WHAT ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW?

Posts

@mawk: I'm really tired of your rhetoric. I said the game was juvenile and I said it was bad satire. I said that it's fine that it was banned from the site since this is a private forum. My only points were that it didn't seem to be an attack on women in the way it was being presented and that it has the right to exist, even if it's not here. Kentona's depiction of it as a shitgame seems largely accurate; I mean, I even compared it to a film in which the main character literally eats shit (dog shit, specifically). Feel free to compact your entire perception of me into a "generic jaded gamer guy" if you want, but I think that's lazy, inaccurate, and poison to discourse.

i think "is this script compatible with Takentai?" should be a tagline
Throw it into the tagline thread, I'm pretty sure that is where Kentona gets most of the new content from.

I'm efficient like that.
Speaking of wireless things, I bought a headset for the computer a few years ago that was wireless. Probably the worst purchase I ever did. The batteries lasted for eight hours, so if I wanted to use them for more than a few days I would have to stock up on a metric ton of batteries. Needless to say, I never used them again. Don't buy wireless headphones.

@Housekeeping
I don't think mawk will ever be happy with anything anyone says unless they say they agree 100%. Also anything remotely offensive should be burned and the person who made it should be shot. At least that's how I understand it from the posts made.

I'll never change. "Me" is better than your opinion, dummy!

I just ignore him and brush over his excerpts of idiocy, he's not worth getting angry over.

All I can say is it's hardly surprising he gets on other people's nerves.

*sigh*

Throwing insults back and forth is pretty useless, but damn, ya'll really like to get into it, eh?

Whether or not it's intentionally an attack on women or just incredibly misplaced ignorance, everything about that game sounds demeaning as hell, both to women and femininity, not to mention perpetuating some ludicrous stereotypes about "being a man". If it's meant to be satire, there's nothing to indicate it, and even well-written satire can be dangerous.

Yea, it has the right to be made, and I have no desire to tell people "you can't make this", but I'm definitely gonna exercise my right to say, "you really, really shouldn't have made this."

He's pretty okay once you get to know him. You just gotta open your heart, it's gonna be alright!

I love you guys. You are all as stubborn as mules and completely eccentric, and I like that.

I just played The Hawkman.

It's a shitty game for more reasons than the juvenile humor (which ventures more on the side of being embarrassingly corny rather than offensive, at least in my POV).

You guys and Liberty ain't no damn help :(

50/50 for wireless or with a tail :)

I feel cheap :( My Logitech is a M545 not a 705.

I talked with a Logitech rep for 2hrs explaining the back button did not work.
My Microsoft back button would take me to last page I was on while scouring the internet. It kept switching between my Desktop and the Windows page on my computer.
He searched for how to fix my mouse for a long time, then simply hung up on me or the phone connection was lost.
Then I found out by looking at the software on my computer that the back button WAS DESIGNES TO GO BETWEEN THE WINDOWS AND THE DESKTOP, NOT THE PRIOR PAGE ON THE INTERNET AS MY MICROSOFT MOUSE DID.
I felt stupid and wondered why a the Logitech rep could not just tell me I bought the wrong mouse :)

That's not right.
Now the developer will never know he has another fan :(

I'm not a fan. I already gave my reasons in the "What Video Games Are you Playing Right Now?" thread as to why I dislike it.
Every time I see Hawkman I think of the DC superhero.

Goddammit.

You're giving these people too much credit. The only good tech support I've ever had came from ASUS, when during my first build, I couldn't get power to my motherboard (I was grounding out on the case...(remembering who I'm talking to) that means I had electrical components making contact with too much metal.). If their equipment wasn't so damned proprietary, I'd swear by them. Any other company, I've learned to figure it out myself. I study and research the problem, and thanks to the internet, I can almost always figure out the solution. It may be frustrating, but at least my tech support isn't a blithering idiot.

OH, so now I'm a big dummie, is that it????? :)
Thank you for remembering I'm not a geek ;)
And, I do try to do the same, searching the net I mean.
I watched UTbube and installed a brandynew shower massager...YAY ME :)
@Ratty524, ya gotta be kiddin' me :)
After all the fantastic reviews for that game on this thread....
Did you really think I was serious about you being a fan???

Why is it so hard for so many people on this site to know when I'm trying to be funny or sarcastic ? :)
Sarcasm doesn't translate well into text, as I have learned the hard way.

Yeah, sarcasm and most forms of verbal subtlety rely on tone of voice and body language. That's the reason emoticons exist.

There clearly needs to be a "sarcasm font", or other way of making it obvious that you're being sarcastic, or are otherwise joking like using strike-through. Or, you know, some really visible indication that you're not to be taken seriously at all.

*Edit:
Unless, of course, you're being serious.
The sarcasm "font" ought to be a stylized effect, like a reverse-italics.


Anywho, after the Grammy's, is it still possible to like both Beck and Kanye? Because Beck is awesome, but Kanye's Graduation album is top notch.
