    I'm a vegan and I come in peace...

    I don't really want to get involved here (famous last words), but I need to address this, because I hear it all the time, and it's just so damn ridiculous. Yes, some insects and rodents probably get killed when crops are harvested. I guess if you wanted to claim that being vegan makes you a...

    You first "**** This" Moment in Gaming

    I've given up on Minecraft entirely because the damn thing crashes every 30 or 40 minutes, and screws up my inventory every other time it crashes. Every few months I go back and try it again, only to find that it now crashes more often than before. Both my current computer and old clunky desktop...

    Ad blocking is the same as game pirecy

    I use NoScript, and really can't imagine trying to web-surf without something like it. Not just because of the obnoxious ads everywhere, but also because of the lovely scripts that automatically download viruses or spyware. Since it only blocks clientside scripts like Java/Javascript, I don't...

    Poll: Harmless insects

    There's no fire ants at all where I live; the one bite I got was on vacation, and I'm not even sure it was a fire ant (but definitely a stinging ant). Instead, we have tiny black ants, which, instead of biting, pour into your house by the thousands to eat a single piece of cereal you dropped...

    Poll: Harmless insects

    I usually just throw bugs back outside rather than squashing them. My room's constantly full of daddy-longlegs...es, which get tossed out sometimes, but really that's almost pointless; they're the dopiest spiders I've ever seen (they'll happily sit in one spot for weeks, eating nothing...what do...

    What is your IQ?

    IQ tests are so silly. Average intelligence is supposed to be a score of 100...yet nearly everyone here got scores well above that for some reason. Online tests are especially generous (often giving scores that are impossible on a "real" test), though I doubt real-life ones are all that much...

    A Pair of Harry Potter Quizzes!

    Took 2 tries to get 100% on Impossible...actually though I don't know how that happened, because I got 8/10 the first time, and I thought I only changed one answer. Magical shenanigans?

    "No fair you have a crowbar"

    I was messing around in a TF2 idle server with a few other players when one of them started telling us to "stop fighting." TF2 being, you know, a fighting game, this was a little silly, but harmless. That is, until he slowly escalated to full-on berzerk mode; text-shouting at everyone...

    New Pac-Man TV Series Could Tackle Racism

    I don't...I...um... Really, this is just silly. This is like someone making a fourth Toy Story movie, but in live action and with a plot based on Hamlet. Even if it was decent, the only possible reaction would still be "what the frig?".

    Yahtzee vs. the JRPG

    I'm still waiting for some reviewer/humorist to point out how silly it is that a game with "Final" in the title is now on (at least) its twelfth sequel with no sign of stopping. I know it's a really obvious joke, but...it's so obvious that it seems unfair to ignore it.

    Zynga and the Rise of the New Gamer

    Yeah, see, this is the problem. It's not like some boring flash game is beating Valve, this thing is an in-browser MMO(rpuger). That's why it's so stupidly popular: it's an MMO with a convenient addiction initiator right on your Facebook page. And Facebook itself is a sort of MMO for a lot of...

    The Escapist's PC Group - Prop Hunt! | WAR! | Brink Previews!

    Hm...Demo recording works a lot better, I think; the "videos" take up less space (my demos of the entire event are about 80 MB total), and there's a secret "startmovie [name] avi" command not mentioned in the wiki which converts the demo directly to a .avi video file...

    The Escapist's PC Group - Prop Hunt! | WAR! | Brink Previews!

    Ironically, I actually took out the audio on purpose for part of the airblast fight...but for a good reason (at least, I hope it's a good reason). There's some regular sawblade-slicing-sound-filled video of it too, though. Now I'm wishing I got video of the testimonials...I didn't tape that...

    The Escapist's PC Group - Prop Hunt! | WAR! | Brink Previews!

    Well, what with school starting up, I'm not sure if I'll have time for another video-editing bonanza next week. I can still tape it though, and if I don't have time to edit the video myself, I can send the demos to Tenmar or whoever wants to make the video that round. Also, my ridiculously...

    The Escapist's PC Group - Prop Hunt! | WAR! | Brink Previews!

    This melee night was so epic that I've started working on my own woefully inadequate video for it, which I'm hoping to finish by sometime Thursday. Tenmar's already doing the official video, but the event was long and glorious enough that two separate videos might be a good idea. So, I guess...
