I was just reading that silicon valley start up "Wag", which is an app for dog walking (e.g. a pet minding Uber), raised $300 million in investor capital then somehow everything went wrong.

Seriously, I'm going to move to San Francisco and launch "Toe" an app that tells you when to cut your toenails and it requires a subscription plus an exclusive referral so that only the elite are allowed in, and see how much venture capital I can raise.

Good luck with that. Are you trying to make fun of the rich, actually gain venture capital, or both?

I think he's not serious, despite saying "seriously".

At least, I've assumed so far that Reelya is male. His profile doesn't say. The other part I'm pretty certain of.

Ive always thought of reelya as a she.  I dont think its ever been relevant.

I went a couple blocks or so out of my way to what google maps told me was the nearest park, in the hopes of finding a pleasant spot to sit in the sun and eat the pie I had just purchased.

I finally get there, through a bunch of secluded residential streets and even a tiny lane way, only for it to be filled with small children running about, shouting and screaming and noisily kicking aerodynamic sports objects.
Argh. That kinda shit should be illegal to do in a park.

 
Ended up having to walk all the way back and sit on this bench outside the 'council chambers', perpendicular to the street, which was the best I could do.
At least it's not one of the few other benches around here, which are invariably right on the main road (or next to bus stops) and generally facingtowards the footpath for some reason.
Whoever planned this suburb kinda fucked up this aspect.
Or who knows, perhaps they did a great job and later generations of fuckwits removed all the well-situated seating.

of the entirety of Encyclopedia Britannica, that once was left too close to an internet router in some nerd’s cellar, and hasn’t been moved since.

That’s my working theory anyway.

That's mean, I'm nothing like Brittanica. More like Urban Dictionary that's been Google translated into Japanese then back into English.

Steam has yeeted off the last bits of content standards, and is now selling literal desktop strippers.

That's getting rid of (is that what "yeeting" is supposed to mean - I can't keep up with this newfangled moonspeak, now get me a lawn to chase kids off of) content standards, not Quality Control. It would only be getting rid of quality control if the desktop stripper is packaged with malware or doesn't load properly.

Okay, fixed. Also, "Yeet" is pretty versatile, but yeah, "getting rid off/throwing away" is the usual meaning.

I mean, are the graphics any good, or is this gonna be some uncanny valley shit horrifying enough to turn one off the female form forever?

[pisskop]

I feel like she is supposed to hearken to Jessica Rabbit.

I'm not gonna click on it, because I share my steam acc with my mom, and I don't want... "interesting conversations" to occur when the Steam recs get flooded with tit games. Still, I've took some screenshots from the game's sidebar.

Wow, that really is awful! I think you were right the first time, Steam's quality control must have gone out the window too.
Just kidding, Steam doesn't have quality control.


I feel bad for whatever budding incels actually pay for that. Couldn't they just download Second Life or some such nonsense?

[overseer05-15]

you wouldn't download a stripper
