If you don't come out one day, I'll eat my Meltdown mini series.

Dude, Tiffany was the hottest chick evah back in the day.

You'll eat it anyway, bitch.

Add it up!

[mattbib]

Dude, Tiffany was the hottest chick evah back in the day.Yeah, in retrospect, but at the time I liked Debbie better. She was much more the girl-next-door.

[mattbib]

Yikes!

I was just looking for pictures of Samantha Fox and they're all naked! Now I'll probably get fired from work...lol.

[Fatguy]

Yea, Debbie was cute, but Tiffany was sexy.

[Fatguy]

The Bangles, were hot.

And I just realized I dont know how to straight up post a pic, just the link...

Yikes!

Which one was the 80's singer who posed for Playboy? Was that Tiffany, or Debbie Gibson?

OMG I so loved tiffany! I had posters of her in my locker in Grade Seven. In fact I still love her. "Hold An Old Friend's Hand" is on one of the playlists on my iPod and I have her greatest Hits on CD and her first 3 albums on tape. Yeah, I love her

[dazzler_slave]

Which one was the 80's singer who posed for Playboy? Was that Tiffany, or Debbie Gibson?

-D
It was Tiffany. She posed for Playboy and Debbie Gibson was on Skating With Celebrities. Not sure which was the better/worse career move...

[Uncle Nobs]

I'm trying to find Dazzler's Myspace profile--the one with Tiffany posing as Dazzler and George's Nagel-esque Dazzler drawing.

hmm... Nope. Can't find it. I know it's real. I've seen it.

Once you find it, let me know where it is. I would love to see Tiffany as Dazzler! I've seen the Kylie Minogue one, but not the Tiffany one

They both have.

I never liked Tiffany but I did like Debbie Gibson.

And I liked Martika!

Cay

This one isn't photo manipulation. It's actually HER page! She's actually posing as Dazz! (Of course, they've added lighting effects and such, but still, it's Tiff purposely playing Ali.)

...I think.

[Uncle Nobs]

Oops. Looks like we're talking about the same profile. They're using Kylie & Tiffany & whatever else now. It used to be almost entirely Tiffany pics.

Hillary Duff has no Dazzler in her.

Yes. I am old. I turned 30 a couple of weeks ago. I had a good cry and then got on with life. Don't worry young pup. You'll be old like me sooner than you think. It seems like yesterday I was 19 and care free. It's wierd how fast your 20's fly by.

Yeah, I had a crush on Sean Astin too. I remember being so thrilled that he showed his bum in that one

30 is the new 20. I wouldn't live my 20s again if ya paid me.

and just catching up to this thread..... HOLY CRAP you guys are all giants!

[dazzler_slave]

I'm 31! and i don't mind. I am old enough to know better now.
See, I'm conflicted. Part of me really misses being 22. I loved being young and beautiful. I loved being at University and not having to hold down a job. I could be carefree and wild and I was too young to think of the consequences. I loved feeling invincible. I loved the incredible highs one gets from being an emotional youth. I loved how intense my feelings for my friends were. The kind of intensity you can only have when you are over 13 and under 25.

On the other hand. I also enjoy being older. I like the maturity that has come with age. I like being settled down with a man I love instead of having lots of meaningless sex. I love having enough money to do whatever I want because I have a good job, instead of being a starving student. I like the mature friendships I have now, which may not be accompanied by the intense feelings and emotions of my youthful ones, but are actually much deeper and stronger.

And really, 30 or 31 (or even 37 Cay) is not really that old. We live to be between 75 and 80 on average these days. We haven't even reached the halfway point yet!

[dazzler_slave]

30 is the new 20. I wouldn't live my 20s again if ya paid me.

and just catching up to this thread..... HOLY CRAP you guys are all giants!
Yeah, I AM tall. The funny thing is my brother is only like 5'10" and my dad was about the same. My dad's whole family is short. On my mother's size, they are all about average height. My mother thinks I' a throwback to her great grandfather who was apparently 6'6"

I guess I spent most of my 20s mixed up socially, and working like a nutcase to to get ahead and get my creative shit noticed. Nowadays I feel like I've got a good bead on everything and am having a great time. And I'm in the best shape of my life (not that that's saying too much, but still..)

[Cayman]

Yeah, I'm just in Limbo right now.

