Weekend Discussion - February 4, 2023

The weekend is here and you know what that means! Let's jump into the Saturday edition of Weekend Discussion.

And now... Other Stuff From The Internet!!!

Loss of a fashion icon

The Spanish fashion designer Paco Rabanne died at 88. Rabanne costumed Jane Fonda in the 1968 sci-fi film “Barbarella,” eschewed needles and thread for pliers and made chain mail into a fabric. Salvador Dalí called him the second genius of Spain. https://t.co/6xZFaaiqaO pic.twitter.com/h20FbJhS9w

Paco Rabanne was one of the all-time greats and, yes, I wore his various colognes over the years. RIP.

Two straight nights with a high-profile brawl. It's starting to almost look like classic basketball again.

Senior Editor

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
