Now that I realize it, Highlander seems to be the only live action series with "Hammerspace". Yet, the series isn't a comedy.

Edit: Wait, that Bruce Lee movie Return of the Dragon did used some hammerspace, when Bruce got out two nunchucks.

Edit Again: Forgot Toei live action stuff does this too.

Hammerspace is basically a consealed item like me carrying a hammer in the back or front of my shirt or in the front fooling everybody that I am fat.

Then again Ninjas would have to use the idea of Hammer space to concel there Ninjitsu thunder/water/ice/fire amd others with the usages of powers and erds. you could say a fire bomb would be fire Jitsu or paralisis powder could be thunder jitsu ( or whatever the real name is thank you FFIV and Orge Battle. )

Hammer Space could also be describe where Doma in Lupweta: Castle In the sky continuesly draws bombs and weapons from here brouch???.

A easy example of Hammer Space is with Jake and Silent Bob where Jake or most likely Silent bob pulls out something or conceals something to the point no matter what they do the item never shows up or shows up right on que.

An example I recently did with Hammer space I hid an item under my coat and people were staring the fact hey they could see a mis shaped object while others thought nothing about it or when I folded up my shirt and everybody thouhgt I had muscles I could have hid things in the folded up parts. The point is me or you placing an item in your sleves of your coat like a girl places money in her cleavage is a great idea of Hammer space.

One last example is in the end of plup fiction when they cnceal there guns in there pants and thus hammer space is creating the idea that "they have big guns".

The Monty Hall Problem coul dnever be sloved since they can always switch the goat from door to door never revealing the car. More importantly the host buys enough time for them to switch the goat then again you would never see the car unless they wanted you to see it.

Like gambling with cards in reality there is no red card or pea just black.

Everything you ever wanted to know about internet trolls but were afraid to ask.

***Utils*** · 1st February 2006, 01:11 PM

Here's the interesting part (Not quoted because who wants to read a big thing in italics?):

In general, popular wisdom advises users to avoid feeding trolls, and to ignore temptations to respond. Responding to a troll inevitably drives discussion off-topic, to the dismay of bystanders, and supplies the troll with the craved attention. When trollhunters pounce on the trolls, ignorers reply with: "YHBT. YHL. HAND.", or "You have been trolled. You have lost. Have a nice day." However, since trollhunters (like trolls) are often conflict-seekers themselves, the loss usually is not on the part of the trollhunter; rather, the losers are the other forum-users who would have preferred that the conflict does not emerge at all.

Literature on conflict resolution suggests that labeling participants in Internet discussions as "trolls" can perpetuate the unwanted behaviors. A person rejected by a social group, both online and offline, may assume an antagonistic role toward it, and seek to further annoy or anger members of the group. The "troll" label, often a sign of social rejection, may therefore perpetuate trolling.

Right, so no matter what Reguluse will troll HerV, gaining momentum and generating bio-mass until he crushes existence itself.

***Utils*** · 1st February 2006, 01:22 PM

I was thinking more of SBZ.

And I've done this MYSELF so I know it's true.

***Utils*** · 2nd February 2006, 03:45 PM

Too late to post something today. I'll get an early start tomorrow.

I have a lot of interesting entries queued up so don't worry.

Nezumiiro · 2nd February 2006, 04:05 PM

Utils, I remember you being able to put most top-tier trolls to shame. Most improved poster award indeed!

(Fun HerV fact: some actually refered to Utils as YOU-TOOLS at one point.)

***Utils*** · 2nd February 2006, 04:09 PM

You should post that in the herv wiki.

***Utils*** · 3rd February 2006, 03:58 AM

I'm going to make this a monday-friday type deal. Friday entries will be epic. Like this entry on Warez. Don't click on it unless you have time to read this entry and the sixteen others you'll be opening up in tabs. It's VERY interesting to read and I know I learned a lot the first time I happened apon it.
