I don't think I've ever seen somebody arguing with that. The issue here is that, in some places, it's also illegal to view the "harmless" stuff that you described. True, it's skeezy, and it may or may not promote a subculture of child molestation (which we can all agree is not okay). On the...

This is a complex issue, and I'd have to think over my own opinions for a looonnng time before I'd feel comfortable putting them in writing. But I did see a fascinating take from someone else that I think everyone should read: Original discussion...

Okay, I'll bite: 1) Ayreon - Liquid Eternity 2) Ayreon - Day Three: Pain 3) Coldplay - In My Place 4) Guster - Careful 5) Terra Naomi - Say it's Possible (album version) Bold are the ones I listened to all the way through before moving on. Thanks; this was fun! *cough* 6) Dream...

I hate to pimp my own writing; it makes me feel like such a tool. But I did a piece early last year about piracy [http://intelligentgames.wordpress.com/2010/05/08/a-piratical-interlude/] that's very relevant and addresses most of the arguments in this thread in as balanced a manner as I could...

You're absolutely right, on both counts. Most of the dialogue is about the men, since they're the dominating aspect of their lives, but it only needs one non-male-centered conversation to pass (and there are plenty). And that's the point of the test; it's not about feminism per se, it's just a...

No, but see...that's the point. It's an explotative movie about exploitation [http://inception.davepedu.com/]. My favorite part, though, is that you can actually believe it's their fantasy world, not something a male writer dreamed up.Ironically, since a male writer did. Sure they're dressed...

The video's awesome, but I disagree with its title. This gig is at the wrong drummer.

The X-Men picture is epic. Actually, they're both great. Where did you get them/can I have them pretty please? As for myself...

You missed one from earlier in the gallery [http://sharpwriter.deviantart.com/gallery/]. Here ya go:

It got Femshep, Dr. McNinja, the Black Hat Guy from XKCD, and Gnome Chomsky (the gnome from Half-Life), but then took two tries to get Erin Stout. Tsk. I'm gonna go see what it knows about Tim Langdell now. EDIT: Victory! Langdell was in the database, but Akinator was completely unable to...

Half-life 2 Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Mass Effect 2 Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Portal Games that are so good I have to mention them, even though I've already got five: Mass Effect Knights of the Old Republic 2 (that's right, the sequel) Halo: Combat Evolved Minecraft

Everyone who thinks the new album is generic, boring, or terrible has clearly never heard this song: You're welcome.

Ah, but the fable clearly teach us (boy and girl) that women are no good into a car. By simply allowing Ms. Stout into the passenger's seat, her male friend was taking a terrible risk--and he paid the consequences. Good catch, though.

People other than me say this? Interesting. You wouldn't think so, from the looks I get. I've been swearing at Lara Croft a lot lately, although most of it isn't that original. And then there's the old standby of "FUCK ME SIDEWAYS WITH A LUNCHBOX" (courtesy of Ethan Albright...

I propose we lock them both in a cage and let them fight to the death. Then whoever is left standing gets to stay in the cage and rot. In all seriousness, though: MLK, Ghandi, and nearly every major religion in the world beg to differ. Just saying.
