The heavy sigh that escapes you upon hearing new slang that you immediately hate, realizing it's gonna be like 3 years before people stop saying it

nice try you're not gonna trap me in a cage with [SCARY CREATURE] to get information on my fellow hexbears

All I know is I put that shit in my coffee and I love it.

I got enough problems without worrying about whether or not it's any worse for me than inhaling car exhaust while going for a walk.

Good question! I loved Might and Magic 6 as a kid even though I had no idea what the hell I was doing. Would love to play a (relatively) more modern version of that kinda game. I'm gonna check this thread again later!

yes

good

Oh, you don't wanna wake up at 8am every morning and handle insurance claims?

How about if I put this gun to the back of your head? Do you wanna do it then?

You're welcome comrades

My friend was telling me about how the lady his best friend married was walking by the TV when some show was talking about the stars and she said "fake news!" My friend chuckled at first thinking it was some dumb joke but apparently after his best friend married her she became a flat-Earther who does not believe the stars are real, or at least they're not actually stars. I think about that a lot, and am terrified that anyone I associate with can suddenly become deranged in that way at any random point.

genuinely sad when you put it this way

Mostly his WoW video putting the entirety of the blame for the way the game turned out on the playerbase, which is in actuality only half true. In reality, Blizzard made very conscious decisions to cater to all the toxic bullshit he talks about in the video, and as someone who played the game while it was all unFOLDING I got to see it in real time. I played with many people who very vocally did NOT want the game to be what it has become, and every step of seeing it unfold the way it did we all bemoaned it as everyone dropped off one by one. And yet, the mass exodus of players from the game as it gradually warped into what we see today goes entirely unmentioned by his video. Instead he wants to pretend that Blizzard execs didn't make conscious decisions like putting one of the most obnoxious types of WoW players in the lead dev spot, and put the fault entirely on the players with the shittiest mindset, while ignoring the rest of us.

And now I get to listen to those same players talk about what a tragedy it is that the inevitable will of the masses has led us down the path to drudgery, as if that's all it ever was going to be.
