Something about Trixie taking over Ponyville I think.

Completely agree 100%.

Not enough engaging threads like we used to have.

Cartoons must have logic too. Everything has logic. Even Pinkie Pie. And she's extremely random.

Well, for The Portal series, it would very different if Chell could talk and retaliate to GLaDOS's insults. VERY DIFFERENT.

I don't really have a problem with silent protagonists, in fact, some of my favorite characters are silent. With Chell in Portal and Gordan in Half Life being mute, it adds a little thing of uniqueness, characters in the game actually note that, which makes the unique as they're very rare as a mute person.

Also, you talked about how some people give the reason for characters being mute so you can feel like you are the character. This strategy can work and does pretty well so in Halo where the protagonist is barely says anything at all, what makes it work though is that he never takes off his helmet.

How could the unconcious inanimate matter of the universe possibly come together to create life without some kind of desire to do so?

Luck.

Need one more to proceed with the next mission.

Done.

First name and last name for soldier. Doesn't need to be your actual name.

It sounded good for the first part...until I forgot I was supposed to be writing like i was Duncan.

I'm not talking about the shooter.

During my 6 month break, I took little excursions to take a look at the forums. That's when we talked.

 

The Gifted Program is a national thing in all of Canada. It feels like being a test subject at times. My grade two teacher (who developed a personal vendetta against me because of it, by the way) saw that I exhibited some of the "symptoms" of a gifted child and had me tested. I tested positive, and my parents received a huge letter in the mail explaining to the letter what challenges anyone dealing with me - themselves included - would face. "Symptoms" like asking too many questions, defying orders, and challenging superiors.

 

On the upside, it did allow me to skip five years ahead in a subject no questions asked. I will never forget the look on my seventh-grade teacher's face when I strolled into class two hours late, my excuse being that I had to take the German 12 provincial exam that morning. The score came back a gleaming 100% several weeks later.

 

It's almost disturbing how unusual people can perceive you to be for having a proficiency that doesn't correspond with your biological age.

 

Then again, if my classmates' English essays I marked for my English 11 teacher last year were any indication of the academic proficiency of the average person my age... my case probably is unusual enough to warrant being slotted into the Gifted Program.

Oh, so it's country wide...Good to know.

I always have Skyrim....And I can also arrange tires to act like grunts in Halo...

and shoot them...Fun!

Only one....

Only have 3 who could all come at the same time. And none of them are that type of person. I'm the only really geeky person in my group.

Dayum. I've never even experienced D&D, what a wonderful experience it must be.

You were playing D&D for 7 hours? Wow.

Economy can't pay for everyone to go to it.

That's why in Alberta we have something called the "Gifted Program". It lets students who are have higher skill then their grade practice skill from higher up grades. 10X better than normal school.

CURSE YOU TYPOS, CURSE YOU!

I dunno lol.
