As a man, if I was really drunk and had sex with someone and then in the morning was disgusted by the act could I then claim rape?

I fail to see the difference between that and your example using a woman.

Of course as a man I would be laughed out of court.

Also I find the implication that a drunk woman having sex is any different than a drunk man to be degrading to women. You are implying that women are weak and if they do something stupid they aren't able to take the responsibility for it.

Yeah except that with street drugs (in particular heroin and morphine analogues) you can get dramatically different doses. Shoot up an especially pure substance and you can immediately OD. No one buys a bottle of wine and dies because it's extra potent.

The same can be true of purity of stimulants. Cocaine and amphetamine overdoses can cause cardiac arrest.

Besides if you are partying like Ozzy you probably don't just use one substance at a time. Using cocaine and alcohol at the same time can be very dangerous. You can get very high blood alcohol levels without feeling anywhere near as drunk.

I'm not trying to downplay alcohol or tobacco but it's hardly fair to say that other drugs aren't as dangerous.

Except that every class gets hit with the nerf or buff bat over time. So rerolling to be the uber flavor of the week ends up being a waste of time when the inevitable nerf comes along. I'm not talking about huge nerfs, oftentimes a single talent or ability that is overpowered can have a huge effect.

Some of the current item level 264 crafted items are superior to anything outside of 25 man heroic ICC (which a lot of people will never see outside of lootship). Of course there are only worthwhile recipes for a couple of item slots per tier, so yeah you can't deck yourself out in crafted items alone.

Healing addons make for a much more streamlined experience but the in game raid frames can be used with mouseover macros as well. Yes, this requires something beyond the default ui, but it's not a full addon. Clique essentially makes this even easier to implement so there isn't really any reason to roll your own macros.

Instead of using key modifiers you mouseover the persons raid frame and press one of your ability keys. I prefer Healbot myself but I know healers that solely use mouseover macros and the default raid frames.

Uh, at least on the healing side patches for stuff like Vuhdo and Healbot were available on patch day. You might have had to look for the cataclysm alpha/beta versions (which you would have used on the PTR) but they were there.

There are lots of violent zombie games on the iPhone store. I'm not talking just cartoon ones but stuff like Zombie Infection.

Personally I don't agree with that. Back in my LAN party days Duke Nukem became the multiplayer game of choice because of all the unusual power ups. Rocket packs, shrink rays, fooling someone with the holo-duke = good times.

It didn't hurt that the system requirements were less severe than Quake either.

There is still a large gap in Apple's product line between consumer iMacs and professional Mac Pros. There is no consumer grade Apple computer that is very expandable or upgradeable in the sense an average Windows desktop is.

I don't think Apple really cares about that market segment. If they did have a decent i7 desktop that handled a large amount of memory it would cut in to their Mac Pro sales. A magazine publisher I used to work for is currently dealing with this now. They don't have the budget to replace their older PPC G5s. The IT department is actually trying to get them to use Mac Minis!

There was a 2003 adaption that was a failed pilot for the Riverworld series. While not one hundred percent faithful it did have many of the elements from the books including Mark Twain and the riverboat. I can't say it was very good.

I've avoided the 2010 version as I've heard it's worse.

I understand your point. It does seem that with guild leveling Blizzard wants to reinforce the importance of a guild over pugging. This comes sort of contrary to the dungeon finder and ICC nerf policy.

Personally I don't do random PUGs. I'm in a top 10 guild for my server and generally either raid with them or with invites to other top tier guilds.

I don't think Blizzard will go back to the earlier strategy where the last 20% of content was only ever seen by 1% of their subscribers (i.e. Sunwell in BC). Odd are they will nerf the raids like they have done to make them more PUG/casual friendly. Keeps the hardcore happy pushing their first kills and eventually allows less skilled or dedicated players to experience the content.

I guess that depends. I've been raiding two nights a week for three hours a raid this expansion and killed everything except the heroic version of the Lich King encounter. It's certainly a hobby but six hours a week doesn't seem like a huge investment.

And no I don't spend hours farming for materials. A good guild where everyone contributes means no one individual has to spend hours and hours getting mats for raid consumables.

Patch 4.01 is going to hit soon (estimated within two weeks). This patch overhauls the game mechanics in preparation for the Cataclysm release. If I were in your shoes I would at least wait until 4.01 so you don't have to bother with learning LK mechanics only to find your spells have changed two weeks later.

After Cataclysm hits the LK expansion is likely to drop in price. If you haven't hit level 70 yet just play the Burning Crusade content for now and upgrade later, IMO.

Pushed back by a year and a half? The only date information given was that it was on track for 2010. Based on the release times of Burning Crusade and Lich King the best guess was that Cataclysm would be released around two years after LK. The December 7th date is less than a month off of two years since LK came out - 11/13/08.

Yes flying is available at level 60 now.
