Judith Butler has written tons about this. She's pretty hard to read at times, but it's definitely right on the mark for this. This thread kind of sounds like an epilogue to a feminist theory. Some people use the word "feminist" as an insult (I'm not one of them, on the contrary), regardless...

Not going to get to the part where people in general are shit, because it's been covered. It's true though, people hate what's different. Some things though: The clothes outlets and fashion in general, like to push certain ideas that are masqueraded in some beauty ideal that doesn't really...

I'd say greed, and that it compasses fear and instinct aswell. Perhaps there are various layers of greed, some being institutional and some being innate, and greed in the sense that everyone must conform towards something you think is favourable for some other entity (greed-by-proxy I guess)...

Sports are always thought of as universally fair, and despite nationalities and race and religion it's all happyhappyjoyjoy once in 4 years. Funny thing is, the olympics and all other major sport organizations are extremely corrupt, and while I'm not exactly in love with Iran or their views on...

One interesting thing to also consider about probabilities is that they're mostly made by people who cannot estimate anything that they're supposed to hypothetize probabilities from. There doesn't seem to be anything indicating that life COULDN'T exist if some, or all variables are different...

"If religion didn't exist, it doesn't mean we wouldn't have art or entertainment, or events that are fun and bring people together. Sure they'd be different, but they'd still exist." -Says you. Look at the world prior to religion. lol why don't you describe this to us, then?

Similarly, if you get Quezacotl's card, and after that the card mod ability, getting them first and foremost, you can play a bit of cards in the garden before you even embark anywhere else, and get Tornado (I think from the Abyss Worm card, not sure), which is also insanely powerful to junction...

One thing to consider though is, that with the lvl3 limits that have potential (ungarmax, doom of the living) you reach the limits quicker. Perhaps not a huge advantage, but everything counts. Besides, when you have enough base to punch up 9999's in limits, I'm guessing even the lvl3 limits...

It's the barkeeper's fault for the most part. Alcohol is a substance people might find hard to control the intake for, and the barkeeper is specifically designated among other things, to serve people deadly amounts of alcohol. Certainly the dead guy is to blame aswell, but it's part of the...

The problem with these pro/con legalization discussions is most people are just flat out wrong, regardless of the stance they take. Some of them are just a tad incorrect, but some of them are just flat out wrong and people shouldn't be posting and spreading such tripe. First of all, while I...

Personally, I leave Vincent in the basement (I think I said this before somewhere too, but repetition is the grandmother of everything good). I know how to get him, but he can stay there for all eternity :) I think one problem with FFVII that I have was, that besides the limit breaks the...

Perhaps. My point wasn't really to speculate with suggestions on what gas should cost, but rather that while some people consider the "free market value"(*) as high is merely a fraction of what some people pay for it, considering the bulk of the price here is tax upon tax upon tax. Not whining...

I'd almost be willing to wager money, that the Final Fantasy most people pick as their favorite is with a high probability, the first one they ever played. :) This is something (along with "what is the best FF ever") that I've given thought towards before. I guess it'd be a random guesswork...

You're absolutely right, the games weren't released in europe before VII. Pretty much unplayable in europe, unless one is willing to mod the old NES or SNES hardware, that is. Or own american/japanese made consoles with a TV that can function with them (not sure how the old hardware works as I...

The problem with MMORPG's is, they're probably such a cascow it'd be foolish ***not*** to make them. I hate the concept, and I think those games are time and money sucking succubii, designed to pretty much suck the soul out of you. I refuse to play any of them, be it a FF title or anything else...

Poverty, and gas prices (heh), are pretty relative things. I've always thought the gas price thing is amusing (and I don't mean this in an insultive way, but rather in an odd hilarious kind of way). I'm not sure what the current running price of gas is here because I like to walk everywhere, but...

Some people are aggravated by various things. Being insultive towards someone without true malicious intent is very common, towards both theists and atheists (and every cute little denomination, cult, sect and philosophy you can fit in between the two). But ...I'm sure one beautiful sunday...

Also, one thing that I really didn't thought of when I played: When you start playing hot&cold and look at the instructions, the instructions only point that square is used for digging and the directional buttons are ...uh, well for directions. You can run with the button you've designated...

Yeah, when you dig all that you can get at the current time, the moogle will tell you there's no more to be found at this time. That's when you switch places...

I read somewhere that keeping one party member at the range of a lvl5 attack to be pretty useful. I guess the logic would be that you keep a non-healer at that range. If anyone in the party is susceptible to lvl5 death, Ozma will cast it. Seems like a good choice though? Sure enough, you have...
