McIntosh groused about the difficulty start screen in Wolfenstein: TNO which features a progessively tougher/angrier looking dude and difficulty levels with titles like "Don't Hurt Me" and "Death Incarnate". It's an obvious throwback to the earlier id games of the 1990's.
The comic mocks his complaints and suggests that people like him spend so much time complaining about a game's options screen that they never actually play the games.

I think I'd better not follow you though.
In case anyone thought I was being paranoid, this person followed me out of nowhere today.
I've only got 4 followers, but I only know one of them - my son.
I've already lost random followers...somehow. Mistaken clicks I suppose.
So, from my short-lived experience with Twitter, one random follower is nothing to get your undies in a bundle over. The surfboard rug is kind of cool.

If I took my job half as seriously as you take all this, I'd probably be CEO of America by now.

Should I be worried about my strange follower that recommends to me Fantasy Erotica?

I've got two strange fellows following me. Both are supposed to be Sci-fi writers, but I'm skeptical of their claims.
I never realized I was missing out on so much stuff before I Twittered!

I thought I was alone in my furry snuff pr0n interest. Alone again ... 
Huh, pr0n is asterisked, too.

How big brotherish. Is that even legal?

You're putting in an awful lot of effort for what appears to be zero real payoff. Wouldn't playing your games be a more enjoyable way to waste time for nothing?

Also, I have a lot of downtime where I can't really game, so that's why I have a ton of time to keep on keeping on.
If they don't put in the effort to at least appear as if they're doing some good for the gaming industry then Gamergate defaults to being nothing more than the gossip-laden harassment scandal that spawned it.
Still their whole approach is so blatantly hypocritical and exclusive one has to speculate; Are some fringe groups appealing to the gamer dedication to dupe them into doing their biding in the name of 'ethical journalism'. Anti-Semites, pedophiles and yes - documented misogynists, et. al. have all piggy-backed the gamergate cause to beat back woman and others that might have a disagreeable opinion...or simply an opinion.
Surely, publications can be called out for their ethical faux pas without this kind of war-of-the-sexes.
It seems most of their time is spent in the comments section dissing any and every news article or other opinion piece about gamergate, any of the people impacted by gamer-gate, or diversity in gaming.
Fortunately most people, gamers included aren't paying any attention to them.
Unfortunately, thanks to this scandal, Anita Sarkeesian has become the go-to feminist gaming expert. She actually has a platform now. She had an audience and she has financial support.

What do I have to do to get in on this sweet disappointment gravy train?
