Well, now that MASIAH's morally-dubious statement has been cleared up, I see no reason not to.

I have this terrible habit of picking my fingers until they bleed.

I'm a compulsive nail-biter. My nails have receded so far back past my fingertips that I now resort to chewing off the skin around them. It's disgusting and will undoubtably someday lead to infection, but it's a hard habit to break.

Chup already knows this, but I used to swipe cartridges off the shelf at GameStop and sell them back to them.

TEM, you're totally right about my Ayn Rand goof. I should have said Max Stirner.

But I don't get your denial of a BioShock connection. Are you denying that Andrew Ryan (hyuck hyuck) founded Rapture on Objectivist philosophies?

There's only a vague similarity between the stuff Andrew Ryan says and the things championed by the heroes of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. The "philosophies" on display in BioShock aren't anywhere near developed enough for any kind of real comparison. Rapture was more like an attempt at Anarchy that went super wrong and made Ryan turn into a tyrant near the end instead of the hyper-capitalism espoused by Rand. The only thing that seemed some what legit was Ryan's final words; but that doesn't make up for the amoral insanity that can't even be said to be a perversion of Rand's ideas.

I used to have a sexual attraction to Jessica Rabbit, but then again, what 8 year old boy hasn't?

Well I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I have another confession.  It embarass's me to read the first thread I ever made here, I had no clue what I was thinking when I was introducing myself here.  So much for first impressions...

*Looks for things worthy of confession*... I suppose I could confess that but I'm sure some already do in fact know that, or at least had the minute suspicion of that.

I'm politically a Tea Party activist.

My respect for the Tea Party is currently in the gutter, seeing as how one of them flew his airplane into an IRS building in my home state a few weeks ago.

Wow, my first real confession in this topic.
