Literally thought Tosh was a fake name for one guy but there is a corporate exec with that name. Someone in charge of something is named Tosh.

I thought the same thing until recent family tree research reveals I have like a great-great-uncle named Tosh (or nicknamed). I know it's not, but I always want it to be short for Toshua. Also when I was growing up one of the kids I went to school with's dad was named Osh. I never learned if it was short for something. AFAIK that family was Italian.

From article: quote:(Oraxy, the Paris-based internet company that organised the stunt) describes itself on its website as “the world’s first private global marketplace reserved… for Ultra High Net Worth Individuals.” You can not convince me that these aren't actual supervillians. These sound like dudes I would be taking out in a Hitman game.

It's shorthand for United States of America everyone knows that. Even people from Brazil and Canada understand that and don't care that it happens. Though I propose we change it to Usa (oo-sah). I'm an Usan.

Does anyone know why the gently caress they thought this was a good idea? I could write this off as an incredibly poorly thought out marketing stunt if they were selling anything, but it doesn't seem to be that. It just looks like they were doing it for shits and giggles and somehow managed not to get shot doing it.

I remember a resort had an "interactive event" which involved "terrorists." So yeah, people are dumb as gently caress

I've been to Usa, Japan a lot and they have some small attractions that play on that USA U.S.A. difference. There's not much of a city there, but there are small American jokes. They put an American-ish flag on the train station platform sign. There's even a hollywood sign style USA on their mountain.  For a more relevant contribution, I read a pretty interesting article the other day about Facebook's attempted push into India, which culminated in a disaster of a PR push. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/may/12/facebook-free-basics-india-zuckerberg

I like that they felt the need to clarify, on their platform sign, that this was Usa City in Oita Prefecture, not suddenly the United States of America. Otherwise, I'd hate to be a dozing drunk missing my stop and waking up there. "Holy poo poo, how long have I been out?"

Applegate Farms, whose products I do buy sometimes, has been advertising on Pandora. Some lady reads the "scary" ingredients of some other brand, which has me rolling my eyes. But it doesn't stop there. Then she plays the ingredient list backwards and some demon voice announces what fools we are for using the other product what with all of it's bizarre ingredients. Beside the fact that this whole Food Babe chemical scare is usually nonsense, they're pretty much admitting it's nonsense because playing records and tapes backwards looking for demon messages is well associated with pearl-clutching mothers looking for evil where there is none. Anyway, I'm not sure how harmful cow growth hormones are to human children, nor do I really care, but this add from them was kinda funny. And even if you call bullshit on the premise, my guess is it probably does well with it's audience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQhHyHkCeBo

[video type="youtube"]NQhHyHkCeBo[ I love the opening shot with the children's drawing on the wall while asking about something more natural for their family Can someone tell me what actually is wrong with GMO/hormones/whatever? I can understand the appeal of the whole "natural and organic for my precious family" but are any of these scary pest resistant or modified food bad even in a way that would even do the smallest bit of harm? Pretty late edit: I read this article and everything became much clearer and I loving hate anti-GMO people about 1000% more now http://www.slate.com/articles/healt...and_errors.html stringball has a new favorite as of 12:32 on May 25, 2016 |

Grey Fox posted:Here thread, have a lame trailer for a kickstarter game experiencing development hell, countless delays, and ever-dwindling expectations: I don't know if they're cutscenes or just debug tools to reorient the camera, but when that game is at any angle other than far away as a 2D platformer, it looks like one of those Brazilian Pixar knockoffs. Anyway I dunno if it has come up in this thread before, and I don't know all of the details, but wasn't it Mighty No. 9's development team that created a Kickstarter for a second, garbage-looking game that then turned out to not actually need crowdfunding anyway because they had already gotten a studio to back them but were keeping that to be a surprise? I'm sad that Megaman Legends 3 is never coming out with Inafune gone from Capcom, but I'm more surprised now how he was able to lead a development team successfully ever, considering he has put himself into development hell on two different indie projects at the same time.
