    I bought a DS game and a plug adapter so I can power my DS and play it but for some reason my DS charger doesn't work with the adapter. :(

    Hate to bring a dumb argument into chat, but my god the leap of anti logic that created this post hurts my brain.

    I'm not watching that thread, but is he arguing that figure skaters should wear ugly clothes?

    No that a judge judging based on a skater wearing something sexy, is equivelent to fucking ones boss for a promotion.

    Ah, one of those people who can't see shades of grey. Got it.

    I guess, my riposte was mainly to dismiss the person because I really can't even see where they are coming from when they think its an appropriate analogy. I mean honestly.

    I love how the little MPAA box for that movie specifically mentions the smoking caterpillar.

    Oh god it's going to make little Johnny want to light up!

    Stephen Fry is worth appreciating

    I have the biggest intellectual-crush on Stephen Fry and have done for years and years.

    I think a perfect day would be spent with Stpehen Fry talking about geekery and gadgetry and books and ancient civilisations and...

    ok. this is making me too hot.

    Actually, the best advice I can give is to watch the first two thirds of the movie, and then theater-hop to a different movie.

    Much like District 9, it starts off with a strong, socially-conscious premise and some effective psychological metaphors... and then can't figure out what the hell to do with them, so it throws them all away and fills in the gaps with generic action flick.

    Some people have really weird views about how sexuality and power work. I've also noticed a correlation between guys who think women have all of the sexual power and how often they get laid. And while correlation isn't causation, I'd be seriously looking at it if I was getting that little sex.

    Women tend to hold out longer for sex than males, that seems to be the big difference. Not always the case but on average a woman can out wait a male.

    Stakes can be made of any wood really, arrows work normally despite the head normally being metal. Make sure to bring rocksalt rounds.

    Wooden bullets are called arrows or bolts, and theoretically they would work. You could also use silver heads.

    I'm warning you now he gets like three scenes.

    Three scenes flavored with delightfully subtle charisma, admittedly

    Pfft, it's about will power. Towards the end of my marriage, the only thing I had any control over was our sex life. There was a year of celibacy and I left before I broke it. Two ER trips for me resulted from it. But I never got so stupid and fucked in the head to think that sex that makes me want to vomit in shame is a good thing.

    Outlier thom! Most men when offered the opportunity for sex and not encumbered by a relationship will take it, assuming of course attraction, because the laws of supply and demand are always there.
