I'm impressed by how deep the games are and how you as a player can influence the turn of the story. It takes the whole interactive movie thing to a whole new level imo.

I'm using an EDGE 3200 laser mouse. Hasn't failed me yet.

I never drink diet coke unless I am forced to. I just don't trust it.

I love popcorn but only once in a while. Very easy to get bored of it.

The Tamperer feat. Maya: Feel It

Trying to wake up, I suppose.

I appreciate that. I am a bit weary of people acting hostile to me. But I try not to take it too personally when they do.

Maybe he is just massively unpopular. That's how it seems to be for me at least.

Well, it keeps me sane and balanced. After I became more religious and started praying to God, I just feel it has made me more balanced psychologically and it has helped me deal with a lot of problems that I just previously didn't know how to deal with. I don't see how that is a bad thing. I think the problem with religion comes into place when it's turning into superstition and people place way too much faith in God to the point where they give up their own free will to him...

Ah, so you have tasted actual squid then? How interesting.

I doubt a lot of people can actually sit through 2001. It's one of the slowest movies I've watched. The trippy effects in the latter half of it makes up for it though.

My faith is just not based on any scientific evidence or theories. It is based on emotions and abstract feelings and notions about the world. Can anyone actually find any scientific answer on why we are here or why our bodies look and function like they do or... even better, what makes cells divide, what is life? Why do the trees filter the air for us to breathe, our bodies seemingly designed to live in this environment as if everything was just made to exist like it does? Such abstract questions I feel can only be answered fully by my religion and my faith in it. And that is why I believe in God. I do not in any way want to disprove science, that would be stupid. I just want there to be room for more than just HOW things work, or HOW we came into existence. None of us may not know why, but it helps for me to have a religion to turn to that gives me comfort and strength. Maybe not all of us needs that, but I do.

Uhm... dried squid? lol

I once found a site by a guy who is making real cartridges of Starfox 2, a Super Nintendo game that was never released but was actually more or less finished. A patch is out there that finalizes the game and even translates it. I actually sort of endorse that sort of piracy because there is obviously no other way to get it played on a real console, as I seriously doubt Nintendo has any plans of ever releasing it officially.

A gay asshole's still an asshole. Oh woah, that sounded just a bit different than I had intended... Inevitable innuendo there.

I think everyone agrees that ads are invasive and annoying.

Yeah, doritos and cheetos are awesome, but in general I tend to avoid them because of their inevitable tendency to make my fingers, and by extension my keyboard and mouse messy.

The thing about GlaDOS that sets her apart is that she is creepy yet hilarious at the same time. I never quite got how GLaDOS was a villain, I'd think who built her are the ones who should take the blame. Damned aliens. I always saw her as a humorous take on HAL.

I personally don't hate or even dislike BTG. I understand he is very outspoken and is often the reason a thread tends to go off topic, but in no way do I see it as necessary to flame him. I was joking when I called him a troll and I didn't mean it too seriously. It was a bit of an exaggaration on my part. However, it is obvious that due to his outspoken nature is getting rather unpopular, as is evidenced by his alarmingly low reputation which now is nearing -100...

I imagine a lot of people, especially gamers, likes to enjoy some snack foods once in a while, on a late night maybe or to hold us over between meals. What's your favourite snack foods and why? I'm absolutely bonkers about dried fruit myself, especially dried mango.

With this development time it better be good...

Finally one with a similar name! I'm the not-self-appointed queen of the board. Mostly because I love to post. A lot. That's pretty much all there is to it. ;P

My brain is hurting from reading so much... I'm sorry to say but Michael Archer's posts are discouraging me from spending time in the Civilization Problems forum lately.

I think what it boils down to is just respecting each other.

At least you can drink diet coke. It might induce cancer but what doesn't these days.
