As someone who has run websites before... I would have jumped all over that. Then again, i's just a poor boy and well, I ain't on 4chan's level.
I was expecting some Gawker-esque tirade demonizing the site but it was actually way more informative and well-researched than I thought. Kudos.
http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/ -- #comicbooks #gaming Comic book reviews, and some funny gaming/movie musings. http://www.reddit.com/ -- Despite the popular opinion that it's "changed for the worse," I still get a lot of enjoyment from it. http://pellecreepy.blogspot.com/ -- #horror #movies Friend's horror movie website. I like to browse it from time to time and compare my opinion on certain horror films to his own, especially after watching/rewatching one. http://mmo-champion.com/ -- #gaming Still a big fan of World of Warcraft and some of the topics on the message board can be interesting.
World of Warcraft. The whole storyline surrounding deposing the Horde's leader Garrosh being corrupt and actually having to storm the main capital of the Horde itself (Siege of Orgrimmar) has been some of the most fascinating lore in a long time. The Timeless Isle (the current end-game hub) is also very PvP-centric and reminiscent of the Isle of Quel'Danas in terms of constant world PvP taking place and befitting gear/loot rewards abounding.
What's your take on the upcoming third Ghostbusters film that's said to be in the works? Murray has said he won't touch it and was quoted as saying something along the lines of, "Nobody wants to see fat old guys running around in jumpsuits." Notwithstanding, they have a script completed and they're going to go ahead with anyways, Murray or not.
Slinked in here after a bout of ennui with Reddit; found some very interesting topics here that I hadn't seen before. Unlike Reddit, I was rewarded for engaging in thought-provoking arguments and expressing cogent viewpoints as opposed to just agreeing with the hivemind or inserting contrived puns. Not to say I dislike Reddit overall -- Hubski was just a nice, breath of fresh air. Hope to continue to see this site evolve and grow. Idn't it great here, everbody? ::Holds hands out for a Kumbaya session around the campfire::
"Come see the final part of Twilight... Part 1 of the final part that is!" It's more acceptable with the Harry Potter movies I suppose because that last book was a veritable tome, but with Twilight... you can tell it's dragged on in a contrived manner. (Yes, I saw it. Yes, to placate somebody else.) What could have been 30 minutes is elongated into nearly 2 hours and it definitely contributes to hyper-ennui. But most Twilight fans would go to see the movie (with Jacob getting shirtless and Edward pouting lasciviously) even if they split it into 8 pizza pie-esque segments, so what do I know?
What about Nolan's Batman renditions did you find lacking?
I'm going to take a break from smoking. Only 3-4 packs a day from here on out, I swear to you.
LOL.
I also don't care for the Deadpool one. The Deadpool mask insignia is far better than twin katanas for representing him.
Although, when he starts losing, get ready for the inundation of "See, I told you he wasn't any good. I never jumped on that 'Dinkyriding Tebow' bandwagon like you did! Nyah nyah!" Most likely from people whose opinions were the contrary only a week before.
Lucky him. Jokes aside, it's interesting to see their "diametrically opposing" views, coming from someone who is a fan of both.
Facebook is just like drugs and alcohol; terrible in excess. And while FB is nice for avoiding people whom you would just say "hi" to and move on in public or [insert "avoid in-laws, your annoying aunt Myra, other reviled family member joke here], if you are constantly foregoing a face-to-face meeting with someone you would consider a close/best friend for FB chat, or substituting a date for FB banter, then it's time to reassess priorities. I look at it like this: phone sex is good and fine... but I'd never pass up the real thing for it.
