While I usually agree with Jim, and have never complained about the fake nerd girl thing anywhere, I think the video glossed over some important ways in which fake gamer girls are damaging: 1) They damage REAL gamer girls in three ways. Firstly, and most obviously, they add competition in a...

Okay, before you post in the poll please bear in mind it is designed for ONLY people who have played MW3 and Black Ops, and is only interested in which you prefer out of those two. The poll is missing several alternatives (such as playing Black Ops first), this is by design. If you do not...

Co-op probably wouldn't work, and I don't want funds diverted from single player. Skyrim is too loot based for it to be a simple drop in and out system, and if you don't let the other player get loot etc. it isn't fun for them (see Fable 2). Also, puzzles and things that require shouts etc...

All of my teams have had a flying and a water type due to surf and fly. It really annoys me that pretty much two slots have to get taken up by those unless you research ahead for other pokes that can learn them. I don't use ground/steel/poison types much except as secondary. Never really...

Thanks, but I meant a way to see who had new content without looking at the individual page. I used to follow four or five show on here because you could glance at the homepage to see if they'd updated. I don't want to have to click on all of them everyday just to see if there's anything new.

Okay, I can't possibly read through thirty-five pages, so as well as throwing in my vote of "hate the new design", I'd like to ask for advice on how to actually navigate it? I honestly don't understand the home page. I just clicked on an extra punctuation link that I thought was new, then...

I still haven't bought Arkham City (despite having loved Asylum) because of the whole Catwoman code thing. I'd tolerated the skins, and even Robin being DLC, even though I think it's appalling to lock out content that you've already made, but Catwoman was a huge part of the marketing and they...

Hate having to double post in this, but I was enjoying the discussion and my account got banned by mistake before I had a chance to edit in a response to this: Do you really believe that there is "nothing" bad or malicious about alcohol? Or do you mean that to be a relative description...

Not a single one of those was due to it being a social norm, apart from the skirt example. As clothing is generally by comfort or desire to appear a certain way, then the social norm is adhered to only for practical purposes. More importantly, none of the things you suggested were in any way...

I'm not sure its natural to differentiate between leisure and social time by default, but if that was your intent then fair enough. I would argue that whilst you might be arguing for apathy about whether someone screws themself over with alcohol, to take the time to argue that point would...

That's a greyish area in terms of blame as its contextual. Generally speaking, tricking someone into drinking is bad. Like, very bad. However, I've had the water shots trick done on me a couple of times by friends because they know I'm the sort of person who would be amused by it, or simply...

Not exactly 'hardcore' but given you included the LEGO games, I assume by hardcore you mean not made by PopCap or Zynga... but I liked the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games. Well, I've only played the second, but I've completed it several times and bought the first. If you have any Marvel...

Well I guess the simple response is that you've taken the time to write two medium length posts in defense of drinking, so your time is hardly limited, and when you choose to use it in this context, you sided with drinking. More generally, there are plenty of anti-drug campaigns. Drugs...

Seriously? The title is "Why are people so quick to defend drinking?" As in, a verb... done by people.

Okay, at this point I'm going to stop questioning that I'm explaining myself clearly and start assuming that people aren't actually reading my posts. I 'bunched' cannabis and cocaine together because they're both illegal drugs, as opposed to alcohol - a legal drug. I didn't criticise either of...
