Favorite Sports Game
Not I. I used a battery! Though my cousin was much, much faster than me on the buttons, I was way better at timing the jumps and getting good angles. When we combined forces, we started reaching the sand pit on the "skip" part of the triple jump. The game gut buggered up when that happened. He was too fast for me for high jump though, I could never time it before we ran into the mat! Skeeting shooting was mine and all mine though :D

Was that the one with the skinny guy, the medium guy, and the big guy (that looked vaguely like Mario)?

Exactly.

I thought I had heard something along the lines of a comic book prior to KOTOR called Knights of the Old Republic.

He's right. Pro athletes (as well as non-professional athletes) love to play sports games.

Ok, so it's increasing in the Netherlands. Though the translator I tried on it didn't mention what you spoke about.....perhaps it just sucks. Though the US CDC notes an increase in condom use. So who's right? My initial assertion that you can't take things at face value still stands.

All I could find was a single statement that people are having unsafe sex. It's not too hard to find the contrary: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4222491 Look at this, condom sales skyrocketting. I guess they're for decoration http://www.fhi.org/en/RH/Pubs/Network/v18_3/NW183ch6.htm You can't just take what the media says at face value. Especially if it's just an assertion with little backing such as in your Dutch quote. EDIT: Points of Llyranor.

Decidedly less subtle than your previous efforts.

I still disagree that the relationship with Juhani was a romantic one.

Look at the latest edits Russia and Japan are not in Africa... EDIT; And HERE to see that it also happens in my own country. Altough you probably cannot read it... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All your edits indicate is that people are, on the whole, uneducated about AIDS and STD transmissions. A quick read mentions that people in Russian and Japan never knew better, and didn't understand the disease. I didn't see anything about how they suddenly decided that condoms were no longer necessary (it's funny, because your Russian quote was actually about a contraction via sharing a needle, so I'm not sure how this came into a discussion about the prevalence of condoms), and that is why transmission rates are improving. Llyranor's post is the first one that actually makes an indication that condom use is on the decline...not yours.

Err, I guess I should make it clear that I was never really talking about Africa. The spread of the disease has always been exceptional over there. And besides, a disdain for using condoms for personal protection is not an indication that condom use is less prevalent, nor is a fast spread. All you've basically done is indicate that the AIDS epidemic is a big deal in Africa.

Nah, it still just insists on showing me a picture. Clicking on it has yet to have me playing the game.

I clicked but it didn't work! I suppose I could always take a "wrong" turn to my local computer store on the way home from work today. Though I am playing the conquer game with Hearts of Iron at the moment. EDIT: AND YOU DOUBLE POSTED IT YOU MONSTER!! EDIT: I swore I saw 2 earlier.

I see little indication that the usage of condoms was in any way more widespread prior to the 1960s. And just as you read your big headlines that kids think they aren't necessary, I can also find some that have kids increasingly adhering to abstinence, and supporting safe sex. I mean, if we just go by the media, we'd think that murders were the most common type of crime out there.

Kotor 3 sorta confirmed by ign
Not really. It's barely been a year for most people, and hasn't even been a year for PC users. Doom was years in between, as were other popular franchises like C&C Tiberian Sun, Half-Life 2, etc. It's not uncommon for there to be years in between.

If you can remember who the two default teams were, we could confirm it. The older ones always had the defending conference champions as the default teams I think the new ones do too, but the most recent one is an exception since there was no NHL last year.

Where have you heard about a reduction in condom use recently? And wouldn't condom use have actually been "popular" before the 1960s in order for it to be reduced in the 1960s?
