The 90s was almost 20 years ago now. (Well, if you lived through them) The “Back in my day” thing was used for parents of kids in the 80s who lived through it in the late 60s and 70s.

Are we really unaware of the actual temporal limits of that phrase :P ?

Surely dragging a top of the line PC weighing in at maybe 20lbs is easier than the monstrosities we lugged around in the 90s that easily doubled that weight.

How come women can’t go sleeveless when Paul Ryan is allowed to go spineless?

I think it would be an elegant solution if not for one thing: voice communications really only work through a headset, and if you have a headset connected to your phone you aren’t listening to game sound. You CAN buy the extra thing to feed game sound and voice through to your ears at the same time, but now you’re…

Pearl looks so damn creepy.

As a programmer, I can’t believe they didn’t just tag the doors when they were originally added to the game. Ideally the dev tools would’ve already had the functionality built in, but someone early on should’ve realized that not all doors are the same and accommodated for that.

From what I remember, Octolings were completely antagonistic to Inklings and were completely separate from Inkling society. I could be wrong since it’s been years, but the lore scroll things you can find really strongly imply against what you’re saying.

Kesha can sing, folks. She is very talented, I love her and can’t wait to buy this album.

Man, it probably sucks to be a Pearl fan because there seems to be near-universal agreement that Marina is better.

This is simply powerful and inspiring. I’ve always liked club song Kesha, but this is an awesome anthem (in every sense) of finding inner strength in the darkness, of resilience as the demons consume you, having the bravery to seek out liberation from the cage, and especially reach an acceptance of life and refusing…

Oh my sweet girl, I’m so proud. I can’t stop crying.

Wow. I am deeply impressed with Kesha right now. That primal scream is everything.

I end up in most of the no-point spots most of the time. XD

Mao forbid anything but tens of thousands of ethnic Han Chinese flood an area anywhere in the periphery of the great People’s Republic of China.

My guess is that this is a whole new timeline stemming from Skyward Sword.

I know this doesn’t exactly apply to this story, but it’s been gnawing at me all weekend. I went to a friends house for an early fourth party and got roped into a political conversation with a conservative couple (friend of a friend type). It, of course, turned ugly very quickly. I wanted their honest thoughts on how…

I felt like the chief objection to Sansa’s rape was that they panned the camera to Theon’s reaction, as if the trauma was his and not hers. In the long term, they did recover from that unfortunate directing choice and bear out the full weight of what Sansa went through from her POV. It’s still frustrating that most…

DLC always has dubious canon placement, regardless of the game in most cases.

An important counter argument to the “Teach a man to fish” ideal is: A) The man you’re trying to teach to catch fish lives in a desert, B) doesn’t have the tools to fish, and C) he can make more for himself by getting training as a carpenter, mechanic or whatever his specific position in the world requires. D) He is a …
