I Love Mondays? Whatever happened to you?

Hello fellow GB friends and users, did we stop doing I love Mondays?

They're not doing one today because they are throwing Brad his farewell party.

I thought that would be the reason. It sounds like an exciting change for the whole giant bomb family, and where he is going sounds really interesting!

Whoa whoa whoa...... Brad is fucking leaving? Where the hell have I been.

Look at what you did, Sooty.

Please at least do a cursory check of threads before making one, yours is literally right next to an identical one on the forums.

Jeff seems to be overseas. Not sure about Ryan and Brad.

Also why is Brad leaving not here?

He confirmed it on twitter. Today was his last day, but he did record a final bombcast with the crew.

god the brad leaving meme is the worst meme ever produced by GB

What is happening? I thought Brad was along for the ride. Now he's leaving? I kid, I kid (See? Even I play off of it, god damnit) Guys, when is it time to put a moratorium on the ever-running devious gag of Brad leaving? People still fall for it.

No! Oh my God, no! No, not Brad! He was rock hard! A prince of a man! God, why?

Brad is leaving and all you can think of is your stupid video! Have some sympathy, man.

the mods ban people from the live chat (chatting in the chat, that is) for it last I checked.

They stopped because you need to take a break from monday.

you're starting to get too attached...

Um, its only been a week....  

Maybe they're busy preparing for PAX East?

I disagree, it's hilarious how many people it still gets.

I knew about it, and it even got me for a second.

This thread + the Brad meme = big ball of fail.

My day/week is ruined now. Fuck Mondays. And everything.

this is gold, gold Jerry, gold!

i havent noticed much new content up today....did jeff get fired? or giantbomb get bought by someone else? lol

Jeff got fired for giving the newest Ridge Racer a low score and refused to change it after the new ad agency folks just signed a huge deal to promote it on the site. In response he quit and Brad is going with him to IGN. Ryan and Vinny are staying, but since they are so short staffed they are just going to merge with gamespot and do everything on there going forward.

makes sense. thanks for clarifying.

I haven't actually seen someone fall for the 'brad's leaving' meme before and for that I thank you.

Maybe today sucked.

they joined a corporation and now they hate their job.

@matthias2437 He's been leaving for what seems like forever

Brad is a transient being.

Giant Bomb loves Mondays, but is not in love with Mondays. It's complicated, sometimes you just need a break.

This thread gave a me a great laugh. Thanks guys.

In all seriousness though. Their going to PAX wich is like far away. If im not too wrong i think Alex might still post news but there probebly wont be any videos before they are there and get too put up stuff.

Im hoping for a live stream of their panel but who knows. Probebly a noisy podcast later today in some hotel room.

They only go to PAX on Thursday. So until then, business as usual.
