    Dikiyoba.


    I thought of that. I think I may have heard that before, but I'm not sure.

    is that like an ice cream headache except much less tasty


    You could say that. I probably shouldn't try and come up with a spam joke about that.
  3. It's interesting how everyone so far has got the introverted thingy in their score. Anyways, I got ISTJ.

    You have slight preference of Introversion over Extraversion (22%)

    You have moderate preference of Sensing over Intuition (25%)

    You have distinctive preference of Thinking over Feeling (75%)

    You have moderate preference of Judging over Perceiving (33%)

    Huzzah! I mostly lurk, most of the time signed in without realising it. Most of the topics I see just don't interest me at all.

    Linear is clearly better.


    Yes, because when I think of Jeff's worst stories...Exile 2,... spring to mind first of all.


    Shun the non believer tongue

    I don't think I'd qualify, if at all tongue.
  7. One of my mates had an awkward moment with the bakery up the road from where I live. They ran out of curry pies. The awkward part? They were next door to and Indian store that sold all sorts of curry stuff, spices and what have you.

    I do believe that's depending on what country you live in. I was talking to one of my nephews that live in California the other about this, and he was shocked to find out that Most Australians don't have to pay insurance if they earn roughly under $50 000 a year, and if they do earn over that, insurance doesn't normally cost much over $10 a week.
  9. Never owning an Xbox (I can be a bit of a consoleist, only because everyone else is), I can't really comment. But Assasins Creed was amazing. I also agree with Sylae. There are some pretty cool PC games out there.

  10. I probably should of worded that better. I wasn't necessarily meaning how to use the Higgs boson directly. The more we find out about all these different little buggers and how they act, I reckon we'd be able to one day improve larger things like semi conductors and who knows what else.

  11. That's quite interesting. I remember hearing something about that Higgs boson a few months back, but I can't remember any of the details.

    Well hopefully it won't mean the end. I mean, once you've found it, doesn't mean you can't find out what you can do with it.
