  1. do you have an account somewhere e.g. deviantart?

    i like the freaky guy with the plants behind him.

    Nah, I don't have an account anywhere thunder. Probably should make one aye :wink:

    The guy with the plants behind him is one of my favourites too, it was one of the first that I tried using comic book-style shading on. I am pretty pleased with how it turned out.

  2. ^^^

    haha. Anyone going to see Meshuggah? Last time i checked tickets were about $50. Hopefully they wont be sold out by the time i get some cash.

    cheers

    Yeah Boy! I've got my tickets to the Brisbane show, with 3 or 4 other people. The tickets were only $60 with postage and everything, pretty good deal. :wink: Less than a month away, I'm soooooooo fuckin excited. :P I hope you get some cash together Son, I'm betting they will be well worth it.

    Anyone else going to the Brisbane show?

  3. Thanks for posting Sina. Nice corrolation of articles.

    I always thought the ban was stupid, but didn't realise how much the government had contradicted themselves. It's farked that they have left not only the Australian indigenous community, but also the Melanesian with issues that they both don't need.

    And like t st tantra said touched on, what's the go with the raids and illegality of kava back in 2003?

  4. Yeah man, cod4 all the way :)

    PM me your gamertag and maybe we can play together one time

    Ive played Stinkmeat before and he is pretty good, he's online a lot of the time but rarely plays COD4 much anymore :(

    Haha, sorry AA. I've been more wrapped up in my Wii. Super Smash Bros and Metroid Prime 3 FTW! I need to get the new COD4 maps, then I'll be back in business :wink:

    The same goes for me too, anyone who has COD4, Halo 3, UMK3 or The Orange Box, PM me you gamertag if you wanna play.

  5. Thanks for the replies! :lol:

    It makes me want to put my mind to this a bit more than I have been.

    My favourite one is the one that MORG mentioned. The far left on the bottom row of 3.

    Reptyle - With that beard pattern, I think I just started with the section directly below his chin. I tried to get it somewhat symetrical, but went a bit AWOL. Then I went on the the 4 main spirals on each side. I usually don't do it all at once, just the significant designs at first, then go back and fill the gaps with smaller ones. I don't know if that will make any sense at all :wink: Hopefully it does.

    Thanks again

  6. A collection of artworks that I have done over the past couple of years. They never get much exposure outside of friends, so let me know what you think.:) My style varies all the time and there are a few different materials used. Mostly just pencil drawings though. As you can probably tell, most of my inspiration comes from cartoons/animation and psychedelics.

  7. Anyone playing Spore at the moment?

    It's on the list of games that I want. Looks really cool.

    What sort of hardware specs do you need to run it? High end or mid range?

    Also interested to hear what you think of it.

  8. i like to punch things

    HAHA! Gold! :lol:

    I enjoy the odd game or two to help me relax, but if I lose, I get pissed off and start to get all jittery. :P Trying not to think is a good one too. Doing some sort of stretching or yoga puts me in a really good frame of mind. Then I usually make a nice cup of tea and sit on the back steps or lawn and just watch the plants and animals. Whenever I'm feeling a bit more energetic, a walk in the botanical gardens or local wilderness reserve does me well. The beach is probably one of my favourites, but not always accessible.

  9. I don't have one idea/theory that i believe more than others so sorry if i contradict what i said in other posts.

    heh i know what that's like.

     

    I'd say the same thing.

    I have no one belief, just a mixture of many. I have pretty much no idea what is going to happen. I don't really fear death, but that could change when I am on it's doorstep. :P Some things have lead me to believe that there is more after death though. Possibly eternal bliss, maybe reincarnation, maybe in some alternate universe I'll live on, who knows. But, if worst comes to worst, you can still rely on what Undergrounder said, leaving behind your genes, morals and spirit. And I have always liked the idea that when I die, the nutrients and energy from my body will go back into the earth. If there's nothing after death, then I will be dead, so it won't really matter anyway.

    I recently went on a Uni medical lab tour for an Anatomy course I was studying. We were shown a variety of whole and disected bodies/parts. The bodies that were whole had a really calming peaceful expression. Whenever I think about death, I feel a weird sense of peace. That leads me to believe that death won't be a bad or traumatic thing (unless I get hit by a car or something).

