Re: The Dating Stories/Progress thread
*rattles a tin of teddy bear biscuits in princess brothel's direction* I concur with HB about the confidence thing. If you try and offer her biscuits without being able to sit up straight, smile, and look her in the eye... she might wonder what you put in the cookies. Body language or even the tone ...

Re: The Dating Stories/Progress thread
Well, every girl (and boy) is different. Who knows, maybe the other girl cut contact because she was suddenly preoccupied with a new boyfriend. I just think playing it safe yields a good return simply because even if the lady gets snapped up by another guy, by being friendly and non-threatening/cree...

Re: The Dating Stories/Progress thread
I think your common sense is spot on. I'd recommend against the facebook play. If someone is able to do it successfully they probably have a lot of other smooth moves to back it up. More often then not the stories I hear about people trying to initiate though FB are about what creepers they are. The...

Re: All topics unimportant enough to not create a thread for
That's because America tries very hard to disgruntle their employees.
Luckily for Australian employers, they banned the guns before they REALLY started to make the workers angry. They were smart.

Re: Movies
Yeah that was pretty disappointing. They completely threw out the family drama with Rogue/Mystique/Nightcrawler, certainly one of the more interesting family relationships within the marvel universe. It might never be acknowledged since it would go against how the first movie showed both of rogue's ...

Re: Movies
I didn't, refer to: reasons above. But I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.
One thing those movies do have is special effects. Pretty decent ones.

Re: Movies
Mystique: She went after the beast too. Her whole motivation was to feel beautiful. She wanted to be attractive to men. She stuck with the professor because he was the first to accept her powers, but she wanted to feel desirable too. Then comes beast, nerdy guy with freaky feet, easy target she thin...

Re: Movies
Dead certain. It's not like the scenes in Ironman where Harold 'pop flyin'' Hogan is being rude to Black Widow and then she turns the tables on him. Mystique: Mystique's main motivation throughout the movie was getting the D. Even in the comics where they can't seem to decide what her motivations we...

Re: Movies
I'd say all of them but that's not too helpful. I guess watch the first just for the set up, the second because it's based on the mini series 'god loves, man kills' and isn't too bad. Skip the 3rd one, all it has to offer is Kelsey Grammer as Beast and there was too little of him. I'd skip all the W...

You know, I really like it when the shit Bara-chan says to be funny is completely debunked.

Re: Things that piss you off
Avatar is a good example of differences between races done right. While everyone is 'Asian', they're also all different too. Korra was not dark skinned cause, 'fuck man, that makes her look cool' She's dark skinned because she's from the southern water tribe. In the fictional world of the Avatar the...

Re: Things that piss you off
I'd say that someone drawing anybody should try to draw distinctive features. Even two Caucasians shouldn't look the same.

Re: Things that piss you off
I'm not even talking about coding, that's what my problem is with just resorting to skin colour. The problem isn't with people who chose to use different skin tones, the problem is with young artists insisting Character Z is from Country Y and not bothering to care about what that means for the char...

Re: Things that piss you off
But you're one example. I could then find 50 other people with your skin tone, but not your face and body. It's not about saying there are no black people with 'white' features. It's about 'black' not being just a colour (or any other race/nationality). It's super important for an artist to recognis...

Re: Things that piss you off
To be honest it bothers me a little too. Mostly when it's sort of arbitrary. I get that they are trying to reflect diversity but they just need to go the extra step and research. Look at the different noses, different body types and different eye shapes etc. It's like when they want to express a cha...
