Agreed. As someone who did almost no laddering for the past year and a half, (not since before Garchomp ban) I vividly remember how Infernape was used. Infernape will likely not dominate by any means, Vaporeon and Cress will still do in MixApe every single time. As for SD Infernape, the set is...

Own my own, I've done quite a bit of reading about sociology, politics, history, and economics. I find the impact on macroeconomics on public policy to be very interesting. I read Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation in high school, and I've been primarily hooked on non-fiction concerning public...

Atlas Shrugged is a narrative about civilization, and the personal philosophies most suited to a society that embraces Enlightenment ideals. Personally, I thought the book was poorly written. Ayn Rand seems less interested in presenting nuanced, human characters who live real lives than she...

Seconded. You may not like the policies that Obama espouses, but he has indeed made many proposals during the campaign. They're all over his website. You may not like his proposals (or believe them), and no one is asking you to. Just try not to buy into the propaganda. Why would a politician...

N64. The best games I have ever played, and it was more or less the first time that four people could sit down for multiplayer. PSX had the multitap, but it was clunky as hell and someone would always forget to bring it over. Golden Eye? Banjo Tooie? Jet Force Gemini? Mario Tennis? True...

Seconded. I played the first one on a regular basis for almost two years before getting tired of it. Probably the only GC game I played nearly as much as Melee. Most replay value I have ever seen in a single player game :) It looks as though Nintendo is going to be lazy and not do anything...

Confirmed, ggs.

I PM'd Havak yesterday. Hopefully we can get this match done soon.

In my opinion, the whole sword idea would make more sense if it was a smaller blade or jackknife. Making quick slashes with one of those like a FE thief/assassin would fit with the "speed" theme, at least more than the claymore/wu dao concept that they seem to be working with now. My little...

Confirmed. gg

That's actually a very good question. When I was typing my response, I remember thinking that a woman could only not notice the growing baby if she was somewhat obese, in which case she wouldn't find out until labor. I hadn't considered someone actually finding out in late term. I might tell...

Hmm...the more I think about this topic the more convinced I get that American culture (since it's the one where this topic always comes up) first really needs to come to a consensus on when meaningful human life begins. If you consider a 3 week old fetus to be fully human, you're probably not...

I eat a fairly balanced diet. Basically whatever my mother cooks, plus mega vitamins, along with TV dinners (Though I try to stay away from those). Recently, I've started cooking, and everything I make is vegan, so that helps things I suppose. I've been skinny all my life but I'm trying not to...

Hmm...I categorize myself as quite liberal on all accounts. With that said, I'm currently trying to learn more about finance and government so that I can better understand the issues. Also, if you're willing to state your opinions on a particular topic of contention, like gun control or health...
