This feels like a joke/troll thread. On the off chance it is not, I have some advice.

First of all, take a break from College, but think long and hard before you join the military; it's a serious commitment, though an honorable one. Given your personality so far I am not sure if it would be a good fit for you, or maybe it would be a really good fit for you in the sense it would do you good and give you skills you may be currently lacking.

Either way, if you are feeling burned out from college and this is, say, your first year, take a break, give it some time and decide what you want to do with your life. A college degree is not required to be successful in life, but it will help you dramatically to find a good, well paying job.

Whatever you decide to do, good luck.

Just wait for the next DSM. It wasn't that long ago homosexuality was considered a mental illness. Being transgender will follow suit. A potential medical condition, yes. Mental illness no, it just leaves many more prone to mental illness.

I can't tell if you're serious or not. I believe I've heard that wanting to be the opposite gender can be considered a mental illness (no idea what this disorder/mental illness is called), just as undergoing the transgender procedure can be considered a solution to it. I disagree on both counts, but again I have nothing against it either way.

The idea of a medical procedure you intentionally pay for and bring upon yourself as a 'potential medical condition', though, is comedy gold. The only reason it would leave someone prone to 'mental illness' is if it causes people to avoid them and make them feel bad, or worse be the target of harassment, verbal or physical. I am sorry if this happens to people, but ultimately people who choose to go through with this already realized it could happen. That certainly doesn't make it good or right, but it does mean that the individual made a choice and does not deserve special treatment because of complications they knew were possible.

Basically, this isn't something you are born with, nor is it it a complication from a medical procedure to save your life, correct a physical disability, nor is it a treatment for disease, illness, or physical injury. It's a procedure people undergo because they desire it, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it, but willfully undergoing it with no direct need to do it, does not cause you to be under a 'medical condition'. Sorry.

PS: I am only referring to 'mental illness' from undergoing the procedure, which is ludicrous, I am not referring to physical complications which absolutely are relevant.

But humanity have had homosex for thousands of years, how is it not natural?

Whether that is natural or not is ultimately debatable; given that it is a natural urge for some, I'll swing towards yes, it is natural. However, as a species it was obviously intended that reproduction occur to ensure species' survival. This too, is not rocket science.

I've only read a few of the posts in here and already it feels like a big support group trying to feel better about things that are not issues. It doesn't matter whether or not what you want to do is 'natural', there are plenty of things humans do that is 'unnatural'. Homosexuality and transgender is neither special nor offensive to sane people, it only becomes offensive when people blow it out of proportion and make it a big deal when it isn't.

My two cents on this strange topic.

Driving a car was not natural 150 years ago.

If cars existed 150 years ago, people would have been able to drive them just fine. What does this have to do with anything, let alone the topic at hand?

Because it doesn't occur naturally.

This isn't rocket science. There's nothing really wrong with people that want to do this, but it is scientifically unnatural for humans whether you wish for it to be or not. It's not an insult or bash against them, it's simply a fact.

You can accept it or not, but it will never change the fact that it is ultimately true.

I don't doubt that it was influenced by it in some ways, the crosses on the NES Zelda shields attested to that.

The thing is, it was never relevant, and outside of this thread I've never seen it discussed in my life.

Be honest here, do you really care about this topic?

I'll give you my honest opinion. I don't like real-life religions directly placed in fantasy settings, since it makes no sense at all. Indirect references to it are fine, in fact excellent when done well (see Lord of the Rings, for instance); but Zelda is nowhere near deep enough for that -- it's a great game, not a philosophical wonder.

As far as I am concerned, it was never directly implied, let alone stated, so it never truly had Christianity in it to begin with. The closest reference was the Sanctuary in Link to the Past, which wasn't even called a "Church". It just was themed after one.

Bored, I'll play along briefly. Heal Switch, hurt N64.

N64 controller is total shit; always was, always will be.

The Switch pro controller is the best controller I've ever handled in my life. No idea why anyone would bash it, unless they've never laid hands on one before and just are salty about the console in general.

PS: N64 is now down to 1. Kill it please, so I can leave this thread satisfied.

You can't have a 10 minute game without replayability.

You can't have any game with no replayability whatsoever.

I will tell you what happens next; the universe implodes because you defied the laws of the universe and broke physics. Why did you do it?

It breaks even further, because this game could not have gotten 10's because it would have immediately destroyed all of existence upon creation.

I think it's less that people hate social justice warriors, and more that they hate arrogant and obnoxious people in general.
