Ok well when a Palestinian chick tweeted at him saying 'yo it's really hosed up you're deflecting people laughing at you by saying "YEA BUT GAZA WHAT ABOUT THAT", I have family there and you have done literally nothing for those people until you needed a distraction' he responded with a big whiny HOW DARE YOU YOU DON'T KNOW ME I'M A FAT PERSIAN YOUTUBE STAR SO I KNOW ABOUT GAZA and then all of a sudden, out of the blue, she started getting dudes tweeting at her telling her to get blown up when before that it wasn't a thing. So either she has real bad luck or yea Jon's manbaby fans got mad that the prime manbaby was insulted.

Haha ok gently caress people

I was using a PS3 controller to play smash and it's really weird. Figure I should learn how to use something besides the GC controller anyway since the DS version won't have that

:lol: Your response here is amazingly ironic. You know what JonTron was originally being attacked for?

https://twitter.com/JonTronShow/status/495783251961585668
""Playstation Now" is the most painfully retarded thing I've seen in a while. WTF even."

That tweet got him attacked by the social justice brigade for using the word retarded. He called an inanimate object retarded. Your criticism of him for this oppressive insensitivity is to call him, an actual person, "a total retard". Hilarious.

Then his Gaza defense:

http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1s2sdiu
"I don't usually respond to this kind of criticism, but this has gotten so out of hand and always happens when I make some sort of ‘controversial' statement on twitter. To you people who get offended at every turn: Why don't you try focusing your civil unrest at something that dearly needs it, like the fact that today the Israeli air force struck a school with a missile killing 10 people, most of which were children. I suppose you're all ok with that, as long as the missile didn't call the school 'retarded' first, right? My job as a comedian is to make people laugh and feel better about their lives. So no, in the midst of so many other pressing matters in the world, I will not apologize for calling a PS4 retarded. I encourage you to look at yourselves and think about what really matters."

He then even apologized for that: http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1s2sen3

I would like for you to cite where he told a Palestinian chick to get bombed, because I'm pretty sure that's a thing that never happened, but it sure does make it more convenient if you want to hate on JonTron king of the misogynists.

Haha his apology rules:

quote:

I mainly want to apologize to anyone who may have interpreted that I was using loss of life overseas to sidestep controversy, that was not my aim. I was merely trying to make a point, I guess it didn't land. The mere thought of doing that is appalling to me, and I am sorry if anyone took it that way.

"When I said I guess you love the IDF bombing schools I was trying to make a point, sorry you didn't understand that" ~ an apology.

Also like I said, she just randomly happened to get dudes saying 'lol go get bombed' right after Jon posted a big crybaby 'wow you hurt me' response to her when his fans were already in a foaming rage about the evil censors online or whatever.

Also the main fight came when he called a dude who said 'hey could you not say retarded so much' a retard, I really don't think anyone is legitimately angry he called playstation a retard.

His point still stands that getting all butthurt because someone uses the word "retard" is a dumb non-issue, especially when there are more important things you could be directing your anger and indignation towards.

Anita has not moved to an abandon coal mine out in the alps, out of fear for her life. Polygon upon interviewing her noticed that she seemed she was suffering PTSD. "These monsters against women in the tech industry must be stopped!" she said as she burrowed into the ground with her hedgehog like claws.

quote:

I have a friend who makes games. She’s funny and brilliant and brash, never hiding her thoughts and so quick-witted that keeping up feels like a sport. She’s also a brilliant designer who can’t get enough— she can take apart the popular text-adventure engine Twine and put it back together and make it do things that a text-adventure engine built on wiki markup has no business doing. She’s working in multiple engines and genres at once, and she made a game called Jeff Goldblum Staring Contest that involves staring at Jeff Goldblum— one of my favorite pastimes. But the point is— you meet enough developers and you see things. You see the devs that are here because they wanted to be when they were little kids, you see the devs who have broad ideas about how they want to very deliberately push the genre— and then you see the devs who are artists, for whom making games is their primary mode of expression. The kind of dev who’s more likely to make you a game for your birthday than bake you a cake.
