get some new material

Dear Woot,

I’m a big fan of you guys, but you’re kind of starting to piss me off. What the hell is up with this? Or this? Just in case you forgot: half of the population are women. Maybe you should consider that when writing your copy, and try not be giant assholes. Thanks.

No love,
Susi

EDIT: Now they’re just taunting me.

 

need a gaming news site

I need a recommendation for a good gaming news site. My requirements are simple:

1) Up to date news
2) No console bias or favoritism
3) Doesn’t include upskirt photos of PVC figurines or other such nonsense

I’ve tried several sites over the past few months and have had problems with all of them. Please, I need to get my gaming news without wanting to smash my monitor!

 

breaking up with PVP

That’s it, I’m done reading PVP. I’ve been getting more and more irritated with it lately, and this picture of the newest comic cover did it for me. Yes, I know that all of the characters in the comic are stereotypes, as it is in most comic strips. But it still squicks me out when women are used in a mainly decorative role. The artist made this big deal a few weeks ago that the main female character was going to be getting more backstory and character development, and what does he do? A storyline where it’s revealed that she went to juvenile hall in high school. That means we we get lots of oh so funny and original jokes involving girl fights, boobs, and lesbian prison.

I like to stick with stuff that’s actually funny.

THIS is what I have to deal with

An IT guy just emailed me a file that is 43MB. He didn’t even bother to zip it.

He’s probably getting paid at least twice as much me, too.
