To say anything over this is a super profit is an absolute joke. Mining companies take big risks to find and mine a good resource they spend many years on development (many fail) and have to borrow hundreds of millions sometimes billions of dollars to get these projects running. To imply that they have the same risk rating as government bonds is just unbelievably stupid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mining companies already pay over 30% tax, this increase effectively taxes them at 57%. Thanks for investing billions of dollars and helping us avoid a recession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not only bad for anyone with super, mining stocks, or jobs in the mining industry this is bad for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foreign investors will be taking their large amounts of money out of Australia, not just out of the mining industry.

I needed to pee so badly by the end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being a standard disaster movie we have a bunch of near misses, In some movies like Dante's Peak we get a decent dose of it but not too much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this movie it's just non stop. The world is colapsing but they can drive and fly through anything missing every bit of debris, the volcano even waits for them. We get at least 20min of near miss footage. I've never seen so many near misses in any movie, Indiana Jones doesn't even come close to this, it's literally non stop near misses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As if all the near misses werent bs enough we also get one of the biggest bullshit things in movie history. They are flying a jumbo jet (yes..) and need to make a fuel stop in hawaii, but unlucky for them hawaii is no more, it's just molten lava and random good stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are traveling to China but dont have enough fuel, so what happens?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They run out of fuel but lucky enough the earth has moved 2500km or some crap like that and voila they are in China making an emergency landing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Almost as unbelievable is when they land they find some people in a truck traveling to the same place as them and it's not far away!! It's freaking China , it's massive, it's not the size of tassie!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So our main characters make their way to and end up on these arcs. The governments manage to build like 8 of these massive arcs in china without anyone knowing in 2 years!! these are massive structures that can handle the force of huge tidal waves, would probably require at least 100,000 workers probably more, maybe a million. None of them are going to tell anyone or post youtube videos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So our heros manage to get on the arc with a bunch of other people, after a lot of drama...And get this all is well again in 30 days as africa has risen up like 2000m above sea level.. The earth has stabilised itself after a massive disaster(the crust becoming super hot) in a month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This movie also has the standard black president who desides to die with the massesand a whole heap of characters whose only purpose is to make calls to family, death calls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think I'm done my head is going to explode.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1225657791121291085-5979904489288098197?l=cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/feeds/5979904489288098197/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1225657791121291085&amp;postID=5979904489288098197' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/5979904489288098197'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/5979904489288098197'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/2009/11/2012-worst-disaster-movie-ever.html' title='2012 worst disaster movie ever'/><author><name>Lewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08465803309390930826</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225657791121291085.post-5167330852735798324</id><published>2009-10-13T21:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-13T21:28:55.677-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='zombieland imdb hollywood'/><title type='text'>F You imdb  Zombieland</title><content type='html'>Been a while since I had something to bitch about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I decided to download and watch Zombieland after all the good reviews on imdb.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know they are usually overinflated for any new movie thats out, but generally if you look through about 20 reviews you know if its shit by reading the very low rated reviews.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did not find any low reviews so I went ahead and watched it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What the hell is wrong with people! Is genY so braindead that they have to rate everything as awesome when it's complete shit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This movie starts off with some good potential with our main character being a dorky weiner who plays WoW. He then meets up with Woody Harrelson who plays his standard dumb redneck role.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It rapidly declines when Harrelson wants to find a twinkie (obvious sponsors of the movie) and they find a couple of teen girls who con them twice, but end up going along with them to some funpark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the way we get a terrible cameo by Bill Murray in zombie makeup. He acts like a zombie to fit in!! wtf thats just stupid. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because he cant be in the rest of the movie he tries to scare our weiner hero and gets shot and i assume dies cos thats when i stopped watching it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This movie is your standard pile of shit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fuck you hollywood, I'm tired of your shit.

