I took a survey called "What state do you actually belong in" and got Wyoming for some reason.

Anyone here actually IN Wyoming?

What's in Wyoming?

I Google'd this and ended up finding a bunch of Wyoming jokes... Some of em are pretty funny. http://www.jokes4us.com/miscellaneousjokes/worldjokes/wyomingjokes.html

Q: Why do ducks fly over Wyoming upside down?
A: There's nothing worth craping on!

Q: What's the most popular pick up line in Wyoming?
A: Nice tooth!

Q: What do you call a good looking girl on the University of Wyoming campus?
A: A visitor.

Q: What does the average University of Wyoming student get on his SAT?
A: Drool.

Q: Why don't girls play hide and seek in Wyoming?
A: No one would look for them.

Imgur. Extremely basic crap. xD I wouldn't mind.If you can do a better job then James I'll hug you.
Hmm, well I'm no expert either, but here's my attempt at one of them:



The problem is some of the colours overlap with other characters, and you need to really spend some time with an eraser or whatever to get rid of the unwanted pixels. I use a program called gimp which is free btw. You can also save transparent images with the program and it's good for basic photo touch ups.

I once took an RPG personality survey. I am apparently a trader. :L

Gimp requires a download still, no can do. Otherwise I would have used it and learn how to do signatures and all that. :C

Well that's a big no

Edit

Q: Why do folks from Wyoming go to the movie theater in groups of 18 or more? A: 17 and under are not admitted.

I just looked up more states, and most of the jokes on that site replace the state name but are pretty much the same joke

That website has a bunch of hilarious jokes. I found some great Obama ones. (I don't personally agree with any of these)

"A muslim, a socialist, and a communist walk into a bar. The bartender says hello Mr. President. "
"Q: Why won't Obama release his real birth certificate? A: The ink isn't dry yet."
"Q: How does Obama sleep? A: First he lies on one side, then he lies on the other."
"What kind of doctor do you need to fix Obamacare? A URLologist."

Well except the last one. This seems offtopic, even for the social thread.

I see. Hmm, I can't think of any programs that aren't downloadable that allow users to edit photos, and save them as transparent images atm. Maybe photobucket? Though I haven't used that in a while. Sorry. :/

Power Rangers has the WORST hidden identity thing ever

Usually, super heroes hide their identities so villains can't find out who they are and hurt their loved ones.

BUT in Power Rangers, the villains know the identity of the power rangers, bu they hide it from their loved ones. And the villains DO attack their loved ones, leaving the loved ones not knowing why

If they weren't incompetent, the villains could do some real damage with that kind of advantage

Depending the season, they sometimes do attack their families. Also, keep in mind, in a lot of seasons, it's impossible to actually defeat them unless they're morphed, so capturing their families isn't always useful. Also, MMPR had Rita even kidnap their families. Besides, sometimes their family are bad guys, or they don't know their real identities too. It's not always public knowledge or known to the villains. In other various cases, the heroes' families more or less are nonexistent so it isn't relevant to the storyline.

It's really odd and in a very select few cases, would that idea work.

I also noticed the Thunder Zords are kind of dumb

The feet are obviously not REAL zords, but just feet

Yeah. They were honestly pretty pathetic. Only the Red Dragon Thunderzord and White Tigerzord were halfway decent. The rest practically never fought like the old Zords could at all. They were essentially accessories at best. :/

Power rangers had been so much better before the show was bought by nickelodeon. The old ones had had their quirks, yes, but at least they didn't have horrible jokes every five minutes.

To be perfectly honest, other than a select few dumb puns, I found it a lot more enjoyable when they had both comedy and serious moments. It felt closer to the original version.

That said, some of the jokes are definitely horrific. Samurai is probably the largest offender. Megaforce isn't that bad, though, in that regard. Serrator's sword/cutting/slicing puns, jeez...

Was gonna point that out about the episode with Rita kidnapping the parents and such, but beat me to the punch. Zedd was the best villain though.

As far as what series does the whole secret identity thing the worst, He-Man (well, the cartoon from the early 2000's) is definitely one that comes to mind for me, especially on the episode where Skeletor kidnapped prince Adam. :facepalm:

Out of curiosity, have you seen this before? Yes, it's actually Jason Frank as Tommy/the White Ranger fighting.. you know who (eat your heart out Death Battle).

I'm watching it right now.

White Ranger is the most powerful in existence? Even Wild Force Red is stronger, especially with his power-ups.

Anyway, meh. White Ranger cannot teleport spam. Not cool. Scoprion should've won that one since he fought with his canon powers respectively. I don't remember the fire heel kicks, but that's the only thing he might've pulled out that was a made-up move at best.

Yeah, they tend to exaggerate about some of the characters some during the debates, but I still like the whole thing for what it is.

