It'd take a long time to explain, but the Eagles are basically minor gods.

What is a man?

Yes, seriously.

Like I said in my previous post...he knows how shitty society can be. There's another arc (which I won't recap in detail) that deals with a culture who, to keep its city nice and pure and clean, throws everything it considers garbage outside its walls. Including the people it dismisses as garbage, who make their home…

Japanese society is characterized by having a lack of people with critical thinking skills. If Oda does think we are not alone in this world does he ever critically write about, say, neoliberalism or misoginy?

Funny...I was constantly reaffirming, taking care of, etc. my late girlfriend. She was also the most feminine woman I've ever dated. Two exes (that I'm friends with still) told me independently that I'd make some woman a good wife someday. I guess even when I don't realize it, I end up taking on a "woman's role" in a…

My favorite part of Moxxi is her hidden depths, and I'm not talking about where the hell she stores the guns she gives you. Like her talking about Motor Momma, where she makes an innuendo that goes too far and grosses her out, or the time in The Pre-Sequel where you catch her wearing a mechanic's jumpsuit and singing…

You have an excellent point that I think needs to be emphasized: Her boobs are part of her character.

I think I have one that will finally top the pumpkin seed story. I hope you agree and decide to post it as its own article:

Wow. You're...bringing back memories all of the sudden.

Nnnope. Not grosser than my first day in the Yongsan ER, where we had a tummy tuck that went septic. That was the single grosses thing I've ever seen. Glad I got it out of the way on the first day.

And you know, I can dig that too. You know why you feel the way you do. That's more than 90% of the world. I also have a breakdown when I try to understand online misogyny, because I absolutely cannot comprehend any aspect of it, no matter what angle I look at it from.

I've been waiting to use this one

She chose poorly. But it's not one choice.

I think she loved the idea of her child, and who she thought her child should be, but not the reality of who she was. It's sadly common, not just parent to kid but in all sorts of relationships. I refuse to write most people off as evil, though there are of course exceptions. I try to understand people, even the worst…

Here's what I think the government should do (if Congress wasn't filled with right-wing authoritarians):

It's not that I didn't believe women, I just never really thought about it before I started MMOing (I don't really anymore, but I come back from time to time). I am one of those types who doesn't just create a "toon," I create a character which is why I favor superhero MMORPGs (I pronounce it "more pigs"). I prefer…

This is the year I lost the love of my life.

They decided that the sort of retro-class and sex appeal that is associated with the fedora would be imparted on them by simply wearing one.

I've said it before, and I will say it again: As typed words become more and more important in our society, we will more and more realize their limitations in communication. As we realize this, written language will around come full circle and we will increasingly communicate in neo-hieroglyphs.
