If there were enough opportunities for me to make this my full-time job, I'd certainly consider it. I love the community and it is such a pleasure to get to know these players. I'll be doing some content for Kingston Hyper X at MLG Dallas, and am working on getting some interviews lined up as well. Keep your eyes out for them! | ||

Also my views on premarital sex is very different than your own, my question is, Do you base your's on a spiritual (religious) aspect or emotional? Because it sounds like it's coming from an emotional standpoint, in which case, I don't see the reason to wait (married to my pasttime friendwithbenefit, so im not a creeper or anything) My view obviously skewed around due to many psychological inconsistencies, I didn't exactly have the blessing of a stable life, but I can't fathom any reason to wait when you know you want to be with the person. I learned the opposite way I found out while doing the deed. Which in my opinion rules out sex as a possible motivater for marriage. I'm sure you can trust men, but from my PoV I don't see how women can trust men with a commitment like marriage while withholding... It seems to me that there would always be the worry they're just doing it for the lay, specially with the consistency of divorces in today's age. I understand the point to be made in an ideal setting but in reality? I just don't think it holds up...But if you got that ideal setting /thumbs up and all the more power to the two of you, but tbh I've only seen 1 storied couple ending... and even that has time to crumble. TL;dr im very disillusioned. 1. I've never seen the Cell. 2. For me it is all of the above: emotional, values-based, and logic-based. It sounds like the crux of your question is: If you wait till marriage for sex, how can you know that the guy you are marrying isn't just doing it so that he can sleep with you? My answer would also come in the form of a question: Why on Earth would a guy wait that long for me and agree to tie the knot if he was only in it for sex to begin with? o_O | ||

And if you wait until marriage to have sex, and suddenly find out that the two of you are completely sexual opposites, at least one of you is going to be constantly frustrated. I absolutely believe that its a good idea to wait to have sex until you're with someone who you feel is truly special and that you love. But waiting until the artificial and unnatural construct that is the institution of marriage is asinine. Marriage is nothing more and nothing less than the formal and legal recognition of a relationship that should already exist. You don't get married and then build a relationship after that. You build a relationship, get married to have that relationship legally recognised by your country, to have it formalised in the eyes of society, and then continue your life together. Marriage is part of the journey of a relationship, not the beginning of the journey. I am also a strong believer in living together before marriage. Its retardedly idiotic to think that you can know what its like to live with someone without doing so, and getting married and immediately moving in together is RIFE with problems. Living together is one of the hardest things to do with another person, and love is not always enough to overcome fundamental disagreements. You can't really know what a person is like in their private home life until you actually live with them for an extended period of time. My fiancee and I have been engaged since May last year, but she was living with me from November of the previous year. We live together in my small 1 bed 1 bath unit. Its a small place, but we are a good match to each other, we have similar views on how neat a house should be, and if you can live with someone in that sort of environment you can endure anything that comes up. But we wouldn't have known that until we did live together, and you're taking a massive risk on a lot of things when you treat marriage as the beginning of a life together rather than as part of the journey, ESPECIALLY if you've waited for sex too. | ||

I'm also a full time engineering student at a university so between that and a girlfriend I'm very short on personal time for things like starcraft. Before I was with her I was having a pretty rough semester (15 hours, all math and engineering classes T.T) so I would only play SC2 a few days a week just to mainly blow off steam when I had some free time between homework. Then this girl came along and started taking up all my time and I would have zero time for gaming. I'm not trying to blame her for everything but at the same time I feel like she could have respected my lack of time and given me some space. I'm not really upset about breaking it off with her and I don't regret it. I don't feel like all my free time should be 100% dedicated to a girlfriend when I have so many other things going on in my life. What's your take on this? Should I look for a girl in the future that's more in to gaming that can sympathize with me? Maybe somebody who's just as busy as me so she can't have time to sit around and call me? Or maybe I just don't need a girlfriend considering how busy my life is in this stage? | ||

