To that -- I think they can. But I think it will take some actual effort on their part. Not that slimy, cynical, half-assed trendy bullshit that they thought they could get away with. Rather, I don't think Bioware can do it. I think it can be done. Edit: It really doesn't piss me off...

Yes it was. But there's a difference between a neurological condition and a mental illness. A neurological condition has a definable, quantifiable, physical characteristic and cause. We're finding that many mental illnesses are actually neurological conditions. And some of them ain't...

Restless leg is also a very real thing. I'm not saying there are no bad/improper diagnoses of these conditions ever. I'm just saying those conditions do exist. It's a little like ADHD. We're just not great at the neurological stuff. Yet.

I like Gillian but I gotta say that was a long walk for a short drink. That was some sort of intense psycho-drama.

DA2 and TOR make me happy because they failed. Miserably. That pandering social crusader justice bullshit... I am ecstatic that it failed. Bioware turned into a company ofposeurs. There aren't enough Tanoomba's in the world to make Bioware turn a profit, and that is a very good thing...

Pretending that they aren't is the truer sign of dumb. That's where the argument always tries to deflect, into this puritan boogeyman. Taking a shit is not immoral. But when a bum pops a squat behind the 7-11 you don't stop and think, "How enlightened!" Bodily functions. Take the pussy...

Both of these things are relevant to my interests. I really don't understand the public breastfeeding argument. There are bodily functions which you do not partake in in public spaces in polite society. I don't think it's wrong for a woman to breast feed, I do think there is a place for...

Yeah, it made more sense in DA because you assume that it's taking you a few days as you're just plodding down the road. There's only so much you can play Eye Spy with my little eye.... ANOTHER COW before you turn to gangrape to pass the time. ME lacked that. They could have done a little...

It's really not. It's just a less than perfectly understood syndrome. Medicine isn't magic. Not everything can be fixed. Sometimes we don't even know what the fuck the root cause of the problem is to begin with. And sometimes we find it, and realize there's jack and shit to be done about THAT.

I think the problem is in taking a mythbusters "experiment" as proof of just about anything. Although I did see them make a super-long barrel air gun and shoot a needle of pine straw into a palm tree once, and that was cool -- but you know what, I don't think that really counts as anything...

Yeah. You knew it was gonna happen because it's a trope. It's a trope because that's what happens. And it fucking sucks. It would be an entirely different show if the Mayor wasn't trying to run for Governor. It'd be an entirely different country. We want it to be one way, but it's the...

Probably have to say Deadwood also. I mean it's one of the first episodes that I can even remember, so I guess that puts it among the best. First episodes tend to be somewhat forgettable introductions. It did a great job at setting tone, pacing, characterization. It hit the ground running...

I think even without Snowden the appeal of the Xbone "features" is dubious at best. It's kinda like Microsoft is actively trying to reduce their market share. And they might be doing exactly that.

Troika got absorbed into a couple of other production houses. I believe a few went to Obsidian. But then I am a raging Obsidian fanboi. Punky. Oh punky. Show my your lips. Right on my fingertips! You're to die for.

qwerty is an odd nut. He's really not as horrible as popular opinion would have him. He's just... man, he's an odd nut. It's like that Bachmann/Pelosi thing. I'm not saying qwerty is great.

I'd be surprised is this genre of game took off the way that SEO and apparently Trion are expecting that it might. Minecraft strikes me more like a deviantart platform for a different type. Some really great stuff there and all, but I don't see how you turn this into a corporate moneymaker...

Those EQN nerds are hardcore. They're kinda like internet goths. But not the tall thin pale chick with daddy issues who you're happy to fuck and forget. No, they're the fat, smelly girls who wear KISS makeup and think no one understands them.

Morrigan is more of a villian than Flemeth is. Flemeth is just sort of an elder god. Morrigan is neutral evil.

They weren't american ones... so honestly... who gives a fuck. It's easy. You just lead them more.

sick burn!

