  • I was a top 1000 ranked player in R6 Siege for a while. Which sounds unimpressive to people who dont know that at one point there were about 30 million registered players.

    Funny Story about that is that I decided to take a break because I was starting to take it too seriously. I was good but I wasnt going to go pro and I had a good job and a mortgage that I was putting at risk by staying up all night playing. So I actually really got into Angry Birds and Plants Vs Zombies for a while something easy enough to just put down and get some sleep… anyway I was at dinner with some of my wifes work friends a few weeks later and it came up that I was a gamer and one of her friends husbands asked me what I was playing and I said “Recently Angry Birds…” and before I could say anything else he turned into an absolute gatekeeping shitlord lecturing me about how that isnt real gaming and so on for about 5 minutes. Then he mentioned he played Siege… I couldnt help myself “Ive seen that, maybe I could add you on steam and try it out sometime” so a little creative account making later a few nights later I joined him in a few casual matches. I spent about 2 hours casually windmill dunking on him before I was like “Man this IS fun, but its getting late. I might head to bed, play a little AB before I crash out.”

    He was at the Xmas party this year and he is still butthurt.





  • A lot of his stuff isnt very funny, but its also not highly objectionable. At the end of the day if people see someone constantly posting stuff they dont like block user is right there. Its so much more effective than downvoting every post they make. It doesnt have to be with malicious intent like “Fuck this guy” Ive got tons of communities blocked simply because the content is not relevant to me. Its just clutter.

    Honestly I’m all for it.

    Not everything needs to be about the evils of capitalism. I posted in an ADHD community about how I think I’m fed up with managing my symptoms and I’m going to talk to a doctor and someone suggested that Capitalism is to blame for my symptoms.

    Im surprised they didnt try to tell me I’d also have less trouble focusing if I switched to Linux.

    Why does everyone seem to assume that Epstein offered every guest a sex trafficked child like offering visitors to your house a drink?

    Also why does everyone assume that the only reason he got away with it for so long is that “literally everyone was in on it” and not that he was careful about who and how people were brought in.

    Thats why the UNREDACTED files need to be released.


  • Ill die on this hill btw.

    When a KFC meal is perfect its one of the best fried chicken experiences on earth. When you get everything fresh, well seasoned, drink is ice cold… Bruh… Problem is it almost never is either the bun is stale, the chips were cold, the chicken was dry, the burger has just way too fucking much mayo… theres always fucking something.

    But that one perfect Zinger box you had 18 months ago will bring you back monthly to try again.
