Meh. Did not mean for that. I was answering in kind to Zeph's turning the conversation to boys.
As mentioned before, it changes our sisters' behaviors as well. Not just our brother.

Eh, it wasn't my intention necessarily to change the subject, I was simply bringing up a point to support my previous one. I like this topic, it's one that I've held a pretty firm stance on for quite some time. Really since the fourth grade.

By the way people, I'm sorry for being so defensive over the last few days. I have been really stressed out and I guess it leaked out into my posts.

Not to worry, it happens to the best of us. Just shows your a part of the Tiny's community. *smile* Keep up the debate, peeps. I'll throw in my input from time to time.

Words escape me, but my opinion lies with Zephyr and Det. I'd rather spend hours shooting up some aliens in Halo 3 than go out and have someone turn me the wrong way and I end up sending him to the hospital. That's jail time. Violent video games are a better stress relief.

Well, sure, violent video games are a better idea than actually shooting someone. Good heavens, I would rather you do that. But still. Any video game is better than shooting someone, you know? I pound on the piano violently when I am stressed or I beat a temple in Zelda.

This is the reason Nintendo is my favorite. www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/164448.html?playlist=popularwww.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/164471.html?playlist=popularHere is the video I meant to post...they make good points. Number one has some pretty bad language. It's about trash-talking, so skip it. And I've lost a lot of respect for Jack Thompson. This guy is an idiot. Halo trained the sniper, eh? Ok...It's completly bloody unrealistic. There is no evidence, at all. Now, the points about the online 'drug-games' are backed up. Families fall apart, it's true. So DONT PLAY OFTEN. Anywho, Thompson has lost a lot of merit. Just blaming it on the game of the time. The army would not use Halo to train people, that's ridiculous. There are huge machines dedicated to that sort of thing, my grandfather built them all his life. Granted, there are games designed specifically for the army. But I don't remember there being any floodspawns in the streets...At least, I hope I didn't see that.

....What point did that physics game serve? It's cool... but... eh?
I cannot think of anything else to say except for "I agree" to the last post.

Hm. How extremely interesting. Good find, Raiku. That was pretty rediculous... some of them, anyway.
