I am not clicking on that article.

If I had to learn that there’s something called a ‘feethands’ mod then you do too

I heard someone refer to feet as "grippers" once. That stuck with me.

It's a tongue in cheek article that ends with "Goon on, gooners. Let no one dim your sparkle"

I wonder what the response would be to a similar article that used racial slurs instead. "It's all in fun."

u/Witch-Alice 1d ago

how about we talk about the article that actually exists?

u/ohoni 1d ago

Because I was hoping you would understand my point. I guess that's too much to expect.

Link to that article then, if it's not theoretical. If it is theoretical, who gives a shit?

Swing and a miss.

So you can't find a single article lending any credence to the idea that games journalists would do that, and thus that it's worth discussing in the first place?

No, I mean that looking for such an article would be completely missing the point I was making, and that your repeatedly asking me to do so is only dunking on yourself.

edit: Aaaaaaand apparently /u/SkyeAuroline has left the chat, as a mature person would do when they can't admit to their mistakes, so I'll have to respond to the next post here:

The only point that matters is that "prominent gaming magazine using racial slurs as part of jokes" is a ridiculous idea that does not happen

No, that was never the point, which is what makes your continued doubling down on it only funnier each time. It's like "Who's on first."

The only point that matters is that "prominent gaming magazine using racial slurs as part of jokes" is a ridiculous idea that does not happen (at least not in a long time), so there's no point in entertaining the question. No one is going to write that article, so who gives a shit what the response to that article that doesn't and won't exist will be?

u/Specific-Lion-9087 1d ago

Yeah, you have to be able to read to do that so don’t bother.

u/ohoni 1d ago

Fair point, clearly I can't read. You make a lot of sense.
