[QUOTE=Zenpod;45292919]Honestly, I think most of fp is filled with pasty white boy sexist little nerds who are so unlikely to succeed in life because they refuse to just grow the fuck up and take some initiative with their lives. Putting it off like being introverted is a good thing and putting it off that it's okay to not grow emotionally. Just so many people here just need to chill the fuck out, look at their life for a few days and then fix it for the better, get a job or get a better one than the current, work on fixing their flaws and stop acting like just a god damn entitled child all the time.
tldr: get a job you fucking nerd[/QUOTE]
Don't forget islamaphobic and slightly racist!
I say racist, sexist, offensive, politicaly incorrect things all the time In real life, but only when they'd probably be laughed at.
And that's totally Ok.
Not sexist.
Not racist.
To force myself to be politicaly correct in this country would be wrong.
Also, only weak people are offended by the things i say.
Being 'offended' by humour is offensive.

The forecasters in Phoenix use it quite often, I don't know whether or not the other Southwestern states use it. The first time I heard it being used was in 2011's Monsoon Season.

what about "labeling unfunny, offensive stuff as humor just to get away with it is offensive"?
Piercing and tattoos are pointless and a waste of money.
I find the Fourth of July to be annoying as hell. Especially with idiot neighbors such as mine who will combine large amounts of fireworks and set them off making it sound like someone set off a freaking bomb nearby and startling the crap out of everyone in the neighborhood.
Rolf Harris is a horrible human being and did utterly wrong acts which I fully believe he deserves to serve gaol time for. But he was found guilty of indecent assault, not sexual assault, and while they may both be sex-related crimes the media should use the proper term. Noone deserves to be media-guilty of a crime they haven't even been indicted on, especially something as severe as sexual assault.

In Australia fireworks are far less common, but the one time our neighbours decided to start setting off fireworks (first and only time seeing large shells fired illegally - usually it's just small firecrackers or something people buy and aren't quite as large kaboom dangerous), scared the shit out of everyones pets, made the area smell like shit, almost set our god damn tree on fire because they don't know how to aim and then, I kid you not, got their children to walk over (this is all in a small back yard) and light them with a little lighter.

I live on the border of another state which has far more lax laws on fireworks so we have to deal a lot with people going there and buying fireworks that are illegal here then bringing them back. Though as has been the case today it's not simply illegal fireworks but custom ones which are even more illegal. Unless I'm remembering wrong that's a felony here but there's still tons of incidents with it every year because the police force gets stretched really thin with all the illegal fireworks reports so they almost never actually catch anyone.
I think people are taking XCOM: The Bureau too hard.
I don't like it when forum members tell people who just joined to do things that will get them banned.
Some of the more bizarre stuff that will get you banned isn't that obvious(eg: that cat).

I just don't see the purpose of cutting your skin to slide in a piece of metal, or dying your skin to a different color in a section. It just seems worthless to me.

As has been said over and over and over and over and over and over, this thread isn't just for posting opinions and never being opposed on them. If you post something and post no explanation then there is no issue whatsoever with people asking for your logic on the matter.
I thought the X-com FPS that was being made that got turned into The Bureau looked really, really good.

then what about all the other cosmetic things people do to themselves? their hair, or jewelry, or even good clothes? if you want to argue that tattoos don't have a practical purpose, then that's fair enough, but again that goes for almost every cosmetic modification people make to themselves.

Well tbh tattoos and piercings are pretty different compared to hair and clothes. I think swog is saying that you can generally look good without piercings and tattoos so they're pointless in his opinion.

You're fine with earrings but they're the same as piercings, you again do the "I don't see the appeal of..." proving you're an ignorant person by not even reading the post I made. Tattoos and piercings, as same goes for clothing and jewelry are for the person's own personal comfort and style, it's not for you, a tattoo is for the person's intent, the significance of the tattoo is for them and them only and not for you to judge whether or not that person should've gotten or not a tattoo of their daugther's name or a more artistic tattoo with a deeper meaning to it, people value these things because they aren't idiots with keyboards on the internet with nothing to live for, it's not a dye on your skin.

They won't like the game but that doesn't mean it's bad. Why do thing have to be either a film with no interaction or a full game with engaging gameplay? Can't there be anything in between?
I'm not defending Gone Home in particular (I haven't played it) but there's nothing inherently wrong with "walking simulators" and other slightly interactive story-focused experiences.

I hate some of their beliefs but I don't hate THEM as people.
Plenty of decent muslims/people of most religions, I just dislike some of their beliefs(mostly their anti-gay beliefs which is in most religions)
I think more people should look at tatoos and judge them based on how they look, rather than the fact that they're tatoos. When someone says "I hate tatoos" I realy think they aught to be more specific. Sleeves can be both awful and great. Small tatoos can look worse than large tatoos. Slag tags suggest bad things but can be pretty artsy. I for one find barb wire, guns, roses, American gang signs and skulls to mostly be pretty shitty and far too common, but a lot of other stuff, particularly colourful things like the dragonbal manga sleeve that someone has at the local CEX or the neck salamander on the chef in the nearest pub to my house are pretty great.