I find when there are 3 people they allow the 3rd person to have input but as the group gets larger they just fight for attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Early in the night with 3 introverts vs 1 dom and 1 non dom extroverts the introverts would get a decent amount of chat in, this is because you get conversations splitting up instead of group discussions, which is good!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This didnt last as there was no stimulus and the introverts gave up, I tried my best turning the tv on but there was nothing interesting on only the hulk, which sucks (damn you foxteless bitches).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I find if there is a stimulus for the introverts then they will keep conversing in smallish groups but last night there was none and the dominating extrovert controlled the conversation after a couple of hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately that meant a conversation about hot guys and a bombardment of personal questions as this dominating extrovert had free reign for most of the night (gave me the shits).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the future I'll have to be more prepared or have the balls to leave earlier.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1225657791121291085-6982606064011427494?l=cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/feeds/6982606064011427494/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1225657791121291085&amp;postID=6982606064011427494' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/6982606064011427494'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/6982606064011427494'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/2009/03/man-i-hate-dominant-extroverts-in.html' title='man i hate dominant extroverts in groups'/><author><name>Lewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08465803309390930826</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225657791121291085.post-1292125023224049917</id><published>2008-12-28T03:29:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-28T03:33:47.408-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Day the Earth Stood Still</title><content type='html'>So i just got back from watching another crap movie, The day the earth stood still.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It started off ok, standard aliens invading + random sci-fi stuff. Then it became a bit too "War of the Worlds". The shit one with tom cruise as a stupid single dad with an annoying daughter and a hero son.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this movie we get a white chick and for some reason she has a black kid, well it's not really her kid. The kids mum died (unknown) and then Dad hooks up with the white chick and then he dies. You'll never guess how!! The iraq war!! To make things worse the kid is will smith's son.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I am watching an end of the world movie I DO NOT care about kids, I don't give a shit about who their real mum is I don't care who his Dad was and I don't want to hear him. There are more important issues here! We are all going to die!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why the hell do they have to add these crappy subplots.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the basic story is Keanu Reeves is just some random dude in the ice (80 years or so ago) who finds this big orb, he touches it and from that the aliens get his DNA. They come back in this big orb that is heading towards earth (america) and the yanks assemble a bunch of scientists to workout what to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The orb lands, an alien thing comes out, an idiot shoots it, out pops keanu reeves he also has a big toy robot thing. The rest is pretty uninteresting, the aliens came to save planet earth from us cos we are destructive, they have a bunch of these big orbs that attract animals to them (noah's arc).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway the stupid american's do their best to kill Keanu Reeves and his big toy robot cos Aliens who have mastered space travel aren't likely to handle gun fire or missiles. The stupid black kid and the white woman have a cry at the dead dad's grave and Keanu decides not to kill us all off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's pretty much it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Annoying things about this movie&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a scene where the kid is playing WOW on his laptop.&lt;br /&gt;There is a random arab scientist who introduces himself to the white chick.. umm why? token arab is the new token black &lt;br /&gt;Keanu meets this old asian guy who is an alien that has lived as a human for 70 years, guess where they meet???

