    Anybody find sex overrated?

    I don't think it's overrated. I've not enjoyed sex on occasion, but as a serial monogamist I far more often feel a great sense of wellbeing afterward, both of the chemical reward kind and the ego boost that is making a lady satisfied. I respect a guy who can admit he's not enjoying his sex...

    Jurassic World - Dinosaurs are Fun Again

    Didn't enjoy the movie. Something that really bothered me was the villain. He wasn't a villain. He was excited by the prospect of dinosaur soldier replacing human soldiers and lessening human casualties. That's all. And Chris Pratt punches him out of nowhere, for no reason, and we're supposed to...

    Jurassic World - That final scene (spoiler warning)

    Enjoyed the scene for what it was. The film was so stupid I'm glad they embraced the cartoonyness of events and did what they did with the team up. Though despite it being funny, I didn't find it at all exhilarating. It was just too much like a marvel or transformers movie, no stakes, lots of...

    Poll: Dark Crystal or Labyrinth?

    Guy for dark Crystal. I'm an art guy and the concept design for dark crystal has always trumped labyrinth imo. I'm a superfn though with two copies of The World of the Dark Crystal. (Both cover variants) The designer for both films is Brian Froud, but if anyone knows his artwork then dark...

    The worst documentary you have ever seen

    Woops. It's actually called Sun Sea and Satan, my bad. You can watch it all on youtube where it's weirdly popular. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lq6lJsBz9UY The thing that makes it a really bad documentary is the fact that shady cover ups of abuse and death probably did happen on the island...

    The worst documentary you have ever seen

    Sun, sex and satan. It's a british documentary about the island of Jersey whereby the filmmaker explores the idea that the royal family and illuminati are using the island as a child farm for their sex rituals. The premise is that Jersey is a hybrid of shadow over Innsmouth, resident evil...

    Questions on the new Mad Max movie

    The movie features a powerful co-protagonist whose motivations power most of the plot. None of the scenes making her powerful seemed contrived, all of her many crowning moments of awesome occurred naturally within set piece battles and served to create more spectacular scenes. I never for a...

    Misused Terms You're Sick of Seeing

    I getcha, I know it means bizarre and uncanny and sometimes dreams are mundane and unremarkable, so it can be worth specifying a dream as surreal. It come off as redundant to me because I assume the standard for a dream is to be dream-like, and I take dream like to mean uncanny and bizarre. Like...

    Misused Terms You're Sick of Seeing

    Lots of social justice phrases already, but mansplaining. It means to condescendingly explain something to someone who has more experience or understanding of the topic. Usually a man explaining the motivations or thought processes of women to a woman. It doesn't mean anytime a man explains...

    Having difficulty understanding transgendered people? I'll try to help.

    I'm confused about the semantics behind the statement 'transwomen are women' or 'transmen are men.' I get that people might not want to highlight the trans part of their identity for whatever reason, and its nice to find solidarity among cis men or women in some shared experience. But I...

    Does anyone sincerely want to play as "ugly" characters in games?

    Attractive characters can be ugly. I find asymmetry, disfigurement, sinew, emaciation, bulbous noses, wild curly hair, non complimentary color palettes, etc. attractive. That's visually attractive, not sexually attractive. I will always choose the freak over the pretty boy. I have never felt the...

    Warhammer 40K Newb tips

    If you've got troops and a hq from a starter box you're well on your way. I wouldn't invest in something like imperial spacemarines just because they are the most standardized and easy to start with. Models are expensive, assembling and painting is time consuming, so if you like chaos go...

    Bloodborne hype thread

    Can't wait. It'll be cane/whip for me. Does anyone know how the beast mechanic works? Like if you corrupt yourself enough do you lose use of your weapons but gain hand to hand buffs or something?

    There seems to still be a lingering concept that things guys do need to be "manly" or "not girly"

    I suppose it is the nature of a special interest group to be specialized in their goals. It just seems to me that many people who have the energy to fight for these things waste that energy on attacking 'rival' causes, and that is ultimately a loss of energy or passion or drive that could be put...

    There seems to still be a lingering concept that things guys do need to be "manly" or "not girly"

    But they're the men that need the most fighting for. They often seem to be excluded from mra discussions for the sole reason that feminists already accept their problems as legitimate, and so they can't be used to make feminists seem callous to men. My point was the to legitimize the mra...
