I've always been a little confused here.

I didn't say witches cause violence. I said "...moms of America love Bayonetta..." with a spin of sarcasm. Bayonetta features a hyper-sexualized main character with improbable anatomy. I can tell you from experience that the "moms of America" go into panic about sex and uncomfortably close crotch shots a lot more…

Many American's might roast a turkey once, maybe twice a year. Pancakes are far more frequent. We make pancakes every Sunday in our house.

And the moms of America love Bayonetta, right?

We had a brief discussion about cable Internet.

I got a Dreamcast on day one. I loved the thing, and after completing Shenmue, it carried my roommates and I through long hours not working on projects, but playing Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Soul Calibur.

I tried to make my high school in Doom, but got a bit overwhelmed. Especially since my school composed of several buildings that weren't connected.

Games can be an outlet, sure. A person predisposed to violence will likely enjoy playing violent games. Better shooting people in the virtual world than the real one.

In conclusion? Video games have absolutely nothing to do with the motives of school shooters. Games are entertainment like anything else, and the absurdity of using games as a scapegoat to draw attention away from real issues is obvious.

Nope. You can't Xbox Live. "Xbox Live" being the verb in the sentence here. Microsoft is now requiring pure gold in order to use Skype. Getting greedy.

Right. They forgot a period though. "...you can't Xbox Live. Gold is required to use Skype..."

Enlightening.

I love how Valve is reaching out feelers to test the waters of different things and experiment. Steam is an ever-evolving platform that can only get better as time goes on.

While it would eliminate cool moments like this, I can't help but think of a system that would make it more "realistic." (But less fun?)

In the US, if you try to play hero they'll just fire you, even if your heroics foil the robbery.

I recall a Dreamworks movie about Vikings who ride dragons, yet they all have Scottish accents for some reason.

If she were intentionally parodying a stereotypical Japanese person, then I would say it was racist. This is not racist. It's not accurate, but it's not racist. There's nothing wrong with it.

It's made mostly from whitewood, and while it won't freeze enemies like it does in the game, it's still got a "cool" effect of it's own and-oh God, I'm sorry.

It's a sort of slang word for "small person".
