Quite possibly the best poster I've ever seen to promote a super-hero movie... hell, possibly to promote any movie.

All signs point to The Dark Knight being a masterpiece, and with the movie release on July 18th we'll know soon enough! I can't be any more explicitly clear when I say, please keep all details about the film spoiler tagged.

You may not consider a small detail a spoiler, but at this point I and others have gone into a "media black out" regarding details of the movie, opting instead to wait and just watch it, so please be courteous. Outside of that, anything in the viral is fair game!

I'm seeing the premiere at midnight come the 18th, and I'll be dressed accordingly. Anyone else doing anything similar?

C'mon, don't be shy... let's put a smile on that face! 8 )

    I've heard in this one Batman
    IS THE GODDAMNED BATMAN.

    Also I suppose at risk of getting nerd-technical on the RAM thing:
    If you've got an ABit motherboard, and are considering getting some Corsair brand RAM, get the jet-black kind with the blinky Star Trek lights on 'em and not the "budget" puny human RAM. I don't know what the blinky lights actually do. Maybe they're there to ward off ghosts.

    No the lights are there just in case you shrink yourself (and a plane) to miniture and need to fly a covert mission inside your PC. That way you won't crash into your RAM......though some of us just can't afford that level of safety.


    The Dark Knight looks brilliant, I disliked the last series of batmans (the first one was okay, the rest were shit)...this new one is awesome and Ledgers Joker is going to kick Jack Nicholson's right in the ass.

    This is why I hate living on an isolated Alaskan island. Sure, we can get Alvin and the Chipmunks in, but anything rated PG or above is a a "maybe" to a "no."

    We get one movie a week on the island on average, rarely if ever do we get first runs. This means that the world will have seen batman probably a month before I will.

    I was cleaning the bathroom sink this morning with bleach and like an idiot I didn't wear gloves. Now my hands stink of fucking bleach, I've cleaned them about 20 times in scalding hot water and scrubbed a couple of layers of skin off. Yet they still stink!

    Any ideas? I would amputate, but I'm not sure how to lop off the right hand when I've already cut the left one off.

    You could make your feet smell worse to cover up the smell of your hands but I hear the upper lip is a better target for that kind of thing.

    Seriously though, maybe some oils. You could google it :P

    To remove a bleach smell from your hands, or a hard surface such as a countertop, rub a little vinegar or lemon juice over the surface. Of course, then it will smell like vinegar or lemon juice, but you can use a wet rag to get rid of that smell, and then both the bleach smell and the vinegar or lemon juice smell will be gone. You can also use vinegar or lemon juice to remove bleach smells from your hands.

    To remove bleach smells from fabrics, use a little lemon juice, air them out in fresh air, or use a little vinegar (on whites only of course). Soaking fabrics in some lemon juice after a stain, can lift the stain, and avoid the use of bleach to begin with.

    hot water won't work. just time. unless of course you soaked your hands in something else just as stinky for a while .... but that may just make it worse.

    or that lemon thing

    Oh ... on a side note.

    Bleach and vinegar are on opposite ends of the pH scale. Here, I neutralize the bleach odor with white vinegar. Since the Editor noted toxic gas resulting from mixing bleach and vinegar, I'd recommend opening all the windows and doors. Place a fan, facing outward, at a window to draw out the fumes.

    Kudos! Now I just need to get some lemon juice and vinegar.....10 bucks says I can only get lemon juice and vinegar in litre bottles (don't ask me to Imperial that, freakin americans with your quarts and gallons, doesn't make any damn sense!)

    No they don't or didn't tingle.....musn't of been very powerful bleach, because I usually do get that burning sensation when my skin comes into contact with it............I was going to say something else that was really witty, but i've forgotten what it was. So instead just laugh and tell me how funny I am.

    I know here on my side of canada you can get those small "real lemon" bottles or squeeze bottles that look like lemons. And vinegar usually comes in small containers like the size of a small ketchup bottle.

    Its a portable automated turret that fire paintballs. When they turn it on it quotes the turrets from portal, but it has some real firepower. I want one, and will start trying to program my own before long. The video must be watch for highest degree of yes.

    I thought about buying that game too. It got a great review, but then I saw the trailer for FF IV and Chrono Trigger for the DS and I told myself to save the money for those. Huge fan boy!

    I don't know if you guys remember a few years back, I was planning to do a comic, and some guy offered me some hosting and help setting up a website and stuff and then freaked out when I started to have second thoughts and deleted all my art immediately?

    the operation is called rampage comics, I remember it from this terrible logo he doesn't seem to have a homepage anymore just this forum. I'm entirely sure I'm at least partly to blame for my general whishy-washy behavior, but he really didn't handle it well. All I remember is that he tried to tell me that pulling out was giving up a life time opportunity to be next to some amazing artists, and I remember telling him something like "Eh, they arent all that great. Im not sure about lifetime."

    I kinda take it back, I was a little bit of a prick lol. Allan wasn't there at the time, to be fair.
