CNN is the Cable News Network, the first (to my knowledge) national 24 hour news channel in the US. They're mostly unbiased (with some reporters/hosts with a liberal bias), and are falling hard in the ratings, since people would rather hear what lines up with their beliefs than the truth.

Nah, the whales will accept her as one of their own (zing!). In all seriousness, her sons look dead inside. It would be better for them if she died sooner rather than later. Also, it's ok for people to be fat, and she feels healthier the fatter she gets? Being morbidly obese is very, very...

Nope. Everywhere sucks, and I'm used to the way America sucks. Enemy you know and all that jazz. I plan on traveling a lot, though. I've been to Mexico and Switzerland, but I really want to see more of Europe and go to Australia and New Zealand.

Snape, not because of emotional response at the time (that would belong to Fred), but because knowing the sacrifices he made makes the other books better when I read through them again. On side note, Hedwig, because it was so random and pointless in the book. I thought the movie did her death...

Eh, the US hasn't declared war since WWII, but that doesn't stop people from calling our conflicts "wars" because that's just what they are. That said, the UN hasn't declared war. They've set up a no-fly zone because Kaddafi is a murderous asshole who killed his own people who were protesting...

I can't stand most mainstream comics that go on forever and ever. Give me Sandman or Preacher or any of the myriad great graphic novels out there, the ones that have a story to tell through the medium of comic books and actually end. Also, the people saying Manga knows when to end, while they...

The combat is exactly the same, just faster and less wooden. It actually feels like your characters and the enemies are fighting, rather than DA:O where it felt like it everyone was fighting in molasses. The only tactical bit that was in the first game that wasn't in the demo were spell...

Absolutely on launch day. My DS is broken, so I need something to play all of my DS games on, plus the Virtual Console is going to be awesome (and I suspect we're going to end up with a Wii style situation where the Virtual Console is the best part). 3D will stay off most of the time, mostly for...

I have a friend who's like that. He'll do something incredibly stupid and/or insane, then say something so hilarious that you can't be mad at him. Also, your avi has me imagining Yahtzee as you in all of your stories, which is all sorts of hilarious.

Not mine, but my brother's high school girlfriend was/is a serious nympho, up to and including propositioning me while he was in the next room over. After talking to him about he just said "It's high school, this relationship isn't going to matter in a few years," and gave me the go-ahead if I...

Talking to one of my female friends on AIM: Her: What are you doin right now? Me: 'Batin Her: Well, that makes two Moment of awkwardness I caused while explaining TF2 classes to one of my friends (spoilered for content):
