EDIT: WAIT. Are you telling me the fucking Scooby Doo team can't take care of ghosts?!

Of course not! Scooby and pals never once 'busted' a ghost. Now, if that was a swirling vortex of old amusement park owners dressed as ghosts they'd be the exact right team for the job.

I think this is bringing up some deep thoughts on that franchise that I'm not sure I'm willing to come to terms with. So, were they essentially private investigators or were they ghost hunters? Either way, I think it would be implied that some of their cases were not shown in the cartoon. I assume they were ghost hunters. But, did they know that the ghosts were frauds? Was Scooby Doo just a bunch of atheist teens going around disproving theism? Holy shit, it was.

Well, they did actually end up busting actual ghosts and ghouls and zombies and suchlike eventually as time went on. So... dunno.

It was the only logical response to this whole thing.

What is that from?

Wow, I can't even remember anymore. I wanna say it was a clip for a Cards Against Humanity thing... Someone with a better memory will correct me. Here's a video of them filming it, though.

I seem to remember it being from the Drake Tracker Kickstarter thing?

What I'm also saying is, fuck title case.

It's quite useful for Classes, Interfaces, Files, and Namespaces, though :(

How do you feel about camelCasing? :p

I don't necessarily mind "ghost" as a verb, but why not use "abscond"?

Huh. I read it not as a verb, but as a plural noun. As in, developers who are ghosts. (Like, who can't be found). And then I figured it was a bit of a pun on a article dealing with a game having murder mysteries. Now I see it's also viewable as a verb.

Versatile headline, that. Good jobber, Austin.

people like Hamilton cause hes fast, he beat Alonso as a rookie when they were teammates and finished second in the standings, as a rookie. Also Hamilton wasn't always this dominant, he still has fans from when he was kinda the underdog for like 5 years after his first championship, and put in amazing performances in cars that weren't always great. I do understand that people new to F1 would be kinda sick of him, especially if they only ever saw him dominate.

Yeah, I'm new to the sport*, and I'm quite tired of Hamilton. I know the Vettel domination years weren't super fun for most people, but I suspect I'd've been tired of him too, had I been a fan during that time frame. I'm finding that I'm a big Ricciardo fan, and Verstappen is really fun to watch. Button seems like he'd be really fun in a good car (for some reason I can't remember how he did last season, or even who he was with. Probably because it was my first year, and I'm really bad with names, especially when learning now stuff like a whole new sport).

* (only even truly learned of it via Drew. Amusingly, I was [for a short period of time], helping as a learning engineer with the college version of F1 [Formula SAE?] at UT Arlington back when I was doing an Aerospace Engineering degree in 2009-2010. Somehow I did not really ever learn of F1 while doing so. I also had to stop being a part of it before the race season began in order to focus on school itself, so maybe that had something to do with it).
