So if you don't like something that Bioware put into the game, you are therefore creepy and stalky. That makes perfect sense. So is everyone who doesn't like the EDI/Joker pairing a creepy Joker stalker too?


Now how in the blue end of hell did you get this dribbly-doo-doo from what I said?  Because I didn't say anything that resembles what you just said.

Either you have difficulties in comprehending what you read, you simply skimmed over what I wrote (as it had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with anything Bioware has done with Tali or Garrus), or you're a creepy stalky Talitard.

Talitards often "misremember" what people have written to defend their slobbery Talifappery.  They can't help it.  It's the same thing creationist cretins do when faced with evidence they don't like and aren't smart enough to talk around.

Also, Joker trying to tap his AI sexbot is not that creepy - I mean, guys pay between five and ten grand to have their own soulless silicone-soft EDI-likes custom made al'a Real Dolls.  I've no doubt a Tali or two have been ordered by now.  

Probably a Miranda or two, as well. 

Well... maybe it is kinda creepy.

Talitards also can't take a joke.  Or criticism.

Ah, I see. I thought you were trying to make a point relevant to the thread, but instead you were just going on some crazed tangential rant. My mistake.

Also, you seem a little upset. Did your boyfriend leave you for Tali or something?

Hahahaha! I'm sorry, but that honestly cracked me up. lmao! (yeah, ok, I'm easily amused!)

I actually thought the Garrus/Tali pairup was awesome. I was fully planning on playing ME3 with my 'main' shep, who happens to romance Garrus. Once I heard that they would pair up, I thought that was so awesomely adorkable, that I swapped my main shep for my Liara romance shep, just so I could have those two as a couple. They are my favorite characters (along with EDI)....so yeah, I think its great that they can get a bit of happiness in the mddle of all the chaos, good on them.

No.

This has destroyed me.

I am ashes.

Devastated.  

I would never have predicted this.  It never occured to me that here, in BSN of all places, that this would happen.

As I contemplated this rejoinder,  tears filled my eyes from the sheer and utter ...incisiveness of this unbelievably witty and erudite riposte.

Here I thought I was just jousting with another rube, but no - I run into a writer for the humour section of the New Yorker.  

An Oscar Wilde of BSN.

I was almost instantly and immediately - nay, irrevocably put in my place with that urbane and completely charming homosexual slur/bon mot that I can't - won't ever, ever try to match wits with you again.

You, sir - are an INTERNET GAWD.

I may just have to go immolate myself.

I'm glad you enjoyed it.  As I have been humbled so decisively, I can only beg for scraps now.

Indeed.  It also had the good taste to be as funny as hell.

I still don't see how this qualifies as a romance or something that's "cute".

Basically, my girl Tali played Garrus like a CHUMP

She gets his attention, love, and affection prior to the final mission, and he gets what? To lick her helmet?? LMFAO!!

As soon as she made her intentions clear with "Something to come back to??? I'm only using you for your body" I was like "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN GARRUS!!!"  I honestly felt bad for the guy.

That's my girl :wub:

The biggest peeve I have with Tali/Garrus hooking up is that I feel like it was an effort from Bioware to present Liara as the "canon" romance. You can't start a romance with any of the ME2 characters, they pair off two of the fan favorites, and Kaidan/Ashley are out for pretty much half the game.

I wouldn't actually have much of a problem with this if Liara also got with someone if not romanced.

Why thank you. I do my best.

In all seriousness though, immature as I'm aware my comment was (and in retrrospect probably should not have made; I even apologize for it, gentleman that I am), it was about as constructive to this thread as your posts have been, and was far more concise besides.

Now, if you would care to explain your points thoughtfully and without resorting to insults, I would be more than glad to do the same in return.

Forgive me for making a mini quote pyramid, but let me get this straight.  You just made the tired old Tali sexdoll joke and then accuse someone else of having no originality?  :huh:

The internet has many things.  Clever/funny trolls aren't one of them.

there is nothing wrong with them I like it and it gives them both depth just cos you and myself didn't see it develop dose not make it any less deleavable to me it makes more sense that tali is into gerus rather than ether of them being with Shepherd.

