No, my life is very comfortable. I live in one of the most politically stable places on earth (Australia, the economy is going great, I have my own home, I am in no danger of starving, I have access to the internet, I suffer from no diseases, I have no problems with my family, I'm not in danger of being mugged on the street (low crime where Iive), I have job prospects and I have Giant Bomb.  
 
Sure, I'm not considered "wealthy", but my life is extremely comfortable. Considering how my life could have turned out, I am extremely lucky.

No, I do not - odds are, there are probably quite a number of people you would be happy with in a relationship - it's just that once you find someone you are happy with, you have no incentive to find anyone else (if you adhere to a monogamous relationship). There is no one "perfect" person for you - not only does everyone have flaws, but if you haven't dated every single person on earth, you cannot make the claim that they are the "only one". 
 
You might be very happy in a relationship, but there is NO WAY TO KNOW if you wouldn't be happier in another, or less happy. So stick with what you have if you're happy and don't worry about silly things like finding "the one".

Well, after making hundreds of them, they are starting to run out of ideas. There are only so many designs you can have without resorting to eldrich-horror designs. Remember, this is a game for kids - they have to look a bit "kiddy" to appeal to that core audience.  
 
Everyone says how awful they look, and I partially agree. But I would suspect that designing new pokemon is a bit difficult, especially since hundreds of designs already exist. Cut them some slack jack.

Hah! I love the poster image. Che's probably turning in his grave, having his image being used to promote a video-game. Now isn't that ironic? Someone fights capitalism his entire life, have his image and likeness used as a marketing tool due to its counter-culture status! It's hilarious.

Yep. I'll be buying this, and I'll pick up a 3DS too - when Nintendo releases an improved, smaller, brighter version of the 3DS one year later.  
 
Come on. Don't be an early adopter. You know an improved version is in the works, probably right now.

Who cares about the exact release date? It's not like they won't tell you officially. We know it's coming out soon, they had fully functional units at E3. I wouldn't be surprised if it came out this year, but I'm not going to be surprised if it doesn't.  
 
Of course, I'll buy one. When they release the smaller, improved version one year later, as you KNOW they will.

Oh well. I have no plans to host my own servers. There are plenty of internet groups and ISPs that do that for free for their customers anyway.  
 
Never had to start a server in BFBC2, so I'm not worried.  
 
Having said that, I'm tired of FPS games, so it'll be a good long while before I buy this one.

It's pointless to get too angry over on-line players being jerks. Either they ignore you or laugh at you, so what's the point? I do get steamed sometimes when I catch someone cheating, but the solution to that is to just leave the game. Due to all the anti-cheating software, like VAC, cheating isn't all that prevalent these days, so just leave the match and find another one. 
 
Getting angry for any reason other than cheating is just silly. If someone is being obnoxious on voice-chat, then mute them. If someone is constantly killing you with a "cheap" tactic, then either do the same tactic to them or admit that they're a better player. If your team sucks, constantly reminding them that they suck will not stop them from sucking so what's the point?  
 
The most annoyed I have ever been in a videogame, when it was not due to cheating, was in BFBC2 on some of the Rush maps, because some of those are straight-up imbalanced, either favouring the attacking side or the defending side. But that's just part of the game, and getting angry at it doesn't change the map. Sometimes I get slightly annoyed at snipers, but then again, a sniper class is available to every player. So what's the point in getting angry? Save your anger for big issues, like politics or government incompetence.
