		Anime/Cartoon recommendations
		
		Both of the Avatar series, but definitely the first one. I heard Attack on Titan was pretty good, but I haven't seen it myself. Girls und Panzer is great if you're into history and want something silly. Neon Genesis Evangellion is also a good sci-fi anime.

		The Last Airbender? Or The Legend Of Korra?
		
		Overall I like The Last Airbender better, but judging based on seasons... The first season of Korra was better than the first season of The Last Airbender and the second season of The Last Airbender was better than the second season of Korra (it wasn't that good to be honest, especially with a shitty animation studio doing half the episodes). The Third Season of The Last Airbender was perfect and I highly doubt Korra will be able to come close. Character wise, the only good main character is Asami, everyone else is an ass. Amon is one of the best villains in history. Especially being voiced by Steve Blum and having a complex backstory, as well as being right about everything (come on, benders always pick on non benders). What I want in all honesty is an entire season about Avatar Wan.

		Amon's "Post a Classical Piece a Day"
		
		Sorry for neglecting this thread, lets try to get back on track by celebrating the cold with beautiful music and creepy masks. Vivaldi's Four Seasons: Winter Classical Music is a term that's extremely general. It's really meant to describe music that brings back images of ancient Greece and Rome. Technically, most "Classical" composers don't fit the term, however, it's what stayed. I can't describe what's defined as classical music the best, but you can read about it here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_music

		Opinion on Pewdiepie
		
		Pewdiepie is the best thing that ever happened to the gaming community. He proved that the games industry is something to be reckoned with, and that the sheer number of people who love video games will continue to rise. Also, he showed that you can run a successful gaming channel on youtube without ever once playing Call of Duty or other "mainstream" (shoot me if I sound like a hipster) games. Finally, his contributions to charity reveal that youtube and the internet as a whole can do a lot of good for a lot of people. Also, these charities remove a lot of the negative stigma that gamers get. Fixed your post. You're entitled to your own opinion. I can see why people wouldn't like his style, sense of humor, game selection, or other legitimate reasons to avoid watching his channel. However, I there is absolutely no reason to hate him as a person. He's probably the most genuine person on youtube. The only reason why people hate him as a person is a hint of jealousy and a hint of trying to oppose whatever is popular. Put it this way, nobody hated pewdie when I first subscribed to him when he only had around 200,000 subscribers. It's really only when he hit 1 million when the haters showed up. As for the rape jokes... 1. They were never intended to be taken literally. He only said them because of the appearance of the monsters that are attack him in game 2. He removed many of the videos where he made rape jokes and made formal apologies at least two or three times.

		Between Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo, who's your favorite?
		
		None of them. Sony is hypocritical and often has no idea what they are doing, Nintendo is extremely egotistical, and Microsoft is that creepy uncle that gives you nice stuff but that only makes him creepier. Valve is the best gaming company. They know how to make a profit without screwing over their costumers, they have the best online network (Steam), and have literally never made a bad game.

		What our future has in store.
		
		It's not impossible, but total extinction is so unlikely that it's almost redundant to consider it a possibility. Even still, nuclear war is among the lesser things that are likely to cause a total extinction event. This blog explains the likelyhood of possible extinction scenarios in laymans terms. http://commonsenseatheism.com/?p=14936 Essentially, being killed off by robots seems to be the only realistic scenario within the next 200 years. And even that would be rather unlikely. Total extinction of humanity? So improbable it's essentially impossible. Lots of people getting killed? Likely, but not enough to doom the future of the species.

		Only rational people have enough of them to make a significant impact. The fact they havent been used yet confirms this. Even if a rouge nation or group get them, one nuke won't end the world.This isnt an action movie or a video game, people aren't intentionally looking for ways to start a war.

		What our future has in store.
		
		The maker of this forgets that humans wouldn't let half this stuff happen or would find a way around it. Assuming there have been no major regressions in technology, Earth will be but one planet in an galactic human empire. This whole chart assumes civilization completely collapses in a thousand years, but also that it never recovers. The first is possible but highly unlikely. Even in a very connected world, some regions may escape a calamity. The second is impossible because humans have always bounced back before, and we will do it again. Only our total extinction or the rise of a new dominant species on Earth would be able to prevent a recovery. Of course, the end of the universe would screw everyone and everything over. Only traveling to another universe/dimension (assuming those exist) would be able to save us.

		do i suck at video games? (sry again you the prob)
		
		Single Player games/modes let you change the difficulty for a reason, everyone is different. It doesn't even have to be skill related. I have several friends that are much better at games than I am yet they sometimes pick the easy option. Why? Because they'd much rather have things easy-going and relaxing. They have plenty of other games to give them a challenge. I always play on the hardest difficulty available, not because I am good, but because I like challenges in my games. I get a sense of accomplishment finally beating that impossible level on a harder setting. Also, it's nice getting the little treat a lot of games provide if you beat it on the hardest setting. There's nothing to be ashamed of. If you suck you suck, if you just want to take it easy that's fine too. If I avoided games Im bad at, I'd probably not play a lot of games.
