Its the best skill in SRK. See, when 09 hit, kids didn’t know they had to grind that one particular skill, but we helped you. Every time we say some terrible shit to you, it isn’t an insult, we are just making sure you put into work those emotional footsies.

Think of SRK as the training mode for life: after you’re done here, there ain’t shit nobody in the outside world can say to shook you anymore.

This is actually kind of true. No one has insulted me in a way that actually hurt me since SRK heads came at me with attacks to my soul

I also have nothing to do with this. “Best Of” appears random to me. Valaris is generally in charge of the Wide-ranging and Generally Free Discussion going on in GD, FWIK, so thank him for being a benevolent ruler.

I’ve happily avoided this whole fiasco after the first several days: way too much dumb going on. Anything that begins with “an ex-boyfriend exposes an ex-girlfriend for having sex…” starts off with a facepalm at best. And then the word Feminism enters the discussion and then people on both sides go batshit crazy as always.

1/10 would heartily avoid again

You missed a great discussion about burgers though. That thing was 10/10 would derail again.

It should probably be said to that this stopped being about Zoe’s sex life incredibly fast. It went from “lol she fucked 5 guys” to “wait a minute, she fucked people who wrote about her games?!” in like 2 days. If it weren’t for all the Social Justice Warriors, pseudo-feminists and their allied douchebags, we would’ve been having a discussion on how to make things better by now. Instead people are still fistfighting all the while more inappropriate behavior gets discovered.

This is one of those that went from “you are wrong” to “you are really wrong” and is ending with “you are so incredibly wrong holy shit what have you been doing?”

That has also been hilarious to me in that outsiders think this is like two opposing factions fighting over the term “gamer” or some hoe who doesn’t matter…

No. This is about rabid, illogical, emotional crazies trying to hijack a hobbyist culture and sensible people saying, "No, you cannot do that."
