Lot of folks here at the root calling for these children’s blood. Be careful what you ask for; little Shitavious isn’t exactly a saint either...

This article is fucking gross, TBH. Kate should be fired for this.

respects is audience... yea, thats why they bash on gamers every chance they get.

Old school Gawker is not the humblebrag you think it is.  

Donald Trump still can’t comprehend how Obama earned a Nobel Peace Prize.

Kotaku has done some good reporting and insightful commentary on the phenomenon in the past. This is not one of those articles and is rather... poorly written.

Man, this site will publish literally anything to stir the pot, huh?