What do you think of a developed country like USA's role in the upliftment of a 3rd world country and how intrusive should any involvement be whether good or bad? On a related note please, if you and Geoff ever come to India, do give a holla! I wud be delighted to put you guys up, no charge. (K, maybe a lesson or two wud be nice!) + Show Spoiler + Please continue to team up with Joshy for thise great interviews. He seems to have very good production sense too. Dude, one of the most life-changing times I've had was working with Mother Teresa's organization, the Missionaries of Charity, in Kolkata, India! Too bad we didn't touch base back then. I keep telling Geoff that we have to go back together, so bug him about it. I don't know if I can really claim any "third world" countries, though I have spent time in poverty stricken areas like Kolkata, or Tecate, Mexico where I did some volunteer work as well. My opinion on US involvement is very much heart-driven. I am a fan of capitalism, and will be one of the first to support policies to protect our economy from excessive or unnecessary drain. But when it comes to humanitarian support, it's hard for me to name a price. I think of it this way: Let's say I live in a house with my family, and have a good, stable, but not opulent life. Then, I learn that, in my next door neighbors house, there is abuse going on, or excessive hunger - something bad happening to other people. I wouldn't hesitate to share what my family had in order to help or to interceed on behalf of one of my neighbors. In the same way, as globalization makes the world an increasingly smaller community, it would be improper for a country with the resources of the United States not to extend itself to help when appropriate. The manner and extent of that help is impossible to determine other than on a case by case basis, but as a general rule, I think we all have a responsibility to protect human rights on a global scale. If we do that correctly, we will never be overextending ourselves, imposing our values where they should not be, or withholding help that we should give. + Show Spoiler + Josh will be at MLG Dallas... maybe I can talk him into doing a couple quick projects together in between the content I'll be doing for Kingston HyperX. | ||

Would you push the button? Obviously I would use the force to call my lightsaber, slice through the wall to the room where iNc was being held, kill the Rancor, and escape in my x-wing. I think we would both probably push the button. EDIT: And by the way that wins the "Most Depressing Question in the Thread Award" hands-down. | ||

Would love to hear it from your perspective haha. OH MY GOSH, dude this is seriously so funny, I had almost forgotten about that! Ok so it's the day before Valentine's Day, 2006. Geoff and I are Duo Dramatic Interp Partners on the Oregon State Speech and Debate Team, and we are on campus for our home tournament. I've been laying it on pretty thick for the past few days: the typical touching the arm, leaning on the shoulder, hovering around "I FREAKING LIKE YOU, OK" girl moves. And nothing. Nothing. Clueless gamer. So my roommate, who is also on the Speech Team with us, notes my dismay, approaches Geoff and says: "So, are you taking Anna out for Valentine's Day or....?" (Mind you, I'm like, 25 feet away. So high school.) Geoff's face could not have been more deer-in-headlights (don't move or it might scare this situation away!) He stutters out: "Uh... does... well... I mean... would she... you think... she'd want me to or...?" "Yep." Says my roommate. I have never seen anyone look so confused, motivated, excited, and petrified at the same time. Long story short, the conversation at the end of the night sounded something like: "Hey so uh... you have any fun plans for Valentine's Day?" "Nope!" (stares expectantly) "Huh." (long pause) "..." (stares expectantly) "So... I dunno, you wanna like... do something maybe?" "Yes." "Cool." (glowing) We decided to go out to dinner the following night at a tiny well-known restaurant in Corvallis that had been recommended to us as having some semblance of elegance/romance. I was thrilled. The night comes and he picks me up after we both go home and change out of our dorky Speech Team clothes. (I remember I was wearing heels and a skirt and that's when I first learned how to stupefy him.) He gets my door as we pull up to the restaurant, pulls my chair for me at the table, and is every bit chivalrous and attentive. We pick up the menus and I begin to peruse the fare. I ask Geoff what he's getting and suddenly I notice he's a little flushed. "Aww... he's still nervous" I think to myself, and try to seem not threatening. Truth is, I'm excited as all heck myself, and find I'm all of a sudden less and less hungry. Geoff says he's not sure what he wants... he wants to hear what I'm getting first... and I should order whatever suits my fancy. But there are beads of sweat on his forehead now. So strange... I'm trying so hard to be a comfortable date...? Now my stomach is not excited much for dinner at all. Searching the menu again, strawberry cheesecake dessert sounds like the only thing I could possibly desire. "I'm not really so hungry," I admit "I'm kinda thinking just of dessert..." "Oh, okay, sure" he says gallantly. Phew. I haven't offended him. "Honestly, I don't even want the whole thing... you wanna share maybe?" I venture - the red is receding from his cheeks. "Sure, ok." He concedes. What a nice guy, so laid back. We have our cheesecake (delicious) and soon head back to his place where he presents me with a birthday gift he had bought me: A Collector's Edition Monty Python and the Holy Grail DVD set, since I had mentioned a few days before that I hadn't seen it, and wanted to. We cuddled up and watched it, talked through the night, and stayed up for the next 2 nights consecutively talking and cuddling. + Show Spoiler + (and finally having our first kiss ) Before all that though, on the way back to the car from the restaurant, he lets me in on a little secret. As we were walking into the restaurant, he had checked the balance of his bank account on his phone, remembering that he had splurged his college budget on my present earlier that day. He found he had only 7 dollars. With the looming threat of his credit card being declined, he had watched me perusing the menu, praying for mercy. The cheesecake I wanted was 6 dollars. I never had any idea. He was so relieved that God had spared him, he couldn't help but tell me about it right away. What a nerd. <3 #winning. | ||
