Pretty sure you were just sold snake oil, you know like those multivitamins that claim to increase your penis size...

Cool Ranch is for panzy momma's boys. Fiery Habanero is the Dorito for men.

I'm of the opposite reaction here, and I plan on sticking with Netflix despite this. Over a year ago I cut off my DirecTV service as I was paying $85 a month, this being 2 years after the $30 a month introductory cost. So now all I get is the free over the air stuff and Netflix and a $5 a month increase isn't going to change that. People need some perspective here because at least Netflix is announcing it rather than sneakily increasing your bill over the months like DirectTV and Time Warner.

I think they put the bomb in the kid posthumously in an attempt to bomb the people who would be recovering the body.

There's plenty of things to get fat on besides drinking beer (like over consumption of food). I actually lost weight (0.5 pounds lost per week) while still being able to enjoy several beers on the weekend by cutting back on the food I ate during the week and exercising.

No I don't currently have a Kindle, though I plan to get one once I finish reading several of the physical books I need to read. But my main point is that $25 off from $140 is chump change to me and doesn't justify going for the ad supported version even if its not that obtrusive. So a significantly lower price would be needed for me to consider that, otherwise I'd rather just go ahead and pay the $140 once I'm ready to get one.

yeah $25 off is clearly not enough, it needs to be no more than half the price to make it worth actually considering the ad supported version

4. Don't be evil and you won't have anything that could be used against you

but then if _everybody_ knew martial arts, including the attacker, the benefit to the victim is completely lost

*whoosh* that comparison went completely over your head. Marathon is to Doom as Goldeneye is to Halo, thats not the same as saying Marathon is to Halo as Wolfenstein is to Doom.

Not for typing or programming have I ever needed to use the Capslock key. Its just as useless as the recently deceased Scroll Lock key.

FMV scenes generally only playback at 23 to 25 FPS because they are pre-rendered. In SC2 they are being rendered by the GPU as they are not pre-rendered FMV and so generally need in excess of 30 FPS constantly to not look stuttery, which is about the same thing you'd get from playing something like Gears of War or Crysis or really any recent good looking 3D game.

funny, I decoded it and it came out "Ph4rma increase your p33nas size today for less $$$$"

I laughed too... I think it was the guy's minor speech impediment but otherwise the song and lyrics are kinda catchy really

Not sure what game you played, but Mechwarrior 2 was the first battletech game where you had as full customization as you did in the board game, right down to placing each "critical" slot for each weapon and ammo installed. Of course mechwarrior 2 for playstation 1 didn't have this ability if I remember correctly, so the PC version may have had the advantage of full customization.
