    [NFL] 2014 NFL Season

    I feel sorry for the Browns for buying into the hype.

    Something about cosplay really bothers me

    That sucks Kags, I saw that post before the forum ate it. Were you trying to edit the bad quote tag?

    The EPIC WIN Thread 3: SON OF EPIC

    Heh, well, I meant more because I'm finding any potential rather than specifically this date. Maybe it works out, maybe not, but at least something's happening.

    The EPIC WIN Thread 3: SON OF EPIC

    I've been single for about 3 years now, without any real dates even, but finally bit the bullet and went the online dating route, and I have a date set up within 8 days of joining OkCupid. ...Maybe I've been going at this the wrong way to begin with.

    Video Game News and Miscellany

    Fair point, that I'll probably make use of.

    Video Game News and Miscellany

    Yeah, the online aspect doesn't hold a lot of interest for me, but the other stuff sounds cool.

    Video Game News and Miscellany

    What improvements were those? I've been out since, well, Ruby came out the first time. I'm all for it too though, my last attempted playthrough died when the internal battery in my copy died, and some of my favorite pokemon are from this game.

    [Rant] Minor Rant III: For a Few Hollers More

    So previously, my department gave out bonuses for two reasons, passing certification tests, and an end of year bonus somehow calculated from your performance review (of which said certifications were a factor). Starting this year, there will be no more end of year bonus, because they're focusing...

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    *Sigh* I was going to leave the snarky comments alone, but given how often the same incorrect comparison is being repeated, I feel the need to correct it. This is not a matter of the movies daring to have any points of contradiction. Some conflicts inevitably occur in a franchise that's been...

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    That's fine, I just wanted to make it clear that I wasn't doing some "The company I own no stake in MUST do things my way or they are objectively wrong" fan thing. I am not always the best at actually saying what I'm trying to convey.

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    Yep, like Bhamv, I have more loyalty to the current Star Wars universe, including the EU, than whatever this new thing is. Like I said, yeah there's practical reasons for tossing it, it's the safer, easier route, but safer and easier is not always best (though it's not always wrong either). To...

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    Yep, and my only point was that sort reductionist approach to the universe to appeal to the lowest common denominator is disappointing for some fans. It doesn't matter to you, and that's fine, it's a matter of subjective preferences after all, but there's nothing wrong with others preferring...

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    Oh, now we're restricting the "sandbox" analogy to just refer to film, rather than the whole universe? Because up until now, they were the same thing. Having respect to the work of everyone who's contributed to the universe so far is a reason. But you're right, that they don't have to do so...

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    Plenty of people have played in the sandbox without knocking what everyone else did down. There being restrictions on what you can do is generally the cost of playing a shared "sandbox" (as a tradeoff for the benefit, which is that you have everything else everyone built to play with as well)...

    Oh man, the Jedi Prince series, I remember that. That was...a thing alright.

    [TV] The What Anime Are You Watching Thread!

    Aw, I was worried that might be the case. Just go with what the other two said then.

    [TV] The What Anime Are You Watching Thread!

    To add unnecessary further detail to what Gas and Cynicism have already said, it's like Gurren Lagann(unsurprising given it's the same crew behind it), only based on Magical Girl anime and clothing/nudity instead of Mecha shows and Manly fighting spirit.

    Minor victory thread

    I got a several hundred dollar check from my health insurance! ...To pay the balance billing the hospital is doing. :oops: So it's just like if they paid the hospital directly, except I get to hold that money for a nice - brief - moment before having to give it away again. Still, insurance is...

    [Movies] Star Wars: Episode VII

    It's unsurprising, but still disappointing. Tossing out 20 years of material is no small deal. Oh well, it makes for a good position to finish up the soon-to-be-labeled "Legends" EU material and walk away from the new EU.

    [Webcomic] PVP Discussion

    My point is not that Kurtz doesn't have problems, but how this forums responds to them compared to others. Also, if you're paying attention to PVP and not Broodhollow? I think you're making the wrong judgement call. :P
