| Topic | Did gamefaqs beome an ad clusterf*** for anybody else? |
| DevsChum 04/14/17 9:22:12 AM #32 | They just chose to add NEW ads that disrupt the website. We're talking ads in the middle of the screen. Ads to the sides of the screen. Pop ups in corners of the screen playing sounds. This is not something to report, this is something they did I know. It's nothing new though. Not even remotely. --- |

| DevsChum 04/14/17 9:20:16 AM #90 | So is everyone in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Houston, Fort Worth, etc Nuh uh I drove across Texas once--well actually across the corner of Texas--and actually it wasn't me--but my friend turned on the radio and there was a racist on it and plus California is the best ever anyway so it doesn't even.matter you're lying why are you lying --- |
| Topic | Why are the Easter holidays considered anti-semitic? |
| DevsChum 04/14/17 9:14:51 AM #10 | It's the whole "The Jews killed Jesus" thing. ... I really can't imagine anyone being mad about this. The Christians killed half of the Middle East in the Crusades but you know what that was a long time ago. --- |
| Topic | Why do they give their kids such weird names? |
| DevsChum 04/14/17 9:11:15 AM #63 | There should ne some kind of system in place where you can name your kid whatever they want because free speech but when the kid grows up they can sue you if you gave them a terrible name. --- |
| Topic | Advertisements everywhere for Cinco de Moe's |
| DevsChum 04/14/17 8:55:07 AM #1 | Billboards, web ads, cannot escape from Cinco de Moe's, drowning in Cinco de Moe's... man this must be a great deal they're promoting or something. *googles it* They're literally giving away T-shirts. Literally T-shirts. Dammit Moe's if you're gonna bombard us with this crap at least make it worthwhile. --- |
| Topic | How big was the MOAB compared to the Nuke we dropped on Japan? |

| Topic | Can anyone help me out with some basic C++? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 3:55:27 PM #9 | So when you ask a programming question online, it's really bad etiquitte to end the topic with a "never mind" or something similar. It doesn't make much of a difference on CE where the topic will be gone in a few days, but there cpuld always be someone else with your exact problem searching google, and there's nothing more soul-crushing than finding that exact problem but the solution is never given, especially when it's clear that the problem actually was resolved. Even if it seems like a really dumb rookie mistake, make sure you mention what you did that fixed it. Nothing to be embarrassed about; you never stop making those dumb missing semicolon or = instead of == mistakes, no matter how experienced you get. --- |

| Topic | Nintendo discontinues the NES mini |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 3:31:40 PM #23 | Not really. It just looked that way with Nintendo deliberately understocking retailers to falsify a sense of high demand Everyone says this but I can not for the life of me figure out what it would accomplish. Yay everyone thinks everyone wants one. I mean if they did it for a week or two and then released a million of them, that would make a little bit of sense. But what's the point of making everyone want one if you're not even making enough for the people that genuinely wanted one before you tricked everyone else anyway? They didn't raise the price, so it's not that. The only explanation that makes sense is that they just have no clue what they're doing. --- |

| DevsChum 04/13/17 3:21:56 PM #62 | Why are you crying about ad hominems in a topic based off an ad hominem in the first place? Where else? I guess I'll go find a topic with no ad himinems and complain there instead. --- |

| DevsChum 04/13/17 3:17:29 PM #35 | I'm talking in philosophical and scientifc terms, not in terms of human communication. Obviously it's a helpful communication tool, but we're not talking about that, are we? DevsChum: 1 DocFishy: -1 --- |
| Topic | Nintendo discontinues the NES mini |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 3:15:41 PM #6 | One time Nintendo built a house. They grabbed some plywood and started nailing it together. They didn't really know how to keep it on the ground so they decided to put a rock on top of it. Then one of the guys hit his thumb with a hammer. So they rushed him to the grocery store and asked for a paralegal. Despite being informed they needed a doctor at the hospital, Nintendo proceded to grab a floppy disk and rub it over his ankle. They were going to then return to building the house, but they couldn't find it. So they just discontinued the whole thing. --- |

