The VHS thread ITT: We discuss VHS tapes we still own/recall; or was the majority of Basil born when DvDs overthrew them? I was rummaging through stuff at my parents' house today and found tapes of the Kanto+Johto seasons of Pokemon and season 0 of Yu-Gi_Oh!. I no longer have a VHS player to watch them.
Pi equals 4? Well, a friend asked me this earlier today, so I was truly stumped and decided to ask my roommate, other friends, and math professors across campus and we have no answers so I decided to draw a diagram for Basil and hopefully one of you can find a flaw in this logic.

[*]Take away a corner side from the square, the perimeter still equals 4. [*]If you continue to take away corners, the perimeter of the square will still equal 4 and so when you do it infinitely, the corners should be extremely close to the the circle which would be the very close estimate of the circumference of th
Cloud Girl: Microsoft's new manga series. There was news about this back in April, but I guess Microsoft JP finally released a manga series for Windows Azure. It's apparently called Kuraudo Garu: Mado to Kumo to Aoi Sora (Cloud Girl: Windows, Clouds, and Azure Skies). As far as I've read into it, it's about a 2nd rate/amateur software engineer named Klaudia pretty much being a huge Microsoft ad.

Japanese bank robbed after tsunami/earthquake Found it on Yahoo HK [url=http://hk.news.yahoo.com/article/110322/18/ndv2.html]link[/url] Translates into: The Japanese city, Kesennuma located in the Miyagi Prefecture has recently had a bank damaged by the earthquake. Today, the bank staff discovered that the safe was open and missing 40 million Yen (Almost 500k USD). Police suspect that the earthquake-caused power outages led to the opening of the bank vault. EDIT: In the text, it is implied there is only 1 culprit.
Two questions for you, Basil UNO!: When you go to a restaurant and you HAVE to tip a waiter, why should I do that? These waiters are getting paid to do their job and so I should pay them 15% of what I just ate to these people for doing their jobs? That doesn't make much sense: "Hey, thanks for teaching me, Mr. X, let me give you a 10 dollar tip!" "Wow, that was great garbage picking-upping abilities, mister garbage man! Here! Have a 10 dollar tip for doing your job!" DOS!: Why do people in America accuse Asians for being bad drivers when Americans themselves are normally worse drivers than Asians? 1: "HAH!

Share your day, Basil In 3 bulletpoints or less, explain the most interesting things in your day. 1) I woke up and took 3 exams that could potentially screw my life. 2) My GF came by and all I had to offer was water and cup noodles because I don't know how to cook and I think my roommate was in the bathroom masturbating. 3) I open WoW and get a corruption error. I have to redownload the huge file - patch after patch. Your turn.
