The "problem" with Steam review bombing is merely a tiny subset of a larger problem that is afflicting society at large. That problem is that people can't stop themselves from hijacking one thing in order to attack completely different things they don't like. It afflicts all sides of the spectrum, but it is a more

This. And also Superman figuring out a way to save the day WITHOUT killing people or having to ‘compromise’ his ethics.

Because the nature of the business model, the merchandise, and (frequently) the employees all contribute to the conclusion that Gamestop is - in fact - an outhouse designed to accommodate human waste.

No - I understood your point perfectly. Just because you disagree with me does not mean that I did not fully and completely understand you.

Profanity is by definition coarse, crude, and offensive. If the words were not coarse, crude, or offensive, then they would not be profane.

"This may be because, as some will tell you, truth tends to skew to the left; others will tell you that this is symptomatic of a successful Jewish and/or elite plot to monopolize television, or just the inevitable endpoint of the pussification of America."

So its the "Solar Freaking Roadway", but going to Mars.

Yeah - they were kind of inconsistent about the distribution and production on the MP Seekers. I mean - MP Skywarp? They must have made about a BILLION of those things because they were sitting in shelves at Wal-Marts all over the nation for weeks. I bought two MP Skywarps for $25 each on clearance.

Ooo - MP Thundercracker... Nice score there. I wish I had one, but they never seemed to make it out to where I'm at.

I don't know. The die-cast 80s Transformers were mostly confined to the very very very very first Transformers toys. Once you got out of that first 'wave' of releases, the amount of die-cast metal in Transformers quickly plummets to almost nothing and by 1985 they were pretty much all plastic.

Sorry - thought you'd have one already. :)

The Combiner Wars line has a pretty good Leader Class version of Megatron...
