    $1,302 for a Steam game? Seems a bit pricey, even with a season pass.

    Also, good luck getting any money back from Valve. Their customer service team takes months to reply to account support tickets.

      It was multiple games, not a single game.

      I know right? In high school I had to deal with the stereotype of being a nerdy socially awkward gamer, and now we have to deal with Vapestick McFuckface over here making all of us look like ignorant entitled jerks. I don’t mind owning up to being nerdy and socially awkward - it’s part of my charm - but fucked if I’m going to let people associate me with GamerGate.

    The best part of having kids is that you get to blame them for stuff like a new ding on the car or mishandling campaign funds.

      Well, he’s a terrible father no matter how you slice it- his kid is out of control, and he’s willing to throw him under the bus. What's going to happen next? The wife with the mea culpa?

    I think that this story should be filed under "Daddy lost his cushy six-figure salary job because he was too stupid to buy a copy of Star Wars: Battlefield with his own goddamn credit card."

    I live in San Diego and there’s a lot of things to love about it, but our politics ain’t one of them. So fucking embarrassing.

      You guys don’t get nearly enough attention for your bizarre and horrible local politics.

      I am sort of torn. I do think that our shitty politics should get more attention. But oh God it’s so mortifyingly embarrassing. Oh fuck it, I’ll just move back to LA.

    I hope that each time he plays these games, he sits in front of his computer with a big bowl of popcorn lung.

      I get the sentiment (and I’m not a vaper) but there’s not really a concern with the diacetyl in vaping liquid flavoring. Yes, diacetyl is associated with popcorn lung, but the amount required is greater than that encountered by vapers. It is probably worth being aware of, but I don’t believe it to be the scare that it was made out to be initially. Hell, a regular cigarette contains more diacetyl than a session on a vape. Just a little FYI. :)
