testing the waters when he knew what would happen? He’s already had a video flagged before. After that Nintendo’s program was front page news and its only been a few months between that first event. Did he just think Nintendo would of changed its mind since then? Also he didn’t spend his own money on his wii u. His…

I had a table once whisper loudly to their children, "if you don't go to college, you'll end up waiting tables like her..." while I was prebussing their table.

"Your job is to serve us and do what we say. You're not supposed to talk back."

Re: Becca Page's story... I pity that woman. What an empty life she must lead, if she must assert her presumed superiority over others in that way. I mean, who does that? Throwing the cash on the ground because a service employee dares to have something in common with you? I wonder if she even remembers doing that.

Maybe they just assume that anyone seeing fighter jets flying overhead automatically gets a freedomgasim, and that the next time she got a freedomgasim she'd feel bad for denying those brave flyers their discount.

Along the same lines as Becca's story about people making assumptions about educational backgrounds, I waited tables at an Italian chain restaurant that falls between Olive Garden and Macaroni Grill in terms of cost/quality the summer between college and law school. Our clientele was generally pretty decent, and as a…

Gameplay footage is not fair use, as nothing about it is transformative. If you were to upload a review then that would be fair use, however talking over footage or just uploading footage is not fair use. That won’t change until this subject is involved in a court hearing.

I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know my cheddar biscuits will be free. And I won't forget the men who died, so I can bitch about automatic gratuity.

Ugh, not this shit again. There seems to be a rash of people demanding cakes with anti-gay messages on them, hoping to be rebuffed, as if a bakery refusing to write a hate message was the same as refusing to do business with gays. It isn't, not even fucking remotely. (Who the fuck sees those as being equivalent?) …

they should've made a rainbow cake that said 'I love gays' and handed it to the bigots while saying 'this one's on the house'

Oh, boy. Someone mentioned how the homosexual agenda!!1! was targeting businesses that wouldn't serve gay marriages or causes only to shame them when they declined to provide a service the other day. So, uh. *points to this*

I was in a band and on tour in the early 00’s. As we were leaving the western edge of Pennsylvania on our way to Dayton Ohio we gassed up at a station that had a hybrid Pizza Hut / KFC / and Blimpies food processing closet. Being a vegetarian roughly 5 hours from home I was overjoyed that the Blimpies, 1/3 of this…

Also, it’s not like they are universally sold out. They seem to still be producing the “Shelf Warmers” (Mario, Link, Peach), while not doing any others. I can only imagine it goes something like this:

I’m super disappointed with Nintendo on the Amiibo thing. I get that they’re hooked on this limited supply thing (which is a bullshit business model to begin with as it inherently creates winners and losers), but even doubling the supply would still make some of these Amiibos rare. Some of them are going for almost…

They’ve manufactured scarcity where none exists. That’s entirely on them.

The only people rushing to buy these fucking things are assholes that resell them on ebay.

I think I’m nearing the end of my patience with Amiibo. Clearly the children (or the majority of anybody else for that matter) who want these things won’t have them so anybody who wants one is competing with professional scalpers/ shut-ins given the hours that these were made available.
