Fat People

No, it's the combination of: 1. The steadily rising obesity epidemic that everyone can see. 2. The steadily rising commonality of unhealthy, fatty, processed foods that everyone can avoid 3. The steadily rising ease to actually get physically fit.
People are running out of excuses to not at least make an attempt to get physically fit and healthy. Like I said like three times, I don't have any issue with overweight people. I have an issue with those people who stay overweight, are aware of it, and don't do shit about it. It's getting easier by the day to maintain your health and weight, and if you don't have the willpower to do so then guess what; suck it up.
Being overweight in this day and age isn't just another personality flaw, it's a rising, lethal epidemic caused by laziness in most cases. My opinion still stands.
There are a lot of people who are substantially overweight, know it, and make attempts to control it. Sometimes these attempts fail because people aren't the magical willpower machines I mentioned earlier. Not having infinite willpower IS a basic human personality flaw common to EVERYONE. Some people are more motivated than others, but damn, you can't expect everyone to be perfect about it, and you can't really blame someone who knows they have a health problem if they try to take control of it just because they don't always succeed.
And of course, if they don't even try, that's certainly no good, but you could say that of any unhealthy behavior, and I think you're coming off as the type to be really prejudicial about obese people before even learning why they're like that or what they might be trying to do about it.

However,I have a large, an extremely large grudge against fat people.
So do you have an extremely large grudge against everyone?
No?
Do you realize that EVERYONE has glaring personality flaws, and that someone having a predisposition to gaining weight and not having the current willpower to change that is not necessarily more flawed than anyone else?
Sure, people can do things to lose weight even if they do have a natural predisposition to slow metabolism and weight gain (severe hormonal/other problems aside), but you could say that about ANY flaw that ANY of us are aware of. Most of them you just can't see.
If you don't hold a grudge against someone for having some other arbitrary personality flaw or habit, why hold a grudge because they're fat? Because you have to look at it? Any other reason?
Everybody's got problems and nobody deals with all of them perfectly. Some people can't quit smoking, or drinking, or gambling, or eating too much sugar, or having certain problematic character flaws. Everybody has issues like that, which they wish they had more willpower to circumvent. If you're going to single out some obviously-visible or pet-peeve issues and hold serious grudges against people and hate them for it, then quit being a hypocrite and just become a total misanthrope and hate everyone equally, because that's the only way you WON'T be a hypocrite.
It sucks to have a weight problem. It sucks to lack the motivation to take care of it fully. It also sucks when people latch on to that one visible thing (or any other visible thing) about you and judge you like crazy for it without giving a damn what you're actually like, even if you, overall, have FEWER vices or uncontrolled flaws/willpower than MOST people. You shouldn't have to suffer more socially just because your personal problem is more readily noticeable than anyone else's. People aren't magical machines that can install a self-control chip to automatically fix any problem they theoretically COULD fix via free will, and that applies to weight problems as well as any other.
Midi's Versus MP3s

Generally, WAVs are uncompressed MS Windows audio files. If a WAV is compressed, it is technically no longer a WAV. There are different methods and algorithms, such as PCM and ADPCM, which can differ in sound filesizes, but other than that there is no compression scheme used.
This is incorrect.
WAV is a container format, and can support multiple different encoding options.
Sure, the only normal use for it is uncompressed PCM audio, but it can hold MP3 as well. I'm not sure if it has support for other compression schemes; I think it can, but nothing many people actually use. And, as you said, it can use encoding aside from PCM for uncompressed audio as well.
The Israeli Palestinian Conflict.
Way to dodge most of the question. All you've admitted so far is that you don't think it would actually solve the problem, but that you want to do it anyway.

Is it normal to be attracting alot of slutty girls in comparison to, well.. nice girls I guess you could say?
Yes. Are you macking on girls at parties/at the bar or whatever?
Yes and no. Even when I don't I always seem to attract the same kinds of girls.
Sluts are attracted to me, as well. I got this one girl that had sex over 50 times (With different people btw), she's bi-sexual and she's an alcoholic. She claims she "Loves" me and she's been with her boyfriend for 3 years now, but she always calls me and says how much she misses me and shit. She doesn't wanna have sex with me because she says she's not good enough for me and that I deserve a virgin.
She's really weird and always wants to be beside me :-\
... I'm kind of trying to figure out what being bisexual has to do with any of that.
The Israeli Palestinian Conflict.
author=Feldschlacht IV link=topic=2869.msg55887#msg55887 date=1231872735How the hell do you know this? The only assumptions you've made is that Hamas is barbaric and will kill anything that moves much like what Israel is doing right now.
To be fair I am positive that I have read from numerous sources (and Hamas themselves) that Hamas won't stop until Israel is completely and totally annihilated.
Yes, but it's not like they're actually ACCOMPLISHING the job.
There's certainly a problem with your next-door neighbor saying they want to annihilate you from the face of the planet, but that doesn't mean you carpet-bomb their house and kill half their kids for it, especially if all they're managing to throw at you is half-pointed sticks.
In your opinion, which series fans are the worst?
Invented the FPS? Are you kidding?
Did you not exist before eight years ago?
Honestly now, I'm not a Halo fan and still admit it had its good points, but it didn't "invent" very much.
First-person shooters have been around for a long time, and the modern type have been around since, as Harmonic said, sometime around Wolfenstein 3D. And what about Doom?
Unreal? Quake? Their sequels and spinoffs?
How about Goldeneye: 007 and Perfect Dark? Those were great games, and really helped popularize the console FPS.
And what about the ones that aren't quite straight FPS, but still have the basic elements, like Deus Ex and the System Shock series?
You're leaving out an awful lot of gaming history here, and I'm not getting pedantic and going into some rant about the actual pre-Id Software roots of FPSes (which go back to the '70s), because obviously we're just talking about the genre as it matured. But seriously. Come on.
Saying that Halo invented the FPS is like saying that Super Mario 64 invented the platformer.

Midi's Versus MP3s
Yeah, there's really no good reason to store an MP3 stream in a .wav file as far as I can tell. Not really recommended.
