    Jimquisition: Gamer Guys

    I found this was quite good, but taking a juxtaposing scenario to bring light to the mediocrity of "dying nerd culture" and "hate to girl gamers" made it a little difficult to follow; I found myself getting a bit muddled up when you flipped from one topic to another at very short notice.

    So, my family is homophobic.

    Speaking as someone in his late teens I can fully understand why people hate teenagers. The others not so much.

    Bronies out there. why do you like MLP

    I saw of the captioned fan pictures around, found them quite amusing. Had heard some of the songs and thought they were ok. Had some time to kill over easter, started watching the show. Enjoyed it. Kept watching the show.

    Hundreds of thousands may lose internet in July

    Why, is BT taking over providing for the UK? Oh snap. Also; Doesn't seem like a bad idea, just seems like poor execution.

    Do many Westerners really dislike Japanese games for such shallow reasons as "anime"?

    People are casually racist. Get used to it.

    Games you know are Awful, but you remember something about them fondly

    Black ops (inb4 y u hate COD games - shooters just aren't my thing anyway) Playing search and destroy with my brother (we were on the same console) and some of his friends (6 people in the party). I'm the last person alive in first round for my team. I win - get a clutch 3 man grenade, and...

    Multiplayer : do you hold back ?

    Depends on the context. In LoL, if I concentrate on what I'm doing then I can do better. I don't know if you can call that holding back though.

    PS1 - PSX RPG's worth playing?

    I enjoyed Legend of Legaia, but when I realised that I'd gone all the way through the game and never picked up that staple of the JRPG, the point card, right at the beginning, and couldnt beat the final boss as a result, I was greatly dissapointed. My verdict: Give it a shot but find out where...

    Notch says 'If you can't afford Minecraft, just pirate it'.

    "If you can't" =/= "If you dont want to pay". Know the difference.

    15-year old Stabs Bully 11 Times at Bus Stop, Gets Away With It

    If he needed to bring a knife do you honestly think he would have been able to physically fight him off - bringing a bat to a fight may as well be giving the bully another weapon. And that it had obviously been long enough term for him to know this. I have no sympathy for the bully, but I'm...

    Did you play Rayman Origins?

    I bought it for my brother (who is 17) and he loved it, was quite a challenging and fun 2D sidescroller, and it's been so long since i played another rayman that I couldn't tell you if it holds true to the style, but he certainly enjoyed it. Worth the investment if you havn't got it but are...

    I'm a vegan and I come in peace...

    I can't even tell whether you're argueing for or against here ._. But my morals aren't restrictive to animals if that's what you're getting at? And you did read my original post right? I do eat meat, it's just i prefer not to. It was like sentence 2. Huh, that was actually brought up in...

    I'm a vegan and I come in peace...

    I dunno, I've been outsmarted by a cat many's a time and I'm studying medicine in university now. Speaking as a lax vegetarian (i.e. I don't honestly care but I generally eat vegetarian unless it's inconvenient, just don't like the taste of meat) I do have quite a high moral high-ground on...
