Very excited about The Hobbit. I love both the universe that Tolkien created and Jackson's interpretation of it on film. Can't wait for the first one this December, although I'm still on the fence about the whole trilogy thing...
And Stewart's impressions are always either great or so bad that they're great.
BTW are Australians going to be able to watch the film in 48fps?
He only has the Joe Lieberman one
Tasteless and Artosis are coming to Sydney? Had to be on the weekend I'm moving.
Colbert >>> Stewart
that was pretty apparent during the Writers' strike where the Colbert Report didn't miss a beat.
In what sense? Setting up the hardware and so forth?My crew from Lansmash are handling the stream for the weekend! Pretty big stuff.
Awesome, congrats!Fuck yesssssssssssssssssssss! Got the house we applied for!
Also truth bomb. Stephen Cobert and that other one I don't find funny either. Because fuck US politics.

Shorter Vook: <popular thing> sucks. Also, hipsters suck.Seriously?
Seriously? I haven't missed an episode of Colbert or TDS for years, they're both equally hilarious imo. I love it when they highlight the absurdity of American politics and FOX news, that shit is craaazy.

Hurr, Hurr, Hurr, Hurr Americans are dumb, Fox 'News' is dumb. I haven't heard that one before!

Not popular things, popular thing! As in, it's fairly often that you point out that you don't like a certain popular thing. Not that you don't like any popular thing.
While the Android family might be the most popular set of operating systems, the iPhone is far and away the most popular handset.
Hmmm, yeah, that's not exactly the level of these humour that these shows are operating at.
Anyway...
profoundly embarrassing post
Oh it's just like a circus every time something new is coming out. Game, movie, song, product. The same suspects go on and on about it and things like Twitter and Facebook are filled with it.
This morning it was all the Hobbit. No one could shut the fuck up about it, on and on, oh I don't know if I like it as a trilogy, oh they're just doing it to make money, oh its only a small book how can they make three movies.
That's it, it's done, that their decision, fucking deal with it.

good god you're boring
You sound like a cranky old man.
This is true and I do like it when your blunt about it because it forces me to think. Sometimes you're wrong, but so is everyone.Oh it's just like a circus every time something new is coming out.

Today it's the blood Samsung v Apple thing, ooooh some hot court case which could impact on patents and the meaning life and omg Steve Jobs said something ten years ago and Samsung were told by Google not to copy the iPad and it's all just so exciting!
I agree! It's interesting that Apple's hardline stance which was a direct legacy of Jobs might be the catalyst for the downfall of software patents. Good riddance too.it's all just so exciting!
You're such a hipster.

I wonder if VOOK ever owned a game n watch.
People have opinions? People are interested in the world outside of my bubble? Fuck you. Stop caring about things I can't be bothered understanding. Please focus your conversations onto things I'm interested in. Important things, like console region-locking, games classifications and 3DS hardware upgrades.
Oh yeah quite.
Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture...
You know the old saying, if it walks like a Vook and complains like a Vook, it's probably a Vook.
You guys mad?

Now that I have something to look forward to outside of work, I realise how much work sucks.
Having a relationship during uni would have worked much better, haha.
I'd be a little careful here. It sounds like you're in super-infatuation mode, which is sweet but unsustainable. It sounds kind of trite to say, but try to have other things in your life that remain just as satisfying as they were before, that are enjoyable independently of anyone else. It's absolutely critical. It covers you for the best case scenario (you stay together but the infatuation inevitably weakens) and the worst case scenario (you break up at the peak of your infatuation).

Oh, I definitely have other things to look forward to. But I guess what I mean is that all that stuff is much easier to fit around work. They don't play football during the week, I can listen to podcasts to and from work, I can play video games, I listen to music during work, etc, etc. But I mean, when you're trying to really get to know someone, something as simple as spending the day with them is hard to do, because work gets in the way.
And I say all this as someone who works a standard week. I can't imagine how hard it would be for people who do 50-60 hour weeks to build real relationships with people. No wonder the divorce rate is so high.
You know what good advice is? To tell someone to enjoy themselves because they may never get that chance again.
Fucking do what you like legend. Don't listen to the cynical fuckers.
Have fun for sure, but don't go from I like you to I love you too quickly. Someone is more likely to get hurt. Patience!
Meh, life is about experience. Good and bad.

I actually agree with Vook on pretty much everything he's said this page.
I don't think it's hipsterism, I don't think it's about being cranky, I just think its about being able to see and predict patterns in the conversation enough to already be over it by the time it begun.
See you all in another twenty pages when I post a couple of quick lines before fucking off again!
So with all the frustration with people and sites talking about new things, does this mean Vooks.net is closing?
