What stuff in your room is EPIC? Tell me/us why its awesome/ post pictures!

[AfterAscon]

I've got a hubcap which I found walking home at 5am after a night out. No idea whose car it came from, but it?s my memento of a great night out now.

It?s still greasy as fuck though.

Hm.

Gonna sound too much like bragging. Oh well, fuck it.

One 12' wide wall is a book case filled with books. Includes a first edition LotR set. Several Clive Barker (incl. the Books of Blood) signed first editions, a signed first edition of the Crow, as well as various other signed hardback books (usually first editions).

Along two of the other walls are two recently built computer systems (one for me, and one for the wifey) with 32" monitors and 7.1 surround sound-- although honestly I don't know why, since we both use our headsets most of the time.

The fourth wall is a picture window that takes up 85% of the area, centered. On one side is a replica of Frostmourne, on the other a replica of the Shards of Narsil. Above the window is a WWII japenese officer's katana.

Of course, I've had 20+ more years than most escapists to collect this shit. The good news is: being a geek can pay very, very well...

Edit: I withdraw that remark, generally they both refer to a training weapon, however your right, as bokken is more used from combat/martial art practice, while a shinai is used for kendo. Also a bokken is made of solid wood and shaped like the weapons they imitated, while a shinai is a straight bamboo sword, bound together by cloths (long explanation is for my benefit and all those who are curious.)

Yup, though both are mainly used for practice. It's just wiser for beginners to use shinai considering that it'd pretty much take a deliberate effort to break them. Bokken are stronger as weapons, but far more prone to breaking. Far more prone. I still feel bad for breaking my brother's bokken all those years ago.

In any case, either is good to have. I'm assuming you put it to good use?

Well I can't formally practice kendo, but I do have fun with people who are willing to spar, and of course people who say stupid things.

It's amazing how many people here have confused the word 'epic' with either 'pathetic' or 'sad'.

Epic... I have The Iliad, The Odyssey, Paradise Lost, and The Godfather Trilogy all on one of my shelves. I can't go into what I have on my computer because the list is too epic...

You're a mean person, and only the first godfather was good. Also don't count "epics" as epic.

I would say that Godfather 1 and 2 were excellent, the third I can take or leave. Why would I not count epics as epic? 'Epic' does not mean good, it means something that extends over a long period of time or tells of great events or is incredibly large. The aforementioned epics are the paradigm of what the word means.

Well that using it more as a noun, in which case it could qualify, but we are using the adjective defined by modern culture where it is more accepted and understood as something beyond excellent and worthy of note/praise.
