It's a lot more common to not drive say in France, where public transportation has developed to the point it's actually incredibly serviceable. I know Paris is a special situation but a vast majority of people I know here don't know how to drive or do so no more than twice a year or so and generally they all hate doing it.

I get that for sure.

In this particular case though she is asking for rides all the time from everyone and is a total leech about everything.

Keane, I was saving this one especially for you.

You are my friend Terry,who plays in both games, a total hippie, but not the annoying kind. You like to tell stories and embellish them with things that may or may not always be true. You have three lovely daughters and are getting ready to move back to florida from illinois.

no, because quality and appreciation/affection are not the same thing

Everyone's interpretation of quality differs so for you to be able to say the BEST 5 movies of your lifetime implies you speak on behalf of your own generations tastes and views on quality which will differ greatly from person to person.

Your question is flawed taste FLAWED I SAY.

if you conflate liking something with how good it is ok but I thought you were an adult

But see , here's the thing.

You are asking an opinion based question. People will always tend to see what they like as being of a higher quality than it may actually be.

Most of the time the things that people really like are good to them.

So yeah, I managed to try to argue my point without name calling.

So who is the adult?

Tremendous Taste posted:

Adults insult people all the time, usually while recognizing the difference between "like" and "good"

You are missing the point entirely.

My five favorite movies are also the ones I think are best.

Because apparently best means something different to me.

My list of Best movies and favorite movies would be the same because they are my favorite movies for a reason, because I like them the best.

They are the highest quality movies in my eyes.

So what you are asking for is the same thing.

Pig are you seriously telling me you've never liked something and thought "I know this isn't great, but it appeals to me specifically"

Have you ever recommended somebody something and skipped over stuff you knew was something specially you'd like?

No.

If I like something I will recommend it to anyone.

Quality IS appeal to me.

I haven't made a list because I couldn't possibly narrow it down to five.

The only N64 games I have ever played were super mario 64 and goldeneye so, I mean I don't have a very big frame of reference.

But my favorite video game soundtrack of all time was Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross (What chrono cross lacked in being as good as chrono trigger it made up in spades by its great soundtrack.)

These are my favorite selections from each.

Chrono Cross OST is the music I play when I play Civ V.

I own an actual physical cd of it that I got as a special which came with my copy of chrono cross.

It's very good for when I just wanna relax and have some light music in the background.

I once saw this pickup truck that was plastered with bumper stickers and even like stuff that was printed out and taped to the back windows that was all about how psychiatrists are killing the children and how psychiatrists have agendas.

There was also tons of anti abortion pictures of aborted fetuses.

I called it the tinfoil truck.

Right now my character in my pathfinder game on Saturdays is a Human Neutral Evil Oracle with the "Waves" Mystery who just took a level of the "souleater" prestige class it's a pirate game in the skull and shackles adventure path.

On Mondays I also play a Human Lawful Good Cleric in the Rise of the Runelords modules who was raised by dwarves and is a cleric of the dwarven crafting god.

How did yall meet your d&d groups?

I worked at chick fil a when I was like, 18 and I met a guy there who's brother ran a dnd game.
So I met a guy named terry there who became my best friend.

So that game faded away but terry and I still hung out and then one day he joined a game at his job that someone was running, and it was that group that I got invited to and still play with to this day.

I've known most of these guys for like 13 or 14 years now.
