where is this from? surprisingly niggerish behavior if true

>>105659817 (OP)
and? people obsessed with animals are literally mentally ill

>throws away
as in gave to someone else to take care of? or did he just put the cat in a trash can or what the fuck does this mean here?

>>105659874
giving it to an animal shelter

>>105659866
it's not 'obsession' to expect if you get a pet and just dump it because it's not convenient for you anymore then you have a nigger brain

What does John think about drugs?

>>105659874
he took her to the pound because she pissed on the couch (because he wasn't even taking care of the litter tray most likely) and apparently even his team told him that was cold but he just didn't give a fuck

>>105659880
if you get a cat hoping for companionship but get a chore that ruins your apartment pissing all over the place and ruining your furniture it's only mentally ill animal lovers that expect you to hold onto it, if you care so much go to a shelter and pick up an animal without a human home to ruin

It's from Masters of Doom.
>Scott Miller wasn’t the only one to go before id began working on Doom. Mitzi would suffer a similar fate. Carmack’s cat had been a thorn in the side of the id employees, beginning with the days of her overflowing litter box back at the lake house. Since then she had grown more irascible, lashing out at passersby and relieving herself freely around his apartment. The final straw came when she peed all over a brand-new leather couch that Carmack had bought with the Wolfenstein cash. Carmack broke the news to the guys.

>“Mitzi was having a net negative impact on my life,” he said. “I took her to the animal shelter. Mmm.”

>“What?” Romero asked. The cat had become such a sidekick of Carmack’s that the guys had even listed her on the company directory as his significant other–and now she was just gone? “You know what this means?” Romero said.
“They’re going to put her to sleep! No one’s going to want to claim her.”

>Carmack shrugged it off and returned to work.
>The same rule applied to a cat, a computer program, or, for that matter, a person. When something becomes a problem, let it go or, if necessary, have it surgically removed.

I'm not sure what to make of it personally. I think the fact her litter box wasn't being cleaned actually indicates he probably was a neglectful owner and just didn't take care of the cat properly and then got rid of her.

>>105659897
Cats are terrible pets too. He probably wanted a dog but was surrounded by programmers who tend to be cat people and thought he would be one too.

>>105659897
If you want entertainment at no cost then don't get a pet, of course you should expect obligations to take care of it
your post is just straight up nigger logic

>>105659923
dogs are even more of a chore and potential hazard

>>105659929
it's a learning experience, i bet he didn't get another pet again

>>105659951
dogs are nice if you're not a fat slob who can't be bothered to take it for a walk.

>>105659922
It's bullshit like the rest of the book. You can see the cat in later photos and videos from the studio.

>>105659979
expect they can get old and sick or incontinent for any other reason, additionally you might be lucky with a nice dog but you can also get a nigger dog or "scared" dog that wants to murder every other dog he sees, you permanently have dog hair everywhere and dog smell which you simply stop noticing but other people won't, you can't go out for holidays without organizing a dog sitter, you can't even go out for a day you have to plan your entire life around an animal having to piss and shit at least 3 times a day

>>105659980
k

>>105659980
show us an image of mitzi then show us her with carmack in a pic after doom. i just did a quick googling, plenty of people called carmack out on it and it's never refuted.

>>105659980
surely romero and carmack have read masters of doom, they'd have called it out as BS. it was probably romero who shared it in the first place though, and there's some pettiness in it, regardless if it wasn't true carmack should have said so, seems like he didn't consider it an issue

>>105659922
>I'm not sure what to make of it personally. I think the fact her litter box wasn't being cleaned actually indicates he probably was a neglectful owner and just didn't take care of the cat properly and then got rid of her.
so in other words, he's just an asshole

>>105660015
This has been discussed a hundred times. I don't want to look for the video again, it's taken after Quake but before Q2. The cat is clearly seen walking about alive and well. I doubt any of them have read the book, why would they?

>>105660071
>Kushner conducted numerous interviews with Carmack, Romero, and other key figures from id Software over a six-year period.

>>105660071
>>105660098
so who do we believe, the claim of book based on hundreds of hours of interviews with romero and carmack (which is not refuted anywhere else), or the claim of a random 4chan anon, who says he saw mitzi in a video after the supposed incident, but "doesn't want to look for it"

>>105660042
basically, I remember another anon once posted something about working at fb a while ago and apparently he had a very bad reputation there as well, so this would check out

regardless of his personality problems, he's done a lot of good for humanity, and it's possible that the good he's done outweighs the bad

>>105660118
I don't care. Look for it yourself if it matters to you. There is not a huge number of videos taken inside id office in that period. It's kind of a washed out video with Cormack talking about something that you can probably recognize from a thumbnail alone.

>>105660169
>I don't care.
so then why exactly are you commenting?

>>105660173
Because it's one thing to type something into this box, another to go looking up videos from mid-90s to satisfy your lazy nigger ass.

>>105660169
>>105660219
how did you know it was mitzi not some other cat?

>>105659846
>>105659880
If you get a car and you want it to drive you from place to place but it turns out to be a piece of shit that never gets you to where you need to go and it just costs you tons of money to maintain, are you going to keep the hunk of junk and keep pouring money and time into it, or just get a decent car?
Same shit
>B-B-But the heckin kittyerino!!!
little pussy cares just as much as the car does about you getting rid of it

>>105659817 (OP)
gramps did the same thing
old male cat had a terribly annoying meowing
one day gramps was in a bad mood
kot comes in and does his wretched miaaaaw

gramps grabs the kot by the mane, throws it out of the open window
total fucking kino.
its a freestanding house, nothing happened to the kot in case youre wondering
