Ignoring the fact that all this was presented in the form of a pretentious hissy fit...

Except that that isn't how we define a "rape joke". It's a highly negative phrase because it is directed at something which makes light of rape, which is a distinctly bad thing. If merely mentioning the word rape in a joke, regardless of context, is enough to make something a rape joke, then a rape joke is no longer…

True. And, of course, the OP is highly unlikely to ever acknowledge that he was wrong and move on. He should really be more like Mike.

The way I recall it happening is he made an ignorant comic, someone who wasn't attacking him took the time to explain the difference between sex as a biological construct and gender as a social construct, and then he went "oh okay" and made a donation.

Males have penises and females have vaginas. That's biology. Men, women, and gender, on the other hand, are a social construct. Historically, social gender is tied to biological sex because specific gender roles have been tied to biological sex. However, since we're (luckily, in my mind) getting to a point where a…

Then why'd you post it?

First of all, those exaggerations were made by two different people. I, by the way, am a third person.

Lies. Lies and slander.

DS had a 7-year run. Dunno where in the hell you pulled 3 from.

I will never understand why the Mona Lisa still has a place in the Louvre while superior art like that cat goes undisplayed.

Dear god that cat is mesmerizing.

Dammit, Krieger.

Being an 87 year old who leaves loaded firearms around the house with an 8 year old kid they don't bother to observe, however...

That gameplay bit at the end doesn't have a virtual joystick. Looks like touch to move, like the DS Zeldas.

Well, it is the norm. But being the norm doesn't mean that it's a good thing, or that we shouldn't be trying to force a change in the norm. I'm going to be trying it out, but probably not for a month or two since I'd rather wait for the teething to settle down. And prompting that kind of behavior isn't good for any…

I'm another big RPG fan, especially JRPGs, with no interest in FPSs. I also happen to be one of the people who think Knack looks pretty boring. The trailers paint a story that looks like it takes a lot of influence from Michael Bay's Transformers (not a good thing), and the 15 minute gameplay trailer from E3 doesn't…

OP's second post was yesterday at 10:43 pm. Your reply was today at 11:06 am. The timestamps are right on the posts.

Oh man.

I'm fairly sure that sad state has been going on for pretty much all of recorded human history.
