No, I found that disturbing too. What rating do you give something that's not fit for consumption at any age? NSFL?

Oh, I didn't know that. Thanks for clarifying.

Employers pay their workers the bare minimum legal wage, yet are shocked when the work is the bare minimum you would need to do not to get fired. Weird.

Graphics used to be the hallmark of a great game. Back in the early days, if your game didn't come with improved graphics, it was trash (like, '90s era games I'm talking about). These days, good graphics can be achieved pretty easily, so it's not nearly as important as it used to be when trying to stand out from the crowd. If I had to pick the tipping point for this trend, I would have to say Minecraft was the game that proved definitively that graphics < gameplay.

Games aren't objectively better or worse than they used to be. AAA devs can release unfinished trash and patch it later, which I think is super annoying, but we enable this behavior when we pre-order games simply because it's the next iteration of our favorite series instead of just waiting to hear the impressions of other gamers.

Also, as an adult I lack the time and patience to play the same kinds of games I used to play, so I've had to adjust my play style to suit my schedule better. That means I enjoy casual singleplayer games more than what I used to play growing up. It also means you have to avoid the temptation to buy games you like, but you know damn well you won't ever actually play.

If you've ever seen comments on gay porn videos, this isn't too far off. It kills me all the "repent sinner" comments. Hey, buddy, we all know you're here for the throbbing cocks. It's a safe space.

How is it that billionaires have such shitty haircuts? You could literally hire someone to live in your closet and give you a fresh trim every morning, yet you look you went to Great Clips and the trainee guy fresh out of cosmetology school fucked up your head with a 5 guard.

This is an excellent way to get everyone looking at your comment/post history. You played yourself.

Well, I laughed, so shitpost. But it was a close call.
