I liked this ep AND the stickers bit!

I'm really enjoying Ward's descent over the last few episodes, actually.

Garrus was my absolute homie in ME.

The only time I touched any ME campaign after the ending was when I tried to start my paragade FemShep, and lost interest after 15 minutes.

Was that ME2?

Yeah, I tried finally starting my Paragade FemShep after finishing 3…and just didn't give a shit.

The issue wasn't the ghost kid so much as the fact that the choices presented made no fucking sense within the context of the previous 50 hours of story, which directly contradicted everything the ghost kid claimed.

Eh, there was usually an essential humanism to the choices, and they made sense within the context of the story.

Ugh, don't remind me.

We should have expected a god to come out of a machine to offer us a less intellectually interesting knockoff of (ironically enough) Deus Ex's "Pick a box" ending?

I found ME2 vastly overrated from both a gameplay and story perspective, but at least it stuck the landing, rather than ending with a god coming out of a machine to resolve the plot in a fashion that directly contradicted the themes of my entire playthrough.

Yeah, it's "Fuck you, prove me wrong" rather than "Fuck you, I can say what I want."

Mass Effect 3 is the last BioWare game I purchased.

Yeah, I think he was trying to explain why when Dave uses the same "terms" as Daniel Tosh, it's funny rather than offensive.

The only shows I've watched live this season (after finally becoming gainfully employed in December) are Lethal Weapon (with my father) and MasterChef Junior.

Yeah, I've been really disappointed in her last two specials…because I think she's fucking hilarious.

I mean Jesus, that shit from MT313 is one of the most fundamentally illiberal rants I've ever read.

Hey Principal Mullins — You're the man.

I mean…it was pretty clearly an attempt to delineate between when those terms are used in order to punch up, versus when they're used to punch down.

B is the reason that comedians rarely do catch flack for intelligent bits that use offensive terms.
