Honestly I'd just be interested to know why you like something which, to me, seems so self-evidently bad. If you don't want to be forced to defend your opinion, I'd be happy to just read it and thank you for sharing without a more substantive reply.
I thrive on argument. An impassioned, friendly discussion can make my day. But I get that not everyone enjoys it, and I'm always happy to back off if asked.
Returning to the topic at hand:
The Avengers sucked. Discuss.
Good guy brother, letting you be James Bond.
I'm struggling to remember specific good times I had with the console. I remember enjoying the games I played on it, but "I liked Donkey Kong 64" isn't really an entertaining story.
I remember I thought I was super cool when I figured out that the SNES and the N64 used the same RCA connection, so I could just plug the wire into the TV once, and switch the plug on the back of the console when I wanted to switch between the two.
I'm working on a card game right now. Every other time I've tried to make a card game or a board game, I've hit a barrier that I just couldn't resolve. Some kind of mechanical fuckery that makes the game unplayable. With this game, I've actually made it all the way to the prototyping stage. I'm sitting here making cards by hand so I can play with some friends later. I'm worried that it's just not gonna work once its on the table, but this one is at least going to be tested before I throw it out.
Banned.
I really don't know how you can enjoy Spider Man 3. I'm always skeptical any time there's a sort of mass consensus about a movie. (I refuse to believe Avatar is worth the hype. And the '95 Judge Dredd isn't that bad.) But Spider Man 3 is a movie that absolutely deserves the amount of hate it gets. The characters are hateable, their relationships are regressive, the plot is confused and directionless, and the movie's tone is all over the place.
If you wanted to write a huge fuckin' post on why Spider Man 3 is good, I would read it.
If @The Inhaling One gets to abuse it, then I want to as well!
^ Is also actually correct. I've been banned from 4chan several times.
< Is really really bad at designing board and card games. For serious.
V Will share a secret with us that they've always kept hidden from their parents.
I don't know if it has really come up yet, but I play a lot of D&D. Like, a lot. Like, I've written hundreds of thousands of words worth of D&D blogging + book writing, and many of my friends are published D&D writers. The game is kind of a big deal in my life.
Anyway, I just finished playing as a Poet for the first time:

The class is fucking phenomenal. Mechanically it's fascinating and unique. I love the idea of a character having a memorized book to draw on. And the method of spell preparation being tied to significant events in the poet's adventuring was really fun for me to play around with. But my favorite part of playing the class was that it gave me an excuse to constantly interrupt the game with bad poetry.
I had six different poetry websites open in my browser, and I kept making up weird little rhymes for everything we encountered. It was glorious.
Good fucking times.
I really don't like the Toby movies at all. The first one is painfully reminiscent of the months following 9/11. Lots of huge American flags, and the "DON'T MESS WITH NEW YORK" climax. I guess it made us feel better at the time, but in the context of the last 14 years the whole thing is retch-inducing. The second movie is probably the best of the 3, with the train scene being a legitimate tear-jerker for me. And Doc Oc is an actually pretty sympathetic villain. But the movie is filled with so much awful CGI, and the love story between PP and MJ feels so fucking forced, with stupid tacked-on drama between them. And the third movie is just...just fucking bad. Holy christ on a cracker that movie is bad.
The newer movie felt fresh and original-ish. I didn't get around to seeing the sequel that everyone agreed was awful yet, but no matter how bad it is I wish they'd just do a third movie with that actor, rather than jumping to an entirely new actor.
I gotta say, this whole comic book movie thing is getting out of hand. >.>
This might also be a good one. Shortly after my girlfriend and I started smoking weed together, we decided to get really high and watch a Will Ferrel movie, because we were in the middle of watching through all his recent comedies. We had two left at that point: "The Other Guys," and "Casa De Mi Padre." We chose the latter.
For those who haven't seen it, "Casa De Mi Padre" is entirely in Spanish, with English subtitles.
We spent the first 15 minutes of the movie looking at one another and hoping they would start speaking English soon. Eventually we had to turn the movie off because we just couldn't handle reading subtitles. We switched to "The Other Guys," which I had to re-watch a few months later because I remembered absolutely nothing about it.
We've never gotten quite that high again. It wasn't fun at all.
"Casa De Mi Padre" is actually a really good movie, by the way.

V Was too young to use a computer 14 years ago, when Kaynil and I first started playing this game.
This way the forum stays clean and your posts have a way to survive (albeit your post count may be deducted a bit because of this).
But my post count is how I can prove that I'm an important person!
Yeah...motion controls suck.
I drink a lot of water already, which may explain my general lack of hangovers.
One of the times I got drunkest, actually, was when my siblings came to visit me for a weekend. I make a pretty good chili, so we went to the grocery store to buy some ingredients, and load up on booze. I made the unfortunate mistake of choosing to start drinking before I started cooking. It apparently took me over two hours to open all the cans of beans. When I asked them later why no one had offered to help me, they reminded me that they had offered. But I kept assuring them that I could handle it myself.
I feel like looking at this has actually made me a more complete person.
Of course comics count.
How is it you can't find the Walking Dead comics? They're the most popular thing in the world. Even if you don't have a local comic book store, they should be available on Amazon.
Naw mang, the Back To the Future thing is totally intentional.
It's important to remember your canvas bags. Gotta save the earth, yo.
I've gotta go have a meeting with my apartment manager because apparently it's against my lease to have a broken car. Which sucks, because I'm too poor to repair my car. >.>
Ah, yeah. That does seem a little goofy. But sometimes I like goofy. =D
I actually looked up some footage of it on Youtube, it does look surprisingly playable. I'mma try and get my hands on it.
Also, I realized it's probably what they're playing in this video:
Cheap rum was one of the first hard liquors I tried. I fuckin' hated it. It was awhile before I tried a hard liquor again, and discovered that I really enjoy a good whiskey. It's a good way to get silly fast. Beer is pleasant to drink, but at most I get a very light buzz from it. Wine is nice because it's cheap (I've been able to find $3-$5 bottles of Cabernet), pleasant to drink, pairs well with food, and gets me plenty silly.
I've only been drinking for a little more than a year. I don't know why I haven't really gotten hangovers yet. Nothing more than a mild headache anyway.