| Topic | What would have happened if the millenial generation fought in WW2? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 2:53:35 PM #39 | Firstly there's no argument in this topic, secondly only TC used millenial as an attack on anyone. An argument as in a point of discussion. I don't even know how anyone implied millenial was an insult or what relevance that has to any potential explanation of what your statement meant, which remains ungiven. --- |

| Topic | How is it possible not to know how to swim? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 2:25:00 PM #18 | Well for one, it depends on the water. It's a lot harder to swim in fresh water than salt of chlorine water. For another, maybe some people panic and exhale all their air and go completely limp. --- |

| Topic | MSN video title: "Scientists don't actually know why anything exists" |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 2:19:45 PM #28 | How leads to why. "How does fire exist?" Through oxygen and elements and blah blah. "Why does that stuff exist to make fire?" Because it just does. The question of "why" is ultimately meaningless. The question of "how" allows us to navigate and bend reality to our will, to a very limited extent. Depends on what you're asking about. The question "why" can do a lot for you, if you're asking about the right topic. --- |

| Topic | Did gamefaqs beome an ad clusterf*** for anybody else? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 2:09:49 PM #29 | Good luck in convincing the staff that it is their job and their job alone to police the ads on GameFAQs and not the users'. What exactly is expected of users? You ask on the help boards and they pretend it's just you. Meanwhile if you look around, you can't throw a rock any direction without it breaking a window of a topic complaining about it. --- |
| Topic | Did gamefaqs beome an ad clusterf*** for anybody else? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 1:36:06 PM #24 | So long as internet advertising is "copy/paste this snippet of javascript into your page", there's no way to actually have any control on what the ads are. I think the question is why are they allowing advertisers the use of javascript instead of just being images. Which come to think is a terrible idea for so many more reasons anyway --- |

| Topic | I wish we had a haggling culture here in America |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:37:08 AM #3 | It really wouldn't be any cheaper at all. Item costs $3. Introduce haggling. Store raises price to $5, anticipating your haggling. If you haggle down to $4, you've spent an extra dollar. If you haggle down to $2.99, they won't sell it. --- |

| Topic | Which is the coolest brands: Playstation or Xbox? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:33:00 AM #2 | Iunno but the reasons I went PS instead of Xbox were MGS2 and that rumor that Xbox was trying to merge PCs and consoles. --- |

| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:29:16 AM #10 | But how does anyone afford a pool membership anyway? I checked a few years ago and the YMCA wanted literlly $70 per month for their most basic membership that included pool access. --- |
| Topic | Protoman vs Bass |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:27:04 AM #5 | Mother f***in Proto Man! This reminds me. I made a personal running gag once when I was testing out an online chat system I had made. Just to have something to talk about in my simulated three-way convsesation I had each participant act all superior about their favorite Mega Man character. John: Mega Man is the Man! Joe: Naw man Bass is the best! Dave: PROTOMAN DAMMIT I don't know why but for some reason that cracked me up so much that in all my future tests O would have somebody just out of the blue yell "PROTOMAN DAMMIT" I'm easily amused, you see. --- |
| Topic | Is swimming an essential life skill? |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:21:28 AM #10 | Not necessarily but there are lots of good reasons to learn anyway, like recreation and the highly unlikely case that you ever actually end up needing to swim for your life and don't have a life jacket. Like, I dunno, if you fall off a bridge. --- |
| Topic | Trump to kill poors to force democrats to sign healthcare bill |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:05:52 AM #16 | The whole reason Obamacare happened is because emergency rooms won't turn you away even if you can't pay. --- |
| Topic | Protoman vs Bass |
| DevsChum 04/13/17 11:02:11 AM #3 | Proto Man for sure. I don't really get how Mega Man and Bass became a game before Proto Man was ever playable but that said Bass is a good character too. --- |
