Maybe Sprites was Alien creatures that wanted to help the protagonist because they wasn't brainwashed/controlled by the Combine Race.Barbas said:

Hoods: are a symbol of the Assassin order. They're also practical. Rule number one for criminals, hide your face.
The strength of currency: Money is merely bits of paper. Its value lies solely in perception, i.e. it's only worth what we think it's worth. Perception is subjective and malleable.
Unarmed vs Harmless: There is basically no such thing as harmless. Anything bigger than a baby can harm you somehow. Ask a medical worker who deals with severely deranged children.
Clean computer: Isopropyl alcohol. Apply with rag or Q-tip.
Fix sleep cycle: I fix mine by shorting myself. A couple nights of 5 hours suffices to make me tired enough to go to bed early, i.e. on time.
Why does it always rain on you: Because god hates you.
What should you do that you probably don't: Read. Not enough people read books anymore.
Q: What's the scariest thing you've ever seen? I need inspiration for a horror game I'm going to run for some friends.

When I was younger, I watched a Documentary movie about drugs and how the people could transfer them without get caught.Johnny Impact said:
At some point a specific person tell a story a woman who kill her own baby, so the other members of a cartel pull out the baby's organs to put the drugs.
Of course at the same time while I was hearing this story, the movie show two surgeons open THIS SPECIFIC BABY and pull out the drugs.
Dude, this was a f*cking scar of life for me. Of course that I saw it was likely fake, but it was VERY realistic, and of course the story was true.
Q:A specific question for the Adventure Time Fans [like myself]:
I just found this specific image below.
Do you want to believe in this kind of theory?

Wait, what? I thought they were slave like us in Half-Life 2.Silvanus said:
Also for Nihilanthe......is there a possibility to be in reality an Combine Advisor?
Like, Combine never killed all the Nihilanthe's Race and made them the Combine Advisors.
If you see a image of a Larva of a Combine Advisor, the have some similarities:
The Nihilanth does mutter that "we are their slaves", but it's quite ambiguous really: "we" could refer to the Nihilanth's race, or it could be Freeman and the Nihilanth; "they" could be the Combine, or it could be the G-Man and his employers, whoever they are.SweetShark said:
Marc Laidlaw has confirmed that that particular Nihilanth was never captured by the Combine, but some of his predecessors might have been;

Uh... Skirts... Dresses... Do high heels count? Other than that, anything that can compliment my legs and butt, especially my legs...Kaleion said:
I think I have the back for it... But, I might need a second opinion from someone I know in my local area...
That's quite all right...
Well, I did have a lot of female friend who would wear a lot of pretty clothes... Seems legit...
Well, it depends on what they consider to be a friend... To some, it's just happens upon first interaction and nothing else afterwards... Other times, it gradually happens to the point that no one has to state the obvious... In my opinion, the people you're referring to probably see themselves hanging out with you in the future even if that may never happen or they see themselves as friends with everyone until someone, preferably you in this situation, corrects them...Kaleion said:
So, start small and work from there... That makes sense...2HF said:
Another [Random] Question: If a[nother] comedian right now was given their own slice-of-life subversive sitcom series that realistically exaggerated their current life, who should be given that opportunity?
Answer: As a long-time fan, I can't agree with that theory considering that was only a one-time deal... and no practical evidence has proven how in a show filled to the gills with continuity, this was one of the things that ended up going back to the "status quo", per se...SweetShark said:Q:A specific question for the Adventure Time Fans [like myself]:

Question: How is the question "If a tree falls and no one is around, does it make a sound?" a trick question?
It's not really a trick question exactly; it's a thought experiment. The intention is to prompt people to question whether "sound" is the vibration itself, or whether it's the sensation of hearing it. If the former, then it does, but if the latter, then it doesn't.FPLOON said:

Now I feel like the only thing that's missing is the word "theory" somewhere... Not sure why, though...Silvanus said:
Anyway, in terms of copyright, why does it still exist for those that have long sense passed away and have no physical way of retrieving their revenue? Or does this only extend to those born/lived in the 20th Century as well as the family members related to the deceased in question?
So, shall we discuss the propaganda of Kang and the effects it would have on the rise of Japanese supremency and the general weakening of Chinese soveriegnty in the face of the European powers and how it would be a factor leading in the historical manipulation used by the Republican revolution under Puyi?Aelinsaar said:
Everyone has areas they know and don't know. When someone is starting to glaze over, it's because you have done a poor job either explaining it, or figuring out that the person just doesn't care. If you're the person who is trying to push their interests onto another person, they will lose interest.
Have you, for example, sat down with a fanboy? And ALL they can talk about is their personal interest? Like LoL? And they won't shut up? And you're too polite to tell them to shut up, and they won't take the hint?
The eyes glazing over is them being too polite to tell you to shut up and hoping you'll figure it out.

Also, the Ju-On films that would later inspire the Grudge. They were pretty good.
Remember; sex and death. Don't just outright say it, but allude to it constantly. Make them feel turned on, and grossed out. Perhaps put some candles in the background, and some odd music turned low. Have them eat strange food. Make sure the lights are turned low enough to add atmosphere, but high enough they can see the paper. Move about. Shout. Scream. Get in their face. Make them uncomfortable.
