It's not bitterness, it's common sense. There are things he likes in games, and things he doesn't. He doesn't like JRPGs and multiplayer, he likes a good story and stealth games. He's fully aware other people like these things, but that doesn't mean he can't rapidly and humorously rant about why he doesn't.
People take game reviewers too seriously. It's all subjective what you like, so if they don't like the same thing you do, who cares? |  | Pastor Stiffs One Waitress On Tip, Gets Another Waitress Fired

I remember that part of the Bible where Jesus said:
"Brothers, cast aside your dirty robes and poverty, and take from those you serve. Build yourselves houses and thrones of gold.
Should those you preach to not give you sufficient alms, tell them they have lost my favor.
Always have gold, silver, and brass in your purses.
And take without giving in return, for it is easier to a camel to get through the eye of a needle, than a poor man to buy his way into heaven.
Blessed are you who have learned to fleece the poor, you shall be first in the Kingdom of Heaven." | | Between Two Ferns: Oscar Buzz Edition Part 2

You don't even have to go back 400 years ago. Only about 100 years ago the average age of consent in the US was twelve, in Delaware nine, the child's consent wasn't needed for them to get married, the woman's legal rights were controlled by the husband, and there wasn't such thing as marital rape. There are many Congressmembers still today who think marital rape doesn't exist as a concept, since the marriage means she can't say no.
There have been better definitions of marriage than that in history. It wasn't always the case that women were property, gays couldn't marry, and that children had no say. There are clear propagators of bad morals which overwhelmed these practices, many of them carrying a sword and a holy book, with the latter doing more damage. | | Colorado City and the Underground Railroad

The same is true in Clearwater, Florida for Scientology. And for towns across the country (predominantly the south, but not only) when it came to imposing religious laws and bigoted norms in violation of federal law.
This is the reason people like Ron Paul claim that government power is a threat, but then defend unlimited rights of state governments to violate basic freedoms. Why he thinks the government protecting the civil rights of minorities is a grave offense to liberty, but states deciding to knock down bedroom doors and police what kind of sex they are having is fine. Why he thinks it's wrong for the federal government to tell schools they must let kids pray to whoever they like, but not for state governments to tell schools to force kids into a religion.
Because it's not actually about "liberty", it's about creating these mini-fiefdoms where their own person visions hold sway without compromise or consideration for others. Small government is a legitimate position, that's being used primary to try and justify abuses of powers like these, whether from Mormons, Scientologists, Christians, or private enterprises and financial interests. | | Stone Protectors Episode 1

Most of these are parodies of parodies. The others are parodies, of parodies of parodies.

The podcasts, sure. Because they learned what fans wanted, and are just there to set Karl up. They turned him into a character, even if it's not entirely scripted.
But some of the best bits from the radio show require Ricky and Steve. Rockbusters and Monkey News would be lame instead of funny, if Ricky weren't 10 mmHg from a coronary the whole time. And Steve, because he's the only one Karl can make fun of.

I was about to give this a bad rating for the parody being nowhere near as obliviously amusing/counter-productive as the real thing, but RandLand saved it. | | 'Star Trek: Into Darkness' trailer
01/28/13, 18:27
Your title is wrong. In order to get away from the 'conventinal' naming pattern of Star Trek movies, J.J. Abrams insisted there be no semi-colon, so the name of the film is "Star trek into darkness". One of a number of cases where trying not to make a 'Star Trek'-like Star Trek movie resulted in a dumb idea.
If the trailer is any indication, this movie will be 2/3rds people slowly looking off-camera, and jumping off high things. | | Sick and tired of tea party cowards avoiding the Obama forged birth certificate issue

He's screaming with spittle about how Obama must be an illegal, because someone was willing to go to jail to prove the point, and how dare other people be such (caucasian) cowards as to not be willing to go to jail for what they believe...

