How have you guys been?
of games, representation, and women's cheekbones
There has also been a tendency for the last few years for people to try shut down discussion about Social issues or their impact on the media(often by being snarky). You what? There are people who get hyperoffended. Do you know how many of them have been on this thread? 0. Zip zilch. Not even one.

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?
Morrowind was a big mixed bag. Vivec aside(which really is a pain to navigate since every looks the same) the world was really cool looking. But yeah, the mechanics were terrible, you to grind to even attack successfully and successes were the only things that counted for experience. Which meant that the early game was really tedious. It also meant that the Enchantment skill isn't useful until it's maxed out since you were more likely to break a good enchantment than to have a successful one. You have to grind enchantment using cliff racers souls to get anywhere. So yeah, cool world, a lot of really bad design decisions.
Pastor has a beef with Starbucks

You sure the DD(s) in your area don't just suck? lol, whenever I get a coffee from there it tastes just fine. Granted, if you just don't like their coffee in general then that's w/e but I'm just sayin' is all.
It might just be the Yankee in me, but I've always preferred DD over Starbucks. There's never a reason to put cream and sugar into it.

I think Liberty might get the chance to lock the thread anyway. This is why we can't have nice things!

author=Feldschlacht IVauthor=LibertyThe only thing about this is that America isn't the only country that lets citizens own firearms, though. I'm pretty sure Switzerland has like two guns for every citizen or something like that?
Except video games don't kill people. Guns do. They... they literally do. You'd have to work really hard to make a disc kill a person in any way. Gun? Trigger is pulled.
All a gun exists for is killing. If everyone was denied guns then they'd have to resort to more rudimentary and less-easy ways of killing instead - more deliberate ways. And there wouldn't be tales of kids shooting themselves when they found their parent's guns. Or the dog shooting it's owner because of a gun - yes, that happened. That's how easily guns streamline the killing process.
Gun? Drive by and shoot. No mess, no fuss.
Other weapons? A chance for the victim to fight back in some way, shape or form.
Honestly, the numbers say it all. Until America loses their guns, I'm just gonna do what I always do when I hear of a school shooting and the like - shake my head and say 'it could have been avoided' and blame the average American asshole who won't give up their easy-kill weaponry to save innocent lives.
America: Land of the "Oh the humanity! Why doesn't someone stop all this violence? YOU'LL NEVER TAKE MY GUNS!!!"
The problem is beyond guns; it's the culture. The genie on the bottle of gun control in America has long escaped; there are so many guns that it would be literally impossible to track them all down and turn them in, and the country would probably tear itself apart through civil war trying.
Instead, we need to deal with what we have and learn to emulate like the countries that do have legal firearms and go from there.
One of things that concerns me about the American gun culture is how many people seem to confuse their power fantasies with reality. Like they are just daring someone to break into their or house or the Government to come or something.
