Oh man what should I respond to that! It seems like eh... you have all the right priorities in life. :L
Oh yeah, we got the Smart-Four and Two here, though it's not easy to avoid the potholes around here, the mid-atlantic states have some squishy ground, and don't like to spend money on making good asphalt :|
Yeah, we got Honda, Lexus, Toyota, Infinity, Nissan/Datsun, dunno if Isuzu is still alive... had yet another recall of Mazda cars, luckily not for being infested with spiders, but for spiders getting stuck in a gas vent line, possibly rupturing the gas tank!
Ronnie Reagan cut tariffs on Japanese bikes and cars in the early 80's... kinda killed things for the rest of the world's presence in the US market.... every president we've had, has made unfair concessions to other countries, just to line the pockets of their supporters, Nixon and Clinton were the worst, letting China run roughshod over our manufacturing base.
Ah, I thought they were one of those 'overly efficient and not made by Ford, Chevy or Chrysler' cars for sure. Sounds like it's not a very smart car to drive around with over there though...
Woah crazy thing about them spiders. Some Japanese cars have been pretty horrible in terms of safety though, at least older models, but that's a good selection! Datsun 240Z is another car I'd like to own.
Alas that greed; corruption. Letting in foreign models or actually letting the Chinese manufacture your own??
that joke may have flew over your head :P....think about it, if someone really had a girlfriend, would they be on the computer 100% of the time
lol, not usually no. Potential more serious meaning though: you and your (potential) girlfriend really don't get along. Wouldn't want to wisp that away as a joke. :O
so do you get the joke or not lol
Yeah I got it. :)
The anime already entered full in the Dressrosa arc, and yeah those were kinda spoilers, sorry about that.
-Real men have computer and girlfriend to be one and the same, that's the true romance of a modern man!
-What? it was a joke? damn... oh well time to go and fix my life....
Yupp, and things seem to be going well so far...
If you aint broke, why fix it. :P
Sanji just got himself played... how could you say that things are going well T_T and he looked so happy.
But i am kinda broke... damn now i not only need to get a job but a girlfriend too! goddammit.
Oh yeah, things are going well for everyone but Sanji! It was a... sad moment. :( Though we all knew that was an impossible romance, I really didn't see this coming, I thought she'd just try to kill him or something...
Sounds like you're in a fix!
I'm eeeeenvious
:c
Anyone can do it! 10EXP/day x 10 years = top level. :D
I've had a bit bad discipline with that.
Hide yo knees! Hide yo calves!
Knee deep in hell? Calves and Hobbes?
Up for another collab? http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/637167 Rice-Pirate and a shit ton of others have already done parodies of this TMNT commercial. If I could do a menu system, I'd put the thread in Animation myself! Oh-Sama did the last one, if not you, who-who, said the owl!
I better watch the commercial. :) Well yes, if a menu system is all that's required of me, I'd be glad to!
Oh well then prepare for another twist involved with her, indeed this whole arc is a bunch of twisters.
I will have to call system support XD.
Oh, alright, preperations complete!
It's better than life support. :P
Feels like I'm twisting your arm... just sick of all the steam YT takes out of our site :( Besides, the clips in question are pretty small, I figure it's better to hang together, than to hang separately (as Ben Franklin once said, when they all signed the declaration of independence).
Nah, I'd love to make the menu for it, could help with compiling entries and other stuff too. It's a fun idea: now seems like the right time! How soon a deadline were you thinking though? I'm working on a couple of things for Pico Day right now, and Cliff The Gap Leaper collab... but they should all be done within a week or two.
Ah shit, you're busy, maybe I should just hit up Oh-Sama... oh, I see you know him! Do you think he'd be able to track down all the authors of the TMNT commercial parodies? I can help by finding them all, and pointing to the production thread.... you know how pop culture in the internet age is: get it on stage quick, before it's not hot anymore.
Oh, that soon! :/ Yeah, if he has time I'm... well actually I have no idea if he'd be interested in working on someone else's collab idea, was about to say I'm sure he would. :P Better ask! He usually has a bunch of projects going on at the same time. You speak the truth, but these collab things usually take more time than expected, if not with the initial phase of making then some problem in the phase of putting everything together. The recent Happy Collab was planned as just a quick thing, to be done in a week, but it took over two months! Btw, were you thinking of collecting together just the existing submissions btw or all new ones?
No, just the ones that dealt with that specific scene, used in the movie commercial. I'm sure it's out of YT's rotation by now anyway, but it's always good to strike wile the iron is hot.
As a former editor, I would have loved to take already edited bits, and stick them together... I was good at that. Buy God, it did take forever using cassette tapes! Maybe I should jump in on 3D printing while it's still kinda new....
I mean were you thinking of collecting together existing submissions or actually accepting new ones? If latter, you sound pretty optimistic about deadline. :) Yeah, definately. Any Oh-Sama news?
I watched a documentary about Jackie Chan; it showed him cutting together video manually using reels and a really simple open interface projecting them into a screen, don't know if he's moved onto digital editing since then but it seemed like a useful way of editing video. No potential for program crashes or quirks, just cut and paste and it's done! Yeah why not! :D Been thinking of printing anything specific? If you could print counterfeit LEGO there might be a business opportunity there...

