This comment is cool because it made me actually go and double check. Depending on the decade, I could have had an exciting life in servitude to Chinese, Japanese or even Russian occupiers. It’s true what they say, variety really is the spice of life.

Pretty huge gap between liking Pride and Prejudice and this shit.

It really feels like a huge bummer seeing Kotaku cover every single tiny HotS thing, even hyping up ‘NEVER BEFORE DONE HERO, WOW, SO UNIQUE’ and then like The International 2015 was an amazing and enormous tournament with huge stories and got like a three sentence blurb.

I’m so confused by this comment. What ocean? What happens to dogs near the ocean? What is going on?

Which leads to things like gratuitous…

Yeah, I wonder why demonstrating gameplay in a first look for established franchises would be less critical than for a standalone title. Hm.

This is some dumb shit for someone who is just *so smart* that he didn’t fit in.

If you’re really sincere and interested, and not just getting ranty because something annoys you, then there’s a lot of reading you can do about Asian-American identity, masculinity, toxic masculinity and a lot of the ways Asian men in American culture try and deflect or cope with a society that tries very hard to…

It never gets old!
