At this point there is little that can be done other than changing the venue. It’s too close to the games.

These properties are part of the zeitgeist

It’s not up to you, don’t you see that? If I am an artist I own my creation, and I can decide for myself who has to pay what - if anything - to access that creation.

That’s lovely, but can’t you see that others trying to make a living off their creations aren’t exactly happy with the idea of people not paying for the art they produce?

I’ve done it more than you have, but not in 20 years. I drink a lot and eat in a lot of challenging places in a lot of countries, too. I know people who do it practically on a weekly basis, though.

Utter nonsense. I’ve lived in several countries with universal health care and that is simply not true.

I haven’t read Xenogenesis yet, but I recently read the Parables books for the first time and was blown away. What a powerful writer.

I just wish they would make another Dynasty Tactics game in any language! Loved those games.

The problem with that is it requires all governments to be in on the plot. Why would a country with socialized medicine like Sweden want to keep a lid on a cancer cure? It’d save the country a lot of money.

Maybe it’s designed to be hurled, not fired?

I’m playing Chrono Trigger DS right now!

Why the heck do you need to drink two beers with dinner then get behind the wheel? Can’t people have just a tiny bit of self-restraint?

Really? I quite liked it, saw it in the theater.

Great list, but Insurrection is the worst for me. Terrible movie, and it’s aged really badly, too.

ME TOO. I complained to the dentist by going “Ahh ahh AHHH” and I remember him saying “You’re not awake, be quiet.” After that I really realized I was waking up so said “Ahh AHH AHHHHH” after which he finally sedated me again.

National championships.

Made the jump after the second election of W, haven’t regretted it at all.

Yeah, but they confiscated her passport, and everyone knows how the US borders are rock-solid penetration proof.

Better to be hit by a round that’s been slowed by passing through a door than one that is traveling full speed!

I look at Tumblrs a lot, never run across any of that. I think you’re just hanging around the wrong places.
