    Question about Judaism

    Before I ask, I don't know anything about Judaism so please forgive any offenses I might unintentionally incur. So, pork isn't considered kosher because they are 'unclean' in the sense that they live/eat in their own excrement correct? And I heard somewhere that orthodox jews don't eat...

    The Truth About Girl Gamers.

    I don't trust a lot of gamer girls. The ones that I know personally in real life (though I love them to death) tend to do it for the attention. Since 95% of the time they more or less receive it as well, (from other gamer guys) whether it be in the form of in game items/currency in MMO's, or...

    Poll: Do you really know how to play guitar.

    I played guitar for years before GH and I could play a ton of the 'classics' on real guitar, and I can barely pass them on medium on GH

    Poll: Do you think Amanda Knox is guilty?

    I went to school with her at UW. No I do not think she's guilty. Even without that bias the evidence and prosecution is about as close as Glenn Beck you can get if he were a lawyer.

    Glenn Beck outside the U.S

    I really really really hope that was a joke

    Glenn Beck outside the U.S

    His role in the media is basically to instigate fear and hatred to 'real americans' (conservative racists) until they submit to the republican party. He makes up a lot of improvised conspiracy theories which have no factual basis whatsoever and relies on cheap antics to stir emotion. He also...

    Glenn Beck outside the U.S

    Is Glenn Beck well-known outside the U.S or is he pretty much a national fox-news thing? If so what do you guys 'outside' the U.S think of him? (I personally wish for his imminent and painful death but that's just me)

    Am I the only one not exited about MW2?

    No because: 1) The campaign can't be that long and I play games mostly for narrative/story 2) I don't really care that much for multiplayer or a game that's basically a fancy counterstrike (horrible generalization forgive me), and all that talk about gimping player control over the servers...

    This is a depressing thread.

    Glenn Beck is not dead

    Poll: Are you single?

    I am mostly because I've grown extremely jaded/selective and/or cautious. Before when I was younger I used to date girls left right and center without any regard to my surroundings. Now that I'm older I won't date anybody I see regularly, etc.

    PC Elitists/Console Fanboys

    I game pre-dominantly on PC for these reasons: a) I spend a ton of my time at a computer anyway as an engineering student constantly using Excel/Mathcad/MatLab b) I mostly play single player games, and the multiplayer ones I play with my friends are often over STEAM c) More control...

    Silent Hill movie wasn't that bad.

    When I first saw it, it was before I had played the games and I thought it was really confusing. After playing the games I appreciated it a lot more, so I can definitely see how it was so in-accessible to the general public. It was great for a game-movie, although the bar hasn't exactly been set...
