A guy who is a best friend to a girl with a boyfriend. Usually single, the guy uses this time to show what a good person he is in case the girl becomes single again.
"Spencer is a great vice boyfriend. When Mike isn't around to take me out, Spence is always free to keep me company until Mike gets free." said Jess.

The Vice-Chancellor argued to the government that students should be charged tuition fees in order to pay academic staff an appropriate salary, but then, when the fees arrived and the academic staff asked for a pay rise, he discovered that academic staff were actually very well paid indeed and in any case all the new money had already been spent, so academic staff could just go fuck themselves, while he awarded himself a 25% pay rise in recognition of his own outstanding talents.

Probably the best game in the whole Grand Theft Auto series. I was born in 1991 and got this game when I was 11, first day it was released!! This was the best GTA game in the series, in my opinion. It was more raw, "slapstick" and more original. A very fun game. GTA IV and GTA 5 were OK, but they totally pale in comparison to the PS2/Xbox Grand Theft Auto's. (just because they had more features and life-like graphics; doesn't make a game better. In my opinion!)
Interesting factoid: the song, "Running with the Night" by Lionel Richie on Flash FM, was later removed from later versions of the game. My copy of the game actually has it!! (I never knew this fact until recently.) Other songs that were later removed from the official game were: In a Big Country - Big Country (Flash FM), I Melt With You - Bad English (Wave 103), Save a Prayer - Duran Duran (Emotion 98.3) Burnin' For You - Blue Oyster Cult (VRock), Dead Man's Party - Oingo Boingo (Wave 103), Beat It - Michael Jackson (Flash FM) The Breaks - Kurtis Blow (Wildstyle) Looking for the Perfect Beat - Afrika Bambaataa (Wildstyle)
Some of these songs can actually still be heard in cutscenes during the game, though.

the GTA series hasn't ever been able to top a game as good since Vice City if you want my opinion. Also the best soundtrack in the Grand Theft Auto series, too.
Hint hint: Dan Houser and crew (Rockstar games) were basically just ripping off the movie Scarface a lil with Vice City, but it actually had an original storyline of it's own, and a perfect Miami 1980s theme. And you did NOT have to play as a stereotypical Cuban man. (more original plot and less stereotypical)
All the other action shooter games alt the time, made me want to put the controller down halfway into the game and bring it back to the rental store. (true crime, driver 3, scarface the game)

Vice City is the game that got Rockstar Games rich and famous. The most legendary and groundbreaking video game since The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time. San Andreas was a great game too and sold more, but it was just a follow-up from what Vice City had built.

The other side of the coin to virtue signalling; rather than angling for praise by performatively proclaiming their support for certain causes, vice signalling involves attempting to show off their good person credentials by performatively approving of harm or other bad things that have befallen others.
Like virtue signalling, vice signalling is a largely tribal act; a way for the speaker to associate themselves with certain other groups, causes or ideals. Also like virtue signalling, vice signalling is a means of doing this without actually showing any follow-through or doing anything tangible for the cause it apparently supports; much like adding a filter to your Facebook profile to support Group X doesn't actually accomplish anything, tweeting your support for violence against Group Y serves to gain edgy clout without actually taking any meaningful action. Finally and also like virtue signalling, it is not so much the morals behind it as the smug and performative nature of vice signalling that make it irritating: a reasonable person might for instance agree that at times, the use of force has been necessary to stop people from committing terrible acts, but when someone makes a great deal of effort to be seen revelling in physical harm done to someone else however necessary it may have been, it ceases to be about the morals and becomes instead an exercise of preachy autofellatio.

Steve never fails to post on Reddit about how great it is every time some celebrity he doesn't like dies. A classic case of vice signalling.
