If you have a definition for it, it's not hipster, it's faux-hipster. Too mainstream, you see.

I......... I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I applaud you, all the same.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Reading half way through this thread I was struck with a funny idea.
You know the little description of each race in DFs?
Dwarves: "Creatures fond of drink and industry"
that little thing?
I think a bay12ers description would be, "Creatures who fucking hate EA, and are a little insane."

Seriously, it's weird that nobody has been like, "I love EA/Zynga!"

Thank god, we finally have proof that DF weeds out the weak and stupid.

I have a confession to make.

I... I love EA and Z.... uhhh zircons. Yeah.

Seriously though, this turn of events are becoming interesting. I hope both of them get damaged enough so they can't be tyrants anymore.

Zynga is trying to prevent parachuting...
Ain't good news for em... but... EA ain't doing Zynga any favors suing em after their Insider Trading fiasco...

Actually don't mind em kicking down a sick mongrel... maybe it'll be a permanent injury...

Yeah, I don't see how that EA could take any real damage from this. Not that I care, because they're busy slipping daggers between Zynga's financial ribs.

Their 'Worst Company' title will be tarnished by stabbing another company no one likes much, though.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

That's hilariously ironic. "Hey employees, have some stock. It'll be worth tons. (Except when we sell ours without telling you.) Oh noes, our stock is tanking! Hey employees, want some free stock......?

Yeeea, this is a bad sign. Throwing stock around for free is just a way to prevent workers from going poof and trying to keep the company from imploding even faster. When a company as big as Zynga has to adopt that kind of strategy to keep itself afloat, its time to go.
