Comment violent games can be therapeutic (Score 1) 115

Violent gaming can provide a therapeutic release of anger that can benefit the players in real-life. Whenever a government blocks an activity that releases a tension, such as the gaming or prostitution, then statistics show a rise in bad activities that also release the tension, such as real violence, or sex crimes.

Comment How come (Score 1, Insightful) 1011

these idiots talk about carbon and not carbon dioxide? Does carbon monoxide warm the planet too? Or can we ignore chemistry and this is only about carbon? Ban pencils! I told one friend who is freaked about global warming to give up his soda pop. He said no:)

Comment dance (Score 1) 1354

As geeks can have anxiety about approaching women, a salsa or country dance class is ideal. It really helps if you see the same people week after week and practice social skills and greeting everyone. Generally you rotate and dance with everyone, and it is quite possible to meet people where you like each other on an energy level, without much need to talk at first, especially since the instructor will yell at you if you are talking too much. From here, you build confidence and nature works its magic.

Been there, doing it:)
