Watch in awe as a Citizen gets dogpiled for voicing a concern that he feels his $1205 should perhaps get him an expansion pack thrown in:

CIG are now selling a single player game and taking the cash for it, but there's no footage of any gameplay yet let alone a release date. This is bizarre. If Ubisoft rocked up and said they were going to take the money up front for an advance copy of the next Assassin's Creed and they weren't going to show you what it looked like they'd get loving laughed at.

Hmm... for it to really be sold as an accident you need witnesses. Preferably the boss herself. If she sees it go down and believes it's an accident, no questions will be asked.

So you're gonna need a couple things:

One wooden A-frame ladder, 6 or 8 feet high depending on how high the ceiling in your office is

One gallon of paint similar to (or exact, if you can find it) the paint color in your office

One hacksaw

Saw off one of the legs of the ladder, then set it up somewhere in the office, resting precariously on the removed leg. Place the speakers, paint can, and paint brush on top of the ladder, preferably near some kind of stain or damaged paint if you have any of that in your office. When your boss asks where her speakers are, tell her they said something about finally painting over that drat spot. She'll go to get them, the ladder will "break" and the speakers will fall to their death. Maybe you can even angle for a mental health day - watching someone fall off a ladder and die is potentially traumatizing!

Any plan that involve sabotage of the speakers themselves is a no go since it will be solved by buying new speakers with company money. I would suggest a social engineering solution instead.

Find the music or artist she likes best and then find horrible trivia about how <Favorite artist> is a horrible <racist, nazi, mean to the disabled, hurt annimals, not support our troops, ect> then drop subtle hints around the topic in office conversation untill the music stop or change.

That or you can pretend ear drums damage or tinitus and carry foarm earplugs for those awfull music moments.

Well if they got by speaker cloth, just remove it and tear it through with a key or something, then replace cloth

Just start taking the plug the speakers go into the computer and rotate it at the base where the plug and wire meet for a good 5 minutes every once in a while. Eventually the wires will short out and they'll stop working or be super spotty

Some additions to that: Put the pepper and salt into the beaten eggs, add a little milk or cream to it, too. One of the most important things to do though: after you dipped the meat in the breadcrumbs press them into the meat with all your weight. (Lean on it from both sides with your flat hands and put all your weigth on it.) Let the prepared Schnitzels rest for a few minutes and then press again from both sides. Use plenty of butter to get an even browning. (I usually use half butter half palm oil to get a more heat stable environment.)

Always serve Schnitzel with a slice of lemon.

Vienna style double crust: Beaten eggs -> wheat -> beaten eggs -> breadcrumbs -> press -> rest -> press.

OK I know I'm a few pages late on this, but I think we need a PAAARP slider that runs from 0 to PAAARP. The slider must be non-movable and fixed to maximum (PAAARP) and clicking on it just triggers airhorn.wav

If it goes down further, we should all chip in and buy it, strip the internals and resell them for charity, then upload a video to youtube of the super limited edition case being smashed to pieces and burned.

CIG are now selling a single player game and taking the cash for it, but there's no footage of any gameplay yet let alone a release date. This is bizarre.

Hi guys, just doing the one thing I had to do today, which is letting you know that no progress has been made with the game. Also, I wanted to get your feedback if I have to tell you that every week, or if I can just get paid to do literally nothing. I SERVE YOU GUYS but if it's okay for me to abdicate this laughably useless responsibility, please post (or don't post) in this thread. Okay, got to get back to counting crowdfunded money now, bye!

Hey guys apparently I sound really angry on Twitter.

They're not just selling a single player game. They're soliciting donations for the delivery of a single player game. They call it a preorder but I guarantee that if you demand a refund three weeks from now they'll deny it on the same basis they've used for everyone else.

But

I can vouch for the terror of watching someone fall twenty feet, though. That was in my stagehand days. The guy didn't die, though he certainly got more luck than he deserved since it was his own drat fault.


If only. It's always lovely saccharine show tunes, and I can't wear earplugs or headphones of my own since I have to answer the phone.


There's a thought. I wish they'd leave so I could go look at them/break them right row.


Hmm. I like it.

I once wrecked a pair of earbuds when I was squatting down to clean under something, and I didn't realize I'd put my foot on the cord until it was too late and I stood back up with my foot still on the cord. The wire inside the cord disconnected completely, but it still looked normal from the outside. Perhaps I can get away with that.


This is good. We did indeed do a double crust with two of the four pieces. (Friday night was another cooking lesson; Bootcha learned about breading and breadcrumbs.) I didn't think about adding milk even though I almost always use it with eggs when doing breading, but I will remember for next time.
