You guys think this is all fun and games, but #GamerGate has you on a blacklist. They will not buy products from this website.

I don't know what the gently caress #gamergate is. But Zoe Quinn is funny because she thought her flow wand video was cool enough to upload:

I'm real concerned with the state of modern journalism. I depend on it, to know which games are worth buying and playing. Ukraine? bah. West Bank? who cares. Ferguson? never heard of it. I care about actual journalism, see.

Aw yes, this is why lovely Somethingawful forums poster and irl insufferable blowhard "ableist kinkshamer" has, since hearing about the 9/11 attacks at the tender age of 4 years old, non-stop read and blogged about the geopolitical ramifications of the event, in lieu of such things as "socializing," playing video games, or "having a life."

Truly he is the greatest human alive, the only one who understands the true meaning of life.

I came across mention of a Gnostic codex called The Unreal God and the Aspects of His Nonexistent Universe, an idea which reduced me to helpless laughter. What kind of person would write about something that he knows doesn't exist, and how can something that doesn't exist have aspects?
I'm mad at this thread for making me look up what this even is.

There's some kind of conspiracy by the in-group to promote indie games at the expense of "real" games? What the gently caress are you talking about? Who cares who Zoe Quinn hosed, or didn't gently caress? It's none of your loving business, unless you were one of the people involved, and most of you would give your left kidney to gently caress her, if you had any brains. You are unlikely ever to touch anyone with an iota of her talent or intelligence.

i finally looked at the #gamergate hashtag and i'm still confused. it's like watching a mob stampede down a street burning all the buildings. "why are you burning random buildings" i ask and some infuriated fanatic starts shouting "WELL THIS GAME JOURNALIST AT KOTAKU WAS DATING ZOE QUINN AND..."

the best part of this whole dumb thing so far was probs after zoe posted all those chatlogs of 4chan people deliberately planning the whole #gamergate thing w/ the weirdo anti-sjw agenda front and centre that they swore and still swear up and down they didnt/dont have, when her ex loudly complained htat she only posted the stuff that made him look bad, confirming that she didnt make the logs up before they could start claiming that, and giving the potentially legally-actionable stuff within firmer footing

the funniest part was zoe posting a chatlog with the subtext of "hey look at me! don't forget about me" even though the whole thing had moved way beyond her and there was nothing but a sparsely populated chat room full of 4chan rejects that she had "discovered," for her twitter account.

hey have you thought about updating your avatar to a more modern beard style?

How about this:


Mustaches are out of style now. Instead of "pensive" you could use "progressive" for your custom text.
