DX-7 was a Yamaha, STUPID!
*plays weird FM synth music*

The diecast, larger Super Go-Bots were kind of cool. The motorcycle guy even had rubber tires, which made it even a pretty cool motorcycle toy. Early Transformers were also metal, though. My first one was mostly metal. I wonder if it's still around anywhere…

I assumed "meaningfullessness."

They just need to make a feature length film out of the opening scene of DC Universe Online. That's probably the best superhero movie I've seen in years.

Terrible, combative marriages leading up to divorce are bad for kids. It's difficult to do research on it for myriad reasons, but divorce itself can be good for kids in the long run if, as you say, the marriage is contentious. If a couple can manage to have an amicable divorce (on the surface, anyway) the negative…

Yeah, but once you get to Actual Mom Of A Late Teen age, you're cast as a grandma along side a husband who is 30 years older.

Ohh I thought it was just a sort of a hussy white. I'll have to pay closer attention next time!

well, white. For reasons the blue ring turns link white.

"Go to the next room…"

The time traveling always seemed a bit weird to me… what's the point of time traveling if you come out older? What if you time traveled too far into the future? Would you come out dead? What was happening while Link aged? It seemed like it was a compromise between designers who couldn't fully settle on Kid Link or…

I have a string of rage-stroking comments on the AV Club or Gameological review for it. It spends over an hour treating the player like an infant who has never played a video game before. It tells you how to solve puzzles before you even try them… I liked the combat, but it seems like it's so sporadic and quick that…

I think the score of Lyne's film does helps convey a certain mood that comes across in the novel. I think that the main theme (at least I think it is, it's the one that plays when we see Humbert driving, crying, and swerving) could have told the story to a certain extent. It has a kind of wilting melody that's sad and…

Or we could even have a D20 system so you can have critical hits and critical fumbles!

D- is the thing that nobody will like. It's been hashed out several times.

I thought it was well-established that Fs were a special kind of awful. Have you seen that video on YouTube of the kid jumping down the stairs on his skateboard? He lands after what looks like an 8-10 foot drop, breaks his board and screams. His friends don' teven seem to give a shit. it was a failure… a D- jump. Then…

Yeah, that's it. The vinyl version was scored a lot better; that's what I was saying. It was pretty terrible sounding.

Yes. The "same recording" means jack shit because a CD and vinyl master can be wildly different. Do a quick googling of the dynamic range database and look up some of your favorite albums. You'll see that different CD releases are mastered differently, and vinyl is usually different from any of the digital. It's not a…

Wait. We have to decide where "high definition" begins. I've read that noticeable differences basically end at CD quality. Sometimes i have bought "high definition" (24bit/96kHz) music, and cannot tell a difference for the life of me. However, if I buy a high bitrate MP3 (320kHz or so) it does sound different from CDs…

"Disco-inspired art direction"? I want to go to THAT disco!

When they tried to scram the reactors at Chernobyl, the reactors had gotten too hot and burned the carbon and ended up making it reflect neutrons instead of absorbing them, which actually sped up the meltdown. I think it was a combination of the heat and the poor quality of the carbon to begin with… but still!
