You know what is a solid gender neutral option?
Didn’t someone try making a Jane Austen MMO? I remember that it seemed like a cool idea at the time.
Uhh... who the hell else was he calling a rapist? That feels like an important detail.
I saw him do a sponsored segment once where he turned using Bing into a kind of game show. If I were him, I’d have drank the rubbing alcohol under the sink after that one.
Is there a German or something word for “I didn’t know that this is what I wanted,”?
And then his dad would have told him that he just told him that to motivate him to be the best. That’s when you kick your dad in the balls and be like, “I’m doing that to motivate you to not get kicked in the balls.”
I’m getting really tired of all these Calvinists calling America a “Christian Nation” and returning to “Christian Values”. No, you want Calvinism motherfucker. Don’t go bringing my Christianity into this.
Well based on your demonstrated comprehension of History and English, I’m sure they can find better teachers than you had.

As an IT professional, don’t give me this bullshit that kids can’t be on their phones at school. I know all yinz motherfuckers on your phones constantly all goddamn day.

This had been my plan for a long time. When I was at my last job, I was in charge of creating and altering user accounts and permissions for various computer systems. We would get these rename requests, mostly people who had been recently married. One lady was Miss Smith and she apparently married a Mr. Wilson so she…
Exactly, I’m not saying that I’m correct about their assumptions, or that those assumptions are also true to the world, it’s just that this seems to be the most logical reasoning behind removing the content, and that it’s not censorship. (Not that it is any better than censorship.)
I’m not the Planet Money podcast so I can’t really research the hard numbers, I can only try to follow the logic as to who and why removed the content. The logic seeming to be that this particular kind of in-your-face fanservice would generate a certain kind of bad publicity in America that would hurt the Nintendo…
Yeah, but have you seen the lines at Disney World?
The moral minority has too much sway in America based on the noise they make and their compulsive voting habits. I could go in depth on various things like the way console licensing is leveraged and how the ESRB and the MPAA make decisions, but the complexity itself is almost proof enough.

That’s a solid dad joke for a guy old enough to be a great-grandfather by now.
