    Word Vomit

    I've been off for a while, but have still been writing, here and there. This following piece was written after I read a news article, I believe it was on organ donation, hence the subject matter. I don't often write first-person, but for some pieces it is the only way to convey emotion...

    PokéMon is Not for Children

    I've seen trainers 'talking' to their Pokemon a lot in stories on this board (or at least, when I was around back then :P ), but it's pleasant to read of one where the communication wasn't immediate or wholly unexplained. Also, Ame is disturbingly resigned to the idea of Pokemon becoming...

    If you were of the opposite gender ...

    Periods. If men had periods they would be banned. On the plus side women have much better underwear.

    World of Warcraft

    The quests have been vastly improved in my opinion, especially so in the lower levelling zones (after the Shattering patch I went and did a couple of the Eastern Kingdoms areas for Loremaster) and are memorable for reasons other than "moar boars!" - I did enjoy travelling in Fiona's coach in the...

    Religion

    Princeton says atheism is simply not believing in dieties. Whilst yes, that tends to lead to atheists thinking of theists as being a bit... funny and that religion in and of itself is nonsense, it does not lead to all of them believing that. And you certainly don't need to be an atheist to think...

    World of Warcraft

    Tatile is level 85 and gearing for heroics at current. Xanthier's main is also 85 and, with the bonuses from Jewellcrafting and Engineering, is already in heroics. Cata dungeons are hard D: but fun, at least. Unlike the Wrath content you now have to actually think whilst you run. It's certainly...

    If you were of the opposite gender ...

    I would be totally gay (first thing that came to my mind when I saw the title) and probably pretty much the same. I think my name might've been Graham, had I been a boy >.> In fact my wardrobe would probably be worse as a guy than it is now, what with my natural perchance to skinniness - though...

    Virgil's Art

    I love your platypus Virgil :D Your goat and panda look awesome as well, but the platypus is the best.

    Religion

    Atheism is a belief system, Weeds, just agnostism and theism are, but the idea of science is that it has results which are measurable and can (theoretically) be done by just about anyone, given the right amount of time and equipment. Religion doesn't make us all flying nuns. I'm curious to...

    Quotes.

    It was actually the type of fence that was used by the first probation officer to attack them with, rather than a streetlight. "What? It's not like you're going to enter him in Crufts!" "Got a spare heart?" - forgot her name, but the new girl in the second series. Understated, yet dramatic.

    Religion

    When we did not know what made the heavens and the stars, when we did not understand the sun or the moon, when we could not fathom death or the end of things, we gave ourselves a way to deal with reality. This method was religion and it has lasted for many thousands of years in one guise or...

    Holiday Songs and Traditions

    We (England/Britain) complain about the weather, panic buy at the first sign of snow and whinge about the transport. Personally my family doesn't have many Christmas traditions. We pass out presents, eat, maybe chat about the weather...

    Angel's Pokemon Life

    I'm sorry to say that I didn't finish reading what you posted; all of the questions that came up are exatcly mirrored by Sem and Sir Red. Except, perhaps, one: who names their son 'NO.'? Where is the logic there?

    Films you think deserve a sequel/sequels

    I'll be honest, Painful, the iPad touch technology isn't all that far from what we can expect of reboot-Trek-tech: it's the basis of one of our most intuitive movements. Touch tech is very much alive and well in the Star Trek universe and I think they'd be far more fascinated by seeing the...

    The Post Your Thoughts of the Moment Thread

    I hate parents. I hate them so much. A Brave New World is not an evil book - it is not a book that should be banned, nor politely removed from the class merely because you have a problem with the idea that the author would use the word "savage" in the way that he did. Simply because you are of...

    Writing challenge

    Stale must drifted in through the doorway. Lazy Sundays are nothing days, where the world slips slowly by, existing as it would. The plants on the window sill had long since started to die, the last holding on through remorse. Another pill slid slowly down his throat. Melancholy sat heavily...

    Desert Discovery

    Though well written, I can't say that was scary. Perhaps you should take a leaf from the Nerconomicon, and avoiding describing your creatures? They become far more menacing when you can't see them :) Although for a first attempt at horror for someone who does scary, it's not all too bad. To be...

    It flipped, turning out in the air as a great, doughy angel. She caught it with fists up right, careful not to piece the fine craftsmanship. Again it flew into the air, higher than before, calling out to the ceiling above. The circle landed for the last time, its form now finished. A thing of...

    Writing challenge

    And I need... need... There's a terrible thing my friends are doing to me. I call them friends, they're not, they just sit there and laugh at me behind their hideous mask faces, looking and watching and waiting. Singing, all the time, about what they love and what they like, what they want. I...

    The Post Your Thoughts of the Moment Thread

    Don't be silly, everything you involve yourself in dies a death. Best just to stay on the sidelines - let other people have their fun, you just spoil it. What? No? Didn't you listen?