February 1984
Oops, I did my math wrong. I was in Grade One in 1983. So I was in Grade 2 when you were born. Good year. I discovered the Narnia books and read them all. Loved them so much that I moved on to Lord of the Rings. The following year I would discover Boy George and Madonna and nothing would ever be the same again!

I'm a mere 5'9". Not wee, but far from tall. I wouldn't have minded being a bit taller.

*whew I'm a hair uder 5'10" Glad to have someone here I can look in the eye! ;)

I was supposed to be 6'2" according to my doctor, but I stoped growing. I think it was because I didn't eat alot my 1oth grade year, because I had a weird lunch period and didn't know anybody..
I still have big feet..

[Jack Flash]

Dazzy I get your point about being torn about your age, but not me. I have a house, kids, a man, a job, a retirment account with savings in it. at 22 I was working full time and going to school and my boyfriend was a lying cheater who I adored. I was just so damn naive back then. although part of me would love to do it again, a larger part is happy with the way everything turned out. and I wouldn't risk what I have now for all the tea in china.

Yeah, I am actually healthier now than I have been in years. I don't abuse my body with drugs and alcohol anymore so that helps! The 20's were full of turmoil but I kinda thrived on it. I was completely out at that point and revelling in it after lying to myself for my first 16 years or so. On the other hand, there was a lot of bad stuff that happened in my 20's too. I kinda gloss over those parts when I think about the glory days tho. :)

[dazzler_slave]

Yeah, I'm just in Limbo right now.

Cay
Yah, I've been there before. It sucks. But trust me, Limbo does end and hopefully you will go on to something wickedly better

My guy is 6'4" and I'd always gone for shorter guys until him. It was definitely an adjustment!

I actually envy you. I have for awhile. I have the man and I have a great job but it's not a field I love. I rent I don't own a house. Up until recently I was pretty nomadic. I also don't have the kids, but I want kids. I just never found I guy who I wanted kids with. I am hoping that this guy will be the one I want kids with. Our relationship is still too young right now, but it is strong so far and I plan to make it last.

Haha, I can imagine! Still, I'm sure it is an absolute joy to have them in your life! I love kids. I love the way their minds work. I am looking forward to being an uncle, but both my brother and sister tell me I have a bit of a wait! It would be funny if the gay sibling in the family was the first one to have children!

I am so close to dropping New X-Men. I feel so betrayed by what they have done to the characters. All the time and effort put into the first 3 years of the title was completely destroyed in 6 less than a year. Those new writers piss me off soooo much!

Summary?
Honestly? I can't even remember what was discussed. I remember some talk about saddest episodes of Buffy, Angel and Serentiy. There was the ususal gay, sex & gaysex talks. We just had a talk about age and our feelings on being in our 20's versus now being in our 30's.

I'd be pissed if it were bad, but I thinhk it's pretty well done. I would only pick NXM up once in a while and would only skim sometimes. Now I'm pretty riveted. It sux for Laurie and the bus of extras, but I'm definitely more excited about it than ever.

I don't see ANY humour in New X-Men. Just grisly deaths of minors. Honestly, I wonder where Marvel & DC's love of killing teenagers comes from? Marvel killed Cypher, Rusty Collins, Illyana, Tag, Wallflower, Icarus, Hornet, Bedlam, Synch, Skin, and many others. DC killed Superboy, Wildebeest, Danny Chase, Pre-Crisis Supergirl, Spoiler, all of Infinity Inc, and a bunch of others too. I think it's kind of sick to be constantly slaughtering children!

It's part of the whole "The Good Die Young" thing that makes comics exciting. If you're a grown-up superhero who's been saving the world for decades, you're pretty safe. But if you're a young upstart who's still getting their act together- you better watch out 'cause unless you can somehow become an A-Lister with a big fan base, your days could be numbered. I feel like the recent gauntlet the NXM kids just lived through is the challenge that will cement many of them in the Marvel Universe the way the original New Mutants were cemented. Before this, I could have easily seen many of them shunted off into limbo. Now, I can see them being around for a while.

I wonder if it all comes back to these stories being "cautionary tales" for children. Like the grusome old fairy tales where terrible shit would happen to kids..

[Zombienorthstar]

By the way...i find out about my boyfriend on tuesday. One way or another....:(
What are you finding out?

[Gaveedra 6]

Oh, that's right Mr. "Big Feet"
hehe. I probably should never have said anything about that in here... :o

[Zombienorthstar]

What are you finding out?


