HAL9000 did you get quoted for your tweet by Yahoo Finance?

I always thought the name change was weird. I thought name changes weren't allowed.

Oh well.

Lots of people do it.

Want to change yours? Ask a mod.

Guess I was thinking of another forum that doesn't allow changes.

The only change I would want is to knock the JJO off the end, but some guy already took the username Sparky - though it looks like he never even posted since I did a search for posts done by him and came up with nothing. But he's the reason I have the JJO in the first place since he stole my name 😛

I never knew the origins either. Guess you learn something everyday.

So, when a humanoid creature raises something in its hand in front of a monolith/obelisk, you guys have no idea what it's from?

Face...fucking...PALM.

I can't imagine how many other ubiquitously understood cultural references you are missing.

Sorry, I have interests other than Sci-Fi, video games, and pr0n. Not many, but I do 🙂

This deserves ANOTHER facepalm. Look, that isn't part of pop-culture, it's part of our MAINSTREAM CULTURE. Got it?

Now, how many references to that have you seen and never noticed? I'm betting: Quite alot. It's even been referenced in just about every kids show I ever watched growing up despite many kids not having seen it yet.

Just watch it and get it over with so that you aren't culturally lacking. 🙂

[Macamus Prime]

How many HAL9000 are there?

I am thinking about 8,999 others than the one that tweeted.

Care to explain your logics on that one?

 

[AdamK47]

My favorite part of the movie was the intermission. Ahhhh ha ha... ha.

 

[911paramedic]

Not to rub it in, but how could you not know of the origins of HAL9000?

/revokes your nerd card

I'm guessing posters age is the determining factor with HAL9000.

It's a boring, nonsensical pretentious piece of shit, that people for some reason feel the need to enjoy no matter how bad the experience. I hated that movie - I refuse to get sucked into the idiotic cult following.

New Zealand has no culture.

 

[Nintendesert]

Where has HAL been?

Who gives a shit as long as he isn't here.

 

[SphinxnihpS]

New Zealand has no culture.

Who needs culture when you have so many sheep roaming around? Ahh, so little time...

Pfff....

Can i place the German guy in a barrel, beat him to death with a fish and then shoot him ?

Then again, he would probably come back from the dead and ask why i shot him after beating him dead with a fish... :|😵😱
