    How are you doing in your school?

    Because the story of choosing a major solely based on how great your quality of life will be 4-5 years down the road, even if you kill off your social skills in the meantime - makes all the pretentious Engineering students look like dicks. Which is why I don't do it. EDIT: Course, that was...

    Well that's heartbreaking.

    London 2012 Olympics

    News of China's heavy-handed "teaching" techniques have been around for ages, including now. It's up to you if you find that "unsavoury" or not, but compared to "a lot of other countries", I have never seen or heard of training like that. The 4 by 4 relay heats were aboslutely brutal, but...

    London 2012 Olympics

    Bolt's post-race celebration so far has been far more entertaining than the race itself. Kudos to Jamaica on the sweep, and good push by Weir and Blake-o-saurus

    London 2012 Olympics

    Well I was hoping for a bit more serious answer, but that made me laugh - so I'll settle :yes

    London 2012 Olympics

    Here's a question I've had for some time now, and had just gotten worse with this Olympics due to myself not realizing the answer. How exactly do they show those virtual cards of name+countries of athletes in their respective lanes of the pool and track (800m or down I guess, although you...

    The Dark Knight Rises [Warning: Use spoilers tag]

    Yeah, Bruce Wayne is killed off in the comics, although technically not by his father. As for the movie ending,

    The Dark Knight Rises [Warning: Use spoilers tag]

    Nolan always leaves up room for interpretation. There are obviously major glares like , but the ones that article point are mostly just being facetious in the thematic points Nolan brings up. If you look close enough, Batman Begins and the Dark Knight have similar ones all throughout them...

    London 2012 Olympics

    My understanding from what the commentators said is that the initial score Uchimura got was on the basis that the judges did not believe he went into a handstand before his dismount - which meant his difficulty score suffered. The Japanese coaches then disputed that, and after the expert panel...

    London 2012 Olympics

    I was rather impressed by the opening ceremony. Totally managed to better my expectations (which admittedly wasn't too high after Beijing's opening ceremony or the preview for the London one during the '08 closing ceremonies, but that show was genius [or British, take your pick]). The...

    I am leaving/back thread

    This place looks a tad different from when I was here :spy Think I wanna start sticking around again. Now that can't be smart.

    The anticipation for the Dark Knight Rises has left me very aroused. Not sure if this is the right place but I really needed to tell someone :)

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Right on about MOH. Probably off topic in this thread but this is the newest trailer for the Oct 12-release (Oct 15 Europe) of the reboot: Regardless, can't wait to see how both of these shape up when fall comes around.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    So even though IW seems to be in tatters, the CoD series seems to be continuing in full swing - at least for this year. New teaser: Gametrailer's analysis:

    You make no sense dude. How can you change a word to the same word? See, I can type Chris Martin just fine. C-h-r-i-s, M-a-r-t-i-n. :)

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Another year, another CoD game. This time it's Treyarch's time to keep the cycle going, and the 7th official iteration (without any of the expansion packs) of the series reportedly takes place "between WWII and present day", is based on the Vietnam and/or Cold war, and takes players around some...
