We know each other's answers and neither of us really care. Then again I've been more curious about past flings than I suppose a lot of people are? I just don't get being insecure about that kind of stuff?

Why are you so curious about it though? We could interpret that as a sign of insecurity as well, no?

[Shadow Mod]

I'm curious because it's a part of his life before I showed up. Plus knowing what other girls did that he liked, I can try to do that too and better?

[Steve Contra]

Pegging.  Got it.

[Rufus]

I didn't actually expect an answer, but yeah, that sounds reasonable.

[brob]

As with anything skill based, more experience is always preferable. Can a woman be too overqualified to work this dick? I don't know, but I'd love to find out.

[Van Cruncheon]

nothing wrong with being curious about your partner's past. why wouldn't you want to know about it, as it is an interesting part of their history? the problem is when you're judgmental and freak out because OMG FREQUENT SEX I NEVER GOT

[Shadow Mod]

readleader sure is dumb

it's like he's never heard of people cheating, ever

[Van Cruncheon]

that alpha/beta thread could NOT sound more pathetic poser 16-year-old male even if it carved a hole in and microwaved itself

[Van Cruncheon]

oh god, I take it back, that PROMISCUOUS WOMEN ARE DEGENERATE SLUTS thread is in fact far worse.

gaf needs to extinguish off-topic, gamers can't talk about anything that isn't games hardware sales or mascot canon in a credible way

[Van Cruncheon]

who's up for a suicide pact

[Shadow Mod]

I like this dude who thinks that someone in a string of god awful relationships is somehow more suited for a relationship than the person who was just honest with him/herself and fucked casually for a while. lol.

Fuckin socially maladjusted idiots.

Best posts are the ones that are all like "leave me alone though I feel the same way about men." So much jealousy about getting that poon.

[Van Cruncheon]

you need to peg ALL* of them. it is your DESTINY. get to it.





* you don't hafta peg the fatties.

I'm not suggesting that there is (although there very well could be), just trying to challenge Cowbell on her assumptions a bit.
The examples from the thread are telling, though.

That means good shit is about to happen doe.

Post in the sex thread before you get that hammer dude.

i can't handle the sex thread. it transcends mere bile. my body has yet to marshal a form of effluvium toxic enough to hork into that rhetorical toilet.

[Van Cruncheon]

also i'd hafta read more than a page of it

[Shadow Mod]

Based on these stats I found on this website, I can't date you because you were raped and uh the probability of us getting divorced it a might high.

I don't give a fuck about alpha/beta nonsense but Squiddy calling himself an alpha made me laugh my ass off. I don't think alphas are weird swedish fucks who wear eye makeup and take it up the asshole.

[Van Cruncheon]

he's just playin' the odds that trab or whatever that dull german twatfrau's name is will read it and go "wait, he's an alpha? here's my clit, get to hangin', you savage emo beast!" simp's gotta play ALL the angles.

squiddy is my natural internets enemy, unfortunately. greasy little appeaser.

[Van Cruncheon]

alpha and beta are garbage evo psych terms, which idiotically and counterintuitively supposes that ALL SOCIAL CONTEXTS ARE EQUAL -- which is the sort of idiot, counterintuitive thing that makes spergs' little nublets stiffen. when reality won't favor your fatuous narcissism, DISINGENUOUSLY PARAMETERIZE REALITY AND BLEAT FOR PUBLIC SUPPORT

[Broseidon]

whats the deal with this dog-butt lickin?

i made that up as a stealth derailer

Here come the "people who fuck a lot are mentally and or morally deficient" posts.

Should be a good one unless they lock it.

I have a good friend who's been with a lot of guys.  Like a mindboggling amount.  Great girl, just likes to fuck. buts she's gotten some serious shit about it before from both guys and girls.

I'm just curious how that comes up? No polite person would ever ask someone what their number was (even if they are dating imo). Does she just throw it out there to mess with people?

The study makes no remarks about sexual abuse. What the women were asked was "'whether they 'really wanted,' 'had mixed feelings about,' or 'really didn’t want' their first vaginal intercourse to happen at the time." The study also notes that "had mixed feelings" was ambiguous and that the answer to that question

they seek out other spergs to create consensual realities based on simpler social rules, like "the guy in the fox suit gets his dick sucked first" and "x is married to loli-chan and y is married to sonic-kun" or "we are all sexy dragons"

I read some article about a bot some assholes "programmed to love" and it was just this huge clunky thing. Apparently it kept an intern hostage for a while too. I said to myself, make it smaller, give it tits and a wig, and I'll get you the market.

