    There might be a name for it, but If there is, I'm unaware of it. And yes, it's mostly branches and leaves. :) The urbex (mine anyway) isn't my favorite either, in raw form. I do use shots from my urbex trips as source material to make the ones in the last set though, so it pays...

    I wish my lag was broken. This DSL stuff is awful.

    Do we argentine have a fame of being racist?

    Wait, these were Americans? On the internet? That sounds like they were trolling to me. I thought you meant they were people from a real country with standards of etiquette.

    Those are some nice locations. He's got a good eye for framing, too. Not to sound like a pretentious critical jerk, but I'm not overly fond of HDR photos; the line between enough HDR and way too much HDR is hard for most photographers to recognize. I personally can't do it without going...

    NDAA

    This. A thousand times. Never met such a deliberately ignorant bunch of sky-wizard loving freaks until I moved to Georgia. Now I'm in Oklahoma...not worse, not better, the kool-aid is just a different flavor. Seconded. If McCain had won we'd already be running low on nukes. Presidents...

    Hell, I'll gladly take 7.5. Ignorance is natural. It's a picture of tree roots and leaves, mirrored. larger version Also 10/10. I feel like that skeleton right now. Long day.

    Plot-holes and logical inconsistencies of FO3?

    Unfortunately, FO2 was made before developers figured out that every video game is supposed to start with the player escaping from/being released from prison. The tribal thing is just an historical anomaly.

    Do we argentine have a fame of being racist?

    Never really associated Argentina with racism. I think of penguins, silver, the Falklands war, locro, and asado. And futbol. Not racism though. But I'm from, the US, so I'm essentially ignorant when it comes to the cultural behavior of anyone who lives more than 1000 meters from me...

    Is it possible?Economic collapse and War's brewing?

    The US (or any other sovereign entity) can, at any time, for any reason, or no reason, tell any creditor to pound sand. justification The trouble with doing that in the case of China is that a) no one else is going to loan us any money, and b) no one else is going to lend us any money. Our...

    Actually, yes, I do. Most military organizations dropped that 'no flat feet' thing back in the 80's. Edit: That said, I wasn't actually trying to mock your affliction, just trying to point out that it's not the case that it will prevent most people from serving.

    9/10, because TinEye can't find that image anywhere else. Also, zombies.

    Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition trailer released

    NV was good fun. Was the DLC worth playing? By which I mean, is it worth buying this again for 40 bucks just to get all the DLC? Although I'll probably just wait a year and buy it used from gamestop in exchange for some pocket lint and a chewed-uon pen cap. Still question stands...good...

    Also, if you go army, consider being a chaplains assistant, given question number three. An army chaplain has one of the strangest congregations ever, imo. (Well, aside from a super-max prison chaplain.) You could learn quite a lot working with a chaplain, if you are serious about going on...

    I'd like to second pretty much everything TR said about the army, aside from the specifics on what he did and where he went, as I wasn't a mechanic, and didn't go to Iraq. I was a Network Switching Systems Operator and Maintainer, and didn't go anywhere, although I almost got to go to Japan...

    I don't know what this is, in a pigeonholing sense. It's fun to make though.

    Some urbex...which is about as close to true "fallout fan art" as I'm likely to get.
