I feel like Fox News is destroying what is left of its credibility by using such terms as "wannabe dictator" in a manner akin to a child throwing insults at those whom he dislikes.

That looks eerily like the date that the Unix fellows use when calculating standard epoch, almost as though that date were a placeholder for the actual release date of the game, which for some inexplicable reason, is not displaying correctly on the website that you have taken a screenshot of.

coincidental

Maybe. I tend to assume that I am to blame whenever something bad happens.

It was near closing, and as such, everyone on our team was heading to the lockers to stuff our things in. The co-worker in question entered first. I followed soon after. Once I entered the locker room, he let out a sigh indicating his disgust, slammed his locker door, then slammed the exit on his way out. I assume that this is because I have a tendency to never acknowledge him whenever we are in the same room, unless the rest of the team is there. I tend never to exchange a hello with him in passing; and as I've reiterated before, I tend not to do so with virtually anyone else in the building. Anyway, his feelings were the only thing in my mind as I drove back home. How I had thoroughly neglected him, and hurt his feelings still lingers in my mind. I would feel better if his actions indicated disappointment that he had not left before I had entered. But now all I feel is guilt. I just despise myself thoroughly for it; I'm just too shy. It's all too nerve-wracking. The only time I care about when others feel bad, is when I am the cause of it. I will not deny that I am selfish in this respect. I just don't know what to do anymore with these tiring social interactions and such. What say you, board?

I must have these answers.

you wouldn't remember any other days you lived, and you wouldn't remember reliving the same day over and over

Since I wouldn't remember the days that culminated in the day that I deem to be the best, I would have no way of knowing whether or not it would be my best. To me, it would just be a regular day with no special significance. Moreover, if I were to forget every other day I ever lived, then I would essentially be a figurative vegetable in that day. And if I did retain my memories of how to walk and talk and so forth, the last condition would basically guarantee that I am stuck in an infinite time-loop with no way out, if we exclude the possibility of my developing deja vu during those time cycles. All in all, were I to take this deal, I would essentially be trapped in an inescapable hell without even knowing it, and because I don't know it.

I am most confused. Your self-proclaimed increase in girth implies that you are able to purchase more than is necessary to eat, implying that the economy is working to your favor.

Kingdom Hearts II, if you count finishers as "critical damage". I'm fairly certain, though, that critical damage is defined to be something else in that game.

I don't. That's one of the reasons why I tend to hold back on any jokes that I make. I genuinely don't know if anything I say may be misconstrued as hurtful or cruel. Moreover, I know that I am far from emotionally close enough to anybody to be joking around with them. It's not a fun life. But it is a life where nobody shows any signs of openly hating me.

I destroy everything nice.

I don't mean to advise on your condition. But that is one of the worst mind-sets I have ever read in my life.

Yes. I'm almost always awkward in public. I find it frightening to make and maintain eye contact. My heart starts pumping whenever I am forced to engage in conversation. I can only stare and stare, hoping that the agony of the silence brought on by my ostensible lack of social skills will end. I rarely know what to talk about. I am never able to offer anything more than an answer to a query that figuratively roped me into a given conversation, and answers to any subsequent queries. I tend to stumble on my words overoften. I end up babbling and making a complete fool of myself. I tend to avoid eye contact when passing others; they likewise shun me. I am afraid to engage again with those whom I either shun or exchange awkward conversation with, for the reason that I fear that they despise me already. I often don't know what to talk about in any case. From what I've shamelessly eavesdropped on, my co-workers seem to be engaged in a realm of interests with only a little common ground with mine. It is hard to take interest in that which I claim to take interest in nowadays anyway, so any conversation had regarding what I claim are my current interests will inevitably result in a conversation bare of life and of genuine apathy for the subject matter being discussed. I never feel alright shunning people. I am always left with guilt whenever I feel that I have either shunned someone, or failed to satisfy the amount of conversation that they were naively expecting from me. But the need to make eye-contact, and the need to contribute to any hypothetical conversation I may have is too daunting for me to even want to make contact. I claim always that I am miserable in my solitude, emotional and otherwise. It's just too hard. All the world is just whitenoise to me nowadays, and unfortunately, the people around do not amount to much more. I feel very bad regarding them in such a way. I admit that I tend to avoid eye-contact also because it helps me see them less as beings with emotions that can be hurt by either my neglect or actions. I also avoid eye-contact because I am afraid of those whom I have shied away from. The need to make social contact is a great drain on my energy levels; I imagine that my co-workers feel exactly the same way about my reluctance to make social contact. They may think that I am not fond of them; I am not proud of how that would make them feel, if they would feel anything because of me. I'm just a figurative bundle of tightly-knotted nerves during the week. Only during the weekend can I truly relax. But being alone offers its own misery also, as I've said before.

Only if you

Are teenagers so casual about relations, that they would carelessly toss them in a bargain that would gain them the opportunity to appear at some social event with a partner, and consequently dignity? Or did you include this option in the poll as a joke?

Is this in reference to a computer, or to a machine that automates a gambling activity?

Salad and tea wish to have a word with you.

He will argue that those fall into the zero-point-one percent of exceptions. This argument is largely meaningless, since he will classify any counterexamples as falling into that percentage of exceptions. His argument figuratively boils down to the fact that most food should be eaten hot, and most drinks should be drunk cold, which is generally true. I don't know why this topic is even necessary to argue this point.

Sheer complacency, I should think. They thrive off their previous success, feel no motivation to exceed it, and then end up making games without putting in much effort, because people will buy them anyway, solely due to brand recognition and the nostalgia factor.

Hypothetically, wouldn't the store clerk refuse the five-hundred-dollar bill, since it is no longer in circulation?

This one is preferable to the other, as the chances of my meeting any of those lot again are fairly slim, I should think.

Disappointingly enough, I never learnt the difference during my undergraduate studies. I'll paraphrase a loose definition for each using a Google-search.

Inductive reasoning is the process of investigating a sample of test cases, analyzing an attribute that is common among the sample, then reasoning that the attribute is present in all cases that are of the same order as the cases in the sample.

Deductive reasoning is the process of inferring conclusions from known information, proven results, axioms, and the like.

I must have these questions.

I'm procrastinating on finding a respectable career. I've stopped searching for the time being because I've still no idea about where I want to go, speaking in both the literal and figurative sense.

To answer the question, though, I'd name it "the S.S. Excess", because it will be quite humorous listening to people trying to pronounce it too quickly, and also to some assuming that it's an acronym when it really isn't.
