Yeah I don't see the appeal of the interdimensional TV stuff at all. Don't think I laughed once when watching it - but the b-plots in both episodes were pretty good, so meh. No show nails every episode.

Fund surgery for Vanessa to get her manjaw and adams apple fixed and her dick chopped off (fuck saying that makes me shudder), and in return she agrees to date you - win win!

TV Alex seems a bit bipolar sometimes, goes into weird funks for no reasons (probably to add drama I guess). Book Alex gets mopey, but only situationally (when stuff to do with his background comes up). Of the 4 Naomi is still the one who seems least like her book counterpart. The part that...

Ok that makes a lot more sense - I was confused by your comment about them finding out "what's what," I figured that was a reference to them finding out you had some junk in your trunk. Well at least you're humble :p But seriously, in the sense of being willing to bang a trans person if I...

Nope I'm terrible with names. If it isn't an adaption of a book I've read, I can usually only name maybe 1/3 of the characters in any given show I'm watching off the top of my head, if that.

Here's a hypothesis worth testing, the correlation between lifetime THC consumption and belief that the moon landing was faked.

Overthinking it? Could be, I've never really consciously considered the issue before now. My original conclusion was that if the opportunity had popped up back in the day, after a night of drinking and with maybe some other chemicals in the mix, I would probably have let one of them give me a...

Yeah it seems like a huge stretch for me, and far too convenient. I also don't like the idea that Martin is inherently corrupt or evil somehow - it really robs his character of his meaning in the story.

Not really, except that I just can't see the appeal. I've happily fucked chicks who were, by most metrics, far less attractive than the trannies in those pics, but thinking back to those experiences gets me turned on, while fantasizing about those trannies... doesn't. There's something...

By that logic, a handjob is a handjob and buttsex is buttsex, isn't it?

Just knowing they have/had a penis completely short circuits it for me :/ I could probably be attracted to plenty of those chicks if someone just snuck them into one of the porn threads, but flicking through those photos and I immediately start looking for masculine features, or wondering what...

0/10 would vomit.

Yeah that's just weird. Chicks with dicks is one thing, but I think we have to draw a line somewhere...

I'm suggesting that the people most likely to hang out with a trans woman are also the people who, for ideological reasons, least likely to be honest and objective when it comes to trans issues. Kinda like "does my ass look fat?" Except ass = adams apple, fat = make me look like a dude and...

If for the sake of discussion we accept that hypothesis (and I'm leery about it, but taking that line of conversation further involves digging up studies and what not, and frankly I cbf right now), what do you think we should do about the individuals who will never pass? I mean either way...

I can't see Hirosaki having anything to do with it, otherwise all the Asians would be getting fucked as well. Although the effect is actually pretty similar, just at a different age. Aussie chicks hit 25 and jump to 35, Asian chicks hit 45 and jump to 60. Sucks but what can you do (well date...

HOTS doesn't really have "carries" in the same way that LOL does. Heroes of the Storm (HotS): Home is a good resource to see how heroes and specific hero specs are stacking up in terms of pure win rates. It's been a while since I played but Malfurion and Rehgar are both solid support options...

Fair enough, more power to you then I guess. You might have gone into this earlier (I tried to go back through the thread, but it got Hodjed up good), but do you feel that the social stress of not passing accounts for any degree of the high rate of suicide among trans people? More loosely...

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night with a sinking feeling in your stomach, overwhelmed by the undeniable truth that no matter how much surgery you get and how much makeup you wear, you will never be a woman? Not trying to be a dick, genuinely curious about how trannies survive day...

Game is 50% off at the moment if anyone is on the fence.

Totally different things. You're talking about the origin of their powers, I'm talking about their function. And even then, I probably wouldn't have found it such an immersion killer if either a) his mind control power had actually operated anything remotely like a virus operates (viruses...

Every time I see default FemRyder:

In. Don't even care how the fuck this is supposed to work continuity-wise.

That's pretty borderline. if he actually said he was going to try and send the posts to Z's boss, or said that other people should, then that's probably pretty good grounds for a banning. If he was being strictly hypothetical, then I'm not so sure. As with all things Tanoomba, it's hard to tell...

Yes, with the caveat that I don't know what he was specifically banned for. But unless it was some really egregious shit, I feel that he has the right to post like anyone else. It's a pain when he drags threads off on tangents, but I think the onus for that is at least as much on the people who...

Jesus, heart failure at 36. Is that a complication from having freaky giant genes, or did he just get a shitty roll on the genes?

I can't see it getting cancelled. Even if the viewership is just average, this is the most excitement and public goodwill Syfy have generated since BSG. They definitely faltered a bit with the S1 marketing, but they also seem to be doing well with the word of mouth thing, at least if how much...

Which is why I think it's absurd when they try to explain them Easier to just set a certain level of suspension of disbelief and maintain internal consistency from there. Can you imagine if you'd gone to see, eg. Dr. Strange, and the Ancient One had given a 10 minute explanation about how all...

The difference is that most superpowers don't even try to be realistic. At the end of the day, it's much better for everyone involved if they just say "yeah he's psychic, that's a thing in this setting." Reasonable suspension of disbelief can fill in the rest pretty easily. Having it be some...

I've always felt that Gaiman creates incredible settings, but then forces us to watch them through the eyes of the most stale, 2-dimensional protagonists possible. I think a large part of the success or failure of this adaption will come down to whether they manage to turn Shadow into an actual...

It happened at exactly the same moment as the revelation that the villain in Jessica Jones controlled people's minds by exuding a virus. What the fuck is that?

To me it felt like spoon feeding was exactly what they were doing, what with having Elliot & Margo sitting behind the rock reminding everybody what a Niffin is and cracking Harry Potter jokes, instead of actually trying to help fight the Beast. I'm sure budget was a consideration too (twice as...

I hope so, but I have serious concerns about Harmon's ability to outsmart himself after the way he wrote Community into the ground. I just hope he isn't hanging on reddit all day basking in the adulation of the fanbase echochamber.

Yeah the arm looked pretty cheesy, but the part I really noticed was the special effects. Obviously their budget is a lot more strained this season, but the effects for most of the basic magic in that scene (Alice's magic missiles, Beast's fireball) were atrocious. Luckily the Niffin effects...

I am wondering Also they need to make up their fucking minds with Penny's hands. He has hands, then he loses them, then he regains them but they're cursed and useless/dangerous, then he regains the use of them through a ritual, then the ritual fails and they're useless again, then he has...

Just caught up on the last 2 episodes, damn this show just keeps getting better.

Man this season is way the fuck all over the place. One scene will be amazing, the next will have me completely "wtf who wrote this?" Or they'll have both in the same scene, like the battle against Martin (the special effects for Alice's magic missiles were terrible, and what the fuck was with...

^ Second that. I think 'best sci Fi series ever made' is maybe a tiny bit too far, but it's definitely up there with Firefly/BSG/DS9, and deserves more attention than it gets.

Luke Cage and Jessica Jones both fell really flat for me, so hopefully this is a bit more engaging.

Lolled because it works on two levels. I think "excellent" is a bit much. It has some great elements and the prose is generally quite high quality, but it also some really derivative crap, some cringe-worthy subplots (school bully, romance) and a terrible ending. I enjoyed it when I read it...
