I've been getting into a lot of little-known bands and indie artists in general.  Sometimes I feel a bit like a hipster because of it ...  I think one of my favorite discoveries is The 1975.  I imagine my angsty teen years would've been a lot easier to get through with their music around, haha...

It reminds me of the setup that guy from the movie Grandma's Boy had.  All you need is an equally ridiculous looking room to match. It looks kind of over the top, and I'm not sure I'd buy it even if I had the money for it.  I'm just going to agree that it looks like a weird dentist's chair.  I...

There are a lot less rice balls jelly doughnuts, I tell you what. I stopped watching after the Johto season.  I guess I decided I was too grown up for the series at that point (I still played the games though, go figure). The eyes in the new style kind of wig me out, but the quality looks very...

I agree with this.  Education is a worthwhile investment that society, as a whole, should contribute to.  There are countries with similar policies in place that let students essentially get their higher education for free or highly reduced costs. I think it's Germany that has a system in place...

I kill insects all the time, though I suppose that's a much different thing than killing a person.  I would definitely be able to if my life was in danger; my survival instincts aren't that weak. One question we should be asking is if anyone here would kill for a hefty sum of money.

Earthbound gets all the love.  The other two games in the series were pretty awesome, too. I'm ... thirding(?) the DKC2 recs, because it really is a great and fun game.  Otherwise, everyone's already mentioned games I was going to.

Pff, I was an emancipated minor and they made me sign my own slip to go off campus back in high school.  I was signing all my permission slips for anything by the age of 15.  They are ridiculous but they kind of let the school off on accountability if anything was to happen. What kid rolls off...

There may be cameras in stores, but they have their blind spots.  Just because a camera has a dome over it doesn't mean it has rotating capabilities. If you're an intuitive type, you can find unsecured camera feeds just with a quick search using the proper key terms.  You'd be amazed the number...

Who thinks drinking an entire bottle of soy sauce is a good idea?!  Yeesh. I can almost picture the expression on his face ... The woman had probably completely stopped struggling at that point.  She probably fought back fiercely and just ran out of energy to keep putting up any effort, and by...

My life would be more fitting for a soap opera, really.  Affairs, people dying everywhere, drugs, drama!  Actually, it might work out as a reality show, too. I think we also need to take a moment and examine the people who go to college for ridiculous degrees.  Okay, I get that women's studies...

Oh yeah, there's no doubt a lot of what he said while running was scripted and that he heavily rehearsed answers to things he'd be asked on the spot.  Being a terrible speaker while campaigning doesn't make for the best hope of winning, after all.  I'm just surprised we elected him in again...

The most recent game to be released was La Luna Splende on the DS in Italy.  It's basically a puzzler that only bears resemblance to Sailor Moon by borrowing characters. Every official Sailor Moon game released never made it outside of Japan.  A lot of them are beat-em-ups, then you've got the...

Promise of the Rose was excellent!  Definitely my favorite movie out of all the ones that came out.  I can't deny that watching the Snow Kaguya one was fun though, if only because of Tux's ridiculous entrance in his Santa disguise. Oh, I will remind you muchly about the merch.  It's basically...

This doesn't surprise me at all.  Angry Birds is ridiculously popular.  I'm sure the quality isn't any better or worse than similar soda products; in fact, I'd put money on the flavors being pretty close to anything else that the same company produces. I can vouch that people will, indeed, fling...

I'll quit when my hands can't hold a controller anymore.  That's probably a lie.  I'll probably end up stopping the day it gets boring to me.  I'm not too sure if that will ever happen, though I know my tastes will probably shift as I age.  As it stands, I really only have time for short...
