Azusa sounds like a Guilty Gear expansion sub-title.

It's a Japanese name too actually.

"hoodlum" is generally a white codeword for "black people"
INCOMING SALT CAM!
In this case, Azusa is short hand for Azucsagna, what the local Indian tribe, the Gabrieleños called the San Gabriel Valley.

Now I get why everybody was making K-On jokes
Markman always getting that work.
Yeah, at least a bowling alley would have been another revenue source and something that old white people actually understand.
(That actually would have been an interesting idea, but I don't think Watson has the capital for something like that.)
Competetive Scrabble is Some Shit. It's less of a game of vocabulary (although it matters -- I hope you have every two letter word memorized, along with words that use Q that don't start with it) and more of a competitive logic puzzle.
Pretty sure that's a K-on character.
On Topic - I'm feeling really bad about this.There's a locally owned game store in my area with a small arcade in the back. Wonder if the city bigwigs would feel more at ease about something like that.

Hey!!, I may be unsavory, smell, and urinate on wall, but....what was the 4th thing again?

Does Scrabble have X-Factor
Hitting a triple word score with your whole rack can be pretty damn close to popping Dark Vergil at times. And just like UMvC3, that can get ruined by good setups.
The realest Wednesday Night Fights you'll ever see. We were this close to seeing a sneak preview of Street Fighter 6, too.
What actually happened: Super Arcade had their permits denied by the city of Asuza's planning commission, and IEBattlegrounds had a livestream of the meeting going.

Hopefully whoever is running the Twitter account can show the Azusa council this
I'll go down tomorrow and organize a sit-in
Happens to be a Japanese name as well.
The intern or old lady running this account will show it to them and they'll reply:
"The internet? What the hell is that? I hear only dangerous hoodlums go on that."
I wouldn't want to make business with them period, misinformed troglodytes are what they are.

You missed quite the stream.
How did I know someone would do this
Getting a lot of angry tweets is not harassment.
No amount of reputation could have gotten past the implicit racism.
Those darn kids and their video games! They'll end up robbing in the future!

yup. :l
What's strange is that the shopping center in question has been basically deserted for like a decade. I used to shop there when they had like twenty mexican meat markets, used clothing stores and swap meets.
I might show up to voice my support, it's only 10 mins away.

At least there's that
It's a college town featuring an evangelical university with a council full of old people.
When they're worried about people pissing on the walls outside, I openly question their motivations here.

Quoting this to remember to vote for it on Sunday.
Yeah well that's the problem, arcades have a "reputation" of attracting a certain type of crowd that certain people don't want in their area. And by certain crowd I mean certain race if you didn't get the memo the first time.
The only arcades in my areas have been converted into LAN centers which doesn't make sense to me as it's essentially the same thing. Actually it does if you approach it from a race angle...
You know it's completely pointless and counterproductive.

Ya, it was pretty clear what 3 of those council members were referring to.
