Best username/post combo I've seen in a while. Also, that thing looks delicious though I would only be able to finish like a quarter of it before I let him polish off the rest.

Don't get me wrong, it looks delicious but I'm not quite sure what it actually is.

To be fair, Kibler is movie star hot. Like, I would rail him from behind while giving him a handjob while he talks to me about the dirtiest neckbeard matches he's had hot.

Oh, it's not over.

What I don't understand is why people post that on a chat. I compare the attractiveness of girls and guys with friends all the time but don't do it in public with people I don't know.  edit: Except for Kibler.

Didn't say I was OK with it, but you should really understand by now that stream chats are echo chambers of pure trolling. I'm just not quite sure of what quoting some of their witticisms achieves. Maybe it's worse in fighting game streams, most people I know just don't open the chat.

I'm just not quite sure of what quoting some of their witticisms achieves. A small group of people willing to say "wow, that is really lovely. What the gently caress is wrong with those people?" is what lets people say "well, this hobby has bad people in it, but it also has good people in it, so it's pretty much like everything else ever". If no one ever made 'pointless' comments about how lovely sexist behaviour in the hobby is, the hobby would appear to be full of nothing but sexists and people not bothered by sexism. And that's the sort of thing that leads to non-sexists leaving the hobby and women not wanting to get involved in the hobby in the first place. Unless you think that nerds being terrible people is literally a fact of life, inherent to their unchanging nature, there's absolutely no downside to calling out sexist behaviour on stream chat, and a whole bunch of upsides. Also saying "I don't understand the point of discussing this" is actually saying you are okay with the status quo (which, in case you aren't following, is "not discussing this"). So if you honestly aren't okay with sexist behaviour, you should not be attempting to shut down discussion about how crappy it is. And yes, saying "I think discussing this is pointless" is a way of trying to shut down discussion about it.

I guess it's a step forward that they at least aren't l knocking her playskill for no reason? I dunno. I agree, it is super telling that the only way they can parse her is whether they would or would not have sex with her. That seems really depressing and lonely. I'm looking forward to watching the stream when she's doing commentary. That should be fun. Some Magic: the Gossiping: we went out on a party bus with Chapin and sundry pros. It was fine until Radha started barfing because she's like 12. Later, Tom Martell asked someone for a cigarette and apparently got a joint instead. We last saw him back at the hotel watching an EDH match and talking about how he had no idea what was going on. Pretty surreal night.

Kinda bummed with the reprint art for Bloodbraid Elf, she's gone from certified scrawny but tough bad rear end to generic pretty anime girl. The new art feels so generic  For comparison Old;  New;

I remember telling Steve Argyle at a signing that his illustration makes it look like she's really bored and he gave me a dirty look. Then again, both of them look bored.

In Steve Argyle's world, braiding your hair with the blood and sinew of the slain gives you immaculate silky hair.

I think you guys are kinda grasping at straws. It's not like she became titelf sexybraid here. Most of the time in fantasy, even going back as far as LotR, elves are pretty much immaculate creatures. All he's done is make her not look anorexic.

I don't actually have like any political kind of beef with that card. I just thought it was funny that pretty much the distinguishing thing about Bloodbraid Elf as a concept is its gnarly hosed up hair and he whiffed it.

I've never tried it but I imagine braiding your hair with blood and sinew is gonna lead to some coarse dreadlock kinda style like the original. Even Argyle seemed to think so when he did the FTV art for Kresh.

You know, most creatures with haste have their art reflect it in some way: they're in the middle of attacking, they're just about to attack, they're in motion of some kind, maybe they're even just leaning forward. Both of those elves are just standing there. I wouldn't think either of them were hasty at all.

Oh no i didn't mean to insinuate that at all, i was just posting at how boring i thought the new art is compared to the old one. I just really liked the gaunt and determined feel of the original art, though now i can't get the idea that she smelt the fart of the dude in front of her and that's why she looks so pissed out of my head now

MAELSTROM PULSE! loving DEAD!" "A pack of dragons? I got this poo poo, check this - OH poo poo a leech?! What the gently caress?! RUN!"

Lucas Florent's lifetime ban for threatening to surprise sex Helene Bergeot (context: http://www.gatheringmagic.com/playe...zards-employee/) has apparently been changed to a one-year ban, at least according to Twitter. I'm somewhat surprised that Wizards backtracked on such a serious matter, but they seem to have been doing it multiple times lately (Matignon's ban was also shortened significantly). It seems odd to me personally since MTG pro players are essentially ambassadors of your game - do you really want someone who's going to say those kinds of things representing you?

Shortening Matignon's ban seemed like a decent thing to do, honestly, but I too am really surprised that they relented on a case of threatened sexual violence. I wonder what the reasoning was. I don't believe that people should never be given a chance to turn over a new leaf but I haven't heard anything about Florent making an abject apology and going on a lecture circuit telling kids about how not to be a horrible person, which is about the degree of mitigating factors I'd be looking for if I were hypothetically in charge of this.

It's all about intent. People say stuff all the time they don't mean literally, the meaning of words in the English language change depending on the context. If you were brought up in an environment where saying "surprise sex" is an acceptable euphemism for "destroy" (read 'I will destroy you' instead of 'I will surprise sex you') then it's easy to understand why he would make such a throwaway comment not realising how offensive it is. The kid was an idiot and deserved punishment but a lifetime ban is just plain ridiculous because in my eyes he didn't try to deliberately offend anyone, he just wasn't smart enough to realise he was being offensive.
