Article by Peggy McIntosh: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack of White PrivledgeNatural's Law: still see a few tagged members for this out in the wild. Here is where it comes from.This used to get posted in the older OTs and I think it deserves to be preserved. Captmcblack's thoughts on the imbalance between "blackness" and actually being black.Diet Racism: funny but also shows the "subtle" kind of 21st century racism that is prevalent today.

Also I think some of the discussion Opiate sparked up last thread should be linked to.

Good post breh.

I suggest we skip to the anime part of the cycle and talk about how trash Naruto Shippuden is.

*tosses refrigerator off a skyscraper, the double door joint*

Shippuuden is dope and MILF Hinata is awesome.

Now I'm with you if you talk about Bleach...

HI FAM, i missed you ( even if you didn't miss me. )
i've not been posting in here for the last few days because i've had crippling pain with my back, and i've had a hard time being able to concentrate on anything.

i did make a couple of posts in other threads. but this might be my favorite thread, so i like to take my time in here.
so i missed the last few pages of the last thread, and the first few of this one.

----------------------------------------------------------
much love to JC, Labor, J10, harSon and morris.
hopefully their bans aren't permas and they can come back soon.

----------------------------------------------------------
hope everyone with a significant other has a truly wonderful valentine's day weekend.

and if you're like me, forever alone. then do what i do, open the window and shout BAH! HUMBUG! at the top of your voice. :p
----------------------------------------------------------
ok. so. *takes in deep breath and nervously sighs* about the RPS Molyneux interview.
i thought it was a good inerview, and while i understand you can't and shouldn't conduct all interviews like that, i feel this was warranted because as john walker said on twitter "I know that some people aren't going to like the interview. But the rules change when it's the players' money being messed with."
as for the opening question, i feel, as a few other people pointed out in that thread, it was a very Jeremy paxman style question to ask, so i didn't have a problem with it.

i feel very passionately about the games media, more than i'll ever post about, because of fear of not being able to articulate my thoughts correctly, and making myself look foolish. ( as i fear i've just done with this post. )

hopefully you won't think less of me fam for what i said about that interview *sheepishly looks at mhw, dy, slay and others thought the interview wasn't good*

Fucking Sony.

Can't change my PSn region because someone there didn't think this was a thing people should be able to do in 2015.

Got a PS4 and can't redeem my Last of Us or PS Plus codes cos i made my PSn account back when i lived in the UK.

Steaming pile of bullshit.

On XBL, all i had to do was change my country in the Country field in my account and boom, new region applied.

On PSN, i have to make some stupid new account.

BULLSHIT.

this Drake album is just a shadow clone to eat the rest of his contract. He sounds bored in general when he raps but this album is pure anesthesia.

Well damn. Sounds like a better day than what mine will be like. That's the second time in a matter of months that Cadbury Cream Eggs took a knee. Well played.

And Shy, what happened to your back, if you don't mind me asking?

My sucka ass somehow ended up picking up two extra shifts this week. Finally off tomorrow.

Never let it be said I'm not willing to work.

haha. nice.
have a great weekend sub.
 

Jackben

bitch I'm taking calls.
Sub you da man.

Shy hope your back gets to feeling better. And don't ever be afraid to express yourself in here, no one will insult or think less of you for your opinion. Most of the stuff that gets thrown around is just for jokes between willing parties, so don't worry.

I feel you on the gamers money point but man, I both stopped believing and buying any Molyneux product after the whole fable thing. It all seems like super old beef to me, like I am genuinely surprised people are still so heated about it. Why hold the grudge? Most of his famous exaggerations (Black and White 2, fable) are from YEARS ago. The guy exaggerates and fails to deliver, does that make him a liar? I don't know but it doesn't sit right so many people basically wanted to see him torn down.

Yo, did BCT go through a black hole on pg3 before mods came in?

I actually enjoyed the Rookie game tonight.

I don't have a valentine/date/booty-call/whatever and I don't much feel like going out, so my V-Day is being spent with netflix and this godlike spaghetti dinner I plan to hook up.
