It says something that despite all the insistence from feminists and Aaron, people still refer to her as FemThor or Lady Thor, while Odinson is still referred to as Thor. No one is accepting that she is "The Real Thor"
-
Jason Aaron went full retard. edit: Its from Loki: Agent of Asgard, not Thor, so it wasn't Jason Aaron, was Al Ewing.

Yes, but variant covers don't always match the contents of the comic. By this logic, wouldn't the Skoottie Young baby variants or the selfie variants DC did a while back also draw criticism for not matching the tone of the book? For example, this is the Superman variant for Joker month: Supes even has the trunks in that one. Hardly representative of the book.
-
Batgirl has PTSD from that encounter with the Joker. She was paralyzed for years. The cover didn't insinuate that she needed a man to save her. And DC has a much bigger history of raping male characters anyway.

I'm loving Kimmy Schmidt. It gets more ridiculous as it goes on. I have like 2 eps left.
-
Yeah, and theres still generally one tech store per mall and 15 or so women's clothing stores. Anyway, the analogy wasnt so much to highlight shopping habits, but to highlight the absurdity of abandoning a hugely profitable industry because you view the demographic makeup of its audience as "problematic"

Was talking about GG to a guy at work(who doesnt follow it) and I brought up the argument some people are making about how the "core gaming" industry needs to be abolished in favor of the casual one because the numbers are closer to parity with regards to male/female players and the core gaming demos are like 75% male. His response was "Thats like saying malls need to get rid of all the womens clothing stores and just have unisex because there aren't enough mens clothing stores. That's stupid, women just like to shop more"

I unpack boxes of fasteners so that other people can pack them up again. I also pack up orders of decorative garage door fixtures so people can buy them at home depot and people can make their garage doors look like barn doors.

I miss non-crippled Castiel. Sad Sack Cas with no wings is just not as cool.

My problem with guinness is it tastes flat. Needs more bubbles.

White People: What They Say in Public vs Behind Closed Doors

I'm against using the words white, CIS, popcorn and clown I find cis offensive too. I prefer the term "normal" -
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-26921743 Increased aggression after playing games linked to frustration and feelings of incompetence derived from failing or bad mechanics not violent content. So the last negative effect of violent video games has been debunked.
-
I think its funny that they want games to include reality in that even if you do everything right you still fail, the day after the study is released that says increased aggression after playing games is linked to frustration and feelings of incompetence from failing.So in essence, they are campaigning for the only negative effect of gaming.

Its a shame. I had a blast when I went. The dealer area was huge and there was some really good deals. Got the first 5 trades of Y: The Last Man for 20 bucks, and got tons of stuff signed by Warren Ellis. That man is hilarious. Oh well, Vancouver has its own con now so I save on hotel and travel. A fraction of the size but still fun.
-
Yeah. I went like 8 years ago. Got a 4 day pass for 50 bucks in like early march. Was a bitch finding a hotel, but tickets were no problem. I think its like 170 for 4 days now. I remember they sold out of 4 day passes like 2 weeks after I bought mine, and Friday and Saturday were sold out by late april. Sunday sold out like 2 weeks before the con.

IMO it just keeps getting better. But it is CW. Soap operaish is a requirement
-
Thanks man you just saved me some bucks, god knows I hate DLCs and while I love Paradox I am not going to support that kind of BS Paradox's DLC is usually not bad. You get the $10-15 expansions that are usually worth the money and get 75% discounts after 4 months anyway, then the $1-2 aesthetic dlc that is entirely skippable and generally only for the hardcore players.

I am so far behind. I have 7 episodes of the 100, 6 of Sleepy Hollow, 4 Better Call Saul, and a Comic Book Men on my PVR, and me and the missus started watching the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix (which is wonderful btw)
-
New male centric Ghostbusters movie announced with Dan Aykroid and Ivan Reitman producing. Women/SJWs freak about why can't it have both men and women while praising female only one. Hypocrisy is fun. I agree with the "why can't it have both?" crowd, but apply the same to the female only one too. Rumored first casting is Channing Tatum and Chris Pratt, who would fit wonderfully with some of the female GB cast.

I think the year I went must have been one of the last good ones. I had no problem getting tickets, weeks after they went on sale, and there was a booth to buy tickets for the next year too.

So tell me what we have to do to get....

Obsidian could work with Activision and release it through new Sierra -
Saw an interview with the House of Cards people who said they wanted to slow down a bit for season 3 and focus more on the Underwood marriage.

Reasoning makes sense. If they can hold their own event without having to fight through the noise, it makes sense.

I heard their polynesian mythology influenced one coming in like 2018 was going to use it
