Jennifer Weiner has been living off this same exhaustingly self-absorbed, back-handed complimenting, How Do I Make This About Me? schtick for 20+ years.

“people being mean online creates nazis”

The only controversy is that GDQ organizers don’t vet the speedrunners. There’s nothing hazy about suspending a shitty right wing troll.

Femanazi was coined by Limbaugh to apply to any feminist. Claiming it means something else is intellectually dishonest 

This but completely unironically

Oh ffs, even here I can’t get away from this bullshit “GDQ is full of *drama*” narrative?

Guy goes to private function, private function decides they don’t want him based on past behaviour, they revoke his right to attend.

I’ll say, CX-5 drivers certainly do drive like luxury car drivers... 6 inches from your bumper after you just checked the empty mirror 2 seconds ago.

Ill take smooth and comfortable all day long over speed most of the time, and its not like they are horribly slow by any means

My 2010 Speed 3 is fine inside, as hot hatches go. Ditto on my wife’s 2010 CX-7, it’s not bad, mostly leather, some hard plastics.

So many people want exactly that, though. That is why there are so, so many four-banger Mustangs and Camaros, V6 Challengers, etc out there. (NB: Some of those are awesome cars)

For an economy hatchback, they handle surprisingly well. They are not in any way fast but that is not unlike the corolla, forte, civic, etc

What major failures have you experienced all at once? I have a mz3 hatch and just clocked 150k. I’ve replaced some wear and tear things but nothing catastrophic or unexpected. I will say, I do not enjoy working on it.

I don’t think people are really lusting for “things millionaires have” trying to purchase a car that competes with the Civic, Corolla, Elantra and Forte.
I personally love what Mazda has done in terms of design and driving dynamics for the price point, I think the 14-18 was definitely a high water mark for them and a…

I read that the head of Respawn gets a ton of respect and even deference from the higher ups at EA so he can effectively protect Respawn’s vision for a game from upper management meddling.

never play a game with difficulty levels on the hardest difficulty. ALWAYS play on normal, and if you really like the game, play it a second time on hard. Games are never properly playtested on hard mode, use hard for replayability.

I died 30 times to animals on normal and I hate myself right now

I’m not going to tell anyone NOT to play it on hard, I started on hard and I’m enjoying it, but I’m about one more cheap death away from dropping it down to normal.

I died 5 times in the fucking tutorial mission, and a dozen or so on the first planet. The training wheels planet...the combat in this game is not fucking…

Well, as I said, I tried them all, and I found them beyond my abilities. I spent 8-10 hours trying to get into Bloodborne, and I never even made it to any of the actual bosses.

Well, then I’m just garbage at video games, because I spent a good 8-10 hours banging my head against Bloodborne, and I still never even made it to any of the actual “bosses.”