White Ranger didn't teleport spam like Scorpion did though at least, even if it was prolly still done to show him be able to "keep up" with the ninja specter. Now spamming Saba's projectile like that, I don't remember him doing much (if any) in the actual series. Liked Tommy better as the Green Ranger anyway with the dragon zord flute and all. Anyhoo, kind of agree that Scorpion should've won, but when you got two icons from people's childhoods duking it out like that it's hard for me not to be pleased, regardless of the end result. They base who wins off of some poll apparently, but at least they showed an alternate ending as fanservice for the Scorpion people. As for the fire heels kick, you mean the fiery flip kick or whatever? Thought he had that in Deadly Alliance and Injustice.

There's other cool interesting fan-made battles from the same group of people as well, like Darth Vader vs Gandolf (hilariously worth a watch), Superman vs Thor, Batman vs Deadpool, and Wolverine vs Predator. The only one that didn't sit too well with me (far as who won I guess) was Gambit vs Nightwing.

The thing is, I don't care if White Ranger would've lost badly. I'd rather they tried to be accurate in this case, especially since they're actually bragging about how good they are.

Without the bragging, well, who cares? But when you do that, don't exaggerate their abilities. Either way, yeah, White Ranger fought rather unreasonably. And yeah, Scorpion is that cheap. He is an assassin and a hellspawn. It's not surprising he'd fight dirty anyway. He does in canon too.

To be fair, I'm a huge Power Rangers and Mortal Kombat fan, so that's why this thing bothers me so much. I'm probably taking it too seriously, though. It did look good, no doubt. Excellent effects even.

Never paid much attention to or thought much about the bragging, but I guess you got a point there. To be fair though, what group that does fan-made battles doesn't have some inaccuracies here and there? I think it may be done just to make the fights a little longer and more exciting & entertaining. If like the Goku vs Superman fight had been 100% accurate, Supes would've won a lot sooner and thus it would've been shorter and not as fun to watch... Pretty much agree on the rest though.

I'm a huge fan of both too obviously, yet it didn't bother me (at least that much).. Yeah, you may be taking it a bit too seriously. My only intention when showing it to you was entertainment. D:

It's okay.

I just wanted to look at the inconsistencies. I was more annoyed by Jason David Frank's White Ranger bragging. The battles were cool, although I think if they removed some of the teleport spam, it might've been better. White Ranger has other moves, like his bicycle kick.

I'll admit I was sorta annoyed by Jason Frank's White Ranger bragging too, but then I kinda empathized with him and realized that if I had played a kickass character like Tommy back in the day I probably would've supported & bragged about my character some in a debate for whatever fan-fight too, even as modest as I am... Probably wouldn't have bragged as much as he did, but yeah. :p

Pretty much agree on the rest. Well that, and I think they should've had the Scorpion costume from this fight, as it was better looking IMO. Heh, and yeah, Tommy has had those Liu Kang kind of moments, surprisingly.

As far as the original rangers though, I'm one of the few hipsters that liked Jason a little better, especially as the Gold Ranger.

I honestly way preferred the Green Ranger, even the Black Ranger. I didn't like his White and Red versions myself. He was rather... boring.

And to link this back to Smash, an actual fun roster I made based upon an old Ign Melee beta image had White Ranger on there. Notably? He is not an impossible third party character, just unlikely as hell.(namely because he was on a Nintendo console, would be fun to play as and unique, and did not originate in a Manga/Anime). I did have Fulgore and MetalGreymon, but there's an obvious problem with the "too many third parties from Bandai" situation. I always had Sonic and Knuckles, with a similar issue. But eh, was a fun roster to make. No OC's thankfully.

Power Rangers has the WORST hidden identity thing ever

Usually, super heroes hide their identities so villains can't find out who they are and hurt their loved ones.

BUT in Power Rangers, the villains know the identity of the power rangers, bu they hide it from their loved ones. And the villains DO attack their loved ones, leaving the loved ones not knowing why

If they weren't incompetent, the villains could do some real damage with that kind of advantage
Aparently this new Spiderman didn't get the memo about concealing his identity...
Dude took off his mask for every little thing smh...

As far as the different rangers Tommy has been, I agree. Green and Black for the win.

Seeing characters like Fulgore on a fan-made roster always makes me depressed for what could've been. Huh, so when did you come up with that whole thing?

Well before Melee's official roster appeared. Before "third party" was a thing or a problem. ...Oh, right, I include Perfect Cell too. XD

So yeah, obviously was not possible, well, nowadays. Who bloody knows what Sakurai might've done if he added third parties in Melee specifically? Brawl was the first, and that's when he made that criteria(never mind that that criteria might be outdated).

Didn't Double Dash have a lot of characters? I don't think it's a bad idea; especially since returning characters aren't as often, there might be a double dash mode, and this is a big release. It's better to jump ambitious than to be in MKWii's gigantic shadow
Yeah, DD had a lot of characters but it made more sense for the spike because it was 2 characters to a kart and Mario Kart 64 only had 8 characters and no unlockables. I'm hoping their stats are at least different enough from each other.

There should have been a Purple WaRanger.

I barely even remember much from the Power Rangers other than the Green Ranger turning into the White Ranger. He was the Black and Red Rangers too at one point? How did that work?
