X-Crescence XLVII: Down in the Flood

[Brian Cronin]

Welcome to X-Crescence, which is from the word excrescence, which is defined as "An outgrowth or enlargement, especially an abnormal one, such as a wart."

Well, this is an outgrowth from the X-Boards proper.

This is where you pretty much can post whatever you want.

Civility rules apply here!

Enjoy.

[Flight]

Why is Sentinel K the only one who can SEE THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!~~?~~~

[Sentinel K]

Fuck.

I'm currently getting 20 on-going marvel titles.

Then there's Avengers: Initiative and WWH coming up.

I need to drop some. About 5 I reckon. :(

Tradewait - it's the future...

[Sentinel K]

Tradewait - it's the future...

I actually think i CAN drop a few titles.

Wolverine is gonna be dropped after Guggenheims next stint. Granted thats not for 10 issues... but stilll.

Wolverine origins is gone after the next arc. Dunno why i'm still getting it anyway.

2 of the 3 Spidey titles are gonna have to go too. Probably keep Friendly neighbourhood as i'm rather enjoying it and Madrox keeps popping up in it too.

I really don't want to drop First Class but as it has no bearing on current continuity it's very near the chopping block.

[xgeek52]

hey sentinel, first class is the only decent x title out there right now...

continuity be damned...

[Karl H]

Wolverine origins is gone after the next arc. Dunno why i'm still getting it anyway.

Wise words, wise words...

Agreed.

I'm enjoying all the books i'm reading at the moment. Some just more than others.

IMO Marvel is 'kicking azz and takin' names'.

Sunday afternoon song

Doo doo doo

So there's my baby
Laughing at me in the sun
Wonder if I'm the weaker one
I feel so far away from home
Always so far away

The Pacific will pacify us when we're done
If only we weren't always spun
I feel so far away from home
Always so far away

From El Caminos in the west
All collapsed and futureless
I'll paint the words a simple wish
For peace of mind and happiness
El Caminos in the west
We're all collapsed and futureless
I'll paint the words a simple wish
For peace of mind and happiness

Doo doo doo

Here comes the chaos
Perfectly on time again
Is it ever gonna end
I feel so far away from home
Always so far away

The demolition still can be a lot of fun
Someone should tell me that I'm done
I feel so far away from home
Always so far away

From El Caminos in the west
All collapsed and futureless
I'll paint the words a simple wish
For peace of mind and happiness
El Caminos in the west
We're all collapsed and futureless
I'll paint the words a simple wish
For peace of mind and happiness

Doo doo doo

CW got me buying all 3 Spidey titles, FF, Punisher WJ and now Mighty Avengers and Avengers: Initiative.

And then there's Ant-Man and Iron Fist, both of which i'm loving.

[Mikl C]

Uk people, do you ever pick up the panini monthly reprints?
They're about a year behind, but 3 issues reprinted for £2.50 is so much better value. No ads either.
I think this is how I shall collect spiderman from now on.

I got Essential X-Men #90 to #110. That took me from the awful 12 saga to the start of New X-Men and X-treme where i already had the trades.

And yeah, they are damn good value.

But haven't read them for a while... Cracking value and no ad's for Hulk scented eau de toilette or the US Army - I can see the appeal

How is it possible that the guy who writes Ghost Rider the same guy who writes Wolverine:Origins? His GR is so much better.

eeeek

The episode was amazing!! the whole time she keeps telling Cox that everything happens for a reason, and he tries to convince her she's wrong. He shows her a 8-year old girl that was stabbed and asks her what was the reason in that case? Eventually, they find out a big tumor on the girl, that they wouldn't have found if she wasn't stabbed. Cox says it's a coincidence and Laverne says that she's been working there for years and years, she saw kids and good people die and she needs to believe everything happens for a reason, and that he should stop trying to take that away from her. Great scene. Then Laverne says to Cox that Jordan had complications with the baby but now she's a better person who knows how to value Cox, because he was there for her all time (indeed, Jordan thanks Cox earlier in this episode in a cute scene). Then Cox realizes she's right. We get to see that montage they always do in the end of episodes. Cox happy hugging Jordan, Elliot and Kelso talking again (they've been fighting this season), Carla and Turk happy with their kid. Then Cox comes back to the hospital and sees JD, Kelso, Carla, Turk and Elliot all sad. They say Laverne had a car acident coming from work and fell into a coma. The End.:(

I thought trains were considered pretty sucky every day of the week.

Well, no.

On my way down to Kent trains were great, I got on at Nottingham, arrived in London on time, got on tube, arrived at next station on time, got train to Faversham...on time, all good. Total journey time about 3.5 hours.

Journey back, train from Faversham going well got to gillingham, had to get off train to get on buss, to take me to another station round works they are doing, so far because of this +20 minutes on my journey. Then as it came to london it slowly trickled to Victoria and stopped at a few stations it didn't need too...so, 35 minutes on my journey.

