    How to forget stupid, annoying internet commenter

    Mh, no, not gone. I just want to kick that thing real hard, and if I ever see it again, I will, and I'm sure it will be fully deserved. I don't accept this vegetable standard of communication as a fair argument or behaviour. (BTW. somewhere completely different.) Maybe I shouldn't have tried not...

    Kickstarter - Have you backed? What did you think?

    There are at least three games I'm looking forward to and which also fit into my scheme of dream games more than anything by normal publisher models right now. Project Eternity, Tides of Numenera, Dreamfall Chapters. They are simply the kind of games many games should be or pretend to be, and...

    How to forget stupid, annoying internet commenter

    Well, it's not about the rationality of it or simply deciding to do something else. It's about the psychological fact that it creeps back in by some backdoor, or that I get reminded of it somehow or by some context, which can be the context of thinking itself, as that partly ended up being the...

    How to forget stupid, annoying internet commenter

    I currently want to ignore and forget a debate with a stupid person, but it somehow doesn't get out of my head. Whenever I think of its worthlessness and stupidity in order to forget it, I immediately feel engaged again. I could more or less forget it until I saw notifications of two new...

    What A Novel Idea...

    "They say that history is written by the victors. I don't know who 'they' are, really, but the one thing they never mention is that history and truth don't always go hand in hand." That doesn't make sense. Because that's exactly what that saying is supposed to mean. Also, that person must...

    Zero Punctuation: Star Trek

    Gosh, I'm everytime surprised by how a largely very intelligent guy like Yatzeeh can be so stupid and serious about something like the naming of Star Wars. So what, it's not about the stars themselves, but only set in the stars or between "star systems", which the same as "countries" or...

    Zero Punctuation: Dead Space 3

    One of the few reviews of this whole series that is able to recognize how totally pathetic these games are.

    Poll: Fantasy or Scifi?

    Literary scifi tends to be detached from the human relationship to the world, which is an essential part of writing. It almost grudges to be literature and wants to be something more "real" than it. It can be very good and interesting (with or without), but that aspect rarely disappears...

    Why do people reject evolution?

    Just so you know in case you really don't, there is no alternative to evolution, no matter how more refined it may get, it is observable in small scale and there are more complete proofs, evolution is apparent in the whole history of species, and essential part of practical genetics...

    Why do people reject evolution?

    Probably because they're markedly stupid conservative Americans...

    Zero Punctuation: XCOM: Enemy Unknown

    Hah, I actually used a similar analogy to describe the intuitiveness of the original X-Com interface, only I used a fighter jet instead of a submarine. But like with most things that aren't among the collective acceptable standard phrases to think about something, people just *look* at noticing...

    Zero Punctuation: Dishonored

    The warm, generous reception of this game by RPS got me to buy it for the full price, and now I don't even particularly bother completing it. A luxurious production they called it. Just because it has a few solid designs. It's always the same. Shouldn't buy any games at all, ever. Except if...

    Games you desperately want to like more than you do.

    Not desperately. But I still can't believe anyone liked DA:O. What a tedious, ugly, unfunny letdown. But people like all sorts of things. Like MMOS. And anything else that isn't one of those two or three worthwile games in a couple of years. I guess I don't like games. Because they're not good.

    Zero Punctuation: Quantum Conundrum

    Oh, I hate these hardware and IT cunts as well. And many others like them.

    So, my girlfriend is in porn and I don't know what to do.

    Just make really, really sure. Then slowly bring the conversation over to sex and porn. There is only this or keeping it to yourself. If it really is her, try to talk about it as if it's normal (like how and why you come to do any sort of things). There really isn't much advice to give, I think...