  10. I went for a walk today and came across what I believed to be a Stinkhorn. It didn't have the black in the centre like the one above, but was the same vivid red, star-shaped looking fungi. I immediately thought of this thread and how ThunderIdeal commented on how much they stink. I thought I should give it a sniff, but to my confusion, there was no stink. There were a lot of bugs around it to suggest that it should stink, but nothing....

    Do they only give off their stench as certain times of day? A certain period of their life cycle? Do all Stinkhorns stink?

    Thanks

    Stink :P


  11. Getting back to the initial question......

    I voted no and run and hide.

    I don't think that I would physically or mentally be able to kill someone, and as MORG said

    As far as I can see, if you're aiding someone to fight you're still fighting. So I may as well fight.
    I don't think I would be knowingly able to support it either. So I would ideally run and hide in some remote part of the world where things would not effect me. That's only a theoretical response though. I don't think I would be able to survive on my own, let alone with a family, with the small amount of survival knowledge that I have. I still think I would rather die this way than in a war.
    I would rather die for something than live for nothing.

    I agree with half of what you are saying baphomet. I believe that dying for a cause that you strongly believe in is a noble act. But when it comes to killing for a cause, it's a whole different ball game. And I totally agree with shruman on this. The "psychological turmoil" would be far too much for me to handle. Then the suffering of the soldier/s that you killed, and his family all come into play. So it gets way too complicated. I'd just rather disappear from it all.

  12. Ace, that's pretty much what my thoughts were

    They are all cuttings from the same plant. Its an "Eileen" apparently.

    The first and third do look a lot like a standard Echinopsis/Trichocereus Bridgesii. But the second one is an interesting variant. It's definitely not despined. That's the main trunk growth from this year. It was the only section to lose it's spines. Hopefully it continues to grow that way. ;) Very similar looking to a Scopulicola that I have.

    Is that sort of variation common in "Eileen"?

    Thanks

  13. Hey,

    I just wanted an ID on these 3 cuttings. I have an idea of what they are, just wanted a second opinion to make sure. There seems to be a fair amount of variation, even within each cutting.

    This is the first one

  14. Some more metal news -

    Australian progressive metal band, Alchemist, have been anounced as the national support for Meshuggah's tour in October. I haven't heard much of them, but there seemed to be a few people on here that had an interest.

  15. Hey (Dunno who this should be addressed to)

    This may be a stupid question, just wanted to check if it was a typo or just me being dumb.

    In the "You have a new personal message" emails, it says

    "Regards,

    The The Corroboree team."

    Just wondering why there are two "The"s?

    I checked some old emails from a few months ago and they were the same.

    Thanks

  16. Throat singing rocks! I saw a documentary a few years ago with tibetan monks doing it, except they seem to focus moreso on the lower notes. I've been practicing on and off for the last 2 years or so. The higher notes are really hard for me to reach though. I just stick to the bassy tones.

    Stink


  17. Yer but that sucks, the point of a metal gig is to get a skin full and smash yourself into large metalheads name Yorgan. It ain't metal if your not bleeding from the face and/or have your shirt ripped off. You can't do that if your in an under 18's gig drinking poweraide and swaying with the 16 y/o goth/emo fucks.

    Gen

    Haha, remind me to stay away from you at any metal concerts. :wink:

    I personally don't get into the whole "smashing myself into large metalheads" thing. I purposely steer clear of that actually :P

    I'd much rather just chill and appreciate the music and the show. Then leave with a feeling of contentment.

    Stink


  18. The lead singer looks like a pedo

    Haha. I like your description Gen

    I have only heard a couple of Alchemist songs, but they didn't leave a lasting impact.

    As for the new Slipknot album. Has anyone heard the new single? and any opinions?

    I don't personally like it much. But each to their own.

    Stink?


  19. Haha, Nile is the only one that other people have mentioned as being good.

    I like a bit of Coal Chamber too. Not a massive fan of Devil Driver, but they have some good work.

    Karnivool is one band that I am just starting to get into actually. I have only heard a bit, but seems promising. Their heavier songs are really cool but the softer stuff is "not so much."

    Stink?