Yeah, that's the thing. Time scars make plenty of sense. More sense than the other. I like that explanation. But the problem is that we know The Doctor actually DID something. He had an active part in the time lock, wtf-ever a time lock is supposed to be. We've had two full doctors of...

Avatar begs to differ. As does....

Super Smash Bros?

New Vegas was better than Fallout 3. If Obsidian was working on another fallout, I'd pop wood. A Bethesda fallout release is half-chub, at best. I'd still buy it and play it... but eh, you know it just won't be as good as Obsidian would make it. But the whole things is fake anyway...

^could have been eXXXarc or XxeXarcxX, but resisted temptation and kept it classy. also, has an animated avatar which is pretty sweet. No foolin.

redletter hasn't been dumping to youtube in a while. Geek and sundry also seems spotty with youtube. My guess is that youtube is starting to try to take a cut for hosting pro-am webstuff. Which is only fair, but is also going to price some enterprises out. I can't think the redletter guys...

FORGET BITCOINS. PUT ALL OF YOUR MONEY IN KARMA. REDDIT IPO IS WELL OVER 9000.

About how you spend your money to entertain yourself? I don't think anyone really does care. It's your money, it's your entertainment. Knock yourself out. But if there was any hope of EQ3 potentially, through some act of providence, being any good at all this right here crushes it...

I wonder what the difference is between "solo online" and "solo offline" It sounds mmoISH. That's a good thing. Something needs to be tweaked and experimented with. The standard MMO model is pumping out nothing but turds. Even if you didn't play UO (like me), remember that without UO in...

As soon as you are able to accept that Professional Wrestling is a combination of male dancing, ridiculous marketing, and middle-school shit talking -- and not a sport -- professional wrestling gets fucking awesome. It can get fucking awesome. You still need guys with a good schtick. It's a...

Might have to put this in the spot that new girl used to occupy. Tina Fey endorsed it as 30 Rock was ending. Ironically, that's actually kept me away from it. Weird, cause I thought 30 Rock was great and I generally enjoy Tina Fey's wit. I guess the way that Fey ended Liz Lemon made me...

There's nothing wrong with encouraging girls to read a book. There's nothing wrong with encouraging girls to practice ballet or the violin. Forcing them to do those things is where it can get tricky. Sometimes you have to be able to admit that your daughter is just not athletic or that...

I don't know much about cannon. It seemed to me from watching those episodes that the time lock was exactly what it describes. Time itself is dislocated for whatever events. No time travel in or out of some period defined by the moment. For Time Lords, that basically is prison. Dr. Who...

he used the word discrimination, so i'm not sure if you're average califoranian is going to realize that he just told them to git fuct.

you're, lets pretend that was intentional.

did you not see the articles? I remember it was maybe... less than a year ago, I forget exactly. But it was plastered in different places on the internet. Mostly because it was so fucking bizzare. There was this island they found bones of these little tiny people on where there should...

It's going to work because this is Call of Doody with swerds and gay romances and fuck your nerd shit. That they gave up on the Dragon Age franchise is evidenced by DA2. Droigan is right. If it had been released under another name as just a random stand alone generic FRPG... well, that's...

I'm pretty sure that Tom Baker's Doctor inspired a crazy amount of middle-school AD&D campaigns in the United States. I can see how if you weren't 12 years old watching first generation re-runs of Tom Baker Dr. Who on PBS he might not be considered one of the best ever. I can see that. But...

They're gonna build a bumperkarts track in the rings in about 500 years. You know they will. Bless them. Edit: I'd probably call the potential itself staggering but I wouldn't call it a revelation. Carl Sagan has an episode where he was talking about exactly this on Cosmos. We've...

what test like that prove is that he's not an alien. Which is both good to know, because it would be disturbing if he were, and both bad to know, because it's disturbing that he thought there is such a thing as "white blood". That is know as leading a lamb to slaughter.
