    Thoughts on Mass Effect 3 Demo

    I googled this but I can't find anything... Were the demos different for different platforms? I've heard of the 'huge' spoiler on the mars mission, but I didn't play this on the PC.

    Do you feel bad about "the starving kids in Africa" ?

    Well said! And I don't know much about politics but no matter how much aid they get, I don't think anything will change until they see political change. I've been on an expedition to Zambia, and I've heard stories of food aid not helping. For instance, in one of the towns, a farmer had...

    Poll: You're pregnant. What do you do?

    You're male, you are speaking of something you will never experience. You can't comment on the 'physical and mental trauma' that a woman goes through, and how can you say that that is greater than the physical and mental trauma that a woman would under go if she were to have a child? How can...

    Worst/Most irritating medical condition you've ever had?

    IBS and lactose intolerance. I LOVE cheese as much as any other borderline sane person, but now I can't have any at all or embarrassment ensues, as with all dairy. And now both curry and fish is off the table too. And this makes it really hard to buy a sandwich, especially when I don't eat...

    Asking a girl's dad for permission to go out with his daughter

    I'd find it weird if some body asked my dad his permission if they could date me. I don't think it proves that the male can protect you, they're just asking a question that reeks of ownership, like passing off the daughter on to someone else. I am my onw person, and shall decide who I shall...

    Baa Ba Black sheep being changed due to racism

    I went to school with a girl who worked with young disabled children, and she was told that to be p.c they were supposed to use 'rainbow' instead of 'black', I wasn't plucking assumptions out of thin air. She was also told to use the word 'special' in reference to the children, and never to...

    So this one's for the Brits, I have just come home from university for a week to find that the HDMI port on my PS3 is broken, a problem which could have been solved ages ago but my Mother decided to keep the knowledge to herself :/ Where can I get it fixed? I'm not too keen on the idea of...

    Underage pregnancy in the UK

    There are so many teen mummies in my village, and I don't understand it :/ Especially since it's in wales and almost everything on NHS is free, so there's no excuse for like not even being on the pill if you're going to be a slag, because tbh, most people aren't in long term relationships...

    What age should you have to be to have kids?

    I want to say age doens't matter maturity does, but... I really do feel that no matter how mature you are you need to experience life and let yourself have messed up boozey nights and make mistakes and be an all round general idiot and child fist before you have your own. And financial...