(Considering I already have my body opponent bag (bob), my weight set, super bench, rower and exercise bike.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What more does one need?.. entertainment!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Firstly I hate Nintendo, Sega Master System kicked it's arse and so did Playstation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Wii is very much a standard nintendo console, a nancy boy gaming system aimed at preteens, teens and chicks. I wouldn't be buying too many of the games.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well Wii Sports that comes with all Wii consoles is good for fitness and great for when degenerates come over and want to be entertained. Only problem is you have to cough up $100 for another left and right hand controller.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wii Fit is the only reason I bought one and I have to say Wii Fit is freaking awesome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The exercises are pretty good, (you aren't going to get as good a workout as you would at the gym or doing any other random exercise besides walking). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However it does allow you to do multiple exercise types. Balance, Muscle building, flexibilty/yoga and aerobics. (You aren't going to cover all these areas doing a regular workout and if you do congrats for having the motivation to plan it.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The real value in the Wii Fit is the entertainment value. Most of the games are fun and even though a lot of them don't have much depth there are enough of them to keep you interested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hopefully there will be some other decent fitness games coming out soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;exercise = boredom&lt;br /&gt;entertainment = fatness&lt;br /&gt;exercise + entertainment = buffness&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

This is going to screw up my whole day, oh well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since I have been to the end of the internet and back and I've basically watched everything foxtel can throw at me what else is there to do but blog?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been a while which is generally bad. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had the realisation during my I can't get back to sleep phase. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are two kinds of me, 1. Is a needy emo bitch who needs attention and lets people walk all over him and 2. An arrogant all knowing and all powerful god who is in awe of his own awesomeness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately No1 has been dominant for maybe 9 months now and really dominant over the last few weeks, I realise he comes out when things aren't going too well. When my stocks are getting raped, when poker is going badly and when people are frustrating me. It is obviously some kind of fear based mechanism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No2 is the opposite, when things are going well I feel I have control over my life and can express my opinions without giving a shit. I like this guy way better and right now it is good to have him back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what has been happening in my life? Well I deleted facebook and myspace. I thought it's about time. I never got into facebook and myspace is just full of fake boring people. I've basically just been focusing on poker and watching about 12 hours a day of tv (online poker is mine numbingly boring that i need a distraction). I'm finally getting back into the poker groove after a very long time so soon I'll be making big bucks again. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything else is going well, my stocks are up and the business is doing well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Handed out about 9000 flyers for our mother's day promotion which was a pain, I wont be doing that again. But at least we are having a big month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm also keeping my place clean!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is about all, I think it is time to go back to bed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good Night Internet&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1225657791121291085-7186769902923332903?l=cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/feeds/7186769902923332903/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1225657791121291085&amp;postID=7186769902923332903' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/7186769902923332903'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/7186769902923332903'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/2008/05/its-5am-and-i-cant-sleep.html' title='It&apos;s 5am and I can&apos;t sleep'/><author><name>Lewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08465803309390930826</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225657791121291085.post-5683057023930071079</id><published>2008-04-12T01:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-12T01:39:05.044-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Apartment Gardening Part 2</title><content type='html'>So it's been 2 months since my first update on my garden and I've been lazy with blogging (lazy in general).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything is growing well, one of my beetroots is nearly ready and I have about 30 little tomatoes growing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surprisingly it hasn't taken much effort.

Will usually be forgiven if I take an afternoon nap the following day. (as long as it is significant enough to make up the difference plus interest)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My body doesn’t like to get up before 9am especially when it is cold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It likes breakfast within 30min of getting up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meals every 3 hours, sometimes it can go for 4 hours but only if there is limited brain use during that time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At least 2 healthy meals a day. It wont tolerate too much junk food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Limited exposure to dust.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not happy with season changes eg very hot for weeks then a really cold day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If my body is not happy then I will get hay fever symptoms, continual abuse will result in 1 day or more of this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seems my body is as fussy as I am. It is kind of annoying but I guess it is good to be punished for bad behaviour.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately I frequently forget my body rules. I was a bit sick the last few days from getting 5 hours sleep and no afternoon nap :( (had to do comp work at the studio).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ve also haven’t been eating enough food or good food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I’m trying to keep my body happy with more fruit, vegies, herbs and vitamin tablets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hopefully it’ll stop punishing me.