I saw someone mention one of them trolley problems, and my thought went to the wisdom of Solomon: cut the trolley in half.

I know hypothetical questions don't have a right answer, but apparently they do have a wrong answer. I really got to get some sleep.


Edit: Nope. Someone mentioned a movie being sick, and wanted to ask if it was the coronavirus. I might be too stupid to function, but that's pretty good.

Anybody else get schadenfreude from seeing someone call somebody else out in a way that you're unwilling or unable to?

Home video games killed arcades, but bars still exist despite the existence of liquor stores. I thought at first it was because you don't want to be around people sober, but also arcades were full of people who were not sober.

I'm an optimist, so I get shadenfreude from everything.

Two or more drunk people can be pretty entertaining, but having others around usually only ruins video games. Not sharing your Nintendo is fun, not sharing a bottle of whiskey can be a bit depressing.

You never played Ninja Turtles, X-Men, or Simpsons arcade games? They were fun with more people. Also, fighting games and DDR-likes, if you can stand the people who play them.

Man, the whole "nerds vs. jocks" stereotype really hasn't held up. When I was in high school and talked to somebody on the football or track team, they'd be like "Wow! I don't understand math/computer science/Dwarf Fortress/whatever, but it's cool that you're excited about it!" And occasionally I'd get to share something I was passionate about with somebody that had never heard of it before.

Now that I actually have a relatively large community of gamers, geeks and nerds to interact with both off and online, I have to be careful what opinions I let slip or else I'll get a bunch of "objective" takes and screeches about badwrongfun. Sorry I don't view pop culture through a lens of morbid cynicism, if somebody doesn't like it they can kiss my fat hairy ass and have a think about what a tool they are.

I think I might be becoming a lurker. I’m not sure what to make of this.

Sometimes the lurk takes us in phases. I went from being super active (I held the #2 spot for "most posts" for a fair while, under Toady) to several years of effectively not existing on the boards.

Now I'm at a sort of middle ground. I'm content with it, for now. The lurk takes and releases us as it wills.

Here.

There’s also your personal stats here.

I feel the need now to send out a prayer to our Lord and Lurker Jifodus, I’ve always meant to, but I might as well do it now that I’m reminded of it.

I think it was pretty close. You know, for people speaking British.

I did the lurk for 3 solid years before coming back with a vengeance!
Hell I did the lurk for a year and a half before even making my first post
