The various other pantheons in Smite aren't any more dead than Hinduism, they're just a whole shit-ton smaller. But hey, they're minorities so maybe they don't count. Anyways, with regards to including Judeo-Christian faiths in a game like this, perhaps using the Catholic saints as a pantheon...

I'm torn between Stephen Fry and Tom Waits. Probably Waits; he did the Bastion narrator's thing before Cunningham was even born.

I'm kind of surprised. In my experience, most psych students are through with that hyper-analyzing phase by the time they're pursuing their Masters. Nothing wrong with it.

Excellent article; I look forward to reading more!

It was kind of... "meh." It had its moments, but all in all I was unimpressed.

The only caveat I can see for this issue, the only reason cops should be protected from being taped on duty, is the opportunity for context, or rather the lack thereof. Aside from that, while wearing the uniform an officer must be subject to the highest forms of scrutiny.

These are the kind of people who give Germanic neo-paganism a bad name, dammit! I'm not a neo-pagan myself, but I'm fond of the archetypes and the stupid racist factors of the sects ruin it for the rest of us reasonable folk. Besides, given the mythology these beings are drawn from, they...

Zero Punctuation is the one that brought me here, but I've kind of grown... bored, I guess. I was personally torn between Unskippable and Extra Credits, but ultimately I'm finding myself enjoying EC more lately; occasionally I enjoy a bit of artsy-thinky stuff.

I can only really think of one person that I have a man-crush on ATM and that's Stephen Fry. The man is brilliant, eloquent as all hell and is just plain cool; not to mention he's a damn good author as well.

I don't enjoy being physically injured. That said, I'm more than capable of hurting myself if I really want to, but I won't be happy about it. Does that mean that I can choose to enjoy being injured? Not really. As people have said, anyone can choose to have sex with a person of any gender...

Just to stress this important point: DO NOT DEMAND ANYTHING!! Ask her out. If she says yes, awesome. If she says no, go on with life. If she doesn't give a yes or no give her your number and let her figure it out on her own time. Don't fret over it, though. If there's no immediate...

I'm going to add my voice to the "forget about her," sentiment. Honestly, it's not worth your time. If she were a friend that you've known for ten years or something then it's worth it. Otherwise? You're in school, working and whatever so there's nothing real inhibiting you from making new...

I can't find any specific pictures, but they're fairly standard steel-toed work boots. Rugged and, I find, comfy. I had until recently slightly shorter Harley Davidson boots with a handy zipper down the inseam but I wore those out. God that zipper was convenient. When I go camping I...

I would argue that while there aren't mechanical effects on characters specifically there are mechanical rules for alignments, at least looking at many of the core settings for D&D: The planes and their denizens. When the universe is designed to embody those alignments in an objectively...

A lethal dose of heroine perhaps. Chemically induced bliss is still bliss, but lethal doses mean I don't have to deal with the messy consequences.