Whether hes leaving the country or not....i kid you not man...it has not been a good week in the life of Lewis:(

[Cayman]

Good news! I've arranged for the total destruction of Europe this weekend, so that'll keep your BF in the UK.

[dazzler_slave]

I wonder if it all comes back to these stories being "cautionary tales" for children. Like the grusome old fairy tales where terrible shit would happen to kids..
I think it's more like a slasher flick. Especially Superboy. Just like in the old Friday the 13th movies. Superboy and Wonder Girl have sex for the first time, and he immediately goes off and gets killed. Cassie better watch herself! The non-virgin never survives!

Ah, I don't follow DC stuff. That's pretty grim, and quite cliche, really. It's hard enough for comic geeks to get laid as it is! Why is DC sending out the message that having sex will kill you? Doesn't DC want its readers to start going out and making new little readers?

Kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss, ooh a master.

Along comes a faggot white boy.
look look lookin for some kinda joy.
The palm your ass so queer and quiet,
as I rebel and riot.

So, I dig the white boys..
All so much more that the black boys.
I was so pleased to learn they're not smarter.
Go on, give, give, give it to me harder, harder, harder!

You know I love the Lord of hosts,
the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost.
I was so pleased to learn that he's inside me
In my time of trouble he will hide me.

How is the Avengers League thingy going?

[The Lucky One]

I feel like the recent gauntlet the NXM kids just lived through is the challenge that will cement many of them in the Marvel Universe the way the original New Mutants were cemented. Before this, I could have easily seen many of them shunted off into limbo. Now, I can see them being around for a while.

Honestly? I respect your opinion, Gav, I see where you're coming from, but I think it's going to have the opposite effect. One death is one thing- it shocks readers and makes them more attached to the characters they have left. But the wholesale slaughter of half your book's cast is not going to make people remember the remaining ones better; on the contrary, it's going to turn them off to the book itself (as indeed seems to be the case, judging by fan buzz on NX:AX), as well as make them think, "Well, these guys are all getting killed off, no point getting attached to them." I liked the cast of New Mutants/NX:AX, but combine the elimination of half of them with six months of action-heavy, characterization-light stories and I find myself just not caring about any of them anymore. I doubt I'm going to continue reading, and I find that I really don't care if the remaining characters survive and appear again or not. I'm about ready for them to clear the decks, wait a couple of years, and then bring in the next class of Xavier students.

I guess I'm in the opposite camp. The old main cast never actually did much to thrill me. From day one I felt they were bland and was surprised they lasted as long as they did. Not to say they weren't developed nicely, but seriously. Wind Dancer? Uhh. Huh?? Sorry, I just nodded off a little as I typed her name.. :p

I think shifting the focus to characters who actually have exciting, visual components and action-based powers is the only way this book was going to survive.

Killing off so many of the background cast was a risky move. But I'm looking forward to reading about how the remaining kids deal with it. It will give them a reason to develop into bold, exciting characters, rather than just a bunch of kids who ended up at Xavier's.

And yeah, I'll miss some of them. I'll admit to having a soft spot for Laurie. But that's part of the realism in their new world. Missing your former happier, simpler life. Missing friends who were taken from you too soon. Being really fucking scared of those who fear and hate you. Those are big, realistic feelings that most definitely belong in a comicbook about mutant kids.

[Dizzy D]

Which was exactly my reaction with the new cast. Rockslide? Ooh he's really big and strong and tough and zzz...zzz... It's just the usual bunch of punch and shoot guys that were in every 90s Image team book. I knew they were going to give Elixir some type of offensive power, because hey, if you can't punch or shoot somebody, you are cannon fodder in these "realistic" settings. I've always been more interested in the less direct powers: Dani, Doug, Jamie, Warren etc.

And the dumbing down of characters to move the plot forwards annoys me. That's problably my biggest annoyance in comics: make characters do stupid things, because the writer couldn't spend 5 minutes rereading his script and go "why does he/she do that?"

They passed that point way back. One death or a few deaths affect others. You learn more about the character they now miss, how they related to them and so on. At this point the kids should be traumatized for the rest of their lives and given the chance *RUNNING* from Xavier's. If they kill of Laurie: fine, (though I like her, even with the Purple Girl duplication) it's going to affect Kevin and Josh and by extension the rest of the team. If they kill Sophia: fine, (again I like her, especially because she didn't have the emotional baggage which seems to be required for a comic book character post 1970), it's going to affect Julian, Surge and Jay. Killing Spectre or Quill is not going to affect any of the main characters, because they never really interacted with them before.

