I was playing AC:Brotherhood and suddenly was confronted with a sex scene between a man and a woman. This grossly offended me, I do not care for blatant heterosexuality shoved in my face like that! They should've made an option in the menu to turn off this kind of heterosexual pandering. I don't care what straight people do in their bedroom but I don't want to ever have to watch it.

Finishing uni, moving away from loads of friends and having to go out into the real world and get a job but also not being able to because I'm doing a teacher training course but also might not be able to do that because I can't get the required three fucking days of work experience. Wow, that sentence had almost no punctuation

Heh, I was about to become aghast at that myself (I make a point of never commenting on someone's punctuation and spelling, it's colossally rude), especially when you mentioned training to be a teacher.
Hey, you know it didn't have the polish it otherwise would have so why worry? lol

A friend is in a similar situation looking for teaching hours.
Not fun to say the least!
Best of luck out there, man.

After getting out of the Army, everythings been just about gravy.

Nothing seems to be able to piss me off for once. My undying rage has died.

It's fantastic.

I unsubscribed from WoW and needed an MMO fix. Luckily, if you do enough shennanigans in the original Guild Wars, you get all kinds of rewards for when Guild Wars 2 comes out. So I shelled out 40-50 for the original and its expansions, in an attempt to get 30/50 reward points.

Unfortunately, by the time I reached 10 points, I experienced the soul crushing realization that Guild Wars I sucks. Not in the sense that it's different from WoW but just happens to be bad, it aggressively fails at everything WoW has perfected from a gameplay perspective.

It is now impossible for me to have any fun in this game, but I feel pot-committed to keep playing since I really have nothing else to play right now. That's the minimum of it without going into expletives (believe me when I say I'm toning down my venemous, frothing, blind-rage hatred for this game).

This is the thread where we ***** about things.

For me it's that infuriating IMP that dances after every escapist video advertising the publisher's club. YES escapist, we know there's a publisher's club, you don't need to advertise it after every. single. video.

Now it's your turn, ***** about something currently bothering the shit out of you.

You wait for the video to finish?

Anyway, I hate the captchas, and people who plug the Pub Club when we make threads like this. Nobody wants to join that hasn't already.

Moderator wrath incoming in 3...2...

...NEVER.

I am sorry, but the mods actually know my feelings on the subject and have not punished me for speaking my mind on these issues. If I didn't take a punishment then, why would I now? I'm allowed to not like captchas, just like anyone else.

Exactly, it's not against the rules to voice your opinion, it's against the rule to do it in an offensive way.

SHHHH!!! they'll hear you! D:

We hear everything.

OT: My internet connection. It's been hell trying to watch E3 live.

Well the Diablo 2 ladder reset in March so I lost all my good chars...
There is never anything on tv.
I need a drink but don't have anything.
My back hurts.
I can't find hot sauce that is hot enough.
The damn child-proof caps on medicine bottles.
I'm currently poor.
My front tires on my car are bad.
I still haven't played Portal 2.

I could do this aaaaaall day...

Witty response that would better be suited for a different thread.

I'm training to be an English teacher as well but don't worry, my grammar is the king of all grammar! Also nice avatar, my man, I've read that book like twelve times. You have good taste!

I have exams next week.

My sister yelling at me more often than usual. She's kind of a ***** normally, but she's into the eight month of her pregnancy and the parasite within her is wreaking havoc on her hormones, turning her in the dreaded Uber C**t. On the other hand, there is a good chance that her kid will be born on my birthday. I think that's kind of messed up, but strangely funny.

Right now, at this very moment, I agree so fucking much.

The low content rule. Look, I understand that there's a reason for it, but it still seems like a bullshitty rule. Just because I decide to type "yup" isn't gonna turn this place into fucking 4chan. I'm sorry, Escapist, but that one is really annoying me.

I once really only had "Yip" to say to a post, so I Enter'd down and added something like "Oh, and so I won't get modded for low content, I'm offering everyone who reads this a free hug and cookie. Insta-text!"

A mod quoted me, called me a smart-ass (Not in those exact words) and listed some kind of specific cookie.

Everything, as a citizen of the British Isles, it is my sworn duty to ***** and moan about anything, no matter how petty or trivial. But do nothing about, just piss and moan then get on with it, because "we don't want to cause a fuss, but hope someone else will"

Hang on there, fellow countryman, let me wade in to aid you with fish, chips and sarcasm!

Yeah, of course you will (See, sarcasm, I'm so British ^^)

Perhaps, but I'm purposely avoiding the numerous threads on gayness in games.

I could say the exact same about your avatar! Been getting into Green Lantern for the past year now, and it's brilliant. One of the finest comics I've read, particularly what Geoff Johns has been doing.
The big damn space opera of it all, the cosmic stakes, ancient alien technology- it has it all.
Then there's the original Han Solo- Hal Jordan! You should check out The Big Picture about Green Lantern if you haven't already.

Someone with excellent taste in hero books like yourself is bound to make a kick ass English teacher!

Are you me? You're me, aren't you? I've also been getting into Green Lantern for the past year and oh-my-fucking-wow! The stories Geoff Johns has been writing since '04 are the biggest and most epic (in scale, content, art, pacing, beauty) DC have ever done. Blackest Night was fantastic and Blackest Night: Green Lantern was even better. Last night I ordered the trade of Brightest Day Vol. 1 and can't wait to get my hands on it!
I watched the big picture yesterday and loved it. I've watched his 'Continanity' episode like five times, I love his issues surrounding comic books and I'd loved to do my own Escapist show on them, it'd be so much fun.
I am a little worried that, when I'm a teacher, I'll just waffle on about how the work of Henry James pales in comparison to Alan Moore and Grant Morrison...
Ooh! Have you read 52? Definitely the best thing DC have ever written. I've read the whole thing several times, it is truly mind-blowing

Good lord, that's creepy... I don't think I'm you, but you may just be me lol
But British, whereas I'm Irish. Mirror worlds! :O

52 is one of the finest things I've ever read- I considerate part of literature as a whole, not just confined to the comicbook genre.
The whole 52 saga is a shining example of what can be achieved in the medium using the supposedly tired super hero angles.
I'm a Batman fanatic, but I'd proudly wear one of the Green Rings any day!
Johns is a genius. I'd always heard about the Green Lantern, but I first encountered Kyle Raynor, then John Stewart in the Justice League cartoons (if you can call what Bruce Timm et al do merely cartoons).

I borrowed 52 off a mate of mine, but I think I'll start hunting down the volumes myself.
Haven't had a chance to read of Blackest Night or Blackest Night: GL yet, but I'm waiting so I can buy it rather than borrow it!
I've heard it's astonishing. My buddy may have ruined a slight part of War of The Green Lanterns for me, but that's also on the list!

So much to read... so little time!
I think that it's your duty to introduce kids to writers like that when they come of age! lol
