Man. I had to keep my composure this afternoon when a fifteen year old girl was confessing to me that she's getting oral sex from two guys. I kept my cool and kept a straight face (as much as possible) and counseled her on STD and contraception.
I know I am suppose to be detached and objective as a doctor, but we are only human.

I am not superstitious, but I try to avoid the number thirteen for some reason. It's part of my obsessive compulsive disorder.
I did have a heck of a day last Friday at work. Everyone seems to be breaking their bones and having pneumonia.

Oh yeah, I am quite civilized in my public persona. But in private, I can cuss with the best of them. And I am a raging ball of fire when it comes to some discussion.
I am not criticizing Lep for his lack of effort. If anything, he puts in a tremendous amount of work to keep the site running and bug-free.
But he has gotta do a better job at picking server hosts.

Okay, it should be "massacre".
I do believe that by putting on mascara, the Jedi would be converted to the Dark Side instantaneously.

Did you know Friday the 13th was originally labeled bad luck because of the Knight's Templers? If anyone has read "The Da Vinci Code", you'll know what I'm talking about. It's the date when the secret society was almost wiped out (like the massacar for the Jedi knights by the Sith) in the Middle Ages.
Threads like this appear because this is one of the few ways that I can keep up with the latest at the SnarkPit error/trouble. Obviously, I wouldn't even know if it's up or changed URL again except for posts like these.
Maybe it'll be www.snarkpit.edu this time? Who knows.

I have my own blog there, and there is a HL2 community.

Well, I just noticed that SnarkPit is back online again. But who knows when it's going to go down in the future.
I might as well move over to TWHL permanently. The forum discussion is interesting and I can expect it to be here for me any day of the week.
Well, it seems as predictable as death and taxes. The 404 error starts popping up again at www.snarkpit.net. I just told a friend about the site, and now he's going to think I'm a liar because the URL doesn't exist. :
Dont use sunscreen to masturbate withHey, I tried that and it worked for me. You just gotta stay away from the cheaper brand of sunscreen.
Never put any stickers on your penis. It's funny when you put it on, but not so funny anymore when you try to remove it. 
Yeah, but these small aesthetic flaws never interfere with the gameplay (unlike the multitude of gameplay bugs in Far Cry).
If you look closely enough in Ravenholm, you can spot many examples of overlapping textures (most commonly with static models/brush interface).
But again, it doesn't detract from the beauty of the game.

The concept bothers me..But it's no different than saying we don't have our private jets, so we don't have the ability to fly to anywhere in the world on a whim (like some rich bastards).
Having money makes you privileged, even though you might not deserve it.
These two are from Far Cry. I love the outdoor scenary. Sometimes I feel like I'm hiking, except there are mutants trying to eat me alive.

Hey, what's wrong with that? I get turned on by good maps all the time.
No point. Absolutely none.
It's like nitrogen. It takes up space, but you can't really see anything.

I think it's more fitting for GMan to sing instead of Gordon. Freeman is just a bit too geeky to be a singer.
I didn't think MIT gave voice lessons as part of its curriculum.

What's the context for the lyrics? Was it written before HL2? If so, it's surprisingly fitting to the HL2 story.
Crowded streets are cleared away
One by One
Hollow heroes separate
As they run
You're so cold
Keep your hand in mine
Wise men wonder while
Strong men die
[Chorus]
Show me how it ends it's alright
Show me how defenseless you really are
satisfied and empty inside
That's alright, let's give this another try
If you find your family, don't you cry
In this land of make-believe, dead and dry
You're so cold, but you feel alive
Lay your hands on me one last time
[Chorus x2]
It's alright [x9]

I downloaded and saved it. I watched it half a dozen times already.
I actually like the music, even though I am not a heavy metal fan. It kinda reminds me of Evanescence, and I like that song from the soundtrack of "Dare Devil" (Bring Me to Life).
I am working now, and the song is just stuck in my head now. I just hope I don't accidentally whistle it at work.

