Well you also need a complete lack of agency.

You made it further into the series than I did, but I'm going to go ahead and say yes, I guaran-fucking-tee that Moraine came back.

The sex isn't really the creepy part. The creepy parts are when he:

Oh God, I found the best love letter in a used book one time (not just in the book, but written in the cover as a dedication) — it was already super intense, desperate, and creepy, and then the kicker, at the end: "Happy Two Week Anniversary, Baby." I laughed and laughed.

People always seem to overlook the fact that Danny changed too — he shows up to the fair in a letterman's jacket ready to try to be the all-American athlete-type suited to sweet Sandy. Admittedly, that is rather instantly abandoned the second she shows up in a catsuit, but still give him some credit for committing to…

I'm not so much worried about people thinking "So THIS is how you do BDSM" as I am about people thinking "So THIS is what romance is!" Take out the BDSM and you have still have a creepy-as-shit relationship painted as every woman's fairy tale.

SPOILERS I GUESS BUT WHO REALLY CARES?

They do, in fact, go through with it, and the sex scene between Hooper and Mrs. Brody is especially gross.

Every time I start to believe that, I remember that Jay led the cops to Hae's car. That's the bit I can't get past to seriously consider any suspect other than Jay and/or Adnan (probably both).

I think not being able to easily distinguish between Important Missions and sidequests is actually an awesome component of the game. You're trying to build a life for your family in a strange city that you don't want to see go to hell like your last home. You're a fucking immigrant. You shouldn't always be clear on…

Not kittens! Anders had a kitten!

For what it's worth, I like DA2 a lot. Yes, the dungeon designs are insanely repetitive, and yes it'd be nice if there were more areas to explore, but somehow even those flaws suit the "small stakes" of the game (not that the stakes are actually that small, but you're not out to save the world or anything, just carve…

Curiously, I love football but can't watch boxing — I don't like to see two people hitting each other. Doublethink is awesome.

It's a tribute to John Teti that I would read a baseball column if he wrote it.

Call me crazy, but I don't want my last act on Earth to be to leave my corpse intact to shamble around eating people — or lie handcuffed to a radiator until someone gets too close and then see above re. eating people.

God damn you. I don't know either, but now I hear that voice in my head too and can almost remember where it's from.

Damnit! My sister can get away with that crap too because she has really thick hair. Hell, her hair looks best when she hasn't washed it in three or four days. If I go 24 hours without washing my hair I look like a meth addict.

Luke: "I'll scout ahead with Clem."

This seems a good enough place as any to ask:

Well yeah, but Kenny destroyed the last group she was in and would probably continue to do so, so she would only ever have Kenny (and Useless Baby). Kenny was actively detrimental to Clem's survival, assuming survival hinges on finding a group of people to trust (and I'd say spiritual survival does depend on that, if…
