I knew another priest who loved making "wife bad" boomer jokes at funerals whenever a surviving spouse died. Lots of "Her husband has been enjoying paradise in heaven...and now his wife is there..." and "st. Peter gives a test to enter heaven, you need to spell 'love'. St. Peter wants a break and gives this task to a man who sees his wife coming to the pearly gates. He tells his wife that she must spell a word before entering heaven. His wife asks what the word is. The man says 'onamonapia'"

Those definitely got some uncomfortable laughs

I knew a priest who liked to say he only smoked after sex.

Right, but nobody tells anyone interested in physics to read Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. If you're interested in history, sure. If you're interested in physics, read a modern physics textbook.

Reading Marx is like reading Adam Smith. Both wrote about economic systems before economics was even a thing. All ideas start somewhere but our ideas, and our society, have advanced dramatically in the 140+ years they've been dead. They're more interesting for historical purposes than economic ones.

Lol @ the Gearbox CEO defending the DLC

My favorite artists, performers, and entertainers have all made things I didn’t like so much. It’s cool. When artists have a miss, that’s when they need fans the most to root them on so they are motivated to keep creating. I don’t know if I will ever make anything again that you like, but wouldn’t it be better for you to have that chance to decide than for artists to never create again after a marketplace miss?

This isn't his game. He bought a game other people created and then made a shitty DLC, probably in an effort to cash in on the name and success of the original. That's not what artists do, that's what out of touch CEOs do.

I haven't played the DLC but I have played with the Chef mod and from the reviews it seems like a random modder made a better Chef than Gearbox.

I'm probably going to play with Ukrainian voice overs and English subtitles. It just feels more authentic to me!
