More like GAF and NPD. From what she's saying, NPD_George, who was an "official" at NPD and thus allowed to post numbers so long as NPD didn't care/said "it's okay to do that" is perma'd by GAF. Which is why she's bitching about it.

Jesus, she really wants to get fired, it's a transparent admission that George is a sockpuppet account. Makes for fun drama tho.

That's why I wanted George to act as my successor, to help people out because I'm just too busy...because I mean, the most important part of what I used to do for GAF was reveal NPD numbers. I know I had a lot of insight into the industry as well, but that's the primary reason people cared about me.

oh god I wanna know soooooooo bad which company this is

probably not a well known one, but still

Of course, this is the same developer who were working on a licensed game for about four years or so, and kept delaying it to the point where the license-holder withdrew due to breach of contract, meaning they'd pissed away four years of work and investment for nothing. They haven't got a fucking clue what they're doing, and it's only a matter of time until the whole company go under.

The list can't be that long.

Happy Valentine’s Day, GAF.

So my roommate is an asshole. I think it’s pretty important that I get that out of the way first. Between not using headphones late in the night when playing his shitty jump-cut-ey Youtube vlog garbage to bringing loud strangers into our room at early hours in the morning to sleep on the floor, he’s a nightmare to room with. I’d be lying if I said that this didn’t, in some way, affect what I did today.
It’s Valentine’s Day and love is in the air, or whatever, so he and his band of misogynistic, testosterone charged dick-heads are actively on the prowl to solicit sex from some emotionally vulnerable teenaged girl. They all came into our room this morning while I was sleeping and their chatter on the subject matter woke me up. It’s their usual nonsense. “They just tryna smash” and what not.
Their discussion is centered on my roommate, who, during the conversation, is texting a girl who is interested in him. I’ve overheard, and have been told in person, that this girl seems to be quite attached to him. Before today, he’s shown little interest in her and has even referred to her frequent and consistent attempts at getting together with him as ‘annoying.’ Angry, annoyed and curled under my sheets, I hear him and his friends coach him into texting her to ask for sex. It’s not nearly that direct, but he texts her with invitations to leave her house and come over to our room on campus. “You won’t be so lonely if you come over, bae” etc. I’m cringing and angry for so many reasons at this point. I know with certainty that this girl has feelings for my roommate and he’s clearly exploiting her for sexual pleasure and it’s apparent that he and his ‘squad’ have very little concern for her emotional well-being. She’s an item to them: a prize.

--

He and his friends leave the room to get breakfast/lunch together.
I check my roommate’s ‘recently added’ section of his friends list. It was easy to find this girl. She has a unique name. I temporarily create a fake Facebook account and message her. I tell her I’m anonymous helper that doesn’t want to see anyone get hurt. I tell her that the ‘boys only want one thing’ narrative is unfortunately true much of the time. I tell her he’s only after that one thing and it’d be very wise of her to not grow and attached and not allow him to use her like that.
She is understanding and tells me that she probably knows deep down that he only wants to use her but won’t let him. She thanks me and wishes me a happy Valentine’s Day. She has told my roommate that she can’t make it this evening and is going home for the break.
I feel really good inside. Should I? Have I protected a young woman from emotional heartache? Am I doing it out of spite for my roommate or because it felt like the right thing to do? Is it even any of my business? Does that matter? Do I suck?

I love how he calls the roommates misogynists but in the same breath assumes this poor little girl can't make her own decisions and fend for herself.

He saved her from the endless heartbreak that is having sex without a lifelong relationship. Women are too special, you have to keep them inside their original packaging.

I always thought the fanatical nature of Kanye West fanboys was exaggerated.

After going through the latest thread for his latest album, turns out nothing was exaggerated. A lot of people in the thread are level headed. There are people though that believe Kanye is an actual visionary, instead of simply being a good or great music producer while being okay at best at rapping.

Okay.

You know what.

No more new emotes.

Likes are shorthand for "I agree" or "that's good". You appended the emote to a sentence that people might not necessarily agree with. Make like Arvie: keep it short and double (triple, quadruple, quintuple) post, one for each thought.
