I didn't say I liked it. :wink:

It's just not off putting because... well, I pretty much accept anything in media these days. To shun one thing like sexual content and accept another like murder (like GTA or something like that, which I play) in a game makes me look like a hypocrite. (I realize some things bother people more than others, but that's not what I'm talking about here)

I don't like being like that, soooo. Yeah. I'm not usually off put by anything in a game/movie/TV show... I just tolerate it... but that also doesn't mean I like it. (not saying you said I liked it, but still... just clarifying)

Aaaaaaand. Doesn't sound too bad... but we shall see. :o
Yeah... I realized that I made it sound like you said you liked it. Sorry about that. :wink:

I see what you're saying.

The reason it bothers me more than violence (which really doesn't bother me at all, unless it's violence against children. I hate that. And women. Unless they are horribly evil.), is because that the sexual content is supposed to be private. That's Biblical. Violence is also Biblical. And necessary at times. Language is not really forbidden (except taking the Lord's name in vain), and makes sense in a lot of situations.

I just always think that sexual content/nudity detracts from movies and games (and books). Plus, like I said, it is supposed to be private.

Make sense?

No prob.

And yep, I totally get what you're saying. This is something that... varies greatly among believers (and non-believers, but I find myself having these kinds of talks more frequently with the latter). What's worse: sex/nudity, swearing, killing, etc.

Again though... it really comes down to personal thresholds that each individual has set for himself/herself. You know?

Also, I really really want Dragon Age. Like. With 40% of my heart. And for a game, that's a lot of percentage. :shock:

Yeah. I hadn't thought of having two cages. XD I'ma keep that part to myself for a bit...no use making my parents go "OH SCHNAP" yet. :D

Plus, this way, I can get everything I need for my snake, and have money left over. I would've been fine either way, but this works out in case I need to get extras stuff, or something else for Christmas.

Dead space?

Yeah, I guess. I personally am much more averse to sexual content than I am to violence and language. Hm...

I want it with 56%. What now? :mrgreen:

Aye, sounds like a great plan. ^_~

Also, Chozon... go with the small hide. Seriously. I looked at them a day or two ago at the pet store, and now that I actually know what a "small" hide is... yeah. Get it, not medium. The snake won't use the medium if he's an '09, it's waaaaaaaaaay too big. Small looked good though, and it'll last you a good six months I'd say.

Just... advice from a dude who knows this. XD

And Dead Space. Maaaaaaan. I love that game so much. So creepy at night.

It's the sound effects man, the sound. :shock:

And.

Um.

The 40% that I want it with is of my gaming heart. The other 60% of my gaming heart is for Final Fantasy XIII. And that will likely become 100%. Soooo. Um.

It just did.

Hmm...well, my parents ordered the stuff. ^_^ Got small and a medium in the hides. Should be here in 2-4 days. :D I'm pretty hyped. Maybe snake next Monday...

Seriously though, that cost much MUCH less than I though...Thanks for showing me that site. Saved me a ton. Even including the thermostat. You rock. \m/> >_< .\m/ Downing the size helped a lot too. I was able to order a screen cover from that site for a 10G, that cost much less than a store... All told, you saved me around $70-50

You rock hard?

ohno told me that Korn has no redeeming value and that their music sucks and the lyrics make him want to kill a turtle.

Is that just him being biased against metal again, or is there something wrong with him?