Personally speaking killing some people in a game is usually set up to where those people deserved it except for the games where you can choose to be awful but killing is a means to an end. Raping someone and or torturing them really isn't. So I can see why it'd be an issue.

Those are two things I just really do not need in my games.

Oh you mean that discussion can't even be had because people are just shit posting, yeah welcome to discussing games and stuff in games.

Also there is a definite issue I have with rape being an action someone can take vs the subject being brought up.

[Shaka Khan]

I personally consider rape worse than murder based on some rational —and also irrational— reasons. I don't want it in my games, suggested or explicit, optional mandatory.

The reason why I hate having this discussion in the first place is because it only shows how much our consumption of entertainment media has desensitized us to violence and murder. We've on from typical exposure to the point of glorification and even romanticizing.

So yeah, I can't have this discussion without self-reflecting a little bit and feeling like a hypocrite.

[Shadow Mod]

Beta shaming is a thing?

People think I'm being completely serious right now with the alpha posturing.

Pissing off communities of people is personally hilarious to me. 

[Rufus]

They talk a bit about violence in the most recent Idlethumbs podcast. Specifically how it escalated in Splinter Cell and how weird it is that torture always produces reliable results in that series. Kirk Hamilton (one of the few good people at Kotaku) guests on this one and relates how he's almost managed to get that across to one of the developers in an interview, but then the guy he interviewed started talking about how unreliable torture would necessitate a branching narrative, etc. The Idlethumbs people correctly note that you would actually only need a mission where the info you've acted on turns out to be crap.

One of the developers also left the company over a scene (which was later cut) where Sam Fisher stabs someone in or near the collarbone and the player gets to twist the knife to prod the person for more info.

It's weird. Everybody highlighted the first Hotline Miami for the violence, but it didn't really register to me as unusual. Plenty of high-profile games are just as bloody and fucked up in a lot of ways. Not in as frantic a pace, but they meet the death toll numbers. And when they don't they make up for it with higher fidelity.

[Your Stalker]

it's pretty much the only reason to use forums imo

[Momo]

You people are fucking distinguished mentally-challenged if you do not realize Hotline Miami put rape in there because murder wasn't upsetting people.  The point is to get upset. The point is to make you hate the avatar you play as. The point is to make you question why you play games like this.

I dunno I find killing in games so cartoony and ridiculous that it never really registers with me. Actively making someone suffer is something else entirely.

[Rufus]

Knowing that it's in there seems to accomplish the same thing. Not sure if that's their intention then, but I guess Cactus and whoever else the other developer is would probably think that's cool.

You've been desensitized to violence/murder, hey we all have.  They are using something that upsets us still to highlight that we shouldn't be okay with it, or at least ask questions, as some people are now. The "get that rape outta here" crowd is asking all the wrong questions. I'm glad that this scene did at least get more people to realize what HM was/is about.

No I find other media depictions of murder pretty damn terrible. Gaming just doesn't hit at anything with me.

[Van Cruncheon]

i liken rape to violence wherein you single out a single class or race of person to become a victim for deeply personal violence, like if you had to lynch a black person in a game, or torture a gay person.

if rape in the game was indiscriminate -- where you had your dick out and you kept sticking it into generally ungendered folks clad in swat attire or gangland gear -- i'd consider it creepy but inane, the way i view killin' mass  generic folks in other games.

Until now.


I think gaming depictions of murder needs to bother people at least a bit, at the least think about it. It's by far more powerful in gaming that film because active participant vs voyeur.  A lot of people remove/separate themselves from their active complicit behavior in the act of killing 100 dudes in videogames, I don't think this is healthy and one should at least question one self here. 

[Shadow Mod]

Until now.

But it doesn't get me to think anything about killing hordes of people in games. It just makes me think it's more trite shit to up the ante.

You already pinpointed the exact difference earlier though. The people you usually kill somehow deserve it, they're the bad guys so whatever, shoot 'em before they get you. We accept that without much protest. You eliminate an obstacle and that's that.
However, given the option I don't think many people would forcibly sodomize the bad guy before they snap his neck. That adds sadism to the equation and I don't think many people would enjoy playing as that guy, even in games where you have the choice to be "evil" and kill a bunch of innocent people, like in Fallout. And on that note, killable children is another line that doesn't need crossing. I don't get why some people need to have that in there and mod it in.

[Momo]

Until now.

I just dunno what to say then, the message failed to reach you     I hope another game comes along that will get you to think about it, maybe spec-ops the line or something.

Or I've never felt like games really challenged me to think about what I'm doing to another person. I've been told Last of Us actually does this so...
