Yup. Then again, FF7 is sorta anime-in an awesome video-game-y type way. :D

meh, Final Fantasy in general is a stupid series anyway--especially including and after FF 10, so who gives a hoot?

Many people consider FF7 to be the best linear (meaning you have to follow a specific story line, in case you didn't know) CRPG ever made. After that, most think the series took a crap.

Four if you count Solaris.

Well, I didn't expect to be bukkaked with stupid this morning.

So the good news was that I when I went to get my haircut this morning, no one else but the barber was there (yay! :D).  I even got my beard trimmed. ^_^

The bad news is that when I was in the chair at some point him and my dad started talking about how "everything is made in China these days" (my dad) how "you shouldn't trust people in business in China" (the barber), and talking about American jobs, how China is bad for workers, is only in it for the money, the usual cliche's.  Ugh.  Would it kill people to not talk about economics--or express their bigotry in public like that? Especially early in the bloody morning?
The ironic thing? The barber is Vietnamese.  And he's the proprietor of the barbershop.  Yeah.
Don't get me wrong, he's a nice guy and all (as is my dad) but damn.

What else would they be in it for? The lulz?

wow...just...wow. Putin is an idiot. So is this guy.

I'm not sure how he came up with this conclusion, when:

1-the Muslims won the Crusades
2-victory did not lead to some mass invasion of Europe by the Mamelukes...Who Frankly even if they wanted to (and they didn't) had other, more dangerous enemies to deal with (i.e. the Mongols).

Too be honest, Nobody won that war. The two sides just decided to stop fighting.

The Mamelukes' (and Muslims as a whole) sole objective in the Crusades was to drive out the Crusaders in the Holy Land. In this they enjoyed total success, driving the last of them out in 1291 at Acre. So yeah, the Muslims won from an operational perspective. The Crusaders could have mounted an invasion, but as you correctly mentioned, they kind of lost interest, and there were juicier Non-Catholic targets (Prussia, Andalusia, Rhodes etc). The Mamelukes also lost interest, but that was because there was no one left to fight in the Holy land--not a single Crusader in fact--so they focused on fighting Mongols. (if anything, by 1260, the campaign against the Crusaders was a sideshow to the great struggle against the Mongols)

Only because they never played the previous games.

FF7 is a good game that thinks it's a great game.  The gameplay is solid enough but the story is muddied by horrible translation.
I recently heard that the word heretic is derived from the greek work heriticos which means "able to choose"
The more you know...

"Guns have won. Period. The people who make them have won. The people who sell them have won. The people who want to use them to shoot up elementary schools have won. Iowa's arming the blind. The NRA's fighting state laws to reduce the amount of lead in the bullets used for hunting because there's evidence that the lead in abandoned carcasses is leaching into the environment, and lead does very bad things to the body. We have decided to be an armed nation. And the next time some lunatic opens fire in a movie theater, it really would be nice if we could dispense with the maudlin national mourning pageants on cable-TV and admit that these are the kind of things with which we have chosen to live. It at least would be honest." -Charles Peirce

If capitalism had anything to do with the Holocaust, it was that the Nazis considered it an invention of the Jews. Anti-capitalism does have close ties to anti-Semitism. Those Jews do own the big banks, after all.

And here we go.  That word "privilege" again.  Damn near every time I hear it, it seems to be bullshit.

Reminds me of Feminists QQ'ing about how oppressed they are by "rich white Christian heterosexual males".  Yet as Morrakiu proved, white males are the least oppressive males on the entire planet.  And given murder statistics (who is murdered), it sounds like women, especially older white women are the least oppressed people on the face of the earth.
