I tried their free weekend, and it was fun for a bit but even after two days I found it repetitive. It certainly is very pretty and polished but I felt no need to play it again after the free weekend was over.

Battlefield 1 on the other hand... I've purposely avoided buying it because I know once I do it'll be the only game I play for months on end.

Yeah, exactly. There were tons of streams on Twitch of NMS before release. I should have said this in my statement, but before I thought it was just going to be an indie space exploration survival game - but it became clear from the streams - that this game consisted of a lot of grinding and was pretty repetitive. I wasn't sure if I would actually enjoy that, which is why I didn't pay for it First thing I noticed was the nerfed surface travel, you can't even crash and second thing I noticed was the retarded inventory system, third - mine, mine, mine, grind and not much variation. It WREAKS of consolitis (framerate at 30, on PC, attention to detail Sean, come on?!), but to their credit, playing the game with a controller is quite nice, so much better than the shitty PC controls they implemented. I still like it and am enjoying the surprising relaxation of the grind/exploration, so I will pay for it when it's $30 and is heavily patched & modded. $60.00 is absolutely ridiculous for this game, but hopefully they take that extra $30 they ripped off from people and put in some major work.

Overwatch is another game that I was pissed at having paid $60.00 for. But, since it's a Blizzard game I always know they will make it worth my while in the long-run and it's steadily been true of Overwatch. Blizzard really know how to support their games unlike any other developer. I enjoy OW much more now that the competitive mode came out, a new hero (a little underwhelming but still cool) added and pretty soon an awesome looking new map. The lucio-ball thing is cool that they added in, but don't care much for it. Still hate the loot, though....

Taken individually, perhaps there could be just similar sounding soundbites...but taken as a whole, it's a word for word repetition with only a few minor changes (but wouldn't it have been great if she has said "Barak and I were raised with many of the same values"). They've now admitted that 1) she didn't write her speech as she repeatedly claimed and 2) many parts were plagiarized (not that they used that word...they said "borrowed from other speeches that fit her narrative").
And, as you alluded to, FAR less than 1 in 1 TRILLION odds that she didn't plagiarize is also pretty convincing.

Totally agree about the levels. I thought they very repetitive. After a few hours I felt like I had done it all in the new doom.

The level design was a key feature of the original dooms, and totally absent here.

Getting locked into a room every few minutes is really repetitive and annoying.

It's interesting because my video kept pausing and a few times I thought it had skipped backwards. He is absolutely consistent in his repetitive delivery of statements that have no content whatsoever.

Check out the word repetition. Using those hypnotism techniques... skittering everywhere... attacking attacking feinting and attacking....

I'm a huge python fan to pretty much academic levels, and I hold up this sketch as an example of comedy as a craft, and of Cleese in particular as a craftsman.

Every line has its place. Every word. The premise itself is funny enough, and the way it's developed is great, but what I love the most is the way the core in particular was pared down to balance extracting the most comedy and frustration against the massive repetition.

They did improve on the intro in particular as time went on, and the end works best in the context of the whole episode, but the core remains pretty much unchanged. Not only was it scripted meticulously, it also allows the performers plenty of room to change it around and keep it fresh.

The repetition isn't an accident, dummies.

The questions are quite repetitive by nature, intentionally. But they usually throw more little twists into them so that they aren't all quite SO similar as that second link. Plus, the phrasing of the questions in general seemed much better in the first link.

I've taken quite a few variations of the test and they always come back INTP. So, I think that is probably "correct" for me; assuming one can put any stock into these personality test things at all.

The professionally administered one you took sounds reminiscent of my experiences when getting IQ tested for school. That was kinda bizarre at points -- like when they took out a "puzzle" with 4 equal sized cubes with a picture of an apple printed on one side of the cubes (other 5 faces all blank) so that if you put them together in a square it completed the picture. They made a big production of warning me that that portion of the test was timed, and then told me to put together the puzzle. It took about 1 second to verify that all of the other sides of the cubes were blank (checking to make sure it wasn't some sort of trick question) and another second to put together. Very weird.

If you search for Myers Briggs personality test, you'll find a lot.

I tried 2 of the first few search results, and this one:

was the best -- it matched what I got on a paper version of the test that I took while in school (INTP -- the "nerdy engineer" type).

This one:
http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/jtypes2.asp
gave me a slightly different result (INTJ). The questions seemed repetitive and weird in that version, so I wouldn't recommend it except for comparing.

Oh honey. You are so off base.

Did you miss the bit where I say that I know women who aren't feminists?

Not every woman is a feminist.

And not every man ISN'T a feminist.

Look in the mirror, my friend. The person with the biggest gender issues, if we have to choose between you and me, isn't me.

I won't be responding to anything else you write. I have had long long LONG private exchanges with you in the past that have garnered nothing a repetition of this same comment of yours.

So say what you will about me now and in the future. I will not be responding. It is a waste of time.

Oh, okay. So using profanity pointlessly, repetitively, and boringly is his shtick. I guess I won't allow it to annoy me too much.

Fun meal if you're not watching your carb intake. I wonder what crunchy spaghetti is like.

Trikes though? That's cool but very repetitive it seems, with you essentially just sitting on your ass all of the time. I don't think I could adopt another hobby which has me sitting on my ass. Check out Sergio Yuppie for some serious downhill acrobatics.

Looks like they were inspired by BMX Kidz:


That game was notable for the fact that they spent all their development time on the intro music and not the actual game

Repetition teaches the donkey!

the repetitive downward leaning made my eyes leak
