I knew a guy once. He lost his Lord of the Family status in a best-of-three NBA Jam TE series.

Now his son writes him in as a dependent on his taxes. Boomshakalaka.

As it stands, white people wearing dark makeup to appear black is the continuation of a practice tied to the mocking of black people

how is she mocking black people in that cosplay? Is she acting out stereotypes? Using props? I dare you show me a tweet were she is being racist in any way.

No. That is exactly what the context isn’t. Just because thing 1 makes you think of thing 2, that doesn’t mean your POV is the context. 

I agree! You should only cosplay as your own race. We don’t need to be insensitive. Everyone can stay in their lane. White people can cosplay white people, Europeans can cosplay European people, black people can cosplay black people...for those that want to push it...how about cosplaying as a nice dragon! It would be…

I’m starting to feel like we’re getting to a point where nothing is allowed. I mean, the context here, for example. She isn’t making fun of black people in any way. She’s trying to remain true to the character, who happens to be black. It would be one thing if she had done something deliberately offensive, but she’s…

The best villains to actually root for are the ones you’re not supposed to take seriously. i.e. Loki from Thor or Simon Phoenix from Demolition Man and they’re fun.

I can wait 6 months.

I kind of agree here. Mostly because of the nature of BR in general, I feel it might actually be better if there wasn't a proper way for name brand players to practice officially. Since itll basically kill off casual players. Kind of like how there's probably a bunch of nobody people for Fighting Games who are better…

Untapped Post Apocalypse (game) scenario: Water World.

This. Toadette was already an “ette” before even touching the Super Crown. The Super Crown does not bestow “ette”ness. It bestows Peachness.

It still makes me irrationally angry that the Internet Collective Hivemind™ name for the Peach-Bowser hybrid is Bowsette. No, I don’t care that the Peach-Bowser portmanteaus sound dumb. Peachette is named because she’s a Peach-Toadette fusion, Peach-Bowser should follow the same rules.

Perhaps “Player” in the title should instead be “Hacker”? I mean yeah he’s a player too, but I wouldn’t write e.g. “Human discovers that Zelda has a minus world.” Would be nice to know right off the bat that you can’t access this content through playing the game.

“I have some quibbles with Rowling’s world building—how does magic work, exactly?”

Yes, but let’s not immediately shit on what seems like a pretty decent idea that might actually save lives.  For once.

I don’t want to nitpick too much, and you even address the same issue within your first sentence using parenthesis, but I don’t want any reference to ‘swatting’ to be called anything other than a crime. It’s utter nonsense that it’s even something people are doing. Using language to reduce the severity of the act…

I’m guessing “We programmed it so we could giggle like a bunch of hormonal 12 year old boys during testing but then forgot to take it out again” didn’t make for very good spin.

You don’t need to end your thought with “that is all”. Just stop typing: when the reader runs out of words, they’ll realize that you’ve finished your thought and have, in fact, put it “all” out there. You’re not ending a CB transmission or making a PA announcement to your MASH unit. I’ll never understand the need for…

Okay, here’s the thing. This article is kind of funny, and it’s absolutely true that fantasy football is pretty dumb (although I do play) and mock drafts are completely idiotic.
