Would you kindly not bring up that memory?

That was really fun! I found the first one easy but the last two took a while. I DID get them all, but in the case of the last one I would have got it wrong if I hadn't just spent 5 minutes working my way through the second one, which actually requires the exact same logical realisation. Thanks...

This. I agree, in principle, with the people saying that it's only a problem when it's unreasonably pervasive. But it's NOT. Everyone keeps tossing that around as an axiomatic fact of the debate but I don't believe it at all. I think people have been indoctrinated to think it is because...

I'm gonna assume the Social Justice Warrior screams at you on Twitter, thus drawing threat, while the Social Justice Ninja (sorry, Shinobi) quietly doxxes you. Justly. Now if i can figure out what a Social Justice Shaman does, I have a team.

This game hasn't been on my radar at all, but honestly that sounds REALLLLLLY interesting. My game budget is tapped out atm, but I'll remember this.

Yeah, as a tall, strong, straight white male I do go against gender expectations because I'm more comfortable in the parenting role and my wife is more comfortable as a breadwinner. Fortunately I have never given half a crap about my expected societal role so while I don't doubt that we get...

Destiny's actually the first game for quite a while that's been able to stifle my raging League addiction for over a week. I mean, I can see all the criticisms people are levelling, and they're not wrong. But at the same time, it seems Destiny can't really win. People call it out on all the...

Well, you're right. There's a massive difference of degree though. People look at the news expecting to see reality. If the press presents a united front as to what the news is, that's going to be assumed to be reality by the vast majority. And once it reaches a certain critical mass, a false...

Considering that God of War did pretty much exactly that, I think you're onto something.

Yeah I remember that from the Baldur's Gate PS2 hack'n'slash. Jumping was faster than running, which made you look fucking stupid, so I ran, so my co-op partners who had no such qualms reached all the loot first. How is jumping faster than running? Like, seriously? Anyhow, good review of a...

I came to basically say "Cool!" (in a longer sentence so I wouldn't get warned). Then the first handful of posts are filled with glee about how miserable this is apparently going to make me, and all the excuses I will make. I don't even... Ah well, don't let 'em change you. "Cool!"

Just popped in to express that I'm now boycotting your content, after watching you for four years. The way you're acting, I'm not even sad about it. See ya.

I don't think a celebrity death has ever taken me so hard. He was just such a likable guy, and the greatest actor/comedian of all time imho. The TV station I was just watching honoured him by showing a montage of his interviews with them over the years, and he destroyed every one by reducing the...

I let them think that, if that's what they want to think. I know I'm not. If the accuser is a friend, or someone else whose opinion I have reason to value, I would discuss it with them, but if it's a random, who cares what they say? Besides, I'm a very egalitarian guy and if they get offended by...

That's amazing because I was actually thinking of Head Over Heels while I read the article! That, and The Last Ninja. What everyone here calls the NES era was the C64 era to me, and I'm sure those games are terrible now but I loved them.
