    Your view on racism, and do you believe this is racist?

    An old parable for your consideration: A child goes to his grandfather and says, "Grandfather, Jimmy says I'm prejudiced, but I'm not! Why would he say that?" His grandfather asks, "Who is Jimmy?" "Jimmy is my Jewish friend," the boy says. "Then you are prejudiced, because you think of him as...

    What Are You a Sucker For?

    Comedy. Pretty much all my entertainment has to be some variety of comedy. Exceptions to this rule are damn impressive examples of their craft indeed.

    Pizza a vegetable?

    Wrong! America desperate. See, cafeteria food here in America is shit. Like, maybe if you're not American you think your cafeteria food sucks, but you're wrong it's fucking delicious and you're just a whiner. So like, all they can get the kids to eat is pizza. But pizza is officially...

    English Breakfast!

    I normally sleep through breakfast and skip straight to lunch (also I'm an American, where "breakfast" usually means "something crazy sweet so the sugar kicks you into warp but ultimately unsatisfying") but fuck if that doesn't look so damn delicious. I might wake up in time for breakfast more...

    Bronies Get the Cracked Treatment

    To quote Winston Rowntree, I've never seen a normal person and I have no idea what one looks like, and I don't think anyone else has either. Oh yeah, I saw that. If his math is right, Rainbow Dash was pulling something like 1670 Gs. Like to see one of your fancy Michael Bay Transformers do that.

    Your home town's claim to fame

    Our claim to fame is that our public school sports teams are all called the "Braves" (complete with Native American mascot, because at least it's not a racist cartoon like the Redskins), so at sporting events, at the end of the national anthem everyone from here shouts "BRAVES!" instead of...

    You have been sentenced to die... No really..

    I would wager around three days' worth. But you'd stop enjoying it before the first one was out, I'll reckon.

    Imagine opening night for MLP the movie

    There's already been a movie. More than one, in fact (Obscurus Lupa reviewed the most recent one not too long ago. She suffers for our amusement!). The My Little Pony franchise is way older than just Friendship Is Magic. In fact, the franchise's history is pretty much the entire reason the...

    What makes you depressed?

    Isolation. I don't do too well with too much solitude. My second apartment in college, my parents insisted I live in a studio apartment on my own, apparently because they had taken it into their head that this would result in paying LESS for rent (because...don't even ask me, sometimes my...

    Question about "friend zone".

    I feel like you're not really comprehending the point of your own thread...

    Is the Insanity Plea a legitimate defense?

    On average, pleading insanity leads to an incarceration twice as long as going to actual prison. You don't have a set time you're going to be in, they hold you until they think you're fit to function in society again. Basically, there are only two times you would plead insanity: When you're a...

    Question about "friend zone".

    Actually Lilith is completely on topic. She's saying "the Friend Zone is bunk", and I'm inclined to agree. Missing the point, I feel. I'm saying that without Nice Guy Syndrome, we wouldn't have the "Friend Zone." Fuck, son, ask her to go steady. If you just wait for it it'll never come...

    Poll: A compromise for Skyrim's children

    I've got a compromise for you. You can't kill children, but you can sort of maim them a little until a social worker comes and fosters them out to a family that actually loves them.

    Question about "friend zone".

    I'm almost certain that the "Friend Zone" as a negative concept was invented entirely by Nice Guys. If you think about the implications it's actually an incredibly sexist concept: "She doesn't want to fuck me, so why doesn't she just say she's not interested? It's not like she could possibly be...

    Animation / Digital Effects Specialists Opinions required

    Yeah, actually that does change the advice. Flash or ToonBOOM are good choices. Again, if you can't fox it yourself you might want to hire a freelancer, although in this case that piece of advice is slightly more self-serving because I'm an animator by trade. You wanna talk numbers or see a reel?
