Holy lol, I just realized she's a "Psychology Expert", not a psychologist.

Don't fuck with Mike Haggar.

3 years of 7th grade, and a chronic habit of accepting everything you hear as truth.

They put SEX into this VIOLENT, 'M-rated' video game I've been letting my CHILD play!
There oughtta be a law!

Aren't you just the trolliest troll ever to troll.

Personally, what offends me the most is the fact that they're depicting aliens in the first place. If there was such a thing as an alien, don't you think it'd be mentioned in the Bible?

5 stars because I spent the entire time objectifying Miss Killjoy. What she needs is a good, stiff cock to loosen her up and set her straight.

No, the point is that this 'hardcore', 'pornographic' 'sex scene' is two minutes of fumbling around in the dark with a two second shot of a barely visible ass. It's as graphic as the sex in Golgo 13 for the NES.

billy is special.

completely fucking retarded kind of special.

You guys DO realize that a parent can only do so much, right?

Plus, it's important to draw lines in the sand for acceptable and unacceptable behavior in all aspects of life, because human nature and market forces dictate that without standards, the most shocking/stimulating new thing is going to get more attention and have a great chance at selling more units. Once the bar gets lowered, you have to deal with the next "new and exciting" thing. The sooner you draw those lines and say "we shouldn't accept this," the less likely you'll have to deal with something more dangerous and corrosive later.

I mean, it's not rocket science. We've just gotta take the time to draw that line in the sand and make a firm stand, and what's wrong with that? You can't be totally offended by taking moral stances, can you? It's not like we should just allow porn to seep into all aspects of life just for the sake of "freedom."

In other words, if we allow men to marry other men, we're eventually going to have to allow humans to marry other animals.

Of course, the problem here is: where do you draw the line? It doesn't do me much good if the line gets drawn in front of things I approve of, right? Why should this line be drawn in front of Mass Effect, which I'm cool with and would be fine subjecting my 13 year old children to? Why not draw it in front of, say, loli art? Furry webcomics? Clown-based rap music? Books by Hillary Clinton? Even if you reason that everything immediately over the line will still be consumed in mass quanties and so the line must be set well above the point you want moral and cultural degeneracy to "stop", surely you can think of a better drawing point than a blurry alien boob?

Besides, I think we could do with some more desensitizing violence and sexual objectification! Violence and aggression make children more pro-active, and pornography is empowering for women. We need less Dworkin and Lieberman, more Paglia and Rutten.

Hooker: no, but I believe that "relating to" pedophiles and lessening sentencing will be next.

EvilHomer: I set my bars high, baby. It's a pain in the ass, but with more absolutes there's less room for argumentation. Morality's always inconvenient.

This coming from a guy who thinks all women are sluts and that purity balls are the only way to keep their legs together.

Look, Billy, if this is what passes for 'hardcore pornography' or a 'graphic sex scene' right now then I think the moral decline isn't as steep as you think. In fact, we're pretty close to Hays Office regulations.

Your kids could watch daytime network television and see this exact degree of content on "Days of Our Lives". Why not 'draw the line' there?

Of course that's got nothing to do with the fact that a conservative blogger hooted a bunch of unbelievably out of the park lies, and Fox News is continuing where he left off.

Holy shit. I picked that because it's an absurd argument and you actually went along with it?

But "must" it be inconvenient? Why not set the bar at a moderate level, that still leaves plenty of room for fun, but dramatically increase the penalties for moral transgression? Say, looking at alien boob is OK, but rubbing one out to Japanese kiddie porn is grounds for a bullet in the head in the middle of the night? That way we'd have largely the same effects, leaving little to no room for argument, but "kosher" transgressions would be guilt-free, while "non-kosher" transgressions would reap what they deserve.

Y'know, just throwing it out there.

(P.S. isn't poeTV fun?)

EvilHomer: I love POEtv. It's like, the best place for me to kill time. And yeah... to be completely honest I don't really see TOO much wrong with having an alien boob, but I'm just taking the last 50 years into account, and how all the stuff that was horrifying in the 50's/60's is so commonplace now that people don't even think twice about it. THAT is what's guiding my thoughts. So I see something new come out in a videogame that DOES push boundaries, and I'm just thinkin' to myself that we should probably just nip it in the bud and end the debate right here. Seeeeeeee?

That doesn't mean I think you're totally wrong. Actually, I'd like to draw the line later and leave the alien boob alone, but recent history tells me otherwise. I'm a puritan, I guess :(

Hooker: I disagreed with your word-for-word argument, but I fundamentally agree with the structure in relation to other things. It's kinda like how we allowed straight promiscuity during the 60's, and then the gay-rights movement came next. It's "progression."

SSSSHHHHH! They might make us create an internet rating system if they catch on.

All 5 for your comment. Barbie kills innocence.

you don't even have to pick up the box, it's right there on the front

Yeah if only they'd gotten ahold of Final Fantasy Legend. Of course it's probably a lot harder to freak out about blurry gray pixels and numbers.

Leisure Suit Larry was so frustrating, I always wanted more.

Screw numbers, in Final Fantasy Legend, you could one-shot God with a chainsaw! (thanks to a bug)

I could never beat him legit :(
