Top 5 Calvin & Hobbes Quotes

5. Calvin: History is the fiction we invent to persuade ourselves that events are knowable and that life has order and direction. That’s why events are always reinterpreted when values change. We need new versions of history to allow for our current prejudices.

4. Calvin: Trick or treat!
Adult: Where's your costume? What are you supposed to be?
Calvin: I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet, raised to an alarming extent by Madison Avenue and Hollywood, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak. [Next panel, walking away eating candy] Am I scary, or what?

3. Calvin: "Why waste time learning, when ignorance is instantaneous?”

2. Calvin: Isn't it strange that evolution would give us a sense of humor? When you think about it, it's weird that we have a physiological response to absurdity. We laugh at nonsense. We like it. We think it's funny. Don't you think it's odd that we appreciate absurdity? Why would we develop that way? How does it benefit us?
Hobbes: I suppose if we couldn't laugh at things that don't make sense, we couldn't react to a lot of life.
Calvin: (after a long pause) I can't tell if that's funny or really scary.

1. Calvin: God put me on this earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now I am so far behind that I will never die.

I prefer baldur's gate 1. Reasons: Wilderness exploration, non-overpowered pcs, less straightforward story builds mystery with great reveal at the end, feels somehow more realistic and less power gamey.

BG2 was more city focused, Wizards were op with a catalog of cheese spells like insta death and time stop, story consists of find the bad guy who stole imoen, totally geared towards power gamers.

Edit - throne of bhaal was great though

throne of bhaal was great though

Throne of Bhaal was total garbage. Almost every fight was about spamming waves of weak enemies at you, the boss/twist (was it even supposed to be any kind of surprise?) was lame as fuck and that's saying a lot considering what an emo edgelord Irenicus was, and the linearity/arrangement was SNES JRPG-tier. I only install it for Watcher's Keep.

Nothing from Thunder and Lightning?

Well the stuff that sells well anyway. I have had some pretty good American IPA's and microbrewery stuff... oh and Samuel Adam's Boston Lager is probably one of my favourite beers actually. But I still won't forgive you for Budweiser and Coors.

Ah Tenent's Super... foul as fuck, but it sure does get you drunk.

Nothing from Thunder and Lightning?

Thunder and Lightning is cool and interesting to see Thin Lizzy go in a almost metal direction, but even the best songs on that album don't make the cut here.

1. Muchas Veces
2. Rock 'N' Roll Outlaw
3. The Mob Goes Wild
4. The Incomparable Mr. Flannery
5. The Dragonfly

Yes, they're formulaic but very coherent. Albums like s/t or even Blast Tyrant consist of fillers whereas ER and PW don't. The Mob Goes Wild would be 6th in my ranking and I prefer The Elephant Riders to The Dragonfly. Incomparable Mr. Flannery does nothing for me, Gravel Road or Burning Beard are much better.
