Just post whatever comes to mind.
Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.
If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.
Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

Again, this is just something I've noticed. I'm probably overreacting.
I've got two guns pointed west and a broken compass.

Those things are (unfortunately) pretty common to VG forums.

As an example of a useful, general idea, consider that of the controlled experiment. There's an idea that has turned out to be widely applicable. Some might say it's part of science, but it's not part of any specific science; it's literally meta-physics (in our sense of "meta"). The idea of evolution is another. It turns out to have quite broad applications—for example, in genetic algorithms and even product design. Frankfurt's distinction between lying and bullshitting seems a promising recent example.

True. I left Gamespot for the same reasons after all.
I just admitted I used to frequent Gamespot. Don't worry, I'm better now.

@Norn, Tze: Fun fact; Paul Graham's undergraduate degree was in philosophy.
See, what I like about that movie is that the players use their puzzle-solving skills, acquired through role-playing, to save Robbie's life.

Crack is now the queen of the shipping/dating thread.
The queen is dead; long live the queen.
Wait, who was the old queen?
you'll then have a grave in the clouds where you won't lie too cramped
That thread is dead. The queen left long ago.

^^^^Worse, we have many GameFAQs refugees here, so don't feel bad. :/
@Norn, Tze: Fun fact; Paul Graham's undergraduate degree was in philosophy.Huh. And Alan Kay was a jazz guitarist. These things are not helping my indecisiveness in that regard.

I'm one of the aforementioned Gamefaqs refugees.
"I can't imagine what Hell will have in store, but I know when I'm there, I won't wander anymore."
That thread is dead. The queen left long ago.When did "Okay." become an acceptable response to a thread? Is this some new meme?
An old one, I thought.

I was one too, but I mostly stayed in some of the social boards, dead ones, and the Big Rigs Over The Road Racing board. My stay was generally pleasant.

I think «Okay.» is the new/old «cool story bro».
the future we had hoped for
It's hard to predict what life will be like in a hundred years. There are only a few things we can say with certainty. We know that everyone will drive flying cars, that zoning laws will be relaxed to allow buildings hundreds of stories tall, that it will be dark most of the time, and that women will all be trained in the martial arts.
What's wrong with the GameFAQs/Gamespot forums?
(I have an account on GS, but it's only because CNET tied it with my TV.com one)
Another Perfect Day
I've never visited GameFAQs, but Gamespot...if /b/ were whole milk, Off-Topic would be reduced fat.

Sounds like a good future to me.

So Qwest doesn't offer ESPN3.
This is bad.
Is that the online one?
the future we had hoped for
Recently I've been seeing Video Games as IJBM's little brother. Ironically enough, that just bugs me.
