[QUOTE=Samiam22;45013446]Well, I wasn't bothered by them.
I was too busy being bothered some of the most repetitive combat I've ever seen instead.[/QUOTE]
Which is a legitimate grievance. I just think judging a game by some quest text and challenge names referencing internet memes is silly.

Oh damnit that was a veiled attempt at trying to wind you up but then you were all cool about it. Hm.
(though BL2 still had reeeeeeeally repetitive combat, I can't remember anything except that bullets came out of guns a lot and zapping some whiny dude's house off a cliff or something)
Oh no I agree, I liked the game, but the gunplay is boring as hell
And if you consider that veiled you're not as subtle as you think :v:
[QUOTE=Skyward;45013416]People who complain about Borderlands 2's [I]"excessive"[/i] use of memes are too easily bothered by things.[/QUOTE]
I take the memes as a personal insult and think they ruin the game even though I've never played the game because I think Borderlands is boring and grindy. (Before anyone flips out the first part was a joke.)
Having any kind of shooters (FPSes especially) exclusive to the console is a silly, silly thing to do because shooters are gimped right off the bat because thumbsticks are just inherently less precise than mice.

I agree, though I think the reason why Destiny isn't on PC is that Activision isn't paying Bungie to make a PC version.
There should just be an equal rights movement for both genders instead of separate men's / women's rights, which just promotes 'competition' between the two.
I know feminism is technically that by some definitions, but the name alone is implies bias and is off-putting to the average person.
(popular for a lot of people but probably really unpopular on FP)
The drinking age in the U.S. should be lowered for sure. 21 is ridiculously high.
Also most of the reason underage kids do stupid stuff when alcohol is involved is because it's treated by media and the law and parents as this mystical forbidden item so of course once younger people get it that's all they're gonna do with it. Treat it as a food item that should be consumed responsibly.
Good beer especially is delicious and I'd much rather enjoy one good one than get drunk off a case of awful beer or a bottle of cheap liquor.

At the same time, however, "equalism" sounds like a really stupid made up word. It's probably because it is.

I prefer to believe that the girl in your avatar actually has a reverse black hole under that shirt that propels two hats that say "PAD" to the viewer's perspective. If the animation were to continue, millions of hats with the word "PAD" on them would come rushing out of her chest-mounted reverse black hole, crushing everyone to death.
Oh, and there's boobs underneath that black hole too.

I just thinks it's too easy for certain sections of people to use the causes as a way to air their personal grievances, it happens on both sides and it only causes unnecessary friction.

By "air their personal grievances" I mean spout biased, judgemental bullshit.

The full GIF is slightly less exciting than that, I'm afraid.

The only MS Paint Adventure I follow is Prequel, and we only see updates for that once a month. I still think it's wicked good. However, I don't see all of the hype around Homestuck, it just doesn't look all that special to me.

Pretty sure the main reason it's 21 is because the legal driving age in America ranges between 16 and 18, depending on what state you're in. Would you rather have kids be able to start driving legally and drinking legally at the same age?
Age of Empires 3 was better than Age of Empires 2.

Honestly yeah. Drunk driving is still illegal, and teenagers don't seem to have problems finding alcohol. I've known a few people who've gotten into drunk driving accidents as teens and from the experiences of my acquaintances a lot of that would be solved by being able to call up mom and dad and say "i'm too drunk to get home" instead of having to get home so you don't get busted for being at a party with alcohol.
Plus it's a cultural thing. There's sort of a cult of personality around alcohol that makes it a forbidden fruit and if it was legal and introduced as a foodstuff first that could go away.

Plus at least in england driving age is 17 and drinking age is between 16 and 18 depending on the drink

If they learned to do it responsibly then why not

plus, like noshogun said, it's not like they don't already do it

In an ideal society where nobody ever broke the law, it could work. We just don't live in that kind of world.
We don't need an Age of Empires 4
I want legalization and decriminalization of a large host of drugs.
However, if I become a parent, if that shit ends up in my house (legal or not), the kid's getting punished to shitsville and back.

That argument only reinforces his point though, since teenagers already break the law. However, lowering the drinking age would have a big effect on american drinking culture. Glorifying alcohol and making it be seen as something special that you're only allowed to purchase years after you're old enough to drive, smoke and serve in the military only makes teenagers want it more

I like getting drunk

Exactly.
I remember in high school whenever we got our hands on alcohol we knew we had to go somewhere hidden away from our parents and that A) we had to get drunk, because it was illegal for us to have it because of that reason so obviously that was what it was for and B) if something bad happened we couldn't call our parents or the police because we'd get wrecked.
I don't understand the mindset that cats should be allowed to roam freely outside. It's devastating to wildlife and the cat himself could end up killed or injured. If the animal isn't neutered or spayed, you end up with a bloom of more cats.
Dogs aren't allowed to roam freely outside and they do just fine.

Don't Chavs kinda prove that theory wrong? It just means easier access and getting shitfaced in public because you won't get in trouble for it.
