Lord Helix has given us Pidgey in bountiful quantity, that we may have comfy feather pillows, and tasty nuggets for dunking in sauce.

Obligatory

Speaking as someone who has to get up at 5:00 in the morning and go to work, I offer a hearty “fuck you” to everyone who prioritizes their personal entertainment over everyone else in the neighborhood.

You’ve been lucky. I’ve had about 50% downtime and even when I’m in game gyms are still VERY glitchy (see this great screenshot of a gym battle... it stayed there until I restarted the game) and catching any Pokemon freezes the game more often than not.

You know, I said to my wife, shortly after Sam was introduced, “That’s GRR Martin right there.” A fat, clumsy, but intelligent boy with more interest in books than fighting. He has been George’s stand-in within the story all along.

the answer is 42. always

It’s really not that simple and clear-cut.

That would be Alanis Morisette Ironic, as in not ironic at all. If Earth had flung it out purposely in attempt to prevent it from causing harm, then it would be ironic.

If it was made of iron and on a collision course with Earth, that would be...

... I won’t say it, you oughtta know.

But if we get lucky, one of its cousins may whiz even closer to Earth,

Relative to us, sure, but when talking about galaxies, using words like “humongous” and “giant” should be reserved for galaxies sizes relative to each other, not puny humans.

Why won’t that industry just reduce CEO salaries, instead of laying people off? A business cares about its employees, apparently.

My argument is that we can’t take any action against any sort of industry or company because of the little people.

Its strange how you don’t really hear the smaller guys complaining that their music is getting distributed for free and how much it sucks that people are starting to go to their shows...

Yeah, when I learned that music piracy left Miley Cyrus homeless for years, I knew my behavior had to stop. The music industry used to be thriving, but now great artists like Adele can barely sell her latest album. Pretty sure that’s what I read anyway, unless I'm making a wrong assumption about the impact of music…

“How to fix what I perceive as wrong with Game of Thrones”

It’s amusing entering a discussion about Dark Souls because 90% of the people talking about how great it is probably cheated heavily through wikis, discussion, and other metagaming. I mean, you don’t have to...I blazed through most of DeSo and DaSo just by grinding. But the reality is, it’s not GREAT game design, it’s…

Yeah, I took issue with some of the control issues (the aforementioned bow) more than some other things, but mostly because I very quickly realized that I was going to be consulting the internet for the majority of the game. I’m pretty sure I’d have given up if this were the 80s (pre-internet), because I don’t have…

Cult-like is probably the perfect term to describe DS fans.

But trial and error is just a cheap way to pad the length of your game, and artificially raise the level of difficulty.
