    Alright everyone, whip out your d*cks

    And to think I thought I'd be excluded from this conversation :U I play the wondrous game of Cardfight Vanguard (FINAL TUUUUUUUUURN!!!) which I will give brownie points to those that know it. I believe it was created by the same guy who made Yu-Gi-Oh and it's basically a more balanced version...

    How has the internet affected you as a person?

    It reinforced my crippling insecurities. Actually I think the internet created my crippling insecurities :\

    Kansas may halt cursive education

    B-But if they get rid of cursive no one in Kansas can take the SAT! Seriously it was kind of awful/ hilarious seeing a room full of juniors (myself included) struggle to remember our cursive to write the "I will not cheat yadda yadda" before we started the test. Of course they couldn't...

    Your parents + tech = Comedy gold

    Something happened to my mom's browser while I was in another state. When I get back my mom complained that her email (from the school district she works at) was too small to read. We're about to go out shopping for back-to-school clothes (aka the same pair of jeans x4) when I overhear her...

    You are playing Pokémon and a Wild Hipster appears! What do you do?

    I'd use earthquake. Hipsters usually go underground. :3

    Doom makes me sick. No, it's not because of the violence.

    I basically can't play a majority of 1st person games. Half Life? Lasted ten minutes before I had to lie down for an hour. Minecraft? Half hour intervals, but anything above that and my head would need to rest on my keyboard. Skyrim? Actually that one is fine for some reason. Portal...

    Most stupid personal question you've been asked?

    I would say "Are you a boy or a girl?" if people would actually ask me that instead of assuming I'm male. >| Although I occasionally get the "Yes, ssssss?" when I'm at a restaurant because the waiter caught themselves almost saying sir before confirming my gender. Although I'm starting to...

    Please let Pokemon gracefully exit.

    Pokemon has a very special place in my heart. Crystal was my first video game ever and I only became the gamer I am today because of pokemon. I get the nostalgia, my childhood was basically revolved around Pokemon (with Yu-Gi-Oh thrown in for good measure) which made me love Black/White even...

    We should forgive Bioware.

    I'm the type of person who likes to play rouge so I'm one of the few who found the combat in DA2 much more enjoyable than DA:O. I hear people complain that the story is a let down from the saving the world story in Origins, but I found it interesting in it's own way. DA2 is delving deeper into...

    The oldest game you still play to this day?

    Pokemon Crystal (2001 I believe) because I got bored and decided to nuzlocke it. This was actually my first video game ever and I've been playing it on the GameCube GBA player thingy.

    The Portrayal of Men and Masculinity in Video Games

    I can't believe there's a gender roles thread that isn't comprised of a million people arguing. Anyways, while I will admit that I'm more prone to dissecting female stereotypes in games I've found the "grizzled badass" trope is turning up more and more. There's nothing wrong with having a...

    If you lived in the Pokemon world what would you do?

    I wouldn't aim to be the champion, but I would like to make a name for myself. I'd be a cross between a trainer and a coordinator; my battles would be flashy and unique. I'd like to compete in the tournament (if we're going by the anime canon. If not then I'd just skip it) but I wouldn't aim at...

    Cosplay

    I went as HG/SS Morty along with my friend who went as HG/SS Bugsy at Anime Matsuri. She did a lot of legwork on both of our costumes (since I can't sew or style wigs) but I did most of the paper mache and painting. I'm not even going to pretend I know how to correctly post pics -_-

    The World of Osvar (Sign-up: Open)

    Heh, it's a tad bit long, I apologize but I only realized that about 2/3s the way through. Tl;dr Mace's mom is a whore, she skipped town, met a half orc, learned more on how to fight (especially with weapons), and once he died she left the other town and began adventuring for hire. Inventory...

    GameStop Says The Last Guardian is Canceled; Sony Says No - UPDATED

    HaHA! I freaking knew it! Gamestop called me today and I was so pissed but I decided to hang on to my preorder. Real glad I did too. Man, this made my day! C:
