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!

When was this mythical time, though?
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.
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.
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.
Actually, i'm probably screwed up too cause I found it hilarious

I am a fish * 25.
This gives me an idea: A program or script that goes through a text document and expands contractions.
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)
Fucking ridiculous.
it would have been funny if i was twelve and thought that evaluating even imaginary women on their "fuckability" was a hilarious thing
What is the essay on?
It really only has value for self-identification. It is somewhat unique in that respect, since I can never be "Japanese" or "Iranian" or "Nigerian" no matter how hard I try, but anybody can be American if they choose to be.
If anything gives the idea of being "American" any value, it's that.
My first thought after I read the first paragraph was, "But marble slabs are fuckable because holes can be cut in them."
I'd answer but it would use up my irony quota for the day.
That's the best OP I've ever seen on these boards.
took out her barrettes and her hair spilled out like rootbeer
Man, I hate ironing.
Back in my day, if I handed in an essay late my teacher would use it as toilet paper and then hand it back to me. And dock 50% of the grade.
but only because I'm so proud of being an Oboro that there's no room for another lover
I would hand the same essay in again then.

I gave up on that thread because it was just making me angry.
I never said "Americans are stupid" or what have you. I think it's not helpful to gloss over the fact that we are a flawed country that needs constant vigilance to not fall prey to the natural trend of wealthy, powerful nations: complacency and insular views.
America never had a "golden age" and the sooner we realize this, the sooner we can work towards improving ourselves for the future and learning from all of the mistakes we and our leaders have made in the past.
I'm not sure, but I don't think that's the word he wanted...
If you are ANYWHERE near NYC I absolutely love smash and will play it with you.
my jobs have usually been 3 or 4 weeks before giving me my first paycheck, unless i've worked at the institution previously
We need someone that converts retard/leet/pirate-lingo speach to english, not the other way around. D:
Honestly I think that if public schools used the model that my High School did a lot of the education problems in this country would solve themselves within a generation, along with the whole "anti-intellectual" thing Than talked about (which has its roots in the original Great Awakening).
Seriously, I live in the middle of Nowhere, ME. Nothing but hillbillies as far as the eye can see, and it worked for us. The people who led the charge against it? Mostly the parents rich-kids, sons and daughters of educated people who vote straight Republican tickets because of taxes who got pissy because their perfect little angels couldn't game the system anymore.
Meanwhile I started at Boston College as well or better equipped than many of my peers who went to $50k a year private high schools, and it was all because of the systemic reforms at PRHS.
I had a prof like that in college, but even if you do really well there was a tangible weight difference in the paper after you got it back because of the amount of red ink she would use. Always very critical, but gave praise when due and didn't necessarily expect anything beyond a reasonable aptitude point for whatever level the class was.
