Ted's Comments

Wonder if that's what really happened.

We equip heavy machinery with emergency off switches. Dumb idea to have an assistive car that you can't shut off.

Although it may sound unfair, a lot of people who suffer from epilepsy are not allowed to drive. I worked with a girl who had a seizure while driving. Fortunately, she didn't hit anybody, but she did crack up the company car.

WordyGrrl. Yes, that's a valid "female gamers' concern". In fact, that's a valid concern for gamers male and female - a more realistic assortment and portrayal of characters, as well as the old stereotypes.
Gaming companies aren't just slapping big boobs on a Lara Croft type and saying, "Finished!" any more.

kkirkpat. I wasn't brushing off gender role/stereotype issues in the gaming world, but in the media overall. What concerns did this article address? The fact that she felt she had to justify playing violent video games to her feminist friends, or some such.
Is that worthy of attention? It's not my concern. Maybe there was something particularly memorable in the piece, but it I didn't notice it. Sorry, but I have an opinion, too. Sandi has an opinion, too (before it was deleted, his comment was a lot stronger than mine, but not altogether inaccurate). I don't think Neatorama readers' minds are that fragile, that they can't be subjected to differing opinions. Just because I say something is lame, doesn't mean it has to be lame - but I'm usually right.

The phrases mean pretty much the same thing. If he said, "We will outlast you," you could interpret it as a little more innocuous. "We will bury you" doesn't sound all that reassuring, unles you're really concerned about being cremated or maybe propped up in the corner of the attic by your motel-managing son.

Now there's a picture full of innuendo. Does anyone really hold a controller like that? ;)
Honestly, I tried reading the article, but it got too typical. There's a monotonously bland sameness about people who write about examining gender roles and defying stereotypes.
