Mandatory Corporate “Diversity” Training

Here’s my question: if “diversity” training is mandatory, then doesn’t that put us in a paradoxical situation? If we really, truly, and completely are comitted to being “diverse”, then shouldn’t some people be excluded from the training in order to…

Jeepers!

Man, I don’t even know where to start. What’s a game-playing person supposed to do at this time of year? I mean, there’s Jak 3, Rachet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal, Metal Gear Solid 3, Metroid Prime 2, Dragon Ball…
