  Why do we need celebrity owned cell carriers? This article makes it sound like a bad thing Ryan Reynolds’s exited Mint, but at least the stars of arrested development still have a cell provider.

  I mean WTF, I like that there is competition but what the fuck is wrong with us that we prefer celebrity endorsement to actual features, value, longevity, etc.

  I know it’s a bigger question than what I’m asking but this is all part of the rot that our economy is experiencing. All vibes, all promises, all scams, this country runs on nothing but grift.

  I really enjoyed the first game, not AAA new game price enjoyment though. I mean, I got as much fun out of it while playing as I have anything else, it just wasn’t as rich and deep as a fallout game. I give it a pass since it’s establishing a new universe but as much as I liked it, it’s most certainly a blue light special fallout clone.

  So, asking inflated AAA prices seems, somewhat short sighted. I’d absolutely pay what I did for the first game, 80 bucks is a hard no for me though. I might buy it when it’s cheaper, but by then I’ll likely have seen enough clips, read enough reviews and gotten busy enough to just forget about it.

  Bummer.

  That looks like my play through of a fallout game. For some reason it amuses me to no end to make a random, huge pile of found alcohol, in game.

  I’m humbled by this man doing it in real life.

  There are so many flags right now it’s just a sea of red undulations. Done by design, so that we don’t notice the death of democracy.

  First, I love you for this joke. Second, I don’t want to risk pissing off Ron Swanson.

  I know right. And the motherfucking cultists in my own family are telling me it’s my fault for trusting the stock market. But these same fucks have told me that’s my only option for retirement because Soc. Sec. Is a “Ponzi scheme”.

  We’re setup to fail, we’re only here to produce value that can be stolen.
