Hard to believe Tim Curry is 71 years old now.

Rocky Horror Picture Show was awesome, I used to go see it at a theatre which played it every Friday night and people actually acted out the movie as the movie played.

The best part was when the wedding took place because movie goers came equipped with bags of rice which they slung all over the place, rice was thrown at everyone and everything. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't... I just do what I want to do because I am an adult and life isn't worth being serious about. You are going to die and the Universe will never know you existed.

ive been struggling to play lately and haven't played (anything) at all for several months. ive never felt bad about playing though. if I'm not having fun, i don't play. if i don't want to invest blocks of time (current situation) i don't play. just bought Skylanders Imaginators and am having a little fun with that :3 you can make your own fricken skylander and unlock all sortsa different looks and stuff as you play ^^

Your existence is a means for the Universe to experience itself.

Of course!

With out you, Norrath doesn't exist. If a Vulak drops a Mask and no one is there to loot it, was there a Vulak at all? In these sleepless times, we must all ask ourselves, What's your excuse?

As I see it there are 3 types:

1- The Sleepless: The sleepless believe in a perfect world. They see life as it is, as how it should be. All pain and suffering is a necessary cause for the greater good. And the good is how it has been, always.

2- The Awakened: The awakened believe in an imperfect world. They see life as it could be. All pain and suffering can be eliminated through effort. They believe we can make a better world.

3- The Agnostic: Now, the agnostic are the most interesting bunch, I think. They see the world as uninteresting, even if beautiful. Norrath is a means for their thoughts to exist. They live very much within themselves. Their minds wander through the fields of the Karanas, unaware of the problems in far away lands.

I had a “moment” a few months ago. I can’t play long sessions because I have a pregnant wife and a 3 year old but when I WAS logging on I spent every moment in the sarnak fort trying to get a bracer of the hidden. I spent over two weeks there and never got one. I did make about 3k in vendor trash and got 5-6 chodiki prods, and essentially could have bought the bracer outright at that point, but I was too proud. Took 2 month or so break to re-evaluate why I was playing. Came back because I like my guild a lot.

Stuff like that really triggers my OCD. I about lost my mind trying to camp sarnak courier for a ring recently.
