Your boyfriend constantly reminds you that he isn't picky about women's looks? Wow.


Those at the shallow end of the gene pool...

chubby mole, cold, clammy gut, hairy back matted with sweat, flaccid rodent like genitalia, squinting and huffing like an asthmatic pig

I know. So hard to believe that I used to listen to girls gossip about their crushes on him before we dated. Oh well, there's no accounting for taste.

I don't know. I have high standards for my girl crushes. A&A is constantly reminding me that men are not as picky.

You could say that's an insult

It's obviously only because I'm not actually sexually attracted to girls. I'm not nearly as picky with guy crushes as I am about girl crushes. Still... I just don't get Carrie Fisher or Cumberbatch.

I shall agree w/ Rooster that the Ignore function might be helpful. As to the absurd notion that EJ & I are the same person, I brought that up in the OP. Rooster, you should be shot in the kneecaps, & then have your brains smashed in w/ the butt end of the gun that was used for the 1st action. Just fooling! Or am I? You guess. Fortunately, I'm NOT EJ. Therefore, I'm not a violent man, even when accused of something so vile as that. You just insulted me by comparing me to a boy who hates Jews. You really are one hell of a schkutz. Look the word up yourself, schmuck. Wikipedia defines it well. A--hole.

Well you're ridiculously naive because you can't understand that he is a troll, plain and simple. One of the worst and most uninteresting trolls there are. Plus, you love talking about him for some reason.

He's definitely a troll and I'm starting to believe an alt of Yaakov.

There are only a couple of people who respond to him so the ignore function would still be appropriate.

Those at the shallow end of the gene pool can't afford to be picky about women's looks, but the rest of us make it our number one priority. Men don't go around thinking "I'd love to bang the hell out of her personality".

I don't think you read that sentence correctly. He is not a Carrie Fisher fan.

And obviously you don't if you would finish inside Carrie Fisher. She looks like any average girl you'd see on the street. I'm aware a lot of guys care nothing for personality, that's why so many awful little shits are raised.

But in the case of just seeing actors as attractive or not has nothing to do with personality regardless of gender. Which is why I'm convinced it's more her being Princess Leia than Carrie Fisher. Because otherwise it makes as much sense as the Benedict Cumberbatch fandom.

I will never in my life understand the Carrie Fisher fetish.

She was hot when in the Star Wars movies, and she has an interesting personality. Besides that I don't see the draw.

She's cute. I've never seen the hot. But I guess cute girl + Star Wars = biggest nerd fantasy ever.

I don't know. I have high standards for my girl crushes. A&A is constantly reminding me that men are not as picky.

I would like to know who you think is 'hot'.

Jennifer Connelly, Kate Beckinsale, and Rachel McAdams.

Carrie Fisher just looks like an average cute girl.

You have no popular opinions, Blanko.  Nobody agrees with you.  Nobody likes you.

No, everyone agrees with Blanko's harsh criticisms. Only a minority enjoy Bethesda.

Yeah, I'm usually pretty forgiving as well, but I dunno, I think they're particularly bad at it. A good example of it done right is Dragon's Dogma. I keep getting absolutely entranced by that game; I think it's better than Skyrim on almost every level (minus the insane amount of stuff you can do in Skyrim) and it doesn't feel as shoddy as Skyrim's world does. That said, there are considerably less characters, and the smaller game probably meant they had enough in the budget to hire more than one male and one female local voice actor, but still.

Another thing is that Bethesda games are also heavily moddable. They even give the tool set they use to create the world.

But aside from that, I love big worlds with an almost endless amount of little side quests and dungeons to explore and I generally dislike JRPGs and I really dislike survival horror games.
And c'mon, Bethesda has more than one male and one female voice actor. Let's not exaggerate.

Yeah the engine is terrible, but I always thought the awkward faces and movement was part of the charm.

Really? It's just horribly painful for me. I never feel like I'm interacting with a real character, I always feel like I'm being shoehorned into some weird little box to listen to someone babble out a poorly-written script with horrible acting (most of the time). Way too many of the voiceovers sound like a cold reading, like they're just now seeing their lines, or maybe got a few minutes to think about them. The stiff animations, though...*shudder*...I can never take the games seriously as "exciting" or "dynamic" for that reason. Everything's so stiff and awkward and feels so slipshod, and it just makes the whole experience really 'meh'. That's why I do not think Skyrim is a very good game and never want to play their games more than once.

I'm not picky. If the writing is good and the game playable than any stiffness doesn't bother me. I think they make fun games.

The voice acting does bother me a little though.

Maybe it's just my level of expectation though. It's a video game, not real life. Games with impeccable NPC writing and animation usually don't give you a lot of freedom in exploring the world so it's just a sacrifice I accept.

Everyone is going to die young except me. 8 hours of sleep a day, baby.

Same here on the weekdays. On the weekends it's more like 10 hours.

Too much sleep gives you cancer as well.

Sleep cycles also depend on the person. Some people don't need as much while others need more.

You're still going to get cancer before me.

Challenge accepted.

That depends on how you look @ Mao. He did a great deal of good for China. He did a great deal of bad for China. Had he died in 1950, he'd be a Saint. 1957, a hero. 1966, a flawed but still decent man. He had the misfortune of living too long. But he made China what it is today. W/o him, it would still be a backward shithole, batted around by the British, French, & Russians.

What kind of historian are you?! There's no such thing as "backward". Going by that line of thought you think we're all on one line of progression rather than different cultures and versions of progression. If you mean they wouldn't be as industrialized - maybe. But you can't know that for sure. There may have been a decent leader who didn't force people into starvation and communal living. Most of their "progression" came after his death as he seriously fucked over China.
