Potara earring hype

Could've sworn they were yellow. Wonder why those ones are green.

Potara earrings are indeed yellow, but these green earrings are different. Instead of fusing the two wearers, they fuse the wearer with the nearest black man - hence, Black Goku. Look at that expression, you just know he'll pop a cap in you the second you look away.




Spoiler
I regret nothing.

InB4 Sep7agon becomes the new Crimea.

"Sep7agon? You mean Русс7агон, right?"
The difference is Sep7agon isn't full of Russians, and people who would like to be citizens of Russia.

Just weebs who would like to be citizens of Japan.

So, you like the idea of having a girlfriend more than actually having a girlfriend? A lot of people are like that.

Revelation.
Revolution.
Reckoning.
Reloaded.
Revengeance.

Stand-alone games that have a subtitle ("Tormentum: Dark Sorrow" would be so much better if it was just "Tormentum") are annoying as hell. Same with the first game in a series ("Amnesia: The Dark Descent" would be so much better if it was just "Amnesia").

Apparently Lemony Snicket deliberately made the last book as anticlimactic and non-explanatory as possible.

And in however many issues this change (if it ends up being for real) will be undone.

Comic books are all about the "illusion of change", hence grand events like Crisis on Infinite Earths, and so forth. Every few years all events and character arcs will be reset, and we'll be back to good old Steve Rogers fighting Nazis, and Peter Parker in his Aunts house.

Crisis did change a lot of stuff, though. And everyone hated OMD.

You're right about Captain Stevemerica, though. Nobody seriously expected Old Man Rogers to last.
Sorry, I don't know too much about Crisis. I just see those big universe-spanning events as a way of resetting every major character to somewhere resembling square one.

The Pre-Crisis multiverse ran on a negative continuity - that is, things get reset at the end of every story, with a few exceptions. It never really left square one until Crisis, which was mostly just an excuse to get all of the popular characters from different universes into one universe to make crossovers easier. Marvel did the same thing with Secret Wars last year.

Flashpoint was totally just an excuse to get everything back to square one though, which evidently turned out to be a mistake.

Delay them, more like. If his death hadn't occurred, something else would have set off the Great War.

Spiders are awesome, but I do tend to kill them out of reflex if I find one near me.

"I am disappointed, Veidt. Very disappointed. Restructuring myself after the subtraction of my intrinsic field was the first trick I learned. It didn't kill Osterman. Did you think it would kill me? I've walked across the surface of the sun. I've seen events so tiny and so fast they hardly can be said to have occurred at all, but you...you are only a man. And the world's smartest man poses no more threat to me than its smartest termite."

So where has culture and art come from

Why do we choose to choose to be monogamous instead of polygamous like our programming dictates 
And why do we go against our programming to stay with our mate when we feel attraction to other people
Why do we make such unproductive choices?
Why do things that we know are bad for us and that we shouldn't do?

Because the human mind loves finding shapes, patterns, habits, categories, and order in chaos. Physical patterns like colors, lines, and borders, lifestyle patterns like daily schedules and habits, categorizing things as 'good' and 'bad', 'should' and 'should not', and so on.

It's why we try to find faces and objects in clouds, why we only step on certain floor tiles while avoiding others, and why we reflexively stop and count things when we see them in large groups - because we need to put an order to them.

It's just how we're programmed to think.

Sure, just less...fleshy, and disgusting. Wire and circuitry in place of nerve and synapse, and all that. Once they can learn and grow on their own, they meet every relevant qualification.

After that we can move on to making organic machinery, and perhaps in time human life and machine life will be indistinguishable. In that case, would we really be human, and would they really be machine, if we were one in the same?

Still don't like the way it sounds.
I feel that way with the word "manga" and the heavy A you're supposed to use.

Anime is supposed to be pronounced ah-nee-may. But that sounds as dumb as mawn-guh.
