“Hi guys. We kind of weren’t paying attention and stepped in it. Our bad.”

What up my NNNNGGGHHHAAAA!? It’s alright cuz I’m a zombie and it ends in “A.”

GGG is the perfect example. Not only is he undefeated, he has spectacular KO power. Yet, he still doesn’t have the star power of Mayweather or McGregor. Obviously you need some measure of talent to go with it, but a good talker really helps add to the spectacle.

The Liddell/Couture era—basically the beginning of the TUF era—the UFC was run like WWE in its prime, where you still had big stars, but the midcard acts were compelling. WWE is always at its best when you’re really interested in the tag titles and the midcard feuds and the early TUF era of UFC was like that. Almost…

it occurs to me there may have been a few things here and there that they MIGHT have been able to cut out to lower the need to sell 10 million units just to break even

Get ready to add Marine Le Pen - which will leave Merkel as the last globalist Western leader of a major power. And whatever you hate about NAFTA or the EU or NATO, globalism is an absolutely upward pressure on civil rights in most of the world and contributes to stability and a lack of overt hot wars - an…

Egon!

Doh!

I’m going to guess a smattering of Junji Ito horror manga like: Gyo, Usumaki and Tomie.

I agree.

“Previously, Kotaku reported that the manga’s publisher, however, said it never imagined that a Japanese actress would play the character in the Hollywood version”

Yes but that was said like “it’s a hollywood movie, of course it’s going to star an american actor”

.......A civilian model cyborg sold in asia would be asian in appearance, it doesnt say anywhere in there that the body specifically isnt asian, only that its a generic civilian model on the outside

Mellow and Near got really too coincidental, true. L was by far the best arc. Don’t get me wrong — I was fine with how the L arc ended, but I would have preferred a different direction for the second arc than various people from the same orphanage pursuing Kira.

I really like the Manga, and the show to a degree. But it’s chock full of inner monologues and absurd scheming. The warehouse ending is underwhelming too.

it looks like ...

Great analysis. For me the biggest turnoff (after 100+ hours of Skyrim, several playthroughs of FO3, and a run of FO:NV and Oblivion) is that the main character in Bethesda games invariably has no character. I’ve tried to play them as a character with consistent motivations and goals and personality, and it’s usually…

Except everything you just described was better in earlier incarnations - the previous games were far deeper, had more in-game lore (I mean literally, there were more books in the previous games... which is pitiful considering that a number of them in Skyrim were directly taken from the earlier games for the sake of…

Screen name is on point there.

The elder scrolls has non-archery based combat?

I transitioned ten years ago while working at a Japanese company in the US. At that time, conventional wisdom was that Japanese acceptance of transfolk was both better than that of most Americans and higher than their acceptance of homosexuality, and that matched with my experience. This was not a progressive country…
