I did this the last time it happened. I was not working a regular 9-5 but living off unemployment, savings, and some inheritance money I had gotten and wanted to supplement my income and show Unemployment I was working, and I thought it would be interesting and easy. I was right on both counts.

It’s fairly common in New York, especially if the place does small plates or has a prix fixe option.

Sounds 2% short, you mutton-chopped SOB!

The only thing more depressing than that is knowing that corporate market testing revealed it had a net positive effect on guests, because people are idiots.

I don’t find it condescending at all, but then I figure they’re just doing their jobs and it’s their job to say that kind of stuff to everyone, regardless.

Sounds like you live in an area where you can avoid corporate places. They ALL ask this question. 

Found the rant.

I left it unfinished because I hated the weapon breaking mechanic.

Either you’re a “Ken M” level commenter in which case, well done, or I think we just identified why Trump is President of our country more than any New York Times profile about small town economic anxiety ever could.

Because what Trump voters think is funny is insulting women, immigrants, minorities, veterans, Gold Star parents, people with disabilities, LGBTQ, longtime international allies, etc. etc.

You believe that the author actually considers this “cool”? Did you read the text of the article? Do you have any comprehension of tone at all?

This is such an awesome comment.

If you’re a conservative, not rich, and voted Dump, you’re a fool. Seriously. He’s not for you. He doesn’t care about you. In fact he doesn’t give a rat’s rear about you. All he cares about is how much you’ll cheer for him at his creepy wannabe-Nuremberg rallies. That’s it.

That’s not false.  Intellectual property that you have intentionally kept secret and not shared outside of the company is a trade secret, regardless of how simple you think it is.

OMG he’s so cool, I love how he sticks it to those evil gaming bad men by ruining all their hard work for 5 minutes of glorious fame. I’m definitely not being sarcastic at all, he’s so cool and definitely not a dick head.

Or you could just wait until after the show or after each conference, when all that information is out there, and let the rest of us still have our fun. This seems to be no different, for you, than if a leaker tells you this information before each event.

What *should* Nintendo do about people who leak trade secrets?

Right? Who hires lawyers?! 

Why is that depressing?
