.Other dumb ass shit, when I go home, the place I have to get on the highway seems to be the favourite spot of people who never drive on highway's to get on, because at least 45% of the people that get on there try and merge doing about 45MPH, when the traffic is doing at least 60MPH in general. Today driving to school, running late so I was doing 85MPH I get behind this guy with this fucking huge afro, it must have been getting in the way because he seemed to have no clue of the traffic around him. he also would speed up to about 90MPH whenever we'd go down a hill, and then slow down to about 80 the rest of the time... it was a real joy to pass him because I ran into him in a really hilly portion of the road (I know what you're saying Kansas hilly?) finally we hit the biggest hill on this stretch of the road and he slows down toa bout 75MPH and I get my chance to pass him (on the right because even though there's nobody for him to pass, he's not getting out of the left lane) so I go to pass him and he speeds up with me I stop when I hit about 90 and he just keeps going. He must have hit at least 110 because he just disappeared in the distance pretty quickly. Unfortunately for him, this portion of the road is notorious for the cops liking to catch people speeding and I see him a ways ahead pulled over.
I see people making the worst left turns here, be it at lights or just in and out of parking lots. You'll see 3-4 people go through a left turn with a turn arrow after the arrow has gone red. You'll see people pull out of parking lots turning left being narrowly missed by oncoming traffic that have to slam on their brakes (I kid you not when I say more than one I've heard that gut wrench squel of of slammed brakes). The amazing thing is I've only seen maybe four accidents this year in town, I guess people are so used to the fucking morons they drive very carefully, I know I do even though I speed, I spend a heck of a lot of time watching out for people trying to either get themselves or me killed
Blah, maybe I should've put this in the rants. I just felt like putting up a sample of my on fly writing as well.

Anztac, I also love your ideas!I've not been around for several days...
Literally don't type as fast yet,
but I think I'm back to annoy one and all!
You go Mr A!
