That said, rebuilding a studio can also be greatly rewarding for streamlining process/getting rid of old patchworks.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I took a women's lit class in college and it was a depressing amount of Austen
I didn't.
And I still learned more about Austen than anybody ever should.
We saw Pride and Prejudice the movie. In school. Twice. And then talked about it for four weeks. And had to write essays about it. And were questioned about it.
The only thing I remember about this movie is women screaming "OOH MR DARCY!!"

I feel like Jane Austen would have been a fanfiction author had she been alive today.

This is probably a dumb question but is AMyggen on the site our Myggen here?
Also I just realized I have no idea who Jane Austen is despite hearing the name repeated constantly.

totally. I'm still a little irritated we spent so much time on her stuff instead of on more interesting writers, but I guess that's what gets people to sign up for the class in the first place...

Myggen = AMyggen = Mygg11 = Myggen Myggen
His real name is Alfred A. Myggen. That's what I like to think anyway.
Yo I had to read The Fountainhead in high school which is basically Ayn Rand's Gary Stu sex fantasy so I can't complain too much about Jane Austen.
This is all correct.

On each website, there is a Myggen and a lighthouse.

fuuuuuuuuck
dude I'm so sorry
I had to read more Fitzgerald than I wanted, but Rand is some next-level bullshit mandatory reading
e: The African-American lit class I took more than made up for the disappointing women's lit course though. I can't remember everything we covered, but my prof basically hit it out of the park with her selections
Is someone working on upper class Jane Austen Alex fanart?
So probably more successful than 'real' authors anyways

I thought Rand was the stuff the true edgemasters read in high school.
I too was led to believe this, so I read Atlas Shrugged in high school.
Atlas Shrugged is the worst book I've ever read.

Perhaps happily I have never read Rand's books, especially after hearing her particular personal views on varying subjects.
Nah, that's too on the nose.

My English teacher that year was a huge Rand-head despite being an outspoken liberal feminist, a juxtaposition that I still struggle to wrap my head around. So in the time it took us to read like three works of actual literary merit we got to read that 800-page doorstop.
The essay I wrote in which I pretended to appreciate the novel went on to win me a couple thousand dollars and a lifetime of emails from an Objectivist advocacy group but that's another story.

God Hand, getting fucked over by media coverage since 2006.
Shitty UPF made even worse after finding out where all the extra time spent on that fucking browser game came from.

I took a Tolkien course that was all about reading the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, my college experience was superior.
I don't even like the books that much as an adult

That's as much on Jason as on Brad.

It's on Jason, Rorie & Drew. Either one should've said it was time to move on ages before they did.
Jeff wouldn't have let that shit go on that long.

It did seem like Jason was trying to get things moving without just cutting Brad off.
I guess but there were a number of times where Brad goes "im going to stop playing" but then keeps going

Quick question, how far does the Witcher 3 QL go? I haven't had much time to do any Witchering, but is it just basically sidequests during the gryphon parts?
The first half picks up after the GBeast playdate video
From the video notes
The first half is on the PC and is very early on. It is mostly side quests and poor combat. The second half is on the Xbox One, is about a dozen hours in, and definitely has some narrative spoilers in it.

They touch main story stuff from about 10 hours in when they jump to Alex's save so you can stop watching at that point if your avoiding that stuff.

No.
But I'm puzzled why people don't see the obvious comparison between Rick Dyer and Rich Gallup.
Seems like they got the ratio just about right to me.

I notice that Drew tweeted out Eurovision stream links a couple of times, it's because they're doing a podcast right?
Sounds like hassle but there are worse ways to earn a living.
I doubt it, but would not be surprised if it comes up on the next Alt F1.
I would have liked a "Dan watches eurovision" live twitter trolling, but sadly he fled the country.

Some guy who was apparently a big deal for hanging around a corporate parking lot.
Speaking of the deserter I find it interesting that since he has left GB his wife has appeared in some of his videos and is currently playing through Spelunky with Scoops advising her. I wonder if the reason she never appeared when he was with GB was because of the harassment he received back then, which he has said has died down since leaving.

Coop is his nickname right?
You mean Crockett? He can't leave without his buddy Tubbs!

Listening through every Bombcast in order, today I got to the first episode with Patrick after being hired. The first two pages of comments are people complaining that he MIGHT talk too much and ruin the show. Skipped ahead a few pages where people have finished listening, it's people complaining that he didn't talk enough. It's really upsetting.
