The group think in this thread is obnoxious.

In any other thread when something is going out of business it's "omg all those poor people out of work.  no jokes, guys!" and in this thread it's "capitalism is survival of the fittest.  that's the risk you take.  yadda yadda yadda"

What a bunch of fucking morons.  I wish their group think was at least fucking consistent.

Yes.  Not to mention it clashes with their "that's stereotyping!" ideals.

"hummer drivers are bad drivers"
"people who own hummers are always douche bags"
"people who own escalades are always douche bags"
"they're all rich people"
"they all own guns"

Cool.  Imma go in a thread and make a joke about all black people loving chicken and chinese people being awesome at math.  Oh and all Indians owning corner stores and smelling.  Oh yeah, Jews are cheap.  Let's see how they react.

I thought the big issue with Hummer was that it's essentially a tax-payer funded project? Derivative of military contracts and whatnot.

I've never really heard anyone complain about that.  But I dunno.  I don't have a problem with it if there's a market for it, which obviously there isn't.  I just hate the doubletalk from GAF.

I've forgotten most of the rants of my car-hating friend, but that one stuck. It seemed like the most reasonable of his rants. I don't know if it's true or not, but government money being used to fund development of commercial brands seems a bit off.

IIRC, government contracted Hummers for years and then there was enough demand that Hummer made a civilian model.  There's no way around the fact that in a way the government paid for part of the development, but it's not like the civilian model was completely funded by the government.  I mean, what were they supposed to do?  Throw out the specific design and reason people wanted the vehicle so that there wasn't any loose connection with government money?  Seems illogical to me.  People talk about pisspoor decision in the company and that would have definitely been one.

Being from a formerly quasi-socialist state, it just seems off to me. By American standards, on the other hand, it doesn't. Personally, I'd like to see more military tech filter down to the mainstream, but then preferably from several companies.

I don't remember what the last two times were for.  

But the first time was for saying that the myspace suicide kid had been caught cramming a dildo up his ass and that's why he did it.  It was pretty crass.  

I had protection there for a while because of my avatar, but then some mod said it was NSFW and when it was removed I got banned shortly thereafter.

My names were Mupepe, SupaFlySoccerMom and AlanHemberger.

I think Mupepe and AlanHemberger have been deleted.

Yeah, I can see how it can seem off.  But it was a civilian company contracted to create something for the military which civilians also wanted and there's no reason why they shouldn't be able to.  It would have been an absolutely distinguished mentally-challenged business decision for them not to go through with it, really.  And in the end, they really just turned into an SUV maker.  The H2 and H3 were SUV's with the Hummer look.  Nothing more.  They were not offroad vehicles whatsoever.  Anything they had in common with the original died with the H1.  They were really just selling the name after a while.

Banned for doing what?

I really wonder why did some of you guys get banned from/why did you leave GAF?

Just curious.

This has been talked about a bunch, but I tend to get longer and longer bans for small infractions now. The new GAF culture seems to promote groupthink (mob trollspotting, for one) and fanboy banter that is just on the "right" side of things. As long as you don't stick out, you're alright. The whole place feels humorless, which probably has something to do with a huge influx of new clown blood hungry to be part of the legendary NeoGAF, and the upper crust leaving for EB. It's been overrun by tourism, basically.

It's an emoticon at OA now I believe.  The original was just her photoshopped with some funny old lady glasses (the one I laughed at).  Then someone added drool coming from her mouth and that's the emoticon at OA now.

Story started off pretty damn normal, BUT THEN:

Quote from: the•rebel
Dear Gaf, I need help! I'm obsessed with a beautiful woman and I don't know how to proceed.

We take the same bus in the morning, but on occasion. Either I grab the bus too early or too late. So, sometimes I don't see her for days. When I do see her, either the bus is crowded or I'm seated far from her, leaving me with no chance to introduce myself. Plus, having people overhear the conversation may make her less receptive.

I have given her my seat once or twice, but never mustered the nerve to talk to her. I remember catching her looking at me one time. She was caught of guard and looked away nervously. Could that be a sign?

Now, I won't assume she likes me, but at this point I need to do something. It's become an obsession.


I know the ideal approach would be to talk to her, but the variables are not working in my favor. I'm considering giving her my business card with some sort of note on the back. Perhaps something along the lines of:

Fortune favors the bold. There is something about you that intrigues me. I would like to know more about you, outside of a cramped bus. ###-###-####.

I know that a note may seem cowardly, but I'm at loss here. What do you think, Gaf?

No. AM General manufactures the military grade Hummers (which are being phased out anyway and are no longer sold to consumers). They then licensed the name "Hummer" to GM, who did all the R&D and manufacturing for the H2 and H3 on their own.

Although I guess GM itself is a tax payer funded project LOL

Most of the people complaining won't play the game anyways. And the "mini games" you cite include full sidequests which, in the past two Yakuza games, unlock nice rewards.

Also, the Yakuza game formula has changed so little, who really cares about the fourth (actually fifth! game) in the series? Homojapuals like to complain about companies like EA when in truth, some Japanese companies rehash shit just as much. There has been 5 Yakuza games in the past 5 YEARS.
