There is nothing worse than men in their 50's+ arguing over arcade games in their 40's+. I know it’s great to see a douche get his comeuppance, because it is, but this very tale speaks to the fundamental toxicity so present in gaming, drawing all the way back to the stank-ass arcade cabinets that were so vogue before…

Being too much of an insufferable prick, unfortunately, does not null the Hippocratic Oath.

But they are doing the opposite, tho: keeping gaming away from politics.

Lol, he is literally the worst.

Does she even remember she was in a cowgirl western with Lil’ Kim and LisaRaye?

Unfortunately, no, not for me - Matt Smith looks like one of the old California Raisins singers from back in the day left out in the sun for decades.

Oil money is the dirtiest money. Like, bedrock dirty, and I don’t mean Flintstones. It is the literal dirtfloor most underhanded dealings in the governments of countries begin at.

I almost thought this was another Multiverse character announcement at first, because why the hell not at this point?

I’m sure Shia LeBouf’s accent would have been better.

And us being on the outside of 2 grown-folks arrangement, all we can do is speculate and cast needless judgement.

What good can be had by lowly commenters like us scrutinizing this so, tho? What purpose does this serve, outside of killing unproductive time at work/on lunch?
