Topic	"Funny Games" movie pisses me the fuck off
loafy013 05/01/24 2:36:33 PM #52	bigblu89 posted... I would have to watch the actual movie, because it reads like a twist that comes out of nowhere when you read the plot summary. Like, it sounds like a normal home invasion horror movie, and then the second the heroine gets the upper hand the bad guy ~~breaks the 4th wall, grabs a TV remote and "rewinds" the movie, undoing the heroine's actions~~. I'm not here to argue the merits of the movie, becasue like I said I have not seen it, but that sounds like a "what can we do to make this different from every other home invasion horror flick, while also insulting the audience's intelligence?" I did see the movie when it came out, and this does sound like an accurate summary. Defense of the movie always strikes me as the "I am very smart" crowd and like it makes them special because you aren't pretentious enough to get it. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

Topic	Trump says "he was too nice in his first term".
loafy013 04/30/24 8:00:56 PM #27	CountCorvinus posted... It's Joe Biden, so I'm not expecting anything revolutionary like promising universal healthcare, free college, decriminalizing weed and expanding SCOTUS. It's just when 78% of your voter base wants a ceasefire to the genocide Biden is funding with our tax dollars, and he responds by calling those who protest antisemitic, it makes me question whether he actually wants to get reelected at all. And then he signs a bill banning TikTok, an app instrumental in many young peoples' activism? Remember the reports of republicans being upset that they couldn't fundraise off Pelosi being speaker anymore? I think that the DNC feels the same way about Trump and are underestimating how much of a threat he actually is. So you think the only ways that Biden can get people excited for him is to stop sending money to Israel and to let people have their data harvested by China via TikTok. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

loafy013 04/30/24 7:54:27 PM #14	pegusus123456 posted... To give an idea of how advanced, their cars run on nuclear batteries. It's funny, there's a "gas" station in one of the series' episodes, but if you look closely at the sign, they're selling coolant. That is nothing when it comes to being advanced.

Topic	Do you believe that Biden "truly cares" about the american people?
loafy013 04/30/24 7:23:43 PM #41	Deegs posted... Promise might be too strong a word but it was in the news in late 2019: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/474027-biden-indicates-he-will-only-serve-one-term-as-president-report/ You should read the articles you link to. The rumors were coming from unverified aides. Here is what came from a campaign manager officially. Kate Bedingfield, Bidens deputy campaign manager and communications director, declined Politicos request for comment but later tweeted this is not a conversation our campaign is having and not something VP Biden is thinking about. Lots of chatter out there on this so just want to be crystal clear: this is not a conversation our campaign is having and not something VP Biden is thinking about. https://t.co/mXNEnX6GrU Kate Bedingfield (@KBeds) December 11, 2019 --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

Topic	SC declines to block enforcement of age-verification requirements for porn sites
loafy013 04/30/24 7:06:23 PM #175	Robot2600 posted... we knew this was a bad fucking idea in 1997 yet somehow, almost 30 years later we've regressed to pre-1960s levels of maturity surrounding sexuality. even if you agree with this law for some unknown reason, the implications are very bad. then books start to be labeled "porn" then even bikini pics are labeled "porn" (sound fucking familiar?) and now M-rated games are "porn" then R-rated movies are porn then pg-13 movies etc I think you're overthinking what will happen. I don't see them labeling random stuff porn. Being Texas, what will be labelled porn is anything regarding LGBTQ+ stuff that implies they are people like anybody else. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.

Topic	Trump says "he was too nice in his first term".
loafy013 04/30/24 6:54:27 PM #22	CountCorvinus posted... It just shows that the Democratic Party doesn't actually see Trump as a threat. If I was Biden's handler, I'd be pressuring him to do things that would make people excited to vote for him, instead of doing the exact fucking opposite. It's like they want Biden to lose. What are 3 things you think Biden could be doing to excite people? I assume Israel/Palestine stuff is a given for you. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact.

Topic	Stellar Blade's censorship bothers you
loafy013 04/28/24 9:49:20 AM #118	Calwings posted... Here's a recent example: https://nichegamer.com/blue-protocol-censored-on-playstation-in-japan/ So to sum it up: a Japanese game had to edit outfits to cover more skin and remove a jiggle physics slider, and these changes only applied to the Playstation version. I don't know about you, but that sounds like censorship forced by Sony, and what they were forced to censor seems pretty tame compared to *literally being allowed to fuck a bear* in Baldur's Gate 3. I have a feeling that the outfits that were changed were those worn by the underage characters. Don't know why people get so mad at sony for not wanting sexualized minors on their systems. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes. That's fact. Everything else, is theory.

Boy, that chart looks terrible. But I have to ask, is there a reason there is no information for 2010-2013 and 2015-2022? Because it seems to me like they cherry picked those dates to get a low number to make the current atrocities look even worse by comparison. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

I think ideally thats how you rid the world of the issues that plague it, through education and a willingness to engage in discussion. Yeah, no.

Got a Megaman one as well but don't remember which game in the series it was. There was a handful of times where steelbooks were also on a first come/first serve basis instead of being a different edition so a preorder was your best chance to snag one. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

And it's not, but the design is like, blatantly based on Svengoolie, since the character is also based on them, and it got us talking because we both like Svengoolie, and it was a pleasant conversation while we were both waiting in line. It was a fun conversation that the t-shirt caused, even though it wasn't actually directly related. I understand if you want to remain vague, but I have to ask. Are you from the Chicago area? I grew up watching Son of Svengoolie but thought it was strictly a local thing. If it was broadcast to a larger area that is cool to know. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.

I wonder if the cleaning simulator genre is a sociological experiment to get kids excited about cleaning, making them wanting to become a custodial later in life? Nah, it just gives that dopamine hit a lot of people get from "oddly satisfying" type videos. I worked for the city for a summer and got to use a sandblaster.

Topic	What's wrong with Magic: The Gathering?
loafy013 04/19/24 6:46:04 PM #30	I'm really old. First played around the time Arabian Nights came out, stopped after Fallen Empires where I felt it was just getting too bloated. About 10 years ago went to a little instore tournament with my brother and his brother in law. I had no idea what was going on anymore. Every card had something special it could do. Graveyard seemed to be treated like another draw pile. Found out mana burn wasn't a thing anymore. And for a draft style set-up, a few players had some really worn cards, almost like they didn't come out of an unopened pack. What bugged me the most was constantly hearing that after I ended my turn, opponents start going "right before you end your turn, I tap all this crap and do this stuff, and you can't react to it since you said your turn was over." --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.
