Oh, sweet summer child.....

They do it because it works. Jim Jordan’s cries of “fake news” aren’t directed at you, me, or even CNN. They are directed at the voters of his (heavily Republican) Congressional district, who don’t watch CNN and aren’t inclined to believe their reporting already. His tweet is designed to inoculate himself against the…

Roy Moore personally molested a series of underage girls. When this came to light, his party continued to endorse him, actively campaigned for him, and he ended up winning 91% of the Alabama Republican vote.

Apparently shutting out the defending World Cup champions 1-0 and making ten saves in the process no longer qualifies as a "defensive test". LOL.

“their defense has been entirely untested.”

Iceland - Plucky underdog, first WC appearance, wasn’t expected to do much, still managed to tie a far more talented team in group play.

When you make a dismissive statement like “there are grievances on both sides”, you are implying that the actions leading to and resulting from those grievances were of equivalent severity and scale, and therefore both sides are equally culpable for the resulting conflict and bloodshed. This is total bullshit. There…

“Sure, the United States government committed systematic theft, rape, and slaughter of Native American tribes on a colossal scale that can credibly be described as genocide. But a few of those tribes also raided white settlements and killed civilians. So, you know, everyone has a valid reason to be pissed.”

“I’m also Balkan myself”.

A soccer game once set off a brief war between Honduras and El Salvador in 1969.

It was truly a lolocaust.

Well, there were a handful of Jewish organized crime groups in early 20th century Europe. So you know, there was “blood on both sides” of the Holocaust. /s

This is like saying that because there were some Jewish organized crime crime groups in Europe in the early 20th century, therefore there was ‘blood on both sides’ of the Holocaust.

“I don’t want my kids to play Fortnite all day long on their phone and then play it again on their console when back from the school.”

The thing about digital games is that you’re never actually buying them, you’re just renting them indefinitely for a one-time fee. Buried in the fine print of your purchase TOS is that your future access to your game is subject to change based on a whole bunch of stuff including licensing agreements, server support,…

People have forgotten how bad the N64 controller’s analog stick was.

Ah, the Gamecube controller. Perfect for playing Smash, shit for playing anything else.

It’s been hilarious watching the same Sony fanboys who once gleefully cited PlayStation sales figures and name-dropped exclusive titles now complain about the PSN refusing to adopt cross-platform play. “Why is Sony being such dicks to their own customers?” They now say. Well, because Economics, dumbass. Monopoly…

Every plaform plays nice with each other and allows cross-play and cross-platform account syncing on Fortnite. Switch can play with Xbox, Xbox with PC, PC with Switch. You can access the same Epic account on any of them and your progress and unlocks move with you and back.

This. In the past, cross-platform play was largely held up because of technological issues. Those have been solved and the concept has been proven to work. The rest of the industry has started to embrace it, and the precedent has now been set. Even Nintendo, historically the king of the Walled Garden of Gaming, are on…
