This is what I thought this topic was about, as in why do people keep making topics about "edgy" subjects like pedophilia, rape and other mega-uncouth behaviour. I guess I was pleasantly surprised. This forum, like most other forums, has several cliques that try to separate themselves from...

The reasons she gives when we pillow-talk are most likely "OH SO KJUUUUTE" bullshit, so I think she likes me because I'm always there and I'm willing to put up with her crap.

Just sent in a summer job app where I forgot to say for what period of time I was able to work and what position I was applying for. Good lord I feel like a mongoloid.

One of the blokes working on DX3 has been quoted saying that DX1 was "slow". Plus it's going to have cover-based stealth. Which just.. yeah, my hopes are low. If you want to replay Deus Ex 1 there are plenty of polish mods out there...

I don't think they were the only ones around, I just think they were the only ones the Reapers left traces of. The Collector abductions show that the reapers have the tech to remove people without leaving a trace, and considering how they pretty much had a few million years untill the next...

Thank you good sir! I remembered the name Brian Woods from somewhere, turns out we have The Local hardback, which she loved to bits. She also liked American Virgin, so I know she likes Cloonan's artstyle. I found the Demo trade, it's currently wrapped up and ready to be gifted. Thanks for all...

Here in Norway they're currently running The Biggest Loser: Couples Edition, and being the trash-tv junkie I am, I occasionally plunk myself down in front of it. It has the most shameless product placement of any show I've ever seen, ever. In my life. They do this thing where one of the...

I tried to get her to read Y, but she didn't give it a fair shot. It's one of my all time favourite comics. Just checked the bookshelf, Black Hole is in there. But! Your avatar did give me another idea, Dylan Moran is out with a new standup DVD and she loves that confused, shouty irishman...

My girlfriend's birthday is coming up and she's left me twisting in the wind by saying that she wants "a cool graphic novel". I have no idea what that means, seeing how I'm not very into her part of the comic-world. I'm an Alan More/Ennis fan who enjoys a fair bit of capes, commercialism and...

Hamilton is part of the new wave of Hard SF writers that write epic, big scope space operas. I don't know how to compare it to Dune, as that was always a sort of actiony politics in space sorta thing for me, but it's pretty similar to Foundation. I personally found The Reality Disfunction...

Sounds like a rotten pickle if I've ever had one, not being allowed into the common room pretty much excludes you from half the fun of boarding school. It also sounds like you're not very comfortable with confrontation, so tattling on the bully or trying to reason with her probably won't be an...

I'd make bullets that were really excitable. At first people would think they were cute, loading that hyperactive little bullet into the chamber while they're jammering on about how awesome it all is, or shooting that bullet and hearing it go "WHEEEEEEEEEEE!" into the distance. It wouldn't make...

I've got to disagree with you there, brother man. Being a housewife, au pair, professional babysitter or anything that has anything with raising a kid within a house is not a simple job. I'm not saying it's the worst job in the world either though, there's some massive downtime if you're the...

Not to derail the thread completely, but what's immoral about selling sexual favours for cash? I can get how being a drugdealer is immoral, you're actively pushing merchandise that ruins lives (won't somebody please think of the children?!?), same with being a pimp or a telemarketer, but selling...
