    I think people comment on your being a mage, but no one gives a shit if you're a blood mage

    I don't get it. I takes my computer 20 minutes to move the nearly thirty gigs of WoW but over an hour to move five gigs of music.

    Except now it's down to 14 minutes.

    Weird.

    Its all about the number of files and how contiguous they are on disk. Large music libraries are like one of the worst case scenarios, short of, like, a million sub-4KB files.

    Like when you copy an entire user directory, and it hits the internet cache files.

    good catch!

    Mystic River was based on a book written by the crime author Dennis Lehane, who also wrote for The Wire. One of his fellow screenwriters on The Wire was Richard Price, who wrote the fantastic novel Clockers (which was also a huge influence on The Wire's approach in general).

    Do you ever see people who remind you of specific anthropomorphized animal characters?

    Like, something about their features is somehow reminiscent?

    It is eerie.

    Winky I'm surprised you're comfortable mentioning that.

    I know many more awful things in much more detail than I would care to due to the internet, I am not necessarily ashamed to admit it because I imagine you're all in a similar situation.

    I thought the Enlightened liberal thinking on this was it doesn't matter what you fap to as long as nobody gets hurt. Shaming is a tool of the devilish, uptight conservative whereas sensible liberals applaud diversity and sexual exploration and free condoms and legalized weed, etc.

    The guy who actually cut my hair was amazing. It was like a fully scalp massage, very similar to Bugs Bunny in that Barber of Seville cartoon. However, he still looked nothing like a tall anthropomorphic rabbit.

    Without my DVD collection to look at, it is kinda sorta hard to come up with 100 movies that I have seen and really liked.

    I don't just want to list any movie I have seen and went "meh, it was okay" I only want to put down movies I actually enjoyed greatly. So far I am up to 57.

    it probably is with maybe a caveat for pedophilia.

    as many people on this forum will attest, i'm not particularly socially liberal when it comes to sexual expression tho.

    my puerto rican friend is having me over for dinner tonight. i am thinking about bringing rum and supplies to make dacquiris.

    then again, his wife is mexican. maybe i should bring supplies for margaritas

    she's from puebla though. i'm not even sure they have tequila down there. i know that instead of the mariachi kind of stuff, they listen to this music called "banda" that sounds to me like austrian waltzes or something. maybe they just drink riesling and beer or something.

    i guess picking up some wine would be a safer bet probably.

    that is my sense of it.

    telling people to knock it off when i'm around doesn't count as "sexual shaming" to me.

    then again, some would disagree
