For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

It still cracks me up that Colton Burpo is the name of a real person.

Holy poo poo, nine years later I discover how direct a parody this was? I've known Carpiss Bunson and Chris del Chris forever but I always figured it was just kind of a pastiche parody, not a direct edit of an actual... some kind of whatever this is?

Except the first result for "Curtis Lepore" is a "Curtis Lepore Is a Rapist" Instagram account that documents his rape of his girlfriend and how he got off scott free.

EVO was this weekend, ended a little bit ago.

there was an audio issue so it was sending out to stream but not to the venue or commentators, so Yipes decided to help provide sound effects for the fight. love Yipes

Street Fighter 6 top 6 opened with this INSANELY HYPE intro, which includes Let's Go Justin, Raul Julia, and Guile's Theme, it's an incredible bop
https://twitter.com/EVO/status/1688375582000844800

the SF6 top 6 was legit one of the most incredible and hype final days of any EVO showing, and I highly, highly recommend giving it a watch. Timestamped at the start of the above song, it's the full unedited stream since a curated video isn't up yet. but man, like, my heart was pounding out of my chest with how incredible some of those matches were
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fdHEm0Vxq0&hd=1&t=34400s

The rest of the games had some good matches, but pretty much all of them either hand wet fart grand finals or mirror matches, but SF6 thankfully left the event on a high note. EVO is the superbowl to me

I don't remember hearing about that, and I would presume the setups they are playing at are all default and not modded. but it would also not surprise me at all if that happened during some side money matches in hotel rooms on people's personal setups. it'd certainly be one of the more mundane things to happen at evo

Most likely he's trying to hide his hand movements. Debatably useful for a fighting game, since it stops your opponent being able to see if you're inputting an attack before it's visually apparent on the screen.

It's also possible that his fightstick isn't safe for broadcast, but I suspect if it was that they'd just give him a generic one.

so his opponent can't see what he's doing with the arcade stick and predict his next move or figure out any potential tics he might have before performing certain attacks. It's just hilariously unfortunate looking.

There's also a guy who basically had a gigantic cardboard hot pocket sleeve to fit his arcade stick in for a similar reason. Just the silliest loving setup. He won the King of Fighters tournament:

The Kimberly player just strolling up to Chun in an "oh this match is not happening" sort of way is great

Forgive my ignorance about fighting games, but that's, what, a hundredth of a second between him pressing the button and the input being displayed on screen? How is that much of an advantage?

I know some chuds got mad at the last installment for making Chun Li thicc. So at least a few years. But she's a fighter. She'd realistically have some thunder thighs.

It's a lot more pronounced a delay than that given in many cases people are buffering inputs behind other moves, but it's there, especially if an attack input is fairly long or distinctive. For example: while this guy's not playing Zangief, Zangief does have a special that requires a full 360-degree motion. That's not just gonna take some time to input relatively speaking, but your opponent's gonna be able to see it coming out of their peripheral vision before they get any other visual feedback.

It's most likely paranoia and scraping for tiny advantages, but it's not the dumbest thing in the world.

I was impossibly good at screen cheating cod2 on 360. They'd eventually start running around having to look at the ground because I was so good until I figured out where they were just from the ground tiles. Coupled with the grenade mechanics I very rarely lost
