I still have the fry-bot. BigMac too. The fry-bot is hideous, but you will respect the BigMac. Hoenstly, I miss the old days. McD's used to make fun, original toys. Now they make a small POS for whoever pays them the most money.

Ah, why not. I'll edit mine too.

Hey, I LIKED US Godzilla!

Depends on the dog. my german sheapard is so spoiled she wouldn't care about any intruders. Only thing she will protect is deer meat like when a deer bodie beaches up on the shore. Okay, as a general rule the breed has strong defensive urges. These can be over-ridden by raising them the right/wrong way.

Ah, the ever popular "self-defense is wrong and evil and criminals are ENTITLED to your stuff" mentality. Suffice it to say that the rules are quite a bit more lenient in the US. And even moreso in certain states, such as my own Texas(where, on the extreme end, you can legally shoot someone for stealing your salt shaker). Aww, man. That sucks. German shepards have great personalities, too. And an inbred desire to guard your family and property. Smart, too. As dogs go, anyways. There's a reason they're the classical guard dog. Or police dog. Smart enough to take orders, energetic enough to do the job, calm enough to wait for the word go. Not that I'm aware of. Maybe some sort of chihuahua. But who wants that? ... Quick google search turns this up... http://dogs.about.com/od/dogbreeds/a/hypoallergenic.htm 'S got a list of low-reaction dogs.

No.

Hikaru and Roy knew each other before the war. Hikaru would've stayed a stunt flyer.

Odd. I thought the NX-01 was a very nice-looking ship. Integrating the saucer section like they did gives it a really nice profile. I've never liked the "neck" on the other ship designs, and the Defiant was just too squat for my tastes. The NX-01 is a very nice balance between utilitarian practicality and aesthetics. And the battles were a heck of a lot more interesting than most of the crap in Voyager, in my opinion. Really, what does it matter when it takes place? Be it a classic like "City on the Edge of Forever", or a more modern holodeck romp, some of Star Trek's best stories have taken place in the past. And a phaser beam is the same regardless of when you are. ... And your post borders on illegible. Learn to capitalize and punctuate properly.

Even a small dog is good. By small I mean foot and a half tall. Not teacup poodle. But yah. Dogs are the best security system known to man. If you keep them indoors. Used to have a german shepard/chow. Looked like a wolf. Sweetest thing ever, but she scared the crap out of everyone that didn't know her. Currently have a black lab(mostly) and a terrier(mainly). Between the 2, I've got iron-clad security. The lab is big enough to spook people, and the terrier is mean enough to take a chunk out of their butt while they're watching the lab(but still well-behaved enough to not physically assault people we let in).

I thought the TV instances you mentioned were interesting because they were just simple chance. At least at first, Hikaru COULD have had a relationship. But simple misunderstandings and bad timing drove a wedge between them untill the gap was just too wide to cross.

Me. I thought Perceptor was cool. I R GEEK! But many people liked Soundwave and Blaster. Heck, Soundwave is one of the more popular 'bots. Maybe. If it worked, definitely.

Actually, they don't a lot of times. There's no one Famiclone manufacturer, and every chinese pirate company has their own ROM in the package. ... Personally, I'd get a cart-based Famiclone. With a FC-NES adapter, it becomes a quite servicable and relatively unique NES deck*. And it opens up the possibility(with a quick soldering job to make an adapter) of using any NES accessory instead of just what hte famiclone comes with. *Not one of the lame PS1/N64 case knockoffs. But there's so many diffrent styles out there that it's hard to not find one you like.

Bah. What's the world coming to when even fake weapons aren't usable in self-defense? Actually, the first time my place was robbed(happened twice in the entire time we've been here) they used gloves. And this was before the cop shows. You ust got hit by a higher grade of thief than most poeple. Consider it an honor. A. Good to know the cops appreciate the value of a giant robot. B. To heck with the guys across the street. It's the guy in forensics you need to worry about.

You mean they actually pulled off hat many eps.? Man, I'm so out of the loop...didn't they try to bring the Borg into the series briefly? It was never an attempt to make them a regular villain. The episode was intentionally written to prevent a second contact untill Next Generation. It was just a little sidestory based off the time travel element in First Contact. A "what if the borg had a shuttlecraft out" thing.

More importantly, Gamlin gets Millia's VF-1 blown up. Best Valk ever, up in smoke.

ASS is, well, ass. Anime-in-Action dropped the project. Get Central Anime.

But do you really WANT Macross whored out like Gundam?

I have to disagree, actually. A lot of the early transformers really sucked. The miniature ones like Bumblebee especially. But even the larger ones sometimes... Have you ever LOOKED at Hound? On the other hand, Soundwave, Shockwave, Blaster... there's a lot of good ones too. Though I do find it odd that Graham exempted Masterpiece Prime, but not Jetfire.

So put it in a game machine. Besides which, there's very few games that are well-suited to the technology. At least, on a portable device. Their example of swinging the phone like a glof club comes in very handy for elaboration. You can't SEE while you're swinging.

Max. Because we both wear glasses. I'm so deep...

got pics of the face? You're missing the point. It's just Agent ONE's usual Mac7 bashing.

I thought it was established in-game that THIS was the original and real memory for Cloud? His past unlocked before him when he met Jenova, and Sephiorth mocked him that he thinks he was in SOLDIER all this while when he was actually just a motion-sick grunt following Zack around. Cloud denies it and sulks and attacks Sephiroth...but loses. No, it wasn't established. That's one of many backstories thrown out there, all with an equal amount of support(read: none).

You're not one of the very vocal haters I was speaking of. Not from what I've seen, anyways. I'm just saying that the impression that everyone hates Mac7 is because a very small number of posters(say, five?) insist on professing their undying hatred every time the show's mentioned, even tangentally. And the episode where they're filming the Minmei movie is #11. I don't recall seeing that specific shot in it, but I may well be mistaken.

Hmmm... I wonder why no one ever cosplays as Ishtar. I've seen plenty of Felicia cosplays, and she's every bit as risque.
