    Poll: The Experience Machine.

    You made this thread so you could destroy other peoples arguments. I did not know this at first. I did not know this because you disguised this thread as an honest question. I have been pointing this out. You either disagree with my assertion and or are confused. Because you tell me you do not...

    Poll: Why do you not have an avatar?

    Social unity. One day we will rise up and take this website by storm.

    Poll: The Experience Machine.

    Ok originally i was trying to tell you your question was flawed and suggest an alternative. I don't have a problem with whatever the experience machine was originally supposed to function as. However what you just said is not how you are using this thread.

    Poll: The Experience Machine.

    My problem with the question is that it is like the "If you could have one blank on a deserted island what would it be?". The question is actually asking what is your favorite blank not if your choice is sufficient to survive off of or build a means of escape. Similarly the way you set up this...

    Poll: The Experience Machine.

    The premise here is flawed. Eternal bliss is beyond our understanding and asking someone a question they cannot possibly understand does not produce real answers. A better question would be something like would you take a drug [or plug into a machine] that made you fell as happy as you've ever...

    Who's building a monopoly?

    Realistically a monopoly is when one business is big enough to stifle all other competition. I remember watching the CRTC hearings when bell was trying to acquire astral media. It gave me hope about Canadian politics to see those CRTC guys dismissing the threadbare arguments and time filler...

    Care to recommend me some more Indie Games?

    Antichamber. I got more time out of that than Portal 2 and didn't feel the same puzzle burnout i was having towards the end of portal. EDIT: Argh just saw your post Gurgleflob

    Private Cybercrime Outfit Exposes Chinese Hackers

    There were different reasons for all those wars, i am iffy on your American civil war. Anyways i have always wondered if a modern World War would be LESS devastating because of nuclear weapons.

    Morality of banning based on skill.

    I think this thread has more to do with bad game design than community interaction. Though it is funny to read and see how many MLGPr0z come out of the woodwork.

    Safety videos are terrifying

    Isn't the point of the ad how much it would suck if there were landmines in America like there are in other countries. Though how one could be in a soccer field is idiotic, toxic waste on the other hand...... well just ask Love Canal. Also is anyone else kinda pissed off that when an...

    I might have missed something here but i don't understand "enough resources". Enough resources for what?

    Great must-see movies

    Id recommend the 13th warrior if you get tired of watching the heavy dramas or have already seen all the other action movies listed. Its just good old hacking and slashing with a solid story.

    When your favorite series derails

    For me Farcry's multiplayer was a hidden gem when i picked it up for the xbox360. The community made it into a plethora of great game modes and user created maps completely independent of the developers original intent. Farcry 2 had some stupid decisions made for it: restrictions made to the...

    Retail jobs: the dumbest customer question you've been asked?

    I probably have better stories but the one i remember the most from working at the grocery was a couple asking what the expiry date was on the cases of soda. I never knew such a thing existed and i think about it every time i visit a certain relative and drink a can that's been sitting in the...
