+ Show Spoiler + I know not many people (read: nobody) will be interested in this, but this video explains just how many references to other games/series are made in Skullgirls ranging from Battletoads to Madoka Magica (had to google that one).

Watching Qtpie try to melee Deathclaws is fun. I wonder when he'll understand that it isn't the most reasonable course of action.

Arrow is the best worst show ever made. It's highly silly and awesome as fuck at the same time.
The Flash is like Arrow Season 1: good but not there yet.
I'm so excited for this week's episodes (THAT I HAVEN'T WATCHED YET) I can't stand it.

I agree. It's like Arrow could be so much better, but they pull themselves down at random times. I don't get it, but it's not a bad show.
Will probably watch all of Flash when the season is finished so I don't have to wait 1 week at a time for episodes that might not mean anything at all.

http://www.twitch.tv/scyx17 was her stream but now the channel was closed by twitch. But yeah apparently Scy went through an operation and a lot of hormones, so now he's a she.

To the questions of Belgian relation: if I kind of remember it correctly (17th century history and onwards is kinda vague to me), the Dutch were jealous of our beer, fries, chocolates and waffles, therefor they tried to raze everything related to it, then trying to mask it as a religious seperation.
But for real now, I really don't remember how it went. The gist of it is that we felt mistreated, teamed up with the french speaking region to create an unworkable situation under the approval of the UK.

Are you a Wallonian or Flander Belgian? I've met and kept in touch with a dozen of Belgian over the years but obviously they're all from Wallonia.

Sounds pretty common during protestant reformation.

Sounds pretty common during protestant reformation. Uh, Belgium proper was separate from the Netherlands until 1815 when it was given to the Netherlands.
Before that, it was part of the Duchy of Burgundy, became the Spanish later Austrian Netherlands, and then was annexed by Revolutionary France.
Long past the Reformation/Counter-Reformation.

Hmm, a lot of those could be seen as continuations though, European history is like that. Aside from the Revolutionary French (god a what a joke, Napoleon is rolling in his grave over how much a laughing stock France has become...)

I'm Flemish, grew up in Bruges, lived a bit in Ghent, now I'm in Brussels. Why would you assume I'm Flemish Tolkien? lol
The actual seperation of Holland wasn't super interesting imo, it's the problems that led to the present day between the different language regions that are much more interesting. We basically make something impossible work. I have no problem with Wallonia (maybe just the fact that I can not speak decent French for the life of me), but there's been so many economic/political/social issues over the years that we kind of also made it in the best democracy in the world. One where we slowly start to realize democracy actually doesn't really work (that's why we can't form governments or decent governments with decent incentives at least). And our nation is going haywire at the moment: every monday (for a month now) public transportation has been on strike, 15 december it's national strike because the reforms are just too brutal.
And for a little bit of personal opinion: I feel like it's only politicians standing in the way of Belgium truly working, because us, as Belgians, have probably the most experience in the world when it comes to getting dominated by other civilizations. We just roll along and just kinda want it to work now. The shit from last decade has made me strongly apolitical, so I've kinda stopped investing into learning ALL those different parties with all those different subtleties and all the different hierarchies.
