I am reminded of the time I was walking out of a mall into the parking lot and there was a father and child walking maybe 10 paces behind me in the same direction. A car drives behind them playing something relatively benign on the local FM station, and he says something to the kid about the devil's music.
I don't really care about winning debates. I just want the other person to acknowledge whatever data or insights I bring to the table and adjust his argument accordingly, even if it's just to better refute my points. My roommate can't even do that, and it's somewhat maddening.
Anyone else seen King of Kong? Watched it last night and really enjoyed it a lot.
I loved it. Watching these pee-wee Benedict Arnolds - some of whom were really genuinely hateable - try and steamroll this one decent guy over a Donkey Kong score turned what could have been a cute little Ira Glass-ish "oh, aren't these people weird" thing into a fucking epic, and the final payoff was so satisfying.
I'm getting really annoyed by the times in mass effect where shepard gives the exact same responses in a conversation for all of the very different options.

I believe my ex is now dating this guy who works for the same company as she does.
Do I either A.) Live and let live, forget about it, and go about living my life
or B.) attempt to humiliate her in the worst way possible.
Keep in mind that this is both the crazy bitch and also the girl who feigned interest in getting back together with me so she could bilk me out of two dinners and a movie.

My interest in you is also proportional to my level of hunger.
Chum.
Anyway, I wouldn't humiliate a person unless it was really easy and anonymous. What would you have to do?

Supposedly they've cut that crap out for the sequel.
I'm at Virmire, and I'm all like, "Wrex, I totally understand. We'll find a way to resolve this peacefully and without condemming the lizardmen to death".
But the only actual option is a middle road between understanding and aggressive.
But I guess it is kinda unfeasible to voice three lines for every segment of every conversation.

Oh there are several things I could do, with varying levels of crazy and spitefulness. I dont think i'm going to actualy go through with any of it though.

What was really annoying about Virmire
(and we should spoiler stuff like this btw)
Was that I couldn't say "hey we kill these guys then take their research instead of blowing everything up without even bothering to download some files to a flash drive or kidnap their lead scientist or something" Why do we have to destroy everything? I liked Wrex and the krogan and wouldn't mind resurrecting them.

they must be one of those new rock and roll bands i've been hearing so much about
Oddly enough, my favorite euphimism for sex.
Do you think The Beatles are overrated, nexus?
Best movie reference ever.
(Sorry for bad quality. Goddamn UK stone age YouTube).
Is this opposite day?
Wow, he managed to make her feel bad for what was a major screw up of his? o_O
I'm just a bitter old man
But I can't be arsed to go read all the journals I would need to in order tio refute his point as I'm not an Egyptologist nor Asyriologist.
Convinced me to never have children. I don't need some kid wailing to me about pee pee while I'm conducting serious videogame business.

Luckily, you don't have to be.
Why bother? He's clearly mentally ill. He is, impressively, even less likely to listen to a contrary opinion than the other D&D ideologues.
You cannot win a debate with him.
In fact, that's my test of whether a person is worth debating with. Can you imagine winning? If not, what's the point?
Of course, the corollary is important too.
He wasn't wailing about pee pee. He needed his butt wiped. Big difference. When fecal matter becomes involved, shit gets serious.
Also, this is adorable.

Good start, right?
Sounds like a winning start to the day. :P
Good start to what, exactly?
Oh you have no-fucking-idea my friend.

Also:
Yeah well, till you get Ivy with her I won't be impressed. :P

You and me Robos, we're like this.

WHY HELLO NEXUS! HOW ARE YOU TODAY?!
I am well
I'm on vacation but it's fucking cold as balls outside
I brought in some Morritz Dark chocolate icy squares today. They are taunting me even now and my boss has just had one. This does not bode well...