Why are people so sensitive about it? There are people that thought the relationship was forced. The advise given was, "yeah, it was forced, ignore it. Out of sight out of mind".

The only reason I can see people obsessing over this is if you guys were the guys that suggested they add it and loved it and are offended that people don't think it was a good idea.

On a related subject, I just saw the last South Park episode that was about this. A black girl moved in and had feelings for Kyle and Cartman spent the whole episode trying to get her to forget Kyle and go for Tolken because they were both black, so obviously they should be together. It just reminded me of this issue.

Wait..what?

"just cos you and myself didn't see it develop" is essentially a green light for inserting ANYTHING into the story at any time, regardless of feasibility.

A golden unicorn suddenly appears in the men's restroom as a squadmate in the final half of the game - "oh well, just cos you and myself didn't see it develop doesn't mean it doesn't make sense."

Come on man, that's just goofy, and I think you know it.

I thought it was humorous, what's the big deal? If you felt so strongly about it you should have made her your love interest. ;)

It's not a big deal. Again.... it's not in any cut scenes and can easily be ignored. If people who don't like it annoys someone.... you can ignore the people that don't like it.

My point was pretty simple. 

Only Shepard - and via Sheppy, the player, gets to tap Talitail.  It's pretty straightforward.  Every response by a Talifapper so far has been completely predictable, from the "She's mine whether I romanced her or not," right down to the "Gee, yuir sex doll crack is old, herpderp."  D'uh.

It was an illustration of how this thread will inevitably devolve.  I was just slapping 'em around a bit, Talihatin' monster that I am.  I have a hard time taking any thread on Tali seriously, unfortunately.  It's impossible to talk about her without the 'fappers a-****** and ruining it.

*Shrug*

Simple fact:  Tali and Garrus were funny as hell as a couple, and it made the most sense for them to end up that way.  

Tali and Shepard is that "little sister" vibe, Shep taking advantage of a young girl's hero worship.  I am just not cool with that, and I can't understand why others are - it's like trying to hook up with your best buddy's little sister now that she's filled out - 17 and ripe for your 25 year old slobber.  "Dude - she seduced me!"  Dafuq.

There ain't no way that's not creepy.

See, here we come to the point of the issue. You don't think that Tali/Shepard is a good couple. Others feel the same way about Tali/Garrus. They don't want to see it in their game the same way you don't want Tali/Shepard in yours. Why should the option to discourage it (like you can with both Joker/EDI and Donelly/Daniels) not exist? More choice in an RPG is always a good thing, right?

This seems like an admission of trolling to me. And from what I've seen, most of the insulting or rude posts seem to be on the pro-couple side (see that "aren't you a couple of dicks" post that's been quoted a million times thus far).

Garrus should know better than to go cruising for booty on the Normandy. That's the captain's privilege on any ship. Only female he should be interacting with is Williams since everyone hates her anyway.

Not Romance Tali why would you do that? But in all seriousness they made the relationship out of nothing except that they were playable squad members in all three games, it just goes to show that they don't care about any romance option other than Liara, Ashley, and Kaiden.

Please don't go around insulting; you'll set him off again.

After all, I apologized for what I said, and would rather that whole unpleasant exchange not be brought up again. We're all adults here (well, maybe not; can't tell age through a screen), and from here on out should all treat each other in a respectful manner (whether or not it is reciprocated).

Anyway, to be on-topic, the notion that everyone who doesn't like the pairing does so because of jealousy is a false one. Many people (myself included) who dislike Tali/Garrus would be fine with Tali/Kal'Reegar, or Garrus/some female turian, etc.

Have a PS3 so I've never been stuck with the human squad mates from ME1. I've watched my friend playthrough the game a couple of times so I'm familiar at least on a subconscious level with 90% of the dialogue. Based on this experience and how much I hate the both of them, I've decided that Kaiden never survives Virmire based on that fact that he doesn't have boobs and thus Ashley gets by thanks to her random XX coding (take that feminism!). 

Getting to shoot her in the face though was one of the only bright spots of a second run through ME3; I could only wish Garrus was hittin' that so I could have brought him along to see me execute Crazy M****rusting.
