Marty and the Doc are in the trailer -in a glimpse- and they are expansion pack material?
That is depressing.
 
Yeah, basically, Tell Tale games want to milk this for all it's worth.......

SS, it's important to note though that nothing happens in a vacuum. It's very hard, nigh, impossible perhaps, to tease out ONE thing in human existence/experience and say it is a thing unto itself that neither is impacted by nor impacts other things. So... You can think of yourself as a total Randian styled hero, independent of all things and individuals and a power unto yourself that never takes into account the opinions of others or is never impacted by how you feel you come off to others... But by my sights that would be LYING to yourself. A fair question is... Do you consider yourself a moral person? Now again, the uber-Libertarians types and Randians will say, "My own personal morality is not compromised by the esteem of other indivuals, ect." but again, I would call bovine excrement. Such things WILL impact your sense of self and play into your sense of morality. It's likely that your morality like a lot of other people is a mix both of your own views of morals as an end unto themselves AND also takes into account how others view you as well. A binary view of things is fine for computers, a sense of purity in all things is ok for DEAD things, but all living things that grow and change by their nature are not simply one thing or the other.

As always though... I expect you to ignore all this. :cwink:

You can PRETEND as though you are never influenced by what others think of you but that would be lying. It does factor into yours, mine, and most everybody else's psychological make up. Most people when it comes to their own morals aren't a power unto themselves. The esteem, real and imagined, of others does factor in. It's not just morality for morals sake, though that may be ideal. I want to be a good person for a mixture of both believing in morals for it's own sake, but also because I wish to make my family proud of me and not be seen as a garden variety anal canal by society at large. It's hard for most normal people to be able to tease how others view them and how they view themselves, and when that does happen in an individual... Yeah, many are called sociopaths, or at least REALLY selfish unbearable ass hats. :cwink:

I agree with you on that, but I just try my hardest to not let other people's opinion on me bring me down and change who I am. Like for example, small thing's like people making fun of me because of my Youtube, I just ignore but yeh there are some times where things like that can bring me down, but I just try to not let other bring me down, I like being myself and not changing for other people.

Well, but that IS different than saying YOU NEVER take others opinions into account. That's what I meant before by binary thinking. If in some cases YOU DO, well... Then you do. I am not saying to let the slings and arrows of what you feel is unfair thoughts about you bring you down, just that in fact in many cases the view that we think others have of us DOES come into play in shaping our personality and self view. In fact, it plays a BIG part. If you are in a relationship say, do you really think it's cool beans to just do whatever you wish and not take how you come off to the other person in the couple into account? Part of self awareness in general (which granted... Is often in short supply here on the Hype and the Internet in general) includes how you come across to others. Here's the deal... if a person really doesn't want to care how other people view them, then go off and live alone in the mountains. If you want to be a human being in a society, you need some kind of self awareness as to how you are. Plus... Nobody is perfect. There is such a thing as constructive criticism, even if it's something we ourselves don't want to hear about ourselves.

I get what you mean yes, for example with previous failed friendships I was told that I was clingy so now I am trying my hardest to not be clingy/annoying so in a few ways yes, there is always room to improve, but when people judge stuff like my morals, hobbies, interests and other things important to me, I try to not get brought down.
 
the lounge reminds me of the movie 'Waiting'. and it is worthy of a fan cast.

Krypton is, without a shadow of a doubt, Bishop.

You be you, but always remember that it's other people seeing you from the outside in and you have the reverse view. It's both those together that give you the full view.

Anyways... Here's a totally tasteless joke to cleanse the palette.
