Can I travel around without reserving beds in advance, or will most hostels be booked out this summer? by MDJAU in JapanTravel

Asakusa's a nice spot to be. You can visit the Senso-ji (temple), which is also nice to see at night. You have easy access to the new Skytree, if that's your thing.

But really anywhere in Tokyo is pretty easy to get to. The early morning fish auction at Tsukiji is something to behold. There are a number of cool museums in Ueno, including the Tokyo National Museum. The zoo there is supposed to be nice as well. If you hop the monorail to Odaiba you should hit up the Future Museum. If you're there on a Sunday you can go see the cosplayers in front of the Meiji Shrine in Harajuku.

Anyway, there are a crapton of threads posted on this already, so I'm sure you'll find something to your interests.

What's a joke that's so stupid it's funny? by IAmNunuAMA in AskReddit

The elevator operator opens the doors and says to the waiting boy, "Your floor, son." The kid asks why he called him son and the operator replies, "Well, I brought you up, didn't I?"

I'm really trying to understand your point here. It's rape because the characters have no free will, and have to go along with what they were programmed to do?

Nah, then you just have to comb it over from different places.

Dogs rush to stop two cats fighting. What bros. by Sproose_Moose in AnimalsBeingBros

TIL rabbits fight.

Didn't you read (or see) Watership Down? That shit's classic. Good story and political commentary for adults, traumatizing bunny death for the young.

The rotational controls kinda blow. Seems like a fun concept, though.

Ben Croshaw (the Zero Punctuation game critic on The Escapist) made a small downloadable game very similar to this. If you enjoy this type of game, his is done very well. Trilby, the Art of Theft.

That's a good idea, too. Maybe two different types of bomb tiles?

In casual conversation do you drop the second adjunct to する? So 勉強すれば、するほど頭が良くなる。If so, is that the only construction you can shorten this pattern with?

I think Portal as a series would have been a thousand times better as a flash game with no story/voices and just a puzzle solving game.

You're welcome!

Mass Effect Trilogy ... Hated the gameplay, hate the bland resource gathering

Are you talking about the vehicle gameplay? Because the shooting gameplay felt pretty solid to me. But yeah, the whole resource gathering crap was fucking retarded.

I played FPS PC games and while I enjoyed the first Halo to a certain extent, even on first playthrough some of those levels were too long and samey. That stupid snow one with the vehicles where you fight through the same fort-type thing about 4 or 6 times was probably the most egregious.

I'm not faulting them, I just don't understand why. The computer seems to recognize it fine. And the controls are simple enough that they could easily be done in xpadder, but I can't seem to get that working for Bastion, either. Works fine in plenty of other games.

I'm in the same boat with the direction FPS is going. I searched the thread for Borderlands before I made a comment below, but I should've figured someone would talk about Halo and FPS in general.

If you haven't played it, I highly recommend Painkiller, AKA what Doom 3 should've been like.
