Update on the Bioshock movie...



I am Ozzdog12 and I am here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to a film adaption of Bioshock?

'No,' says the man in Hollywood 'its not rated R.'

'No,' says the man in 2k Games, 'it doesn't follow the original story.'

'No,' says the man in Universal 'it costs to much to make.'

I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose...

Toy Story 3

For the full,actual story go Bioshock Movie Update

The best thing the South has produced...

The South(Alabama, Arkansas, Tennessee,Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Mississippi, and West Virgina) is not my favorite place to say the least, lets get that clear. After living here the majority of my life, everyday I find a reason to like it even less, but that's besides the point. There is at least 1 awesomely awesome thing the South gives us and here it is.....

Sweet Tea


 Sweet Tea is a glorious nectar descended from the God's of Holy beverages.

 Sweet Tea isn't just a beverage, its a way of life. It such a huge part of the Southern culture that in places outside the South, store bought bottles of tea have a 'Southern-Style' label.
 When it comes to Sweet Tea, the South don't play around. In 2003, Georgia State Representative, John Noel, and four co-sponsors introduced House Bill-819, proposing to require all Georgia restaurants that serve tea to serve sweet tea and only sweet tea. Representative John Noel, one of the sponsors, is said to have acknowledged that the bill was an attempt to bring humor to the Legislature, but wouldn't mind if it became law. It basically said you were to receive a misdemeanor if your did an un-justice act and served sweet tea not acceptable enough to give your body a diabetic coma. Now it was just an April Fool's joke, but you can see my point. Sweet Tea is a serious beverage and is nothing to play around with. People in the South drink Sweet Tea like the Irish drink beer.
  For those curious, the simplest way to brew your own version of 'True' Sweet Tea is brew some tea and pour in lots of sugar and by 'lots', I mean enough to play Russian Roulette with diabetes

You can't pump your own gas in Oregon or New Jersey....

Yes, If you live in New Jersey or Oregon you are not allowed to pump your own gas at a gas station.
  According to research,the brilliant minds of the New Jersey state legislature decided in 1949 that ..."because of the fire hazards directly associated with dispensing fuel, it is in the public interest that gasoline station operators have the control needed over that activity to ensure compliance with appropriate safety procedures.”
Uh....ok....so when your apply for a job at a gas station do have a certificate that says your awesome and you have the ability to pump gas...professionally.

  Now for your curious little noggin, passed in 1951, Oregon came up with this dandy... “any person other than the owner, operator or employee (of a dispensary where class 1 flammable liquids are dispensed at retail)” from using “pump, hose, pipe or other device for dispensing the liquids into the fuel tank of a motor vehicle or other retail container.” Violating this law would get yourself slapped with a whopping $500 fine.
...$500 fine??? Give me a break.
I've shook my brain to find something similar between the two states.....Italians? Ducks?

I guess in theory its 'safer' to have someone pump your gas due to the increasingly large epidemic of idiots that plague the world today, but it just boggles my mind. I had a lady tell me on a plane ride that Oregon is like super environmental friendly....ok but what does that have to do with somebody else pumping gas? your still driving the car that pollutes the environment..Oh and get this, if your a tourist traveling through these fine states, you have to obey these laws as well...cause they said so..
...My theory.....somebody went insane and made a flamethrower out of a gas pump and just went on a rampage due to the fly that kept buzzing in his ear.
 This guy doesn't live in Oregon or New Jersey..or is he pumping the other fine gentleman's gas for him?
This is Today's Bacon and Eggs
