    Bizarrely Easy Boss Fights

    Diablo himself from the first Diablo game. Several people I know killed him accidently without him being on screen, in a couple of cases (including mine) not even knowing he was there. I played an archer and put almost everything into an electrical attack that scattered out along the floor...

    Which comic book would *you* make into a movie?

    Good call, I second this. I'd go with The Griffin, a six-issue DC offering from 1991. It has a good story, is a complete story, and has some fun. "The world doesn't revolve around you!" "It would if I wanted it to." You could make the movie 1.5 - 2.5 hours and do it justice anywhere in...

    Greatest Line In Media

    Your kung fu is useless... as well as obsolete. Never heard of you. I don't read the funny papers.

    Gay porn: an audience for females too?

    Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the webcomic, but I did see a comparison of Yaio to live gay porn and why women seem to prefer yaio. Yaio has two "beautiful men" gracefully "taking one another" on a bed of roses, while regular gay porn probably more resembles two mange-stricken bears...

    LGBT in Video Games

    I am annoyed by things like "Gay Pride". I am not proud of being heterosexual, I just am. My sexuality is meaningless to anyone other than me, any women with whom I have a relationship, and any men who might want a relationship with me (doubtless heartbroken at losing such a treasure). In...

    Poll: Body modifications?

    None for me, thank you. But I do try to keep convincing other people that they should get an eye tattooed on the end of their tongue. Imagine the look on a persons face if while they are talking to you, you poke your tongue out a bit, swivel it side to side, then pull it back in. By the...

    Worst marketing line you've ever heard.

    By the standards of advertising, the Ohio Lottery slogan is one of the worst I've heard: "You can't win if you don't play". Take out two words and you have "You can't win don't play". Truth in advertising, maybe, but lousy marketing. Their old slogan was much better (assuming you want to...

    People with extremely strange names.

    At a place I worked I used to go through the names in the email address book. Iva Human (locked away for eating later, perhaps?) stood out, as did the combo of Dick Biggs and Dick Smalls. I've seen a Sickens and Dyer Auto Repair... better than a doctor's office, to be sure, but I'm not sure...

    Top 3 Most Viewed Websites

    1 - www.piperka.net - keeps track of webcomic updates, and where I am at in archives 2 - www.stackoverflow.com - coding problems often lead me there 3 - It's a tossup. I usually don't spend a lot of time on the net aside from webcomics and looking things up. For third it is pretty evenly...

    Escapists; What are you listening to?

    A few minutes ago, Parov Stelar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAFBOl8fcyM Swing has come a long way in 80 years.

    What is your all time favourite anime?

    My favorite is Fuma No Kojiro, where rival ninja clans fight over control of the public school system in their prefecture. Which is clearly the greatest concentration of power in Japan, when you think about it. Every school is chock full of gods, demons, aliens, giant robots, super scientists...

    What is your favorite Quote?

    "We plant roses, we breed chickens, and we eat candy - but before we eat candy, we must eat the kidneys of our enemies." - Muammar Quaddafi, as quoted in US News & World Report

    Poll: British Sitcoms vs American Sitcoms

    I'm an American, and in general I would say that the British sitcoms are better. There are of course exceptions, and my favorite comedies are from the US (Barney Miller, for example). But it may be that we all tend to be prejudiced against ourselves in this regard since in our own countries we...

    Oh Herro Escapist! What is your Avatar supposed to be?

    When I was a lad, I wondered why it was speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil. The news certainly didn't feel that way, and the edition of the Bible that said "Thou Shalt Commit Adultery" was incredibly popular (I think still holds the record for the most money paid for a Bible). So four...
