    Foreign flags in the US

    Dang, it's creepy to see this flag nonsense in such young people (I assume most people here are between 14 and 30?). People who make a big deal out of being an American, Belgian or whatever is truly disturbing. People following symbols, telling you how proud they are for being something they...

    Most interesting fictional culture

    I think I'd go for the Underdark from the Forgotten Realms and then especially Menzoberranzan. The way women are considered to be way above men and treason and deceit are to be respected. When I started reading The Dark Elf Trilogy I was really interested in that culture and it also made me...

    the Illogic of animal rights

    The writer of the article makes a mistake pretty early on. He states that "The so-called "animal rights" movement is relying upon...". Then he puts down these premises that he somehow states are theirs. First of all there is no animal rights movement as one big machine. Animal rights are as...

    Operation: Flashpoint: Dragon Rising - What is it like?

    [Offtopic]To thread starter: I came to this thread to talk about Operation Flashpoint, not Dragon Rising. Please be more precise in your thread title. Now I'have to find somewhere else to praise the original Operation Flashpoint :)

    recommend me jazz music

    I'd go with my personal favourite: Chet Baker. He's an amazing trumpet player AND jazz singer. One of his best songs is also on the GTA IV tracklist. It's called Let's Get Lost: For the more modern uses of jazz I'd recommend St. Germain: and Koop: This last one is used in a...

    What are you doing?

    Its 4:56 am over here and I should be in bed. I was playing some Kingdom Hearts and then some Fahrenheit, but I ended up watching IT. I didn't know the movie is about three hours long, so I'm gonna finish it another time. THAT hardly ever happens. I have a ton of movies I still have to finish.

    Computer Game Movies

    I hate the way they ruin game movies by injecting it with the standard movie formula. Like in the Hitman movie they make him get all romantic. In the games he's the coldest son of a ***** you could imagine. But because a movie apparently must have a romantic storyline, they put it in. And that's...

    Dumbest Things Heard In School

    I haven't been to school for years now, but I remember wearing my 'The Bloodhound Gang Hates You' t-shirt. A girl comes up to me and says 'they don't even know me' in a concerned way...

    What makes you a nerd?????

    I think the Star Wars posters, lightsaber and clone trooper helmet on the walls are pretty nerdy. I also have a lot of books about the forgotten realms, I worked as an editor for a games magazine, have almost every zombie movie on dvd. Oh, and I just finished watching all six episodes of Dawsons...

    Poll: Do I have a point?

    Eh, so you are out of the relationship and now you want confirmation about the fact she forced you to sexual stuff you didn't want to do?

    How diverse is your taste in music?

    I mainly listen to old punk and traditional folk. But I also enjoy Chet Baker (jazz), The Streets (hard to describe), Elvis and Misfits.

    Poll: what makes a horror game

    When a game gets me to turn on the lights or turn off the game while saying: "Okay, this is it, I've had it!" then I consider it a good scary game. Condemned made me do both things and that was because of the sounds the enemies made and the way they jumped at me. I get way too easily...

    Film

    My favourite war movie would be Full Metal Jacket and if you mean World War II, then I recommend watching Band Of Brothers. It's my the same people that made Saving Private Ryan and just as good if not better. Oh and it's ten episodes of one hour. So you do the math. For a thriller I would...
