I'm expect this will have at least one reference to Ray Nagin.

That's pretty much what 'friend-zoning' is. A natural thing suddenly twisted into something bad by people who didn't get what they want. It's like asking your mom for more ice cream. When she tells you that you had enough, you just scream "LOOK EVERYONE! SHE DENIED ME ICE CREAM SHE "ICE CREAM DENIED" ME!" and make…

Folks are more likely to complain about what Jezebel is gonna do than Jezebel is to complain about an article.

Being "friend-zoned" is much better than being absolutely fucking hated by the girl you were going for. You get to know them more, you still get to do things with them and they may even do you a solid or two when you've got something urgent.

Oh there are adults. They just have the brains and understanding of social concepts like children.

I think about the thing with their trolling is that they help confirm prejudices, misinform people and divide the country into an unnecessary 'us vs them' kind of formation.

Rush Limbaugh provides thrilling comments with other examples.

If it's one thing these people have is having a problem with admitting they're wrong about something. The defensiveness is natural, but no more disturbing than sea cucumbers being capable of vomiting their organs.

A white football player calling someone the n-word. With an audio recording to prove it.

If what you say is true, this won't surprise me. Coming from a website that unironically uses racial and homophobic slurs and personifies "Ebola" into some crappy anime waifu character, this would just fit in their library of "Look at me I'm so edgy and funny online when I'd get beaten with tire irons in real life".

I think the problem with video games, much like any other example of media, is that it falls to the old tropes of books, movies, comics, shows and so on. Society still has a badly dated concept on women, non-white races and other minority groups. Although it's nowhere as bad as 30-50 years ago, there are still issues…

Don't you see?! They got a girl gamer mascot! They can't be misogynistic! It's like why they can't be racist! All those black friends!

This is what I think is the big thing about this GamerGate debate. Those siding on GamerGate have completely lost social filters from being on the Internet too long. This guy fucking said this. He fucking said he was going to lynch her. How do you explain this shit in a public presentation? With the rise of social…

Well being equal with everyone else means the majority group doesn't get to completely dominate everything. They'd still be treated equal, but the lack of supremacy over others gives them the vapors.

If there's more of this in the game, I might get it. As nice as AC2, Brotherhood and AC4 are, I'm now getting tired of the growing monotony of the game. It could really use a different setting. As long as this is a big part of the game and not some 20 minute one-time sequence, I'll consider getting it.

Once the GG people get what they want (from my guess is for Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian to be out of a job or something?), they're going to pack up and go home. Nobody is going to continue the fight for ethics of game journalism. A few may, but they won't have the power of the group behind them. It could be…

Aeon Flux? The cool anime, right? What movie? I never heard of a movie. You must be hearing things.

It's happened to DC with their 'light-hearted' superhero movies. After Green Lantern failed, they've been trying to rely on 'gritty realism' movies like The Dark Knight trilogy (which is awesome) and Man of Steel (not awesome). The new Superman v Batman movie will likely be the same, while Marvel movies have been…

I think you unwrapped a ghost. Run

Dush remunds me of 'Dosh', slang for money. It's a dumb name, but it's an amusing name.
