I'm already friends with the two most natural-haired girls in my classes. Am I playing the game right, BCT?

T&Y already lost best album of the year so far to The Pale Emperor
That Anti Korean movement in Japan is looking kind of scary. I've read that the hate speech is incredibly out of hand to the point of there being talks of regulation.

Mad? just got it pencil'd in as honorable mention for 2015
Let's hope he can hold on to that 11-20 area
Not surprising. He played Jazz in one of the Transformers games and sounded almost like Scatman Crothers.
That's beautiful Dreamy.
I once showed a color theme book to a 5 year old. It was the black color page. She told me they were evil (kittens) cause they're black
Or this 8 year old who is obsessed with her biracial sister. Counts her as pretty cause she's light. I then proceeded to ask them what they considered themselves as. They said they were not that dark.
I kind of understand, when i was younger, all the black girls on tv were fair skinned.
I try to tell little black girls that they are beautiful, that they have pretty hair. I try to do my part in some ways.

I wonder why dude was already on my ignore list. I removed him just to put him back on it.

When I was in 1st grade we were coloring rabbits for easter and I made a black one.
Teacher made me do another one so I made a pink one.

bitch I'm taking calls.
On a primal level you also have the colors white and black associated with light and dark. The dark often associated with menacing elements due to the fear that comes from the unknown. People are often afraid of what they don't understand, which makes all too much sense considering the kind of racism people have to deal with on a daily basis.

bish came through with the 8 piece leg and thigh
Distinct possibility, but someone needed to say it. Hopefully I'll be back by BHM.

no it's teh start of the year, it was the 1st new album i've listen to so it was by default #1 for the year
only the track Deliver is replayablity

I was gonna say.
2015 would have to be a real weak year to warrant T&Y making a list of notable releases cause it doesn't compare to the top releases of 2014.

By the way, what where the Reapers doing with dark energy in Mass Effect? That conversation from a week or two ago had me wondering.

Replayability is real low though, it's basically FNL2: Part 2.
even I won't go that far

To me, it feels like each replay of the more lengthy tracks gives more insight. I think the long tracks and extra-heavy lyricism were done for this purpose.
FNL2 suffered from being forgettable; T&Y has way more soul, IMO.

Didn't that plot point get dropped after Mass Effect 1?

For sure there's double meanings and whatnot you catch the more you listen to it but the music itself just isn't very good.
It's like putting together a puzzle and when it's complete it's just a big biege square.
I believe so.
No, it was significant to Tali's story in Mass Effect 2.
Basically what the antispirals were doing in TTGL with spiral energy.
Dark energy was consuming the universe so the Reapers were created to stem the advance of the phenomenon by subsuming sufficiently advanced species.

Wait, how does dark energy go on to consume the universe though
Even buying into the heat death hypothesis I don't see the logistics behind it

thats cold.
bruh, they created "element zero" to explain FTL travel. It would have been little more than a plot device.
but dark matter (and ergo, energy) 'exists' in actual physics as an indirectly observable phenomenon, and is currently credited as the driving of the universe's expansion. They probably would have tied it into increasing entropy and therefore being the logical destruction of sentient life or something.
You'd need to ask the original writer, but I'm certain he would have pulled it together. Bioware simulataneously shows the flaws and the credits in having a single voice handling all the story for a game series. I wouldn't have even played Mass Effect (and as a result Dragon Age) if the books weren't so solid (though it did cause a lot of dissonance when Baddy McBadass from the book is just a mook in the games (though fucking up Kai Leng was beyond cathartic)). But at the same time, if your writer bounces on you, then you end up with Mass Effect Deception, a book so bad that they had to apologize and offer a massive patch (yes a fuck novel had a patch) to fix that poorly written and factually inaccurate piece of shit that wouldn't even pass for fan fiction, and Mass Effect 3, where all of the plot threads Karpyshan had set up that the new writers didn't understand were just tossed. Like Dark Energy. The best we can hope for is a Donner Cut novel of ME3 that shows how Drew would have written the story. Though that has almost no chance of happening.
Actually. I still have his email. Ima ask him.

how long until the thread inquiring about the meaning of a certain phrase will pop up?
Bruh, we two weeks from BHM. That can literally mean anything at this point.
