I had a fairly weird exchange with one of my coworkers over Ender once.

+ Show Spoiler [Ender's game spoiler] +
So she was talking about it and how accurately it portrayed geniuses just like the ones in her family, etc., and then I mentioned that when I read it years ago I was surprised at how violent the shower scene was where Ender kills the other kid (or maybe my memory is faulty and he was just seriously injured? IDK it's been 10+ years). It was kind of jarring for me at the time. My coworker's response was that this was just how geniuses thought. Which creeped me out even more because I couldn't remember how Ender "thought" exactly, only that there was violence and Ender wanted to finish things right there. I mean I read the redwall books and stuff but there's a huge difference between that and a much more visceral and detailed naked shower fight.

+ Show Spoiler +
He's already knocked Bozo to the ground and he's already won. But Ender realises that if you hurt someone, they are going to remember it and bear a grudge and come after you again. Bozo is also the leader of his gang. If you want to deal with something, you need to be absolute and make sure you do a full job. So the correct course of action is to hurt him so bad and so much, he will fear Ender and never come back again. Why would you leave loose ends lying around when you can tie them up right here? So he continues to hit Bozo even after he stops moving because you make sure you do a complete job.

Ender has also realised that during his time here that adults are completely useless. He has to fight things for himself and do things for himself. So he takes what he feels is the logical course of action, which is to eliminate the threat right then and there. And that's why Bozo dies.

Has anyone ever played the SC1/SC:BW board game?

Went to a fighting game gathering on campus, and in the same game room, there was a bunch of dudes playing a SC:BW board game. Watched them play for like 20 minutes. Looked like a lot of fun, but definitely one of those board games where 10-20 minute breaks in between the same playthrough are not out of question.

I've won once and lost once. The loss was kinda dumb because my dice were rolling shit and he rolled like 3 no-scatter Shokk Cannons in a row with full pen, and the board we were playing on only had terrain on one side. I'm not too broken up about it, but it's kinda dumb lol.

Dude you'd think with Twin Linking and Reanimation Protocols I'd have had more hits/less deaths, but it was just poop.

Though my first game ever I played against Space Wolves and completely Tabled him while losing 1 Warrior so it was probably karma lol.

It's hilarious watching RollPlay when Neal gets so mad at his dice for rolling shitty when he's trying to kill the party.

Haha, I DM'd a campaign loosely based off TWEWY (similar premise but set in a regular fantasy D&Dverse), and offered the power-hungry Wizard Reaper powers if he killed his teammates.

He rolled like shit on his Fireball and Scorching Ray and the rest of them beat him into submission. It was amazing
