Well, I certainly hope you never get what you're holding your anus wide open for, for my sake. But if it happens, I'll try to feel better that your chubby, white, unmolested taking-peace-for-granted bones were literally welcoming it. China uber alles of us — fucking sweet.

Not at all — apples can be eaten without cutting down trees. and I'm not asking you to kill your own animals, simply to shut your hypocritical cuntface. Doesn't make sense? We can keep embarrassing you. Or you can go back to an education that is clearly doing nothing for you.

That's fine. Wait unt your civil war lover comes home if you want, but you've literally said nothing about why you feel anything. It feels good to kill, as your carnivorous pallette knows and is in denial of.

Amazingly, there is nothing I need to add to that completely irresponsible, on-the-absoltely-wrong-side-of-history comment to make it complete. It says a whole lot about the fat, safe post-Empire-mentality mindset that you even know enough words to express this and still want to express it, but as the Chinese say: May…

It must feel pretty amazing never having had to question the feeling that it is somehow, metaphysically not the same. The class is still waiting for that reasoning, though, you cow-family-destroying, chicken-genocidoal maniac. Check my comment history — I bow to smart better contradicting smarts and wipe my ass with…

This is a great argument, in an exchange about animal torture. But we're talking about a fatal wound caused by physical exertion, you shrink-wrap-loving supermarket-browsing hipster douchehole.

you are awesome

Oh right. Me me me and me, mental health, no coherent elucidation of rationale from you. Presumption of self superiority must feel pretty goddamned good.

in that case, I envy you

That's a fair point. I am not saying China will end the world, we can be adults and not be insanely black and white about everything. I was simply expressing that this affects some — eventually most of us, and while the engineering and work is quite impressive, admiring it feels to me like gazing at the wonder of the…

He or she killed an animal because it satisfied him or her. You eat the flesh of animals other people killed because it satisfies you. Where is the important moral distinction, exactly?

I'm a white Mexican immigrant to Japan, so I know the type exactly; I was absolutely projecting the associations I have with embarrassments I meet doing the same thing here, and I see now that you didn't deserve it. I was wrong, and I'd gladly buy you a beer to apologize. I'm sorry I was a dick, but I am kinda glad I…

Well done. I'll gladly eat my hat to this.

I referenced Rome because of the chronological distance from us here and now. And I'm not alarmed about China from a US perspective, I'm alarmed from an East Asia/global stability perspective. The decline in American influence part is fine. It's the institutionalized presumption of suzerainty over all of East Asia and…

The most useless of all retorts. I'd be in trouble if I confused the comment section of Kotaku with a party. You must contribute lots of smarts at your job. ;D

Awesome username, though.

Cha-ching.

You're not looking at the Roman coliseum, dude. This is ominous, bad times for everybody but China (or just everybody, really, if there is a military conflict over it) and it is happening right now and will affect things in your lifetime. You can admire Nazi weaponry or the Mitsubishi Zero too, sure, but it seems sort…

We've got these in Japan, and when I first came here as a teenager I remember thinking they were super neato. But living with them sort of starts to feel like a pain in the ass after a while. "Oh... I would have had to wait at a red light for a few minutes before crossing the street, but instead I get to walk up a…

It's a mechanic that starts off interesting – especially in the smaller areas where the choice to bust a group or go in shooting feels like a decision you're making – but as the game progresses it reveals itself for what it is: an awkward stealth takedown mechanic to delay an almost inevitable alarm. Later, as levels…
