    Poll: What is your opinion of PeTA?

    bunch of pretentious arseholes, eco 'terrorists' (i use that term as all they do is free mink that ravage other wild life, edgy), and general other assorted elitist pricks who want you to feel bad about being an omnivore/alive/a person/not them. I say this being a vegetarian myself, and I...

    How would you convince someone the Holocaust existed?

    I would kindly invite them over to Europe where denying the Holocaust is illegal and giggle a lot when they get sent to prison for a lot of years.

    help me with my project: what if gay were the norm and heterosexuality were taboo?

    well, if everyone started out gay, then (hetersexual) sex by that logic would become a 'well we kinda have to', so logically from the stand point alone that both gay men and women would have to cooperate to simply survive would probably mean several things: 1. Sex and all the issues that have...

    How do people stay thin?

    high metalbolism, walking everywhere even when the nearest everywhere is 2 miles away, enjoy not sitting still for more than three seconds, stage diving, punching people you don't like at gigs (the back pummell is by far the most hilarious one to watch), not drinking alcohol, not eating food...

    Games You'd Buy Twice

    Half Life, Half Life 2 and Eternal Darkness, mainly as I have bought all those games at least twice (i think the original half life is now on 3 due to the re releases with extra bits like Opposing forces and what not). I've sort bought Pokémon Gold twice as I bought the DS rerubbed version as...

    Does anybody else sense a lack of musical diversity on the escapist?

    16 bit - twice, if you aren't smiling and nodding yourself to sleep with the incredibly well balanced mix of tones and hooks then all hope is lost! ps. this would never get played in a club, don't trust club music to be an example of a genre, as it'll always be rhythmically driven not...

    Does anybody else sense a lack of musical diversity on the escapist?

    erm... Dubstep originally started as an experimental genre first championed by magazines like Wiretapper (the ones that love both John Cage and Sunn O)) amongst others) before evolving into a dance music genre than championed by such places like Radio 1 and mixmag. So expecting it to sound...

    Does anybody else sense a lack of musical diversity on the escapist?

    whilst I'd like to point out I do like games since the last new console I bought was the Nintendo DS (the oringal at that) I would hardly come under the hardcore gamer tag, but I do like a wide range of music as can be detailed here: http://www.last.fm/user/jonoortrev if you're wondering why...

    Have you heard of a "Homosexual Therapist?"

    This seems to almost bear along the same lines as 'OMG I'm bisexual as I'm a 14 year old girl and held another girls hand' logic. It has I'm fairly sure been proved that genetics plays some role in sexuality, as the fact there's many species on animal kingdom that can be gay, and not all of them...

    Deadliest injury you have caused to another human?

    me I've done not much to other people, broke a few noses, kicked out a guys teeth (by accident), disolcated a guys knee (horribly painful, but not life threatening ever), some other mosh damages in the stage diving and well, moshing departments. Had a guy smash a brick over my head once, a...

    Poll: Sex or Gaming?

    Everything else > Sex whilst said example is games, for me its usually the choice of moshing or sex. Moshing > everything else ever.

    The Most Immoral Thing You've Done in a Video Game

    knocking people out unconscious in Splinter Cell Chaos Theory then preceding to drown them in nearby water. Nuking/chemicalling/killing with whatever superweapons available my own team in Command and Conquer games was always hilarious.

    Sony Website Hacked By the "Lulz Boat"

    that's if Sony will be left with any money after this, this roughly opened them up to so many many many many many law suits. As lulzsec/boat have shown their methodology, they've literally been able to prove with nearly no doubt that Sony have been in complete breach of the pretty much all Data...

    What was the last great book/novel you read.

    last book I read was Animal Farm, anyone that hasn't read Animal Farm/any of the George Orwell books should really change that, excellently written, albeit a tad short (I may just read fast but it is only 100 pages) and is a book that will compel you to keep reading.
