  • Nah, I just type gg at the end. They’re just games, like disc golf, volleyball, or airsoft. I lose sometimes, actually I lose a fuck-ton, but that’s just statistics if the matchmaking isn’t actually the worst. It’s those wild unscripted moments. Coordinating with your buddies. Learning your opponents. Learning yourself.

    I get the appeal of single player games, but I’ll just share my opinion: to me the most stressful gaming moments are hard bosses in single-player campaigns. If I get my ass handed to me in a multiplayer match, nbd “gg This is Rocket League”. I’ll get them next time. In the single player you’re stuck though. I’ve gotten migraines because I couldn’t beat a boss and I was stressing over the wasted money I spent on the game that I might not ever finish. Beating a boss after <5 tries is satisfying. Beating it after 20+ feels like getting out of the hospital.


  • I’m gonna answer a slightly different question, What film am I surprised didn’t get a sequel sooner? The Incredibles. Sure, it was a self-contained story, but it could’ve gone anywhere after that. The last scene with the undertaker was just teasing another Incredibles adventure. But instead we just kept getting toy stories.

    By the time they did announce a sequel, it had been so long that I wasn’t confident that it could live up to the original - and I was pretty much right, it wasn’t a bad movie but I’ve never felt the desire to watch it again like I have the first a few dozen times. So yeah, that’s one movie where I’m like “why didn’t they ever make a sequ- … oh, that’s right they did”
