Hey, you know that thing about youtube buying twitch?

Turns out we were all wrong!

I was half-expecting news about Twitch buying Google.

nenjin: Second Amendment

Oh I dunno, I'm pretty sure somewhere some flag-wavin' dipshit would argue not allowing their child to fire an SMG is a violation of their right to free speech. Since Americans want to talk with BULLETS as it is.

We're having a lovely discussion about it on the US politics thread. Until I bailed because I'm just tired. I've seen too many goddamned stories like this and heard the rhetoric a million times over and I'm just fucking sick of it. This is the problem with the Internet, IMHO -- it encourages bad, careless behavior because it's a series of bubble universes. Someone is being a dick? You can ban them out of existence or you can pick up and move to another bubble.

In the real world, you have to live with these people and their poor decisions and the consequences of their poor decisions. And suggesting that these are poor decisions that perhaps should not be made is "liberal, big-government, freedom-hating oppression". Lately I've wished I could just tell the rest of humanity to go fuck themselves and carve out a little one-acre plot for myself and my SO and erect an insta-death impervious wall around it. Leave us the fuck alone, you gits. Shoot and bomb and kill yourselves back to the Stone Age for all I care, but leave us the fuck out of it.

(Sorry this is more rage than WTF...)

Latest dispatch from Gaza: they're both winners?

Latest dispatch from Gaza: they're both winners?

The best way to end wars is to make sure both sides feel like they've won.

[Orange Wizard]

Latest dispatch from Gaza: they're both winners?

I, uh, what?

At least they've stopped shooting at each other on the grounds that they're shooting each other, or whatever the logic was.

[TamerVirus]

Are we really on such an age where even wars have the 'Everybody is a winner!' Mentality?

Except those who are dead, of course

[TD1]

I hate that mentality. I don't play a game for everyone to win. I play to see the losers' tears.

[smjjames]

Another threat of government shutdown could be on the horizon.

The wtf speaks for itself.

I think that's how we should achieve world peace. Everyone wins all the wars! Both sides! It's over now!

Oh hey I thought I was the only one.

[Helgoland]

Are you advocating nuclear holocaust?

[Darvi]

Not necessarily nuclear, no.

[penguinofhonor]

That would be everyone losing.

[Dutrius]

That would be everyone losing.

Damn, beat me to it.

[scrdest]

Are you advocating nuclear holocaust?

The only winning move is not to play. Since we still exist, the winning move had been made by all parties. Ergo, everyone's a winner already.

WTF du jour: I just discovered I spent like four fucking hours at least playing the first Sims. Shit's like heroin, or possibly any other depressant. After the first month in-game, I fell into some sort of meditative state, contemplating how my life must look from the outside.
