Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Is it a stretch to say that my testicles function at reduced efficacy while lodged in my abdominal cavity? If not, what are the possible ramifications of this?
You guys know anatomy. Someone field this one for me.

I thought the whole point of them being dislodged was that they operated better at a slightly lower (pun not intended) temperature.

Hormonally? No, shouldn't have an effect.
Fertility-wise? Yes. Heat kills sperm and inhibits their production, so keeping them pressed up against your body is going to reduce your sperm count.
I am comforted by Richard Dawkins’ theory of memes. Those are mental units: thoughts, ideas, gestures, notions, songs, beliefs, rhymes, ideals, teachings, sayings, phrases, clichés that move from mind to mind as genes move from body to body. After a lifetime of writing, teaching, broadcasting and telling too many jokes, I will leave behind more memes than many. They will all also eventually die, but so it goes. - Roger Ebert, I Do Not Fear Death
Matt Damon seems like a smart guy and a good actor. I would like to ... have a beer with him.
Matt Damon for president?
@ Zimmy: I noticed your King post, but I decided not to get wishy-washy. My friend and I spent an evening talking about American history on a patio while we drank beers in early summer. It was a very bittersweet moment. I love this country, just not in a Ford F350 and rifles and country music kind of way. I love what it -represents- and what it stands for, even if our president is a bumblefuck and most of the people here are bumblefucks, I retain the opinion that we have a good vision and if there were some decent people we could regain some of our former glory.

Why do you want your testicles to perform at top efficiency?

When did we have "glory"?
When our ideas stood for something and we weren't getting terrible healthcare and our economy wasn't imploding and people didn't wipe their ass with the constitution because they were afraid of darkies?

Oh no, I'd enjoy the idea of their subjugation leading to reduced hormonal efficiency. Not that it matters at this point in the game. Presence or lack of androgens in my system at this point has bunk-all to do with anything related to sex or sex characteristics, so ... moot.
On the topic, the trans- center for Seattle hasn't responded to either of two e-mails (one sent every week, starting two weeks ago), which is sort of annoying. They're my long-term goal. They need to help out here. D:

What we have is what we've always had: potential.
And I strongly disagree with the pervasive sentiment on this board that "Americans are stupid" or what have you. Americans are people; they are no better or worse than people from other parts of the world. As a group they tend to hold certain opinions and positions you may not agree with, but the only way to change that is to appeal to the better parts of their humanity: compassion, reason, and resolve. Nobody is beyond hope until they are dismissed as such by those who could help them see a better path.
Pessimists accomplish nothing, but optimists can change the world.

So, can we beat Polkster like a pinata for sheer fucking stupidity?
LOL!
I found it hilarious. "Scientifically" determining the fuckability of cartoon characters. Whoever wrote that is screwed up and so is Polkster for reposting it.

The word "Americans" has so very little worth as a descriptor of demographics. We are too giant. The word, really, is just short of being patently useless except for the most obvious generalizations -- ones like you have already gotten out of the way.

It was in my dreams.
Back when men killed their sensei in a duel and never said why.
Shit, I haven't played Smash Bros in so long ... I need to hook it up and throw down some Mario Kart or some smash or something ... maybe hop on the VC, I remember Mario RPG is on there now. Damn, that would be a way to kill a whole day. Amazing effing game. I wish wish wish SD3 was on there, I already have a physical Secret of Mana cart ... damn my love of games. (By damn I mean I love games and I cuddle with them every night)

I don't think the problem is that Americans are stupid; I think the problem is that the culture in America glorifies stupidity. The anti-intellectualism that's been running rampant in this country for quite some time is ridiculous to see in an industrialized nation; not to mention the huge amounts of systemic corruption. And then there's the nationalist streak, along with the flag fetishism, that really ratchets things up to an entirely new level. The idea that it's "unpatriotic" to question or criticize the president would be laughed out of pretty much any European country, or Canada. It's patently ridiculous, a philosophy you'd be more likely to see subscribed to in China or Saudi Arabia, however, there are huge swaths of the American public who believe it.

I agree.
that sounds good. but it all depends on when I get back from maryland.
I'm hoping to leave maryland by 3:30 and so would get back by 7:30 or 8, depending on whether i get fucked in the ass by traffic or not.
I shall let y'all know.

The water at my old apartment in Rome was included in the rent. It was awesome. I always felt bad for taking really long showers, though.
We are winning.
You guys know anatomy. Someone field this one for me.
I just want to hear him talk politics more often so he says more things like the Disney movie comparison. I'm still laughing my ass off about that.
My water used to be like that. Then they reworked the rent scheme to have us pay more of it.

I do have to agree with his final verdict though. Jupiter is the best.

If by "funny" you mean "soul-crushingly depressing that someone actually put that much thought into that", then yes. Yes it was.
