Producer Tatsuya Matsubara has stated that Chaos; Child will retain the psychotic suspense of Chaos; Head Noah, but will add stronger horror elements. As if these games didn't get dark enough.

I love all the obscure historical/literary humor in Kate's comics (and the artwork reminds me of Quentin Blake, which makes it awesome). Many of her strips really don't have "punchlines" as such (at least, not that I can tell) but the way the characters behave is usually pretty funny to me. I'm racking my brains…

I don't, but I know my mum does. She claims she couldn't watch The Abyss because she felt like she couldn't breathe during some of the scenes.

If I'm waiting where there's computer access, I'm either reading novels/wikipedia articles or writing. If there's no computer access I'll either be meditating or working on stories in my head, depending on how quiet the environment is.

Tea eggs are much more awesome than regular hardboiled eggs. Most Taiwanese restaurants here will give you one alongside your meal if you're getting something like popcorn chicken or pork cutlet.

The character is implied to be male, but this is never stated outright (and Tieria isn't human anyway, so could be genderless for all we know.)

Could be. But ask yourself: Would you really care if it was?

100% agreeing with you there.

Plus you get to ride off into the sunset with Otacon if you fail to save her. That ending always cracked me up.

I don't think it's a blanket cure-all for everyone's stress/anxiety (everyone is different, after all), but I wish someone had taught me to meditate about a decade ago. Someone should have shaken me and said "All that nonsense you worry about? you can train yourself to stop worrying about it. And you will get so much…

I've started meditating more seriously and getting good results from it, which has made me way happier than therapy or legal/illegal drugs ever did. I can't describe how great it is to get relief from racing, anxious thoughts and a habitually pessimistic outlook on life.

I thought this one from Dishonored was not too bad (spoilers ahead, of course:)

That's true, and unsurprisingly the same thing happened in the movie industry. Once it became "okay" to depict gay characters in films you pretty much had to choose between shrieking queens and creepy gay predators. It's better now, but not a whole lot better.

Ocelot. No indication whatsoever that he likes women. And then he kisses Snake during the climactic boss fight at the end of MGS4.

My Taiwanese friend says the fireworks scare away demons and bring good luck for the New Year. The traditional lion dances are meant to have the same effect. And my friend thinks it's no more risky than the running of the bulls, but she says people do die at this thing occasionally.

They think that breasts evolved to advertise sexual maturity. According to this theory (and it's pure speculation of course) quadripedal humans initially looked at butts to determine if someone was fertile (as hormones will change the shape and dimensions), but after we started walking on two legs we needed some kind…

According to my Japanese nerd these girls are moe personifications of WWII Japanese warships. I kid you not. It's a thing going around on 2ch right now apparently.

Uta no Prince-sama actually.

The image was tweeted out by Japanese Twitter user Homomanko, who added a "Shuddup shitty glasses." The image was retweeted over thirty-seven thousand times and spawned a slew of anime art style parodies.

These things! They're to keep the flies off your dinner before you sit down to eat it. Are these a Chinese-only thing (I've only ever seen them in Chinese households) or do other cultures have them?
