When i was 13 and the ads for girls gone wild tapes came on Comedy Central there was nothing i wanted to see more, but by the time i was actually old enough to buy any of them there was no way i would buy that creepy shit. Who was actually buying these?

When Stephen Norrington was pitching his vision, getting himself and others hyped, i imagine he was going β€œand then the blood sprinklers come on!” not β€œand at this point we must dwell on the daywalker’s origins and set up two more films”

I’m sorry, cruise industry, but the term β€œcruising” has nothing to do with ships anymore. That ship has sailed.

I got pretty deep into this article before realizing they just meant β€œriding a cruise ship”

It’s so sick when the AI options for an office tool are β€œYes, i’d love to try Co-pilot” and β€œNo thank you, but make sure to bother me about it every day until I die.”

great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system

It's always a bit jarring when I'm birdwatching and I spot a bird with tiny binoculars staring right at me crossing "big nerd" off his list.

You never hear about anyone disliking the cut of another man’s jib, which leads me to believe jib standards have fallen

What if the movie was TRON: LEGASSE? It’d be like β€œbam! Knocked you off your light bike”

A fun thing about making fun of regular AI users is they very recently used to not be this way. You can be like β€œhey dummy, go back to the way you were 18 months ago.”

Con Air is a good concept for other types of criminals too. A flight full of Batman’s villains, a flight full of Universal Monsters, a flight full of my personal enemies,

For me, a key moment in turning on him was actually watching his standup. For a guy who’s been doing it for decades, it feels like more like a vanity project by a celebrity than anything. It’s full of brash confidence for a deficit of actual talent.

Absolutely. Ten years ago, Konami was abandoning MGS and Silent Hill, and now seems actively interested in reviving them. At the same time, Kojima has his new studio up and thriving. Seems like everything is just fine.

As someone who’s played through the original maybe 6x and adores it, it is fine to acknowledge that games are both software and art, and software has room to improve.

The answer is better preservation of the original game, not β€œnever touching the precious thing”

Reads like this: company takes employees for granted, company treats employees poorly, they leave, chaos ensues in the vacuum, company still takes role for granted,
