Forum Overview :: Galactic Civilizations :: You make an excellent point, sir!

[quote name="Mischief Maker"]Indeed, this is a very negative time we live in, with Frankenstorms and the possibility of a Scientologist President just over the horizon, and a news media that more than ever is run by the maxim, "If it Bleeds it Reads." The last thing we need to fuel our relaxation time is more negativity. I remember reading once that the reason Positive Reinforcement is more effective than Negative is because it communicates more information. For the sake of my own vanity, I cannot stomach the vapidity of total negativity. SO I THEREFORE PROCLAIM starting tomorrow, November 3rd, until December 14th, I will challenge myself to a <B>Zero Negativity Challenge</B>! Both on Caltrops and in my real life, I will neither speak nor think negativity, except as necessary in the course of my employment. In addition, I will endeavor to write glowing reviews of my 12 favorite videogames of all time for the 'Trops to publish. Finally, for these 42 days, my battle cry will be "Pollyanna, Bitches!"[/quote]
