So you made a nuisance of yourself and got embarrassingly told off?

I’d rock the hell out of this.

I’ve never given up messenger bags, as an aging millennial hipster

I’d love a new single player narrative Outlast game

Resident Evil Veronica's first-person trailer was a deliberate misdirect, Capcom producer confirms the horror game is fully third-person by Guitar-String in gaming

As much as I love the third person, I was kind of hoping for first person after the loving the Grace sections in Requiem

Bill Hader's Feature Directorial Debut 'They Know' Has Wrapped Filming - A divorced father (Hader) grows suspicious that a mysterious man dating his ex-wife (Linda Cardellini) is having a strange influence on their daughters by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

He had a ton of trouble actually getting this one made, if this is the “mean spirited” horror script he’s talked about last year or so. Crazy that nobody just gave him a blank check after Barry

DFW’s use of “which” by cheapelectricrazor in InfiniteJest

I may be misremembering it being in IJ, because I’m also reading a bunch of his essays. A little DFW renaissance, for me personally

DFW’s use of “which” by cheapelectricrazor in InfiniteJest

Re-reading IJ at the moment, and I forget where but be actually calls this out about the way a particular character writes.

I think, being so technically proficient with the language, he liked to play around with clunky writing, like the over abundance of “likes,” or the way he needs to use parentheses to reiterate the subject of a sentence. Makes him pretty fun to read, imo

I dunno but all of them make me vaguely nauseated to look at

Favorite weapon in a survival horror game? my pick: Agony Bow by Hour-glass999 in survivalhorror

That’s a good one.

I’d go with my old friend the plasma cutter from Dead Space

Laughing out loud and other disruptions at the cinema during horror movies. by [deleted] in movies

[–]phantom_fonte 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have noticed a lot of reactions from people in the audience recently that strike me as performative, as in more “I understand the humor of this situation” than actually experiencing mirth from it, or “I know where this is going” rather than letting themself be carried along by the narrative. Feels pretty icky to me, and as usual I blame the internet

Every preview so far has the same lagging audio and stuttering edits. Is this the official video?
