Twitchy McBlink's Bio
[ QUOTE ]
You seriously don't want to know.
Really. Stop Reading, like now.
Ok, fine! Twitchy was once just an annoying 13 year old boy with ADD when the Rikti invasion started. Despite the best efforts by heroes, a few citizen were still abducted by the aliens. One of those abducted was Twitchy.
After almost a year, Twitchy returned with green skin covered with hard pink scabs from which bones would emerge on twitchy's command. When Twitchy was found he was curled up in a little ball with a potato in his hand. He refers to his potato as George and gets very upset if someone tries to take George away from him. He speaks in a strange mix of stuttering, third person reference and unintelligible giberish. Few can understand him but everyone can tell he wished to bring back the "Spikey Spanky" on the "Wrinkly big head uglies."
Oh, and doctors also think he has Space Ebola virus.

Where I come from, men and women say what they mean to each other. It is much less complicated that way.

The land of make-believe, perhaps. Or maybe the land In Theory. In practice, it doesn't quite go like that, most times.

I wish it did.
They I wouldn't get such wierd looks when I actually try to hold an honest conversation with a woman.
I'm really bad with the wooing and flirtation process, so I try to have real dialog rather than suave flattery or small talk.
Rarely goes well.
[/ QUOTE ]
I have my moments where I just wanna cut the [censored] and take this route...I agree. Never works well.
[/ QUOTE ]
It all depends on the type of woman you want; personally I'd rather be straightforward and honest and be able to talk about anything. I'm not a touchy-feely kinda girl though, and most flattery is bs that I don't appreciate. I've got to find a nice guy who loves comic books, action movies, and believes that honor, dignity and personal responsibility still exist. If he can read more than five books in a year and discuss current world affairs without insulting those with differing opinions... I think I'd swoon.
I told my mother that if I ever got married that I'd like to get hitched in a Las Vegas chapel while dressed as a superhero/Elvis/alien, etc. Something fun and crazy. I have the feeling that I'm never getting married, lol.
[/ QUOTE ]
You and me both. Whoever it was in history that told a guy that flattery and roses was the way to a womans heart should have /wrists.
[/ QUOTE ]
kinda like whoever told the girls that the way to a men heart was through is stomach... was aiming just a bit too high.
[/ QUOTE ]
I think anything in that general direction does the trick.
But im a great southern cook with a extra flair for baking and it hasn't done me a bit of good.

So you're saying you never go for "That general area"? -

Wait, Shin, we need to find productive ways to keep this thread going, such as:
"I heard it wasn't really Cobalt at the computer all day for his birthday; in fact the real Cobalt was ____________" (fill in the blank with a word, sentence, or a whole story)
[/ QUOTE ]
In fact the real Cobalt was leading a boy scout troop.
"Mr. Azurean, that's thirty-seven merit badges today already. Can we PLEASE have lunch now? We're all hungry! Maybe just a juicebox?"
*Cobalt Sighs* "Very well, young scout. Sip 'em if you got 'em. But then get ready to count more butterflies and fish species."
"Mr. Azurean, I can't find the one you were talking about. I don't think there's a Crey Fish badge that we can get."
*Cobalt grins* "Oh, it's in there. It's in there, and we're gonna get it. If we're lucky we'll see the pirate ghost ship."
*All the kids light up* "Pirate Ghost Ship? Allright!"
*Cobalt reaches into his large backpack, starts pulling out a cache of VERY sharp axes* "Here are your temp powers. I trust no one took sands of Mu."
"What?"
"Anyways."
"Anyways what?"
"Shutup. I've never been a fan of AR, but I hot-glued this supersoaker full of napalm to an M-4. Does anyone have a lighter?" -

Man, this really IS the drama server.

All the other drama on the server and THIS is the thread you make that comment on?
This is a forum equivalent of a slap fight.

Judging from the fact you are arguing that I didn't even make my comment in the right thread, then yes. Thanks for Exhibit A.

