Sorry, couldn't resist it. I had no idea what to do with my 10,000th post, so I created this lovely little topic dedicated to the number.
First up, A classic Monkey episode: Pigsy's Ten Thousand Ladies
Maybe a bit of metal? Iced Earth - "Ten Thousand Strong"
Congratulations! You are our 10,000th shoplifter!
How about The Clock of the Long Now Designed to keep time for 10,000 years?
Did you know: in the film UP by Pixar, the old man attaches 10,000 balloons to his house?
History: The Ten Thousand were a group of mercenary units, mainly Greek, drawn up by Cyrus the Younger to attempt to wrest the throne of the Persian Empire from his brother, Artaxerxes II.
10,000 square metres is one hectare.
I hope you enjoyed my short travel through the number ten thousand. Please feel free to add your own interesting facts or links about the number! |

I'm a big fan of both but haven't played any of the games which is annoying. Godzilla too, I can't believe I havent played any of those either.
There's a new DBZ MMO that looks interesting.

The best Godzilla game was the Dreamcast one. The import Japanese version even came with a green VMU.
The DBZ games are fun, but I'm waiting for the Studio Ghibli DS game that's currently being made. It'll require the biggest sized DS cart yet to fit the orchestal score in, apparently.

Aye watched the whole DB anime. The movie's were shockingly bad.
And Naruto is probably better tbh, except the huge amounts of filler....even compared to other Anime.

Wow there's a Ghibli DS game coming out? Time I got myself a DS then.
God I hate filler, that's why I'm not downloading Naruto at the moment, it's still filler I think. I cannot believe they actually did a whole years worth of filler. 52 weeks of god awful episodes.
I miss my Dreamcast, I use to love playing games on it.

Naruto ain't filler at the moment - it is Pain vs Jirayia
Should start to get awesome again.
I loved Naruto games on Xbox, just to fight online as Sasuke lol, cant beat hitting a Sharingai then Chidori someone's as$ lol
I will get the new DBZ game aswell, despite it is the same as the others with better graphics. Still love em!
DBZ Online - has been a long ime coming but you can view some gameplay videos on youtube now. It will be good but don't know if it will be pay monthly or what?!?

Oh thanks Emmie, I'll start watching it again. Yeah I don't think I'd play the DBZ MMO, I won't even play WoW because I get addicted to games easily.
Nice find pb, that game looks great, I hope they do release it in the west.

It is due out over here, but i agree with Machie - i would make my own Saiyan who i levelled up and constantly played the game with. I would loose all ym friends and family due to never leaving the house lol.
But yeah deffo watch Naruto, especially this week, shows Jiryia go Sage Mode!!

It was an inheritance from my uncle who died nearly two years ago -- it only took them 16 months to sort his estate out! They did send me a second cheque for £113 for the interest built up in that time -- must've been a low interest account ...

Um, the one which details your disability. I like the way you write it, it's like complaining, but not like in a little bitch way like you want to die. It's better than that, It's cool that you seem so cool with it.

There's no point being anything else really. I'm disabled and there's nothing that can be done about it so I might as well make the best of it. Doesn't stop me getting p***ed off about it, though, but there's no point taking it out on anyone. Besides, the person you vent your anger and frustration might be the same person you're asking to give you a lift to the cinema a week later!
