You know something that's exactly like that? The kid in Dazed and Confused, with the long hair. He's constantly squeezing his nose, and once you notice it or someone tells you about it, you notice it every time, just like the hands on the hips.

Anyway, I could easily look this up, I suppose, but I like jr., so I'll help out with his thread. Does anyone know what it means when a movie is shot in letterbox format? Like, what it looks like on screen?

will someone tell me what a bollock is. I understand it's a demeaning word apparantly used in the u.k.-ish region but, what exactly does it mean?

Bullshit, roughly.

littleknowitall · 04-23-2006, 06:29 PM

bollocks = testicles. although i thought that was commonly used out of the uk :S so maybe its something else your refering to.

and yes 'thats a load of bollocks' > ' thats a load of bull****'. also that...

well that's nice and all but im afraid its bollocks*

to answer your question what you probably consider to be a complex chord is a chord thats dissinant, like in king kong, chords that sound like they clash, therefore far more difficult to put into sequence, to they can alot of the time end up sounding like absolute bollocks.

i need to know how to take a screen shot quickly... anybody?
