    Poll: Do you have a girlfriend?

    Define "girlfriend". I'm seeing 3-4 girls right now, but none are what I would call a girlfriend. But some might, seeing as certain lines have been crossed.

    Most Awesome Dinosaur

    Ugh. No. No no no no. The Jurassic Park "Velociraptor" is not a Velociraptor. Veloiciraptor, meaning "swift thief" was about TWO FEET TALL. Scary. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velociraptor) They called the Jurassic Park raptor the Velociraptor, because people couldn't be bothered to...

    Gun Enthusiasts Complain About the "Call of Duty Effect"

    No they aren't. They aren't built for the "sole purpose of killing other human beings" any more than a bow and arrow, a knife, or an explosive is built for "the sole purpose of killing other human beings". Guns are built to propel a projectile in a (reasonably) straight line for a determined...

    Hit the *****: A Domestic Violence Videogame

    And yet... you did it. Why didn't you stop? When she was crying and sobbing and pleading for mercy, why didn't you just stop playing out of revulsion? Mere curiosity? Now read my first post. This is the point. You did a horrible thing in a video game out of curiosity. People do this...

    Hit the *****: A Domestic Violence Videogame

    Those are my assumptions. I have no idea what gangsta lifestyle is like in Denmark. And if you dont think gangsta lifestyle in the US involves domestic violence and the subjugation of women... well, uh... you're wrong. Really really wrong. Go to a DV hearing sometime and take a look at the...

    Hit the *****: A Domestic Violence Videogame

    Actually, if you really understand the mechanics of what is being done, the game is really quite compelling. First, lets deal with some assumptions. 1) In Denmark at least, gangsta lifestyle includes a lot of domestic violence. 2) People pursue the gangsta lifestyle because it is...
