Dude, I tried to explain the idea of dig whistle politics to a guy who borders on the alt-right spectrum. He denounced it as fake news.

Shit, I’ve been doing this wrong. I often skip straight to #4 and arrive home with a lot of wear on my shoes and sometimes unexplained damage to clothes and/or body. Oh, booze. You, devil, you.

The other three steps should come in handy. Thank you for giving me three steps, mister.

Why does AV Club seem to suck now? The whole vibe is different.
You slap our back and pretend you knew
All the things we were gonna do
What ya gonna do, what you gonna do
When it’s over?

YESSSSS. I was really hoping someone wold run with that Jimmy song. Thank you for your validation.

Please help me not be gray. Can AV Club survive Kinja?

Dear Randall Colburn,
I am the fictitious persona ACESandEIGHTS, longtime contributor to both AV Club/Disqus and many Kinja sites. As I have been approved for uncensored posting in places like Jalopnik, Kotaku, would you please un-gray me on this site please? That would be awesome.
Regards,

P.S.: Nice piece.

I loved her in that Atomic Blonde band.

Why play a fully-realized modern Los Angeles online when you can play a musty dusty 1940s version that tries to build off the GTA franchise but fails?

Hmm, no love for AOE3, a shame. My only problem with it was the small chance your game would last until the 3rd or 4th phase when the field guns started rolling out in earnest. Otherwise loved that game so much with its crazy units. The slow-and-deliberate thing I’m not sure I buy... If you’re going to win against the

Option 4, Kirk. No ragrets.

Groms all day. Groms and classic enduros. Though the sport class is sure to be hilarious until someone loses a spine.

Cannot wait. This technically has nothing to do with me and the guys I play with since we’re patiently awaiting the XBox release but I’m still jazzed about this game.

Easily the most hilarious discussion I’ve seen on any Gizmodo/Kinja site in months. Had to call coworkers over here so we could laugh at shit like “gone full Gargamel” and “Jason Alexander hairline.”

His schtick is bonkers. I can’t believe he keeps that garbage up all day long. Throw me in a wig, $5 Brokeleys, a weird tactical vest and tell me I have to yell at kids, and play shooters well while interacting with people on Twitch and whatnot and I’d be an instant alcoholic. Heh, I give the guy credit but I think

One day, most people will wake up and say “WTF? I followed a guy in a wig who played games while dressed like John Oates?

Sweet picture. Airwolf was the dumbest most awesome idea of the 80s. Remember Archangel, the mustachioed guy in the white pimp suit who had one lens in his glasses darkened? And String fellow Hawke, the dumb silent type, with the brother St. John (“Sinjin”) unlikeliest of names? String serenading falcons with a cello

Haven’t logged in this summer... Somehow custom planes with hangars sound intriguing... So you don’t need to go to an airport or whatever. Same limitations apply though: Same island, nowhere else to go, the city is a big mess of griefing. Game is stale.

Know what this made me think of? The RPG Paranoia (2nd Ed.) Play it for laughs, expect to die frequently, note that the DM will roll a single die for no particular reason and then do what he wants.

Oh Ready Player One. Don’t care if it tanks or not (no, secretly I hope it fails miserably) but it will always remind me that I read that silly young adult novel, then donated it to the library so swiftly that I forgot to inscribe it with “This is trash. Pure trash. Read Huckleberry Finn. —ACESandEIGHTS” before

Which we _WANT_, right?? I hope anyway. It did feel futuristic but badass 1940s-hard-boiled-transplanted-into-2040s futuristic, what with Deckard’s tie and overcoat, working-Joe haircut and mannerisms (how badass was the scene where he had to wash filthy glasses just to drink some hooch?)—-I think Ridley Scott took a
