Sexuality and the feelings it elicits exist on a spectrum. I'm not saying that some of the people commenting on the achievement aren't simply homophobic, but neither am I going to say that all of them are or that every gay person views heterosexual intimacy with pure, dispassionate ambivalence. Nor do I think it's…

Exactly. To make it a joke or to use it to elicit a homophobic reaction is in itself very intolerant. It's like a group of bros telling 'no homo' gay jokes. It isn't some kind of admission that there's nothing wrong with homosexuality, it's making gay people into a punchline. Granted, it's going to be just as hard to…

I don't think it's unreasonable for straight people to be uncomfortable viewing homosexual content, just as I imagine the converse is true sometimes. I'm sure some homosexual people might think 'ew gross' when presented with heterosexual content, in which case they are going to feel uncomfortable a lot of the time…

I've never owned an Apple product in my life. Take that as an endorsement of evil for the PC, or a damning indictment of the Mac as not even fit for the devil.

I know about suppressing fire, I just know it isn't what this kid thinks it is.

I think that either one will be problematic when it takes itself too seriously. A game that is arbitrarily mature rings hollow and can be anything but mature in effect. Worse, a cheerful and colorful game that holds itself too strictly to being innocuous and pure ends up being like some kind of sterile,…

You should go as the one that surfs on liquid hot magma.

I'll give you point blank, but it still doesn't have finesse.

Good argument. Discredit both of us at the same time. At the end of the day, though, I'm not the one who thinks that you can move and cover yourself at the same time or clear a room by yourself while dual wielding pistols, so it's obvious which one is the CoD Ranger.

yeah actually there is, its called covering fire, please learn about it.

That's another good trope, but of course in real life if you were trying to clear a room full of armed men by yourself you would be dead before you got through the doorway.

It also better be just a few feet away from you.

No, that is the defining reason. When you fire at a target you intend to hit that target. Firing with one weapon in each hand pretty much shuts that idea right down.

There is no point during a firefight when you're not firing without at least the barest intention of hitting something. You also never cover yourself while you change positions, you cover other people while they move. And when you move the point is to get out of avenues of fire as quickly as humanly possible, not walk…

You wouldn't even be accurate enough to keep someone pinned down and you'd be just as likely to hit your partner as either target.

Nah I'm talking about combat situations.

With what? A pistol? An Automatic weapon? You're just about as likely to hit whatever you're covering as you are the target. When was the last firefight you were in that you gained this experience?

Depends on your TV.

That, or doing a combat roll. Or a tactical knee slide.
