I am a fickle binge gamer. If I get a game I love, I will play it incessantly, hours at a time, days in a row, loving it. I will ignore online communities and activites for a while, watch less TV (if any), and read less. I may then go on an internet binge, playing no games at all for weeks at a time...

Ohhh! Ah wouldnae take that affae him!

If I was offended, it would imply that I thought there was something wrong with being a homosexual, which there isn't, and the kilt does resemble a skirt, so I guess I should just chuckle at the corked hat wearing koala felcher!

But at least I avoided mentioning that the corks on the stereotypical Australian hat was were they originally carried their butt plugs.
