    Smacking Your Child.

    The problem is that the examples you give aren't really effective. More often then not the kids will whine and complain and cry and the parents will give in, which just lets the kids know that they can do whatever they want and there parents won't do anything. Now obviously this isn't true for...

    Poll: Stannis vs. Daenerys - Better claim?

    Yeah i agree with the people that said that those with the power have the right to the throne. If you don't have the power to conquer the throne for yourself and subjugate your rivals then you really don't have a right to the throne. in otherwords everyone and no one has the right to the throne.

    Unpopular Opinions

    Same minus the Jar Jar Binks, though i don't mind him. If it didn't have star wars in the title it wouldn't have been considered a bad film :(

    Your Favorite Character Archetypes

    The bartender in the dingy little bar in the side street back alley that used to be a famous adventurer or an old god, or some other super powerful person that's retired but helps the protagonist anyway. My favorite archtype character, i just forget the word to describe the above.

    Are season passes a bad sign in games?

    I think the idea of season pass is interesting and not horrible. I think the major problem is the way that the companies approach dlc as being a way of skimping on the main game. if companies put out full games and then released dlc as they are supposed to be released, i.e. more content...

    Quotes that just stick with you

    "YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!" -Illidan ....sorry that popped into my head and i felt it had to be said. On a more serious note: "If you pray for courage do you think God grants you courage or the opportunity to be courageous?" -God, Even Almighty. That might be more of a paraphrase but...

    REPORT: Leaked Document Reveals Police Plan to Kill African-Americans

    Yeah the news is rather finicky about what they want to write on. At any rate its good to see that not every incident is swept under the rug, it gives me a little hope that we can still come out of this dark little pit.

    REPORT: Leaked Document Reveals Police Plan to Kill African-Americans

    Has there actually been a case of a cop openly disregarding the law in which the cop was actually found guilty by the jury? I can't think of one. Wish there were though

    Misandry

    The problem I've found is that almost everything goes two ways. Yes Men are self absorbed and lots of us treat women horribly and there is no excuse for that. However we do seem to ignore that women do similar things to men on an almost equal basis. Men are like bulls running straight at...

    UK Schools to report parents to the police if they allow their children to play 18 rated games.

    Beyond the fact that its not the schools job to decide whether something is neglectful or not, its the parents job to decide whether the game is suitable for their children. That being said, I do believe that ratings are there for a reason, not they they are a hard or fast rule though, just a...

But I think my favorite is Esrahaddon (probably close in spelling) from the Rhryria Chronicles (i spelled that wrong sorry). Dudes a 1,000 year old Wizard that...
