If I own anything particularly rare its probably fossils. I do have a bird tooth from the late Jurassic, possibly some relative of Archaeopteryx. And an Iguanadon metatarsal on my desk. Its fun having a palaeontology degree...

SHIVs are brilliant, they are more durable than your soldiers (except MAYBE with Titan armour and a nano/chitin vest) the Alloy SHIV can be used as mobile cover, the Hover SHIV can bounce up onto a rooftop in no time at all for rescuing/chrysalid wrangling in Terror Missions. And perhaps most...

I have been drinking coffee since before I can remember. Seriously, I had black coffee in a baby bottle. I guess that's what comes from having a copper for a dad... I like the stuff, I've cut down somewhat in recent years, though I still take it black. I like coffee at the start of the day...

Couldn't you do that in Apollo Justice? Though I suppose that may not count as a Phoenix Wright game in the strictest sense...

I'm about 6'4" and my girlfriend is considerably shorter so I tend to be the big spoon. Otherwise the experience is more akin to wearing a large backpack than cuddling...

To be honest, me and my girlfriend are probably the cause of most such noises in our house. She can get a little... enthusiastic. In our last house there was an incident when the housemate downstairs started bashing on the ceiling with a broom because we were making a racket. The girl in the...

I wouldn't worry. I'm going to uni in Southern England, Portsmouth in fact, and I have a friend on the course in a similar situation, he's come all the way from Aberdeen. Being far from home is difficult, but you'll find your feet fast, especially if you stay in halls in first year. EDIT: I...

I was stabbed with a giant knife by a huge wedding dress wearing zombie thing chasing me up a tower of icy blocks. If nothing else, my death will be interesting.

As far as free, English language VNs go, I have two suggestions: Katawa Shojou just came out and is amazingly good. The topic is a little bizarre, a romance set in a school for the disabled, but the characters are brilliant and the stories of all routes are impressively well written. There is...

St John's Wood is the only station on the London Underground with none of the letters of the word 'mackerel' in it.

To play Devil's Advocate here, we Brits are hardly blameless on the genocide and enslavement of native populations front. Just look at some of the stuff that happened in Africa, or India, or Australia when we were running those places. If you want a 'forgotten people' who were massacred to make...

Most spells, attacks etc have a DC, this is the number your saving throw has to beat, usually by adding a modifier to the dice roll. For instance, in the description of a Fiery Death Cone of Fiery Death, it will say something like 'Target makes a DC 18 Reflex Save to take half damage.' This...

I don't understand this concept many people here seem to have of a 'true' friendship. How would you define it? The girl I mentioned previously is easily one of my closest friends. We hang out together, we get drunk together, we talk on every subject and we've both been there for each other in...

I don't see why sexual attraction would invalidate a friendship. Several of my female friends are very attractive and yes, I have certainly fantasised about them. With at least one, the attraction is mutual and she suggested that if we're ever both single we should hook up. The idea that wanting...

I tend to find women of my own ethnicity (Caucasian) more attractive than those who aren't. No particular reason, just personal preference. And there are a lot of exceptions to the rule.
