I didn't think females were capable of Tali sweat levels.

The more you know..

they were joking, and a huge argument had broken out that went into the general agreement that nsfw jokes and the like would have to be in spoiler tags and nsfw materials to be linked (maybe also within spoiler tags) but it did get rather uncomfortable. I had only just came back to the thread to read the theories I've been hearing so much about - I haven't visited a solas thread since the first one before the game came out. I've been a Sera-threader exclusively for a while now... but I do love my lore theories and I do like solas... maybe not as much as they like Solas. It sucks that that's pretty much the first thing I run into on my first time back.
since then it's been pretty much exclusively theories. (very enjoyable reads, even if they are a bit outlandish)

I was a regular for a while, and things just got progressivly worse..

Boy..... women can get very pervy and weird at times just as men. Trust me, i've seen shite... :blink:

As have I..

I had Hercules and Xena dolls, big and small. B) (can't remember what else i had, my memory about my childhood is blurry at times)
My parents never bought me barbie ones bc i didn't want them, instead got me stuff i wanted like fake knives and such. :lol:


A+ parenting right hurr, i'm proud to have them tbh.

I never really had any dolls. whenever i got a girly present like ',y little pocket' or 'barbie, or a spice girls doll. It ended up given away or in the bin. ai loved Beast Wars, Pokemon, Ninja turtles, captain planet, and stuff like that.

Choose your Own Adventure books were indeed awesome, as were the Fighting Fantasy books. Definitely a precursor to my love of BioWare games...

Where I'm from, baby girls are always bought some kind of barbie doll. When my sister (who is now a college student) was about 10, she had at least 5 different barbie dolls, AND other related accessories.

 

I'm pretty sure she's still got them somewhere.

Never heard of Fighting Fantasy.. I would've loved that (I know who Steve Jackson is).

I always find it amusing that Americans talk about Legos... 

 

This is a Lego brick:

Lego is the name of the building system, not an individual brick. The plural of Lego brick is Lego bricks. If you have a lot of Lego bricks you have a lot of Lego. You do not have a lot of Legos. PSA ends. ;)

 

Oh and books, yeah. Of course books. When I wasn't making Lego spaceships or playing on my computer, I was reading. Roald Dahl, JRR Tolkien, Ursula Le Guin, Alan Garner, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C Clarke...

 

Legoooooooooooooooo!

 

The amount of Lego I still have... Oh...

 

As for books, I grew up on Harry Potter. That's why I learned to read, pretty much.

Turns out, it's handy.

I read some of those and also there was a series of kids detective stories I recall reading where you were given the clues and had to solve the mystery at the end. Wish I could remember the name of that series...

Legos, ugh! Not pleasant if you step on them.

Careful. There are two Steve Jacksons, and they even both wrote Fighting Fantasy books...

Hah.. how funny. I always thought it was the same dude. I know the Games Workshop version.

 

But also the famous story of the Steve Jackson involved in hacker activities.

Everyone should grow up reading that.

I read them in junior high. I probably should read them again as they were fantastic books. Thanks for mentioning them. I rarely see them pop up in convos these days.

I was so lowbrow back then. :P I could've read it (big brother had it).

 

Like I said, Choose Your Own Adventure books. And tons of comics.

I knew there was a reason I liked you... ;)

 

(Tangential question: Does the name Steve Novella mean anything to you?)

I've got an older model. I'll download them then as I still have tons of space on it.

What age were you guys reading Tolkien and Asimov?

 

As a kid, I just stared at the cool Michael Moorcock covers.. didn't read them. Then again, I was a lot more into visual aesthetics and drawing then.

I got bored of harry potter quickly. It was more or less the same thing over and over again.

 

Harry goes to school, fights a big bad'  goes home for holidays, and the next year the same thing happens, rinse and repeat. With some variances towards the end.

Funny thing about older Asimov. I re-read Pebble in the Sky the other month. It's a really progressive book for its time whose central theme is an allegory for 40s/50s America and racism, but man... The gender politics. The lead male character's love interest is a female scientist, which is good, but she's all "soft" and "fragile" and "womanly" and the like... It's definitely of its time...

I was read Tolkien by my Mother as a kid cause she was a huge fan and thought I'd love them. I did. I read them on my own in High School. I read Asimov in Junior High as well as CS Lewis (I might have started on the Narnia books a little earlier than that. Memory is hazy going that far back) and Ray Bradbury. Moorcock I didn't read until college.

I didn't go to college per se (not consistently), but I had this whole burst of energy and self-education around the same time. So I ended up catching up with stuff like this (along with a lot of typical classics.. Wuthering Heights, Monte Cristo, etc).

Yeah I read LotR and Asimov as an early teenager, if I recall correctly. I'm not sure exactly. I read The Hobbit at a slightly younger age, I think
