I hate Starbucks. I think Starbucks customers are idiots. So I like to constantly go into Starbucks and talk to anyone who will listen about my preferred store, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. Then I insult them and get into arguments with them. Calling them sheep and silent victims of scammers are two ways I like to get into it with these pathetic customers.

I guess I could just stay at Coffee Bean and enjoy myself, but I don't mind wasting my time if it will make others feel bad. I also take great pleasure in attaching myself to something outside myself in an effort to appear superior.

I'm just funny that way.


Coffe Bean and Tea Leaf is run by idiots who don't know the difference between a coffee bean and a kidney stone. Their customers are a bunch of lemmings who don't mind that they are being ripped off by those con artists. I've even heard that people there use their credit cards to buy coffee. Nice security, morans.

You have Coffee Bean confused with SL.

LOL, this picture is so true I die laughing. Yes, lets all go to Wow so we can stand around and be awed by the never changing landscape, and build leather boots from now until forever, amen! :p

LOL! I totally know what you mean by the unchanging landscape.... Or at least the shadows.... STATIC SHADOWS..... WTF!?!? No matter what time of day, they stay the same. I seriously thought my sun froze in the sky because of it too....

I think Blizzard and LL could both take pointers. I think Blizzard could greatly update their environment engine and LL may be able to take some ideas from what Blizzard is doing in certain areas. I play both WoW and SL. WoW for it's somewhat fantasy feel and SL for it's creative side.

It'df be quite nice though if SL didn't stream everything or have a better caching system so things wouldn't lag like they do.... ugh (Shutters at the thought of the IBM place)... so... much... stuff.... .... even more .... LAG!

But yeah, I like both games equally.

I don't know what CoV/G is. I DO know Age of Conan and do know for a fact that the environment settings there are quite good indeed.

I also think that LL and Blizzard could update their avi graphics as well.

I play both. They both have their drawbacks and they both could learn from each other.

IF LL was even a billionth as together as Blizzard is, it would be a billionth times more fiunctional.


..and WoW STILL would be garbage.

Maybe you should petition ActiBlizzendi for a biped Sheep race so you can feel good about yourself again. :-/

There are several possibilities for the Antichris. The OP is one of them. The school owner in Bear and Nina are two others, but Nina hasn't been around much. Sling and 2K are outside possibilities. And then there is BRENDA........dum dum dum!!!!!!!! But then really Brenda and I are both alts of Colette. I wonder where Colette has been recently. She was one of my favorite residents.
I miss Colette.

No no I'm sure everyone at Starbucks will see the light soon and be very grateful.

I think that would be a bit more accurate if you went into Starbucks and told everyone how brilliant, oh, Radio Shack was. Why are you wasting your time here when you could be in Radio Shack? You say you want coffee? Radio Shack has three thousand individual types of cable tie! Sheep, you're all sheep.

Then again, if someone came into Starbucks touting a competetor's coffee shop, day after day after day, they'd get tossed out.

Why hasn't that happened yet?

Hmm.. oh, CoH/CoV has lots of bugs, but I know they'll get squashed eventually. What I love about CoH/CoV is the costume creation! NO farking 'snap on' armor. But again, CoH/CoV content is entirely created by NCsoft and Cryptic, with the vast majority of it stored on your computer.

The other thing I love about COH/COV is the teaming system works so well, you can login anytime just put up your "wanting to join a team flag" and you will get an invite, and it encourages teaming for missions where WoW seems to be setup to play alone a bit more.

Hmmm...Someone who we all find ourselves repeatedly defending SL to... Someone who is actually makes SL seem less frustrating...

And if you don't want to team, simply set up the "Do Not Accept Team Invites," and solo. It's the whole choice thing that I love about CoH/V. I mean, PvP is completely optional and no separate servers for it. Just separate city zones or if you want to just bout a friend, head for the arena or Pocket D. Also the zones where both heroes and villains can work together is a nice touch.

Plus, global chat.. oh, that is great when it's working. Talk to your friends no matter what server they're on. And I did hear tale that they are leaning towards a Voice setup for the game too.

Absolutely! I mean just think - if LL was just a little more like Blizzard, there might even be a news article or two about pedophiles getting arrested for using Second Life to meet kids.

See, this is what I wished UO would finally pick up on. They have several teaming systems, but the chat aspect is horrible. Everything is overhead text, and with an isometric view it's just not great in all situations. And, no voice support.

Other side of the coin, i'll never use voice with SL. Go figure. :)
