Random Video Game Crap

[ThatNickGuy]

I installed Idle Master today, which syncs with your Steam account and makes it think you're in game. Which then helps you accumulate trading cards.

I left it on this afternoon and I already have about 20 cards. Not bad. Still 245 in total to get.

I tried watching a couple of PewDiePie videos after the giant controversy where he announced he was deleting his account (he wasn't; he was joking/trolling for subscriptions).

Why is this asshole so popular? He's a dick. He doesn't even do Let's Plays anymore, the thing that put him on the map.

Because children are morons.

I mean, I look at a guy like Markiplier, who seems like a genuinely nice guy. Maybe overreacts in his videos like most YouTubers, but his heartfelt personal videos always come across as genuine.

PewDiePie just comes across as an asshole.

Yeah, I've liked the occasional Markiplier video.

My best friend's 7 year old daughter loves Pewdiepie and hates Markiplier, says he's "dumb."

Now there's a guy who's really riding the wave while maintaining a cheery persona, etc. "Worst" thing about him, if I had to choose anything, would be his trademark laugh. But it grows on you.

Like "fey-got" or "Fah-goh"?

Is that the onomotopeia for the sound a sabot makes when it separates at the muzzle from a high velocity kinetic slug?

Related: did an image search for "kinetic slug". Was not disappointed.

It's more a local thing, I suppose.

I've seen my share of videos of both and I have to agree with you.

Plus, there's one video of Mark where he spoke of his past and it was very well spoken, I liked the guy and subbed to him but that video short of him turning into Hitler, made me a long-time fan.

It's more of a Juggalo thing, IIRC.

Sure, but that's hardly isolated to Pink Sheep.

A basic primer on how logic circuits work in Factorio. Interesting stuff.

This feels like work.

Just think of it like redstone circuits, only more complicated.

All these years in radio and I still thought "Everquest settings? whaa..? Oh... EQUALIZER."

It's clear I'm a gamer first.

Wouldn't mind trebling that bass, you know what I'm saying?

Well, as a verb, it would mean you want to make it three times its current size.

True story: One time while drinking, a friend asked what I'd want if I could make a wish about myself. There are a lot of good answers, but instead of those, I apparently said, "A dick big enough to play 'whack-a-mole' with."[DOUBLEPOST=1482192770,1482192739][/DOUBLEPOST]

Had to look that up.

Good lord.

No, that's alright. I prefer the "coke bottle" or "cello", occasionally even "pear" silhouette as opposed to, um, "Teotihuacuan Pyramid of the Moon"