Went through london fine, got on new train to Notts. This train stopped at stops for 15 minutes for no reason, took forever to go from one to the next, the journey here took twice the time.

Basically, I was traveling just under 200 miles in 6 hours. I could have walked faster then that.

Oh, and happy birthday Tre Styles! :)
It does seem a little fuzzy. I'll see if I can find anything better for ya.

The pic came from here. So maybe you can tweak the full size one?

I may have been able to fix it myself. I didn't see that the site has it's own avatar editing.

[Dizzy D]

Classic:



Awesome, still doesn't beat his version of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds though.

[Frodo-X]

Okay, Beast, I tried a couple things, so let's see how they look. The shrinking is what was fuzzying it, so here's what I did:

The first two are your version with the brightness, color, and contrast tweaked. The last two are the original image cropped down to 80 x 80.

Oh, cool! Yeah, that works better than the ones I did.

Cool site you found!

[Frodo-X]

I'm not feeling very well all the sudden, so I'm gonna head off for a while.

Hello hello!

[twilight]

AHHHHHHHHH!

I have to re-do a whole section of FF6 because I never remember to save :(

Is there some kind of cheat code I can put in that erases Ultross from the game?
He's a shit.

[Kaos]

What's really good, fam?

[Jack Flash]

agggh! 52 spoilers! Sobek is a bad guy! Osiris and Isis dead! So sad!

[twilight]

Carey's is the lowest selling X-title?

;_;

Little late on that, bub.

[1WEBHEAD]

;_;

That's ironic.:confused:

:Looks at Twilight's sig:

So what do you think of Little Miss Sunshine?:)

[Jack Flash]

Little late on that, bub.

I am just catching up. I dropped it with #40 and then in a fit of madness caught back up again. and I liked Sobek!!!!!!!!! and Isis was so pretty! but I kinda saw the betrayal coming.

[twilight]

That's ironic.:confused:

:Looks at Twilight's sig:

So what do you think of Little Miss Sunshine?:)

Loved it.

There was a few pieces here and there that didn't gell for me but overall it was fantastic and it's probably the second best movie I've seen this year.

[twilight]

Twi: *watching the beginning of Little Miss Sunshine* I bet this movie has some Sufjan Stevens in it.

Three scenes later: BAM Sufjan Stevens!

[Kaos]

I'm about to watch TMNT

[1WEBHEAD]

Loved it.

Same here. Too bad my friends and family didn't think it was too hot.

It's up there along with "The Departed" and "Pirates of the Caribbean II: Dead Man's Chest" as my favorite 2006 movies.:cool:

[Kaos]

Same here. I thought it deserved more than awards than it got. Too bad my friends and familyt didn't think it was too hot.

The Departed is one of my favorite movies of all time.

[twilight]

I loved Dwayne.

The scene where he finds out he's colour blind was amazing.

[1WEBHEAD]

I loved Dwayne.

The scene where he finds out he's colour blind was amazing.

It broke my heart seeing him like that. He was so determined and motivated to accomplish his dream but to see it crushed like that...:( man....

[rilokyle]

Evening tricksters.

I'm slaving over some art project due tomorrow morning- its almost 2 in the morning here and I'm exhausted.



So obviously I'm procrastinating at CBR cos I'm a tard.

[1WEBHEAD]

The Departed is one of my favorite movies of all time.

At first it was a bit annoying how almost everybody dropped the f-bomb instead of using a regular adjective but it still was an awesome movie and a great thriller.

"The Illusionist" was jsut as awesome too. It's like the "Sixth Sense" but cooler IMO. :cool:

[xgeek52]

evening to all the genius nerds and freak and geeks...

the apartment move is back on...management has promised to fix what's wrong...may take a little longer but we've got clout...

monster jam is done, but the grand prix is in two weeks...

[david r]

Xgeek, you once said you had issues with Chris Claremont. What were they?

[xgeek52]

*chuckles*

you and your steel trap mind...

claremont is brilliant when it comes to the xmen but he has a habit of writing himself into a corner, when he plots these panaramic(sp) views of the mutant universe... he creates scenarios that becomes the backstory for the xmen and the powers that be hafta a) ignore them or b) find away around them...

days of the future past is a perfect example...the story laid the ground work for what was to come but i've only seen splinter versions -- and sometimes it was when he was writing them...

the neo was the other...it was brillant story but there's not hint of them now...

i partially blame the marvel editors, but i blame him too...what he created with bryne is classic xmen...what he did with xtreme was classic too...but the editors and the man have been at odds when it come to 1) backstory and 2) continuity...

everybody right now has high hopes for carey...there's even a thread calling him the new claremont...carey is a good writer don't get me wrong...but claremont made the xmen and in doing so he unleased the genie that marvel is trying to put back in the bottle...

hey a writer, writes...claremont is a good writer...but in light of the past decade and the new cabal of xmen editors, he can't be an xbook writer...

he's too good and they won't let him..

