What's with the Kool & The Gang hate?

Makes me want to re-post that diatribe from a few months ago in this thread that goes something along the lines of "GROW THE FUCK UP". Fucking disgusting.

I don't mind the random hate by some on this forum when it comes to their opinion of people on the internet - regardless of how inane it is to hate someone you can turn off or mute - but when someone uses someone's personal tragedy as a form of humor, it really is taking things too far.

I have no idea what this refers to, I though he was on a extended honeymoon.

Are you being intentionally clueless or did you really not know his dad just passed away.
His father passes away sometime last week. That is probably why he will not be in the office until August.

I truly had no clue, I skimmed a post on the last page and he talked about his honeymoon, I saved this weeks bombcast for tomorrow I assume that where everyone else heard, I'll withdraw my snarkiness and I definitely didn't understand the full context when I made my post.

Glad he's getting the month to himself.
Me too. I'll miss Patrick but having that time will be good.

Will you never use snark again?

I'll read through a bigger portion of the thread before posting, and apologize for how careless my post was.
The people who called me out on it were right to do so.
Is coo', you were just uninformed. It would have been horrible if it was intentional, but I'm not going to fault someone for not following absolutely everything about an Internet personality. Pretty sure you would have only known if you read Twitter religiously, or back a few pages of this thread.

It does make your "What's with the Kool & The Gang hate?" post pretty funny now though!
Gotta admit...it is a good song lol.

Did none of you even click the Formspring link? He's out until August for his honeymoon.
His wedding is only in two weeks... He would have been in the office normaly until his wedding if his father hadn't passed away last week. Now he's simply gonna take the whole month which makes sens.

That sounds like helping the family with the loss, and then afterward Honeymoon.

I really hope he can enjoy the honeymoon.
Go have a vacation but maybe postpone the official one for six months to a year?
I know people who put off their official honeymoon until things calmed down. Sure they went away for a bit right after getting married, but they didn't declare their official honeymoon until they could only focus on each other.

What is the word on TNT tonight?
Spelunky and/or the new Frogger were being thrown around on quick looks and I love Mondays as TNT ideas this week.
Brad was pushing XBLA grab-bag and Jeff was pushing Frogger Hyper Arcade Edition. I'm hoping for Shootmania but I doubt anyone wants that.

XBLA grab bag sounds like a good idea.

Did they ever try and pull of a full game of MAG for TNT? Would that even be possible?
I know they won't do grab bags, but god damn I'd love another Nuts and Bolts TNT just so I could show off my sweet rides.

You're a mad man!
I hope they do a NeverDead TNT.

Make it happen, Brad! You know you want to!
Don't think that would happen unless Patrick was around. He was the one who expressed the most interest way back when.

jeffgerstmann: When in doubt, load car full of SNES games, drive them to work.
Oh my.
Oh my.
The only thing that could make this better is ending the stream with a few rounds on the Warlords machine. May need some setting up though, spotted it during ILM in a corner with a pile of stuff on top.
I'm fucking so pumped that they're settled into the new office enough now for Jeff to get rolling with ideas for video features. When he puts his mind to it he comes up with some pretty magical stuff. Can't wait to see what they do with this, even if it's just them sitting around and play random SNES games.

There has to be SNES in that office somewhere.
If not I will be bumbed out. Dont they still have some gizmondo's around? There is bound to be a SNES somewhere.

Yeah I would be surprised if the whole of the gamespot office is SNESless.

Another SNES night? Giantbomb is full of Nintendo fanboys, how about an ounce of genesis coverage?
In other news, Jeff sold me on Terria long ago and now that its a daily steam deal there is no turning back
