    Do you enjoy your job?

    I notice almost no people working commercial jobs like marketing, finance and accounting (I generally put retail/ sales somewhere else in my head). Wonder if that's a trend on the escapist? I like my jobs, good co-workers and both within walking distance, with some intersting work now and then.

    Poll: Teen Shot dead after attempting to mug man

    Frankly the muggers decided to jump someone. In America making that decision involves realizing that the guy could well be armed, and legally, mentally and physically prepared to shoot on sight. It is near impossible they did not realize this. Arguments the guy was asking for it in that he had...

    Ok so Mech games... anyone still interested?

    Can someone clarify for me what mechwarrior is supposed to be like? I had two of them on the old xbox but something tells me they were nerfed versions of the computer series. Does it involve customization, group tactics and character progression normally?

    Mech Games

    i admit all this stuff about chrome 2 brings warm feelings. If only the damn thing had some real server support- like continuing new parts, changing the economy so cash isnt just for acheivement whoring, and maybe ensuring some types don't get overused ( i loved how it was SUPPOSED to work, but...

    Is gaming REALLY A text?

    it is a text- it has a story. whether or not it is a good text is a hard question. your in institutionalized education, and ultimatly it's up to the marker to decide whats right and what isn't . and chances are that marker is significantly older than you and their interest in englishs far...

    Ebert Re-Emphasizes That Games Will Never Be Art

    Having just aced an large unit of visual arts theory, his critique is the steamiest pile of shit i ever heard. Modern art chooses to define itself via interpretation. I agree, video games are often CRAPPY art (i emphasis the michael bayesqe call of duty 4) in the mainstream, but only because...

    Sometimes I wonder: Why not diplomacy?

    Making peace with the browns is ludicrous. It was important to send in our green people (who could not be yellow as they were still in their uniforms from fighting the reds) to take out the bad brown people. Yes we are shooting a lot of innocent brown people, but i think it's important to...

    Michael Bay- Not a (expletive) ?

    Odd thought- We all rip on michael bay for this completley idotic crap. i know people always suggest that the reviewers are snobby, but i knew when i saw it the dialogue was shite, the action expensive but choreographed like so much shit in a tornado. But it made a profit , dident it? I'm...

    Atheism/Depression/Meaning of Life/Nihilism

    " So, my girlfriend and I are both atheists, and we both have similar outlooks on life (i.e., there's no real 'purpose' to existence anymore than there is a purpose for a tree, beyond self-perpetuation and the survival of the gene). Whereas I view this in almost an absurdist and humored way...

    The average card.

    I dont really understand the whole deal in this. I pretty computer illertate, but what's the deal wiith computer graphic cards? surely the computer becomes obsolete by it's processor speed before it's graphic card? It's not really a n issue for me, i use An apple comp that came with a decent one...