And yeah, I'll miss some of them. I'll admit to having a soft spot for Laurie. But that's part of the realism in their new world. Missing your former happier, simpler life.

Those are big, realistic feelings that most definitely belong in a comicbook about mutant kids.

And again I disagree: I don't find the new direction realistic at all. Sensationalism is more like it.

[Quarterwolf]

The best thing they could do for New X-Men is make it into a Legion type book. Have the rotating cast with a few core characters they will always have spots with and just how off the remaining characters. It would make so much more sence then having all these great characters with so much potential and just killing them off.

Good afternoon everyone.

*Quarterwolf still mourns the loss of Wolfcub.

This is only the best waking up song ever:

You could never know what it's like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, I'm coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah

Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now

I am so close to dropping New X-Men. I feel so betrayed by what they have done to the characters. All the time and effort put into the first 3 years of the title was completely destroyed in 6 less than a year. Those new writers piss me off soooo much!

So I totally just saw X3 for a third time with my best friend. My friend, she's not at all a comic book person, but she's hooked on the Bobby/Rogue relationship, so I've gotten her weened on all the X-Men films lol. But anyways, I got to say, this film gets funnier and funnier with each time. We just sat there the whole time talking and laughing about each scene.

We rolled our eyes everytime friggin Halle Berry came onscreen. Even if she wasn't on, we'd be like, "I bet she's standing over on the side. The camera will zoom on her face as Jean makes love to Logan." Such a scene-stealing bitch.

We cringed everytime Kitty Pryde shared a moment with Bobby, holding out hands in a strangling position. "He loves Rogue, bitch! Oh, and your hair sucks!"

We awwwwed like little schoolgirls for the 3 times Bobby and Rogue shared a moment, reminding ourselves that the director cut out their kissing scene at the end.

We admired Scott Summers' jeans at Alkalaine Lake, again. His jeans are really stylish. I really want a pair actually. Scott has a great fashion sense.

And we laughed everytime someone said a horribly corny/bad one-liner. Which was about every 5 minutes.

Ahhhh, X3. Loves it the most. :D

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you, so come on and do whatcha gotta do.

I love that song, mainly cause my momma loves those songs from the 70's, but anyhoo. Disco shouldn't just be a gay man treat, cause in fact, a lot of "disco" songs, we're just r&b songs, with dance tracks. It's almost the same thing with a lot of r&b and hip hop songs now. Like my all time favorite mc lite song, cold body rocks the party which samples the Upside down beat by Diana Ross--Ms. Ross, the boss(which I also love this song too, even though it came out when I was like 3)

Either way, the 40's were weird.

[Rachel Grey]

lol, no, it's slang for guys who have camel toe.

I know, I'm just jokeing that it looks like he hasn't got a penis.

[The Fury]

Morning all.

Morning Rachel, how be things?

[The Fury]

The fury isn't here enough any more either.
I'm only not here enough becuase I do not have access at night...

That and Ian holds me hostage and makes me do grueling tasks for money.

In ireland I lost a fight with a hideous type of horsefly that put me in hospital on antibiotics though. Ugh.

Blues Brothers is such a great movie.

Yeah, we got them, but apparently only really in the last 20 years, but as London is is a large city it is probably not easy for them to survive in.


And are you entering a colouring-in competition? I used to do that when i was at Primary for a local Fete. Never won though.

[Mariah]

Blues Brothers is such a great movie.
nice segue into another topic of conversation.

[The Grand Beef]

You know, I've heard NOTHING of the World Cup on the local news around here. Its all about high school (American) football in these parts.

Makes me seem a bit silly being that its so big like...everywhere else in the entire world of men.

Blues Brothers rocks the shit.

[Mikl C]

england has MOSQUITOS? since WHEN>?

[The Fury]

I dunno a couple of a decade or 2.

Kent is hard a small distance fron France, it only needs one or 2 to come over on a ferry, go through customes, buy some duty free etc etc and there you have it.


If I'm wrong I'll eat my hat, but bite marks when I lived in Kent are proof otherwise.

are you talking about the new adventures of superman? good god i loved that show.

Hey Zombie, I'm sorry I haven't chimed in about your BF. Long-distance relationships work if you both WANT it to work. No different than any other relationship challenge.

[Uncle Nobs]

...but yeah, it's really, really frustrating and scary.

Thanks Nobs...im trying not to contemplate it..ill cross the bridge when i come to it.

