Ok. FINE it’s expensive! I grant you that this is emblematic of the software/silicon valley industries wasteful attitude toward production. But what is advancement, really?

Doug Stanhope is enlightened, too!

Well. The British don’t think through what will happen when they leave something, and the French seem to think they can just stop whenever they want.

Why do we still persist in Bear-baiting?

Impossible! The Koalas would slip off!

I would tell the hypothetical old guy in my family that his job is dumb and he should learn to duck.

Huh. These people amp themselves up as much as they possibly can to build muscle, starve themselves. Dehydrate themselves. Take skin thinners. And they do it all for the sake of a panel of judges that will evaluate them against nebulous and impossible ‘perfection’ of physical form. When they act out in rage, they’re…

This one I think you’d be surprised by. The jump and throw to get the back beaten up isn’t that bad, and when you play for a while you get good at timing falcon punch. This isn’t one of those Bioshock cinematic skips or something where you need to have a frame-perfect and very hard to reproduce input. You’d be able to…

I don’t know. Every strategy game I’ve ever played has become the story of a terrifying fascist regime that conquers its peace-loving neighbors. Have I been doing it wrong?