This is the same damn discussion that happens in every single political/civil rights movement. "Gosh, I agree with what you're saying, but since it upsets people you should blunt your criticism and try to say things nicely."
It's not a point without merit, but it seems like every time we look back at who actually got shit done, it's those who were willing to raise a fuss and be direct rather than censor themselves. Setting a good example helps, but that doesn't require leaving the public arena empty of an impassioned voice to challenge unsubstantiated slurs and scams. And if it's not Dawkins, who else?
"If we're seeing much turn in young Americans, its due regular exposure to semi-anonymous peers on the internet who are atheist, and still okay people.
It probably also comes from people like Dawkins being direct and saying things which strip the mantle of social presumption that religious beliefs can't be challenged in the same manner as others. And for that matter, this "militancy" and name calling from Dawkins is essentially an occasional swear word and insult directed as a vile person who apologetic atheists would also agree is vile. He's not Glenn Beck, and it's not the language he uses and points he makes that get him tagged as militant, but rather the subject he's addressing. In his religious debates there's typically only one person on the stage who claims that disagreement makes you a bad person rather than just wrong, and that you deserves eternal torture for it, and that person isn't Dawkins. | | Richard Dawkins on Bill Maher

Richard Dawkins: "The Catholic Church is corrupt and shelters pedophiles while abusing human rights and dignity. Creationists are idiots. Mormonism and Scientology were clearly invented as cults by con men who abused their power."
Internet: "Yeah, right on! Let's laugh at the nutters."
Richard Dawkins: "And this highlights some of the underlying problems with religion in general as a basis for understanding of reality and morality, including Judeo-Christianity. Justifying political actions or absolving oneself of responsibility by claiming to speak to an imagined deity is foolish. We shouldn't pretend that myths can substitute for science, or base our understanding on people claiming to speak for deities."
Internet: "Woah, slow down there religious fundamentalist. Why do you have to be so hateful?" | | STOP White GeNOcide

O Lordy, the trials I suffered as a white male going through higher education. Sure it may have seemed like I breezed through with full scholarships, but really the whole time I knew that my life had been made harder by colleges giving ignorant and lazy students positions in even better schools that I would have otherwise gotten into.
At the time I thought these were the trust-fund kids who bought their way in, but now I realize it was the minorities, possibly excluding Asians. Thanks Gmork! | | Rabbi explains the importance of sucking blood from circumcision

In general, it's a good idea to wash things before sticking them in your mouth. Ask your partners for some common courtesy. | | Rabbi explains the importance of sucking blood from circumcision
01/20/13, 18:37
...than what? Than non-circumcision? Because I don't know about your personal aesthetic penile preferences, but there's no medical consensus that circumcision is justified on health grounds. There's a reason that the major medical associations across America and Europe don't recommend circumcision, they just leave it up to the parents. | | Rabbi explains the importance of sucking blood from circumcision

"Also is the theory, some people feel that it is, some people feel that it's not, that saliva of a human being has some antiseptic qualities".
Or you could just use antiseptics, which contain many antiseptic qualities without the gonorrhea or hepatitis. Or you just stop lobbing bits of babies dicks off. Also an option.
"It's said in the (clears throat) that the saliva of certain people were used as curatives".
They also said the world was flat and had about a hundred times our infant mortality rate, so maybe I'll listen to the doctors instead. | | Irish News at its Best

Pretty much every commercial on TV is a minor variation of:
"Your life sucks. These people are using the product, and are now happy. Buy it and you'll somehow find the meaning and happiness in your life."
Often the change in mood they depict has nothing to do with the product's uses. Like a commercial I saw recently where a guy has a bad relationship with his wife and is unhappy with his job, but then gets a smartphone and everything's better. Possibly because the phone helps him hide his new affair, we're just left to speculate on the correlation. | | NRA: Stand and Fight

...do I really have to say it out loud?
Slippery slope arguments are bullshit logical fallacies. Reality is slightly more complex that "Either do the maximum or nothing." No, you can't ban one kind of gun to stop all gun violence. But if you think that banning one kind of gun which has a greater potential for harm than other guns without corresponding benefits for legal defense, could reduce gun deaths, then it's worth trying. People might disagree, the statistics might show a negligible effect, but the argument that it must be one extreme or the other is nonsense.
Like Jon Stewart point out recently, you don't have to ban cars to reduce fatal car accidents, you can ban certain types of dangerous cars, impose speed limits, require seat-belts. Only in certain issues like guns, gay marriage and drug use do some act like the only options are no regulation, or genocide.
http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tue-january-8-2013/scapegoat-hunter---gun-control
I'm not even going to address the "people who want to ban guns are worthless human beings who favor genocide". The UK bans private ownership, and many other countries like Canada heavily restrict one's ability to own guns. It's not in the slightest bit lazy, or in opposition to critical thinking.
It only seems that way to people who ironically complain about people stereotyping gun-fetish nutters, before comparing the gun policies of peaceful democracies with lower violent crime rates than us, to imaginary Hitler. | |