I've been at work for the whole day and I'll be here again tomorrow.

Not really what I want to be doing but the library can't very well survive without librarians so I really don't have that much of a choice.

Averting a nuclear holocaust is a mighty good thing to put on your resume dude. Congratulations.

I demand more seasons of Lois & Clark!!

That is understandable. I used to love that show.

[Arrjay]

True that.

Before we were married my wife and I did the ultimate long distance thing.

U.S.A and Australia.

You've just gotta keep in touch.

[Sentinel K]

USA are doing pretty well against Italy at the moment.

1-1 draw. Granted Italy scored an own goal which put USA level but they're playing quite well.

In other news, I am just going into the 2nd hour of a 24 hour drinking binge.




Yay for me.

Whats the best trade to start with if youve never read Daredevil before but you want to get up to date with Bendis' run and Brubakers run

should i start with the trade by Quesada and Smith?

Or later and if so with which trade?

I didn't really like the Smith stuff so I'd start with the Wake UP tpb with Mack & Bendis.

"Wake Up" is nice and all, but if you really want to get into Daredevil so you can start reading current issues, find the "Underboss" trade and start from there. I'd suggest Underboss, Out, Lowlife, Hardcore, The King of Hell's Kitchen, Golden Age, Decalogue, and The Murdock Papers.

If you're tight on money, just get Underboss, Out, Hardcore, The King of Hells Kitchen, and The Murdock Papers.

And there is the song "Apart" by fab synth pop band Dangerous Muse

Long distance never works.
You're making a mistake.
Cut your losses and say goodbye,
remove the stake.

They don't know our love.
Have they even tried
to risk, to fail, to right
the ends that come untied?

They don't feel how we do
and we can't change our hearts
for theirs, though times we want to.

They don't think like we do
and we can't change their minds,
though times, again we try to.

We are two minds too far apart,
held hostage by our hearts.
We are two minds too far apart,
held hostage by our hearts.

Long distance never works.
You're making a mistake.
So say goodbye.
No.

They don't know our love.
They don't care enough to try --
to fix what they untie.

They don't feel how we do
and we can't change our hearts
for theirs, though times we want to.

They don't think like we do
and we can't change their minds,
though times, again we try to.

We are two minds too far apart,
held hostage by our hearts.
We are two minds too far apart,
held hostage by our hearts.

We are two minds, two minds ...
We are two minds, two minds ...
We are two minds ... I love you --
I'll see you in my dreams.


If Dangerous Muse can make a long-distance relationship work, so can you!

I'm trying to find Dazzler's Myspace profile--the one with Tiffany posing as Dazzler and George's Nagel-esque Dazzler drawing.

hmm... Nope. Can't find it. I know it's real. I've seen it.

She's one of my MySpace top 12. And I'm #2 in hers. ;)

[Huzzah!]

I hated that show...

Dean Cain had such a shit eating grin and i STILL get the feeling that Teri Hatcher prowls the midnight streets devouring the first born sons of innocent families.


Teri was so hot in that show id probably still pop a redwood


But taht reminds me. There was one episode where i guess lois and someone else were captured and superman "couldnt save them both:" because they were soi far apart

and he used some device to split up his heat vision or whatever and did so.


SPiderman had a similiar thing in his movie


Question...has there ever been an instance where a superhuman was showboating or reaching to far and ended up losing both? Cuz there should be. Id totally write taht scene. Aunt may and Mj are thrown off a building and spidey tries to get them both and ooops


splat

[Huzzah!]

Oh baby, my heart is full of love and desire for you, so come on and do whatcha gotta do.

I love that song, mainly cause my momma loves those songs from the 70's, but anyhoo. Disco shouldn't just be a gay man treat, cause in fact, a lot of "disco" songs, we're just r&b songs, with dance tracks. It's almost the same thing with a lot of r&b and hip hop songs now. Like my all time favorite mc lite song, cold body rocks the party which samples the Upside down beat by Diana Ross--Ms. Ross, the boss(which I also love this song too, even though it came out when I was like 3)

I remember Dont leave me this way mostly because it was on the trailer, i think, of the criminally underrated summer of sam. Good movie that.

Personally im not a huge fan of most current rap. I kicks it old school mostly. New rap seems to be just about rims and "ho"s shakin that ass. Its almost a parody of rap these days. Gimme some shelltops with no laces over 20 inch rims

I blame Puff daddy.
