I think the problem with those games is that they’re designed to exploit our instincts towards gambling. As the developers get lazier and stop putting as much effort in to the illusion of having a game underneath people are increasingly turned off by them. 

Hell, BioWare inexplicably pulled resources away from the development of the next game in their flagship series to work on this clunker. Many of Mass Effect Andromeda’s problems can be blamed on Anthem, and that failure basically killed the entire Mass Effect series.

Also Bojangles wisely staked our the “fried chicken with a side of Jesus for people who think Chik-fil-A is just too fancy” territory. All their commercials have just enough “good old fashioned values” signaling to draw in the people who really want to try to fit owning the libs into their lunch schedule too. 

I find Cookout vaguely unsettling. It’s just too much food too cheaply. It’s not very good food, exactly, but there’s so much of it! Something has to be horribly wrong in the kitchen.

I’m so tired of people known for making amazing single player experiences like BioWare and Bethesda deciding to throw those traditions out the window and try to grab their share of the endless “multiplayer games as a microtransaction-riddled live service” money train. Partially because I prefer single player games,…

Yes, your lack of empathy and glib “why not pull another job from the Job Tree” dismissal of a hostile workplace environment DOES sound very Fox Newsy. Maybe next time you should use that as a helpful warning that your thoughts are dumb and should be kept to yourself. 

And you’re the reason why, Cletus. 

Yeah, you can fuck right off with this sociopathic nonsense. 

Wait, “make sure he receives the full total he requested?” Does that mean this raging dickwhistle is only going to give him the $50,000 and not the full amount he would normally have gotten? It sounds like he’s still committed to finding a way to screw this caddie over. 

“We’re Democrats, you knew we were going to cave eventually. Why act surprised?”

Candace Owens choosing to live in a town called Plantation is so on-the-nose that if it were a plot point in a movie I’d reject it for being too unrealistically perfect.

Or the benign explanation is less benign than it appears. What if the older and less reliable machines were deliberately concentrated on certain precincts?

Zelda 2 is the Halloween 3 of video games. Weird, experimental, and totally underappreciated.

Exactly. Christlike Christians are probably fantastic people, but I’ve lived in America for most of my life and I’ve never met a single goddamned one.

Filed to “GIRL WTF” is right, there are so many things wrong with this premise I’d need some sort of PowerPoint presentation to fully address them. But just off the top of my head:

Birmingham doesn’t have any professional sports teams. I’ve always liked the Birmingham Barons, the local AA affiliate of the White Sox. As far as football goes college ball is king for pretty much the entire state (Roll Tide) but NFL-wise most people either like the Saints or the Falcons.

I didn’t know you lived here! If I ever run in to you downtown I’m buying you a beer, least I could do after enjoying so many of your articles.

It’s a shame that Conway is almost certainly full of shit about the details, because she absolutely DOES deserve everything that she’s pretending happened to her. 

Lady, if you REALLY weren’t that stupid person from high school anymore you would have a different job. 

You know what’s funny? The fact that the only people on earth who have more contempt for you than I do are the ones whose boots you keep furiously licking.
