chitoryu12 posted:The sheer amount of snacks on that wall would require him to just stick his mouth under the "faucet" and pour M&Ms directly into his stomach to eat it all before it goes bad or gets attacked by insects. Someone with a lot of money being wasteful, you say! Perish the thought.

That candy wall probably costs like $1,000/year to keep fresh and rotated. Those bins can be made to look like they hold more gummies than they really do.

Oh yea, I forgot about that display case trick. If you have a big clear cube thing that you want to appear full without actually being full, you can put a cube in it that's slightly smaller than the container and just fill it up around the sides and on top. I doubt he's actually done that though. Or, maybe the wall is full of that fake candy that's actually plastic, but I doubt that too. I think the real answer is the simplest one. He took a picture of the candy wall when he first got it and it looked great and now it's either dusty and empty or full of spoiled candy and mouse turds.

Unfortunate, because that's a good use for such a pretty mansion. He'll always have fans to come work for him on new projects-- look how bad Chris Roberts sucks, yet Bem Lesnick has loved his work forever and ended up working for him. I imagine ten years from now Notch will have people to help, just not people that paid attention to his previous shittiness. Scathach has a new favorite as of 01:31 on Mar 3, 2016 |

FAROOQ posted:If they wanted money from the sale, perhaps they should have tried owning part of what was being sold? I think the money wasn't the main issue most of the employees had. I know there was at least one person who didn't accept Microsoft's pretty generous offer for staying on and left the company. Most of them simply felt betrayed. In addition to the three owners not telling anyone about the planned buy out except Jeb(who they also pressured in to not saying anything to anyone else,) Notch himself just acted like he had washed his hands of everything and left in the middle of the day, walking past everyone, and didn't even say anything. Jeb absolutely reviled the position he was put in by his bosses for all the undue stress on him. The money just made Notch look like an even bigger rear end in a top hat though considering his total involvement with Minecraft had become barely worth mentioning at that point. Jeb absolutely should've gotten something besides just the three owners, in my opinion. He was incredibly critical to their success. The amount of work he put in to the game is astounding. This video is three years old and shows a good deal of the total involvement people at Mojang had at Minecraft up until 2013. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRjTyRly5WA Skaw has a new favorite as of 01:48 on Mar 3, 2016 |

Scathach posted:I assume, from his size, that he doesn't do drugs. Unfortunate, because that's a good use for such a pretty mansion. That's going to reduce his pool of potential candidates and make it far harder for him to put together a good team. Reputation means a ton and then there's that silly bell curve thing; if you reduce your potential pool of employees you end up with a lower likelihood of getting good people. A great many people would see Notch on a project and just go "lolnope" without some sort of ironclad contract that doesn't allow for Hollywood accounting. Aside from that the fact that he did that once makes him more likely to do it again. Being a good boss is a skill that, from the sounds of things, he just plain doesn't have.

Red is an acquaintance of mine who posts "woe is me, I'm single" nice guy stuff and rants about his ex all the time. He changed his profile picture today and this masterpiece ensued. He's been posting flirty stuff on my statuses lately, lucky me.

The candy room is staffed, maintained, and temperature controlled. The house also came with a roomful of exotic cars if the articles around the time of the sale are to be believed. For a time, parties at Notch's house were apparently the place to be for Hollywood celebs, judging by the sheer amount of celebrity Instagram selfies in that goddamn candy room. Unsurprisingly, Notch wasn't in any of them. E: forgot to mention the candy room came with the house, along with an absolutely massive amount of wine and spirits.

Lady Naga posted:For all of Notch's problems I wouldn't think a wall of snacks would be such a contentious issue. The dude likes eating snacks and he probably has someone to maintain the thing so who gives a poo poo? It's not really that big a deal, it's more emblematic than anything. Like a giant wall-mounted fedora, to complement his actual fedora. e: Nuebot posted:It's got to be weird when your house is more liked, popular and well known than you are. We could always ask Grover what that's like.

Doakes posted:Lots of these aren't even true right? I cant see anything about Sandler online, and Stallone was clearly taking the piss in this article: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jan/11/sylvester-stallone-i-love-donald-trump/ Sandler will vote for who ever is the republican nominee. He's a life long republican. I am guessing because he is rich and has been from a young age. The source sucks but I forget where you look up the registered voters of cali at. http://www.newsmax.com/TheWire/top-hollywood-republican-celebrities/2015/02/10/id/623957/

Blue is my cousin, I couldn't tell you who any of the other people are beyond some folks. Is it just me or do these "OMG OUR YOUTH IS CLUELESS!" videos always pop up every year there's a presidential election? EDIT: This was probably asked a while ago but is it just me or does Social Fixer no longer work with Firefox?

Well, here's the thing. As someone with a father who was really abusive and not much of a "dad", I 100% get what they're trying to say. Guys who are there for their family are super awesome. The wading through a swamp with a baby in one hand and a gun in the other as the idealistic father with no real context other than redneckery is definitely kind of weird though.

You've heard of duck calls, right? Same principal. You play with the baby and he makes cute noises which attract other babies.

Picnic Princess posted:The wading through a swamp with a baby in one hand and a gun in the other as the idealistic father with no real context other than redneckery is definitely kind of weird though. I see it all the time on Facebook, I grew up in a very rural area and lots of people have latched onto redneckery as their only real identity. It's a constant stream of poo poo like a picture of a super nice cabin with "share if you'd rather live here than in the city" or a bonfire with "share if you'd rather do this than go to a nightclub". Since rural communities have been slowly drying up and blowing away their whole lives I guess they feel like their identity is threatened. The weirdest for me are the posts about cowboys mixed in. I grew up in Michigan and our rednecks are way more like Canadian ones than Texans. The cliche is a guy in flannel, a tchook, jeans and drunkenly careening down deer trails on a snowmobile, none of which is all that cowboy-ish. I guess it's a bit like Canadian and Australian racists posting American right wing memes, domestic meme production isn't prolific enough so they need to get it elsewhere.
