I would think Batman dressing provocatively would be even more confusing/distracting to his male opponents. You like My Little Pony? That's so girl- wait, what. I don't even know anymore.

Welcome to the wonderful world of furrydom. If you're creeped out by that, I don't suggest looking for furry webcomics. Haha, yes. Truthfully, you can write a sexually liberated female character and still make her a strong character. It's just that that's not usually what happens. It's like, it's fine if [random superheroine] likes sex and isn't afraid to use it to get what she wants, but maybe she should make sure her breasts won't accidentally pop out of her unitard while she's fighting bad guys and do we have to look down her cleavage all the time?

The funny thing is that Toby Gard, the creator of Lara Croft, always hated the oversexualization of her. The story goes, he accidentally increased the breast slider too much and the other guys at Core Design made him keep her breasts that way. But that may just be an urban legend. I think it's funny when attempts to make women sexy fail. Like this X-Blades cover. While I don't agree with Catwoman showing off her cleavage for no reason, I can at least see the appeal. This is just creepy.

Well, yes. The issue isn't that men and women are attractive in comics/movies/games (oh, that dreamy Marcus Fenix). The problem is that while Batman gets to skulk around in the shadows and scare people, Catwoman has to show off her breasts and butt. It's like, Miranda and Jacob are both attractive, but the camera only lingers on one of their butts, and only one of them wears a skin-tight outfit.

Send them to someone who can upload them for you? No idea if that would work. My phone can't even display pictures.

Just work your usual moves on her, Danny.

Yes. This is the internet. The answer is always yes. I recently read a blog post about the sexualization of women in comic books, and the writer got so many responses from men about how men are also depicted with ideal bodies in comic books and how that's totally unfair too, that she eventually had to write a follow-up blog post about how it's not really the same thing. Yes, Batman sure is ripped and all, but that's more of a power fantasy for male readers than it is a sexual fantasy for female readers. Batman doesn't usually stand around in suggestive poses with his penis half-covered, talking about how hot sex is. I think the same goes for most characters in fighters/video games in general. ... What were we talking about again? Oh, right - Peach. I always used Peach in Super Mario Bros. 2, but that was only because she could float.

I used to have a ton of tabs open, but I lost them all in the Great Firefox Crash of '11. It was very freeing. Now I keep things more manageable. Everything after the N-E tab is just temporary stuff.

Donkey Kong is an ape. *Misses the point entirely*

Been playing this game since Christmas Eve and finally got all five sparkling stars tonight. I would have gotten them yesterday, but the prospect of having to play through the entire game a second time for no good reason got me so mad that I played The Sims 3 all night instead. Ugh, pointless padding... Next time, they should just make a longer game instead. Other than that it was great, though. Definitely my favorite handheld Mario game.

Man, poor Herojan. Here he tells us about his crippling OCD, and you just make fun of him.

It's less impressive once you realize that he's only used it once.

Ugh, it's like you're not even listening. Sounds exciting!

... I don't get it. You'll need to stop being so vague.

He kind of looks like someone fat sat on him. :p

You could do a lot worse than Rummy, Moogle.

I'd say... probably the red-haired girl in your avatar or the football guy in your signature. Or ReZ.

No idea. But it sure looked cool.

I've sort of developed a crush recently, and it's really annoying. Life is easier when you're dead inside (or at least when you're not obsessing over someone). :p My current celebrity obsession is Chord Overstreet, for some reason. I feel like this post pales in comparison to Chair's, but eh.

He jumped out of a plane, shot is pursuer with a rocket launcher and then got back in the plane again. What's not to get? :p

Bring out the cat GIFs!

I'm not even nerdy enough to see whatever image you posted. I'm cooler than I thought.

You say that now, but it won't be as much fun when you get the weather you usually get in December in March.

Twilight Princess did the same thing with rupees, so I doubt it was an oversight. Nintendo just thinks we're all idiots. The trick is to play through the game in as few sessions as possible. If you only play an hour at a time, then yeah, you're going to get those messages constantly. Of course, that still doesn't help when you find junk in chests...
