Man, good memories. Sold a lot of heroin on that thing in high school.

I look forward to this becoming a 50-comment thread with somebody who purports not to get why this could be racist.

Fun story: in law school, a group I participated in got a Wii, which was still relatively new at the time. Obama was the first Mii we made, and then over the next few months, pretty much everybody made a Mii or had one made for them. Most of them had pretty standard facial expressions, but I made mine look really

Whew, I was all ready to feel like I’d missed something by not playing any since Link to the Past. Glad that didn’t happen! Now I just need the FFVI review to validate my never playing a Final Fantasy after that...

I was thinking that it was blackmail related to the time that the rich man had a ‘stache, or to something that he did while he had said ‘stache. Based on how unacceptable I looked the one time I had a mustache (for a Halloween costume), that seems totally reasonable.

Can’t wait for the Ortiz-Brady Senate race in 2022.

I swear, one day I’ll play something other than Binding of Isaac...

As far as you know, were any of the folks in the Trump administration directly involved in GamerGate? Or are they just kindred spirits?

What indie designer would you most like to see get $100M to make a AAA game however they want?

Will there ever be a good video game movie? If so, what franchise?

... what if I’m a Final Fantasy fan who hasn’t played one since FFIII (yeah, yeah, FFVI, whatever)?

Never played an MMORPG, thinking of trying. Where would you start?

Are there any video games that would help us train for being conscripted into an invasion of Australia?

Aside from the Konami Code, what’s your favorite video game cheat?

Yeah, I went through the same thought process. Also, I never finished Transistor — the combat was just too clunky. But Bastion is one of my favorite games. Should I give Transistor another shot?

It was just mistranscribed. “I think the contributions of Frederick Douglas will beat Tom More and more.” Bannon just compared himself to Thomas Cromwell, so it fits.

Barry: Those are the pictures?

It makes more sense if you pretend he’s playing a version of Exquisite Corpse. He can only think about the preceding sentence when speaking the current one, and if the preceding sentence didn’t have a boast or an insult then the current one has to.

Either that or old dudes - my New Vegas courier was short with thinning hair, and my Dark Souls characters tend to look decrepit even when they’re not hollowed.
