Solipsistic! (yea, I'm a steve) :cool:

Also my one friends likes smegma, but that doesn't sound cool to me and is just plain gross. :Q

You're one of them too.




Goddamn hippies.

:confused: ummm you do know what a trebuchet is right?

I saw one crumble to bits on Junkyard wars yesterday... :)

Me too! That was awesome... Though I saw a show once where a bunch of European engineers actually built a full size working one and that was even cooler.

Could have been... it's probably been a year since I saw it.

I saw one episode a while ago where they made a smaller one that worked. It was cool.

The crumble one was disappointing... I mean it was cool to see it smash, but I really wanted to see that car fly.

I think I may have seen the same one you did with the huge working one... They flung a car (a mini I believe it was too :) )

Hmm... guess nobody caught my Tao of Steve reference... if you get a chance rent this movie, it's pretty entertaining.

Oh yeah. Me and ShotgunSteve use the term "doorknob" to describe someone who has a poker face (no facial expression) but it's because they have no intellect to comprehend the situation.

Soooo.....what you're saying is you a british-type hippy bastard?



*halo*

Either that or a gay-type bastard.
