I really hate the term Audiophile because of the baggage it carries. Unfortunately people seem to label anyone who doesn't listen to a boombox at home as one.

@whmr: The very fact that you contradicted me means you're engaging in debate. You can't argue with somebody, then say you're not trying to argue.

@Parge_Lenis: Basically, she was like "don't fold the book, you'll break the spine." And then she showed me a damaged book.

@Lincolnsbeard33: Better question: why didn't Obi-Wan just smash him and his little droid friends with his mind then walk away?

@Lincolnsbeard33: Lucas is a egomanical hack. I just remembered something about it from a book I read once. But kudos on winning this...argument?

@Lincolnsbeard33: No heat is lost to the air. When it's cutting through something, energy is discharged, but they're 100% efficient otherwise.

@TwistedChimp: I wonder if white guilt yields as much power as post-colonial guilt? We've got plenty of that...

@cjtyler72: Peace through superior firepower?

@TwistedChimp: Hey, you try to power a 103" Plasma TV by running on a hamster wheel! We need that power!

LG has always been good at coming up with creative, edgy designs for their products. But in this case, I think they borrowed a few things...

@Parge_Lenis: You don't want to know.

@cjtyler72: I agree with much of what you said.

@whmr: The Middle East is not one country.

@Arken: So you'd get equal enjoyment out of Citizen Kane if the audio was warbling and distorted, and the picture fuzzy?

@ccbweb: Depends on your definition of exotic.
