Wow you guys really get screwed over when it comes to holiday from work. We get days off for damn near every holiday, as well as twice as much annual leave.
It's not all bad. A lot of it is that our holidays tend to not be attached to religious holidays. It's things like MLK day, Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc.

Situations differ. My office has 10 holidays a year and unlimited vacation (within reasonable limits, obviously).

But, yeah, a lot of people do get screwed.

does this 404 panel ever get funny? im into the third segment and the host dude is not funny at all

Pat's vibe isnt my cup of tea, but man if you dont get a kick out of the actual videos themselves and Max endlessly losing it at that one video he brought I dont know what to say.

Man, these giant newegg ads that take up almost half the screen on this stream is really fucking bad and kinda bumming me out. Maybe I'll wait for the site archive of the GB panel and the RR to see if they can get rid of them.

The Rumble wasn't put on by GB so I don't think they recorded it, that was a Harmonix joint, pretty sure the Twitch archive is all you're getting.
 
been on the edge of subscribing but wanted to wait until a discount promo code dump happened, has anyone seen any promos at all this year?

I keep seeing comments like this- what is the video?

This may sound crazy but genuine fucking child abuse.

It's russian circus performers who are taking their babies and swinging them around in crazy ways to ,they believe, help the babies become limber for a circus performing life style.

There's a part where he's swinging a baby back and forth by the arm and you can see what almost looks like it's bone popping out of its socket.

There's a part where the man grabs the baby by the head/neck and swings it back and forth - just seconds earlier you could see the baby beginning to cry but during that the babies face was turned away from the camera.

He bends the baby into the shape of a C backwards, so like head nearly touching it's own butt, again, you can see the baby begin crying right before.

Not the slightest bit funny, it's just these men abusing these children simply because they believe they have a right to since they're theirs.

Hope they upload the GB Panel to the site soon. Not really keen on sitting at my PC for 2 and half hours, watching a Twitch stream. Would rather download it and watch it on my big TV.

the video is "funny" within the context of the panel, and the whole panel is worth watching once you get past the snooze-fest that is the first two segments

I absolutely disagree. Just because people are laughing doesn't mean that it's funny at all.

Sticking something like that in the middle of a comedic event doesn't suddenly make putting infants through that entertaining or funny.

Maybe it's the sort of thing you can see in a game or an animation and it's funny, but those are real babies that are being put through that dude.

obviously the babies being thrashed around isn't funny, but it was more the idea that pope somehow thought this would be acceptable to play at a public event that everyone was laughing at, or at least i was

that's why i put quotes around the word funny
 
Been watching some old upf while waiting for new content to be archived to the site. Watching Vinny take off the warthog only with Drews notes being dictacted to him by Ryan was fantastic.

The back catalog makes premium easiest worth it

y'all should be ashamed
No NYC Jeff interview thingy yet?

Also I keep forgetting to say this, but man did that quick look on half minute hero zap any enthusiasm I had for the game. They demolished the simple charm of the original. Ugh.

I also found funny how awkward everyone was during and after that. And in defense of Pope, the video is from a pre-internet era documentary, so is not like we are suddenly in a internet child abuse ring and promoting that stuff.

Also, fuck you Pope and fuck Russia circus artists
