The funny things thread
That sounds like something I would tell my students. 7th graders seem to think that if they take an article from wikipedia and reword it sentence by sentence that they will produce something coherent.

Anti-Dragon Age 2?
I don't know about that. I mean Obsidian typically uses the space bar when they write in their games, and yet you are posting on their forum without doing so.

Anti-Dragon Age 2?
The quests were far and away the best thing about TOR. Also choosing the jerk dialogue options while playing with my wife was hilarious, she groaned every time I won a die roll. I can't really remember many of the quests in WoW. Lord of the Rings Online still has the best quests for me, but it's easy to remember the story when you've read books and watched movies that all took part in that same universe.

Anti-Dragon Age 2?
I don't understand, can you explain it?

Anti-Dragon Age 2?
I'd imagine Alan probably shouldn't give too much in the way of an official interview here on the Obsidian forums. It might be frowned upon to do so by his management.

Gun Control in the US
I'm not that fond of Pier Morgan, but that guy comes across like a raving lunatic.

Obamacare Guarantees Higher Insurance Premiums
Seriously, my health care costs were skyrocketing before Obamacare even got passed. The system is broken. I don't think Obamacare will fix it, but all the people who attack it instead of coming up with reasonable solutions and alternatives are just another part of the problem. The cost of insuring my family of four through my employer right now is $600 a month. We are young and healthy, we don't smoke, we barely drink, we don't take part in bull riding or anything. That's crazy. My employer is shelling out a good deal more than that as well.

The NHL Thread.
I agree, but that has been aided by watching my baseball team win the World Series, having a decent basketball team, my college football team making it to a bowl game, and the NFL. With football wrapping up soon, it will be nice to have some hockey to watch in February and beyond. Plus you still can't beat the Stanley Cup playoffs for entertainment purposes.

The NHL Thread.
Time for a resurrection, as it looks like we will have a dab of hockey this season! The lockout looks to be ending, and a new CBA is apparently about 10 years long, so hopefully that means no ridiculous stoppages in the near future. It will be interesting how teams adapt to this very short prep time before the short season, and who comes out of the gate ready to compete.

Mass effect Trilogy
If you played ME1 and ME2, I don't know why you wouldn't want to finish the series, especially for a bargain price. Personally I enjoyed the way they brought closure to most of the relationships and storylines. The good far outweighed the bad.

Lord of the Rings Online - This game is massive, and they made some pretty nice changes since I played last. I just got a pretty awesome legendary trait that allows me to call on a ghostly herald for help, instead of my typical squire I've had for the last four years. Kind of sad, actually.

Books we've been reading V2.0
Started the first of these Jack Reacher novels, and so far it's a pretty easy read.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS!
The focus of the Ouya pitch seemed to be that they made a controller. I've just seen a lot of consoles fail, so backing an independent one seemed like a terrible idea.

I enjoyed FTL a good deal, but I also found the mothership fairly impossible to beat. I made it there twice, and both times my ship that had done very well against everything couldn't get the job done.

Top Ten of 2012 thread
Yes, kids do put a bit of a lock on the gameplay hours. I'm lucky if I get an hour before bed during the week. Weekends I actually get up early so I can play for a bit before they wake up.

Anti-Dragon Age 2?
Well it does look like you put a lot of effort into it, good job.
