    did it acquire a plot somewhere? actual characters? writing and story?

    A few movies make me feel that lump in my throat. And I will admit since I was sick I am more prone to tearing up. It is an after effect of everything and it actually drives me nuts.

    He wouldn't play catch with his dad, and he regretted it his whole life

    and then he sees him back when he was full of life and promise

    and they have a catch

    Honestly though there has to be a market for calculators that have processors whose frequencies approach triple digits. What kind of resources does MATLAB need? Make a handheld MATLAB calculator. The stagnation is terrible!

    I can't get something that looks retarded. That is ridiculous.

    The best use I ever put my graphing calculator to was passing notes on it with a cute senior in my trig class in high school.

    Then we had a day where we were doing seat reassignments and he didn't show up early enough to get the seat in front of me anymore and I got real sad

    I would probably like, show somebody an equation...

    They remade the whole prime series and packaged them together for the wii.


    I think it's out of print or something, but you can find it online.


    Metroid Prime is amazing, and the sequels aren't half-bad.

    what really upsets me is when i don't expect a movie to push my emotional buttons and it does

    like, i went into brokeback mountain, schindler's list, and the road knowing i was going to be watching something depressing as shit (in the case of the road, i had even read the book first!)

    but when a movie sucker-punches me like wall-e that is pretty not cool

    Depends on what you're gonna be running through it. I've had to do calculations and left them running on the computer for a while.

    Granted, at my college the computers were pretty crap, but still. It's gonna be a while before calculators get that powerful.

    Just get a TI calc.

    Man, if I hadn't had a meltdown in high school I could have been doing calculus before graduating and been a math wiz. Now I am doing trig in college.

    I probably did some trig in the ninth grade. Jesus.

    Because TI and HP are assholes.

    This has been my picture of Samus for ages. It is the face that bugs me the most I think. It looks like they crossed Samus and Starbuck.

    The story is generally pretty lame, but Prime 1 has pretty great atmosphere and stuff, and it's really fun.

    It's totally different from the first metroid.

    Motherfucking Comedy Central. Stop playing the Mafia II commercial constantly. Last night they played it twice in a row! For a total of five times in under 30 minutes! I can't get that fucking song out of my head!!

    Incidentally, I was just messaged that I'll be receiving the 360 version for review. It better be good.

    there is no story in metroid beyond "samus lands on a planet, wrecks everyone's shit, leaves"

    the prime series introduced a recurring foe and detailed the mythology, but the story was still very bare-bones

    and while the other m is trying to go plot-heavy, it's by team ninja, so i expect the story there to be pretty dismal

    it's just always been a great, atmospheric series of games that are fun to play, is all
