How do these go together?
Primarily was copy-pasting past opinions of mine from another forum. But if you want to know how it goes together, think of any debate you get yourself involved in with someone online and that you get frustrated with your opposition when they find your argument to be morally objectionable.

These are facts, not opinions. There's plenty of studies explaining the different choices men and women make that influence their wages, and patriarchy/sexism has nothing to do with them. It's mostly to do with what degrees men and women ar egetting, the amount of time men and women work, women being less likely to negotiate their wage. Check this video with sources in the comments for a more detailed and informed analysis:

Funny that you posted this video because I already watch it, but I listed what I said as an opinion because some ignorant people in the world would like to debate that as opinions because backfire effect and that the existence of the gender pay gap may exist in other parts of the world.

I don't excuse a SMBX episode's flaws simply because it uses SMBX. You wouldn't want me to lessen my expectations of your episode right?

Here is another one: I think that Call of Duty is overrated.

Don't think I just hate it because I can. I have reasons.

Call of Duty is the same concept no matter which way you look at it.
You're in a war, you have a gun, you shoot people/NPC.
PVP? You are in zone, you have a gun, you shoot people.

I would give this game more justice. I would love to not have any games to hate.
But the fact that Activision won't make anymore concepts at least a tad bit foreign
to the it's predecessor, that'd be great. I've played the game a few times.
And all those times, I put down the controller. I never even bought the game
with my own money. I played it at a friends house because the game didn't
seem worthy of any cash I happen to have on me. Maybe I'd like it more if
it wasn't for the stupid 12 year-olds clogging the Xbox Live servers with their highish low annoying
voices screaming "I JUST DID A 360 NOSCOPE SWAG 420 BLAZE IT YOLO".


I will let go on CoD by saying this:

IGN, stop giving reviews of this game more than a 9.0. It makes you look like Activision
is paying some journalist from to give CoD a higher score so some stupid Father out there can buy it
for their stupid 12 year old son. TRY to review the gameplay and quality. REVIEW THE STOR- oh yeah.
CALL OF DUTY HAS NO STORY.

CoD does have a story, it's called the campaign. Three different companies make CoD games, and each company has their own CoD storyline.

Yes, COD is overrated. To me, they are all the same game basically. The fact that Activision and Co still charge over $30 for a 4 year old CoD is kinda stupid if you ask me. Also, they do have a plotline, each of them do.

They're just all...very very....similar.

The FNAF fan base is hated on WAAAAAY too much. But they can also be REAAAAALLY annoying.

To be fair actually, NSMBW has been around for *Googles* 6 years, and for 4-5 of those years, it had been $50 in USD.
Now, it's $20-$30, which is cool, but what took that long? The only thing I can tell between NSMBW and NSMBU is graphics, enemies, and ONE new power-up. And I think as group I say this, NINTENDO, put the "New" crack down and make us something original and, ironically, NEW. The NSMB series falls under the same category of CoD, but NSMB still manages to be fun. The only REAL problem I find with the NSMB series is CLICHE after CLICHE after CLICHE. Mario 3D World happen to be fun, reminding me of SMB2. (shut the hell up with the doki doki panic thing I know) But we don't need more Mario 3D, or "New" Mario's at all. What we need is another Sunshine-like experience. Different, yet fun to a general group of people.

I think it is moreso than not. Some regard Mario 3 as one of the greatest games ever created.

I've been working for about half an hour to forty-five on this little "Opinion Fight" in Note Pad, much like my other long written posts. I hope this is good, and if you guys have anything to disagree with me on, go ahead and tell me. I don't bite.

I like Super Mario World for several reasons. I think it was the best game on the Super Nintendo, and was very disappointed playing it's sequel, SMW2: Yoshi's Island. I think this game introduced many game play mechanics than it's predecessors, and it makes it my favorite Mario game of all time.

The spin jump is a great example. What button do you press the most other than the jump button in the game?
This button. When I speed run I spin jump, when I'm in castles I spin jump, when I forget to map the controller buttons correctly I don't mind. I'll just use the spin jum..and I forgot to map that button, too.

Throwing shells and mecha-koopas (the robot things in the final level) upwords. It made room for interesting level design. (example being Yoshi Island 1, when you throw the shell upwords at a block to get the 1-up that's inside of it)

Yoshi isn't a gameplay feature for Mario/Luigi, but Yoshi is my favorite power-up, and I think alot of people would agree with me. It's design is cute, it makes levels easier (duh), and let's all be honest, we have all at one point thrown Yoshi down a pit for that extra boost, right?

If I had any reason to call Mario 3 good, it would be the sprites (All-Stars version). I'm using SMB3 sprites in my project (As well as the SMB3 expanded pack) right now because they look amazing. SMW's graphics look very cartoony, and is not my preferred graphic style. (The Hack Super Mario World: Enchanted fixes that problem though) I will admit though, Bowser's clown cart is one of my favorite sprites in the game, as well as my favorite Boss Battle of all time next to NSMBW's boss battle. SMB3's boss battle was very easy, and I was UBER disappointed when I played him. I beat all those levels for a battle where Bowser defeats himself in attempt to kill me. It's like a dog jumping into the Grand Canyon because I threw a steak down it.

I also think the Super Mario World Hacking community has shown off some kickass level design and sprite edits, so that's another major reason to love this game. Not that it's Nintendo approved, I just thought it would be nice to throw that out one there.

My favorite Hacks are "Super Demo World", "Windows 98", "Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, Lost Levels and World Enhanced", and "MARIO" aka "MARIO - Strangest SMW hack ever"

May I have you guy's opinions on why you think SMB3 is a better game? I don't mind opposite opinions. #DuckYouFanboys #SinceWhenDidWindowsHaveAutoCorrect

EDIT:

Here is the patch to SMW Enhanced, I just got a PM asking for it. Find and patch the ROM yourself. I don't want to get a board warning:

Just saying, YI isn't really the sequel of SMW. In fact, I even heard that its name should've been "Super Mario: Yoshi's Island" and after the developers changed it to what it is now for some reason.
Also, Yoshi is a gameplay feature (Everything with which the player interacts are a gameplay feature, from what I know), it's just not a power-up.

Agreed, the final boss of SMB3 was even easier than some boss battles. There's even a way to not get almost of all the flames Bowser spits. This doesn't mean SMB3 was bad, though, it too introduced lots of new things like new enemies, platforms, autoscroll levels and other things. A bit like SMW, that's probably why some likes more SMB3 than SMW.
