    Black Mirror - Your opinions

    Black Mirror is a satirical drama about modern technology, television and other cultural aspects, written by Charlie Brooker and shown on Channel 4 (in the UK) for the past three weeks. I believe it represents the current technological culture and zeitgeist in an extremely funny, insightful and...

    American Humour is Terrible

    First 2 Pints is absolute shit. Second, there's plenty of good recent comedy, I'd count the Thick of It, IT crowd, Peep Show, anything by Charlie Brooker, QI and Stewart Lee's comedy vehicle. Sure it's not exactly the golden age of the 90s (my opinion - most would probably call the 70s or the...

    Why do some nerds hate Big Bang Theory?

    It's just a generic sitcom sprinkled with some nerd culture references and stereotypes. Give me the IT crowd any day of the week

    A game says f*** you

    Vanquish: you're sliding around, flipping and shooting, thinking "I am shit hot!" as everything just seems to come together... then it just rains hell on you out of nowhere, as you're hit by a thousand missiles at once.

    I've got King of Kong: Fistful of Quarters, I know it isn't really what you meant but it fits the description of the topic

    The Big Picture: Going Green, Part II

    Sorry, can't let it go, the visible light spectrum doesn't contain black or white, black is the absence of visible light, white is a mixture of the entire spectrum...I know...I'm sorry, still good episode.

    The Big Picture: Arch-Villains

    Totally agree, made a similar comment. Darwinism is a scientific theory (well practically fact), it shouldn't be applied to morality, philosophy or politics. That kind of thinking leads to fascist ideas like eugenics and ethnic cleansing.

    The Big Picture: Arch-Villains

    I have to disagree with your views on evolution and survival of the fittest, even though it scientifically explains how we came to be, it in no way should be applied into a moral and social context. After Richard Dawkins wrote The Selfish Gene he had to explain to a load of dicks who took it to...

    So I found out I'm on my schools "Shooting Watch List"

    Atheist = School Shooters. Who knew? Especially since (resorting to wikipedia again) "in the US, in states with the highest percentages of atheists, the murder rate is lower than average. In the most religious US states, the murder rate is higher than average" [Edit] I'm starting to bore...

    An Interesting Fact About Your Country

    I thought British and then Mongolian was bigger (Wikipedia also supports this and says Russian is 3rd which makes sense). Fourth isn't bad though Spain, but you got nothing on us Brits when it comes to imperialism and oppression!
