That $200 coupon will probably entice a few people that might’ve bought the phone anyway. Clever gimmick. But for $70? I’m checking prices on similar inflatable chairs and they range from piece of shit $20 to actually kind of nice looking for $50.

Not me, but some friends of mine got stuck in the snow on Donner Pass on their way to Viva Ska Vegas. They naturally decided that one person who insisted that they would be able to make it over the pass despite not having chains (and where we’re from it never snows so none of them were very practiced at that kind of…

I’ve won pissing contest a couple times now and I always feel like I should add it to my resume or something. Definitely the highlight of my (otherwise shitty) week!

I get Library Centipedes behind my bookshelf all the time and nobody wonders if they are Magic Centipedes.

Can you be both an Independent Contractor, and have an enforceable Non compete? I think several have mentioned that’s how they were paid for video work, because apparently the magazine and the video side are separate entities.

I hope they will grow old without loved ones, withering away in the dark corridors of a third rate convalescent home.

Contracts get enforced in courtrooms, make CN eat the bad publicity over taking them to court. They’ve already eaten a mountain of shit in the court of public opinion, call their bluff.

Claire’s contract specifically expired right when all this was going down, so she could probably spearhead a version of this by herself and whoever she could grab from the BA team.

I am trying to remember if you can beat a non-compete if you move/work from a state where they are not valid.

Just here to look at Kotaku, look at the camera, and raise my fist at G/O Media with my “Jim Spanfeller is a Herb” sign. I’m sure I can make one for Condé Bast.

“It’s like this because the adults in the room don’t care...”

Hey, he looks great for his age!

So Ohio is in the Deep South now?