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1225657791121291085-3317004706096794333?l=cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/feeds/3317004706096794333/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1225657791121291085&amp;postID=3317004706096794333' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/3317004706096794333'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/3317004706096794333'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/2008/03/my-body-and-i.html' title='My Body and I'/><author><name>Lewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08465803309390930826</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225657791121291085.post-6035785131539635613</id><published>2008-03-22T05:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-22T05:57:03.686-07:00</updated><title type='text'>3 great movies/docos</title><content type='html'>Besides watching Jerry Springer, wrestling and bad movies, occasionally I come across a few really good things to watch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Surprisingly I have watched 3 very good movie/docos in the last month. (Anyone who knows me knows that I’m extremely fussy and anal so I rarely say something is good)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1st one is "The Man From Earth" pretty much a dialogue only movie. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bunch of teachers find out their buddy is leaving, they confront him and he tells them he is 14000 years old. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This movie was so good I watched it again the next day. No special effects or super hot people just a damn good story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Zeitgeist the Movie" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part 1 tells us what atheists already know, that religion is a load of bs. Mostly breaking down the bible and telling us where the stories come from. (helpful for debates with religious nuts)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part 2 is about 9/11 being an inside job and the reasons why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Part 3 is how a bunch of rich bankers control the world and cause war to gain money (increasing America’s debt so they pay more interest on loans). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main point of this documentary is for people to stop being stupid douche bags who blindly follow mass media. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last good Documentary I saw a while ago was "Who Killed the Electric Car".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to legislation in California car companies had to build a certain number of zero emission cars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These electric cars worked well but because car companies/oil companies make more money on regular cars they didn’t promote them and destroyed them all when the laws were changed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sad thing is that we could all be driving electric cars now especially with battery technology. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The electric cars were built in 96 so you can imagine how much longer the cars would run for now. Probably 4+ hours of driving which would be good for 99.9% of the population and a hybrid fuel system to keep everyone happy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The problem is big business/people in charge use the media to manipulate the public and send out scare campaigns, then promote future technology that is basically unworkable and far away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s just another use of strategic manipulation. All very easy when the general public mostly cares about what Britney/(insert dumb celebrity) is doing and how they are going to waste their next pay cheque.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suggest anyone with a brain watches all 3 of these.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1225657791121291085-6035785131539635613?l=cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/feeds/6035785131539635613/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1225657791121291085&amp;postID=6035785131539635613' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/6035785131539635613'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/6035785131539635613'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/2008/03/3-great-moviesdocos.html' title='3 great movies/docos'/><author><name>Lewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08465803309390930826</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225657791121291085.post-3616232480401489060</id><published>2008-03-16T18:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-22T05:58:35.269-07:00</updated><title type='text'>What I learnt from watching 10000BC</title><content type='html'>Ugly people are evil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Really good looking people have great ethics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They had really good dentists back then.

Arnie stood out because of how big he is and how he talks. The liquid metal terminator stood out because of his expressions(he could act) and the cop uniform, basically he was scary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A hot looking 16 year old girl does not stand out. She basically looks like a hot 16 year old girl so why would anyone think she is a terminator? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bad terminators are just random semi-buff bad guys who cant act and with the odd bit of silver spray paint on them. They dont stand out at all and aren't scary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no scary build up, it's just oh look there is a bad guy terminator I guess we should shoot at it and make our escape. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What the hell happened to Sarah Connor? She went from looking like a psychotic junkie to some trophy wife, her legs are flawless. It doesn't look like she has had a rough day in her life. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/1154/sarah20connorzn8.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px;" src="http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/1154/sarah20connorzn8.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put the terminator chick and Sarah Connor together and you've basically got the gilmore girls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even John Connor the tough little rebel in T2 now looks like some metro nancy boy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another thing that pissed me off is that these people are on the run yet they can keep up with the latest fashion trends and keep themselves well groomed?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If they made it with realistic characters and a semi decent believable storyline (not time travelling from 1999 to 2007 so they can have a teen main character) then people might watch it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looks like John Connor will probably populate the future of mankind with cyborbs after him and the hot terminator chick inevitably get it on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wonder how those humanoid robots are coming along anyway?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1225657791121291085-5173740522595464635?l=cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/feeds/5173740522595464635/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1225657791121291085&amp;postID=5173740522595464635' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/5173740522595464635'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1225657791121291085/posts/default/5173740522595464635'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cynicismandstuff.blogspot.com/2008/02/sarah-connor-chronicles.html' title='The Sarah Connor Chronicles'/><author><name>Lewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08465803309390930826</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1225657791121291085.post-2645796374867705621</id><published>2008-02-11T20:02:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-11T20:17:22.110-08:00</updated><title type='text'>My new roomie!!