They won't stop submitting these things!
Haha, if it grows as big as Flappy Bird thjis could go on for a while... strange there was never a collab for that btw.
Is equally troublesome though.
This is the best one so far http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/637099
I take it you're not really hyped up about these masks. :P
Ugh na not worth it look at this Mr @VicariousE that thing is over 40!!
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEF6_06sQxj1jyi3gj3pGpVjtyNnsuJBZ
I wouldn't watch that playlist not even by recommendation.
Oh hey Brewsters in that list... gotta check that one at least.
You know what i was talking shit, i actually went and saw them all, and nobody has done a Goku and Piccolo reboot of that clip, is free for the taking.
All 51?! Aight, if there's a collab I'll gokuku.
Aww, shit, see guys, those buggers at YT beat us to the punch all the time! Still, it's a good list to start a collab from :\ I'm done talking about it... damn turtles, pimping toons from my youth >:(
I like Brewster's stuff...
We have that playlist feature too though, a collab's on a whole 'nother level! Yeah! Go for it! I think I saw one or two old TMNT movies, never the series though...
Ditto!
Jackie Chan's an old goat alright, but the ways of fil editing are still practiced to this day. But nah, modern editing suites don't just BSOD... can't charge by the hour if the system shits out. Although I did hear about one case in the late 90's on an Avid system... I went somewhere else.
Indeed, I heard Nolan holds on to some of those practices too.
I get crashes all the time though, but I guess avidemux doesn't really compare to the professional stuff! Or it could be I'm experimenting with too many unsupported codecs, tried recording with Fraps recently and it looked like it swapped the U/V levels. Avidemux has a filter to swap them back, but it kept crashing on export, so I tried Handbrake instead and it doesn't even show the U/V levels inverted. These programs are a maze.
Btw, on the topic of screen recording software, I've been trying a bunch of other ones since BSR (the one I previously used) apparently has some trouble with my new GPU, stumbled upon Open Broadcaster Software on the way, which looks like a pretty good program for streaming (wasn't any good for recording games though). Mirillis Action! seemed promising as well, as did ZD Soft Screen Recorder.

Sure there's Rolls, Saabs, Volvos, Bentleys, and Porches, Lambos, Ferraris. But anything overly efficient, and not made by Ford, Chevy or Chrysler, will not be sold in the US. Some of it's safety, we always had big cars and fat lawyers...
A small electric generator is all you really need, and since you don't need traditional mechanical gunk weighing things down... But for a full size car, yeah maybe you'd want a 1 or 2 liter 4 cyl engine to get the spark up.

Haha, our brands in the same list as those overly luxurious and expensive ones... nice. :D What about Smart (the brand) cars btw? And nothing Japanese?
Aha.
