If they're willing to even vote on it, north carolina can't be a very fun place to live as a homosexual.
I don't think at any time, in any state, the general population has approved of a same sex marriage law.

If you don't like gay marriage, don't get one! Simple no?
E: My state tried to ban teachers from using the word "gay", and voted for Santorum in the primary...get me out of here.

Black and white is very simple, but unrealistic.

Black and white is very simple, but unrealistic.
And having the government completely step out of marriage is equally unrealistic.
My stance is "If it doesn't involve your life, why is it your business?" Of course, I also believe that legislation should not be written on moral grounds. But that's a whole debate I don't feel like getting in to.

Wow. They actually gave pandaren females the Caramell Dansen dance.
And male pandaren dance is so amazing I am thinking of rolling a MALE monk now. xD I love the choreography in Party Rock to BITS.

No one remembers those, though.Of course, I also believe that legislation should not be written on moral grounds.Both sides are guilty of this. But that's a whole debate I don't feel like getting in to.The RB gets pushy when the topic is deeper than lulz.

Well, I never thought I'd say this, but I think I owe Keith DeCandido an apology.
A few years ago, I said he was one of the worst authors I've ever read, and that it was unlikely I'd ever read anything of him ever again. This was due to the book he wrote "Cycle of Hatred" which stands today as a book SO HORRIBLE, its the one Warcraft Book I can definitely recommend everyone to just skip. its just not worth it.
Hell, I even linked his name to the likes of Dietz, and Meyer in terms of hack writing, due to how poorly written, how atrociously characterized and how blatantly wrong in terms of lore, his book was, in regards to warcraft canon.
So, since i'm now reading all of the starcraft books in order, when I got to book number 3, "Starcraft: Ghost" which was written by him, I honestly felt tempted to just skip it.
But I chose to give him the benefit of the doubt. Hey, maybe Cycle of Hatred was his one flop book. Even the best authors tend to have that one "black sheep" book that they'd wish they've never written. Even my favorite authoress of all times (Agatha Christie) had a book like that (its called in spanish "Los cuatro grandes" I'm not sure what its title was in english).
And thank goodness I chose to do that. Loved the book. It was awesome.
The writing was (mostly) really good, so was the pacing, loved pretty much all of the characters, all in all, a fine read. Not to mention this is one of those rare books that completely absorbed my attention. I usually only read about 10 to 20 pages per night, but this book? just tonight I read 170 pages in one go, I just could not put it down. So far, only about a dozen books have done that to me, so kudos to Keith for doing it as well.
I do have one critique against it though and a pretty serious one.
The book is set on a poor slum, where its expected that low class people swear a lot. I don't usually have a problem with excessive swearing if the setting fits, and considering the description of the run down neighborhood, it did. The problem was, that he replaced the (in)famous "F-word" with a bowlderized euphemism. "Flick"
I'm not kidding, replace the "F-word" with "Flick" and suddenly, NOT A PHRASE can be taken seriously. I mean look at this "Gem" (using quotes is fun =D)
What the flick? are you flicking kidding me? I flicking told you to check that shipment, the boss is gonna be angry now, and its all your flicking fault. 'Know what? flick you.
flick you!
you slike, get the flick outta here.
¬.¬ you tell me, how the flick am I supposed to take that flicking sentence seriously..........
Other than that rather poor attempt of cursing, I found the book quite enjoyable.
Wow. They actually gave pandaren females the Caramell Dansen dance.
O_O
And now, I'm feeling this irresistible urge to race-change all of my toons (where class is applicable) into fem pandarens................

This?
...seroiusly? Why don't the bears just squat down and pinch off a loaf. That would be funnier, at least.

Technically, it's a mix of the Hara Hara dance and Caramelldansen...but yes, it's awesome. Pity they gave the males that god awful Shuffling....

Yeah, but that is just a loop of a single move from the whole dance. I think the whole dance is basically a dance that those two characters perform in the whatever clip they come from.
I like the caramelldansen song, its funky and I have been dancing to it a few times and it was fun, but I do not think the female pandaren dance is as awesome as the male one. A lot less awesome actually.
But then again, what would I suggest that would beat the shuffling from Party Rock. No idea. I don't know what I would give to panda females.
If anyone was wondering, the links to the dances are on the mmo-champ homepaeg.
