Ask a Question, Get Deep!

Well, better than actually disassembling the whole engine, putting it back together, and finding out it works without having any clue why. XD

[Chozon1]

I can live with that, actually.

The Destiny 2 gameplay trailer?

More of a second trailer rather than gameplay trailer....but still. HYPED.

[Deepfreeze32]

For a gameplay trailer, there was surprisingly little gameplay. XD

Does look good though.

[Chozon1]

Seems to be the consensus of the internets. I was kinda disappointed...but also not at all disappointed. XD

Repticon?

[Deepfreeze32]

Not entirely sure what that is, but Google says it's a reptile convention? I like reptiles, but not a whole lot. lol

[Chozon1]

Not just reptiles; small mammals too. ^_^ I do love me some hedgehogs. XD

Violins?

[Deepfreeze32]

Would really like to learn to play it. However, money is a bit tight right now...

Burritos?

[Deepfreeze32]

I love burritos. Doesn't matter if they're high quality (Think proper Mexican food), upper class fast food (Chipotle, Freebirds, etc), or taco bell, I'm always down for a burrito.

[Chozon1]

The deuce. I've recently stumbled onto frozen burritos that actually taste amazing, and I'm kinda hooked. There's something satisfying about warm beans and cheese. <3

The stigma surrounding competitive gaming?

[Deepfreeze32]

There are two kinds of stigma I see around competitive gaming.

The first is the whole "Games aren't a real <sport/event/thing>" and to those, I have nothing to say. They are dumb-dumbs.

The second isn't so much a stigma around competitive gaming, but the way competitive gamers act. Things like sexist/racist trash talk, harassment, pretty much everything about the competitive smash bros community (Mainly the undue adoration of the gamecube controller as a fighting controller and this insane notion that Melee is the best game in the series). There's a level of elitism and hostility to some competitive gamers, and that kind of attitude can kindly go eff off.

I vote atomic wedgies for both accounts. In the last episode of the Amazing Race, they went to South Korea and in something I thought was surprisingly cool, one of the obstacles for the racing teams was to beat a professional Street Fighter player.

Only one of the competitors, in a stunning show of American awesomeness, spent the entire time complaining that she was getting beaten by some random jerk teen in a fake competition, and she didn't have time to play video games because she had a real life to live, and that she couldn't believe the race was hinging on something so stupid, and so on, and so on. O_o

I mean granted, the guy was beating her blindfolded and using only one hand, so I would have been a little upset too. But still.

Power outages?

[Deepfreeze32]

There was a 24 hour power outage in downtown Portland last week. 9 PM Monday to 9 PM Tuesday. Was not a ton of fun, even though I never had to go downtown.

[Chozon1]

We had a bad storm last week and lost power for about three hours...up in Memphis though, it was down for three or four days. Which just sounds terrible to me. XD

Crawfish?

[Deepfreeze32]

That...wow. I would straight up leave to go to a place with power. XD

Crawfish are tasty, if super messy.
