  1. Heh, yeah Scott Card is great, in 2008 we get a Ender's Game movie, and i have high hopes for it, because he turned down Movie Studios for years because they wanted to change Ender into an adult, or something redicouly, and he thought Kid actors could pull off this type of roll, I think he said it was a Petter Pan movie that got him to see how great child actors can be, so 2008, something to look forward to =P

  3. Yeah, Ender's Shadow is bean's perspective,

    But i just checked Amazon and Speaker for the Dead is Book 2,

    Xenocide is book 3, Children of the Mind book 4, Ender's Shadow is 5, and theres 6, 7 and 8 but to lazy to look em up.

  4. I wear my pirate badge proudly, and those who have a problem with it can walk the plank (If there smaller and weaker then me of course.)

    So your proud your a theif? Your proud you take programs (and other media) that people work long and hard on, that they put a price tag for their labor on, and use it with out paying for them for their time? How the hell can you justify this? Even better, how is it you feel you need to brag about it?

    Do you have a job/career? Would you brag so much if you labored hours on end, on say... building a vehicle. However, only 7 out of 10 people paid you for this vehicle. Would you still be bragging that you are a con artist?

    Good grief, I feel like I'm back out G4 with your kind of mentality ranning rampid. Anyway, this is all i have to say in this thread.

    HAHA, funny stuff, i started off joking and you get all tense and angry, go take your meds.

    But anyways yeah, the few things i DO pirate i need for one reason or another and can't aford while working while in school, so yes, I dont let silly things like money stand in my way of learning (Meaning iv been known to download books) so im proud of risking the law-man for education...yes.

    Granted WinRAR isn't educational, but its a key of-sorts to education (Damn compression)

  5. Well, that's one stupid (and typical) way to look at it... You can find ways to justify it all you want, but it's still stealing.

    thanks

    ohhh you havn't even been to the best part then yet? your in for a very nice surprise =P

  7. Just gotta go to the site, browse to where the file is saved, hit upload, and it'll give you links for the image, copy and paste the code it gives you for "Hotlink for forums".

  8. I park the cart probably 99% of the time. Yes, it's pure laziness when I/they don't park it.

    What's this "wal-mart" ya'll keep goin' on about? Is it some kind of store? (JK, studies have shown you don't save money in the long run by shopping there, but they sure are efficient at promoting the myth that their prices are low.)

    is that because you buy more when your there?

    0_o if you wanna know how evil Wal-Mart really is watch "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price"
