The worst part was easily people actually defending him after he made that dev's life hell. Bad enough he's an asshole but people defending that shit and him were beyond the pale. How the whole thing went down would ensure it's bound to happen again tbh.

I was in SF last weekend.  Downtown has a Starbucks every block.  Sometimes multiples.  There are corners with opposing Starbucks.  And throw in the occasional Peet's for good measure.  Not even Seattle is like that.  What's odd about it is that there are just as many local places right there, too.  And Blue Bottle, even.  If you're in SF, try Bread and Cocoa.  Really good coffee, pastries breakfast sandwiches.  For real, I don't understand how everyone in SF isn't 500 pounds.  There's every type of restaurant or cafe and they're all good.

Christopher's a joke poster.  He started that Dawkins thread, too.

No question, Dunkin dominates New England. Starbucks has a high penetration in cities but out in the wild, it's Dunkin country.

Same here in Long Island, you can't drive more than a mile in any direction without running into either a Dunkin or a "Sevs" (7-Eleven)

Ok, I played it for almost 2 hours. A resounding MEH. I don't know if I'll go back and play it, seeing as I've played loads of better nes/snes rpgs.

Arrogant Sony is back in full flow   

In regards to Kojima his an unabashed Sony fanboy which is kind of refreshing as devs usually have to play neutral and now free of Konami gets to fulfill working for them knowing that he could have been pitching a game where some shit has to re-infiltrate an asshole and Sony would have funded it just so they could have a console exclusive.

We really do need more corporate arrogance. The age of the sensitive exec is over.

What a weird response from Yoshida.

Ryan writes for Official X-box Magazine (or well, used to in the early 2000's). He now writes for the X-box division of IGN and does the "Inside X-box" X-box Live episodes IIRC. So Yoshida's "do you happen to love X-box" response is kinda targeting that but the whole response is just out there in general.

Ehh, I wouldn't miss him. Guy gets so butthurt whenever consoles get any bit of positive press or any kind of release. There was a thread about positive PS4 sales in Germany (long a staunch PC country) and he was doing ridiculous amounts of damage control. It's a bit sad, actually.

South Park is just blegh.

[mormapope]

South Park makes fun of all types of people, ideas, social things. Blame the people that take that song super duper seriously rather than a satirical, not super duper serious cartoon.

[Tasty]

I feel like getting mad at anything South Park does is either missing the point or playing into Parker/Stone's hands.

Like the dude who played Chef getting butthurt over the (rather tame) scientology disses after the show had been sticking it to religion in general and Christianity specifically for years.

[mormapope]

Also, that song is making fun of people that troll the fuck out of other people or are just huge trolls in general, that want their own "safe space" where they don't get called out on their bullshit. The song is shitting on people that want to dish stuff out but can't handle the pressure themselves.

I mean, Cartman is one of the leads in the song. Cartman of all people wants his own safe space to continue saying and doing heinous shit.

[Shadow Mod]

Punching down, low hanging fruit and generally doing that smug libertarian shit just isn't my cup of tea. 

[mormapope]

I feel like politics is rarely a thing with South Park, but eh, whatever.

[VomKriege]

The issue isn't really South Park, it's how it's being brought up (on GAF for instance) constantly as if it was some sort of insightful debate closer. I didn't watch SP in a long ass time but I'd say it did go "politics" quite a few times, like with that voting stuff in school with the douche and turd sandwich, and often SP have this weird non-commital stance of putting every side back to back and standing for a somewhat unfeasible middleground.

PC has had Sony legit shook since like 3-4 years ago when a mid-range card (of that time) could still out-perform their stuff in modern times.

In that season of 14 episodes though, two had to do with politics or political issues at that time.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Park_(season_8)

And remember, 8 years of the show was in the W. Bush era of American politics. It would be hard to not riff on all the dumb and crazy shit that happened during those years.
