  1. Just noticed I put "itself" in the same sentence twice. Faux Pas. I don't think it's being ignored...it just isn't happening anymore. Granted, there's the occasional exception, but that's just it, an exception. Edit: Once Meta finishes this post, I'm going to get my argumentative, and most likely wrong ass handed to me on a silver platter.
  2. Hey, oddly, me too. I'm pretty good as a gunner, in fact, I love gunning. And yes, nailing an attack chopper with the TVG is a wonderful feeling. Or, taking out that tank that's decimating your troops by hitting him within the single second he moved from the cover of the buildings. :D *Whimper*
  3. There's a difference, though. Disputes over territory and over the fact that a group just blew up your church or slaughtered some of your priests, where those events are still occurring is very different from a three-decade-plus-old problem with discrimination. Yes violence did take place...a lot of it...but none within the past couple decades. The problem itself seems to be burning itself out gradually, unlike those examples. It's a different situation here, I think. It's been acknowledged, and has been for...again...decades. I can't refute that last part, but then again, why would I? It's spot on. No I'm not saying that. Of course the past needs to be acknowledged, and no, it should never be forgotten, but trying to place blame on those innocent of the crimes committed is just...stupid. And where'd that come from? I wasn't suggesting that, and frankly, I'm appalled by the very notion of it. What's wrong with me not willing to accept blame for the cruelty of my ancestors? I know it was...inhuman, to do what they did, and there's no excuse for their actions, but last I checked, I'm not one of them. I live in modern day North America and have never in my life owned, traded, beaten, or killed anyone...and the slaughter of the Indians too...that's another thing. I did nothing of the sort. What's more, were I suddenly dropped into that time period, I'd be fighting alongside them, rather than my own race. If I just went on a tangent because I misunderstood something...please tell me so I can apologize, hold my head in shame, and beg forgiveness, oh mighty Metamod. And the Grey being a Christian thing. We got it. We all know by now. Let him believe what he wants.
  4. What type of reconciliation do you think is fitting when the current generation isn't at fault in the slightest? And that doesn't seem like a good example...since that dispute is mostly based off of land and religion.
  5. Who is responsible, then? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Though it pains me to say it...I actually agree with him on that. Why should I be punished for what my ancestors did?
  6. If only the game had come today...*Sigh* Guess I have to wait till tomorrow...hopefully just tomorrow. Then yeah, I'd screw around in the CS.
  7. Why are they pointing out differences rather than similarities? Focus less on the former, more on the latter.
  8. Been doing that for the past week. It hasn't helped. :'(
  9. It does more than make me dizzy.
  10. I don't care about the dialogue's failings...I can fill in everything with my imagination anyway, so what's the point? I just want the damned thing to GET HERE already!
  11. Took me 45.
  12. I'm amazed this has remained open for so long. Two things. 1. Lyranor's last quote pretty much tells you that you have to be an idiot to follow the Bible's version of the Lord word for word. What's that say about Mr. Knight? He spelled "idiot" as "ediot"...twice...we're not dealing with a particularly strong intellect here. 2. Can always count on Numbers to put the thread in perspective. (Yes, I know that by posting this I'm contributing to the theme of asshattery when religion gets involved.)
  13. Can't.....wait....one....more.....day....please....hurry....need....RPG....fix.. .happened with....KOtoR II...too... When it gets here, most likely tomorrow, I'm seriously worried about the rest of my week. I had plans. I'm not sure they'll make it.
  14. I've never gotten sick from it, so why should I be concerned? And another thing, we seriously need to quit it with all the anti-bacteria stuff. We're just making ourselves more susceptible to it by not giving our bodies the practice they need. We're gonna get to a point where colds will be like the freaking plague if we keep this up.
  15. My god...I'm a kitten serial killer.
  16. A lot of anger in this room...
  17. Wait...I'm going to have to buy a brand new card for DX10 games? Son of a bitch!
  18. As a Druid in LOD, you have two different options of what to change into, Werebear, as Mothy said, or Werewolf. It's in the skills. By the way, Moth, Werewolves totally pwns the hell out of Werebears.
  19. they have also joked about Jews in Nazi Germany, IIRC. how anyone can participate in that show without knowing that it is slimeball humor of the worst kind is beyond me. I guess it's better late than never. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why did this make me laugh?
  20. Just my cute little Werewolf Druid.
  21. Country: U.S.A. Complaints: Only a few. 1. Education. Sorry Hurlshot, but I have to disagree on this...which makes sense, being that we're in different roles, mine being the student. I actually used to enjoy learning new and useful things, still do, but the current system is assuredly broken. I don't have the drive anymore. It's all the same thing, over and over, over and over, year after year. Were it useful, it'd be ok, but what do I need synthetic division for outside those walls? Nothing. And the argument that it teaches logic is a bit silly, since there are many other ways to teach that without resorting to repetition and...ok, I just hate math. With a passion. Why I'm becoming an English major... Anyway, the system is broken. There's much more emphasis on the damned letters the schools turn in to their respective states than on the kids actually learning anything. In fact, so long as they keep turning in those A's, they're happy. We need a system change. I actually want to be interested again, damn it. 2. The current administration......they suck. A lot. 3. The Patriot Act 4. Psychotic fundamentalists in government positions.
  22. Finally worked. Ignore the TKs. Got on a server late one night with 6 guys where all people did was kill their team mates. It was entertaining at 4 AM.
  23. Only in Nigerian scams. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :D "Pardon me my friend, but I am Nigerryan royalltee and I need you to send me money. Please ignore the fact I can't spell Nigerrya or royalltee." <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
