    Escape to the Movies: Avengers

    Uh, who's talking about back in the day? Marvel and DC continue to find new and innovative ways to fuck over creators right now (I'm mean seriously, "Marvel's The Avengers"? What the fuck.) You're also ignoring the basic extortion Marvel used when getting creators, particularly Jack Kirby, to...

    Warner Brothers Foresees End of Shoddy Superhero Games

    If they kept it as R-rated as the movies, that would actually be pretty great. I'm actually surprised there isn't a Blade video game, to be honest. I read an amusing review the other day that basically points out that Blade II is pretty much a non-interactive video game already. Oh, and and...

    NASA Can't Find Its Moon Rocks

    Actually, if it was fake they wouldn't let people, particularly scientists, have the rocks. Ever. That should be pretty obvious. The fact that they were so careless with these rocks means they're not particularly concerned that the wrong person will get hold of them and realize they were faked...

    Weigh In On The Games As Art Debate

    Because, sad as it may seem, the amount of effort involved in creating a work doesn't necessarily determine a work's quality or importance. Also, the fact that an artist makes a thing doesn't necessarily make that thing art. That said, games can be art, and there are legitimate arguments...

    EA's Online Passes Have a Limited Shelf Life

    By "young adults" do you mean everyone age 18 to playing-Wii-at-a-retirement-centre? Because that's the vast majority of gamers as well as the demographic with the most spending money, and they've been playing for more than a decade. And if you've been playing since Pac-Man then you're well...

    EA's Online Passes Have a Limited Shelf Life

    You damned kids and your virtual hula hoops! Seriously though, your post demonstrates an incredible ignorance of the history and culture of video games as well as basic player demographics.

    Nice Guys Suck

    Yeah, it's almost like knowing your "real feelings" is related to how I treat you. Rand thought she was entitled to go for any guy she wanted without having judgement cast on her, but was a complete hypocrite who went apeshit when a guy did the same thing to her and felt free to get very...

    Nice Guys Suck

    Thanks! It is a bit confusing, it seems, but the reason they're called Nice Guys is because they call themselves nice guys (usually while grumbling some variation of the "nice guys finish last" bullshit to justify how their shitty, cowardly behaviour fails to be a hit with the object of...

    Nice Guys Suck

    That part of my analogy is intended to be more comparable to judging how qualified you are for the job/date before applying/asking the person out. For the job, if you, the nice guy with zilch going for him beyond "not a total asshole" decides "Yeah, this job that requires loads more experience...

    Nice Guys Suck

    Not to mention that while love may exist, unconditional love is a foolish romantic (and Romantic) fantasy that doesn't exist, and you will only harm yourself and others by believing in it. EDIT: Although I thought I should add that what DracoSuave wrote about love needing to be earned is...

    Nice Guys Suck

    Out of curiosity, where did you get "be disrespectful to women" from " you can get out of the house, meet new people, take the chance of getting hurt and be a happier person for it"? Also, the Nice Guy is not the article writer's neologism. You can google it for more information. She actually...

    Nice Guys Suck

    Hoo boy, where to begin. Okay, well, pardon me for overstretching my job analogy, but I just thought it up, and I'm rather enamoured of it (also, a warning, as with all analogies this one should be used for clarification, not "proof" of anything): 1. Let's start with the general and move...

    Nice Guys Suck

    Well, thank you kindly for saying so! I'm certainly no relationship expert, so I can't really advise on the ins and outs of the situations you've presented. However, I guess my main point about Nice Guys is that they are fundamentally dishonest, which cannot lead to a healthy relationship, so...

    Nice Guys Suck

    I considered writing a full response to this, but I think Athinira covered it pretty well. Adding anything else would likely be redundant on my part. Let me know though if there is anything you would still like me to clarify that you feel Athinira did not discuss or that you feel pertains...