[Novaya Havoc]

Christ. When did X-Books turn into the Claremont board? This blows. Blugh.

Oh, Mariah. Oh, Tetra. Return to us.

[xakko]

Robotech: the Shadow Chronicles didn't suck.

this is good.

damn, i liked that cartoon. (waits for anime fan to come in and say how much better Macross was...)

[xgeek52]

not to worry novaya...david sometime throws things at me and i'm a little long winded in responding...

*bows*

you have my apologies..

[Ryan K]

Hollah at ya boy.

[Cayman]

Started reading "Heart Shaped Box", the first novel by Stephen King's son Joe Hill tonight. Really good so far, it gets going almost immediately.

[Hi-Fi]

Hollah at ya boy.
Dude, I missed you!


Also, I hate Pete's new thread. If I don't control myself, I'll be full of rage Victor again.


And caney!! Don't you dare vanish again!! I did a lot of bad things while you were away!:evilangry

Is Dolores from the Cranberries a lesbian?

The more I think of it, the more I don't think it's fair to Carey to compare him to Claremont. 10 issues in is tough to do, plus that's gonna be tough shoes to fill.

[Ryan K]

Dude, I missed you!


Well thank you. I've missed the lot of you as well.

Its weird being absent for such long periods of time like I have been the last couple months. I finished my internship about a month ago and I just haven't had a chance to really jump back in here.

How's everything with you? Everybody else? Cay?

I think BKV Ultimate is a better comparison.

BKV Ultimate is > most of CC's Uncanny.

The only CC uncanny I really liked was like, DPS prior + some Rogue + much of 200 onward. Freedom Force was good. MM + Marauders were good. X-Tinction was good. Inferno was good only for Madelyne, demons were lame. Other than that, mostly forgettable for me.

It's why I never jived with Storm, Kitty, Nightcrawler, or Rachel. I thought those eras were pretty weak. Just me.

[Cayman]

I love BKV. He's so amazingly good.

Yea, I like the DPS stuff, than his run of crossovers Mutant Massarce - Xtinction Agenda I like those crossovers. I'll agree on BKV, he was setting up a lot. Hopefully he will comeback.

I love BKV. He's so amazingly good.

Yes. yes he was.

[Hi-Fi]

Is Dolores from the Cranberries a lesbian?
I don't think so. I think she's married and has a son.

I love ANGRY VIC + ANGRY MIA.

LOL, don't say that. Angry Vic is NOT a nice sight.

Cay, the last arc of Y is shaping so nicely!! Is Vol. 9 out already? What was the last Vol. you've read??

[Cayman]

Should I give Jodi Picoult's Wonder Woman run a chance?

It is a pretty small comic week for me.

[Cayman]

Cay, the last arc of Y is shaping so nicely!! Is Vol. 9 out already? What was the last Vol. you've read??

It was the Kimono Dragons one. Looks like 9 comes out on May 2nd.

Was Kurt Russell in that one too?

lol. I saw that. Well, I'm back to spice it up a bit. How are you? I saw what you said while I was banned. That was so nice!*hugs*

[Sophisticated_Gamer]

Well, Family Guy today was totally awsome! especially the carpet part.

Also, did any of you see the House commercial? Wtf, why do they need to extend American Idol 7 minutes? Why such an odd number? O well, that show is crap anyway. Hopefully because of that, House will have less commercials in it.

[mattbib]

S_G, does the name "Darkstar" translate into Russian? Or would it just be the same as it is in English?

[jeangreydp]

Curb Your Enthusiasm --> Extras--> Da Ali G Show

Well it dose, if you separate it into dark and star... Otherwise I don't think so...why did you ask?

[mattbib]

Well it dose, if you separate it into dark and star... Otherwise I don't think so...why did you ask?I just drew her for that DMAX-Jam thread and was curious. Since she's Russian, I wanted to add her name in Russian, but I figured it probably didn't translate.

I know right? The last ten minutes of the show alone made it rock harder than any other show currently on TV.

I mean, dude. Cylons are fans of classic rock! Who knew?

But are they Dylan fans or Hendrix fans?


I guess this means that Cronin is a Cylon.

[Kalen O.]

I guess this means that Cronin is a Cylon.

Hmm, the quintessential question. My guess is that's the reason the other seven models never talk to the Final Five anymore. Musta been a big falling out over the merits of Dylan vs Hendrix.

And I think you may be right about Cronin, that frakkin toaster. He locked down the old X-Cres thread last night just before I posted my big informative drunken ramblings, and I so was about to call him a genocidal fascist baby killer. It's totally the same thing.

No what's worse that this was real-world and I was so drunk I thought she was Faded
SO FUCKING SCARY.
