| Topic | Has a book ever changed your life? |
| Joelypoely 12/27/19 10:58:55 PM #13 | Yes, plenty of them. I can't really single out just one of these. Moral Letters to Lucilius - Seneca The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims - Arthur Schopenhauer The Essential Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson Notes from Underground - Fyodor Dostoyevsky The Will to Believe, and Other Essays in Popular Philosophy - William James Self-Control: Its Kingship and Majesty - William George Jordan The Wisdom of Insecurity: A Message for an Age of Anxiety - Alan Watts --- |

| Topic | Have you ever attended a concert by a major music artist or gone |
| Joelypoely 12/24/19 4:50:08 AM #18 | Absolutely know what you mean. One of the final things I'm still learning are the many names of the various fielding positions. Probably one of the quickest ways to learn is to watch a T20 or an ODI world cup. The commentary of these events is usually aimed at a general audience and they do a great job of explaining what is going on. Test cricket is the one which makes things quite complicated with the addition of declarations and more advanced fielding setups according to the state of the pitch. --- |
| Topic | Have you ever attended a concert by a major music artist or gone |
| Joelypoely 12/24/19 4:17:35 AM #16 | 1 basketball game, about 5 soccer games, about 35 cricket games and about 40 rugby games 6 concerts (best artists I've seen live were Black Veil Brides, Korn, Rise Against, Fat Freddy's Drop) --- |
| Topic | What console should I get? |
| Joelypoely 12/24/19 3:52:41 AM #3 | Depends on the exclusives you're interested in (and maybe whether your old gamertag carries over). The Xbox One and PS4 aren't too different, not sure why Xbox gets such a bad rap this generation. I would have gotten a PS4 (to be able to play online with a friend who has one) but went for an Xbox One instead for the Forza Horizon series. You could make a good argument for the Switch too, especially if you're interested in the Mario games. --- |

| Topic | Happy 10th birthday to Final Fantasy XIII |
| Joelypoely 12/18/19 4:29:47 AM #16 | Xiahou Shake posted... XIII is a piece of poop, but XIII-2 is a top Final Fantasy. I was shocked to discover this! Interesting, my opinion is the exact opposite. XIII is my tied third/fourth favourite (along with VIII) but XIII-2 felt too convoluted with the time travel plotlines (although the addition of capturing monsters was awesome). --- |

| Topic | Last time you read a 1,000 page plus book? |
| Joelypoely 12/16/19 2:13:37 AM #36 | The World as Will and Representation about a year ago. It's one of those books so brilliant you keep coming back to it. Oh never mind it's only about 700 pages apparently. I guess if you combine both volumes together that counts, 1400 pages. --- |

| Topic | I can understand mens and womens sports but... |
| Joelypoely 12/09/19 12:58:55 AM #4 | In terms of chess, what I find absolutely incredible is that the top rated woman is approx. the 169th (URS) best player in the world. I've been watching the latest womens' tournament being held in Monaco recently. It was pretty disappointing to find out that most of the players competing there are 'only' about the 300th-800th best players in the world (of course that's still a worthy feat to achieve). As someone who is reasonably new to chess I assumed these top women I was watching were in the top 100-200. Really fascinating that there is such a huge divide between men and women at the very highest level. --- |
