Sorry Alex, I seem to have caused your intelligent discussion thread to devolve into yet another me-against-the-world free for all.

Maybe I should just leave.

Pornography encourages behavior in me which I do not like. Is it so bad, then, that I do not take pride in having an addiction? You will note that until just now, I have not said that pornography is bad. Even by my opening statement, I have not condemned pornography. I have indicated that I do not w...

Nobody's saying hedonism is bad, and nobody's saying that having standards is bad. The thing we're saying is, if you do it, why not admit it? What's the problem with admitting it? Now, if you do something that you yourself are uncomfortable with and believe is wrong, that's another issue entirely. ...

I recall a friend of mine commonly mis-hears a portion of the chorus from a Blind Guardian song I can't remember the name of(same guy who showed me Fishmaster, linked above). And from the banks, as chance would have it, the sub-primes had turned into primes [edit]It's from The Soulforged. Original v...

Is this because you guys operate on the assumption that you'll be hacked one day and someone will find it? ... The reason why I don't hide it much is that I'm not ashamed of some of the things I enjoy and don't mind discussing them in appropriate venues. What, so now it's a bad thing to not want to...

I think Airsoft is cheaper on the low-end(I have one airsoft gun which set me back $15-20 at purchase and protective gear is basically something to keep the pellets out of my eyes and ears) than paintball, and due to the lower muzzle velocities involved, can be played in places you can't play Paintb...

To read the contents of my previous post, hit the Quote button.(I waited for madAlric's post because I try to avoid multiposting.) Alternately, Matt or Paul will probably be along in an hour or two and remove what makes it invisible(the exclamation mark at the end of the URL.) I wonder if it works e...

This link: http://wiki.loadingreadyrun.com/index.php/Ask_An_Alex_Live_-_Again! >apparently you can't end hyperlinks in exclaimation marks in the forum > if I put it in [url][/url] it makes the whole post come up blank That is bizarre. As anyone reading this can guess, I've already come up with a...

Hmm yes, to recap... Debit cards in the US all have Credit features these days, most of us just get the debit card and use it as a credit card. The nearest city to where I live is Manitou Springs. It'd probably take half the day to ride a bike down there, and we're right at the foothills of the Rock...

You need to get out more.

Probably, as most of my friends also play DnD, and I'm trying to get away from it.

They're mostly Munchkins, anyway.(There is a reason I had a level 3 Droid in Star Wars D20 who had a +25 to his computer use...)

Regarding my apparent paranoia about suddenly finding myself disbarred from reading the forums here... Allow me to explain. The last(and really, only) forum I was banned from had a stated policy of giving troublemakers a very clear warning and holding a convene of the administration before issuing a...

Psychiatric ward is like prison, except you have to pay rent.

Most of the people I know play it.

Or used to, until they couldn't afford it any more.

And by "Couldn't afford," I mean "Ran out of food and couldn't pay their rent."

Never said I wasn't.

Sanity's a harsh mistress.

It's impossible to argue with dogmatic fanatics. No matter what you say, they'll just respond with the same thing. Which is why I'm a big fan of the "Burn 'em all and let God sort it out" solution. He's better than we are at it, anyway. (I recognize the above line is giving LRR license to ...

I wouldn't find it surprising for any given person to be a WoW player. Most people with computer/internet access are.

Yuki, if you have nothing more constructive to add to this than a wounded, self-righteous, persecution complex then don't participate. And, in keeping with that, you're posting on a message board run by candians, who themselves identify as left-leaning for canadians on a board populated predominant...

While I agree that lavishing un-scrutinized praise upon the president is a bad and clearly wrong path, and he has certainly has made a few mistakes already, he is undoubtedly above the company of those men. I do have to give the President credit: he thinks what he's doing is right. So do Beck and L...

'twould only be fair. Conservative threads have been locked for less here.

Difference? None. I'm sure there are those who will think this 9-12 thing is the most awesome thing in awesometown, just like there are those who believe the same of El Presidente. My belief is that the reality is somewhere in the middle; there are shades of gray to everything. Edit; And when I say...

And the President's "Change you can believe in" is going to make it impossible for the people who need jobs most to get them, drain on those who actually have jobs, and won't actually change any of Bush's policies that he promised he'd change.

Difference?

Better than nothing, at least.

Man, I'm glad they didn't have those rules anywhere I went to school.

Next they're gonna make it a crime to use the school bathroom facilities.

So apparently, it's not OK to hate on Obama, but it is OK to hate on Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh, or any other Conservative figurehead?

I'll bother contributing when the hypocricy is gone from this thread.

No, why do you ask?
