THAT IS FANTASTIC, however I think my desire to eat them is greater than anythign else.

Actually that would just make sure you couldn't sleep. Bad idea.

With some cardboard boxes and non-toxic paint, I think we could definately make human tetris. Or has it been done...

That's probably because there isn't a nation on earth that is capable of understanding nor emulating how truly fucking bizarre modern Japanese pop-culture can be. The only thing that comes close is Spike TV (the only channel worth watching ever) and 4chan.

Whoa, 4chan is basically a microcosm of the idiocy of any major Western industrialized nation, not just Japan.

If it was emulating Japan, it would sell used schoolgirls' panties.

Mr.Rogers is grade A scary. In no way should he be in the same group as Tetris. If I made a graph, Mr.Rogers would be all the way at (-10000000000,-100000000000000). Tetris would be off the charts awesome. Though I have not played, geometric shapes are pure win.

spike tv was the station me and tommy watched while he was here that featured a show claiming you could cure your girlfriend's mood swings (or, as they so politely put it, her "bitchiness") by having unprotected sex with her. this same show also claimed having sex with a dugong would be most like having sex with a real human lady.

Tania, the problem is that you're taking Spike TV too seriously. Taking it seriously at all is taking it too seriously.
Title: Re: Tetris Cookies!

I always thought Spike TV was MXC and CSI. Every time I turn it on, that's what's playing, so because of that it is one of my favorite channels. (I don't have cable, but when we go on vacation and get it, this is what I watch during down time.)

They have lots of really shitty action movies (my favourites are the low-budget Jackie Chan ones) and this alone is why Spike TV is the best damn channel ever created.
Title: Re: Tetris Cookies!
Post by: Lines on 11 Mar 2008, 16:18
I honestly don't care what else is on that channel. I just like the fact that any time I turn it on it's either MXC or CSI. It's like magic!

Even if you happen to like Spike TV for two shows, would you agree with him that it is the best channel, and moreover the only one worth watching?

i dunno... history channel is pretty awesome.

and the national geographic channel before it went crappy (remember when it still had the gold framed pictures scrolling across the screen, and then it opened one, and told that story).
Title: Re: Tetris Cookies!
Post by: jill the ripper on 11 Mar 2008, 17:54
We used to watch videos of those in school. But I never realized those were National Geographic shows.

It... makes far too much sense. I now feet rather stupid.


I watch a lot of History Channel. I've seen that one documentary on torture about three times. ;/ My bestie finally banned me from watching it again. Said something about stopping me from becoming a terrorist.


I associate Spike TV with Nogin, and I'm not sure why.  Train of thought goes Spike TV>Nogin>Degrassi

Degrassi Next Generation.
With the children of the characters.
And cameos.

Degrassi is a bit addicting. Just because it's dramatic. SUPER DRAMATIC. ;d
Like a soap opera for pre-teens.

Could it be that there's a character on Degrassi TNG named Spike?  Emma's stepdad or something?
Title: Re: Tetris Cookies!

Close, but nope, his nickname is Snake.

I am just a little ashamed that I know this. Just a little.

Though, these seem all to be very true, I've found the answer when I was watching TV tonight.

Spike TV and Nogin are next to each other, at least on my TV.
;/

But the character probably reinforced the idea.
And I'm glad I'm not the only one who ever watched Degrassi.
Title: Re: Tetris Cookies!
Post by: muteKi on 11 Mar 2008, 21:35
I watched it a couple of times. I will never do so again if I can help it.




Also, G4 has Ninja Warrior now, which is basically MXC without the Samurai-Pizza-Cats-style translation, might be worth checking out (little else is -- they try to be Spike and fail at it).

No, seriously, I have actually watched G4 more, and G4 mostly sucks.


Of course, both do have good moments but I will still log more time watching Discovery in a week than both in a month combined assuming I'm not mostly just goofing off at my computer.

Post by: RedLion on 12 Mar 2008, 16:10
Oh yes. You haven't lived until you've been BAM ed in HD.

Regarding Degrassi: The great/terrible/hilarious thing about it is that every possible life tragedy has happened to one of the kids in this small group of friends by the time they're all 18. Crippled by a gunshot? Check. Anorexia? Check. Getting Pregnant? Check. Parents divorced? Check. Sexual Insecurity? Testicular Cancer? Check.

Sounds like Eastenders. I thought American soaps were all about people living unattainable high-flying lives, while British soaps were about the crushing misery of life. (Apart from Hollyoaks, which is about totty.)

Mind you, I don't watch any of them, so I may be mistaken.

Ditto. Because he's effing annoying.

MythBusters is on Discovery, therefore making it one of the best channels ever. If it decided to show reruns of Bill Nye, then it would be #1.
