However it is primarily a cultural phenomenon, it's simply spread to the rest of the world as part of the US cultural zeitgeist and near-hegemony.

My interaction with YouTube is pretty much the search bar at the top. I generally only go to YouTube when there is something specific that I want to watch/listen to: a specific song or video, etc. So there's little reason for me to subscribe to anything.

The game has several different possible endings depending on your choices. The short story of course has only one ending: very depressing one that is the title of the story.

One of the few near perfect adaptations of a short story or novel into a game. Harlan Ellison was notoriously difficult to work with at times, but this one they were able to do a great job.

I remember watching a few episodes of this show as a kid. I specifically remember the episode where they played Dragon's Lair, because given the very short play time the contestants had for the game, there were really only a few possible choices that everyone got correct and so they all had the same score...

Glad I backed up all my reddit posts, comments, etc., a few weeks ago

This is crazy, yo.

Crazy good, yes, but definitely crazy.

Started around age forty about 7 years ago. Just got shodan in December, then broke my leg a few weeks later :( Still recovering, hoping to try to get back on the mat this fall.

The Vorkosigan Saga by Bujold is considered to be some of the best space opera in the entire genre, definitely recommend giving it a try. Start with Warriors Apprentice if Shards of Honor isn’t to your liking.

This might be the first time I’ve ever seen Starship Troopers defined as space opera, it pretty much kickstarted the military scifi genre.

I've been slowly working my way through Stargate, midway through season 3 right now. It's almost refreshing how shamelessly they reuse old Star Trek plots and tropes, but it kind of works because the show doesn't seem to take itself as seriously as Star Trek does either.

If you truly believe in jury nullification, you won't mention it to the judge or prosecutor though...
