- Comment on Helldivers 2 has received 100,000 negative reviews since announcing players must link Steam to a PSN account 7 months ago:
The irony is that the game trained the playerbase to work well together to accomplish missions and now that solidarity is being turned against them.
- Comment on What do companies get out of rewards programs 7 months ago:
Protip: use the Jenny phone number for any loyalty programs you don’t want to sign up for. I use 512-867-5309 as the alt ID and it works every time.
- Comment on How does South Park get away with trashing identifiable people? Are they sued often? 8 months ago:
Yep that one is true as well. Paul is a vegetarian and didn’t want a song about non vegetarian food. He didn’t have a problem with parody in general, just that specific instance. Geez, I know way too much trivia about Weird Al :)
- Comment on How does South Park get away with trashing identifiable people? Are they sued often? 8 months ago:
That he does. The only snafu he had was with Coolio for Gangster’s Paradise. Apparently the label said yes but didn’t actually check with Coolio and he wasn’t happy about it. Weird Al apologized for the mixup and they made peace with it later. Weird Al said the only star that has consistently turned him down was Prince, who didn’t find the whole parody thing funny.

Nirvana famously said they knew they had made it when Weird Al did a parody of Smells Like Teen Spirit.

Narcissism
- Comment on [Discussion] What's your "this has bothered me for way too long" movie moment? 8 months ago:
Or even better come up with liquid filled inserts if they are worried about spills, so you get realistic sloshing movement. They are so concerned with realism in guns in movies that actors get shot by accident but when it comes to cups they’re like “shrug”.
- Comment on Steam now has over 100,000 games listed 8 months ago:

- Comment on Unity adding a fee for devs for each time a game is installed, after certain thresholds 1 year ago:
It used to be illegal. Part of anti-trust was forcing IP owners to license their technology to everyone at a reasonable price. That means that reddit’s API price gouging would also have been illegal and tesla and apple would have had to license their FSD and OS to other hardware manufacturers. This ability to control other companies through abusive pricing and licensing lock-in is classic monopoly violation that the govt has stopped policing.

Well find him a big tiddy necromancer and he can!
- Comment on CEOs of top 100 ‘low-wage’ US firms earn $601 for every $1 by worker, report finds 1 year ago:
They all just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and become CEOs. Doesn’t anyone want to work anymore? When I became a CEO I had to walk up hill both ways and put in 2,000 hours a week. Just kidding, I got a loan from daddy. /s

- Comment on Has the time since the invention of agriculture been long enough for any evolutionary changes to occur, and if so, what are some of those changes? 1 year ago:
During the bubonic plague there was a gene mutation that made people less likely to die from the plague, but unfortunately it causes more autoimmune problems:
