The only joke that could be made is kids are playing games indoors when they live in a state with generally good outdoor spaces for fun, with generally good weather.

It was bullshit. Unless you like tiger strikes, nothing happened. Next.

This episode can be described as blah blah blah blah (for 70 minutes) TIGER!

The Walking Meh

not trying to look down on anyone. and you took us in this sports direction, i don’t know, i misunderstood you a bit. the average twitch stream isn’t competition either though, in this guys case there was a record attempt so i can understand the appeal in that sense. still from what i have seen, that is a niche scene…

i thought you meant watching sports since were talking about watching twitch.. im not gonna get into the whole e-sports versus sports thing with you. we’ve been there and done that. fundamental disagreement.

none of those things are interactive like video games.

yep whenever i talk about this i say watching twitch streams gives me wicked case of ‘pass the controller bro’ — clearly this twitch phenomenon is popular and well liked, but i think it is something that could have come out of this web 2.0 crap.

you don’t have to take my opinion personally. yes i am the older demographic.

Counter-counterpoint: it wasn’t

Yeah, before streaming when you wound up watching a friend play something, you’d be itching for your turn. Now people are going out of their way to just watch someone else play videogames, and apparently even volunteering money for the privilege. I’m not sure I’ll ever get my head around it entirely (although I’ll…

It’s also strange knowing the games that “made it”.

I think your post just captured the whole ‘i don’t get twitch’ sentiment pretty well. I seriously don’t understand the appeal and then stories like this where someone’s own fans troll them is just like... Of course they did, and then the streamer himself has an unmeasured response... that’s why I don’t get this whole…

Everything about this story is annoying. Obviously Squirr3l’s behavior, and the fact that they knew each other for a while. But also that Cheese did in fact break the world record, and got a bunch of donations to his channel, and all he could do was whine about the behavior of some asshole who actually paid him to…

you do realize that an exploit can be an adventure or a feat?

A new Iron Pineapple video the same week we MWO players get a new theb33f video?

You’ve never cooked a date dinner before? Maybe watched a movie and had some drinks? And even if maybe you’re comfortable taking a leak in front of them, do you expect everyone else to feel the same? I once had a flat where the toilet had no door, but was downstairs and around a corner, like a dungeon toilet. Even…

I don’t think a murphy bed would work. There’s no suitable wall.

OK, Japanese futon is not meant to be slept on a bare hardwood floor like this flat has. It has to be on a tatami, otherwise you invite both back problems and a futon that degrades quickly due to excess moisture. The kind of sleeping arrangement you’re talking about is only really possible in old style Japanese flats…

I’m sure we have all, at least once, rushed into our homes, cheeks clenched, trying to prevent our Lobsterfest dinner from bursting out. When that happens, we all wish the toilet was just a bit closer to the front door. This apartment is perfect for those occasions.
