...

And people wonder why they say the ratings on games aren't working.

I'm all for getting kids into games, but there's a point at which a child can differentiate betweeen when it's okay to "kill" in a game, and to hurt someone in real life, but I don't think that 4 is it.

Except that girls are better at multitasking than guys. =D

Actually, that is not entirely true. A guy can be receiving a blowjob, using the computer, eating a slice of pizza, and drinking a beer, all at the same time. A woman would have to sit there and concentrate while getting head, and would not be able to do anything simultaneously.

Read the article you fucking moron. Girls REQUESTED to be placed in a seperate bracket than men. Take your self-loathing metrosexuality elsewhere. You won't be scoring any poon on the slashdot forums pretending to be a sensitive pussy. Then again, I'm positive you don't get laid anyways. The moderators are even more fucktarded than you. They have their heads so far up their ass they'd need a floodlight to read the article and find out your comment is the antithesis of "Interesting". I'd go with -5, Pussywhipped or -5, Kneejerk (For a more politically correct rating.. wouldn't want to offend you and take your attention away from the Oxygen Network. I'm sure Opera is fucking fascinating.) PS: Faggot.

Is there nothing left for guys anymore? by AcidComplex · 2004-02-23 09:39 · Score: 0, Troll

Is there nothing left for guys anymore, It seems like every sport/game/everything else sacred to guys is being played by women, which is not the problem, but EXPECT different rules, or let us into the girls bathroom, whats the difference?
