Rum, vodka, whiskey, and gin. Going to grab a sammich or something later.

Semper Paratus I don't think anything can prepare one for reading about a cave woman ****ing a raptor.

I don't know what is worse, that this was written or that someone posted it here where I could stumble on it unprepared.

AoS has been pretty great. I'm thinking that the Rising Tide ends up being a front for HYDRA.

Perhaps, I'm overly cynical, but I think that the shutdown may have more to do with playing politics than serving the cartel. Looking at rhetoric used by certain groups, they believe that a government shutdown is a good thing, and so certain politicians will do so in order to avoid primary challenges and/or they intend to run for higher offices and want support.

I read the title as "Obamacare guarantees government shutdown", which I suppose is true now.

Currently downloading FONV and watching Lars and the Real Girl. Anyone have suggestions for mods?

Depending on what you mean by regularly, well... you can do that without a missus. I would say you're using too much rum, but I'm currently drinking vodka out of a bottle so I don't think I can talk.

Wals, is that from 2000AD?

Not really what I was expecting, but I'm still intrigued. Perhaps my Paladin will pick up a Cipher companion.

Not if it is anything like the BGEE launch, or Atari gets pissy and doesn't let them patch it.

GD, I find your excessive happiness unsettling. Currently haven't eaten anything today, might grab a sammich later on.

I don't think I will require it for either the nap or (hopefully) getting intimate. Then again, she could be crazy...

Today I took an exam. Thinking of taking a quick nap then taking a girl out.

@Wal: Buffy, Angel, Archer, Mad Men, Doctor Who, Walking Dead, a ****load of B-movies, and too many others.

I thought those single moms were interested in your wallet...

I've always used the backdoor in those situations.

While I doubt I will pick this up until it goes on sale, it does look worthwhile if it can be patched into a stable form. Also, it seems Oby would make a terrible history professor.

Hey hooking up with an ex sometimes leads to pretty good stuff. But not if they're nuts! I disagree, hooking up with a crazy ex can make for an interesting weekend.

Dayum.

Make it happen Obsidian, I'm ready to sell Nep's Kidneys on the black market.

While I agree with the thrust of your post, I'll pick out the points I'm interested in discussing. I would tweak this to be a mixture of both selfishness and either disdain or apathy. While I think that everyone has a dose of self-interest(and therefore selfishness), I believe that it requires the ability to not be affected by(or even reveling in) the suffering of others to be considered evil. I would agree that empathy could not be instilled into one incapable of feeling it, such as a psychopath, but I would argue that it is possible to encourage people who are capable of feeling empathy to utilize it more, essentially a reverse of how some people are taught to utilize it less. As I'm not a biologist, I can't accurately comment about bio-chemical induced apathy, but as a layman, I would think that it could be possible to find early signs of bio-chemical induced apathy and treat it.

Very off-topic: I just realized Nonek's avatar is faintly smiling. I've always just assumed that in keeping with his status as an Englishman, it was frowning disapprovingly. On-Topic: I recently started playing BGT, but got distracted. I hope they improve combat.

That sounds like a girl I dated Wals. Last I checked, she ruined her hair and looked much too thin. I'm about to head to class, going to eat something quick.

I still maintain that if a person truly wants to brutally torture children, he should make them play Superman 64 while eating squid.
