Complaining is easy. Got any fixes? What is interesting to you?

Me, I'm wondering...

What the new MacIntel boxes will look like and how well they'll run?

What Lance Armstrong is going to do as the ONLY undefeated Tour de France champion?

Why Rockstar Games left stuff in GTA San Andreas that could be easily unlocked, and who's going to get fired for it?

What are you haveing for dinner tonight?

When am I going to be able to afford my next Mac, and should I wait after that?

Ok. Your turn!

The Lounge sucks just as much now as it did when I first joined 4 years ago. It depends on what kind of mood you're in how it strikes you I guess.

Don't worry—Federer's still the favorite to win the U.S. Open.

I think things would change for the better if we renamed the Lounge "Live Nude Girls".

Not true.

Sometimes, work suxx. Still do it. (Gotta).
Going to the bathroom suxx. Still do it regularly.
Needing more sleep than time available suxx. Still gotta get the sleep, one way or the other.

I think he has been defeated, but I'm too lazy to look it up. He has seven straight wins tho.

I think he would give his wife a good jibber-jabber and have some tricycles.

Whoa!

Now I'm playing some Rick James as I have a coffee and prep some tax returns, for some reason the gubmint can cash a cheque I send but then claim that I didn't send a year-end return. Very weird. Ah well. Last quarter's going to be easy: income: $0. GST paid: $0.

Ok. Your turn!
1. Take apple tower, swap CPU, done.
2. Enjoy life I assume
3. Because its faster to make something un-accessable in game then to rip it out and patch the game up.
4. Chicken fettucini & Artichoke.
5. Four months, no.
The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it always to be kept alive.

I'm still glad it was around for a while, but I think they should now be merged. The Pol forum would be the lounge, and it'd be less of a flamefest and more light hearted. The lounge would handle political/religous topics also, and be less 'stupid' about it and spark more debate.

Hopefully.

This place has always been like an shortwave radiostation that fades in and out and has a lot of static noise.

Or even better: move all PWL posts to the Feedback Lounge

What would this place do without Ca$h around to inspire....

Give yourself some credit Ca$h, without you, MacNN wouldn't even exi$t.



I vote they just call your ISP up on the phone and make you use a static IP address so (MacNN) could ban you for good. Teh "Lounge" is the banned area for those not worthy of keeping it to a minimum in the PL.... I like the fact that the two are seperate.
