    Right now I am suppose to be doing college transfer apps on a Saturday evening.  It is at this point in my life that I realized what my life has peaked to be so far, to be lonely procrastinating loser waiting to die in a coffin.  So while I wait to die a lonely death to be realized 2 weeks later after the fact and continue to debate my friend on the safety  issues of digesting Aspartme, I got bored and decided to do some searching on all thing Final Fantasy 8 related.  It all started when I watched the review for The Spoony One who was doing a review on FF8, which he has called complete ape shit crap.  Wait till KaosAngel watches his videos.
     
      

      
      The First thing that struck out was the voice.  When I was first heard the narrator, I thought the person was some 13 year old who just hit puberty.   When you start listening to the narrator's comment, those were statements a flameboyant gay man would say.  Especially when the narrator starts going off talking about her dresses and talking about their fashion sense..  But then statements such as "C'mon, who doesn't love a woman with a whip?" that make the narrator seem straight .
     
    However, I am still misled.  That is a woman.  So that got me thinking, if we used words such as Beautiful, Gorgeous, Pretty and Sexy in replacement, would it provide a different impression of someone?

    @Godwind: I don't get it... 
     
    Are you asking if a different vocabulary would give a different impression? 
     
    .... 
     
    I certainly hope you're the type of person that notices vocabulary...

    1) It sounded like a woman from the very beginning. 
    2) Even if it was a guy I don't think there would be anything funny about it.
    3) The video is actually fairly well made.

    This just feels like a guy who's low on the totem poll trying to assert there's still someone beneath them, this thread.

    Everytime I think back and wonder if I was too harsh on my feelings towards FF X. I hated it, but I thought maybe I was expecting something drastic from FF 7,8,9 due to going to new hardware. Then someone posts that tidus video and my hatred is reaffirmed.

    I didn't laugh, but i was disgusted. That was horrible, what horrible choices. Though the number 1 really does disqualify everything in the vid.
