    Do You Wanna Date the Above Avatar?

    When I date creatures of nightmare, I always let them order the lobster. If they want. EDIT: Damn, this thread moves quickly.

    Why do people say that the British didn't do a thing in WW2?

    It's no secret that the American public education system is an atrocity, so statements like this crop up. But we do have freedom of information, and people who are so inclined can pick up a book and educate themselves about a variety of subjects. Just like the news, you have to pick and choose...

    Poll: "This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine..."

    I can only speak for the U.S. army, but the drill sergeant's toolbox has been limited in the modern military due to the concern of society in general. I saw a trainee get hit or manhandled occasionally, but those were extreme situations. In the first couple of weeks, everybody got hounded and...

    Richard Garriot Says "His" Game is Yet to Come

    Garriott still hasn't grasped the fact that having your heyday as a game designer in the C-64 era has little bearing on making modern games. Plus the fact that I can't shake the feeling that if I buy anything he develops, I'll be funding a new dungeon under his house, or a trip into space, or...

    Branston Pickle and You

    Yeah, supermarket sushi is basically the Antichrist. But when I'm desperate for a fix, I turn to it. It's sort of like sucking leftover heroin out of your carpet with a Whataburger straw.

    Branston Pickle and You

    Branston isn't really pickle in the American sense of the word - it's more of a chutney that reminds me of vegetables marinated in Worcestershire sauce, although not quite as strong. I ate it with some pulled pork tonight, and I'm happy to report that it was pretty tasty.

    Branston Pickle and You

    First heard about Branston Pickle from ZP, and had a hard time finding it in my area of the US. Bought the last jar at HEB yesterday, took it home, and put it on the recommended grilled cheese sandwich. Delicious. Also put it on some supermarket-grade sushi today to liven it up a little, with...

    Mass Effect 2 Plot Holes (Spoilers)

    Off topic: I haven't played ME2 yet, but I gotta ask if it's supposed to be 'illusive man' or 'elusive man'. They're both words but one makes a lot more sense than the other out of context.

    No Dead Space 2 for PC? - UPDATED

    The PC port of Dead Space was pretty lousy, with a lot of control issues. Perhaps that's why sales didn't thrive on the PC, if that fact is true. When I purposely buy a shooter for my Xbox because I can aim better with thumbsticks than with a mouse, something is horribly wrong.
