Just a below average idiot that mostly comments for one of 3 reasons:

Looking to make someone laugh.

Self deprecation.

  • This is a special kind of scummy. Typically you get a so-called “AAA” studio laying off people even after a really successful release that made them a lot of money.

    In this case, it was successful, but their contract had a no royalties stipulation so they weren’t getting anything more based on the games success and yet apparently they pushed their employees really hard to go above the quality expectations, got what they wanted, and now fire them… This was about boosting the company name at the expense of the employees…

    Owners are always scum…













  • Your testimony raises serious questions about the project’s compliance with the National Capital Planning Act, which requires that projects like the Fed headquarters renovation be approved by the National Capital Planning Commission,” Vought wrote.

    “The plans for this project called for rooftop terrace gardens, VIP private dining rooms and elevators, water features, premium marble, and much more,” he wrote.

    But Powell, in his testimony, said, “There’s no VIP dining room. There’s no new marble. There are no special elevators. There are no new water features. There’s no beehives and there’s no roof terrace gardens,” Vought wrote.

    “Although minor deviations from approved plans may be inevitable, your testimony appears to reveal that the project is out of compliance with the approved plan with regard to major design elements,” Vought wrote.

    …ummmmmmmm, am I reading this correct?

    “You’re spending too much money! It says there are supposed to be all these crazy expensive things being built!”

    “There aren’t any of those cartoonishly expensive things being built”

    “Ah-HA! GOT YA! The plans say they NEED to have those cartoonishly expensive things! You’re out of line here!”

    …like wtf did I just read?
