    Poll: Your Pet is Drowning, and so is a Stranger.

    I find it ironic that even the people who claim they'd save the person instead of their pet, reason this by saying that otherwise they wouldn't be able to live with themselves. So... yes, you are saving a person over a dog, but you're still doing it for selfish reasons. There really is no...

    General Unpopular Opinions

    I guess "least harmful" was kind of an unfortunate way to describe genetic manipulation on my part, but I'm simply getting tired of the general idea that the whole idea is somehow evil and will eventually lead to apocalypse and/or a genetically perfected army of evil soldiers from North-Korea...

    General Unpopular Opinions

    Sure, but then again, I don't think stopping all scientific research simply because it might (I can't stress the word 'might' enough, seeing as you decided to go with 'will', as in 'I can and will predict the future') someday be used for something evil is rational. Electricity has been (and, I...

    General Unpopular Opinions

    Unpopular opinions are meaningless if you don't back them up with good arguments. Avatar is a shit movie. They had 12 years and the budget of a small country to come up with an interesting plot. Yet it's still the same as 95% of Hollywood-productions, it's just a little bit prettier. I...

    Your Fake ID name

    I'd be Keith Fasidis. Partly because I could say I was from Greece (not saying Fasidis is Greek, just that it kind of sounds like it could be), but mostly because it's an anagram for 'this ID is fake'.

    Your Skyrim character quirks.

    I just... have no words to describe how much you rock. I love you though. Thought you should know. OT: My wood elf is pretty anal about saving everyone. Seriously, I'll restart that stupid quest if I lost some unimportant side-character. And I'll usually be able to save him. But then...

    Pair rape and Murder a girl. Then confess in WoW.

    And yet still somehow Finland manages to be one of the countries with the smallest criminality rates in the world. What that shows is that the answer to increased law-breaking isn't harsher sentencing. It's better education. And more giving-a-crap, which I'm sure could have prevented the...

    Pair rape and Murder a girl. Then confess in WoW.

    Death penalty isn't punishment. It's revenge. What you're saying is very true, but also very idealistic. Where do you imagine drawing the line? Let's say, murderers and rapists get the death penalty. And child molesters, those guys deserve it too. Oh, but what about mistakes? I mean...

    Trailers: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - Strike Packages

    ^Pretty much this. I mean, come on people, all you see is a freaking trailer and based on that alone you're calling a game unbalanced? Let's at least give these guys the benefit of a doubt, because they're actually CHANGING SOMETHING. Before this everyone was angry about nothing being...

    STOP THE PRESSES: GTAV has been Announced

    God, oh GOD let it be more like San Andreas and less like the gritty angst-fest that was GTA IV. Seriously, GTA IV was just boring. San Andreas is still one of the best gaming experiences ever in my opinion. I'm kind of failing to see how exactly GTA IV was in any way innovative. Now...

    Energy drink survey for marketing class

    1. Price - 4 - Depends very much on my financial situation. I live in Finland, so sometimes I'll go ahead and buy the 2,50e/0,33l Battery, but that's exceptional. Still, I prefer 1,80e for a 0,5l Rockstar cola any day. 2. Brand - 1 - As long as it tastes good, I'm all for it. 3. Package - 4 -...

    Don't Expect Friendly Dragons in Skyrim, Says Bethesda

    Taking a dragon to a dungeon with me didn't seem like a viable option anyway, but I was kind of hoping for the possibility to RIDE A MOTHERFUCKING DRAGON. Still, mods... We'll be able to freaking marry the dragons faster than anyone expects.

    Do you ever get called a hipster?

    Sometimes, yeah, but that's ironically, which now that I think of it makes the calling me a hipster hipster in itself... Yup.

    Study Claims Profanity Causes Aggression

    Sooo, lets me get this straight: they asked 223 normal teenagers about their cursing and entertainment preferences and deducted from the answers that profanity in media causes profanity in real life. Fair enough, that's reasonable to assume even without any testing... But where the fuck did...

    Lurking and you

    Hell to the yes, I lurk all the time. In fact, I did the account verification just to post this (and then I did something that caused my post to disappear and then I rewrote it and now we're here and all is well). Anyhoo, perhaps this will be the end of my lurking ways...
