It's been one year since I tapped into whatever mental illness lies dormant in my mind and built something amazing. This desk is massive and comfortable, imagine what I can do if I put my mind to it.
- Layoffs at Halo Studios start today
- Fired Bethesda devs are yelling into the void
- EA is getting ready for layoffs
- Bungie got gutted in June
- Shitty artsy studios at Xbox got kicked out
- Ubisoft killed a studio in Canada
....and it's only starting
SHOULD HAVE LEFT MY GAMES ALONE!
Why are people excited about MySpace coming back? We all left MySpace by choice because the technology became inconvenient and inefficient compared to everything that came after.
"Remember when" is the worst form of conversation and nostalgia is a losers favorite toy.
Great main event at #SummerSlam. Some people think the mask was a symbol of the shield, but it was definitely Mox. He fucked everything up jumping ship IMO. He needs to return since the old man is gone now.
Your hate for pro wrestling has zero reasoning.
Here's a list of people who can't enjoy wrestling. The worst one is thinking you "Cracked the code" when watching a match AKA "if that was real."
- People who treat every form of entertainment like a courtroom
They sit there going “objection, this is predetermined” the entire time, as if the point of a movie, play, or concert is to prove it’s real instead of to make you feel something.
- The “I only watch real sports” crowd
They’ll scream at a referee in the NFL for a bad call and then clutch their pearls that wrestling has a script. Same brain, different jersey.
- People whose identity is built on not being fooled
Their whole personality is “I see through the matrix.” Wrestling is just another thing they can smugly reject so they can feel smarter than the rest of us.
Chronic cynics who think emotional investment is weakness
- They can’t let themselves care about a character arc or a title reign because caring means the promotion “won.” They’d rather stay cold and unmoved than risk looking like a mark.
The ones who still think “fake” is a gotcha
- Thirty years after everyone openly talks about the business and they still drop “but it’s fake though” like it’s a nuclear take. It’s not a revelation. It’s a confession that they never understood the product.
- People who need the outcome to be uncertain to feel anything
If they already know who’s winning, the whole thing is dead to them. They can’t enjoy the journey, the selling, the near-falls, or the storytelling. Only the result matters, and the result is already written.
- Insecure dudes who think liking wrestling makes them less of a man
They’ll watch every other form of scripted physical performance (movies, fight scenes, even boxing when it’s clearly protected) but draw the line at wrestling because somewhere in their head it still feels like admitting they were “tricked” as a kid.
- Degenerate gamblers hate it because you can’t beat the house when the house already decided the finish.
- Insecure people hate it because admitting they like it feels like admitting they were dumb enough to believe it once.
Good. Me and this fooking fool Connor McGregor can both retire from having anything to do with UFC. "Any fool can get it" yeah, anyone but you. Thank God I didn't pay for this shit. What a waste of time.... #UFC
When's summerslam??
@SmoffyobWilt@kevinvdahlgren I know better than you, you're so disconnected you can't even fathom the fact that these people are choosing to live like this.
