    So I just got Dark Souls

    Death is a slap on the wrist. You only lose your souls (Which are easily farmable) and humanity (also easily farmable). Sure, it sucks to lose your souls before you can spend them, but you're still learning how to deal with enemies, which is far more valuable. Assuming you don't give up, you'll...

    Historical "facts" and popular representations of histrical figures that are wrong

    You know how everyone thinks that spinach has tonnes of protein? Almost as much as red meat? Well, this comes from the fact that they put a zero on the end of the report of how much protein it had. By accident.

    Games you are ridicoulusly good at.

    Sonic Battle. I was so good that I considered fighting 3 copies of my ultra character a relaxing challenge. I'm also really good at specific parts of DMC4. I'm about the level of the second part of the video (Against that enemy). I can't replicate the first part unless I'm using Dante...

    Weight loss advice.

    Get liposuction. I'm not even kidding. What occurs is that when you lose weight, the cells you have are losing fat. This feels like shit, because you're actually starving yourself. What occurs when you gain weight, however, is that you make new cells to contain the fat that your body stores...

    What the scientific laws and stuff actually mean.

    Just to clear this up, are you using the colloquial terms or scientific? Because I was arguing as if you had used the scientific meaning, not the common one. If you mean hypothesis (Or the colloquial theory) then I have to agree with you. I was simply pointing out that it is literally...

    What the scientific laws and stuff actually mean.

    Yeah, I'll deal with this part first. No. Evolution (Or natural selection, if that's your taste) is fact, it can be replicated in a lab, or observed. (Google "Observed examples of speciation", "ring species" or PM me and I'll search for more.) Also, what do you mean by we can't comprehend it? I...

    What the scientific laws and stuff actually mean.

    So, I was browsing the escapist forums, and happened to stumble across the South Korea has banned evolution from school books [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.378097-So-South-Korea-has-banned-evolution-from-school-books] thread. Now, being mildly curious, I clicked on it, and...

    Trailers: DmC: Devil May Cry - E3 Trailer

    What would your coat of arms be?

    My coat of arms would be a Cock and a Swallow. That way, if I'm roleplaying anything, I can shout "Follow the Cock and Swallow!" They'll all be too busy laughing to defend themselves.

    Poll: Do you believe in Magic?

    No. Why? If this 'magic' can be observed, that means we can study it. When we understand it, it becomes part of science. The first scientists were originally searching for gods or magic.

    What's the weirdest thing you've ever heard someone say IRL?

    "If you don't believe in god because you can't see him, why do you believe in gravity, 'cos you can't see it." 'Drops pen onto table.' "I can't see gravity."
