| Topic | If you had to move to Canada, what province would you live in? And why? |
| geno_16 07/19/18 3:24:54 AM #40 | Zikten posted... I should probably say Yukon cause I live in Alaska. and it's Canada's Alaska. but I think Yukon has even less people in it than Alaska does. Yukon has only 4.8% of the population that Alaska has. 35,874 to Alaska's 739,795. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | How do foreigners get on America's Got Talent? |
| geno_16 07/18/18 1:39:24 AM #2 | Are we just going to ignore the fact that the four judges consist of two Brits, a German, and a Canadian? The "America" part only pertains to the geographical location on Earth in which it takes place. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| geno_16 07/16/18 8:28:14 PM #81 | Hayame Zero posted... I would be more bothered by Bond not being from the UK than his race, so I'd be fine with Elba. He's already been played by two non-Brits, an Australian and an Irishman. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | On average, how many alcoholic drinks do you consume every week? |
| geno_16 07/15/18 12:58:22 AM #41 | I'll have one beer any night where I don't work the next day, so 2 or 3 a week. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | Video games are the only medium where consumer/user reviews... |
| geno_16 07/14/18 4:12:46 PM #10 | Neither are reliable at all in the video game industry since most user reviews are littered with bias and fanboyism, or are just straight up uninformative like this: Ki_cat_ posted... Hardly. Most user reviews are either "10/10, GOTY! I love it!" Or "4/10, garbage!". While most professional reviews are paid for or at the least they won't bash AAA titles too much even if not paid off since they don't want companies to cut off their early review copies or whatever. Not to mention you can't rely on averages of pro reviews either because tons of reviewers work on this horrible grading system similar to school grades where they treat average as 7 or 8, while horrible failure is a 5 or 6, so a 2/10 game will still have a bunch of 6/10 reviews from these types skewing it's average. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| geno_16 07/05/18 7:43:29 PM #25 | If this Chinese place staffed by Hispanics makes good food, why would I care what race they are? The Japanese and Thai places I go to are staffed entirely by Chinese people, but I don't care because they're good. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | I bought a new gun today. We SG-1 now! |
| geno_16 07/05/18 5:41:23 PM #17 | Honestly I can't stand the look of the PS90. Between that hilariously oversized top rail and the stupidly long civilian barrel, it just looks horrible IMO. It's a shame there's no single-fire P90 without the civilian barrel (although I'm guessing it has to be like that for importation reasons or something since the MP5's civilian variant has the same thing). --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| Topic | 6/2(1+2) |
| geno_16 07/04/18 2:24:49 AM #38 | If the slash is mean to represent a fraction rather than a division symbol than it should be written "6/(2(1+2))" and the answer would be 1. However since it isn't the assumption should be that the slash does represent a division symbol in which case the answer is 9. That said, any proper mathematician would write this equation "(6/2)(1+2)" to avoid any possible confusion. The way it's written in the topic title is done on purpose to be misleading. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | Why do 2k games get bad reviews on steam? |
| geno_16 07/02/18 2:06:15 AM #7 | I don't know about all 2K games, but I know Civilization 6 has tons of negative reviews because of 2K's DLC method of charging $5 to $10 for one new Civ and nothing else, and almost never putting them on sale on top of that (this summer sale right now is the first time I've ever seen them on sale). More recently 2K and other publishers have also come under fire for packing in Red Shell spyware and changing their EULAs without informing consumers. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | What's your LEAST favorite movie of ALL time? |
| geno_16 06/28/18 2:42:43 AM #12 | Highlander 2: The Quickening I defy you to find a sequel that shits on the first movie more than the original theatrical release of Highlander 2. In a vacuum Highlander 2 is a straight-up bad movie, and then when you take into account everything it contradicts and ruins compared to the first film is truly becomes one of the worst movies ever made. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| geno_16 06/22/18 6:06:54 PM #68 | Zeeak4444 posted... Could you imagine if someone said hockey shouldn't have shootouts. Hockey shouldn't have shootouts. It's a bullshit method of breaking ties that eliminates 90% of the game and turns what should be a team effort into an individual competition. I cannot fathom how anyone could think shootouts are a good thing in any sport. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

The Northern Mariana Islands are a territory of the US similar to Puerto Rico or Guam. Svalbard and Jan Mayen are territories of Norway.

| Topic | So Elder Scrolls VI is in High rock |
| geno_16 06/11/18 1:00:35 PM #62 | Honestly High Rock is probably the last place I'd want ES6 to take place in since it's terrain and setting is basically just a warmer Skyrim. It's still heavily mountainous and rocky like Skyrim, just less snow. Something like Hammerfell or Summerset Isles would be a much more drastic change in setting that it would help the game feel less like "Skyrim 2". Also High Rock is small, so unless they're going to combine it with Hammerfell like in Daggerfall, they're either going to have to make the map smaller than Skyrim or have to change the scale of the world. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| geno_16 06/08/18 10:34:30 PM #119 | In light of Warframe's recent update, cursor menu controls on console. Fuck every single programmer who's implemented it in a video game to the ninth circle of hell.

