  1. Eh, I will get interested once there is a 7-11 Slurpy version
  2. Entertaining in a way to read the stuff the say. Also they are fantastic troll victims as they're easy to provoke.
  3. Hah, this keeps on giving. So why exactly should we care if Brice left the industry ? Doesn't seem like a huge loss.
  4. Battle Tech was the tabletop game that led to Mechwarrior, I think, anyway.
  5. She's mental, best to leave her alone.
  6. Just as long as the dragons realize they can fly so use that.
  7. Yes its called privilege blindness and is not uncommon for people who live in first world countries. You think you have a really bad deal with your governments and social situation, but in fact you don't One should not feel okay if one is being beaten with a wooden bat rather than a steel one.
  8. Oh dear, insensitive. I did like seeing one guy's reaction to being doxxed and threatened, he invited the people making the threats to act on it and gamble that he wasn't armed. Quite an amusing discussion, that was. And yes, Quinn and Wu going "Woe is me" over some other lady's death was pretty dumb (as was the point made before).
  9. They're Poles not Russians, man.
  10. Rather surprised I've not seen one of those already.
  11. Well, that's nice I suppose.
  12. Well, the Force is, the users aren't always so.
  13. Beats Attack of the Clones, at least
  14. I know we should ignore this, but it's amusing.
  15. Bah, who needs the sun. This time change is irritating, I'd prefer to come to work in darkness and go home to some light.
  16. The tragedy is obviously bad, is rather boring and pointless to expound on how upset the evil displayed makes you. Not really a display of maladjusted priorities to comment on something else. Is a rather BS point too, so some lunatic posted something to 4chan, this means 4chan are killers, apparently. Wu is the female equivalent of Derek Smart, heh.
  17. Did it in Sydney too and it didn't turn out the same way. Though I wonder how it'd go in Toronto.
  18. I forget what the reason for stopping GamerGate is now though, should ask around for that. That article is really painful for read for some reason, really hate that style, but is good enough wank material for some. Some of her 'corrections' are just opinion, e.g. the bit about TB thinking ethics should be this and her retort of "no one else thinks so!", one can think what they like about something like ethical policies in "journalism". Likewise her part where she has somehow determined the intents of GamerGate and how it seeks to destroy progressive women (really it seems now to just engaging in arugments with SJWs ). The whole sarcastic ranting tone just makes me think of angry arts major, so it's work. Well written though. "In response to a one-sided narrative by the media, proclaiming all those involved to be misogynist, disgusting white male sexists, (This is a widely touted characterisation of the response but in reality is severely overblown. It is never supported by contextually applicable quotes. At best this is the way the media has characterised the probable harassers, who nobody needs to be offended on behalf of" This one she is pretty wrong about, she needs to spend some more time in the anti-camps, heh. "Here TB callously ignores that this campaign has already driven at least two very prominent feminist voices out of Games writing: Jenn Frank and Mattie Brice. Not to mention people like Samantha Allen who were targets of these same people before they had a new face and a new shiny name and a new batch of misguided people to shield them, or the countless people who have been dissuaded from ever joining the industry after watching this disgraceful display [Those contained within the Those Who Left folders on Zoe and Brianna’s desktops]. TB either doesn’t understand or doesn’t care just how bad the past three months have been to watch or experience for most women, other marginalised groups, or hell anyone with a shred of goddamn empathy in their souls. How “Successful” do you need a campaign to remove prominent female voices to be before you consider it evidence of its true purpose? This section belies a deeper insight into TB’s priorities in this situation. His primary care is not for the tangible, real, horrifying human impact of the past few months. His primary care seems to be how this malformed little crusade is perceived. “GamerGate Moderates are being Marginalised!” is 90% of his takeaway from this entire situation)" I really am not seeing his callous ignoring of the victims. Were Frank and Brice significant in the industry ? And Wu or Quinn with a list (I like the title 'Those Who Left', pulls at the heartstrings) is really credible, heh.
  19. In the Holocaust, not GG.
  20. Hey, he said he was sorry about that. To be honest his next tweet about the body count and victims is begging for trolling
  21. Gender studies majors need a hobby.
  22. Why is DHS involved ?
