    Don't Stop Me Now: Doctor Who Hits Its Stride This Week

    I can't be the only one that thinks they all died on that train and that the beach they were on at the end was Paradise, right?

    Summarize the book, or book series, that you are currently reading

    In life (and, of course, in Liff), there are many common occurences, experiences and situations that we all know and recognise, but for which no words exist. Simultaneously, there are many thousands of words which spend their time doing absolutely nothing but sitting around on signposts...

    The Next Xbox will be called...

    As long as we're all wildly speculating anyway, I'm just gonna say that it will be called the Xbox 2, and the 360 will just have been a spin-off.

    Poll: There's something wrong with her.

    Don't be silly, there's something wrong with everyone. There is no such thing as "normal people", everybody's screwed up in some way and that's perfectly fine. That said, if the only thing that makes you think she's a "weirdo" is that she's interested in you, it sounds like you're just making...

    Poll: Do you think the Milgram Experiment was unethical?

    Well, obviously that's where the similarities end and it's a big difference, but that doesn't mean that you can't compare the two for the purpose of this study. Analogous doesn't mean "exactly the same in every aspect".

    Poll: Do you think the Milgram Experiment was unethical?

    I think that's exactly the point, the nazis did do experiments like this all the time, pretty much as you defined it (inflicting pain because somebody told you to for the interest of science). Most of what we know about burn wounds for example is because the nazis just lit a couple of...

    What is found under your bed

    If all goes well, nothing I keep under my bed will be "found".

    Poll: Would you eat in vitro meat?

    I wasn't going to comment on the "natural" thing at first since you obviously were just talking in context of food, but since someone else has gone for it now, I would just like to point out that "natural" also includes poisonous snakes, sulfur, funnel webs, rockslides and meteors, none of which...

    Poll: Will you buy an Xbox 720?

    Gods no, I would have to buy a television set :p Honestly, I still don't believe the always-online thing is actually going to happen, it just doesn't make any sense to me at all why they would do that. Even if they did want to use it as some form of DRM they could just as easily put the...

    Jimquisition: Why An Always-On DRM Console Would Be Dumb Dumb Dumb

    What I don't get is how a company like microsoft could actually believe this would be good for business, surely you would want as many people as possible to buy your console and the demographic of "people with good internet connections + the people without them" is bigger than "just the people...

    If you had to have sex with someone outside your sexual preferences

    Didn't have to think about this one for a second. Oh Ed, the sweet, sweet music we would make together...

    Poll: Would you eat in vitro meat?

    I think it's a little odd that the only yes-option in the poll only has taste as a requirement when there are a lot more questions surrounding the whole issue that we still have very little idea about. One would hope to think that things like nutritious value, economical viability of this as...
