Please stay, guys!
I also miss the old members that are not here anymore, but having you leave also would only make me feel worse

I just had an odd tingling sensation in my nether-regions.
Thanks for that.

This is a question for Xnguela: How exactly do you pronounce Xnguela?

I will stay. I will not post as much as I used to until some cool people come back.
Current cool people: you are the reason I am staying. I love you guys!
I also love Gnet.

Tenet, if you leave, I'll whip you soundly! I would miss you so terribly much and worry about you non-stop....
Asshat.

Thanks, I feel pretty stupid. This whole time I've been pronouncing it uhh...something like Ecs-en-guela. I know, I know, I'm ashamed.

Yeah, I knew that the "x" made a "z" sound when being the first letter of a word but for some reason, it didn't sound right to me.

I was born in the St. Mary's Ringling Brothers Hospital, in the self-proclaimed "Circus Capitol of the World"!

I was pronouncing Xnguela like Shangri-la, replacing 'ri' with 'wa'. X in Chinese is the 'Hs' sound (close to 'sh' but not quite), and it looked like a good fit.
Now I'm cursed to forever see it and have to pause and correct myself. Wherefor art thou, sweet ignorance?

I get that, too. I know it's zing-gway-la, yet I always end up saying zing-GWELL-a in my head. It's tragic, but I stop to correct myself more often than not.

Can't the film industry find new material? It is in my (not so humble) opinion that you can't make an olde horror movie better or creepier than the original.
Geez, I may just have to start taking in only Indie and foriegn flicks to sate my starving need for good movies. Do those even exist anymore?

Xnguela: A friend sent this to me, and since you'd recently mentioned wanting a sabre for yourself, I thought you (and others) might like watching this little video.

Is it "selling out" to have a profile on MySpace. (Well,at least I don't have
the stereotypical flipped hair).

How would belonging to Myspace be 'selling out'...?
