ph.d candidates I know who do research in clinical psychology do their best to fit fancy structural equation models which implicate video games in real world violence...but it just never pans out.

they get excited over r-squared values of .03; granted, there's a lot of inter-individual differences between many varieties of people who play video games, but they aren't engaged in real science, no matter how one construes it. it's the hackneyed correlation/causation thing...they don't have the experimental controls to prove anything.

Schadenfreude, nom nom!

"Do you all live close to each other..."

AFAIK, drudgetards are spread all around the country, and we even have a troll from Pakistan to call our own.

Unlike the incestual dogfucking circlejerk that apparently constitutes Panama City, FL...

ITT:

old bags of sag are "human tennis elbow...pizza burn on the roof of the world's mouth...the opposite of Batman."

seems to be one of the few sentiments which can find bipartisan agreement these days (on this blog, or any other) -- along with, "I prefer not to be set on fire."

no wonder Maunder8 fit in so well. perhaps they'll move on to a new would-be internet hugbox, and take him along.

addendum: pic in #7 looks like the pictured fell off the ugly tree, hitting every branch on the way down, plus a 'possum at the bottom. NOPE NOPE NOPE.
