It might be worth the extra 20% you might pay, 12 bucks or so, to get honest answers from the niche store clerk about content. Just like the explicit lyrics label the ESRB rating, when not covered by the price tag, doesn’t tell you near enough about what you’re buying. Ask around before you buy. Come here and ask if you’ve got nowhere... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html Mon, 30 Apr 2007 15:42:22 -0600 Grab you by your little tail and send you off spinning like an axe. You'll hit something hard. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59594 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59594 Tue, 01 May 2007 06:15:36 -0600 Do I at least get credit for throwing off google and not setting off PG-17C with attrocious spelling? Dang. Still, wrong target. And Ferrets don't fly all that well. Our weight distro is off. So you can throw us like clay pigeons all you want. You'll still miss. *nyaaaaaa* Oh, and righteous anger? I think you do that often enough. Even if you dont' get to use your big vocabulary. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59592 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59592 Mon, 30 Apr 2007 21:28:50 -0600 Oh, and if I have to be fair and balanced, and can only criticize something if I criticize everything remotely related to it... Well, tough noogies, smelly rodent, I don't have the time. Just as a fisherman doesn't catch all the fish that swim by, nor the cop pull over all the speeders that whizz by, so to I will fire on targets of opportunity that meet the ROE. Others will escape. Pull! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59590 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59590 Mon, 30 Apr 2007 17:10:37 -0600 I don't care. 8^ ) It's the end of civilization as we know it, Sid Meier notwithstanding. Sheesh. I know all that stuff, Ry. That said - it's still a tacky, tasteless, eminently successful, given all the ink they've garnered, event. I get to contemn and lament the event, that's within the bounds of cultural discourse. We only have a gripe when I get all het up about *regulating* it, outside of public pressure. Just sayin'. Well, that, and I like getting the opportunity to use the word contemn, since I don't often get that chance. Heh. I should check the server logs for how many departures from here go to dictionary.com and their ilk... ;^ ) http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59589 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/04/having_recieved.html#comment-59589 Mon, 30 Apr 2007 17:03:43 -0600
