    Poll: Do you still own a VHS?

    Of course. I'm not wealthy enough to have converted my entire movie collection to DVD yet. I'm not even halfway through it and now HD and Blu-Ray are the next big thing. It all seems like a scam to me. I never saw a large enough quality difference between DVD and VHS to warrant the huge switch...

    Greatest band of the 20th century

    This basically sums up the thread. Without these 3, rock music would be a niche hobby and not the mainstream entity it is today.

    Poll: Do you shower in the morning or in the evening?

    Unless I'm very physically active during the afternoon, I only morning shower. I've never understood only evening showering, because then I go to sleep all clean, but when I wake up, I smell like I've just been laying around for 8 hours (probably because I have been). Then, you spend your whole...

    The worst 'best game ever'...

    Half-Life, while having above-average gameplay, only really shines if you let yourself immerse in the story and get to know the characters. It gets to the point where it's a lot like reading a good book with a little interactiveness thrown in. Also, for its time, the physics engine was so...

    The worst 'best game ever'...

    I have 2. Halo - Average sci-fi shooter. The story was bland, at best. Controls were pretty tight, which was good. Other than that, it didn't do anything better than Unreal Tournament did 4 years earlier. Fallout 3 - Terrible blend of FPS with RPG elements. I also never got the point of...

    Are you sick of people saying "thats cheap or noobish"

    Like it or not, there are definitely weapons that are overpowered in certain video games. Frag nades from Gears 2 come to mind. If you're halfway decent at the game, 2 frags = 2+ kills, there's no way around it. Having overpowered weapons in a game, such as the rockets in Halo and w/e only...

    Poll: Jon Stewert vs Stephen Colbert

    Stewart, because his show contains more newsiness, while Colbert is more wacky/zany. Don't get me wrong, Colbert is one of the most entertaining people on TV, but I think Stewart has more substance, which is why I prefer watching him.

    Calling Metal-Heads and Fans of Guitar Hero.

    I fully agree with this post, and the bolded part is the reason why this thread should be locked.

    Poll: Who's the better Bond?

    Well, the majority is going to go with Connery, just because he is held in regard like Chuck Norris. It seems that a lot of people are like "Zomg! Connery is so awesome etc." and the only reason is all of their hipster friends on the Internet say so. I'd have to go with Moore for my personal...

    Poll: Wait for Windows 7 or buy XP for new computer?

    I agree with this. I've been using Vista since a few months after launch, and while it did use quite a bit of memory, I still found it to be a way better OS than XP. I'm going to be buying a laptop for college soon, and I will more than definitely have Vista on it right off the bat, but will...

    Why Creationism Supports Evolution.

    The thing you're missing, it's not "adaptation," it's heredity. If an Asian person and an African person have children, the child is going to have traits from both parents, since children are not born from spores. Also, if a person who grew up in Alaska and has Alaskan traits of very pale...

    Why Creationism Supports Evolution.

    If the first humans were in the middle of the spectrum of color, it would have only been a few dozen generations before we would have the diversity we see today (pale white to darkest black). It has to do with reproduction and traits, a morphing because of your exposure to the sun (equatorial...
