Many aspects of formal education are imperfect. All humans are imperfect. There's nothing you can do about either of those. However, school has value for almost anyone. For some, that value may be learning how to write analytically, differentiate functions, or predict future human development...

When I first found TVTropes, it was pretty brutal for a while. I couldn't finish my tabs, so I kept them, and they kept breeding, so I was trapped for a few weeks on and off. It happens less often now, but it still has a chance of snowballing every time I go there.

Aside from countless spelling and grammar corrections across the years, I was apparently the first person to mention to my (well-seasoned) precalculus teacher last year (10th grade) that the Cartesian plane was developed by Descartes. He thought the Cartesians were famous for their maps or...

I'll probably buy RB3 for keyboards and borrow/rent GH6 for "2112." I hate Neversoft even more now for putting such a good song in a game I otherwise wasn't going to touch.

-Apu (The Simpsons) -Davy Jones (Pirates of the Caribbean) -Gollum/Smeagol (Lord of the Rings), and by extension any character with the same base: ---Kirby (There Will Be Brawl) ---Stitch (Lilo & Stitch) ---Yoshi (Super Mario _____) On a good day I can also do Mario, Luigi, Wario, and...

istan. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lojban] It needs to exist, so if nobody else will do it, I will.

Hair akimbo? I don't think it means what you think it means. When one's arms are akimbo, they are placed on the hips with the elbows out. I can relate to your GH experience, though; it was pretty much the same for me.

The fact that it isn't real. EDIT: I should probably expand on that to prevent moderator wrath. I think you're reading too much into things. Fiction is fiction because it isn't true, regardless of thematic elements. There is fiction where everything is perfect, fiction where everything is...

As I believe has been mentioned in some form, the answer is no because the situation is itself impossible in the first place. If there is an unbreakable object, there cannot be an unstoppable weapon, and vice versa. Therefore, the two hypothetical objects will never meet because only one can...

Roy Khan (Kamelot) or Russell Allen (Symphony X).

I have yet to get much actual junk mail; much of what ends up in my folder is legit. With this in mind, I go through to make sure I don't delete anything that isn't really spam.

Nice; you did a much better job explaining that than I can. Also, those images are quite epic.

When the sun formed, it blew off a large cloud of excess materials, which rotated with it. Centrifugal force pulls rotating spheres into discs, and that's what it did here. The debris spread out perpendicular to the axis of the Sun's rotation and kept orbiting. The whole thing would have been...

Weird; that's the only one I didn't think was good. I take it you like the shooter elements more than the Zelda elements. To each his own, I guess. Same here, kinda. I was only born in 1993, but that's no excuse for waiting until 2007 to try a Metroid game. In any case, my first was Prime. I...

Metroid Prime: Hunters. There's nothing new to say here. Multiplayer was decent, but I couldn't bring myself to finish the single-player, which is supposed to be the main selling point of Metroid. The emphasis on adventure wasn't there, making the solo game feel like a contrived distillation...
