    So lads, I just saw Battleship...


    And I don't get it.

    Why were the aliens only attacking machines and whatnot?

    When did Rihanna join the Navy?

    When were aliens and Rihanna ever IN Battleship: The game?

    Why are they making a game aboot the movie when the movie was already made aboot a game?

    NOT GOOD NOT GOOD NOT GOOD NOT GOOD NOT GOOD! [​IMG]

    "Britain's National Pig Association, "the voice of the British pig industry," warned recently that a global shortage of bacon and pork "is now unavoidable" because of shrinking herds.

    The trade group reported Thursday that annual pig production for Europe's main pig producers fell across the board between 2011 and 2012, a trend that "is being mirrored around the world." The group tied the decline to increased feed costs, an effect of poor harvests for corn and soybeans.

    Even though the pig association issued its dire prediction as part of a campaign to get British supermarkets to pay pig farmers more for their products, the possibility of a pork shortage received plenty of coverage in American news outlets.

    But the projected decline isn't news to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. In its monthly outlook report (PDF) from August, the department linked a reduction next year in the United States to this year's drought in the Midwest. The government expects corn and soybean meal prices to go up and hog producers to cut production in an attempt to control losses in their operating costs.

    Considering those factors, the USDA forecasted next year's pork production at 23 billion pounds, a decrease of about 1.3 percent from this year's estimated total. That breaks down to Americans consuming slightly more than 45 pounds of pork per capita in 2013, a reduction of more than 1 percent from this year's estimates.

    The decline in production could be worse in Europe. On Wednesday, British Pig Executive Mick Sloyan told European retailers that pork losses could be as high 10 percent in the latter half of 2013, which could double pork prices, according to the U.K. pig association."

    If you compare the graphics and music ect.. its basically a rip off of the Live Action version of TRANSFORMERS... they probably thought with the success of TF this would go over well but it flopped from what I heard.

    Curious, what did ya'll think of Transformers Live Action series? If you know the original TF, did you hate the changes?

    Currently trying to stop a futile argument of Facebook. It's quite amusing when you're trying to derail something throuhg Spiderman and Dolan.

    By the way, the argument has stopped. Dolan seemed to do the trick.

    It is isn't. Here's what has happened so far:
    > be on facebook
    > one friend posts an image about vegetarians
    > topic somehow gets changed to Americans
    > the comments just involve two people argue about Americans
    > Me and another friend post Spiderman, Dolan Duck and Spongebob to derail the conversation
    > OP has a mental breakdown

    And now you're up to date. It was a great experience and I'd definitely do it again.

    Oh, SOME vegetarians and vegans just rub me wrong.. while others are respectful of people's decisions and don't try and ram it down one's throat.
    On an anti-peta page people who are against abortion troll its saying that "we" don't care about humans who are dying via abortion.. yada yada yada.
    --If they were doing it in a discussion matter I wouldn't mind.
    ---Also get people who troll there and disregard any fact given, even if its government document.
    My sister has weird comments, some sexual, some about zombies, turtles.. and none make sense.
    Political fights that end friendships... and other fights, like over people accidentally sending a game request.
    I love DISCUSSION pages were 2 sides get together and the rules are it has to be civil

    Facebook can be GREAT for updates on friends and all but you need to be able to handle bull, especially if you willingly go into a controversial or highly debatable page. ;)

    I turned 23 in May, so possibly older then some here. I watched re-runs of G1 when I was a kid... G1 of MLP and Transformers... I remember all the toys for MLP, I had the super mini ones, think I still have 1 or 2 of them... I've re-watched the full series of G1 and on in the last couple years for MLP, same with Transformers G1, beast wars, animated, and most of prime.

    So yes, been a big fan for years. Now that I have re-gained my job, after I put money for important things I plan on driving my Fiancee nuts and start collecting MLP items...

    Pleased to meet ya'll :grin:
