Again, you're just reinforcing that it's ok to be hyper critical of a woman's appearance.
(Yo, it isn't!)
I mean, y'all are certainly free to criticize folks for how they look, because I wouldn't want to police you or anything, but you should not be surprised by the clapback.
Teaching folks reading comprehension isn't my job.
I'd distinguish it as being critical of her costume, not of a woman's appearance more generally. If you're going to dress up as a character, having costume inaccuracies pointed out is obviously not a slight on your appearance, but rather of your costume-creation skills (presumably).
Sophia was also being sarcastic and exaggerating in response to Dantis's own comment.
Clearly next time I need to make more use of exclamation marks in my second post.
Right. I don't care about her body or personal appearance. Obviously not, as I wouldn't like it if someone mocked my own appearance. But small details (like the armband being on the wrong arm) are easily fixable and would make the cosplay itself go from awful to amazing.

apparently, had I known, I woulda marked it on my calender :/
To be fair, written/typed sarcasm can be hard to notice at times.

Ain't that the truth...

Man, I love Calvin and Hobbes.
Masterful comic strips.
Probably worth pointing out that 90% of the things people get mad at me for saying are sarcasm and/or jokes.
The father is my favorite.
Couldn't agree with you more. Calvin and Hobbes was awesome.

Sophia, teaching folks reading comprehension isn't your job.
Eh, not always. Most of us regulars (or at least, me and Buddha....) have learned to tell when you're being sarcastic/joking, and when you're not. I try to respond accordingly to the sarcasm with more sarcasm.
You think? For all you know it might just be my real daytime job! ;p

Your first response to a project a group of fans put a lot of hard work into was was literally "That cosplay/phptoshopped/whatever image of Aigis is awful. The details are all wrong."
(I suppose I could also directly quote Jintor about how it's not ok, even if you were doing it facetiously, but he's already decided to direct one of my posts.<3)

Ok, That's it. You two are getting no where with this. Stop.
Heh, quite.
The list fluctuates (Which is to say I'm probably forgetting something), but basically, in no particular order:
Saving Private Ryan
American Gangster
The Social Network
Zodiac
Rear Window
The Sound of Music
Kiki's Delivery Service
The Birds
Mean Girls
We Need To Talk About Kevin
I'm sure I'm forgetting something though.
Jintor got me thinking last night: Can we talk game of the year? I wanna see lists!
I'll have to think of mine. Last of Us is at the top, but besides that... There's been an awful lot of good games.
You're definitely a horrible person.

Or read the book because it's drastically superior.
Haven't even played it. Expectations are incredibly low. Doesn't look like my type of game at all.
orz.
What's our time difference anyway? I assume you're GMT, right? I think I'm GMT +10 or +11... I always forget about how exactly daylight savings works, and more importantly, when...
Hm, I don't even know. Poor college student, barely played any new games this year. Only AAA game I played was Bioshock 3: Bioshock Infinitely. Other than that mostly indies, the best of which would maybe be Don't Starve? I don't even know. Modern things are overrated anyway!

Well if it's not your type of game then yeah I don't think you'd appreciate it as much.
Story is stupidly phenomenal though and it's bombastic as hell. I absolutely love it.

Oh, I forgot that came out this year. Yeah that was also pretty great.
It's very good, yes.
I need to solidify a top 5 for the year. I can say Saints Row IV is at the top with Remember Me (much to my surprise) in second.

Game of the year. Hrm.
I liked Bioshock Infinite, but the gameplay really turned me off and made the game fail for what it was going for. Too many "gamey" parts ruined a lot of the atmosphere, something Bioshock 1 didn't have a problem with at all.
The Last of Us......yeah probably would be it, can't think of much else sadly enough. Tomb Raider was ok, and will be great in a sequel(if there is one).
SMT 4 I barely scratched the surface of, Pokemon got a lot of old-timer feels but it's still pokemon.....
I think the game I enjoyed the most probably was AA5. It's a toss-up between LoU and that probably.
Welp, nice knowing everyone.

1) Last of Us
2) Tomb Raider
3) God of War Ascension
3) Puppeteer
5) Fire Emblem Awakening
That'll about do it. Phenomenal year though. Played (And really enjoyed) so many games.
SR4 is incredible. I was so surprised.
Remember Me is good, but it was miles off my game of the year. I had some problems with aspects of it.

Not 100% final list:
1. The Wonderful 101
2. Pikmin 3
3. Pokemon X
4. Ace Attorney Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies
5. Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Man what a Nintendork.
Edit: I played a lot of fantastic games this year, and this is in no way final, but man, these were the games that I enjoyed the most I'd say.

I honestly don't know what my game would be. There's still a lot of games I haven't played from this year, and I don't count HD (1.5) remixes, but as it stands, I'd probably go with New Leaf. Even six months after it's come out, it remains the only game I still try to play every day. Second place would be Etrian Odyssey IV (it's been a while since I've wanted to play any RPG enough to want to 100%; not even the SMT games can get me to do that).
As far as disappointments go, it'd definitely be Bioshock Infinite. The shooting was barely serviceable enough to get me through the game for what should've been the highlights of the game, which I found predictable and forgettable. The characterization was fine, but if you've looked into quantum physics as an from an educational standpoint, as either a math or physics major (especially the poor physics majors), you'd realize how heavy-handed and clumsy the plot was with its foreshadowing. I could NOT for the life of me understand how people thought the story was "mind-blowing."

The Last of Us is a GREAT game,The combat manages to be formulaic (in a good way), but at the same time exciting so if you die, you know it was you're fault. The voice acting is amazing. But I found that the story was slightly cliche, and I found myself guessing what was going to happen next very often
until the very end at least.
