Yeah, it seems like people had a problem understanding how these things worked. They don't make you smarter, they simply keep you as smart. I could see older people benefiting from these exercises as math is not like riding a bike and you will forget it if you don't use it. I have also read that...

I have an uncle who used to play varsity football (or rugby, if you are European, I think) in High School, played it in college on a scholarship, and never missed a game when he moved out, getting all he could on paper view. He had boat loads of paraphernalia and trinkets relating to his...

I prefer a good mix like you get in Cyberpunk and Steampunk settings. Games like Dark Cloud 1 and 2, anything having to do with Shadowrun, I love all of that stuff. I don't know about you but if it has aliens and laser guns in it, I qualify it as Sci Fi. There is no such things as lasers and...

I am in my late twenties and have had tons of first dates but never a single second date so I guess yes and no. Initially I can draw a girl but then I start talking... Hopefully soul mates or for realz.

I knew a girl online from Sweden and she was a sweetheart. Outside of that I don't know much but you seem like nice enough people so you get a Yes from me. The good thing about Sweden is you don't get much in the news about them good or bad so you can make judgements based off individual...

It really depends on who attacks first and the details behind the world. If the EU goes crazy and Sweden shoots missiles into Montreal then I imagine the world would unite against them and crush them. Same thing would happen if the US bombed Paris for no good reason. If it is a war on equal...

This is a good example of one that people around my part of the country hold and that is that people from New York, California, and Texas think that they are the best states in the whole country. It is funny because they are largely consumer states and produce very little - they couldn't survive...

A catchy song, to be sure, but to say that War does nothing for the world is a bit short sighted. Thanks to war we have penecillin, GPS, rocketry, space travel and modern airplanes with the jet engines, armor which protects the police back at home and a great assortment of nonlethal weaponry in...

I am a strongly optimistic and a realist. Nothing is ever as bad as it seems and everything happens for a reason with all hardships neccesary to teach us lessons or make us stronger for coming hardships. Death is just a transition, the future looks brighter and brighter as we move towards a...

This is a good point too. I think an expansion and demystification of firearms would do America some good. My uncle is a police officer and has taken his kids to the firing range in order to instill in them a respect for guns and remove the mystery that will make them want to play with them. It...

Fixed that for you. Too add to my original point and stay on topic, I feel that banning guns is like applying a bandage to a rattlesnakebite and covering the puncture wounds. The same venom that caused the violence to begin with will still be beneath the surface and I certainly don't need a...

The argument is perfectly valid. It is too late. How would you propose taking all the guns back from a populace that has owned them for about 500 years or so? The logistics behind that undertaking would be truly mind boggling and not many Americans agree with you that it is neccesary. It is...

I found them extremely cute, to be honest. I am with the flood of lolicon/pedophilia afterwards though: now that was really creepy.

Where have you been looking? It may be a matter of where you hang out when not on your games.

I am glad I am not the only person who thought that when I read this story. She proposed to him? Wow, what a real man this guy must be... I mean c'mon...
