Aaw, this reminds me of night Gawker. Something horrible to read just before bed, thanks!

With absolutely zero evidence to back this up, I find it being a Cockney slang term far more believable than Depression-era craps slang.

Somehow, I don’t think those will prevent “head” injuries. Or will they?

I am dumbfounded that anyone would chum waters where swimmers are expected the next day...

I feel like the fact that there is a person known nationally as “hot convict” should be included as an early predictor of Trump winning the 2016 election in future textbooks.

A lot of D&D players tend to make the mistake of substituting alignment for personality in their characters. Instead of coming up with a complex character with its own desires and personal motivations, they start by saying “well I’m lawful good so I guess that means I want XYZ”. I think this problem has led to a LOT…

You can make custom games, which is likely what they did.

“optimization” is a term gamers like to throw around like they know what it means. It’s something you do after the game is essentially built by removing non-essential items and code and/or modifying them to reduce footprint.

Optimization is atrocious because the game is not complete. Would be pointless for them to…

Legit I will watch College-ish if it promises to include some sort of Shade Court reference as well as copious amounts of Ed Sheeran burns

It was lucky it’s a non-issue. Those signs are generally there for a reason, and he had no reason to assume it wasn’t a big deal. The internet was right, and Mike Pence is an inconsiderate jackass.

Hang on, what does a panda wearing an anteater hat have to do with anything?

She’s going to write for a Black-ish spin-off. Which is seriously awesome! But we’ll miss her writing here for sure.

Full sincerity here; we’ll miss you and your writing here. I’m continually sad to see so many brilliant writers leaving this place, but I understand. It’s tough watching this place get slowly defanged and made increasingly mainstream and Voxian, but damn if you all aren’t magnificent at what you do.

While I love the idea of sending a manned mission to Mars, and I hope we do that soon... the idea that Mars is some kind of “backup” plan for humanity for a near-future anthropomorphic ruining of Earth is pretty laughable.

I agree. And besides the reasons’s you said, if Crews eventually gets a part, i think an actual hero, not a villain, would be best suited. He’s too nice a dude.

Honestly, as much as I love Terry Crews, I’m okay that he wasn’t tapped to voice Doomfist. For one, give regular VO’s a chance rather than big hollywood stars, and for two, I’m 200% down for more voices in video games that aren’t Americans or Brits.

Obviously that wasn’t the real tracer, the one in the video was moving vertically.

In the “You may also like” section, there are stories from other Gizmodo networks, and unfortunately, one of the top stories is about a bunch of Brazilian soccer players who got released because they were giving each other handies in the locker room and shit.

I dealt with this at a previous job. What you quickly realize in these situations, talking to your boss about it will rarely if ever do anything. If they asked you to do something ethically wrong/illegal, they’ve already accepted that and it’s unlikely you will change their mind.

For a little while I worked for a small…
