Speaking as someone who was also formerly an awkward girl as a teen, no one wanted to date me either. But they never think of that.

Also, way less of the cool kids were actually getting down and dirty with it than you thought.

Count me in on that sweet sweet censorship.

For real. By far the biggest overwatch streamer and star is Unit Lost, and his persona is unfailingly positive and excited. Maybe try a different tactic than “grumpy friend from my childhood who would never give up the controller” and go for something actually fun to watch.

They’re the MOST horrible when they choose sex themselves, though.

Oh yes. You’re not just owed women, you are owed exactly the kind of woman you want, usually 8-10 on attractiveness. Those other nerdy, average looking ladies who are also socially awkward are out of the question.

I can’t imagine why women wouldn’t want to get involved with that. Maybe something to do with the whole violent entitlement vibe.

Seriously. Even ten years ago Gamer Bros was a thing. Video games haven’t been need niche for years.

For real. Emergency response take note. That rage will turn into violence.

It’s impossible for women to be bullied and have turned to games for the same reason, and still be rejected anyway! Dontchaknow.

Honestly, this is why a healthy union system is important. But in the U.S. they’re being vilified and weakened rather than strengthened to a reasonable degree.

It’s possible, although a big departure from eSports to regular sports is that many of the high ranked players become famous and picked up by teams because of their Twitch/Youtube presence (in addition to their skill.) In order to get noticed, players often have online “personalities” for entertainment value. Compare…

It just seems like it’s a bad combination of video game culture, fragile male bravado, low behavioral standards of esports leagues, and YouTube “for the lulz” stardom of many pros that makes the whole thing look unprofessional and messy.

Honestly both Kephrii and Taimou seem like typical immature internet bros. I want to like esports but half the top players are so insufferable it’s unwatchable.

Yeah that pork belly is definitely way undercooked. But thick cuts of bacon/belly with the fat fully rendered is beautiful.

Really, his comments on The Apprentice, that’s it? Not the other fifteen women who came out and said Trump groped, cornered, kissed, and otherwise assaulted them way before #metoo?

Yep. The best you get is denial that it’s a big deal, (“it’s a compliment! I like when men grab my ass!”) but it still happened to them.

My beloved grandfather, a WWII and Korean War vet, made plenty of dirty and off color jokes in his time. He died with his mind slipping from cancer. He still never managed to grope anyone, senile, wheelchair bound, or not.

Oryx and Crake was too effed up for me. I had to put it down because the parts about the girlfriend’s past were too disturbing.

She looks awesome. Great job!
