    Haha. Don't worry about it. You're clearly a good person. It was just a funny mistake!
  2. Divinity: Original Sin

    This trick is almost game breaking in how easy it makes things so read at your own peril:
  3. Manga Thread of Reading Comics Backwards

    I didn't know there was an anime! I'll definitely have to check that out!
  4. Feminism

    Unless I'm misunderstanding, you mixed up the words sexism and feminism. Am I making a fool of myself now?! D:
  5. Feminism

    Quoting before you realize your mistake and fix it because it amuses me too much.
  6. Manga Thread of Reading Comics Backwards

    One Punch Man is really great. I'm also reading Assassination Classroom and One Piece and Knights of Sidonia and And Yet the Town Moves (Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru). The last one is definitely the best one. However, my Chrome extension which let me know when recent scanlations were put up for each of those (except the last which I read on Crunchyroll) broke and uninstalled itself? I haven't looked into fixing it. I guess I'll do that now.
  7. Life

    Hah, I had a German friend at DigiPen who had no problem talking about how fat Americans were even as he sat right next to the fattest man I've ever personally met (he is obscenely overweight, like at least 350 pounds and probably about six feet). He didn't even consider that it might be hurtful. He was just being blunt. It often came up when we'd go out to eat and the portions would be way larger than he expected or wanted.
  8. I Had A Random Thought...

    If you're reading from a mobile browser, I think just tapping on the post will expand it in a downward fashion with an edit button! Also I'm now officially requesting that the language gods allow us to replace "de facto" with "Dr. Facto" as we please.
  9. i started up a video game for the first time today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uxnO5GfWrU
  10. DOTA 2

    Also Razor's the most boring hero in the game let's remove him entirely thanks Valve.
  11. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    I read very few comics, whereas I read an egregiously large number of webcomics. Mostly because they're free, of course. They're also delivered in a very different format (generally one page at a time), as opposed to regular ol' comics' being full issues, etc. I guess what I'm saying is that I think the distinction is worth keeping in mind. That said, I don't really care about separating all the comic types into different threads. I was just saying that 'cause I'd made a post in the actual Webcomics thread less than half a day prior.
  12. DOTA 2

    GOOD LET'S KEEP IT THAT WAY. I'm saying it was a boring ass series. Codicier: I hope Valve doesn't change the game explicitly with the mindset of making it more fun for spectators. But as the meta shifts, it'll happen all on its own. Every patch brings in a new flavor of the month, even if it's only because of a "hey remember this hero exists" buff to level one attack damage on Phantom Lancer, or whatever. But that's sort of aside from what I was getting at. I think the strategies NewBee and ViCi employed are awesome. I just found this particular series rather boring to watch. It was a stomp.
  13. DOTA 2

    Puck plays are flashy and fun to watch but don't really mean a good game. I'm not saying it wasn't a good game, but. It was one game of NewBee losing to warm up and then three games of NewBee stomping all over ViCi Gaming. Pretty one-sided and boring.
  14. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    Nah that's the surface argument! I like arguing about what arguments are though!
  15. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    I don't see what you're seeing but also I regret making my post because at its root this fucking argument - is it okay to make jokes?! - is my least favorite argument to ever have. So I'm bailing out. Feel free to be angry with him. I think the song is hilarious.
  16. Recently completed video games

    That's good because I think Street Fighter sucks!
  17. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    I think the song is great and I don't think it's fair to be angry at Weird Al for making a song mocking the degradation of language. He's not making fun of dyslexics. He's making fun of people who type "u r 2 kewl" legitimately. Though when I first heard the spastic line I knew that'd be a problem for some people, since that's apparently an offensive word in England, but in America it's not even remotely.
  18. Recently completed video games

    I'm mad though and I think Yasawas should be banned for hating a game I loved.
  19. Post your face!

    It might be Zeus, I just figure that anything weird and inexplicable is easily attributable to elmuerte. Safe bet, I think.
  20. tegan I saw that recently too and was similarly mindblown. How is that even still a thing? Bob is an insane human being. I really want to play bob's game. I am completely serious about that. I'm convinced it will be a complete trainwreck if it is ever actually released, but also it's pretty fucking fascinating.
  21. Comics Extravaganza - Pow Bang Smash!

    I still like Paranatural! And Cucumber Quest! Wait this isn't the webcomics thread.

    Most of the choices you can make in Dark Souls aren't needed either. (Can't speak to the other games, but I can only assume they're similar.) You can go the whole game only playing with a sword and board and never touching magic or going two handed or even learning how to backstab or or or. But, of course, your experience can be made better for exploring these different options and finding what's best for you. Transistor's similar, at least in that capacity! You don't have to use everything, but the joy is in experimenting with different combinations. Merus brings up one of the better examples. A lot of people swear by the dash, but you can definitely get by without it. I mixed up my skills a lot as I played through the game twice. Like a lot a lot. Every couple save points I would swap things around. I'M GONNA NEED FURTHER CLARIFICATION ON WHAT YOU MEAN. PRONTO.
  23. Baby Animal Gif Emergency Rations

    I just noticed that dog winks at the end. Amazing.
  24. Post your face!

    Gaming towel is some weird forum in-joke that I think only elmuerte gets.
  25. Webcomics

    I love Octopus Pie.
