Ugh, I know. The premise and engine have so much promise, how did it all fall apart?

Aww, c'mon, how can you beat the moment when you come back to Kharak? With freaking Adagio For Strings in the background?

Walking Dead: Season 1, I think, is the first game that really took me aback as to how attached I got to the characters. Episode 3 was freaking rough, man. You never knew where it was going to take you.

I mostly agree (oh man, Aliens vs Predator 2 was good, and World in Conflict is criminally overlooked), with a few exceptions:

I doubt they believe most of what they spew (see: Ted Cruz's blatant pandering to his lunatic fringe, while obviously not believing a word of it), but I think the overall problem is lack of empathy; they don't care about the "other" anyway because they've never met one.

The wasted taxpayer dollars are the mostly northeastern economic conservatives' down payment for their alliance with mostly midwestern and southern religious rubes. I figure they consider it money well spent.

From a straight guy who online dates, it isn't just dudes who do this.

Counterpoint.

I know that trip, if I ever find myself walking home at night behind a woman who is alone I deliberately slow my gait to let her "get away." The only problem is I'm fairly tall, so I have to either stop or sort of awkwardly shuffle.

I think you're on to something there. Religion in this country made the choice of ranging themselves with a political ideology during the 70's and 80's, that is conservatism and the Republicans. Well, now they've done it, and alienated the left-leaning among the generation born during the culture wars.

Photography strikes me as one of those professions where it's really easy to be bad at it, but ridiculously hard to be anything better than average.

Frankly, I'm surprised that it took this long for obesity to become a problem. This is the first era of near-universal availability of food (in the Western World at least), like, ever. It's an actual biological imperative to consume as much as we can; in nature there's basically no assurance that the meal you're…

This is absurd tripe. I hope she was forced to do this and given a word count, because jeez.
