Fukutaichou Beanie Omg. Wtf. I start reading Ultimate/Essential Spiderman, and it's like some time jump because now it's like SPiderman is the love child of the original Spiderman and Ironman. gonk Although, that's undeniably cool. Er, the new suit, I mean. But sure, if you want to go SpideyxIronman, be my guest. I feel liek teh noob. I AM. So. What's this Civil War thing? I looked at the Spiderman issue today... Something about all superheroes revealing their identity? Hm. AND I SAW CARS. OMGYAY. MOMMY I WANT A LIGHTNING MCQUEEN TOY PLX. YAAAAY <33333333 I'm getting the feeling I ought to just keep my little explanation bookmarked. XD In a nutshell: Marvel Universe, between Avengers Disassembled, House of M, and Decimation, has gone to hell and back. With all the chaos going on, the US government begins contemplating a law to force all superheroes and villains to register with the government and take a position with SHIELD. Naturally, this doesn't go over too well. A group of leaders of the hero community (Reed Richards, Tony Stark, Namor, Dr. Strange, and Black Bolt) get hold of this and fragment pretty badly, despite having been working together for years (aparantly) to share information. Stark and Richards support the bill, while the others are against it. Then, the s**t really hits the fan. A group of New Warriors decides, on their Reality TV show, to go after four members of the FBI's 10 most wanted list. Now, the New Warriors have always kind of been a B-team, but they take three down with little trouble. The fourth, Nitro, gets hit into a school bus. Nitro's ability is to blow himself up then put himself back together. So he does this, blowing the whole area to hell. In a populated area. Right outside an elementary school. All four of the New Warriors there are dead, as are 600 others. This sparks massive anti-superpowered sentiment. Human Torch gets beaten into a coma by angry citizens and the Government pushes ahead on the bill with great speed. The remaining heroes begin to debate what they ought to do. They're all hanging out in a room discussing it with Captain America standing outside guarding it. Then Maria Hill, new leader of SHIELD, walks up with a squad of guards. They talk for a bit. Maria: "So, who's against the bill?" Cap: "A few big names, mostly those who work close to the streets, like Luke Cage and Daredevil." Maria: "So, no one you can't take, then?" Cap: "...Excuse me?" Cap refuses to fight heroes who go against the bill, and is thus branded a criminal by Maria. The troops surround him, take aim, and get their asses handed to them by Cap, who escapes. That's right, Captain America is now an enemy of the state. The other heroes are now gearing up for a war within the superhero community. And the supervillains are going to get involved at some point in the near future as well.

Kinetic Dream Robert Drake Chrysant Robert Drake Chrysant By the mention of Ice Man, you've made me want to read it. Now if Gambit were also involved, I'd want to read it even more. Damn you. Do. You see the Civil War banner I have in my sig? That's from one of the covers for the X-Men tie ins. According to Raven, the line-up for the X-Men tie in is Rogue, Iceman, Mystique, Sabretooth, Cable, and Cannonball. That's going to be awesome! 4laugh Dunno if Gambit will be in it, as he's a bit...incapacitated at the moment from his run in with Apocalypse. Mmm. Wanna buy the comics for me and post them to me? surprised heart Yeah, so I've read. sweatdrop His new costume isn't as cool as his old ones. And by "new", I mean his Death costume. I think it's the black face/white hair look. No way as good as his old costumes.On the topic of Gambit; does anyone know what episode(s) of X-Men Evolution he shows up in? Well, at very least I'll be buying them. Maybe I'll scan in single pages or amusing panels to share. XD Yeah, that's his new look. I kinda liked it, but aside from skin and hair, I think it was still mostly the same as his older ones. I didn't mind it. Civil War thread? surprised xd Gladly. Gives a place to talk about them without spamming the General chat and also not having to worry so much about spoilers for the people not up to current.

Zero Omega Streamjumper Zero Omega Streamjumper Ok... I'm really getting annoyed with Youtube's links... I've tried copying their link to my multimedia before, and it didn't work. I tried the edit that I think Pi (or whoever) did to the Haruhi one to get it to work in my sig... to no avail. Why doesn't http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ItfXIRxuCY get http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ItfXIRxuCY to show as my multimedia? All I get is an indefinite loading screen... Dammit. http://vid.tektek.org/11/4255 Tektek.org has a url converter, it doesn't have autoplay. You could also try this. http://www.youtube.com/v/HMWut7bacDc&loop=0 Just replace the, HMWut..., with the code on the end of your video. The loop=0 takes autoplay off, so if you want it to play automatically, just delete that. Done and done... thanks, man! Now if you haven't taken a look at it, do so. No problem! I checked it out on my Multimedia to make sure it worked, the opening looks awesome. Giant mechas are in School Rumble? eek Not really... that's Dojibiron, a show that one of the characters (Imadori, the blonde guy) and some of the characters' younger siblings like. It doesn't show up much, but often figures into Imadori's antics...

So, I had some friends visiting from California this past week. One night, over a very late dinner, we sat around telling stories about different productions we've been a part of (school plays and the like). And my friend had this fabulous story from when he was in college. Stream howled with laughter when I told him. Luna's friend So during my school's production of Jesus Christ, Superstar, they had this giant cross on a mechanical lift that would raise the cross and the guy playing Jesus up for the crucifixion scene. Once the lift was standing straight up, it was supposed to stop. Well, one night the pin that stops the cross from going too far fell out, so the cross went up, up, up...and didn't stop. As the actor strapped to the cross slowly was lifted out over the orchestra pit, he could clearly be heard shouting "JESUS CHRIST!!!!" over and over again. Luckily, the top of the cross reached the end of the orchestra pit, so the poor actor just hung there for a while over the musicians while he waited for someone to help him.

First it was one in his room, then about twenty seconds later it was one downstairs, then from somewhere else... I feel like I'm in a clock shop at the top of the hour...

Except that I like The Offspring too much to hate them. In other news... GO STREAM GO! Strike forth for justice like never before! I'll probably be joining you sometime next month for the two year anniversary of the guild.

2 year anniversary?
Am I invited? ninja ninja
On another note, my sister left for Vegas this morning, so my whole family's been a blubbery mess, except me of course. I know she's going to do fine and I"ll see her again soon.
*sigh* Still, it sucks not having her around. Oh well...
