I feel its worth pointing out two things; both tests do not account for a time period and magical world doesn't mean non-scientific world. These may seem irrelevant but technology is a production of manipulation of natural resources with science to create advanced tools. So if we lived in a...

49/100. That's actually a lot less than I was expecting, considering that I'm a white straight male. Truth be told though, I think the test only works well in an american perspective because since I'm from the UK, I could get financial support from the government and I have health care...

I'm not sure about you but if you're the type to get into a frustrated anger, I suggest you keep a means to calm yourself down. Petting a dog or cat helps. You want to be calm and collected as much as possible. If you're not planning on doing a Magic / Pyromancy type character, take the...

... I would be a pikachu. Though not for reasons one might expect. I would use the electricity to recharge my various battery operated devices on the go. Never again would I have to run to find a plug; just Thundershock some battery life into whatever it is. And pikachu out of all the electric...

I generally dislike the idea of risking dependence and addiction as well as the idea of the mind being altered on that level. I don't drink alcohol for the same reason. It just doesn't seem right to alter ones thinking and behavior with chemicals for the purpose of entertainment. I'd keep away...

Its mostly just a tick box for me now, reading the latest chapter of the manga. If I'm reading for enjoyment there are other series but these are just a chore basically, I keep at it mostly because, well I want to see the fallout when they FINALLY end. They will eventually.

I really like the Fate stories, the VN especially though the quality of the anime left me disapointed in almost all regards though the Unlimited Blade Works movie had some great fight scenes. The new anime has me excited but torn, since it'll be the Heaven's Feel route which while I admit, has...

Oh boy...This should be fun. My first memory of gaming was my dad and big sister playing Sonic The Hedgehog on the Sega Megadrive...Genesis to everyone outside the UK, I think. I played too just not as well. Then we got a playstation and Lara Croft became a family project. The three of us...

I own a Gameklip, a bit tame compared to some of the stuff on here. It basically lets me mount my smart phone to a PS3 Controller, and then use a wire to allow me to play certain games with PS3 Control. Its caught some attention at college where I used it, also helps with photos but most...

I know it isn't healthy, I know its "wrong" and that ultimately I'd be dooming myself to a life of unhappiness but... I've always wanted to know what its like to save someone's life and I respect Emiya Shirou's - Unlimited Blade Works route that is - conviction to an ideal of being a...

I've had little success too but the success I have had, have taught me something; I only succeeded in those relationships because I wanted them more than I was afraid of the repercussions. I had to find someone who I liked being with, found attractive and had similar interests because it made me...

Ear lobe stretchers, piercing in places besides the ear lobes, onesies and... Hoodies. Too overdone. Too common. Boring. Why bother?

I got mine about two years after it was released...I think... And its still running fine to this day without a single fault or issue.

For me, it'd be Inside The Fire by Disturbed. It...It gets to me, I worry about something like that happening to myself and my own partner.

So one day, when I'm old, withered, my goatee then a full beard to rival the old wizards of fiction, I might be able to enjoy my days playing games on whatever I damn well please with my pension. Smashing.
