Woohoo, official off-topic thread!

I know. Manly.

Moocow, got something for you.

YouTube video Glad they picked Alan Silvestri for it instead of Hans Zimmer.

Is it possible to create a spoiler tag that is in the form of a drop down box in KMC? rather than just greyed out text, other forums seem to have a button that has "spoiler" (or w/e you want on it) that you press to open the hidden text.

I find it useful for breaking up a long post with different info in it without stretching the pages. I assume KMC does not support it but if theres some html or code you can put in rather than

Spoiler:
grey boxes

just spent an hour taking apart, cutting plastic, stripping wire(with a knife and not a wire stripper), and soldering, to fix one small stupid break in a small stupid wire on my arcade stick... Afterward I thought "I should have checked to see if I had a warranty..."

edit: also cut my finger. worth it to play Eternal Champions 2 on my sega cd emulator though

Red is just that cool. Except for the gambling problems.

Red is a BAMF. No doubt. Its hard to decide who's badassier, him or Gary Mofo Oak.

Also, did anyone else think WW Ganon got screwed over royal? I mean, in a world where the wind and stuff are actual beings his country is basically being genocided. All he wanted was a nice place to live and he gets a sword to the forehead, jeez.

Ganondorf in WW is my favorite, nostalgia aside. He had a reason for his actions beyond Evuls, and though he was going a little too far, you can kinda-sorta see where he's coming from.

Then he goes insane and whips out those swords, being utterly badass. Rawk.

Ash is a TV character, aimed primarily at children. The Pokemon Manga is still fairly kid friendly, but it's nowhere near the level of the anime.

Ash is getting a bad rap because he's a tool to teach kids that sometimes you'll just fail but that doesn't mean you're supposed to quit.

Plus, everyone loves Team Rocket and Ash's trainer skills have been much more buffed lately.

And Gary Oak is a complete ****ing loser anyway, so nobody really cares about Ash's rival.

*****. Please.

can't seem to post the image for some reason.

Pathetic argument is pathetic. If simply having cheerleaders meant you were awesome, that'd mean the Detroit Lions were awesome, and so are women's sports teams.

As for the other stuff. I'm sure Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber have all the same shit.

To be honest, the anime would genuinely be better if Gary was the main character. Dead serious.

No it wouldn't. Because then you'd spend a half hour of your day following around a complete and total douchebag.

That's what Jersey Shore is for. >_>

Actually thats what House is for. Jersey Shore can eat a dick.

He is missing gym badges that Ash actually has though.

Gary does suck at tournaments more than Ash but that is about it.

One of the worst articles I have ever read...

If you are going to ***** and moan about Boss fights don't use Zelda or MGS as some of your examples...

Agreed. And that final insane laugh he had... EPIC! Too bad TP had to come along and rid him of his character development...

I don't get that article. I mean...I just don't get it. It's well written I guess and has some good points I guess...But his problem is something that isn't exactly excluded to videos. All mediums have stories where the hero confronts a big final boss...

Really!? Worse than the guy who was getting his ass whooped by a fvcking Bellsprout? Daym.

Ash did in fact beat Bellsprout though. Whereas Gary was practically beaten offscreen, I think a round or two before Ash lost. And then beaten by Ash later on in Johto. Tournaments just are not his thing.

Tobias is just a cheating prick though.
