Yes. Carl's Jr. is a bit of a vice, sometimes... their Six Dollar Burgers... *drools*
I'm also partial to Chipotle. Not typical fast food... but the food
does get made fast.

Hmmm... nope, don't think so. I actually wait to eat with my mom most nights... and that's usually between 7 and 9 mountain time. So slow food? nah.

Very rarely, and only Code Red. But Game Fuel was a bit of an... addiction for me.

I have.
But I rarely wrote in it. I don't have the dedication to do so, and writing down my emotions never helps with my fiction, simply because I need to have some backstock in order to even come close to being effective or passionate. If I don't, I end up having a painting, in words, which is good... but not always what I need.

I don't have much opportunity to smell moss. The forests that I live by have much more lichen than moss, more evergreen than birch.

Oh. Try sniffing juniper berries, they smell good too.
Why do you think most fighting games have inappropriately dressed women? And do you think that fact would change if more women were on game development teams?

I think it's the culture of fighting games. It's a testosterone driven genre, so it's expected that males are the target audience. And since there's that expectation, there's an expectation that we want to see a caricatured woman instead of someone realistic, which is both more attractive and more female friendly.
I don't, however, think that would change much if more women were in game development. With more women coming in, there are some major benefits. A woman was the producer on Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed (there were other women on the team, too), and there was hardly any sexuality in that at all, if any. Women in that game were represented in a positive fashion. EA's new game, Mirror's Edge, from Battlefield developer DICE, features a realistically proportioned female lead, one who isn't dressed in skimpy attire. It seems that, really, the only games that are sticking with the whole "women must wear next to nothing" thing are developers that aim at males (Epic, Midway, Team Ninja [anything Tecmo, really], Crystal Dynamics, etc., etc.) with their games, most of which are action or fighting games. Though I think at least two volleyball games could be considered there, too.
