    Am I Bipolar?

    You sir do not sound bipolar. And since you're only 13, you shouldn't worry about mental disorders either. Yes, they do pop up in kids, but they also spontaneously remiss quite often. This is mainly because the brain and body are changing a lot, and rapidly. Things settle down when you get...

    Video Games as a "Murder Simulator"

    Alrighty, firstly video games have the same problem violence on TV always had. Both desensitize you to it. Does this mean that you see somebody stabbed on TV, or stabbed in a game will make you a killer? Hell no. Being able to identify weapons, and being able to actually use them competently...

    Would a zombie actually be possible?

    Theres actually a fungus that makes zombie ants. It basically causes the ant to want to climb as high as it can, and the ant dies there. Then the fungus breaks out of the ant's skull and releases spores, infecting more ants. There are plenty of natural examples of stuff happening like this in...

    Modern Warfare 2 Players Log 200,000 Gameplay Years

    While those numbers are quite high, I'd like to point out that the collective time spent playing MW2, likely a fair portion of that is kids/teenagers who got their hands on the game despite its rating, the ones that have way too much time on their hands to play MW2, and jack the stats up.

    Poll: Do you think Pedphilia/Ephebophilia (Sexual Attraction to Minors) is Genetic?

    Alrighty. As far as I'm aware, there is little evidence pointing to a genetic cause of homosexuality, as well as pedophilia, no one is really sure why either arises. A plausible theory I heard of was that it might be due to teratogenic activity during pregnancy, though what and how that causes...

    Poll: Do you have a girlfriend?

    I feel your pain. Its hard sometimes, but I find forcing myself to talk to people really helps. It gets easier over time, I joined a few student groups when I went to uni. Helped to force me to do that.

    You get one weapon....

    Since a lot of people aren't technically including weapons, and assuming that any weapon can hurt deamons... Well, I'd go with the Cybran ACU from SupCom Forged Alliance. Not only can it mount a laser that kills 95% of everything you can build, it can cloak, and build everything at the fastest...

    I give up! This computer is the most unwillingy piece of...

    It actually kind of does sound like a memory issue, rather, its having trouble putting things into memory, failing it and saying the file is corrupt instead. If its ram, try http://www.memtest86.com/ It will test your RAM, and will usually come up with something. It did come up with nothing...

    If you're on a deserted island....and couldn't leave....

    Best way I can think of... Assuming the island is NOT in the middle of the ocean, ie off the coast of a continent, you can generally cross this fairly easily, just need to explore a bit. So best thing, even if its the cartoon island with the single palm tree, an axe and somebody that knows how...

    What Do You Think Was The Best Weapon in Shooter History?

    Gonna go with a few. Not really a weapon, but tanks. As Yahtzee says "Spam tanks and steamroll the map and hope the objective is something that dies along the way" -Only in FPS, you have your team do this, and hope the enemy doesn't counter spam Anti tank rockets... This works surprisingly well...

    Your kickass one-liner.

    Hah, I so rarely actually do the finishing, I play too many team games in the "support" role... Closest thing for me would be "Had enough? No? Your loss." -STAB/BANG/sound effect that indicates that something has happened that will insure your death.- Kind of the cold thing with this, is...

    Age of Empires 3, Empire Total War, or Battlestations: Pacific, whichever fits my current mood.

    The Sydney Funnel Web: Unfair

    Thankfully, I live in Northern Alberta. We have a lake here. It doesn't thaw completely until June. Its not tolerably warm until late July/Early August. It starts to get cold again usually mid September. At some point in the past 50 years, we have had snow present at some point on every single...