| geno_16 06/02/18 6:52:08 PM #49 | Bio1590 posted... If Ontario actually votes a Conservative party led by Doug Ford into a majority government they deserve to be relentlessly mocked for the rest of time. Ontario already deserves to be relentlessly mocked for voting in Dalton and Wynne's Liberals over and over again for 15 years. Electing Ford's Conservatives now would just be par for the course. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | C/D: Ohio = garbage tier state. |
| geno_16 05/27/18 2:55:18 AM #8 | As a former 9 year resident of Ohio, C. Seriously there isn't shit in Ohio. I admit I've never been to Cincinnati or Columbus, but I'd been to Cleveland several times and the only notable things there are the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and a river so polluted it's caught fire several times. I guess if you like baseball Jacob's Field is apparently a nice stadium. I was only there once and I was 6, so I barely remember it. I guess Ceder Point was pretty cool, although it's been about 15 years since I was last there so I have no idea what it's like now. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| geno_16 05/13/18 7:58:22 PM #7 | Must've been Easy level AI. A Super Hard AI would've used the Lamp and got the Star, had the next Star spawn 10 spaces away, rolled exactly a 10 to get it too, then have the space they ultimately land on be a Battle Mini-Game space, which of course they win and they get all their money back so they win any possible tie situation. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | What's your McDonald's order? |
| geno_16 05/13/18 7:49:19 PM #64 | Generally just a Big Mac combo, and even then only when I have coupons. McDonalds is stupidly expensive here in Canada considering the quality of the food. If I'm in the US however, I generally get a bunch of things off the 2 for $3 menu. Two 6-pack McNuggets and then two of whatever burgers or chicken sandwiches are on the menu. $6 for two burgers and 12 McNuggets is unreal. A single 6-pack of McNuggets is around $6 here and the "small" burgers like the Jr. Chicken or Bacon Cheeseburger are something like $2.79 each, so the same meal here would cost you almost $20. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

| Topic | Finally got around to watching TLJ. What a fucking waste of a character Spoilers |
| geno_16 04/02/18 5:04:22 PM #36 | ForestLogic posted... Just out of curiosity, were there any female villains besides Captain Phasma (who barely even counts)? In what Disney is counting as canon the only other one I can think of is the female bounty hunter at the very start of Episode 2 that Obi-Wan and Anakin chase through the city and capture in the night club. I guess there were also females in Jabba's court, but they were just servants and entertainers, not really villains in the same vein as Boba Fett or Bib Fortuna. I suppose there could be female villains in some of the newer novels and such that Disney is counting (though I've never heard of any). Otherwise all the female villains are part of the old EU. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | Talking to this girl who has REALLY stupid kid's names and now I'm nervous |
| geno_16 03/21/18 12:23:09 PM #62 | SavenForever posted... The worst names I've ever heard were Pee-Wee, Colton and Kentucky. Colton's parents were Colts fans and that's when Peyton Manning was still the QB for them. Literally decided that mixing Colts and Peyton together would be a cute name. Colton is an actual name though. It's not even that uncommon. For example, there's two Colton's playing in the NHL right now and a third who just retired a couple years ago. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | How many car accidents have you been in? |
| geno_16 03/16/18 10:00:42 PM #13 | As a passenger, 1. My dad was driving, we were stopped at a red light and the person behind us did not stop. Thankfully enough it was on a slow and busy street so they weren't going very fast and the only damage was minor scratches to the bumpers. As a driver, 0. The closest would be when I was learning to drive I was at a cemetery at night to practice and when I was learning to back into a "parking spot" I hit the snowbank behind me. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |

They do have birthright citizenship too, but the father must have resided legally in the country for at least a year prior to her birth for her to be given Iranian citizenship. The article is vague on the legal status of her parents, but it's quite possible they weren't in Iran for a year before she was born, or they were in the country illegally, which would mean Afghanistan would probably be her only legally recognized citizenship. She might even be stateless since I can't actually find anything on whether or not Afghanistan automatically grants citizenship to children born abroad to Afghan parents, though I would assume they do. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
| Topic | What's your opinion on DLC? |
| geno_16 02/26/18 3:23:20 AM #16 | I have no problem with DLC that's developed after the game's released and expands on an already completed game, like the expansions you'd see on PC games back before DLC was a thing. However way to many companies plan out and develop DLC alongside the development of the main game, and have no shame in doing it, essentially turning $60 games into $70 or $80, especially since way too often those DLCs are not optional extras, they're integral the the main game (looking at you Javik). Those companies and their DLC can fuck right off. --- https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/Q_2580 Mostly traditional stages, the occasional gimmick stage. |
