Considering that I see women and minorities using it unironically, and it was created by an Asian guy, I don't get your comment. As a minority, I don't need a unanimous decision in the minority international parliament to defend what I see as discrimination.

I actually haven't come across it, so I picked no. Theoretically I get it, but most straight male/straight female friendships, if it is a very close friendship, that I've seen or been in can be "upgraded" given time. My parents were best friend, my best friend has had relationships with at least...

I picked a party based on the characters I liked best. By the fourth playthrough (yes, I love this game), I knew for a fact that it was going to be Morrigan, Leliana, Sten.

Guinea Pig 2: Flower of Flesh & Blood A guy dressed up as a samurai kidnaps and drugs a girl, then proceeds to cut her up with a samurai sword bit by bit while reciting poetry. Weird weird movie, but I did watch it to the end. I can't say the same for every other one of the Guinea Pig movies.

I shared an apartment with a college communist. Now, he wasn't some middle class liberal, we're talking a real hardcore "grew up on the mean streets of Philli" "the revolution is coming" kind of communist. Like he started a group that actually did things, both good and crazy, to promote their...

OP, I have a hard time managing too. I've often asked "why" in response to a lot of weird social norms, and I don't have Asperger's (got it checked out and everything because my parents forced me to). I just can't be arsed to care about something that I don't care about, unless it actually hurts...

I'm with you! Though I am not Canadian by birth my family immigrated to Toronto when I was quite young and I picked all that up. It makes living back in my home country on the Mediterranean incredibly painful, both in terms of heat and rudeness. As for stereotypes, ones that only Canadians would...

That is why I don't feel bad for people who have their houses broken into and robbed. Don't they know that if they didn't have a house or things this crime would never have happened??? Take some personal responsibilities, jeesh. Naked homeless people are so smart.

Actually, PC Gamers to regularly feel insulted by ports. It seems porting is really hard for many studios, and we get sub-par products when the game is console-centric. I mean, just look at how a PC Gamer name like Totalbiscuit talks about bad ports, he certainly sounds insulted by what he got...

I'm going to be THAT guy but happiness is a word we use as a category for a wide variety of emotions, its like a range from content to euphoric. In this it is like other feelings, sadness can be a range with depression at its far end and hunger can be a range with starving at its far end. I...

I have issues with anxiety, but I don't know how clinical it is because I am severely mistrustful of doctors of any kind (and I promise that it's for a legit reason and not just paranoia!). One time in university I stopped leaving my apartment and didn't talk to people for a while, which led to...

In my school I had such a hard time with cursive that I was just excused from learning it. It just isn't important these days, and it's hard to read it (though I can given time).

If I remember correctly, Jim loved it, but to be fair he is a big fan of the Dynasty Warriors series

You can tell me when he loses his audience, since he has ALWAYS been vocal on his views and how he perceives the world. He has never hidden it and some follow his work because they find his perspective important (in general, not always). His audience knows who he is. And I strongly disagree, art...

The problem is, as always, America, not the cops. Cops have problems in all of the Western world, but nowhere as badly as America. You know why cops only get fired when they kill someone? Because the chance that the other person had a gun is so high, and therefore if they hesitate to shoot first...
