    Books you finished and just thought: "Well...that was shit"

    Sophie's World. It was pretentious, boring, and confusing. Don't get me started on the ending.

    Poll: Favorite Elder Scrolls In-Game story (and why)

    "The Immortal Blood" - about the vampire hunter - I found to be genuinely creepy, especially the twist and the end.

    So according to some feminists, this anti-rape ad campaign is sexist

    Hypothetical scenario: Your best friend's parents went out to a party, where they stayed until quite late at night. On the way home, they were hit by another car, whose driver was perhaps drunk, and were killed instantly. Would you then go up to your friend and say, "Well, I'm sorry that your...

    Some cool wallpapers I found

    EDIT: Oh, no, it is now. Also, holy shit, how many pictures are in there for it to be 631 MB???

    Skyrim. R.I.P. Companions.

    RIP all the followers of this guy: RIP Shadowmere. Why the fuck aren't you essential? RIP Lucian LaChance. Died fighting draugr, dragons, giants, angry townspeople, dogs, wolves, vampires, the Emperor, Imperial guards, and I think one werewolf. I didn't revive you after fighting that...

    Skyrim Dragons: Ok this is getting ridiculous......

    During the main Mages Guild quest, a dragon spawned near the College. What really annoyed me was

    Imperials or Stormcloaks?

    Neither. I kill Thalmor when it pleases me, and side with them when they offer coin. I'm the sort of person who will do anything for money. Also, I heard there was a bug with the main quest if you choose a side before you finish it, so... But if I HAD to choose, it would depend on my race. I...

    How would my fellow escapists react if they were in a scenario like this.

    My immediate reaction would probably be one of surprise, but I don't think my relationship with them would hinge on their career, if I was so in love with them. I'd probably be a little hurt that they kept it from me for so long, but I'd get over it. (Also, with the amount of porn I watch...

    Skyrim Oddities

    Oh, I was being attacked by a dragon outside of Riften, and the guards were helping me. Then one guard turned to me and said, "You have to pay the entrance tax to get inside Riften." DUDE, THERE'S A DRAGON RIGHT THERE.

    Skyrim Oddities

    Doing the quest Innocence Lost, I listen to the woman who runs the orphanage talking, then I stalk her into her room. She sits at the desk, I shoot her with an arrow... ... and then she sinks through the fucking floor. Only to reappear in the orphan's main bedroom area. What the fuuuuuuck.

    Annoying Video Game Quotes Forever Etched into your Memory

    That quote would have made Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone a thousand times better.

    So I bought a PS3 so I could play Heavy Rain and..

    TL;DR. Joking, joking. I felt much the same way. And the controls are clunky as fuck. It's a mediocre game in a sea of mediocre games.

    Skyrim to have fable 3 like features

    Don't care, but the NPC shown in that article is stunningly attractive. Then again, I have been playing Oblivion for the past few days and staring at flat expressionless faces.

    Poll: Male reproductive rights

    How the fuck is this thread still active? It's a ridiculous idea, and totally violates women's rights. Women's decisions about pregnancy should carry more weight than a man's because, oh, let's see: WOMEN CARRY THE FUCKING BABY. I notice that you are a male. Do you want children? Well...

    Sony Admits Private PSN Info Has Been Stolen - All Of It

    I'm bemused by the blatant cynicism on the website. Also, this is all over the news in Australia. I first heard about it on the ABC, and then I logged on here to check it out. Nothing can ever be truly safe. Not your bank account, not your gaming account, nothing. Sony's system might have had...