Dude, all you do is [censored] and whine. Come back when you have something of any sort of substance to say. -

[u]PPD Detective Frietag, Suspect Interview # 2301, Case # 2300[u]
/e start playback
"Klathus said that we would be revered as his trusted associates, his...inner circle. He, of course, would be called only 'Master' for being the main cause of the demon's return to this world."
*muffled chuckling*
"He said that the demon would be more powerful than Infernal, that he could beat him and make a real name for our chapter of the Circle. He promised us that we would change the fate of Paragon forever with our new ally. Klathus...was wrong."
*delayed silence*
"We performed the ritual as instructed, opening a portal to his world. I can only imagine the type of place that would produce such a horrible creature. When the portal was opened, Klathus began to command the creature to come forth. 'Step through the gateway I have provided for you, Damien Mephisto, and bow to your master!'. The demon stepped forth, but he did not bow."
*more anxious chuckling*
"'I, Klathus, brought you to this world and you will heed my commands. You're existence is hereby bound to mine, your power an extension of my own. I command you to bow, demon!' Klathus, I was realizing, had no idea of what he was dealing with. I looked briefly up at the Spawn of Satan's face to see a smile that made my heart stop and black, soulless eyes. Those eyes will haunt me even in the afterlife, I am sure of it. Damien Mephisto had no intention of reciprocating his summoner's gesture. He spoke, then, the last words that Klathus would ever hear: 'What a joke.' That's when the room seemed to darken around him as he produced an axe and cut Klathus in half. So much for big dreams. The rest of everyone attacked immediately, but I ran away. The demon had no interest in me, so I was able to sneak away quickly."
*Silence again*
I don't even feel safe in here. I didn't know where else to turn, Detective Frietag. I feel like death himself is stalking me."

Actually most institutions take ethics very seriously and our government takes research on human subjects even more serious (although they were the worst violators in the past)

And you dont think anyone at Loyola reviewed his work prior to it being published?
[/ QUOTE ]
No i don't actually. He did not put Loyola in that paper and as far as i can tell by "published" they are refering to the fact that he placed it on his blog. I can find no Journal refrence.
Here is one of my papers you can see that both the journal and the institution are refrenced.
Identification of a survival-promoting peptide in medium conditioned by oxidatively stressed cell lines of nervous system origin.Cunningham TJ, Hodge L, Speicher D, Reim D, Tyler-Polsz C, Levitt P, Eagleson K, Kennedy S, Wang Y.

I published something once. It was a study on the effects of alcohol on people who are specifically attracted to one race yet find themselves in a room filled with everything BUT that race of the opposite gender. I called it "Phillipino, Mexican...close enough." -

Whenever you guys post something like that I start thinking that this bar is where you really belong.

lol I hate when straight women go to gay bars. It's like their hiding place from straight men. I don't care how hot she is, I'm not going in there and ending up wasting 2 hours of my time trying to hit on a lesbian! Fool me once, shame on you. You won't fool me again... -
I laugh when someone says "lol get over it nerds" in this thread, because they don't get it. Nobody wants to murder this guy, we don't wanna flex our e-pecs and go over there and threaten to beat him up at a gas station in Sac-town, and we aren't afraid of furry things because he griefed people.
Iltat seems more concerned with the fact that he slapped the community in the face. VickiVee seems more concerned that his scientific method was sloppy. Others seem concerned with at least one or the other, a good mixture I believe.
The truth is that this guy wrote a "research paper" with little to no intellectual value concerning online communities ("I griefed people, now I'm gonna downplay it and say that they overreacted."). Worst case scenario, folks, he writes a book that nobody will publish. I mean, look at the article! It's done so shoddy, there was no counterpoints or research on the subject...it's almost as if the news office either sent their least capable reporter or the reporter that they sent could care less about some video game he's probably never heard of and some guy winning a lot at it without cheating but everyone says he is cheating. Though it does remind him of the WoW episode of South Park...he likes that episode. I keep seeing a few images in my head when it comes to this thread:
1) The reporter that was contacted rolling his eyes before, during, and after any conversation he has with anyone about this piece.
2) The reporter's boss laughing about sending the reporter to report this sort of thing. The idea of actually interviewing the doctor makes him giggle, because he thinks it's all dumb too.
3) The doctor reading this thread, both laughing and becoming visibly angry. Think this kid.
4) Boobies. I see boobies no matter what subject is on my brain. Think rickroll.
Allright, that's all I gotta say. It's important to some people, but not because our feelings are hurt or anything. It's more or less because if I stood up and gave a press conference saying that this game sucked and that everyone who plays it is a [censored], you would want to stand up and say "Sir, I disagree." -
Allright, so what's with the idea that people will need therapeutic counseling? I'm pretty sure nobody is slitting their wrists at the idea of their defeat by twixt ending up in a book.

Funny how [censored] goes down.
I would take that guy's phone number off the bottom though, I won't be the first one to consider prank calling him. -
Consent forms? Yeah right. I forget the name of it, but there is a general rule in doing studies of any sort that your research will not come out genuine if your observation affects the thing you are researching. So what was he supposed to do, ask people if he could grief them in PvP to guage their reactions? That would ruin the study completely.
Now, to be fair, the study and article were both unprofessional for a lot of the reasons that people have already listed. -
