An interesting artical that I came across this morning
http://gr.bolt.com/articles/violence/violence.htm

It is a gift, a gift to the foes of media falsehoods. Give gamers the weapon of the enemy, let us use it against them!
(Magical brownies for identifying the movie I paraphrased that from ;) )

It's Fellowship, now gimme my brownies. And they better be your mum's brownies. Or caramel squares. I'd go to war for her caramel squares xD

An excellent find, my friend.

*Gives unto Raiyven the boon of Magical Brownies, that they may be a meal for him in dark places, when all other meals are eaten*

You need to be more specific to get *real* brownies. Or caramel squares. But too late, the last ship for the un-hungering lands has sailed, good-bye ;)

On topic, I'm thinking of pulling a copy of the artical on to my hard drive, in case it gets pulled off the web.

*cough* "article" *cough*


SiFi: One bite of these brownies can fill a grown man's stomach!
Gryphon: (aside to Raiyven): How many did you eat?
Raiyven: erm.. ...four... <BELCH>

lol to both counts. i have four stomachs, didnt you know? appetizers, dinner, dessert, and meat. :)

Sadly, the popular magazine 'The Economist' has a full front page of a kid playing with a console, with an eeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil look on his face, and the title is something akin to 'are video games making our kids evil?'. No. :p

We all play games, and we're not evil. Well. most of us. We all have our plots of domination. And if you think they're easy to execute, take a lesson from one Scratch Fury, genius cat: http://www.pvponline.com/archive.php3?archive=20050810

Nobody tosses a THZ!

Fine, not so much "artical" as personal essay :P

Are you equating me to legolas, gambit? Cause as a Gimli son of Gloin fan, I have to say that I'm insulted ;)

Hey, they became bestest buddies, didn't they? ;)

I just gave you the line becase you were the one handing out the brownies.

Well, yeah, but legolas tried to steal one of Gimli's kills ;)

That was in the *film*. Ignore it. Never happened :D

A real elf would know better than to steal a kill off a Dwarf.
