Do you think I'm an SJW, Quaid?

That's more like it. Answer: I never did. Frankly, I'm kind of surprised people have decided to label me as such. Apparently on Rerolled, unless you're at the ready with your torch and pitchfork the moment somebody says something stupid on Twitter, you're an SJW. Go figure.

So far I picked up Geometry Wars, the Oddworld Pack, Bully: Scholarship Edition, Adventures of Shuggy, Rocketbirds, Blade Kitten, Hatoful Boyfriend, Raiden III, Momodora III, Nidhogg, Rock of Ages, Hero Siege, Pixel Heroes: Byte & Magic, Gods Will Be Watching, and Shadow of Mordor. Luckily...

Gerb, I am more than happy to answer your questions. However, "What is your story?" is a bit too grand in scope for me to be able to know how to answer. Can you break it down into bite-size questions that aren't so nebulous?

I was answering you stupid question, Quaid. I've already said that the guy in question could try to make a case that he was raped if he was so inclined (apparently he's not, so I'm not sure why you and Lith keep pushing that angle), but that it would be difficult (as it always is in "too drunk...

Lith: "Yeah, the hilarity here is this is the guy that spent nearly 2 weeks arguing about absurdly low levels of intoxication made it sexual assault. But a guy black out drunk? Well; we don't really know if he was conscious and could consent! hah, at this point it honestly wouldn't shock me...

Have we reached the "avoid the issue and make baseless insults" phase already? I ain't mad, bro. I called you out on your bullshit and you're putting your fingers in your ears singing "la la la la". I've seen it happen before so I shouldn't be surprised, but I still kind of am. Since you...

So you have trouble believing the parts of the story you made up? Great job being skeptical, Lith.

Don't get me wrong, Lith, it seems very likely this is a false rape accusation. I just think that's clear enough without having to outright lie about the facts. I know you get giddy as a school girl whenever you find a story of a man being victimized by a woman, but try not to let your...

You know blacked-out is not the same as passed out, right?

Lith: "This was posted a few days ago, but now it's shown up in a few papers but I'm still having a hard time believing it's true--it's just too ridiculous. Man was passed out drunk, girlfriends roomate blew him while he was drunk--sent a text literally stating she molested the guy while he was...

Lith: "Ghazi member wrote a letter to the admins pleading for KiA to be taken down. Amazing people are this delusional. When he discusses harassment, he links a thread where Anita was on the Colbert report and a bunch of people were talking about how she was wrong. That, discussing a public...

Cantatus: "It's hard for a site to take the stance that shitAmerican Inventorssay should be allowed on Reddit without being jumped on for being racist." You don't say? Whatever happened to "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes"?

Phazael: "I love how a few celebrity nudies that they took and clouded are going to end up getting some guy tossed in pound me in the ass prison while a lot more ludicrous shit barely gets investigated." Last line of the article: "Mr Hererra has not been charged with any crimes and the FBI...

Ooh, my fan club is vocalizing! Gravy: "I heard that if you hold tanoomba against your ear, and be really quiet, you can hear the ocean." Caribbean queen! Now we're sharing the same dream... And our hearts they beat as one... No more love on the run. Noodlemod: "Tanoomba is a...

To The Edge: You'll likely never read this, but don't take the "ditch her crazy ass" advice too seriously. From what you said it sounds like you love her and were very seriously considering marrying her (unless you were bullshitting about wanting to buy a ring). It also sounds like she (at...

Thanks, that was sweet of you to say.

Mist: "Being a white knight to get laid is understandable from the behaviorist perspective, but to assuage some made up feeling of guilt it is not." Being a white knight to get laid WOULD be understandable if it actually got anybody laid. Turns out "white knight" is just a lazy label assigned...

Quaid: "1. There are numerous debates that are ongoing where detractors of the progressive left are deemed 'hate groups' for opposing them, or even daring to seek further data for a more complete picture. The debates surrounding the effectiveness of SRS and the campus rape epidemic are two cases...

Some highlights from the analysis of the Sulkowicz piece: "Sulkowicz is challenging the viewer/reader to understand not the difference between an actual rape that happened to her and a simulated rape in the video, but to understand the difference between their own definition of rape, how...

Astral Projection: "Here's analysis by someone I assume is one of Emma's supporters." Excellent analysis, thank you for sharing it. Bisi: "SJW feels at work, ladies and gents" Ummm.... You do understand that art IS about "feels", right?

