I know you guys have been itching for an update on my finger.

I hate to say it, bob, but you were right. The following images may be a bit gross for some people, but I think they're fascinating. I don't really want it to heal. :(

I give it three more days.

Ewww!!! Dude, sorry, but that's just disgusting! It makes your pointer finger (the one with the weird nail.) more offensive than your middle finger

I actually lost a nail two years ago, and my finger swelled up. It become really big. So then they had to drain the blood out of it. They drilled into my nail and had all the bleed leak out. I was scared that they might hit a muscle or something, but they didn't. My new fingernail that came in looks a lot different than my other ones for some odd reason. I've lost a few other nails in my life, but that was the last one I could remember.

Well, good luck with your finger! :)

That is my middle finger. It's the most offensive middle finger ever. :twisted:

I actually lost a nail two years ago, and my finger swelled up. It become really big. So then they had to drain the blood out of it. They drilled into my nail and had all the bleed leak out.DeathScape666

I did that myself early on. I just took a pin and drilled a tiny hole in the middle then squeezed as much blood as I could out of there. Eventually, a little gap appeared on one of the sides where blood leaked out one day about a month after I injured my finger. That was probably the grossest part of it all. If blood could be moldy...

So does anyone ever post while they are working or at work?? I must admit I do all the time. I am a field employee for an insurance company so I get to work from my home a lot when I'm writing up reports. I must say that while I am working I am always checking out the forums. Have these forums ever hindered your productivity? What do y'all do for a living if you're out of school?

I always post from new computers I build. If I'm going to wait for updates and patches to download I'm going to do something in the meantime.

Pretty much I always have an eye out for what's new around here when I'm on the comp no matter wehat I'm working on.

I did until they blocked sites like that. That might be a good thing because I'm way more productive now.

It's so sad how reliant we are on the net. I'm the same way. When I without the internet for a week once I felt like I was disconnected from the world. Even more funny I was dying to check the forums and I couldn't. How do we get so addicted to a Wii forum?? It cracks me up because a few years ago I would have never seen myself participating in a forum.

Well we've seen people here ask to be banned because they can't leave on their own

Elsewhere I've been asked to suspend someone for a certain period of time because they couldn't force themselves away from the forums to get their work done.

I guess it's just like anything else, you get into a rut and then that rut becomes part of your daily routine.

Hmm... No school today, due to expectations of winter weather. What's funny is that it didn't sleet, snow, or ice. Oh, the irony.

I was just wondering-How did some people here think up their usernames here on Gamespot? Mine (and I'm sure I'm not alone) came from my first name Adam. Adrock is actually what my cousin calls me as a nickname. Some of the name here just seem random though.

You know "Adrock" is one of the Beastie Boys, right?

Anyway, I just came up with the most regular, boring name I could think of. Why? Because my real name is unique and I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in the world with this name. Some people here want to hunt me down and kill me (Jayson's one of them), so I must remain anonymous for the sake of my well-being.

You mean Newman's own? Nah. Though he does make a tasty rendition of Ranch.

I was thinking of Newman from Seinfeld actually. Now that I think about it, jerry_newman would have been sweet.

My god!!! You actually know of Newman's own!!!:o Funny thing is, I've never actually tried his stuff myself. My father would always have it after he heard about it from is friend. Light Balsamic Vinigirette, I believe is what he normally had. I just remember it from his goofy faces on the front. His face reminded me of the King from the BK commercials for some reason. I'm surprised I haven't at least had his ranch though, as I actually eat salads from time to time now, and ranch is my dressing of choice...

Sorry for reminiscing so much there...

jerry_newman would have been pretty good, but bob is more unoriginal, which I believe you said you were aiming for.

Seriously? I hope I don't get like that on this board. I doubt I would though, 'cause I get bored easily.

BTW, you can suspend someone?

ag1052 was my login name and Email given to me by my college Texas State. I use to have accounts on websites with witty names and whatnot but I got tired of trying 2 dozen different ones just to find one that wasnt taken so I just use ag1052 cause there is no website where its taken (well if it is then I bet its me)... I think Im the only ag1052 on the internet...

yeah I knew that your messages read would make mine look like a pop up book... but what is an interesting number is messages read/posts... this would be how often you post for how much you read... Im sure there are plenty of noobs who just want their post count high and they have a 1/2 ratio... but mine is 1/94 and yours is 1/54

Like some by the title I just know are going to make me aggravated so I try to ignore them.

I told you I read every post.

Well...not every post. I can tell when a thread is going to be stupid and avoid it like Larry King avoids Death.

are you sure you copied that right... if thats right then you read 3,355 posts for every 1 post you make...

Yea i copied it right. Around 2-3 month ago i tried to go to every forum and go straight to the end and somehow in the end i managed to get 5 million.

You mean through the whole Wii board? Well, that kind of makes sense, then.

No i went to the off topic forum, sw forums, and the other ones

Oh, okay. How long did it take you?
