Tastosis is easier to have in the background while doing other stuff, and Afreeca is a more annoying site to use, but, yeah

Re: starcraft
that’s my most recent oneWhen I first started playing StarCraft I was very surprised at how insolent and rude the Vulture driver was, so much so that I never built the unit in any of my games. Then I began to think about a schoolmate of mine who was also very rude and standoffish, who I disliked until I found out what had happened. It turned out that his father said that he was going to buy some cigarettes but instead he drove off a cliff into a ravine and his head fell off. I mean, yeah it was kind of funny at first, but it made me understand where the anger was coming from. Perhaps the Vulture pilot also had something similar happen to him? Food for thought!

One time I accidentally drank an entire bottle of cough syrup and had a dream that zerglings were coming down the chimney to attack the pylons in my house. When I woke up I was relieved to find out that the animals coming down my chimney were just rats!
i think those are pretty funny as wellDid you know that the human brain is 85% cartilage? That’s why it’s so difficult to micro units and macro at the same time — you only have 25% of actual brains at your disposal!

Re: starcraft
i may have only 25% of a brain but you best believe I'm using 100% of the 10% of the 25% of my brain that I'm using

Re: starcraft
About 10 years ago I was at a party in Spain and I was chatting up a beautiful woman from Brazil who spoke nearly perfect English. It was going great — the wine was flowing, sparks were flying, lots of eye (I) contact and laughs were being exchanged. After a while I brought up the big question: “So, what did you think of Fenix’s sacrifice in the Brood War campaign?”
She looked at me blankly. “I’m sorry? The what?”
“Fenix. His sacrifice on Korhal.” I replied dryly. “From Brood War.”
“I’m sorry, I guess I haven’t seen that movie.” She said as she nervously combed her fingers through her hair.
“Movie?” I shot back. “Is that some kind of joke? No honey, not a movie. Brood War: the bestselling, critically acclaimed game for PC! One of the most impactful game of the 90s!”
I could sense that things were starting to go sour. No more exchanged glances. She was looking at the floor now. It didn’t matter how well I explained the intricacies of Protoss civilization, or how many facts I recited about Korean Bonjwa Jaedong, it was clear that this broad was just not going to get it.
“Well, I think I better get going.” I said as I jammed as much cheese from the party platter into my pockets as I could fit. Then I sprinted onto the streets of Madrid and burst into tears.
I still think about that day from time to time. Oh, to be young again!

Re: starcraft
Did you know that Starcraft was the first video game to use animals as part of the playtesting team? Blizzard apparently bought 2 chimps and a baboon from a black market zoo based out of Florida, and tried to use their "innate, unfiltered reactions" to help them build the game. The results were a complete disaster. The apes quickly destroyed over 15 computers and bit lead designer Chris Metzen on the arm, requiring multiple stitches. Although the authorities suggested re-homing the animals, Blizzard had them all euthanized by throwing them into the middle of a lake. Very sad story, but Brood War still remains one of the best games of all time!

Re: starcraft
Starcraft is way too deterministic, there should be more RNG to keep the game interesting. Maybe every time you built a unit, sometimes nothing would come out of the building/egg? Obviously not every time, but like 50% of the time. That way it would keep you on your toes! It would be really exciting that way.
