Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

because they have outlived their usefulness?
are those civilians liberals/hippies?
SO EXCITES!
Seeing the midnight show with Sabs tomorrow. Hopefully you get further with her than I do with Sabs.
Also, it's probably not too late for that Dementor joke.
That's the reason I got one again. Having to constantly charge my phone off my car sucked pretty bad
Because corporations will always look out for their workers? Man, you have smoked way to much of the bs crack I guess.
It's not a very serious job, which is exactly why mistreatment is a risk.
A friend of mine has a boss who constantly pulls illegal shit on her young and unknowledgeable employees
like, she fired one after she got back problems so severe she only almost made it to a doctor let alone work, and when she was going to come back she was just told she didn't need to come in tomorrow. She did that with all her shifts for a week then told her she was fired. That's like, three laws broken right there.
But when my friend, who knows about this stuff, calls in sick, it's perfectly ok.
Young people in these kinds of jobs are the ones most at risk for being fucked over at the workplace.
my lady's really lukewarm to the idea but that's just because the trailers haven't really grabbed her
she's willing to give it a chance because she's a fan of leo di caprio
Is it a date?
this was un-necessary, duer
That was awesome.

It'll be playing in IMAX at Scotiabank
goin' to the midnight showing
gonna be tiiiiight
Maybe it is just because you watch shit take place day to day here in the states since there isn't as many protections for workers as there in the rest of the first world. Part of that was we had a balancing act with unions that has really disappeared in the last 30 years.
Unions in the United States historically were one way corporations were kept in check from being dickwads to employees. And saying they have outlived their usefulness is part of the bs you hear from the anti-union groups in the US.
we get our bs crack for free because unions already got us those rights back when they provided some actual utility
i cry big tears
My friend is gonna call a meeting with everyone, bring up all grievances they have with the horrible job, then if it's not fixed, which it won't be as her boss is a right proper cunt, it'll be turned over to the union and the Labour Inspection Authority
knowing nothing about pot or scales has hampered my ability to relate to this joke
Right? Talk about a hook up
That has to be one of the best Louis CK stories ever, and I'm sad he didn't really use it much
An ounce is generally worth $100 or more
hrrrrrrrrrm
I desperately hope this becomes a proper IP sequel thingie.
cast off the yoke of capitalism!
RISE UP AND THROW SOME MOTHERFUCKERS OUT SOME WINDOWS!
MAN THE BARRICADES IT'S TIME FOR REVOLUTION!
Well young people are certainly pretty vulnerable to this kind of abuse. I certainly was taken advantage of when I was out working during high school, so on that basis, it probably isn't a bad idea. However these days it is not very hard to get good, very basic employment law advice (at least in English speaking countries that I have lived in) for free. So there is always that.
But I managed it... LIKE A BAWSS
it's all like "Twilight is awful"
and then people are like "it's good if it makes children read"
people don't seem to get that the argument against it isn't that it's poorly written
ahaha
application already sent because it's 1.8 hours worth of pay, and they don't just give advice they basically do everything for you should you need anything.
Also I might be entitled to higher pay.
I like reading as much as the next guy but man watching a good film or whatever is going to be way better than reading a shitty book
or if your employer tries to screw you over, that doesn't fall under safety, disability or benefits
and I'm not entirely convinced everything's on the level here so I'm being prepared
EDIT: I think my pay is already at what the unions have set, so...
well in fairness kids who like shitty books are probably going to like shitty films
See, for it to actually be a good thing you have to use it to trick them into reading books that aren't pieces of excrement. The people who say that aren't usually the people being active in this regard.

Yup good plan there actually. Better safe than sorry.
yeah i've always considered this a bullshit argument
"well, okay yeah it's totally retarded, and teaches awful viewpoints on life and relationships, but at least it's getting kids to read!"
it's also fucking them up in the head
that is not worth the price of encouraging literacy
Easy nutrition and great for the environment.
Because farming bugs would be a pain in the ass and icky. I guess I could feed them the leftover mushrooms though.
