Second: So apparently there's been a "Gamergate" going around. Nobody's mentioned what it is, simply saying that either we should be ashamed, Fox should be ashamed, or we should stop talking about it. Maybe it was that Zoey (Zoe, Zoe with an accent mark over the E? I can't be bothered to find the correct spelling) Quinn story, maybe it was something else. I don't particularly care.
That's not what we're here to discuss.
No, we're here to discuss people calling every scandal ____gate.
I was hoping gaming would be immune to this phenomena due to the lack of baby-boomer gamers. I was apparently mistaken.
There are so many better options:
Gamer-Lewinsky. (The Clinton/Monica Lewinsky sex-scandal)
Gamer-Chad. (The 2000 election hanging chad controversy scandal)
Gamer-WMD (The missing WMD Iraq war scandal)
Gamer-Ford (After Toronto's crack-smoking mayor Rob Ford.)
What should we call our scandals in the future?

Zoë... that's Alt+09963 (type the numbers on a keypad while holding down alt).
Might not make a difference to most people, but it's kind of a big deal to those of us who are named Zoë.
OT: How about Gamer-Butt. That's for all the instances of "Okay, we have 'proof' that [fill-in-name] supposedly wasn't lying, but they (this), and but they're (this too), and but they did (that), so I don't believe this 'proof' is real." Pretty much saying "but(tocks)" to any info that doesn't fit their pre-conceived notions despite mountain ranges of evidence to the contrary.
My keyboard's set to US International, so I can literally just type quote marks and e to get the ë in Zoë I could even go further and type Zöë with fair ease.
Unless it's about Britney Spears, cause that's her initials. Britney, if you're reading this, if you murder someone or something, don't get caught, and we can skip this issue.
OTOH, they did like hanging people in witch hunts, and this hasn't happened yet...though, Sarkeesian did get driven from her house due to death threats.

You know...i like to go outdoors sometimes. Just breath in the various flavours of existence. Let the sun shine through my closed eyes so everything becomes a warm red. Remember some lost love i should have tried so mch harder with. Forget how much i hate myself by only focusing on my basic senses being a conduit for the present world around me. Then all these subjects become nothing more than an overly mixed soup of endless personal agendas. I would love to love you to love, but that is also a personal agenda. So what am i even saying?
