I need to play a good game of catch-up. I'll probably get a little distracted and play some Snatcher. I had always heard its name and since it's basically Hideo Kojima's riff on Bladerunner (win^2) I couldn't say no to DLing it.

Heh, I totally see how you read my statement and that actually makes way more real sense of the words than what I meant.

Well, the Room is classic. This is a different sort of monster because it's hard to tell how intentional it is. It's more of a contemplation on the philosophy of awful rather than a show of potently undiluted awful like the Room.

Getting a lot of Pig-Man here.

I was like, "it's not that bad" and then I hit the end was like "oh..."

I hadn't even thought about how this could be used in computing. Though I'm sure we're a billion years away from seeing this used in anything consumers can get their hands on (heck, by the time this would be economically feasible, there might be multiple other mediums by which to make teeny tiny things) it's awesome…

Yeah, I'd like to see that too; how many of the minds behind the classics are still around, you know?

That's a pretty awesome chart. It brings me certain fanboy joy to see how so many of the original staff went to become ArenaNet (those dudes are just impressively smart). Jesus christ though WoW. It just vomited developers out of Blizzard (though I suppose if I got rich/famous from a game I might run off to try and…

Yeah it's pretty sad though I don't know how much better other genres are when they use real world nationalities.

Oh, definitely check out his stand-up or anything by Derrick Comedy on Youtube. He's also pretty damn solid on Community.

I just got back from Donald Glover filming his next comedy special. Umm... awesome.

That guy seems extra-cool. Just really relaxed and positive. You have to appreciate it.

Picking up hacked turrets? Not that I wasn't already, but I'm sold.

To be devil's advocate (is that an insult when you are defending a person? :P) we're all racist and ethnocentrist. It's inescapable. Heck, both you and I are judging Bastal pretty harshly for having different cultural moorings than we do. All one can do is try to be aware of their own biases and take control of…

I was heavily playing up my response for my own fun and out of annoyance but "exotic" always carries with it some level of "normal versus abnormal" ideology. The only way it can be used without marking someone/something as abnormal is if it is used in the phrase "exotic to ____" because then you are talking about its…

I haven't played DA2 but the thief woman is just a human though, correct?

I am not up on the stuff happening around DA so I don't know the context for it all, but he sounds at least as honest as he is jerky (and real honesty and jerkiness can easily go hand in hand).

She's brown-esque so, like the elf she is hardly human at all. *looks in mirror and spits; slips on KKK hood and wanders off*

I am really impressed with Gaider. The privilege of the "majority" (quotes because the majority has less to do with a head count and more to do with power position) and the odd relationship of that majority to that privilege is a simple and constant feature of our society and yet so many people seem to be totally…

Quad Sli... *my computer and I share an awkward moment as desire for another machine creeps across my face*
