I just got fucked up by a Mexican that doesn't know the difference between a mens and womens bathroom in Spanish, and a small underaged white brat whose voice still cracks.

The only thing that could have been more embarassing would be a voorhese + Ray chun wombo combo

yea, everyone at NJIT is a noob and no one has a CRT tv :( all this HD hype is stupid...

So onto my question...does anyone know if there is a way to play on a computer monitor or something where there isn't lag? I'm pretty sure there's a way with a TV tuner card, but I heard it lags like hell :(

or, skylar do you still have that portable gamecube screen? if you somehow can get it to me, i can somehow give you moneyz for it :) it would be cheaper than buying a **** TV lol

Craigslist is good stuff. I got my gently used, $600-800 guitar (different stores/sites, different prices) for $250 with that..


Also, Purdue peeps, anyone have any info on the Behavioral Neuroscience major? The academic counselor mentioned Purdue science is hard and stuff, but I can't see it being too bad, I don't have to take hardcore science, I might not even have to take 300 level classes if I don't want to.

Is college MUCH harder than high school any way? About how much homework do you do a day?

I think college is easier then high school, but that is probably because I didn't put really any effort into high school. I had like a 3.3 in high school. In college I started of with like a 3.0 because I was bad at math, but now I average a 3.7-3.8 GPA per semester. Also, the course work is much more interesting so I tend to put more effort into it. No major is going to be simple, but I am pretty sure you could handle the Behavioral Neuroscience. Gathering from your posts and the times I met you, you seem definitely capable of pursing such a major. Time per a day spent on HW varies quite a bit for me. Mostly because CIT likes to pile everything on you at the end. So some days I spend like an hour or 2 on hw and other days I'll spend like 10 hours working on a project lol. I don't see that being the case for a Behavioral Neuroscience major because I am assuming that you don't have programing projects that can take along time to do. It will most likely be spread out evenly. But I am rambling, you'll be fine if you do Behavioral Neuroscience. If not you can always change majors.

Thanks a lot for the reply. Two hours wouldn't be too bad in the least. I'm really looking forward to learning more about the things I care about. I'm also told college gets more into theoretical stuff, I really dislike the "random details from the chapters you just read" quizzes you get in high school. Thanks again.

Check the goodwill stores in your area. There's almost always a CRT tv for like 10 bucks.

oh yea goodwill LOL. forgot about that amazing store where all college kids get their furniture and appliances. DUH.

Also, I checked on craigslist, but there are very few places in NEWARK that I'm willing to visit a random person's house LOL

But yea, thanks for the tips. I'll check out the options

Both little screens are in Memphis, sadly. I'm not 100 percent either works, to boot.
They were insidiously expensive last I saw of them ... so buying your own would be silly.
See if Andrew will sell you one of his random little crt's or something.

Also, the Brawl hybrid looks interesting. If it turns out like they're hyping I'll play.

Sorry for never coming anymore, I'm busy with band, and robotics taking up every Saturday... I should be able to come back sometime between March and April/May...

OFF NOTE: looks like i'll be attending Purdue next year (West Lafayette Campus of course). I signed up for Earhart, so... hopefully one of you guys will be close enough so i can practice more and get better at this ridiculous game.

The shipping would be more than the cost of a tv at goodwill xD



Hiroshi that's awesome!

from what i understand its the exact same mechanics as melee with brawl graphics, doesn't seem that exciting to me

IF it ends up being just like Melee (although I doubt it will), I actually think it would be pretty awesome.

all u foonz better come to ssbo!! i know carl and brain aren't going, and i think kirkq is a lost cause haha...

Wait, why's Brain not coming? I didn't hear anything from that tob saying that he wasn't going to show up. Brain, explain yourself! You better at least be hanging out during the weekend.

Also, ya, Faith, from what I can gather, you should be just fine in that major.
