Just proof that if you think hard enough and get creative enough, you can make anything “offensive”.

>At this point, Epic should maybe think about changing the name of their game. Never doubt the power of the youths—they’re just plain funnier than you.

But it isn’t funny, its just dumb.

This entire strike has been nothing but an exercise in shooting yourself in the foot, since virtually every actor on strike who would’ve had a role by now had it relegated to another actor.
