    Park Jumps Are Dead To Me

    OG Member Armada posted a thread and his opinion on being tired of jumps (http://www.newschoolers.com/ns/forums/readthread/thread_id/693174/), and how rails are where it's "at". I chuckled while reading it as I imagined a skier ending a relationship with a jump, drew it and ended up doing a...

    Condom Cases

    Most of my days I've been carrying around a "Jimmy" or in plural in my backpack, but now I've reached that age when a backpack is beginning to be a faux pas compared to the rest of my clothing. So, condom cases or containers - any good suggestions? I'm looking for something pretty basic, that...

    The Life and Times of Tim

    With so many "What shows do you recommend" threads going around lately, especially as the lack of snow draws us away from the slopes, I have to give a very high recommendation to a series that has gone pretty much under the radar, at least on NS - The Life and Times of Tim. Seriously, one of...

    Spiderman Falls

    Some countries prefer dubs, some subs, most use a mix of both. The 90s Spiderman cartoon had some of the most anemic voice acting in recorded history and was not very popular for a reason. Just listen to the screams of horror as Your Friendly Neighbourhood Spudermon falls to his doom. .

    Fate and Coincidence

    My band has been in a rough spot for a while now - our cheap and modest playing setup was pretty much cut off by the music department of Helsinki University due to lack of funds. We were left on pretty much nothing, barring electrical drums, guitars, bass and my mic. Two weeks ago, my friend...

    How to Know if You Are Stupid

    A few years back I went to a Mensa test in Sweden, just for fun, but still nervous. Why? Because I had done many IQ tests on the Internet previously, put up by Finnish Mensa or other Scientific magazines and journals, always coming up quite short in the tests, averaging at around 110 - something...

    People's belief in global warming can be swayed by something as simple as a houseplant. Participants of a French study believed in climate change much more strongly if there was a dead ficus in the interview room. In a study by the University of Bretagne-Sud, 60 volunteers answered questions...
