According to my social media today, all that really mattered was the rain and load shedding. And the usual dose of drama and controversy surrounding games journalism. I guess I can go back to sleep now.

Here’s the news we didn’t post today because we were too busy constructing a discourse analysis on PewDiePie’s endorsement of Dying Light.

Damn load shedding. If it worked the way it was supposed to I’d be going home early again today instead of still sitting here. :/

You might be on to something. If you look closely, you’ll notice they’re missing their zero keys.

Perfect! How thoughtful of her to help avoid his confusion!

If I had a calculator like that I would have failed maths with a lot less.

i did not see a post how to avoid work
Spathi
January 28, 2015 at 16:20
Mmmm, you are correct! But avoiding work is easy though. Here, let me assist!

Was PewDiePie paid to play it?
Hammersteyn
January 28, 2015 at 16:22
Not sure. But I’m not comfortable with him endorsing anything.
Quo Vadis?
January 28, 2015 at 16:24
Its because he’s Swedish, isn’t it? XD
Hammersteyn
January 28, 2015 at 16:27
He’s such a meatball
Ghost In The Rift
January 28, 2015 at 16:31
Yeah he is a real Kottbullar:-P
Ghost In The Rift
January 28, 2015 at 16:25
Yeah maybe somebody can explain to me why he is so famous, i know what he does, but i don’t find him funny,neither is he a good reviewer as he doesn’t go in-depth into games,just yelling and noises and stuff,or am i missing something?
Hammersteyn
January 28, 2015 at 16:26
he plays games on Youtube and yells a lot. Apparently that’s what counts as entertainment these days.
Ghost In The Rift
January 28, 2015 at 16:28
I know,saw his videos and stuff,but still don’t get why he is the most famous.
So basically people just go and watch him rant and now he is famous?
Hammersteyn
January 28, 2015 at 16:35
Yup. Same way Malema is famous. Boggles the mind
Spathi
January 28, 2015 at 16:37
The answer is easy. Pewdiepie and Malema are both famous because they are really entertaining to watch, in the exact same way it is entertaining to watch monkeys throw poo at each other. Sure, it’s only funny for 3 seconds max, but what an awesome 3 seconds they are!
Brady miaau
January 28, 2015 at 16:47
Um. One has to ask. But do I dare?
Is that what she said?

The more that time passes, the more I feel the movie “Idiocracy” was a premonition, not a fiction.
Spathi
January 28, 2015 at 16:33
GO AWAY, ‘BATIN!!

Idiocracy was a huge steaming pile of shit.
Right up until this gem of a quote:
“Rita: You think Einstein walked around thinkin’ everyone else was a bunch of dumb shits?
Joe: Yeah, I hadn’t thought of that.
Rita: You think that might be why he built that bomb?”.
Those three lines completely redeemed that movie, & I laughed till I cried.
Spathi
January 28, 2015 at 16:41
Idiocracy is a lot like Little Britain for me. It wasn’t funny when I watched it, but afterwards I’m able to draw comparisons to real life situations, which made it funny for me.

I’ve heard talk that yes, he was paid to play

Evil corporations in games-Why no Cerberus on that list?!?!?:
Brady miaau
January 28, 2015 at 16:15
Are they evil or misguided?
Ghost In The Rift
January 28, 2015 at 16:20
Well they were rasict and sought to alien technology to Win a War(hypocrites), plus if you are shooting at me, i will destroy your evil punk ass:-P
Brady miaau
January 28, 2015 at 16:46
By that logic, they must be evil. Shoot at me indeed. Pagh
Spathi
January 28, 2015 at 16:18
Cause they aren’t evil, they are RIGHT!
Brady miaau
January 28, 2015 at 16:18
May be going a bit far there, but I will defend your right to say that.
