    I just thought it was cute you predicated your opinion of her looks like that.

    like, HBO is basically asking you to objectify her. meta commentary and all.

    just go watch the ep!

    So there are some personality traits of mine that I don't know whether to ascribe to my extremely conservative Pakistani Muslim upbringing, or to quirks of my own...

    But my attitudes (or non-attitudes, really) toward women are one of those things.

    G'evening [chat]!

    I need to watch TWO Game of Thrones episodes now. This past week went by reallllly fast.

    Also, LEAFS WON HOLY F-BALLS THIS IS AMAZING TIME FOR GAME SEVEN BABAY

    Further, regarding gifs not being amazing:

    Finally,

    @Ravenhpltc24

    So I'm closing tonight at work. My timid little dishwasher (our youngest, I think he's 17), who usually doesn't say much, asks me at the end of the night if he can put some music on while we clean up, and if I care what kind of music it is.

    I say of course, go right ahead.

    This is the first song that comes on:

    The Oculus Rift completely supplants your sense of sight in a believable manner. It is Snow Crash shit. Real virtual reality.

    i don't see how that will actually change anything about games.

    21st you are killing me

    I can't believe me yelling VIRTUAL REALITY isn't enough. It's virtual reality! Doesn't every nerd grow up having wet dreams about interacting with immersive game worlds that blur the lines between game and real life.

    Do you like Skyrim? I love Skyrim. I loved exploring Skyrim. It was an incredibly immersive game. If I could experience Skyrim as though I were actually there that would be great for me. I wouldn't feel cold, or smell the food or people, but as far as my sense of sight was concerned I wouldn't be looking at a screen, I'd be looking at an actual world.

    Yeah, virtual reality is a fun little dream, but it's not gonna be real until you have full-body force feedback.

    I would do this, but I would make the most muscle-y, frat boys kiss in special sections of the Man Zoo.

    yeaaah, that's cool.

    This is all just reminding me of how much I loved it when John Hamm was like, "It's making me uncomfortable all the scrutiny I am getting for my dong even though it's supposed to be a compliment, it's like, this is my body, stop commenting on it"

    And I was like

    I am overselling it to counteract your unreal pessimism or apathy but I think it's going to be really cool. Whenever I watch people using it and see how they react I get excited. Supplanting one's sense of sight appears to make a big difference.

    i didn't say that.

    Alright, fuck it, you're right. The occulus rift is the greatest invention ever and without it, playing video games is like punching yourself in the face repeatedly. All hail the occulus rift.

    My point is that there is room for improvement. You said you're already immersed, as if it were a binary state between immersion and non-immersion. I just can't understand how a device and a pair of good headphones that trick two of your senses into thinking you're not in a chair sitting in front of a computer isn't better than looking at a computer screen.

    The Oculus Rift completely supplants your sense of sight in a believable manner. It is Snow Crash shit. Real virtual reality.

    i don't see how that will actually change anything about games.

    21st you are killing me

    I can't believe me yelling VIRTUAL REALITY isn't enough. It's virtual reality! Doesn't every nerd grow up having wet dreams about interacting with immersive game worlds that blur the lines between game and real life.

    Do you like Skyrim? I love Skyrim. I loved exploring Skyrim. It was an incredibly immersive game. If I could experience Skyrim as though I were actually there that would be great for me. I wouldn't feel cold, or smell the food or people, but as far as my sense of sight was concerned I wouldn't be looking at a screen, I'd be looking at an actual world.

    Yeah, virtual reality is a fun little dream, but it's not gonna be real until you have full-body force feedback.

    It doesn't have to be 100% real to be engaging and convincing. Unless you can't drop your guard or suspend your disbelief at all.

    Look, i don't need to have a virtual reality helmet on to be immersed. it's a nice idea and i guess you want one, but i don't really think it'll improve games that much.

    So do you already think you're in another world while playing a game like Skyrim? You think you're as immersed as it's possible to be?

    i didn't say that.

    Alright, fuck it, you're right. The occulus rift is the greatest invention ever and without it, playing video games is like punching yourself in the face repeatedly. All hail the occulus rift.

    they do not)

    And the weird thing is, I wouldn't even want that on top of me. I just like looking at it.

    When you earn your billions and retire, perhaps your philanthropic gift to the world could be a Man Zoo. Men with chiseled abs in cages flexing and posing for the visitors all day long.

    I would do this, but I would make the most muscle-y, frat boys kiss in special sections of the Man Zoo.

    yeaaah, that's cool.

    This is all just reminding me of how much I loved it when John Hamm was like, "It's making me uncomfortable all the scrutiny I am getting for my dong even though it's supposed to be a compliment, it's like, this is my body, stop commenting on it"

    And I was like

    bro...bro is starting to get it

    Oh, responded to the response that was made to those pictures where we could CLEARLY see he has a long dick?

    I missed that..

    "They're called 'privates' for a reason," he says. "I'm wearing pants, for fuck's sake. Lay off. I mean, it's not like I'm a fucking lead miner. There are harder jobs in the world. But when people feel the freedom to create Tumblr accounts about my cock, I feel like that wasn't part of the deal ... But whatever. I guess it's better than being called out for the opposite."

    what...deal...

    i assume he means the fame 'deal' where some people say "you make millions of dollars off people like me, you lost your expectation to privacy'

    which i think is incredibly facile but is a prevailing opinion nonetheless

    That he can control the scrutiny he gets as a celebrity?

    Personally I love Mr. Hamm and I don't think he's unaware of his male privilege (favorite word! DRINK!), but yeah

    now he knows first hand how female celebrities get peeled apart for minor things

    IS THAT A STRETCH MARK ON ZOOEY DESCHANEL'S UPPER ARM?? Letting herself go at last!

    1 week later

    DID ZOOEY DESCHANEL GET PLASTIC SURGERY TO ACHIEVE THOSE FLAWLESS TRICEPS?? What a fake bitch!

    (this did not happen for real i just used random celeb name dwi)
