yessir, just keep tipping us 30% and you're one of us ;)
NGL I think it’s hilarious how angry Europeans (and specifically Italians) get when Italian Americans call themselves Italian. A guy can be 100% ethnically Italian, have an Italian name, speak the language, uphold Italian cultural practices and they’ll argue with him if he calls himself Italian.

Farming Sim gets sponsored by companies and shit to put ads in their games. But since the game is for farmers, all of the ads target farmers. Advertising products that, realistically, only farmers would be interested in. Aka John Deere tractors and shit.
There’s a fucking farming sim esports league. Where do they play? Agriculture conventions. not gaming conventions. agriculture conventions.

Decided to start collecting out of context post titles from PDX games and
Wow. The patience, kindness and calm communication skills. Outstanding.

some of my current favorite responses to weird/confusing sentences:
“many such cases”
“we love/hate to see it”
“honestly, work”
“many are saying this”
“love them or hate them they’re spitting straight facts”
“you conjure a beautiful world”