I wish it has more clips of Dog throwing things. But my favorite part of the video is the beginning and towards the end, where you see all the rebel fighters aiming their weapons and watching apprehensively. Great camera work!
And the last fraction of a second in the video, it says something like "Rise and Shine" and something else. I tried reading it by slowing the framerates down, but I still couldn't catch the full message.
Site is up again :cool:.

/me slaps Satchmo for being such a intolerate non-DivX fool.60 MB isn't much better than 72 MB.
"I am Still Seeing Breen" is a music video made entirely from the Source engine. It's an awesome video. It has captured the best of HL2, and the direction incorporates into the soundtrack seamlessly.
It's a relatively large download. So it'll take a long time if you don't have broadband. It's still worth the wait.

I am sure of that. But most of them never get interested enough to start.
Yeah, I've heard that female gamers mostly play Solitaire on an Alienware machine with dual-core processor.
As far as girls mapping goes...There are probably less than a dozen of them on this planet.

SnarkPit seems to be down (again!). :
Interesting. I've never seen a video card for a laptop before. 
The rappeling occurred quite a few times (especially during the Water Hazard level). I also used it in my map (sp_justice).
What if you use the same trigger to have the output to induce an env_explosion to break the func_breakable first, so the rappeling police can go through?

What's the price difference between a 9600XT and a 9800Pro? I'd say go for the 9800 if it's not too much more expensive.
Why Normandy in particular? Why don't other soldiers who gave their lives in other wars deserve your sympathy? :
some of us cant afford that kind of stuffYeah, I know. That's how I justify to myself whenever I get called in last-minute to work. All the additional hours are just paying off my machine, and I reward myself with a new game or another piece of hardware.
And that's another reason to study hard now and get a high-paying job later, for all you students.
Take a look around the forum and the map vault. HL2/Source mapping is well and alive.
By the way, if you got time, take a look at my map sp_justice (http://twhl.co.za/mapvault_map.php?id=2719) and let me know what you think.

15fps is not smoothSeventh is right. You don't even know what you're missing and the sweetness of 110 fps unless you've played HL2 on a good machine.
I thought I had it good when I played HL2 on my Celeron/Radeon 9200 with 512 MB of RAM. But now I'm playing it again on my new rig, and I can't imagine going back to anything below 50 fps anymore.
A travel guide to Northern Italy. I'm going there on my honeymoon in September.
I have to be honest. From those screenshots, I am not a bit inspired. The architecture looks quite bland, and I think there are a few lights without a source (no light fixture models).
And the SandBox Editor sucks too. So don't even think about mapping for it.
Now, millions of dollars are at stake while people bet on who's going to be the next pope.
The Sistine Chapel has been scanned for electronic bugs before the conclave begins. It's sad they had to do this.

I wonder how much semen does a regular man produce over the period of his entire lifetime.
Must be pretty significant too. But so much of it is wasted. Pity.

I had problem playing it with my old computer that only had 512 MB of RAM. It would go well most of the times, but when there is a helicopter above, the framerates wuold drop like crazy.
By the way, I am at the bunker now. It feels a lot like Quake II or the original Doom.

For the armory, I used stealth. I prefer this style because I try to imagine myself as the player in a realistic situation. In real life, I don't like to get hit by bullets, so I typically go through the entire level without getting hit once.
I hid in the jungle surrounding the armory, and I used my sniper rifle to snuff out all the snipers in the towers. Then I used the binocular to spot each one of the mercs and kill them one by one, moving slowly around the perimeter, camouflaging in the bushes.
They die without even knowing what hit them!

...but it's extremely buggy. The forum posting is all messed up--it doesn't recognize the newline character.
Yeah, and Catholicism isn't weird. Like eating the body of Christ? That's frigging cannibalism.
I am not against any religion, but I hate even more when someone picks out a religion and attacks it.

Only up to the 3rd chapter thing (starts with the inflatable boat drive thing) and so far its the best part of the game.The best is yet to come. I haven't gotten that far either, but I am somewhat farther than you. Just play it a bit longer, and you'll get to fly on a glider. That was a spectacular experience.
And using the sniper rifle with extremely long range? That makes me feel alive!
Happy belated birthday, Rabid!
I wonder what's the world record for the oldest HL mapper. Probably in the sixties?
