If The Escapist Taught You One Thing...

[Raikazu]

it's that nobody how opinionated you are, there's always somebody worse.

 

[Iconsting]

Good to know that someone else is "Worse" about making effective use of their freedom of speech.

And there's no sentence that can't be halved and used as a post.

Seriously? Didn't you know that already? There's always a bigger asshole than you, and always someone better.

No matter how many idiots feel the need to stick their oars into something they've avoided actually learning anything about, there will still be people who stick it out and use actual facts and reason.

There is A LOT more to gaming than I thought.

I considered myself Hardcore before I came here.
Now I don't even dare call myself Casual in comparison.

 

[The Bucket]

Its cool to hate on turns of phrase that have been in use for years i.e. "Am I the only one?"

They aren't suggesting they are the only one, its a perfectly acceptable exaggeration or whatever you call it.

...it's that arrogant white teenage atheists aren't just common; on the internet, they're the norm. And that more often than not, the only thing separating me from them is that I keep my contempt to myself.

 

[SammiYin]

It's that people get very upset when you disagree with their opinion...
Also that bandwagons are fun.

 

[Timberwolf0924]

that English chaps living in Austrilia are botherd people..

 

[Mr Pantomime]

That I am never the only one. Just when I thought I was special.

 

[Insideout Ink Demon]

that large opening posts get skimmed over and the point missed. glad you kept yours short

 

[otakon17]

That no one can surround an Akrid like Bernie ....

 

[Worgen]

that I really fucken hate captcha shit, I swear that crap has started popping up every other post, its a wonder I keep on this stupid site if they keep that crap up

 

[Guffe]

... That there actually are other people than me who don't always need the other guy to type perfectly as long as you understand what they're trying to say!

 

[pspman45]

Its that If you have an opinion, then keep it to yourself, as some prick out there feels it necessary to explain in vivid detail why you are wrong, even though by definition, an opinion can not be wrong

 

[Cracker3011]

Its that the internet is just better.

 

[Daveman]

that the most irrelevant and tiresome and egocentric piece of information ever is what you would do if the character from the last game you had played suddenly appeared and wanted to sex you up/beat the crap out of you/challenge you to a game of cricket/eat some of your favourite cheese/fight the character from the game you played before that.

 

[blue heartless]

... it's that yelling into your DS Lite microphone in a crowded New York street can get you nominated for President of a Nintendo fan club.

 

[Racecarlock]

That mass effect fans are really easy to piss off. Seriously, mention mass effect 3 and streamlining in the same fucking paragraph, and they're all like "OMG THEY'RE TURNING IT INTO A GENERIC DUMB HALO and/or GEARS OF WAR SHOOTER AND THEY'RE REMOVING EVERYTHING THAT EVER MADE IT COMPLEX GAAAAAAAAH!". Seriously people, there are what, two trailers out and because of a few mentions of streamlining you're ready to dismiss it as a gears of war clone? They're just shooting sections. It's not a big deal.

 

[flaviok79]

That the gamer community shouldn't be ashamed of their hobby, since it is such a pervasive and engaging form of entertainment.
