Yo this shit is crazy

The Zenimax/Bethesda thing is a big deal, but they actually have to release games for it to matter. Can't rely on ESO forever.

I have a friend who works in marketing for Bethesda. Kinda wild she still has a job.

After their last E3 presentation I am surprised any of them still have jobs.
 
@AgonyandIrony is one goofy bastard.

Tell stories about coke and fat sluts and fist fights but then be deeply shamed by waving at someone he doesn't know.
I was unaware those were things I was supposed to feel ashamed about.

Shit, I came into work early today for free coke. Viciously hungover because of the Pats game and a friend from Oklahoma just moved here. I think I only had like twelve shots, made the mistake of drinking on an empty stomach.

So free drugs ftw. It's a shame I have too big of a mouth and an addictive personality. I could make SO much money selling drugs.

here's another one for you...

I'm pretty carefree, and DGAF about what others tend to think of me....

but for some reason, talking on the phone taking public transit...yea...that I'm "shy" of doing.

Didn't say you should be ashamed. The juxtaposition is just funny to me.

Last restaurant I worked at hired a very talented chef. He tried to roofie the girl I was dating at the time. Problem was, he drugged my drink, not hers. I'm a mountain man, so I just had a good time. Next morning was my day off, and I got a call that he was railing lines in the kitchen and got fired. Never saw him again. Mostly just pissed that the one day he just went off the rails to do rails off the cutting board was the day I wasn't there.
 
So gender and language. Phew...

Take the German word Lehrer. It means teacher. But there also is the word Lehrerin, which is... teachress? A female teacher.

So if you wanna address the whole group, you have the following options:

"Liebe Lehrer" - because there is a thing called 'generisches Maskulinum'. The male version also covers everything. If you hold a speech, this would likely be considered rude (and understandably so, because you are addressing individual persons). But e.g. for a newspaper article, it is quite convenient not to have to go for #2...

... which is "Liebe Lehrerinnen und Lehrer". You address both sexes. A bit complicated, but well established. However, the generic masculinum still persists, which is why ...

... someone came up with "Liebe LehrerInnen". Yes, they capitalize the I in the middle of the word. I don't think this is any 'officially' accepted way to write. But...

... in times of nonbinary etc. people, it gets worse still, now it would be "Liebe Lehrerx"
 
As angry as I should be this doesn't surprise me.

Anyone see Pelosi's interview this weekend where she couldn't seem to find her words? First time I have seen her like that.

Then there's Biden's pretty glaringly obvious decline. McConnell I would wager couldn't remember how to access shit on his computer without an aid's help with how slow he can seem.
The only obvious decline I see in Biden is in his eyesight. E.g. from what I saw of his appearance at the convention, the only issue he had was the teleprompter font seemed to be a bit too small. Just my 2 cents, though. I'm not a Biden watcher by any stretch so I might have missed the most serious stuff. And sorry, but I don't trust the videos posted by @Sketch to be legit so I don't watch them.

The Despacito thing to me is just... like yeah it's weird but it's weird in a really offputting way to me personally.

His face while doing it too is what strikes me as super odd


It's like that old guy at the retirement home thinking he's hip cause he found out what the chicken dance was.

Speaking of retirement homes, the first Joe Biden ad I saw was one where he was visiting a retirement home and he looked like he belonged. I immediately Googled his age because it seemed kind of ridiculous.

Haven’t seen that one since. Must also kind of be embarrassing for the retirement home people. They’re rotting away while this guy your age is running for president.
