    Check the date of the thread - the post you replied to is from 2009 :P.

    Safe tanning?

    Short answer, no. Unless you want to risk looking like a carrot.

    So what are you guys playing at the moment?

    Just thoroughly finised Halo 4, finally got around to finishing Deus Ex: Human Revolution, now moving on to Borderlands 2. Can't wait for The Last Of Us.

    Newbie - Pointers for a good story

    On the contrary, I think it can make a story. A massively different character can create tension, joy, conflict, cool detachment or whatever you like. They could be an unlikely friend, a foe, a simple ally, someone who the main character doesn't like/trust but must stick with to get a job done...

    What type of car to get?

    More capable of towing though - but that may be irrelevant.

    Newbie - Pointers for a good story

    On the vein of characters: Each character must have a different personality. I know LHS covered this briefly, but too many times I've read a story and each character has sounded like a different version of the same person. Try and construct your characters away from your story then...

    UTS Crane Fire/Collapse

    Good to see that those "Evacuation Proceedure" flyers they put up around every school actually serve a purpose. If that happened at my old uni, we'd all die. Though, imagine what it would have sounded like coming down on top of the building. Would have been like the world was ending from...

    What type of car to get?

    Agree with maintenance costs, and if you crashed your $12k car, not a good feeling. Get something you can beat up and not worry about. Your first car usually cops a bit of a beating. Falcodore (Falcon/Commodore) wagons are cheap and reasonably reliable - plus very cheap to repair/maintain.

    assistance for a laptop noob

    Note: You can bootcamp/dual-boot Windows on Mac. So yes, you can play games and it doesn't do too bad. But then again, they aren't often designed for games, more work (I find). Plus, you say you're a Laptop noob but don't like MacBooks? Have you ever properly used one? Tip: Anything that...

    why do my hands keep shaking?

    Shaking muscles (like when doing the situp motion) usually means overuse or weakness. Have you ever done any boxing or similar? The force of many punches can cause tremors. But yes, go to your GP.

    what is your dream car?

    There was a black LWB Combi getting around Byron Bay for a while. He'd managed to chuck a Porche boxer engine in the thing and lowered it on professional racing springs.

    what is your dream car?

    Aston Martin (I don't really mind which one, DBS, V8 or V12 vantage etc. - they're all so pretty). Audi R8 4.2 FSI Quattro. Lexus LFA. Muscle! Mustang GT500 Modern or Vintage (67' Eleanor or stock, they both rock). 2013 Corvette C6 ZR1 (Gotta have an Aussie in there) Falcon GT (Would...

    Non-fiction vs. Fiction

    I've actually heard that some people dislike the 'escapism' that exists in fiction, yet they'll use other means to escape reality and not question that. Confuses me.

    Non-fiction vs. Fiction

    Then Sylvester has the attitude I'm curious about.

    Non-fiction vs. Fiction

    Disliked fiction or reading in general? :P I dunno... Am I?

    Unemployment reasons???

    Sorry, but what exactly is your question? Or were you intending to ask a question at all?

    Non-fiction vs. Fiction

    Just an observation. I read both, so meh. Added a sentence to the OP anyway (re: fiction readers). Edit: Space Demons?! I forgot about that book! I just nostalgia'd all over the floor...
