As we’ve seen on a national scale for the last 8 years, laws are only things to worry about if there are consequences attached to breaking them.

Negotiation time during normal working hours must be paid by law. They’re just committing standard management fuckery to try and break the union.

The problem a lot of people seem to be unable to fully grasp is that an unfaithful adaptation isn’t necessarily a bad one. The Witcher Netflix series while not faithful to the source material is a great series. The same is true for the video game series.

John Carpenter’s The Thing is completely unfaithful to the source…

I just want to say that everytime I have gone into a gamestop the employees were doing their damndest to be polite and personable and considering how shitty the job is I want to thank them for not taking it out on the customers. You deserve better.

That doesn’t excuse it though, at the end of the day he’s still lamenting that someone talented died while someone (in his mind) less talented didn’t, which is shameful.

[Already posted this as a reply to someone else on a different article, so apologies to anyone reading this twice.]

In the right game, with the right framing, it’s possible that this kind of thing could be used as a poignant commentary on all sorts of different things - in general I don’t think video games should be exempt from doing that sort of thing just because they’re interactive.

So the same twist from the original game, how unique!

Lootboxes the way they were implemented in OW are perfectly fine design wise for most people. They incentivise playing the game and you don’t feel particularly forced to pay for them. I did buy a pack of them for like 20$ once in 2016 I believe and that was it.

“No one in this story seems particularly likable and I love it.” I see no issue with the person that should have won the truck. The article does not seem to make that person seem unlikeable. Or, did I miss something. 

No one in this story seems particularly likable...

It’s a little odd but one thing that’s a common trend with these kind of abusers is they’ll act very quickly to cover their tracks. They’ll put on their nice face and make amends and say they’ll get help when they’re caught. And sometimes they do... and sometimes it’s just a ploy to keep their victim from actually…

Judge: Mr Murray, you have been accused of sexual assault, and it has corroborated by several witnesses. What is your defence?

Murray also stayed by Radner’s side until the end when she was dying, and they remained great friends up until her final moments. As noted elsewhere here, he also punched Chevy Chase and devastatingly called him a “medium talent” for being insanely terrible to the women on SNL. Maybe he’s a human being with flaws,…

And he famously punched Chevy Chase, who was asking for it, backstage at SNL

I remember reading that he had a workplace affair with Gilda Radner and he broke her heart. Back then, workplace romances were pretty accepted but he BROKE HER HEART. 

First of all, I believe everyone who has a story to tell. These stories have been circulating for years.

Props to Reynolds for being a dick to TJ Miller.

Ironically, the tone of this article isn’t nearly snarky enough - TJ Miller talked with Adam Corolla about how shitty Ryan Reynolds is, and the headline isn’t “Second-Worst Guy From Silicon Valley Dumps on Ryan Reynolds to Second-Worst Guy From Loveline.”

Ah, yes, Ryan Reynolds being ‘mean’ is why you won’t be in any more Deadpool films. Sure... that’s it....