Quaid: "Only a fool would advocate allowing the type of non-discourse radical 'progressives' are advocating to continue unchallenged. Using claims of racism, sexism, homophobia etc to silence potential debate isn't in the spirit of the political environment of a democratic society. Winning a...

Siddar: "This is another reason why people who say ignore the blue hairs are wrong. If you ignore them they will just wait a few months until people forget the stupid shit they have said and then try and worm there way back with a new revised brand of crazy." ...And?

Palum: "Right I totally agree with that sentiment - except when it's that easy to gain 'victim' status it's going to be rampantly abused. I mean literally, go on normal date, start fooling around, mid-sex claim "I don't want to do this anymore!" and just keep banging dudes until one doesn't stop...

Palum: "I just... there's so much absurdity in any practical application of this 'at will consent'." What the fuck planet do you live on? Cad: "Whats stupid is that if she decides later that she didn't like it or regrets it, it becomes post-hoc rape. Which is obviously BS." Indeed it...

Thanks for the "feels" update, Chan.

Palum: "If you can withdraw consent in the middle of (regular) sex you are basically declaring someone a rapist ex post facto. The carnal knowledge has already occurred." Lolwut. Excidium: "Take the time to read the complaint. Cunt deserves jail time for this shit." You know that's...

Well, for many people (certainly including most professional reviewers and myself), cost wasn't really a factor at all. We got to enjoy it on its merits independently of its SRP. It wasn't hard for them to see the positive, it wasn't hard for me... Maybe the secret is to either get the game for...

I guess it was just an accident that you missed the second half of that quote: "See, here is the real twist, were I a lesbian, my morning routine would be deemed as "IMPRESSIVE", "OUTSTANDING", "GRANDIOSE", or any other adjective truly devoid of meaning when it comes to modern gaming." No...

http://reason.com/blog/2015/06/05/yes-emma-sulkowicz-appeared-in-a-pornogr Pretty reasonable look at the current situation. Best line: "Both critics and supporters of Sulkowicz will probably try to read something into her decision to make this film, and maybe that's exactly what she wants."

(about what happened, at least)

Khorum: "but both Nungesser and Mattress Girl admit they had consensual sex AFTER that incident anyway" Can anyone back this up with something? I'm coming up short. Gavinmad: "If you continually text the person after the alleged rape talking about how you can't wait to have sex...

Lurkin McDirkin: "Hey Tanoomba, does it ever wear on you that 100% of people who encounter you on this forum think you are completely wrong and insane? I wonder why you continue to fight what you obviously consider to be the good fight while everyone around you thinks you are (at least)...

Fana "you just grabbed random quotes from people who obviously don't like the game and summed them all up as rabid anti-sjw. what the fucking retard is wrong with you, your list is as inconsistent as you are." Ha ha Jesus Christ. You've got to be kidding me here, right? I have shown you...

Well, Fana, I actually did provide evidence. Remember that long, long list of quotes from Gone Home user reviews? The list that shows that the main reason it had so many user reviews written about it at all was because a bunch of anti-SJWs looking for a fight decided to politicize the good...

Fana: "no i'm just demonstrating that they can write positively about anything, just an example of skill that analyzing an article is a waste of time on some level. why they chose gone home for game of the year probably has more to do with an ideology that's out of touch with the general gaming...

Fana: "I mean the same writers will sometimes tell you that they have to write fluff pieces for games they don't like more or less for payola, if we take them at their word there then we can just assume any competent writer can write appropriate accolades and praise for nearly anything within...

Lith: "Except if environmental and mechanic story telling were the main factors in GoTY--one would have expected Spec Ops The Line to win GoTY in 2012 from both these companies. As it's broadly considered masterful in it's modern retelling of Heart of Darkness and it uses both in game mechanics...

Popular opinion here seems to be that Gone Home was undeserving of its accolades. Khorum jumped onto that bandwagon with his comment. I think the flak it gets is based more on people trying to combat what they see as SJWs taking over gaming than any inherent flaws in the game itself. The...

I think you meant Khorum, not Khalid. He didn't say much, it was just an underhanded jab at Gone Home that plays into the same narrative that's so popular here and among many anti-SJWs. I find that particular brand of smarminess worth countering, so I did. Get over it.
