I've been kidnapping criminals in Red Dead then taking them to where the train tracks split n sticking them on one side. If the train hits them, they die. If it misses, I set them free. My Arthur Morgan is basically Jigsaw now...

Can't get my head around people getting shitty that kids are discovering music cause of a telly show. I got into Iron Maiden when I was 13 cause they're on the soundtrack for Carmageddon 2. It doesn't matter how you find something. Who has time to give a shit about this??
