your second one might involve party X not realizing what they're doing, and party Y being retarded.

So...what kind of magical relationships are you familiar with where no party actually receives any benefit from the other? Where all love is the incourruptable pure pureness of adults, and utterly untainted by any sort of personal needs or insecurities? Where human beings just shouldn't have...

I have enough friends. What I don't have is a girlfriend. If I try to get a girlfriend and instead wind up with a regular friend (that stops interacting with me the moment I stop trying), I think its reasonable that I'm a little miffed. Not at the person in question, but at life in general...

Ohh, here's another question, aimed at any women that might be here: Imagine your husband/boyfriend has sex with you, and ONLY you, and doesn't even engage in flirting with another woman, but spends little time sharing feelings with you. and instead, you know that he's got some other woman, to...

Holy Wall of Text, Batman. First of all, here's what I think is a reasonably insightful video on "Niceguys," which I think is what the Friendzone is actually about. They're the ones who are "entitled" and so angry about being there. I just liked seeing something that was openly empathic...

I have officially checked out of High Fantasy settings; the last one I gave a shit about was Dragon Age, and that wasn't particularly high. I want Swords And Sorcery back. Humans and monsters only, thieves guilds, mercs, dark wizards, decadent city-states. No damn ELF's. For a while, I was...

A word of warning: Lovecraftian horror dates from a time period when people were only just starting to REALLY get how huge the universe was. The idea of a millions-of-years-old planet and billon-year-old universe full of uncountable stars was new, and represented a huge, terrifying gap in our...

I find that with any sort of comedy, you wind up...internalizing the formula. You get used to it, and you can almost replicate it yourself. You know the equation/formula behind the graph, as it were. I don't laugh out loud at 30 rock anymore; I used to. But yeah, sometimes I worry that...

Well, Political beliefs can be mixed up in/hold a similar mental status to religion; they're formed before you're fully informed/educated, or dictated to you by your family/community, and are never, EVER questioned or re-examined, because of COURSE all the demycrats are courrupt bleeding-heart...

See, that's funny, but I know many Republicans that aren't stupid. I also know many liberally-inclined people who are blithering idiots or literally retarded. My own dad is a very intelligent person, but is ideologically wedded to the republican party circa 1985. But, being stereotypically...

Here's a bunch of rambling thoughts. feel free to tell me I'm wrong. I would posit that not all that many people are stupid. BUT, I'd like to point out that everyone here is posting on the forums of a highbrow gaming website, on the internet, and doing so with more-or-less proper grammar...

Desmond has a purpose, yes. But, what I was kind of hoping for was that, since he's so bland, and spends so much time reliving the lives of his ancestors (and so much time as Ezio), then Ezio would begin to take over his personality. Then Ezio would live again. But then, I totally figured...

Well, thank you for that. I certainly understand you not wanting to read the wall of text. Truth be told, I kind of feel bad that I had this idea; I wish it had been had by someone with, you know, actual relevant skills. I don't consider myself a great writer, by the way, and ::Shudder...

Thanks everyone for the feedback so far. I did think that the Demographic section would need a huge overhaul, so thanks for confirming that. I'm scrapping it and starting from scratch. I need to find an actual example of what the internal language on those looks like. And yes, I know how...

We Don't Go to Dumping Zone 28 The zombie level is a time-honored tradition of high-caliber action shooters (half-life 2, Halo, Uncharted, Resistance), and such an opportunity should not be missed.midway through, a mission to locate a Mcguffin forces the player to enter a vast dump avoided by...
