    Nintendo is Dooooooooooomed: Only sells 500k Wiis on Black Friday + 3DS up 325%

    Seriously? Nintendo has been in the hand-held market for ages now. Why would they suddenly abandon that, especially when technology is getting better and allowing them to put more power into smaller pieces of hardware. They have much more to gain by continuing to make their own platforms AND...

    Annoying Video Game Quotes Forever Etched into your Memory

    "This is the way!" and "Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality!"

    Women's rights

    I think there are a couple things going on here. (And I'm not going to bother with the use of the wolf/sheep idiom because I think evilthecat and bloatedguppy have done a fine job summarizing the issues with it, but the back and forth argument isn't making any headway) There are misandrists...

    What's on your 'to get' list?

    Diablo III (plus a new gaming mouse) Kid Icarus The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Cave Story 3D That's about it for now, but I'll probably buy all the other 3DS first party titles at some point. I think I'm going to give it a year or so though. I have way too many games that I...

    Have you heard of a "Homosexual Therapist?"

    It bugs me when people keep treating sexuality as a binary thing. It makes so much more sense (as in, it accounts for all the people who are exceptions-to-the-rule, which there are an awful lot of) if you view sexuality as a spectrum. Some people are extreme-straight, and could never be...

    Going topless is overrated

    Usually overrated. Until it's like 40 degrees Celcius. On a hot day, I'd love to go topless. And I usually do, if I'm at home for the day. It's legal for women to go topless in public where I am, but I've never done it because of how over-sexualized boobs are, and how much attention it...

    How is 2011 can we have these toys for girls?

    I agree. That's downright awful. When I have kids, I'm just going to buy them toys that look fun, regardless of their gender and regardless of the gender that the toy is marketed for. It is absolutely something kids pick up on. Maybe they don't read the words "Her first". But they see the...

    Have we forgotten how to be ladies and gentlemen?

    I'm bothered by the sentiment that "women who dress slutty deserve to be treated as such". Even IF all women who dressed "slutty" were sexually promiscuous or whatever, why don't they deserve the same respect as a chaste woman? Seriously. Why is a woman's worth diminished by her sexual...

    How to please a girl, non-pysically.

    I was really happy the other day when my boyfriend made me a magic deck. Blue was the only colour I hadn't really touched, and I mentioned that I was thinking of getting into it but needed to get some blue cards first... Later that week he gave me a bunch of his blue cards, but he didn't...

    The last boss you killed now runs your country.

    Ganon. Ganon as Prime Minister of Canada... Better than Harper, I guess. =P

    Isolation or instability?

    Go for it! Sometimes things will set you off, and sometimes you'll lose control... It happens to everybody. All you have to do in those situations is just take a deep breath and take a little alone time to get your bearings again. But I'd say get out there and get to know some people. I used...

    Possible relationship problem?

    It's kinda hard to say, not knowing her or any of the people involved. I'm a girl with a lot of guy friends, and we make sexual jokes at eachother all the time, but I'm not planning on hooking up with any of them. But then, it's not a huge issue for my boyfriend anyway, because we live together...

    Games you admit playing on easy.

    Starcraft II, towards the end. I just wanted to finish the story, so I put it on easy and cruised through it. And Dragon Age (still not finished though). I love the story and the world and stuff, but I'm not a huge fan of the gameplay yet. Maybe I just need to get further in to enjoy it.

    Reviewing Escapist magazine

    I love Extra Credits, Moviebob, Zero Punctuation, and LRR. I wasn't too keen on Lisa Foilies, and I dislike Jimquisition. And the forums are ok. =P Hah, I'm guilty of bandwagoning, at least when it comes to my avatar. I mean, I do legitimately like MLP, but I only decided to get an...

    Lamest/Worst way to beat the bad guys.

    OT: I thought the end of War of the Worlds (the book anyway... I don't remember the movie very well) really said something about humanity, and how small we are compared to the rest of the universe. I mean... These giant alien things come down, and humanity tries to fight them... we give it...
