I think it works, so long as you can accept that the Doctor found the afterword before he decided to go on a rescue trip. Consider: He very nearly saw them die right after he promised that would never happen to Brian, and then he finds out they're safe and happy? Good end, all things considered...

Christmas starts, at it's very earliest, the day after Thanksgiving. It runs, at it's very latest, to January 6th.

The Milkman's mind in Psychonauts is a long string of fetch quests, each requiring a specific item to get past a specific G-Man. I forgive it because the writing is great and the G-Men are hilarious, but it is likely the longest string of fetch quests I have ever seen.

It's not a proverb, it's a Koan: A question built to have no answer, where the purpose is to get you to accept that there is no answer and that the question is ridiculous. There are hundreds of examples of these; also quite common is "What is the sound of one hand clapping?" The point is not to...

"You're nazis!" "Nein we're not."

It's impossible to know when a specific person and their skills will be needed, and it's almost always in your best interest to not make enemies as you never know who has the time, ability, or resources to scrrew whatever you're plotting. So it's almost always in your best interest to treat...

Not only do people use the right to free speech as an excuse to spout hateful, useless, stupid tripe in inapropriate places and times, but people use other amendments and laws to impinge on our right to free speech! In any case, the issue is easily resolved by remembering that your right to...

I'd ike to point out that unless you are playing LAN there's little way to tell what gender, race, religion, geographic location, or sexual prefrence a person actually has. Even with mics, it can be a hard call. If it's a LAN party it's likley to be people you know, and you're more likely to...

Maths. All of them, always.

Insta-ramen if I'm feeling cheap, home-made pasta for taste.

Was it just me, or did Yatzhee explicitly state that his purpose was to piss all over games? It's not particularly surprising, and I'd even call it a nessecity, but to outright state it like that came as a bit of a surprise.

You're almost right except for the part where you're not. Being an accountant isn't so much the stereotype so much as the frugality and (depending who you ask, of course) greed that is more often assoicated with it. Add to that a stereotypical manner of speech and appearance and it becomes more...

This is not a fair because there are certain stereotypes that are well known and prevalent. The crow plays off of many common stereotypes of the time that are still recognizable even today. And if they were trying to portray or parody a specific group of people through animals then the best way...

I think they do, not that it matters. They tend to consult one of the young'uns regarding game purchases. Usually next to the ESRB letter there's a list. That list describes in the vaguest terms possible what earned it that rating. It's stuff like "Mild Blood", "Fantasy/Cartoon Violence"...

The E is a logo, not a mascot. Mascots tend to be people, animals, or some manner of character in general. And not "character" like letter you wise-mouths. There is a great deal more on this site than ZP, and regardless of it's contributions to the site it should not be the only thing...
