That looks like the horror story of a non-unionized industry, probably not what you intended to say.

“I have it bad so I don’t care if other people have it bad” is not a productive attitude.

Sounds like some people need a Union.

I know of no other industry where 100 hour weeks are the norm and the burnout rate is less than 5 years.

...uh huh.

hey asshat, how about no one should burn themselves out to work in any part of the tech industry? this isn’t the goddamn burnout olympics; if it’s true that 75 hour work weeks are normal in the IT industry then they need to get their fucking shit together the same as the gaming industry.

I disagree. I don’t think that Charlie Hunnam would make a good Idris Elba at all.

I’ve always said it's a movie that should never be remade. It's a perfect 80s time capsule of weirdness that shouldn't be fucked with. Carpenter not being remotely involved is also a huge reason to not see this out of protest

Filipina nannies know how to make those delicious Tagalog Cookies. 

Just borrow the cell of that one crazy aunt/uncle that still somehow wants to “Make America Great Again” and get them added to the list.

Monique, unlike the NYT, the White House keeps track of folks who call. So, I’m not calling them so I can end up on some dumb petty ass list Sanders and Trump devise to punish folks who do call.

esports in all of its maturity, everyone.

Yes, AMC “investigations” of “will we lose more money to keep Hardwick or to get rid of him” 

“This story is stranger, and sadder, than it initially appears.”

He applies “why don’t they make the whole plane out of the black box?” reasoning to literally everything.
