thanks (#2) and also a no-thanks
OK, so I missed a couple days of thanking people:
I’d like to thank the guy and gal at BLUE in West Allis (Around like, 73rd and Greenfield)
The two cashiers were both super happy (at least on the outside), despite, you know, working on a Sunday, they were both super helpful, offered a lot of insight, and helped us make a genuinely good purchase.
Also I’d like to thank Lauren Faust, because PONIES ARE THE BOMB, YO.

No-thanks to some random StarCraft player in a 3v3 game of Tug-o-War on Desert Strike, at around 9PM CST on the NA server.
I seriously forgot his name already, he was that big of a douche.
He voted to ban me, from *the entire game type.*
Think of it like this: instead of saying: “robbie you’re not allowed to stick gum on all the bowling balls, you’re banned from this bowling alley.” he’s saying: “YOU ARE BANNED FROM BOWLING. EVER. AGAIN. ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.”
I would like to point out that my “mistake” helped us stay in the game till about round 70. I’d also like to point out that my “mistake” wasn’t really a mistake, considering you had two booms, and I only had one. You could’ve boomed at any time broham.
Seriously, it’s a game, and I had a FRICKEN GREAT TIME. The game was genuinely intense and I was giving it my all. PLUS we lured the other team into a false GG and held the game for another FIFTY ROUNDS.
You should never be upset with A RANDOM STRANGER because they’re not “playing the game right.”
Seriously, I propose we make some kind of fun-aptitude test that gauges how fun you are, and require people to take the test every time they buy a new video game.
I think that would eliminate a large percentage of overweight-30something-virgin-douche-o-rama’s from buying the game and spoiling it for everyone.
I also think that if we work in a bit of objective knowledge into this aptitude test, we could probably weed-out the majority of the 12-year-olds playing first person shooters and ruining it for the rest of us.
tl;dr: Assholes need to stop playing games. If you’re not having fun, put the game away and go do something that is fun. If you seriously have nothing else fun in your life, I recommend re-evaluating life.
