Repugilsts? in Republican JoeUser Forums

Now, I'll admit that as a party, Republicans are a mite too quick to fight. In fact, if you look back, McCain's kinda been attacking Obama first (or at least his ads have been on my TV first). However, when you look at it, would you rather have a pacifist, or a Repugilist? I mean, the Republicans may fight too much, but do the Democrats fight enough? Do they actually push for what they want (outside of the bedroom?), or do they just stamp "yea", "nay", or "present", and go back to sleep. Repu

Ha. Excuse me, Damnocrats (admit it, look at the language they use, it's mild), don't you realize that you are in the "Democrat Underground" because you've put your heads in the sand?

Making a Good Pseudonym/Username in Misc JoeUser Forums

Welcome to my guide on making a good pseudonym. I will list things to do/not do Numbers are BAD! BAD! BAD! Numbers will turn away the more serious people at a fair rate (admit it, who would befriend, much less pay attention to, John1825712085?) Using a product in your name is also bad. Do not name youself "WoWGoldVendor". This is more of a username than a pseudonym thing, I guess, but it's bad. Use a random name generator. This is good. It gives

Reply to Why do liberals think they are so smart? in Republican Stardock Forums

Amen. So many of these liberals believe that you have to vote for the black guy, because he's black. Why? Why would I vote for the white guy because he's white? There's no difference, and the implication that there would be one is a step backwards . Ergo, I will not vote for Obama, because he's a non-religious religious-poser, ex-Marxist, ex-cocaine addict, and an ex-alcoholic, not to mention his politics. Even if I were racist, I wouldn't vot

Reply to Does speaking matter? in Republican Stardock Forums

@ Ock: Yeah, but that stuff is notoriously hard to remember. Especially for those of us with short attention spans. Also, I forgot to mention that I have a speech impediment (ok, so more of just a weird accent that comes from thin air, and a tendency to stutter a little at times), and I find it very unnecessary to make a convincing speech by merit of speech, but instead lean towards merit of points or information.

[quote]Speaking is usually the first thing someone has to make a good impression. Speech indicates a certain level of intelligence. Even if you have good ideas, if you can't convey them clearly and persuasively...then your leadership skills will suffer.[/quote] Yeah, but there can be an exception in McCain's case, surely. He spent years in a POW camp, so he's expected to compare unfavorably socially to Obama in that respect. However, I find that McCain can communicate, he's just less

Does speaking matter? in Republican JoeUser Forums

[quote]McCain's speech has proven a couple of things. Number one, he is not a great speaker. Number two, his prescription to solve America's ills are to do more of the same. McCain, who votes with Bush 90 percent of the time, thinks the solution to our problems is to give the rich more money, keep spending the country's blood and treasure in Iraq, and hope everything turns out okay. That's the definition of insane. McCain calls for lower taxes. Taxes were higher

Reply to The Surge is not working in Current Events Stardock Forums

Sorry, but the Surge is working. I know a soldier in Afghanistan (he gets home tomorrow) who was on deployment in Iraq. So, basically, he says that the Surge is working. Wanna know why? He was greeted as a hero, by the natives of the land. Wanna know why? Because we're the ones who pulled the countries of Iraq and Afghanistan (Afghanistan being mostly successful, and Iraq soon to follow) out of the crapper.

Poetic Spam is Still Spam in Misc JoeUser Forums

Ok, attention spammers, poetic spam is still spam. If you put WoWGold in every other sentence, it is even more spam. People will not buy MMORPG crap if they're smart, and if they're not, they don't use our wiki, and we don't give about your poetry.

Fall 2008 Writing Plans in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I have a number of projects going for this Fall. Two are short stories, another, well, I'll just hint at it and say "daily". That's your clue. The short stories are both planned to be my Shadowrun fare, so don't expect too much. One of the Shadowrun stories is going to be called "Screams of the Undead" (yes, I'm stealing song titles, imitation=flattery). This is also a hint at the plot of this story, since you can guess it will have at least one of the mentioned items

BB4Win Review in OS Customization JoeUser Forums

Join me today, when I review BlackBox For Windows (BB4Win), the graphical management software. It's compatible with Stardock stuff (warning, the only problem you should have will be that if the Start menu icon is oversized, it'll look nasty), and can be set up really easy. In fact, it gives you an .exe file (quit by going under "Windows|Bro@ms -> Quit". It's not Windows like, but it's fun, and innovative. View the screenshots, for heck's sake. Better yet, try
