Sonic got it all wrong. We didn't want a hedgehog with attitude, we wanted one with cuteness.

Some of these look really familiar from the days I used to live next door to a Korean food restaurant. But I couldn't tell you the name of the dishes anymore, I'm sorry to say. Half the time I would order something from the menu I had no idea what it was going to be. And the translations of the menu items into English…

Perhaps that is the best he can afford.

Except when you say consoles are better. Then the Internet portal to Hell opens, and screeching PC Master harpies spill forth from its bowels.

Paul Signac disagrees with you

Honestly, once someone says the wrong lyrics, I can't unhear them. The real lyrics are lost forever.

That's the point. Racism is defined as an institutionalized, culture-wide belief in the inherent inferiority of another race. That doesn't apply here. It really is a very well written article, you should read it before dismissing it.

Oh, I agree one hundred percent there. Despite the fact that prostitution and sex work in general can be problematic theoretically and empirically, using "prostitute" and "whore" as pejoratives does nothing to fix it and only serves to demean people. The same goes for "stripper" or "porn star." Which is especially…

You should read this. It's a very good article about the history of "reverse racism" and why it doesn't exist, and the difference between racism, prejudice and discrimination, which are different.

Honestly, I'm not really celebrating the demise of a game company, but I can't resist posting this:

Probably not the best analogy, considering how pissy the prejudiced idiots got over Miles Morales. Apparently, physical appearance is tantamount to the character's "legacy."

If one really wanted Santa Claus to be physically "accurate," he would have to be a 4th century Greek bishop. And Jesus would have to look like a middle-eastern Jewish man from 2000-years ago.

I've been playing fighting games since the early 90's, and this is still me.

Me too. Can't be bothered to go to practice mode in my off time and learn the 12-button combos to pull off the ultimate moves.

I beg to differ.

I agree. In a perfect world, prostitution would happen safely between two consenting adults who want to be there, who have chosen this line of work out of multiple options, and have not been coerced or abused, and who respect each other. But we know that this is often not the case, the reasons for which are complex…

Okay, I'm going to brace myself against the inevitable, but I'm really trying to have a polite debate here. What about feminists and women in general who do not think that prostitution is necessarily always okay? It seems like today in feminism, being critical of sex-work is shut down immediately and shamed as being…

You make a decent point. Ultimately it is impossible to know their relationship and how they really feel about one another. But your idea that she is a reflection of himself and therefore is held in the same wildly high regard and expectations is intriguing. Still, I can't help but think that he must actually care…

THANK YOU.
