Have A Question? V2

It's against the rules to create multiple accounts in order to post when you are already temp banned. Luckily for us, TGJ was too stupid and lazy to use common sense and could only think of posting more sh*t.

 

But I think it's against the rules to create multiple accounts, not only when you're temp banned.

 

According to my secret sources, you can make a temporarily second account only if you forget your username/password.

Before. They were made in April 2001 (GTA III was released in October) but relaunched in November the same year after a system crash.

What are y'all doing for Earth Hour?

That event where people turn the lights off for an hour thinking they're saving energy, but not realizing that at the end of the hour the power stations get a surge of having to generate electricity to cope with everyone turning lights back on, putting the kettle on for a brew, turning the heating back on with boost settings which ends up using more electricity than they would have if they just left everything on as normal for the hour...

 

... oh nothing much, just keeping the lights on because f*ck Polar Bears.

Thought they were two different events, to be honest. And this from someone studying the awareness of climate change lately.

 

Oh well, thanks for the link. At least I got to enter a competition to win a weekend away on the Great Barrier Reef.

What about Charybdis? The whirlpool monster from the Odyssey. Is there a myth as to why she was chained to the bottom of the sea?

I'm not familiar with Charybdis' back story, but I'd hope it's something like the story of Sedna, the Inuit goddess. http://www.polarlife.ca/traditional/myth/sedna.htm

What are y'all doing for Earth Hour?

1. Went to garage, found a barrel with old used motor oil. Moved it outdoor to a safe spot.

2. Diluted with diesel.

3. Petrol + match.

 

And then there was light in the neighborhood.

[MarshalMoo]

Well, Crokey, I haven't had my light on since this morning, so I'm just going to keep it off all evening. It isn't even dark. I can't stop you from slaughtering polar bears, though.

Why was The God From Hell banned?

It was The Ghetto Jezus avoiding his temp. They're both banned now.Yay! That'll certainly make this a better place...

 

On a different note from all of this petty negativity, what is the best camera to use for car spotting? All I use is my Samsung Galaxy S4 and it isn't that good. Any help, please?

Was Team Fortress 2 ever sold for Xbox 360/PS3 as a lone copy? Besides the Orange Box..

[gtamann123]

I dont belive so. If it was it would have been a digital download only.

[RedDagger]

Nope, only with the orange box - this goes for portal and half life 2 as well.

But the orange box is so cheap it doesn't matter. I find it awesome there were still people playing a few months ago, considering it's never been updated.

[Gnocchi Flip Flops]

Should I buy the Sony DSLR A330 for car spotting? I found a used one for $220.

I need to lose a little weight so I can fit in my old suit for a wedding in two weeks. Any advice?

[Panz]

How much is a little weight? Two weeks is a short time, so I doubt you'll be able to do it in any healthy way.

 

Regardless, cut calories by a good chunk and do some high-intensity exercise that will get your heart going, and do a lot of it. Go running or maybe do some of those intense workout videos. And drink a lot of water to suppress hunger and keep your body hydrated. But don't starve yourself please.

 

Otherwise, accept that you have a glorious muffin top and strut that sh*t with pride.

[Shane_Dbns]

Thanks for the advice. By a little I mean the suit is kinda tight and I just wanna get it to fit right by losing a kg or 2

Why do people claim that Weight lifting is a way to lose weight?

Most quick weight loss from 'exercise' is the water sweated out, which is just as quickly replaced when a drink is taken.

Trading muscle for fat isn't weight loss it's conversion.

The way to 'quick' weight loss is to reduce the calories so that the body will have to burn fat. Like eating the 'Banquet' 88¢US meals instead of steak and potato regular food fest.

Weight lifting burns calories as well, just not a ton. And it's probably safer to lift weights and do cardio/eat well if you want to maintain a healthy physique.

[Otter]

The concept is threefold.

First of all, when people are talking about "losing weight", unless they've been oppressed by the media and literally aim to reach a low number for some godawful reason, they're really just talking about losing fat.

 

Secondly, any good exercise program involves at least a hint of cardio, which'll burn a decent amount of fat if done regularly and in tandem with a healthy diet.

 

And finally, the theory goes, muscles actually burn calories even when you're sitting down at your day job. Just to maintain themselves. So, literally, more mulscles = more calories burned per activity.

 

 

Of course, calories in/calories out should never be taken any more seriously than just heuristically - it's an inaccurate reflection of the processes our bodies go through but it's a handy measure of activity vs diet. If anyone wants to truly lose weight quickly - and this isn't to say it's easy, sustainable, or healthy - the Low Carb Diet, championed by dudes like Tim Ferris, is freakin' amazing. It was for me, anyhow.
