I don't know if they were the "strangest," but there were these shows that were actually children's anime I used to watch. - Noozles: A little girl goes on dimension hopping adventures with magical koalas - Maya the Bee: A bee named Maya does stuff - Little Prince: A boy goes on adventures...

I personally find adultery abhorrent and racism to be vile, but at it's core, that's not what the situation is about, not rhetorically anyway. There are laws in place to what people can do in public, but in the private sphere, people are allowed to think, say, and do what they please (as long...

Here is my attorney's response: "The courts are to give wide leeway to news organizations as to what is or is not newsworthy. As the courts are the guardians of the 1st amendment but also to the right and expectation of privacy. While public figures have the right to privacy reduced they...

Sorry for the over-quoting, but I'm commenting on my phone. Anyway, I think you're correct; if this is revenge porn, it really doesn't matter if they consented or not to being filmed. The circumstances are pretty bizarre, that's for sure. Still, I think the jury made the right call. Time...

I think I found what you were talking about: This is sort of a tough call... is it better to believe what somebody says first in public, or second in court (and under oath)? Was he lying the first time, or committing perjury the second? I guess I'm more prone to believe court version...

I actually discussed this situation with my lawyer (casually, of course, because we've been friends for an absurdly long time) and we both came to the same conclusion based on the following method: what happens when you take all of the emotion out of the equation? We're left with the following...

Gawker still have the right of appeal yet, so I don't think their demise will happen overnight; assuming they loose in the appeals court though, then yeah, it's probably goodnight Vienna. The damages awarded are already, what, about 115x their annual revenue? So yeah. Not that I have that...

Recently, my Facebook feed exploded with this thread's headline. New York Times Story Main Link: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/19/business/media/gawker-hulk-hogan-verdict.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&_r=0 New York Times Archived Link: http://archive.is/YvVK0 While I do have an...

In addition to everything suggested, I'd also recommend Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies and specifically Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. A bit on the other hand, I recommend that you do NOT get Paper Mario: Sticker Star and Yoshi's New Island as they are pretty... lackluster, to put it...

I've learned a long time ago to not get my hopes up over things I want. This is one of those cases. The issue that I am having with the Final Fantasy 7 remake is that it appears to no longer be a remake, at least, not really. Remakes would be akin to Final Fantasy 3 and Final Fantasy 4...

The only thing that concerns me about modders being paid has to do with the potential for copyright issues, or that they are making money by altering someone else's work. I understand the need/want to have people paid for their work, but I worry about the legal ramifications for paying someone...

(Okay, I actually put this in the correct thread this time) I recently bought and played through Undertale and above all else I absolutely love the soundtrack; it has slowly become one of my favorites; my favorite tracks include, but are not limited to: "Bonetrousle," "Hopes and Dreams," and...

This thread looks like fun! Time to dive in :D Games Final Fantasy 4: This is my favorite game of all time, but I recognize there are many other games in the series, or just in general, that have better (more fleshed out) gameplay, stories and characters. Final Fantasy 6: I love this...

Mario Maker has consumed my life as of late.

I'd have to say The Last of Us is my biggest example. I understand why people like it, but I lost interest about halfway through the game. The plot didn't really feel that different from any other "zombie" style story and it felt a little predictable in places. Maybe I'd change my opinion if...
