I thought the first game was near perfect. As did the rest of my household. And in our minds, pretty much all they had to do for the 2nd was let the players use the original characters, in addition to the new ones. Making it a requirement to beat the game first would have been fine, just having that ability somewhere…

My best friend had that hyperthymestic syndrome thing, where she could recall things we did and what dates they were. She also found it burdensome, like the woman in the article. She killed herself when she was 25 and I wonder how much it had to do with that. Probably a little, but certainly not all. I always figured…

Yeah, but I think being in Haywire made her famous enough where people, like this article's author, should know her name.

Seriously. When we saw her head, my husband and I were so freaking out excited. She's a great example of woman badass. She's actually strong, being a stunt woman, and she radiates the same interest and joy in fighting and guns that a male action star would. I'm so disappointed to see that not only are people not…

Oh man, the middle ground of handicap and illness. It has that really difficult aspect to it, especially socially. It adds this additional challenge that others tend to not be sensitive to, because the difficulties aren't externally extreme enough for them. It sucks.

You, SON of a bitch. I haven't read all the books yet.

Aren't.

Oh, those poor women. They can't afford any clothes.

I'm curious what you thought of the lack of control in this game. My impression, from reading people talking about it, was that you have no control over the saving and no control over suddenly having supplies stolen and characters killed between battles. I'm a bit of a control freak, but love most of the games you…

Nice. I remember putting in early Marilyn Manson, at the time. Loved that game.

Man, you know what, fuck these people. Not the kid; everyone else. Especially his dad. His dad actually says, in the video, that the boy said he was too tired to keep doing this, after the Riddler (the very first one), and then they pretended like he changed his mind about it. Yeah sure, he changed his mind. Surely no…

Thank you for fighting the good fight. That's awesome of you.

I think it's because she has such a nice smile, but Princess Leia doesn't smile much.

You don't have to explain to them, Leo. We all know you're here because you have the most unusual and strange, calming and lovely, drowsy and amusing face.

Yeah, that's true, partly because the women would have to work for it, but it looks like it's saying that while women aren't naturally as strong in cases where you have a man and woman who both haven't trained their bodies, a woman who has trained would be just as strong. So, it's true that it's uncommon, because of…

"I'm here to ask you one question, and one question only... EXPLOSIONS?"

I don't know much about body strength, but this seems to debunk the idea that women's body strength is actually different.

I hear ya, with being different from the norm. My husband doesn't buy an insane amount of shoes, but more shoes than I think are necessary. I (the wife) hate shopping of all kinds and will wear my shoes until they're falling off my feet, to avoid shopping.

I know what you mean. I'm in NYC and every time it snows, everyone here freaks the fuck out. It's so weird to me, because it wasn't like this 10-15 years ago(?). NY gets snow every winter. Yet every single time it snows now, people act like it's not something that ever happens. This current freakout is confounding me…
