They're only group-specific because specific groups choose to give them power. "Faggot" used to be a bundle of sticks until (I assume) some gay guy randomly decided to be offended by it once upon a time. I find little value in contributing to that power by making a big deal of the words.

"Curse" words are no different than any other word. The broadest definition of "profanity" is "offensive language". Language, however, is not inherently offensive. Ergo, the entire notion of profanity or 'curse words' is utter nonsense. If I call you an asshole, you perceive it to be an insult. Yet if, in my head, 'asshole' carries no insulting intent then it is not an insult. And as a matter of fact, "asshole", "faggot", and "[racism 1]" are all terms I've used regularly to describe friends (note: I've also used all of these terms negatively as well so context is key as always in language). Point is that there are no offensive words, only offensive ideas. If I decide to swap out "idiot" for "f#cking moron", the idea is exactly the same, it's just the impact that changes. But somebody who wouldn't have a problem otherwise might call me on profanity. I'd then have to call them on hypocrisy because frankly, I find their unthinking knee-jerk reaction to harmless language far more offensive than any alleged profanity. And while we're on the topic of profanity: People who say "f-bomb" or "the n word"...Or "fudge"...Or, really, any other stupid "clean" version of these words... These people need to grow up or shut up. We all know what you mean. Either man up and say it or don't say it at all, but don't be a little wuss and do it halfway. Using a euphemism doesn't make what you're saying nicer, it just makes you a coward.

Guys. Guys. GUYS. What if... And this theory gets pretty crazy but stay with me here. What if... Pinkie Pie... ...Is a cartoon character.

Considering TES is all about being some big important prophesied hero, I imagine having 27 other such heroes would rather spoil the atmosphere. Plus its very nature as an MMO means the world will not be anywhere close to par with the single-player installments for sheer immersion and epicness. I got beta access and it's all just really empty and bland outside of PVP sieges (which are pretty great). It's not worth $15 a month but then, no MMO has ever been worth a monthly fee of any kind. They were pretty dense to use a dying business model... Plus the Imperials (a basic TES race) are behind a paywall, horses are inexcusably expensive considering the sheer size of this (far too empty) land (depends on how quickly money is gathered though), and...Honestly, it's just not TES. It's any old MMO (and I do mean old MMO, as some of its mechanics do seem outdated) with a lower-quality Skyrim skin draped over it. They clearly tried...You can see various TES systems kinda clumsily melded with the online systems of the MMO genre. But...Honestly, it just made me want to play Skyrim. Plus, I only paid $60 for Skyrim and am still far from ever running out of things to see (I prefer emergent stories rather than following the Godzilla-Messiah plotline written out for me - just wander and let a whole new story emerge naturally). For $15 a month, no MMO offers enough, and certainly not enough to live up to TES standards. If I want an MMO, I'll still go for TERA because it provides a great world (visually) to play in. TESO is in Tamriel but it might as well be in Generic Fantasy Land because all of the epicness is gone. I'll grab Assassins' Creed 4 because it's the best Sid Meier's Pirates sequel ever (and unlike everyone who now hates the series due to overblown expectations, I still like it). And Infamous: Second Son because Infamous was the reason I bought a PS3 way back and Infamous 2 provided some of the most powerful, immersive, and devastating moments I've seen in a game. Plus it's just a badass IP. Also Watch Dogs because...Do I even need to explain it?

I have telekinesis. I can also play music in my head and visualize stuff but that isn't a trick so much as "literally everyone can do this thing".
