So, question: Why is there no cartoons.stackexchange.com?

Ronan Forman

@ShotgunNinja I think there was something in Area51, but never went anywhere.

Do you mean drawing or watching/reading cartoons anyhow?

Shotgun Ninja

I mean, similar to the Anime/Manga SE site, but not localized to Japanese content.

Watching and enjoying cartoons.

Oh nice. My question is still the second-to-highest voted question on that site.

Ronan Forman

@ShotgunNinja Is enjoying mandatory?

OrigamiRobot

@RonanForman I got where I am on here by hating games.

StrixVaria

Wait. Is enjoying games a thing that can happen? I just play them because I thought self-inflicted torture was required by law.

Wipqozn

@StrixVaria It is.

I'm pretty goddamn pissed that browsing bioshock-infinite ruined a major plot point for me. Just putting that out there.

FEichinger

@OrigamiRobot So, go hunt!

@Brant This is why you don't check questions for new releases you haven't finished yet.

OrigamiRobot

@Brant If you're worried about spoilers, ignore the tag.

Brant

I said browsing the tag, not clicking on questions about the game's ending. I'm not stupid.

StrixVaria

7:14 PM

@Brant Studies show that you enjoy things more when you know the ending before you start. So there's that.

Shotgun Ninja

@RonanForman Mandatory? What are you talking about?

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria Agree. I become much more invested when I know how it ends because I want to know what events lead to it.

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot One big exception was Ender's Game, where the twist at the end literally punched me in the face.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria I'm not saying I don't appreciate an unexpected twist.

Sconibulus

There was a twist at the end of Ender's Game?

StrixVaria

7:17 PM

One thing that's really useful about being spoiled is that you can see all the foreshadowing on your first read/watch without having to waste the time reading/watching a second time.

Q: How does difficulty inscrease in the arcade mode?

I'm still playing the arcade mode in "medium hard" difficulty, a rather easy one. Why ? Because the last opponent and the special "rival" opponent ("Now, fight you rirval") seem super hard to beat, while all the previous fighters are simply ridiculeous... Does anyone know how the difficulty ...

Flapjack (oat bar)

A flapjack, cereal bar, or granola bar is a sweet tray-baked oat bar made from rolled oats, butter, brown sugar and golden syrup. The item is known as a "flapjack" in the United Kingdom and Ireland and as a "cereal bar" in Australia and New Zealand. In other countries, including Canada, the United States, and South Africa, such products are referred to as "granola bars". In these countries, "flapjack" refers to pancakes, the original meaning of the term. Overview In the UK, Ireland, and Newfoundland a flapjack is a baked bar, cooked in a flat oven tin and cut into rectangles, made ...

> Critics have pointed out that a square flapjack has more sharp corners than a triangle shaped one.
