I had this problem in college, when I'd studied French and Spanish - mind you I had the additional problem that the two languages are very similar. I'd often answer my Spanish instructor in a mix of Spanish and French (usually starting in Spanish and ending in French). Sadly those unused skills are far beyond me, I can read very little of both and speak almost none...

I think what you call "adjust" most people call "early signs of hypothermia". I keed, I keed...

Can't have enough of that. But it is a trailer so they have to show the sexy, flashy bits. Corny monologue too, "their darkness must end" Maybe he's going to buy them some light fixtures at Home Depot and install them to end the darkness?

I'm not sure I really wanted the mental image in my head of people snatching Putin's sausage...

I read it as an outside of the local area LGBT group came in trying to stir something up, the local gay population told them they didn't want any part of it, the outside group left. You right that could be what he meant, I just don't believe it The LGBT community faces enough discrimination on a daily faces from people who push a homophobic agenda I find it hard to believe they would discriminate against themselves like that especially in a place like Poland which is relatively conservative about gay rights anyway. I would think the LGBT community would stick together but you never know Why would you support someone you think is doing more harm to you than good? Not everyone agrees with the path of an organization even if the organization is nominally "for" them. This isn't an LGBT example, but I know a local college had a group of students create a second African-American student organization because they felt the existing organization didn't give enough support to the causes and programs that that group of students felt was important.

Well I suppose you can always set up a tent outside the RV to make the experience more authentic ? You could put a tent up in your living room, but it doesn't make it camping. I kid, I kid. Seriously though, I have no interest in camping unless the post-apocalyptic wastelands are on us. And I still wouldn't have an interest in camping amid the radiation, radscorpions and killer mutant critters with a taste for flesh, but might not have any say in the matter at that point.1 1Awww, who am I kidding, I'll be killer mutant critter chow within minutes of the post-apocalypse happening - I'd never survive long enough to sleep under the irradiated sky.

Pretty sure the current correct usage would be to say "she". Ah so use the gender they're aiming for and not the one they were born with, makes sense, thank you for the clarification. Edit: Well I know what i'm making for dinner now, this thread has one purpose. If you're talking about transsexuals, yes. But if they're gender fluid, I have no clue what the best pronoun is, you should probably ask the person in question what they prefer. Good point, I'm not familiar really with gender fluidity, so my basis of reference may be somewhat off base with respect to them.

Did it involve fava beans? o.O Even worse, okra. To this day the mere smell of cooking liver make me want to dry heave. I was having a "Silence of the Lambs" flashback. I like okra and I like fried liver, but I dunno that I've ever eaten both at once

I did mention that he seems to currently have the biggest connection to the real issue at play.

If people can't engage in a dialogue, then how can they benefit from meeting the opinions of others? Many people have difficulty projecting empathy for people they have so much trouble understanding; not being able to engage in dialogue only furthers a lack of understanding (IMO). One question that was never significantly addressed, and as you seem passionate on the subject I'm curious as to your opinion - what about the original joke indicated transexuality (as opposed to either a transvestite + straight man or a gay man + straight man + alcohol or even 2 straight men + alcohol) While not all humor needs to press boundaries, I'd scarcely like a world where humor couldn't push boundaries. That said there's certainly room to argue that a throw-away tombstone with backer content in a gigantic ass game isn't necessarily the venue for pushing boundries of humor.

I don't think you have to be "in" or "against" the movement to talk about. Hurl's welcome IMO as we all are. And realistically, as both sides slip now and then to being about people than issues, its actually a fair point that Hurl makes that you really don't need to know who any of those people are because they're not the issue (at best someone like IMC might be symptomatic of the issues, but...)

I'll never forget a friend of mine explaining that the appeal of 2001 was lost on anyone who didn't see it at the theater during its original release... ...because at the time there would be enough people chain smoking marijuana that you'd get high too, even if you weren't smoking anything.

Not really. They should've just let it blow over. There'd still be the butthurt. Only difference would be we'd get "They didn't change it! They support hate! I'll never buy again!" instead of "They changed it! They support censorship! I'll never buy again!"

So rather than "cave" to some organized people on Twitter who felt the limerick offensive...they should "cave" to some organized people on Twitter that feels any change is censorship? I mean really Obsidian was screwed the minute someone found something offensive - it guaranteed that one side of the outrage brigade would be butthurt by any path they took.

...because neither side wants anything short of WWI style trench warfare with each other, fighting tooth and claw for every inch of ground. I feel bad for the backer and Obsidian to be stuck in the middle of two groups who care more about winning their mutual pissing contest than do about anything else.

Context for the quote (or some and for those interested in that kind of thing) from a transcript of a video with producers Errol Morris and Werner Herzog talking about the documentary film THE ACT OF KILLING by Joshua Oppenheimer, Christine Cynn, et al

Opinions. Opinions never changes. The Romans waged debate to gather influence and students. Religions built virtual empires from spreading their views to the masses. The internet was founded on the ideal of beating others over the head with your strongest held beliefs when not looking at lolcat photos. But Opinions never change.

Yeah, Gandalf the Grey kept needing people to save him.

^Anyone who thinks documentaries are the "truth" is deluding themselves. Anyone familiar with film - as Herzog is - could tell you that all film is biased by the narrative the primary decision maker creates (be it the director, the producer, the writer or the editor).

Don`t know what you are smoking that you get that impression. It'd be easy to get that impression - see all the people who are calling Obsidian "craven cowards" for "caving" to "a perpetually offended twitter user". Mix it liberally (or conservatively, I'm not judging) with the words "Censorship" and "refund" and "Never buying a game again from you" and "you're idots for not putting it in the patch notes because everyone knew you did it the moment you did it" and you pretty much have this forum, the STEAM forums and probably several others since Friday.

? I think he was drunk. I regret not being drunk when reading this thread.

Supposedly whatever exists of Morgan Creek has been pitching a cable TV show continuation of it, with Clive's involvement at some level. Barker's said he might revist the story. And there is a comic book continuation going on now from IDW. I watched THE STING (1973). Been awhile since I'd see it, so I only partially remember bits. Good film.
