But no,seriously, I agree. Fucking little pricks think love means they enjoy the other's presence or something. Unless you're willing to do something drastic for someone, you can't even begin to say you love them. But on another note, it happens with adults too(albeit not as much.)
I'm American, so not knowing anything about soccer, I would fail and become a washout only to successfully manage the same team many years later to a championship and live happily ever after.

It was 2003, and I haven't played many games with karma systems. Also, as the evil character, you end up taking over the world.

Karma systems are just another way for users to customize their gaming experience. It is the same concept as making an avatar in an RPG.
I have not played many games with Karma systems, but my favorite by far is Star Wars: KOTOR. That karma system gave you bonuses to certain force powers depending on if you were good or evil, which was fun and cool.
That one had a karma system less arbitrary than most, and choices add a layer and depth to gameplay. It just seems pointless to have a demon for a character and still be expected to save the world.
Now, I appreciate a game recognizing me as a dickhead just as much as the next guy, but I have serious problems with it. And don't say they hardly feature in games, because they very highly feature in several games, in fact most games feature at least two endings depending on actions. The reason I dislike them is how arbitrary they seem to be. Take Fable, for instance. It changes your appearance and people's reactions to you. That's it. Every region is just as bright and cheery/blighted and depressed as they were before. I feel like I have no effect on the way the world is going. What does this have to do with you, you ask? I wish to hear your opinion, because I've got nothing better to do than this and watching Zero Punctuation.

That's cause Halloween IS Christian in origin.
I thought it was some Anglo-Saxon tradition to ward of evil spirits?
Something to that extent yes.
I was always under the impression that it was an ancient Celtic Druid holiday, and the Christians, as with Christmas and Easter(both had been pagan holidays), adopted the time slot so to speak.
I've always found that it was Christian. Do you have any proof of it being Celtic? Out of curiosity, because I'm not sure I could pull any proof of it being Christian out of my ass.
Well, generally Halloween( or All Hallow's Eve) was considered a time when spirits, goblins, etc. were about, so as Druids were more apt to believe in such a thing,
I just made the connection. Also, it did originate from Ireland I think. All of this is just speculation, but I'm pretty sure.

White people are generally the hairiest. Not Mexicans.

Awesome, just don't let it go out, or Sam will kill you.
Well, I did put it out, but I covered it with paper towel to minimize bacteria intrusion (rotting). About this "Sam" though; you will need to fill me in on that one.
Reference to the recent movie Trick 'R Treat. He kills people for disrespecting Halloween Traditions.

What do you expect? This is the reality of NG now.
Congrats, you're a douche. You only reinforced the message of their superiority by resorting to violence over nothing, so you're an idiot as well as a douche.
Seymour from FFX. Sure, he was insane, but he was forced to sacrifice his mother for an ancient tradition that was basically a bunch of bullshit. Not to mention he was 8ish.
Also, the Aeons.
