Poor Miserable Gurgi posted:He made the one joke about trans people again today, and has been getting dunked on by all of Twitter since. He's mostly replying to anyone with a check mark to show how not owned he is. He actually searches his own name on Twitter to harass people. My non-binary spouse mentioned in a reply to someone that his latest stand-up had transphobic jokes and they couldn't finish it. They didn't even tag him in the reply. Then he retweeted the comment with "Dirty little bugger, wonder why you couldn't finish?" and then my spouse spent the next two days getting attacked on Twitter by his fans. gently caress him.

Here's an article on it. It took probably 24 hours to find the victim because he wouldn't cooperate with police. Had his parents not turned him in, he probably would have gotten away with it. https://www.morganton.com/news/local/man-charged-in-hit-and-run-that-left-woman-dead/article_eff54570-4622-11e6-9994-cb2756aea6f9.html Hopefully he's not in jail right now because the legal system is still giving him due process and not because he somehow avoided prison time.

MizPiz posted:Some low stakes IoSM I don't know who that is, but Metacritic says quote:On average, this publication grades 0.6 points lower than other critics. (0-100 point scale) so this dude seems unusually angry about this game when he usually gives similar scores to other people.

EL BROMANCE posted:so this dude seems unusually angry about this game when he usually gives similar scores to other people. The problem is that to actually hold that kind-of venom you have to simultaneously acknowledge that you're letting bias lead you, which I don't think you're allowed to do if you're a professional until at least a few years after the initial publication. And for the record holding bias is not an automatic disqualifier for the opinion. Dude probably has some real legit points about DS and Kojima that no one else is pointing out or even necessarily noticing. mind the walrus has a new favorite as of 18:23 on Nov 1, 2019 |

Not nearly as prominent or direct as the average Chud thinks. It's way cheaper/easier to make up fake reviewers and fake reviews from fake publications than it is to outright pay for good coverage. and Most professional critics/streamers live on an extremely precarious line of employment, and making GBS threads on their extended professional network--many of whom they interact with at conference events and via social media by simple virtue of sharing the same industry--is bad praxis, even when that network isn't giving them any actual benefits.

mind the walrus posted:Sometimes certain kinds of art just bugs you. I get really extra pissy about Taika Waititi, and while I stand by my opinion that he's terrible I fully admit I'm way, way harsher on him than he probably deserves. My dad would get crazy disgusted at the mere mention of Will Ferrell. My mom would probably kill Richard Dreyfuss if you gave her a handgun and legal immunity. It's the natural inverse implication of being able to irrationally love something, to have the capacity to be irrationally unfair. No I don't think I've ever had this kind of rage about movies or games or whatever. I don't care for Will Ferrell so I don't see his movies Have you considered that your entire family is weird?

I just go on a case-by-case basis. Many of Will Ferrel's movies are bad, but Stranger than Fiction is really good.

There has been a feature about from... I want to say an Amiga magazine? Which detailed how publishers try to coax a good review, and how for example, if the review starts with the writer showing off about their trip to the publisher's state (or country) and dinners it would imply a lot etc I can't for the life of me find it now however ![]()
