  1. In the earlier days drivers were taught the half foot method. Half on the brake and half on the accelerator. This is what they were trying to test. Not sure if that test is there anymore.

     

     

    abe ye kya ch****pa hai :doh: This will cause more accidents than using the whole foot (which is how you are supposed to use the foot- either totally on break or on gas). In fact indecision about what to use in split second often causes the car to ram into things or just stop abruptly causing other vehicles to bump into it from behind.

     

    You got some weird laws there :loco:

    Still dont understand what is wrong with using hand break on a slope when you have to stop-start. Yes it is not good for car but i think the main point here is to not have an accident.

    So, what makes wolverine what he is ? Let us see..

     

    -Freak genetic lottery giving him powers.

    -Shitty childhood; yeah happens to every superhero worth his/her salt.

    -Government sponsored metal skeletons giving him indestructible, always attacked to hands weapons.

    -A bullet to the head because he was ungrateful to the benevolence bestowed upon him in the previous step.

    -Manners from the Kratos school of personality development with Bruce Wayne as guest faulty.

     

     

    Wow what a mystery !! :rolleyes:

    Why cant they just agree that all we want is to see Logan rip some motherf**kers up on the big screen with a decent coherent plot. No one is looking for deep philosphical meanings in a comic book hero movie. We already have Nolan and co. to give enough boredom regarding that.

  3. Messi is the biggest whiner in barca, i was shocked when he said, chelsea didn't deserve to qualify for the final, we played beautiful football, we deserved to win !

     

    well son, you should have scored goals with it then, at least arsenal don't whine line barca, i am losing respect day by day for them, it's like a damn kindergarten over at camp loo

     

    If you will observe barca wants to play any team they can beat, messi once said he would love to play city, arsenal, man utd again but not chelsea

     

    So kid despite having UEFA by your side wont you take the challenge of chelsea instead of being a Jackarse about it

     

     

    haha yeah ! chelsea is the only team that they have not managed to beat over a period of time. We have met 5 times with Barca since the days of Jose and with chelsea leading 3-2 in terms of moving to the next round or finishing higher in the group, and one of the two barca 'wins' was the Ovrebo match so that is that.

  4. Barcelona are very talented but they are the biggest bunch of whiners and cry babies for a team that not long ago was a very dominant force. Hell they were regular sulkers even at Pep's prime 2-3 seasons ago. I dont think any other team that had won so much in a short time of 5 season had ever cried so much over trivial things, things that only they can see and perceive.

     

    Very lame.

     

    Some one tell them and their fans that football is not all about orgasmic passes in contained environments and that defense plays an as important role as hair gel leaking forwards.

  5. I dont know any guy who watched it in 50-60s. I am talking about people in present generation, in 20s-30s who claim it to be the best movie ever ! which it certainly is not. Sure it has got great cinematography, way ahead of its time and in many ways changed the technique used in it for future films, but that is about it. It is boring and bland, like you said.

     

    It is quite similar to Avatar insofar as having huge pre release hype spanning years, big hollywood backing and a big leap in technical aspect AND having bare bones plot, below avg storytelling and uninspiring acting. However Avatar was very entertaining for one watch with great set pieces, fights and explosions, unlike Citizen Kane where it is just an achievement if one does not manage to nod off at lest once while watching it.

     

    Look I am not hating the movie, it is not bad, it is an ok attempt at a biography (made without the permission of the said figure btw) with good tech for its time; what riles me up is the wanton hype and reverence that it has managed to receive, and still does. I have seen most of the movies that are listed in the various Top (insert number) lists by reputed sources and while i may not agree with the rankings, i can see why they were listed, almost all have some stand alone positive quality- Godfather, Casablanca, Swashank Redemption.. etc. Only one that has baffled me is Citizen Kane, a ubiquitous presence near the top on such lists. I just wish some influential entity just up and calls the naked-ness of the emperor here.

  6. It was pretentious then, it is a big bag of pretentious, snob valuator now. Not accusing you Udham, you may have good reasons to like it; but i have had many a conversation with people calming it to be the best in the world and most of them have it a*s backwards, they hear from someone about Citizen Kane's epicness and just slide along to praise it in order to not miss the hype train.

     

    It is like the Ayn Rand of movies, loved by people who seem and claim to be smart but arent really.

     

    Again, am not putting you in that bracket Udham. It just an observation.

  7. Watching season 1 of Psych. Looks promising. Seems like the idea for The Mentalist was derived from this show. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

     

     

    It is an awesome show. I have been watching it since 08 when it first aired on star world here. Dont know if mentalist derived its idea but Psych did come before. Best thing i like about Psych is how carefree the main lead- Shawn, is. Comes with no baggage to any case, open minded and always seeing the lulz in everything. Gus and Lassie perfectly complement his personality with their different traits. Also how the mysteries are unfolded with Shawn not always getting the right answer and getting help from others is something fresh and believable.

     

    oh and Jules :wub:

  8. Try taking them to the local shops and ask for the cushions. :mellow:

     

     

    Local shops have only foams, will take them if, when i go to big a*s malls but am not very hopeful.

     

    If you can find them in USA , the replacements for like 1 or 2 dollars , I can source them for you .

     

    hmm.. usa has all kind of things, they should have this too. I will search online and let you know once when i find any. Thanks !

  9. Sorry for bringing it up here but i cant find any headphone/earphone thread.

     

    I have the following earphone(s)-

     

    PMX_680_set_new.jpg

     

    now they are pretty good in terms of sound and fit, but for some weird reason the maker decided to fit 2 round bands made of rubber at the circumference of the round things that go in the ear as opposed to coating the whole round sound output thing by soft rubber material that cannot be detached. Unfortunately, it has removable rubber bands that cover the parts from where sound comes and without those bands the device is impossible to use because of the hard, sharp plastic underneath the rubber.

     

    I made the mistake of lending it to a couple of my relatives for a few hours now and then and those motherf**kers somehow made them quite loose, so much so that last night the bands just removed themselves and have now been lost. Does anyone knows any place from where i can get cushions for the headphones ? I looked online and all i saw were foam covers that engulfed the whole thing. I need something in rubber that covers the rough part at the perimeter, not necessarily one that covers everything.

     

    thanks.
