For me, I was in denial. It wasn't until that happened that I realized that I was lying to myself. It was stupid of me. It was me letting my half of the relationship down. It was telling myself that I could handle everything by myself, and not talking about it with anyone, pretending...

Huh. I guess, an alternative perspective. Something I've done. Something that's been done to me. Eight years. Not a lot, when you look at the course of a lifetime, but still a good chunk of time. I have a very high libido. Awhile back, so did my boyfriend. Everything was great. ...

I uh. . .it's not okay for people to give cupcakes to people when they're happy about something? We're not allowed to do that? oh.....okay. :( (I thought it was a very nice gesture, and it's nice to see female characters getting some time in the spotlight) (I'll go back to the...

I wish someone would adapt some of Michelle West's stuff. :( I never really got into Shannara. I tried, but it just didn't speak to me.

I took a marine science class last semester. That was enough for me. I learned about how the ocean handles some of the CO2, absorbs it. I learned about how increasing temperature and acidity (which is part of that) dissolves calcium carbonate. I learned that most of the little critters in...

Thank you for this. While I have always been more interested in writing, I've also come across this sort of sexist attitude just in general. No, it's not terribly rampant or horrible, but sometimes there's this sense when you go into an all-male group that you're there for something other than...

In the reddit thread there was also a translation of everything that went on: http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/209ogj/league_scandal_must_read_source_by_former_pro_adc/cg148e3 It's an awful situation all the way around. Best to him, and I hope he has the support to make it...

Huh, I read it as more that he's pissed with himself and his own limitations, and that even if he could envision and write something like Breaking Bad that the studio wouldn't go for it (maybe because it's too normal?). I've seen novel writers say before, too, that they really like this or that...

I feel bad for the developers. HI YOU'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS UNTIL YOU'RE READY TO PUKE DRAGONS AND BLEED OUT YOUR EYEBALLS GUESS WHAT GUYS YOU GET TO PLAY IT OVER THE HOLIDAYS YAYYYYY. playtesting something really just doesn't seem that fun to me. Especially when, y'know, I'm trying to...

Truuuue story. Both my sister and I are adults out on our own, and last Christmas my parents bought a kinect to try to lure us home more often. My mom was so excited about it and I just remember feeling awful because I knew it was not going to be used willingly. I still kinda feel bad...

Well that has the potential to get creepy fast.

It has snowed 3 times. It has stuck zero times. Now we're getting really, really unusual warm weather. We might not have snow during halloween for the first time in at least a decade. YEAH BUDDY!

Bebop is one of my all time favorites. Then again, I'm one of those anime fans who didn't really care for FMA:B (I always get distracted), couldn't make it through the first few episodes of Geass, and couldn't get past the first episode of Gurren Lagann. Maybe I'm not really an anime fan after...

I wouldn't mind a game that took a broader (or narrower?) take on hyrule. Call it -- Legend of Hyrule, I dunno. A story set in the world, with the legend(s) of zelda (and link!) a living, breathing part, but a focus on other heroes, in other ways. Like in Ocarina I was always curious about...

I'm not done just yet, but I am struck at how reasonable the discussion is. I started reading the thread to sift for more anime recommendations (sadly only a few new ones to try), but by page 4 I'm hooked by the rather genteel discussion. Good job, guys! (knock on wood)
