In my experience, their printers do work quite well...when they work. 

Capitalism doing what it does best.

That was my thought. Doesn’t seem worth it in the end.

Players have a limit of eight strikes—once they reach that number, they’ll be kicked off Xbox’s social features, including messaging, party chat, and multiplayer “for one year from the enforcement date.”

There’s only one Chipotle near me and it absolutely sucks. My best option for Mexican fast casual is usually Moe’s or somewhere local.

Man, Cool Boarders was the shit.

Sounds like these guys did the “refuge in audacity” thing (look it up on TV Tropes) and just showed up with the jack looking like they belonged there and went about their business with nobody questioning it.

Um, it was the white folks that started swinging first. 

Not related to this post, but for the past week I’m having a recurring issue where I click to read an article or a “load comments” button and I get taken to some kind of Verizon promotional site.

I’m really not a fan of influencer culture.

This reminds me of that person who sued Subway a few years back because their footlongs were actually a little shy of being 12 inches long.

My list is pretty short, but Patrick Stewart hasn’t done wrong by me yet.

It would be tough to claim this a parody. A parody is something that is mean to poke fun at another creative work. There is nothing (intentionally) comical about this game. It’s meant to be taken seriously within its own universe.
