    So Anita Sarkeesian and the ME3 ending are drowning in a whirlpool...

    In terms of their relative negative effect on the games industry, the ME3 ending is not nearly as bad as to warrant saving Sarkeesian over it. In this case, Sarkeesian literally can't argue a valid point to save her life.

    Problems you have had to face because of your gender

    You don't have to beat around the bush. You can just say it. And yes, it is a serious fucking gender-based problem to be told to "Shut up and Listen" [TM] to someone recount how fucking sad it is to, for example, be "harassed" by "over 100 guys in 10 hours" when the truth is you'd consider...

    Problems you have had to face because of your gender

    Listening to rather privileged people talking about how strangers have made sexual comments to them on the street whilst recalling the nightmare of actually living on the street for a few years, or listening to the self-same people talking about how "rape threats" or "gendered online harassment"...

    Six-Year-Old JRPG Beats Assassin's Creed Unity in Steam Charts

    The PS3 demo of it did a terrible job selling it on its qualities. I know I skipped out on it based off of the demo. I'm going to guess that led to its lackluster launch sales.

    I need a girlfriend game

    Most people aren't gaming hobbyists. It's not about "idiot" it's how much time and effort they're willing to invest. Someone who doesn't play games is going to have no idea how to articulate what they're "looking for" in a game.

    John Carmack Accused of Stealing ZeniMax Technology For Oculus

    So yeah, they're basically arguing they have property rights over John Carmack's mind. Anything he knows about VR technology belongs to them, apparently. This is one more nail in the coffin that is "justifications that remain for the imposition of copyright law".

    Driver kills boy, sues family for 1 million dollars

    I was well aware of the whole context, having read about this issue long before this thread showed up. The fact that she's countersuing doesn't make her countersuit any less baseless than before. Both her and her lawyer are retarded for even thinking "waaah waaaaaaaaaaaah my emotional trauma...

    How Cherry City Comic Con Created a Cosplay Crisis Before First Day

    This guys comments were spot on. But bad idea to be that abrasive about it when you're the PR of an organization. And then resorting to sockpuppeting? His handling of this was so bad. Wait, what? It's only easy to conclude such a thing if you're not sure how to form conclusions or how...

    Driver kills boy, sues family for 1 million dollars

    Her excuse is that her feelings were hurt. This is why the subculture of the left that is obsessed with glorifying feelings over facts pisses me right the fuck off: you end up with people actually believing it. I haven't read the comments yet, but watch someone defend this on the grounds...

    Check Your Privilege!

    Oddly enough, this is exactly how mine turned out. I even grew up in a middle class family.

    Megan Fox Wants to Star in a Live-Action Sailor Moon Movie

    I think a competent writer could do a Gundam-style plot if it was an original story. Show two sides of a conflict but pull a mind screw and make the audience think its different military units from the same side. Have them both talk up the other side as some kind of evil demons and give all...

    Feminists, we need to talk about fedoras

    Just because feminism is about "womens issues" does not require it to be a supremacist hate group that lacks principles. If that doesn't make sense to you I don't know what else to say. It's nice to see I struck a nerve, and I was correct in predicting a flight-or-flight emotional attack...

    Feminists, we need to talk about fedoras

    The point is that it seems most ideological feminists fundamentally don't believe in any of the feminist ideology on principle, only when doing so serves to benefit women. Feminists appear to be okay with rape, genital mutilation, domestic violence, body policing, sexuality shaming et cetera...

    Regimental Chess Is Chess, But With Six Boards And 372 Pieces

    So I take it you profess complete ignorance regarding both examples I gave, eh? Professional rock paper scissors is about reading the psychological and biological tells your opponent exudes. Knowledge, practice, and aptitude play greatly into this. It's why proper RPS tournaments play more...

    Regimental Chess Is Chess, But With Six Boards And 372 Pieces

    No qualifiers required. Rock paper scissors is mathematically perfect and purely a game of skill. Your original statements had absolutely no reference to "strategy", just some vaguely defined notion of "skill". ...except, they already aren't? The only thing that differs from one side or...
