much is made of the malign influence of buffyspeak. but actually the scourge is xanderspeak. every marvel character is xander. also, xander and chandler are the same guy

there's a bullying strat i loathe where a couple of people make a strong assertion about somebody and then riff so rapidly on it without letting anyone get a word in that it quickly stops mattering that they made it up. is there a word for that

kind of a weird niche request but i want social sites to have options to like, quietly disallow someone from following you without blocking or necessarily muting them. for when i don't want to exile someone from my entire existence but i don't want them getting any closer

This guy in Half-Life 2 (known as "Manhack Matt") is the only person in the game capable of fighting with a metal pipe. This is because the pipe is actually a crowbar, which is hardcoded to use the pipe model when picked up by an npc_citizen with the name keyvalue "matt"
A dark-skinned man in a dirty blue jumpsuit swings a pipe at a blue-green hovering drone that is covered in blades (a "manhack"). They are in a dirty underground tunnel surrounded by graffiti, ramshackle wooden scaffolding, and oil drums.

People keep asking me this question, so I'll do a quote tweet to answer! Cameron and I would not have authorized this if it didn't benefit us. Yes, we would appreciate if you bought our game more than anything (you could buy it for $1,000 on itch if you wanted!), but Epic GOOD

I got my licence in December but they have not sent it to me, as they are experiencing delays, which is fine, because I have a bit of paper saying I can drive, but also not fine because I'm going to the UK and they may not accept my dubious Australian piece of paper
