Steakhouse Burrito

A limited-time menu item served at Taco Bell restaurants from 2016 to 2017. It consisted of marinated steak, fried potatoes, bacon bits, sour cream, and cheese sauce encased in a flour tortilla. It was served with a side of nacho chips and cheese dip.

In early 2024, public interest in the Steakhouse Burrito was renewed by popular Twitch streamer CaseOh, who frequently expresses his affinity for the menu item and his desire for its return.

As much as you plead and beg and ask people on Reddit, the Steakhouse Burrito isn't coming back anytime soon.

A Brazilian gamer and founder of the "Sweet Baby Inc. Detected" Steam group and DEIDetected.com website. Widely regarded as the most important figure in the 2024 revolt against the DEI-infested video game industry.

We wouldn't have taken back the gaming industry without Kabrutus.

Dustborn

A 2024 action-adventure video game that tasks players with smuggling a package across a dystopian United States. Prior to and following its release, the game became infamous for its blatant political messaging, glorification of bullying and cancel culture and, most notably, receiving government funding. As a result, the game sold incredibly poorly, which the developers blamed on "hate" and "abuse" from gamers. It is cited as a key example of the effects of DEI on video games and possibly a work of government propaganda.

Dustborn never had more than 76 concurrent players. This is what happens when you choose messaging over story and gameplay.

New Club Penguin

A fan-made revival of Club Penguin founded in 2020 by former staff members of the infamous Club Penguin Online. It became the most popular revival of the classic MMO following the 2022 closure of Club Penguin Rewritten. The game is known for its bugs and large amount of ads resulting in poor performance, and questionable additions of new content instead of fixing these issues.

Card-Jitsu Fire is broken and unplayable in New Club Penguin, but apparently the developers would rather shoehorn pride flags into a 20-year-old children's game than fix bugs.

Sheep Fricker

A Minecraft redstone circuit in which a simple redstone clock is used to pulsate a sticky piston. A lightning rod or end rod is affixed to the piston and a mob, usually a sheep, is collected in a boat and placed in front. As the sticky piston extends and retracts, the rod appears to anally penetrate the sheep, giving the circuit its name.

Also known as a sheep fucker, sheep machine, or sheep station.

Most people used redstone repeaters to power a sheep fricker, but I find that observers are easier to set up.

Club Penguin Online

A fan-made revival of Club Penguin that existed from 2017 to 2020. During the last few months of its life, the game became infamous for the predatory behavior of its founder, attacks on fellow Club Penguin revivals by its staff, and the presence of mature servers despite being a revival of a children's game. A combination of these factors led to the game receiving a DMCA takedown notice from the Walt Disney Company and the arrest of the founder in May 2020. Many of the game's former staff later founded New Club Penguin, an ongoing revival of the classic MMO.

I couldn't go one day on Club Penguin Online without seeing people hosting strip clubs in their igloos.

Firewalk Studios

An American video game developer founded in 2018 and acquired by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) in April 2023. It developed the now-defunct 2024 hero shooter game Concord, which is often cited as one of the biggest failures in video game history. Following this, the studio was shut down by SIE in late October 2024.

Sony and Firewalk Studios didn't consider what gamers wanted and now they've paid the price.
