You seem to have a thicker skin than most. Heh, this reminds me of the 'outrage' over Tiny Tina.

Hm, tempted. Maybe I'll just rush to try Dreamfall before deciding.

Reading about the LAPD situation is pretty wild, guy hunting down cops and their families. Of course, cops shoot 3 innocent people due to being scared or something. Hope none of you in LA is driving a grey car

Nice snow today, rather annoying that it's still going so my shoveling was of not much significance, but that'll be my fun activity tonight. Which Civ are you playing ?

Russians are very interesting folk.

Not really an affection term in my experience, hardly a really mean insult in any case but people are like paper these days. Wonder if they'll allow homosexuals to divorce, I recall that was a funny problem when it was legalized here.

Hm, don't remember that - always thought it was an intercept. Must be new or I just missed it back when I kept up with SW stuff, ah well, I stand corrected. You'd think they would have just killed every Bothan, for all the trouble they cause.

Tsk, Bothans died to get the Death Star II plans (which had no design flaw, if I recall).

Hah, I think 1500 of my 4000 songs or so have wrong ID3 tags, or just none. Whoever this 'Unknown Artist' guy is on my iPod, they've sure pumped out a wide variety

Marriage is a life long commitment ? Hm, interesting. I agree they should just have civil unions for all to get the legal standing, works well for everyone.

Well that's a new one, it being extremist. Saves on money and a glass of water is better in any case, or just coffee which is my overly expensive and probably needless beverage of choice

Tsk, don't let anyone pressure you into drinking. Last bunch of coworkers tried that and that nice pint stayed on the table all night - sadly people don't accept a drink from a stranger, rightly so.

Abrams seems to have a lot of fanboys, so he can't be all that bad. And hey, lens flare was still big when Half Life was released, no ?

Already been around for 4 years before that, though.

May I recommend pirating? We'd do that, one friend bought a book, copied it at a copy shop for 6 of us, we pay for our copies and pay him back an amount so that we all saved on the deal. University was never happy about that, heh.

For fun I should say I'm against it as it's immoral and unnatural to be a homosexual so this doesn't turn into an echo chamber.

Well that explains his lack of a British accent. I think he meant London, Ontario.

Ah, the rep grind.

Well, their talk of handling the story at three levels hopefully is a cause for some optimism, but still not that hot on the open world stuff even when it was hinted at a while ago.

On the face of it, the information gathering to kill monsters sounds interesting

Or mecha-related violence.

"The Japanese and American ways of thinking about crime, privacy, and police powers are so different -- and Japan is such a generally peaceful country -- that it's functionally impossible to fully isolate and compare the two gun control regiments" Hmmm.

Forgot that I haven't finished Gabriel Knight 3, so going back to that.

So apparently Tina in Borderlands 2 is racist due to her choice of words - http://www.pcgamer.com/2013/02/04/borderlands-2s-tiny-tina-accused-of-conveying-racism-writer-says-he-may-change-her-in-future/

As if football or rugby promos are much better. Still, impressive how long the pre-game shows are.
