I forgot about those because I never actually entered either of those two rooms after my first play-through.
They're pretty small considering the crew complement of the Normandy, though.
Not exactly. Water does evaporate from the sea and precipitates on the land, but the sea is salty. Is your rain salty? No. Because the water only, not the soultes, evaporate, so precipitation only has air pollutants in it.Lt._nefarious said:

Some commercials, where animated, livable, obviously sentient food (like talking fish-like snacks) advertise you to eat that food. Not only snacks are presented as actual sentient species you supposed to eat, but above-mentioned talking fish-like snack in ad is basically telling you to eat its own people.
A lot of commercials are creepy, to think about it.

The Snowman is a little bit pedoey, he abducts the boy and takes him to a snowman party which could be a pedo party. Maybe I've uncovered the true events of that story, where the fucks my prize?
Just because we're better at it than other species doesn't make us 'creepy'. I don't really understand how that's considered creepy.Strazdas said:
I guess if you think about organic oils are bit creepy. Ancient dead animals (and plants) as fuel.
More than that, try and think how the first dairy farmer found out that milk came from a cow, and how to get it out.Oro44 said:

The Doctor Who universe. Doctor Who has often tried to be scary, with varying degrees of success. Autons? Not so scary. Weeping angels and gasmask zombies? Shit the bed terrifying. But humanity appears to be under almost constant attack by a variety of beasties, even in the future when man has colonised space. And it's clear that the doctor doesn't save everyone.
I once heard an idea regarding how teleportation may work, deconstruction unit on the entrance end and a fresh set of atoms for reassembly at the exit. When you think about it if a person was to use on of those devices they would essentially be killing themselves when they step inside and it would be a copy of the person who steps out at the other end.
something similar is in fact happening to us all the time, cells die and new ones are formed to replace them, eventually none of the original cells and most likely atoms will exist within the body therefore I am we are in theory a similar and yet quite different person to who we were ten years or so ago.
I will not admit to watching much anime but will come clean about having watched ghost in the shell a few times back when there was a channel devoted to the stuff in the UK. I?m fairly sure the issue of that cyber brain thing is fairly similar, whether or not they are the same person after having their brain scanned and digitised and whether or not the original is in fact quite dead and a number of copies have been walking around in their place since.
I don't really remember much of the series so I may be wrong, I assume this is where the idea of the soul comes into play? Or some unique essence which makes you you no matter what your made of.
Probably used all the wrong terminology, haven?t watched it or anything similar in around four years. Possibly more.

Wait... you're telling me that part of your childhood was based in a sequel that, until now, I didn't even know existed?Rose and Thorn said:
I mean, I'm not the brightest, most attentive bulb in the knife block, but I'd imagine that even I'd have noticed a sequel to one of the most legendary films of this generation!
I think I need to go lay down.
About half of the things we give/show/sing to our kids to keep them entertained.
For example, consider a few of the ole' nursery rhymes:
"Ring Around the Rosy" - is a song about the Black Plague. The disease that resulted in untold millions of deaths.
"Humpty Dumpty" - is very likely a riddle alluding to King Richard the 3rd, and his subsequent fall from grace and death/defeat in battle.
"Jack and Jill" - is about two children falling down a hill and breaking their necks or skulls. (likely fatally)
"Rock a-by Baby" - depicts a child in a bassinet/cradle, suspended in a tree, falling to the ground. (again, likely fatally)
Now, consider some of the things our kids see in TV shows, video games, or even suggested through toys; things we may notice, or get the reference to, but assume they won't; and those shows, games, etc become at least mildly creepy.

The citizens of Tamriel are outnumbered 40 to 1 by just bandits. Not to mention daedric horrors and angry animals.

Fear not, yo can put your mind at ease. Nobody in Hollywood thinks that Michael Bay makes good movies; they just think that he makes profitable movies. Still kinda sucks though, when you think about itVoidWanderer said:

Dunno about the second, but I think someone dying and people eating his entrails is good enough without any additional meaning.
Yep.

This is true of pretty much anyone living in a western RPG. I mean think about it. Mass Effect. How many people do you encounter in clubs and shops? How many do you encounter/kill as Cerberus operatives or mercinaries? In Borderlands you meet, what, maybe a dozen people who aren't crazed axe-wielding lunatics? Hell, in Borderlands 2 you commit a systematic genocide of the Nomads, who are clearly a distinct cultural/ethnic group with a set of physical characteristics and traditional clothing. The previous Elder Scrolls games and Fallout games are all populated largely by leather-clad psychopaths. In FNV I've racked up kill counts in the thousands. If you added up all the friendly/nonpsycho NPC's in the entire game you wouldn't get as many people as most player characters butcher. Red Faction Guerrilla? 80% of the population is EDF soldiers getting sent home in a box. In STALKER, holy shitballs why have the bandits not just killed everyone? Or left the exclusion zone and toppled all world governments with their literally endless numbers?Easton Dark said:

Damn right you should be. You're a genocidal monster in almost every open-world game you play.
