    How the hell did Game of Thrones get its 'OMG Anyone Could Die' reputation?

    I'm not sure I get how people can complain that they aren't just randomly offing main characters left and right anymore. There aren't that many left, and there's still a whole other season to get through! At some point you're going to have to start slapping on some plot armor or you'll be having...

    Why doesn't Reddit have the same bad rep Tumblr has?

    Since when has Reddit not had a bad rep? From my experience, you don't ever post a link to Reddit in any discussion you're having, because it will be instantly disregarded without being read and you will be instantly labeled as not only a dude, but a full-on MRA dude who screeches about...

    Blizzard is Seeking $8.5 Million in Damages From Cheat Maker

    Yeah, it's this thing called "putting everyone on an equal footing" as opposed to "letting people who can afford it get an unfair advantage over people who can't". Shocking, isn't it?

    Blizzard is Seeking $8.5 Million in Damages From Cheat Maker

    Rule 1 of modding: Don't try to sell the mods, you dumbass. At least then, when you're screwing people trying to play the game the right way, you're not actually making money off of screwing people over. Sympathy level: 0

    Report: PewDiePie YouTube Series Cancelled Due to Anti-Semitic Posts

    The people screaming "slander!!!!!111onnnnneeeee!" crack me up. First, the term is libel. Second, there's no libel there. He made an anti-semitic joke. He got fired for said joke. It's not like they made the joke up out of whole cloth. This is a joke he is documented as actually pulling...

    Zero Punctuation: Inside & Shadow of the Beast

    "You will die like a Game of Thrones supporting actor demanding a salary increase." AHAHAHAHAhaha...hahaha...ha... *sob* Don't remind me, damn it. (Though I had to laugh at the use of the word "stark" in the very next sentence.)

    Poll: UK Standardized Smoking Packages Law in Final Stages

    How about this: you keep those pictures of ruined lungs on cigarette packages, but only if you start putting pictures of clogged arteries or feet covered with ghastly diabetic wounds on packages of fatty foods. What? We won't do that? Only to smokers? Of course. Because to talk about the...

    Poll: A sensitive question about transgender and locker rooms

    My opinion: People are way too obsessed with dangly bits or lack thereof. Once upon a time, white people were uncomfortable with having black people eating next to them. Eventually we (well, most of us, at least) grew out of it and stopped giving a fuck. Trust me, ladies, guys have already...

    EA Closing Down Maxis's Main Studio

    As another poster mentioned, we mourn what Maxis was before EA destroyed it. Save your disgust for EA. And for those saying "Oh, goodbye Sims 2, SimCity 3000, etc." it's not like these games are going to disappear, and they haven't been supported for years, so...nothing really is changing...

    What's with all the ban requests?

    It's pretty simple: Childish attention seeking. Mature people who don't want to participate in the site anymore would just leave and not come back. People who want attention for it have to make a big fuss about it and make sure everyone knows that they're leaving and not coming back. As if...

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

    Did you even bother to read the person's post as to why they posted this? He was making a joke about big gaming controversies.

    A professional, objective, apolitical future for The Escapist...

    God damn it, Escapist. I applauded you for firing Moviebob for his nasty and unprofessional behavior on Twitter, so you....hire this guy? Who seems to be even worse? Color me disappointed.

    MovieBob leaving The Escapist

    How do I know that? He doesn't make any distinctions. Neither did the SVU episode he claimed was "spot on".

    MovieBob leaving The Escapist

    Were you really expecting those exact words? That's a bit dishonest. You should know better. His audience on The Escapist were largely gamers. Go see what he says about gamers.

    MovieBob leaving The Escapist

    Oh man, you just reminded me of the straw that broke the camel's back for me when it came to having any respect for the man. When he went on a two episode rant about how if you don't like Sucker Punch, you just "didn't get it". That was one of his more mild moments of insulting his audience...
