BF2S Forums fuck inauguration day

He means refresh rate. Fast motion looks better on a 100Hz TV e.g: a sniper bullet bouncing off Obama's halo

So, who's gonna stock up on food and drinks tomorrow? I'm sure as hell not stepping foot out of my house after Monday night. Fuck this stupid inauguration in the ass. I like Obama but fuck road closures and massive amounts of tourists. This is OUR city.

I'm planning on buying a big family-size Stouffer's Mac n Cheese and some soda.

Why wouldn't you go out and enjoy yourself Hurri?

I'm sure there's going to be fireworks and people trying to sell you stuff, but it's still going to be a big party after all the ceremonial stuff is over.

car pool if you are worried about traffic

3) You won't be trapped in traffic, be it pedestrian, automobile, or metro for 4 hours

4)If you've got high def and a 100hz TV you'll be able to see the sniper's bullet as it bounces off Obama's halo.

Don't forget the SLOMO replay !!

Boo hoo.
Boo hoo hoo.
Boo hoo hoo hoo HOOO!

Or I could just watch it on HBO in HD instead of seeing a small speck resembling Springsteen amidst a throng of hippies. In the cold. And then having to take a crowded metro (apparently the metro was more packed than the last Fourth of July).

And those of you who are all like "QQ faggot" obviously don't grasp the gravity of this situation. I guess there's some comfort in that, knowing that your towns will never be important enough to have 2.5 million visitors come to see one guy. Silly me, what was I thinking? ^_^

@Home you're not missing anything. Come in the spring when it's warmer, there are less tourists, and the cherry blossoms are in bloom.

He was referring to the fact he wouldn't have four days of interaction with three hot girls, not the fact he wouldn't see the city.

women are over rated

We use 60Hz here. 120v, 60Hz.

Unless you mean 120Hz refresh rate?

The developed world uses 50hz, so tvs are 50 or 100hz refresh.

Fuck Fuck Fuck...I have to go from Springfield, VA to American Univ. tomorrow....rush hour fares all day and I probably won't be able to find a place to park at the Metro garage.

Goddamn fucking tourists.

I now live in Lorton so I guess I could take the VRE, but I don't want to get up at the asscrack of dawn to take a fucking 6 am train!

oh noes, one day of traffic

pfft, that's why new york is win

It's not traffic. It's 1-2 million people in an area the size of Central Park (or smaller). It's all bridges over the Potomac closed off. It's all major highways from the beltway in closed to traffic.

Yeah...just traffic. DC traffic sucks balls on a good day. Tomorrow's going to be as bad as a brazilian wax.

I'm going to be staying in my lovely home in Springfield, watching the festivities on TV, then going out with the family to run errands while all those knuckleheads are standing in the cold.
