[i my have posted this before i donât remember]
though i have never teabagged myself - i donât really play online and am not very good at competitive stuff - i was SHOCKED when first i saw a player avatar mash-crouch on my tv. my girlfriend was getting into elden ring, her first souls-type. sheâs not much for playing online and i would have guessed she probably didnât actually know what âteabaggingâ even was. after a struggle, sheâd beaten a boss. margit, i think. then some latent gamer instinct kicked in and she mashed crouch as âENEMY FELLEDâ popped up. i was aghast.
elden ring is interesting because it has a very immediate crouch and demons/dark/bloodborne had no crouch at all. you relied on gestures to show disrespect online which is actually a cool way of giving players nonverbal communication. even sekiroâs crouch is a bit slower and more deliberate (and there is no PvP element).

I was out at a thrift store (not Platoâs Closet) yesterday that was only a couple blocks from the one deli in town that does Montreal style bagels right and if Iâd listened to this episode before heading out it would have been fresh in my mind and I would have known to swing by and get a sandwich there aack

my friend once told me that the halo fandom is true âsupport the troopsâ culture except 343 industries are the libs.
just a very funny observation i wanted to share. for further context, this observation came from us talking about the ânoble 14â which is a thing you should definitely look up.

The e3 halo 2 dual wielding discussion is a blessing unto the world thank you
I was amongst red neck Moores during those years and I heard the playground whispers so itâs funny to come full circle on that
I didnât really get it though, I understood it was an addition that wasnât in Halo 1, but Goldeneye had dual wielding and it was the direct predecessor to Halo as the console FPS king. Like I didnât have a N64, barely even played Goldeneye and didnât like it much, and still had suffered through dual wielding Klobbs.

Shout out to Tim for knowing off the top of his head that iOS 7 came out in 2013.

This episode got me thinking back to my shooter game memories and like some others have said mine were all various Halos as well.
The dad of one of my high school friends was a computer networking guy, and since broadband internet was mad expensive then they networked their house together with the next-door neighbour so they could share in the bounty (and cost) of sweet sweet 256kbps broadband.
This also meant the houses were networked together for awesome Halo 2 sessions. One team per house prevented screen looking and made for a really cool team experience.
Another vivid memory is a birthday party a friend of mine threw when I was in my early twenties (I think?) that eventually led to three TVs, three Xbox 360s, 3 copies of Halo 3 and a whole lot of Infection on a giant desert map.
I even have several photos since this was a time when we had phone/digicams on us and people actually shared them on Facebook so I could nab copies for myself.
