    Unskippable: Borderlands 2

    You forgot to mention the part where Hyperion owns the respawning system that keeps bringing the Vault Hunters back to life when they die.

    LoadingReadyRun: Rapidfire 3, Episode 5

    I always knew Bob Ross had magical powers. Looking forward to seeing how you guys top this episode with the finale, and dare I hope you leave it open for a Rapidfire 4 sometime in the future?

    Escape to the Movies: Prometheus

    Now if only Universal would let Guillermo Del Toro do At the Mountains of Madness like he's been wanting to do for the last ten years. Hopefully Prometheus either tanks so badly that Universal says "we can do better", or Prometheus does really well, and Universal tries to cash in on their success.

    Judge Demands Disclosure of Private Facebook Photos

    That's fine, she can plead the 5th if she wants. All that means is the court would subpoena Facebook for the photos.

    Escape to the Movies: Raven

    I would totally watch a movie about Lovecraft accidentally finding the Necronomicon and trying to stop an evil cult's plans to summon one of the deities. It would require him to read from the book in order to gain the knowledge to stop them, but at the cost of his sanity. His attempts to warn...

    Escape to the Movies: Raven

    Ouch. No love for Lovecraft, I see. Edit for clarification: Not particularly no love from you specifically, but no love for him in general.

    UK pedo caught by DSi. Confesses to sex (multiple times) with girl (9-11), Gets 3.5 years. Wat.

    First off, he confessed, so the girl lying and the photo not looking legit doesn't hold any weight. Second, his confession was for much more than what the picture revealed, so the picture not showing enough doesn't hold weight either. Perhaps he's got a decent lawyer, but since his punishment...

    UK pedo caught by DSi. Confesses to sex (multiple times) with girl (9-11), Gets 3.5 years. Wat.

    Indeed, all morals, societal norms and laws are arbitrary; however, removing them would not cause complete anarchy because it is human nature to latch onto someone stronger than them. Were all of society to collapse, it would simply reform into a different society with a different set of morals...

    UK pedo caught by DSi. Confesses to sex (multiple times) with girl (9-11), Gets 3.5 years. Wat.

    Precisely the point I am trying to make is that if the definition of "mental illness" is determined by arbitrary social rules, then labeling anything as a mental illness is completely pointless, because as society changes, things that were once considered an "illness" can become accepted, and...

    But by that logic, wouldn't being homosexual be considered a mental illness as well? At their core, they are the same thing (sexual attraction to someone/something other than an adult of opposite gender).

    3 and a half years is plenty long, considering he'll have to deal with this his whole life anyway. And although it's been said several times already in this thread, I'll say it as well since some people still haven't learned. Pedophile =/= Child molester.
