Re: It's a big internet out there.
Worst t-shirt ever.
Also, I only ever eat my eggs with something else. If I ever am offered fried eggs, I usually make them into an egg and bacon sandwich. If I ever make them myself, it is usually involving a convoluded omelette of some kind.
The former happens a few times a year when I hang out at a friends place for the weekend, the latter pretty nearly never happens because I don't buy eggs. If I go to a breakfast restaurant, I end up ordering an omelette, though.
Speaking of breakfast restaurants, have any Canadians heard of/been to Cora's Breakfast and Lunch? Fantastic place. The franchise has probably more than doubled in the last 2 years or so, with them cropping up everywhere (except in St. Catharines, though I want desperately to introduce the above friends to it, and there are none down on the peninsula).
Great menu. They do fruit so well. Basically it is a great breakfast place that isn't the greasy slop that you usually get with those types of restaurants. Crepes, waffles, and so much more, covered in mounds of fruit. You can get your traditional stuff (bacon and eggs, etc.), but they have a wide variety of fruit-based breakfasts. I usually go with the Raspberries 4 Lucie (which is a load of raspberries and English cream stuffed into a large crepe) and their raspberry waffle (A belgian waffle covered in custard, raspberries and raspberry coullie). Sadly they've taken the latter off the menu. The strawberry substitute is good too, especially this time of year where the strawberries are fresh. I'm going on Saturday for my dad's b-day.

Re: It's a big internet out there.
Never heard of it. Is it one of those serve yourself buffet type places? I freakin love those after a night of drinkin. There is a place in London, called Harmony house or something, that sounds a lot like that. All sorts of fancy breakfast stuff and a huge fruit bar. Great, now I'm hungry.

Re: It's a big internet out there.
No, it is just a regular menu-type restaurant. I just prefer it to others, because greasy breakfasts tend to leave me feeling gross for a time.

Never been, but I might check it out. It's not too hard to get to.

Re: It's a big internet out there.
I'm on so many forums, websites, communities, groups etc it's not funny. I've cut down a little this year though.
Yeah, you know you want to talk about creativity. http://www.notebookinhand.com The interpretation of 'creativity' is up to you!

I used to frequent the Newgrounds forums, but I haven't really been there in a while. Every once in a while, I'll look at the YTMND or Explosm forums too.

Re: It's a big internet out there.
I use GameFAQs, mostly the TF2 board...
Facepunch (for Garry's Mod, Half-life 2)
Rag Doll Software (small indie game developer)
Blitwise (another small indie game developer)
The forum of my favorite TF2 server
And there are the two sites that I made, but they're not very active. On one, I mostly have one person show up every month or so, ask a few questions, then be gone again. Lucky for all of them I check in every day. =P
I've tried to get into the XKCD forum, but it's really big and like 80% of the members are really pretentious because they know the quadratic formula or something. Plus, I think XKCD has a lot of days that the comic is stupid, and I know I wouldn't be able to stick around because I'm sure the forumers all believe that the guy shits gold on a daily basis.

Re: It's a big internet out there.
I've noticed most of the webcomic forums don't really talk about the comic all the time. It makes sense. As good as a comic is and as regularly as it might update, it usually isn't enough to sustain a day's worth of conversation.
The one exception I can think of is the xkcd forum. Every time a comic comes out 50 people flock to post about how much they love it and how much they'd like Randall Munroe to get out of their head.

Re: It's a big internet out there.
That's the thing about people who are serious fans of xkcd. I don't mean regular fans I mean, like, serious fans... I mean, it's a very funny comic, I keep up to date with it... But they have, ya know, problems...

Re: It's a big internet out there.
I've been reading the xkcdsucks blog. What's amazing is the analysis of the comic to figure out what's wrong with Randal.* These are funnier than the comic ever is.
