GAF scrambling for ways to still be triggered tho.

And before you attempt to respond with “but none of these have an Asian in them”, let me just say that I am under no obligation to treat this ad as an indivisible whole anymore than I’m obligated to analyze specific scenes from a film or a paragraph from a book. And neither is anyone else. This selective freedom is one of the wonders of literary interpretation.

Selective freedom :dead

have we discussed this thread yet

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1447007

From the OP and his updates, it does sound like she was probably doing something shady

but good FUCK the responses in that thread.  are people that untrusting?

like 90% of people are just saying 'dump her', what's the issue

No, that's what I mean.  So many fuck her, dump her ass posts despite it being a more nuanced situation.

just feels super reactive is all

wait so you're a literal cuck now?

Luckey didn't even donate to Trump, he donated to an anti-Hillary group. He was a second-time REVOLUTION newbie Ron Paul supporter (one of those) and then accidentally voted for Gary Johnson. Probably because Carmack tainted him by strapping an Ayn Rand book to his face.

I'm more amazed at people who still are surprised by John Carmack. Hermit computer programmer who becomes a multi-millionaire at age 20, who dabbles in wrecking Ferraris and launching shit into space, ordered the same pizza for 15 years, opposes patents and promotes open source software, is an atheist and met his wife at QuakeCon. When he was arrested as a kid for breaking into a school to steal Apple II's his psych eval report mentioned "no empathy for other human beings." Any two of these is a potential sign of a libertarian, three is almost dangerously so, let alone literally all of them

I mean, that's if we ignore his .plan's, twitter posts, etc. that all have descended into the darkest musings of libertarianism on the regular.

He's arguably the most famous milkshake duck of all time.

He supported Trump. He spend his money to help elect him. He also was dating someone who expressed these views which doesn’t help his case.

A little while back a Twitter friend of mine lamented that they had broken their hand and wouldn't be playing games for a long time. This kind of broke my heart, since when I've been in the hospital or in recovery, video games were a huge help. I started trying to come up with options for them and stumbled upon some cool one-handed game controllers such as the Agetec ASCII Grip for the Playstation or the ASCII Stick Super L5 for the SNES. However, these controllers are only for older consoles and can also get a bit pricey.

That's when I had a revelation. The Switch Joy-Con.

What's great about GAF is that they never fall for this stuff. They're all healthy, exercising, awesome diet North Americans who never eat fast food and can make an 8oz bag of rice last 13 years. Why the very concept of a McNugget is abhorrent.

edit:  ah, yup, profile says the kid is a compsci student at SFU.  So yeah, when I was 23, I remember thinking that making 73k within 3 years' time was "good" money.  However, I also knew that my dad made 70k a year as a transport truck driver, so I sure as hell knew that anything within sniffing distance of what a trucker made wasn't "rich" lmao.

Former Naughty Dog employee says he was sexually harassed by a lead in late 2015


Quote
In late 2015, I was sexually harassed at Naughty Dog by a lead. My work environment became extremely toxic afterward. 1/

In February 2016 I had a mental breakdown at work & Sony Playstation HR became involved. When I told them about the harassment they... 2/

...ended the call and fired me the next day. They cited the company was moving in a different direction and my job was no longer needed. 3/

They tried to silence me by offering $20,000 if I signed a letter agreeing to the termination as well as to not discuss it with anyone. 4/

I declined to sign. I have been unemployed for 17 months since. When interviewers ask why I left Naughty Dog, I say I was burned out... 5/

...by the crunch, ashamed to get to the root of the problem of being sexually harassed. 6/

I'm speaking out now because of the strength I've seen in others coming forward about their experiences in the TV/Film industry. 7/

This is the hardest thing I've ever done. I will not let anyone kill my drive or love for the video game industry, my passions or life. /END
