    Alternately, they can hold elections and still make them corrupt by holding them at the most inconvenient times for everyone except the people they want. “Our election is a voice vote, the week before Thanksgiving, at 2PM in a conference room in town 50 miles away” sorta stuff.


  • His lawyers have run out pretty much every option to delay trials, although several judges have seemed pretty damn complicit as well. I get wanting to make sure the case is as airtight as possible, but…the people they’re worried about pissing off with a case that isn’t entirely formed, were just going to be pissed off anyway.

    Basically this. If they had slowed down releases, even added new songs as updates or micro DLC packs in between, I think they’d have had something that would’ve worked for years. It was incredibly popular because the variety of play was big and the controls for each position were pretty basic enough to the point that anyone could pick up any position and play.

    However, everyone had to have their own version inside of a year. DJ hero, American Idol games, every major band of the last 50 years got their own branded version of Rock Band, etc. It burnt the market out like the Great Awakening.

    Don’t forget the time he wanted to quit benzos to show how masculine he was. His doctors wanted to taper him down so his brain didn’t fry (benzo addiction alters brain chemistry and withdrawal can seriously screw you up or kill you if you stop), but trying to taper off over several years wasn’t manly and powerful. So he flew to Russia and got a few potentially sketchy doctors to put him in a medical coma for a month, and that’s part of why he’s so fucked up now.

    Oh, or the part where his daughter convinced him to only ever eat red meat, and literally nothing else.
