Oh right, I forgot he was an ex-intern, yea then he and Nick go way back too, no wonder he's acting weird about it then.

Maybe the Polygon management made them all put away their phones for "face2face connections" and they're all in for a lovely lovely time when they get their phones back and the phones are all on fire.

That's funny, a goon group that I'm an admin for recently ousted a dude when one woman, who had been harassed, decided to look into it with all the other women in our group and lo and behold almost 100% of our female users, myself included, had endured some sort harassment from this dude from soliciting to nudes to constant messaging when asked to stop to even worse things. He was banned and things have been a lot better ever since, but even though most everyone severed ties immediately there were still a handful of men who said something along the lines of "That sucks but he's my friend" and still talk/game with him which is sad and unsurprising and sad that it's unsurprising. If you have the opportunity, Fix The Stair.

Yeah the hosed up thing with my situation (I mean the entire thing is hosed up) is the dude was like, 17 it turns out, so when people confronted him with evidence he was just like 'well you see legally I'm the real victim here'. loving infuriating, I hope in the years since that happened he's stopped being such a manipulative douche but who knows.

Al Borland Corp. posted:From all the tweets going around it seems like it was the worst kept secret with women, but most guys who knew him seem legitimately shocked. Yeah, like Austin was having friendly interactions with him on twitter too (barring that one "stop making horny your brand" incident in March) until recently, so I'm assuming he only found out last night too.

Green Bean posted:Do you have the episode number on hand? I'm working my way through the archives backwards, but this seems like something one that'd be appropriate to skip to. 151 (Orb is Horse), around 44 minutes in. Even worse than I remembered: the guy is 31, and trying to pick up college girls!
