    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    It's unbelievable- they're defending the posters: http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/archives/2004/03/25/2003107634 "In addition, bin Laden masterminded the attack on the World Trade Center ... Chen also likes to play games, pulling off tricks just like the Sept. 11 terrorist attack"...

    Jobs, what do you do and how did you get them.

    In a few weeks I'm going to start work as an analyst at a hedge fund (fund of funds). Before, I interned in similar jobs, and was referred to this one.

    All I can see is that scene from Hot Shots!

    Oops! She did it again...

    Hmm, I was going to use her as an example too before deciding against posting in this thread- now that it's degenerated into its current state, I figured what the hell. Is it the talent/ personality alone that makes people either find her plain unattractive or a goddess? I didn't think she was...

    What would you rather see...

    If the story and setting actually had anything to do with the FO universe, instead of being tasteless and juvenile, I think FO fans might have been more receptive to it, despite it being mediocre and repetitive gameplay wise. If you left the setting the same, but the gameplay was actually fun...

    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    From what I seen, I think the business types are more in favor of pan-Blue, as they promised to become closer to China, establish direct links, and therefore profit from China's growth. Although Chen is a supporter of Taiwan independance, he is smart enough not to risk war with China. The...

    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    About the referendum ballots, basically everyone who actually voted in the referendum said yes to both questions, in support of Chen. However the pan-Blue opposition was telling their supporters that the referendum was illegal, and urged everyone not to vote. That, coupled with the fact that...

    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    Yeah, I didn't get the pleasure of seeing the Hitler ad before the KMT was forced to pull it- it doesn't seem like they learned their lesson. Lien has absolutely no shame. It's still in court, and there still protesters outside the Presidential Palace. I don't think they have any chance of...

    Which Survivor of the Impending Nuclear Apocalypse Are You?

    I'm another kid you hated at school.

    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    To give you an example of the dirtiness (and hilarity) of Taiwan politics and especially the KMT here are posters which were on the walls of official KMT headquarters, slandering President Chen Shui Bian (or "A-bian"). What Bin Laden is saying in the picture is: "I am terrorist leader bin...

    Hamas leader pwned

    Ok, I have heard of the Deir Yassin massacre, and was thrown off by the 1929 date, which does make a big difference. This incident in no way was part of "foundation of Israel," as you implied. It was a wartime action by two groups that who were considered rogue by the state even before the...

    Fallout 2 doesn't win extra life

    I'd have to go with Starcraft too, but the D2 bastards' cheating skills will probably prevail.

    Hamas leader pwned

    What makes you so confident that this happened? There are huge amounts of revisionism and propaganda on both sides. Ok, I withdraw my criticism of this line (original post) as I found that this was true. Though, I would like to hear why you think what was outlined in Resolution 181 was...

    Hamas leader pwned

    Killing is killing. If Yassin was some musclebound commando defeated in hand to hand combat, it wouldn't have made it more wrong or right. And yes, half-blind men in wheelchairs can be dangerous when they are surrounded by bodyguards and command an army of militants. No, the foundation of...

    Whats your belief? (short 20 Qs. quiz)

    Hmm, might have been better if they separated the not sure and don't care people into their own choices. 1. Secular Humanism (100%) 2. Unitarian Universalism (89%) 3. Non-theist (87%) 4. Theravada Buddhism (80%) 5. Liberal Quakers (66%) 6. Neo-Pagan (62%) 7. Mainline -...

    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    The KMT candidate's after- election speech was shameful. He started hinting that the assassination was staged and then that the results were 'unfair'. Now they're demanding a recount. :wtf:

    An extra life for Fallout 2? Place your votes.

    IMO, Counterstrike isn't even close to being the best game of it's genre... The vote count is still pretty low, so theres still a possibility to catch up FO2 vs BG style.

    France allys with China against Taiwan.

    Damn straight, and don't you forget it! Here's a pic of the shooting. The one good thing to take out of it is that both parties rightly agreed to suspend campaigning until after the election (when before, they were at each other's throats and it was getting dirtier by the day).
