    Legend of Korra: Book Three Finale Review: Korra Rolls On

    This is all spot-on. I'd like to further elaborate that Yangchen also stated that complete earthly detachment was impossible for the avatar because the avatar spirit is forever bound in the cycle of earthly rebirth. Also that the second season episode to which you refer is called "The...

    A criticism of Bob Chipman

    Whether or not you agree with Bob's various stances, this is not the guy to rally behind. There was not a single good point made in this video. He also manages to argue against himself at least once. I found myself responding to this guy's points with either 'So what?' or 'You missed the point'...

    To me Game of Thrones will never be the same (S4E8 discussion)

    All those events that you mentioned happened in the ninth episode of their respective seasons. They always hit the climax on episode nine. As shocking as Oberyn's death was (and he was my favourite character when I read the books), It isn't the climax of this season by a long shot. Don't give up...

    Most Bizarre Errors You Constantly See

    This. People not understanding the set-subset relationship. It's possible to be both a feminist and an egalitarian. This is a lot like saying "I can't stand when people say 'Sub' when what they mean is 'Sandwich'" You are creating a false dichotomy. I'll be sure to ask my Feminist...

    Poll: Would you take a pill that makes you bisexual?

    I have enough trouble trying to attract members of one sex. If I were bisexual that would probably just mean twice the rejection from people I'm attracted to.

    Poll: Do you like the British Royal Family?

    There really should be an option in this poll for non British people for whom The Queen is still their country's sovereign. I for one am Canadian and not British but the Queen of the UK is also the Queen of Canada and the rest of the Commonwealth realms. I have difficulty, therefore, choosing...

    Trailers: The Elder Scrolls Online - The Alliances Cinematic Trailer

    Are we afraid that the beast races aren't in the game? They most certainly are, sais so on the official site.

    "There is nothing wrong being racist"

    It appears that your friend would benefit from the simple joy of an intimate relationship with fast-moving traffic. Or maybe it's everyone else who'll benefit... either way you can tell him I highly recommend it.

    Is morrowind better than skyrim?

    The bad graphics argument really falls apart when you consider The Morriwind Graphics Extender Mod, which brings the greatest RPG of all time into the modern realm of HDR, Distant rendering, and damn fine quality water effects.

    I use too big of words. Eloquency

    "I use too big of words." Is not a proper sentence. Eloquency is not a real word, you meant to say Eloquence. Your coworkers find you irritating because you act smarter than you actually are.

    Gay Scene Cut From UK Torchwood

    Notice how they say "Last night, the BBC confirmed the scene had been axed along with another gruesome scene later in the series." They refer to the scene as 'gruesome', which the dictionary tells me means 'a cause of shock; ghastly'. What kind of paper is this 'The Sun' to use such...

    Canadian Scientists Cure Cancer... No One Notices?

    The reason the media hasn't seized on this is because the researchers involved are being extremely cautious. The technique is still being researched and they don't want people to think this is an absolute cure and then have it turn out as a failure once testing is complete. Here's the...
