Viral Speak 10-31-2002
The first update to Viral Speak from the new house AND it's a Halloween one!

Philip is listening to: "Divine Discontent" It's the new Sixpence None the Richer album in stores now. Sure, there's new Christina Aguilera and new Eminem, and new Nirvana; but forget about them for a moment. There's new Sixpence None The Richer and a new album from a group called Bond. Well, to be honest.. I'm impressed and happy. So, please take the time to tell me.. would you like Viral Speak when ever I can update it? Or at least twice a week?


Ecks vs. Sever is not a movie based on a video game.  The movie and game were made at the same time, however, the movie's release was delayed for a year, while the game's was not.
 
This has been another Useless Fact(tm). - Dr Pedantic
Philip: But, at least it's a great game!
How do they get helium? I was thinking about this yesterday at a wedding while inhaling large amounts of it. I mean, its in the atmosphere right? waaay up there because its light. But its a noble gas and all so it wont react with anything to be able to collect it. Oh, and I brought 4 helium balloons home. I tried to do what the guys in Balloon Fight do, but I just fell flat on my face and hurt my nose. - Nitro
Philip: Helium is collected by tiny elves that are bred in captivity for the sole purpose of collecting helium, which they promptly fart out into the cannisters we use to hold it in.
I am annoying! Fear me! Never make up jokes at midnight. You come up with crap like that. - The Jaded Falcon
Philip: Here, have some helium. It's fresh. Still moist.
What color is the GBA that is destroying Tokyo?  I have a Platinum one that is rocking the face off of Cuba...  heh heh -CX (Mad that the US version of Godzilla was left out of Destroy All Monsters Melee)
Philip: Well, it's the Purple One of course. It channels the power of Grimace and is... UNSTOPPABLE! Nothiing can kill it! That one Although, I heard the Gold One is currently stomping New York.
Greetings, Kevlar Gorilla from NGenres here. Who would win in a wizard's duel: Gandolf or Ganondorf? - Kevlar Gorilla
Philip: Ganondorf of course. I mean, Gandolf can't even keep dinosaurs out of the castle! Cookie if you get the reference.
Time for our math lesson: Timesplitters 2=addicting - Shady
Philip: So technically, Timesplitters 2 = Fun?
Enico is hit with techie talk. It is super effective. Enico has become confused. It hurts itself in the confusion. Enico has fainted. Use next Pokemon? - Enico
Philip chooses Foy. Go Foy! Avenge Enico!
Just flipping thru Nintendo's website, and I happened upon this:
 
"Players who own both Metroid Fusion and Metroid Prime will be able to access sweet special features by connecting the two systems using the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable. If you've completed Metroid Fusion, you can unlock the original NES version of Metroid in Metroid Prime. Just connect the two systems and you're ready to play. You can even save your game data directly to a Nintendo GameCube Memory Card. 
After completing Metroid Prime and connecting the two games, you'll be able to play through the game wearing Samus's Fusion Suit from Metroid Fusion." 
 
Sweet hardly begins to describe it. - Cheeba_puff
Philip: Well, add sexy and that's close.
BAH! I do not need university...I will become the webmaster of a lucrative website that reviews video games and anime movies, and serves the blue virii...wait a minute........... - Clarynet
Philip: Sounds GREAT! On second thought.. go to a university...
Well, let's see here.  I guess I stand corrected on the Yu-Gi-Oh thing-- the GBA version is actually PLAYABLE (ie it's possible to win because it makes sense).  So I'm picking that up today.  But something bugged me...  On the back of the box, on the ESRB ratings... rater... thingy... it said that the game had "Mild Violence".  It's a card game, there's no 'violence', animated, mild or otherwise-- cards shake and disappear.  That's it.  Where's this supposed "mild" violence, anyway?
 
And if this extremely benign game has "mild violence" but nothing about the whole pseudo-occult aspect, then that BMX XXX had d***ed well better have an Adults Only rating so I don't have to deal with it at the store.  It's bad enough that I have to ask little kids for ID for Conker, I don't want any more trouble than I have to handle... - CX (Who apparently is the only morally aware person working at his particular video game chain-- but then again, he plays Yu-Gi-Oh)
Philip: Oh, it's okay to say damned. Although, I was eyeing that Yu Gi Oh game, the mild violence comes from the thousands of tiny pixels that die when the cards shake.
I swiped my drivers license through an e-reader and now I'm trapped in my gameboy... please send help. - Orochi p_fish
Philip: Hmm.. he's trapped in there.. Hmm.. *takes out copy of Shantae* Should I have mercy? Hmmm.. Naw. *takes out copy of Chu Chu Rocket*
bow wow wow yip grr bark POOCHY AIN'T STUPID! - blargg
Philip: OH MY GOD! NOT THAT LEVEL! NOOOOOOOO!
I play Bubble Bobble on my TI-83 at school. It's fun. - The Heptagon
Philip: I agree. Bubble Bobble is fun.
See the monkey touch the monkey feel the monkey punch the monkey kick the monkey bite the monkey whack the monkey smoke the monkey time the monkey test the monkey chew the monkey scare the monkey beat the monkey eat the monkey smite the monkey bow to the monkey obey the monkey worship the monkey 
 
Ooooohhhh yeah, it'z da kickahhhh....
 
-Kobalt
Philip: You people are weird. Just like family.
I made a blue virus pattern in Animal Crossing. I'm going to put it up on a sign and declare that acre a biohazard zone! Or something. I also made a Cukeman pattern, with flames in the background. I call it 'Cukeman Rage'. - TK421
Philip: I like that. Cukeman RAGE!
Okay. So I had this dream the other night. I was walking down this road made of glass marbles with three or four other people. One of them was wearing a top hat and the others were dressed as bards or something from the dark ages. Anyway, were walking down this road when all of the sudden this door slides up from underneath the ground. It's covered in human faces, and one or two of them keep winking at me. I kind of turn my head and squint my eyes as I open the door, only to find a empty square room covered in blinking panels like something out of Battle Star Galactica. I walk into the room and the others follow. Suddenly, The one with the top hat holds up his right arm and all these metallic cables shoot into a wall. He tilts his head back and his teeth start glowing as if he's downloading information. The bards then melt all over the floor. I'm getting pretty freaked out by this point, but for some odd reason, I'm all calm. As if pulled by some unknown force I walk up to the top hat man and point my ring finger at his chest. Then, as if thrown by an unknown force, we flies into the wall and the blinking panels swallow him. Just as his face is enveloped in the lights, he says one thing: "COLOR FOR STUDENT COMPUTE". There is a bright flash of blue and I wake up. - Abe
Philip: That sounds like a really kick ass movie in the making.

Aftercourse: 
In This Beautiful Mess, I find that I am like the Fatherless and The Widow in my Divine Discontent. But I am Sixpence None The Richer to buying Tickets To A Prayer Wheel of this nature..
GRATUITOUS USAGE OF SHANTAE!!!!
