An American study? It wasn't, like, anybody in particular, America in general ran a research study on 130,000 gamers. Citations, please? I wonder what they all would think of this. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmwB-yz7PxM] http://www.zombietime.com/fraud/ambulance/...

Debate is a form of arguing. [http://www.thefreedictionary.com/argue] Argument [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument] is unfairly maligned because many people don't fully understand how to use proper rhetoric in discussions, and get angry and unreasonable when they have trouble coming to an...

Arguing is not bad. In fact, debate and argument are essentially the same thing. I think the word you want is "bickering".

I used to begrudgingly think this about a lot of the modern punk rock-ish music my sister listens to, until last Saturday night when I had a sort of epiphany. She was driving me home after a night of gaming at the local hobby store and playing some generic crap on the radio. I listened really...

I feel a strong compulsion to rant whenever I hear someone mention katanas. I hate how some people worship them and everything else Japanese as being God's gift to man. It really pissed me off when the ninja guy on the ninja versus Spartan episode of Deadliest Warrior was talking about how...

Godendag! [http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f31/SlowShootinPete/goodday.jpg] That's Flemish for good day. An especially good day if you happened to be a Flemish peasant facing off against a French knight at the Battle of the Golden Spur. Guess who won that battle?

I like your style. The best offence is a good defense [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_suit], right?

Should have pounded the guy in the nuts. That was practically sexual assault, if you ask me. As for the girls, turning around and sternly telling them to please piss off may have done the job.

That has to be from The Godfather. Part 2, maybe?

... Yeah, you have me there. I shouldn't have been so absolute with my first post. It's still selfish, and doesn't seem right to me, but I can't fault you for feeling that way. They get all their ideas from crazy hobos, I'll bet.

Well, at least you're have something to watch for the next few months. Needing to watch 7 years'-worth of TV just to understand what the hell is going on...

People don't do well when they have absolutely no money. Saving up for retirement, the most critical asset that would be lost, takes a long time. Assuming they have decently paying jobs, short-term they might bounce back, but the old timers have probably just lost their futures. This is...

Material goods are closely tied to health and success, which is why Mexicans keep trying to hop the US border. Out of curiousity, what is it about your family that would give you reason to not die for them?
