You're moving into a new place, and can only bring 3 PC-Engine games....

[Necromancer]

But I still like to play video games. So I'm going to bring a few favorites with me. Bringing my whole collection would, to me, be against the spirit of the pure environment and atmosphere that my muslim roomates are trying to maintain. Not because video games are bad, but because I think that my collecting addiction is not healthy and seeing a huge stack of games every day would remind me of it.

This makes me giggle, and I don't know why.  When are you selling off the rest of your collection?

THe only charities I support and donate to are those dedicated to helping animals and shelters that help find homes for homeless pets.

I'm in a similar boat.  I only donate to charities that take cats and dogs off the street, cook 'em up, and feed 'em to the homeless; and if I ever find an organization that does it the other way around, I'll donate to them instead.

[Sinistron]

if it was carts- I'd say Photograph Boy, R-Type, and Legendary Axe.
CDs I'd say Dracula X, Star Parodia, and Y's 1 & 2.
I'd change my mind if I really considered it I'm sure.

The first part of your statement makes me a sad panda.

I fully support and endorse the second, however, since homeless street scum are basically worthless tumors on the anus of humanity.

Necro, I don't know when I'm selling off the rest, if I decide to do so. Right now, I'm putting my stuff in boxes and I'm going to leave it at my dad's house for the time being.

[Kitsunexus]

Yeah I get the same feeling often, usually thinking how I should've spent less money on games and more money on charity.

Screw charity. The vast majority of money donated to charity goes to the administration of the charity, not to the people the charity is supposed to be helping. Invest in something worthwhile...like video games!

True, but it's best to give charity in person to those who need it though.

nat FTW.

The worst part of roommates is that they never have the same appreciation/consideration for your stuff as they do their own.  So they may play your games and toss the controller or leave CDs out of the case.

So if it were me in this situation, I'm taking a rugged and little PCE/Core system and 3 HuCards:
- Gunhed/Blazing Lazers
- PC Genjin 2/Bonk's Revenge
- Bomberman '93

My favorite three games overall, CD or Hu, actually 

But if I was brave enough to bring the Duo:
- Gates 4-in-1 (gets me the Bonk games, a high quality shooter, and the multiplayer classic Bomberman)
- Lords of Thunder
- either Gunhed or Kyuukyuu Tiger

Since it's school, no long RPGs for me.  Too easy to get sucked in and blow a shit ton of hours.

Hey charity isn't just limited to bums on the street, so that's good too.

[guyjin]

The only 'charity' I donate to anymore is the ACLU.

Hey, I'll donate to the Amorous Co-ed Lesbian University too, they make some of my favorite videos!

[GUTS]

The ACLU is 1/2 pure f*cking evil, and 1/2 good.  They really need someone with some common f*cking sense running operations, half the time I hear about them they're representing a pedophile, murderer, or related scum in some completely ridiculous case.

What if they're representing pedophile murderers, and by that I mean murderers of pedophiles? Wouldn't that be good?

[Necromancer]

Nope.  If they're dumb enough to get caught, then they don't deserve any help.

[malducci]

What are your three?

 Tricky Kick, that racing one for hucard (Big Run?), and Energy.

[spenoza]

My favorite charity is the EFF. Give to the EFF! Now! Do it!

Please?

It's not about the person or the crime, it's about the person's rights. Of course, that ends up getting into "what about the rights of the victim?" struggle, which always sucks. The ACLU tries to protect a person's right regardless of what they've done, and their basis is the upholding of the Constitution. I don't think that's evil whatsoever. Sure, they may fight to protect the rights of a complete scumbag, but the lines would blur if there weren't groups like the ACLU around. Before you know it, we'd end up with a "justice" system like in various third-world countries, where people are often butchered with government consent for stealing a loaf of bread because they're dirt-poor or vaguely and unintentionally insulting someone's mother.
