    I didn’t have a PC, but I did have a PlayStation and a Blockbuster card. I rented Worms one weekend, and never returned it. Just told them it was lost, and paid the fine. What a fun genre.

    But you wouldn’t ignore the evidence completely, which is what happened to the NFL in this case. They decided “on average Black players have less dementia, as a race they have lower baseline cognitive capacity” which is at once racist, stup
