Dude's in to magic. Of course he diddles kids.

Does this mean Penn and Teller diddle kids, or is this some subtle shade about Magic: the Gathering? :thinking

That's what Spike says to Giles because they were under the impression that he's Giles' son because they both have English accents. So he thought Giles was the one who named him Randy.

I hope he gets fucked, not generally a spiteful person anymore, but that shit he pulled on SEGA was fucking mind blowing. Sometimes it's just nice to see an asshole get his.

Randy seems like an in your face sleazebag who thinks he can get away with all sorts of shady shit.

But let's not forget that they kept whatever was going on with Anthony Burch under wraps as well.
And guess what. He landed a gig at Riot Games and got fired there for the same shit.

*camgirl sticks bowling pin in her ass*

"Oh, wow. That looked like some slight of hand, and there must be a trap door involved somewhere, but how did they get the midget and the donkey to come out of there? I'll seriously have to go frame by frame on this illusion."

You know what? I'd pay good money to see a woman with a trap door in her ass.

Quote
During my employment with the Respondent [Gearbox Software], I have been subjected to unfair standards and expectations based on my religion. Mr. Randy Pitchford (President & CEO) would constantly harass me based on my religious beliefs. Mr. Pitchford would state that my religious beliefs were distinguished mentally-challenged and indicative of a broken brain. Mr. Pitchford would often visit my office with gifts ridiculing Christianity.

I reported the harassing and hostile work environment that was created by Mr. Pitchford to the Human Relations Department, but no disciplinary or corrective actions were taken. After reporting the harassment to the HR department, it appears that Mr. Pitchford's harassment became more severe.

After I notified the Respondent that I could no longer tolerate the persistent hostile work environment and wanted to commence with my exit-negotiations, Mr. Pitchford immediately notified other employees that he was accepting my resignation, which was non-existent. I was immediately restricted from my Gearbox email account, personnel, resources, and access to the building. I believe I was retaliated against and terminated from my position based on my religion (Christian).

Great question, and seems like a fair question at that
