| Topic | The gamecube controller is straight gabage... |
| Polycosm 12/23/18 3:14:17 AM #55 | I hate the GCN controller for most games, yet there are some that I absolutely can't play without it (e.g. Smash). The main problem is the layout of the four right-hand thumb buttons; they're extremely limiting when it comes to rolling your thumb or hitting other buttons while holding one down. The issue is perhaps best illustrated by the Mega Man X collection on GCN. You can't hold a charge-shot and combo your jump / dash at the same time. --- I bow before my emperor, Advokaiser-- winner of the 2019 guru contest. (thengamer.com/guru) |

| Topic | Should basic personal finance be part of high school curriculum? |
| Polycosm 12/19/18 7:32:22 PM #40 | Personal Finance should be a junior-year core requirement. Of course no young adult fresh out of high school can afford a mortgage, but plenty are locking themselves into college tuition loans which they'll be stuck with for decades. These topics shouldn't be relegated to a three-day sub unit of Algebra class. --- I bow before my emperor, Advokaiser-- winner of the 2019 guru contest. (thengamer.com/guru) |

Actually, I don't know why I'm even engaging with this. This guilt-by-photograph game is plainly stupid to begin with. --- I bow before my emperor, Advokaiser-- winner of the 2019 guru contest.

| Polycosm 12/05/18 2:55:55 PM #11 | Sometimes her inexperience shows. She also mangled an interview or two in a similar way, leading up to the election. Over all though, I'm extremely impressed with her. She ran her primary like a total pro and she's deftly handling the obsessive amount of criticism coming at her from the Right. I wish I agreed more with her on policy, because I think she might lead the Democratic Party some day. --- BKSheikah owned me so thoroughly in the 2017 guru contest, I'd swear he used the Lens of Truth to pick his bracket.
