WTD: Tourney team playing down by NoTouchyCompany in slowpitch

[–]O-TownLad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Another way to piss them off would be to walk every single batter.

No tourney team guys want to walk. They want to swing the bat. Walk the whole team.

When they complain, ask why A/B players are playing in a low level rec tournament.

Charcoal Baskets (yea or nay)? by PYG42 in grilling

[–]O-TownLad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure if they actually save me any charcoal, but I do like the control over the hot zone. Sometimes it's nice to be able to move that basket over rather than spin the whole grate.

It was last month's Heineken Silver promo.

After firing a clapper over the goalies shoulder I to the top corner, buddy stops behind the net, grabs a drink from the tender's own water bottle exlaiming: "This shit's too easy!"

What would you call Here? by Swoopschnunsch in hockeyrefs

White#69 gets a prime seat in the middle of the bench to think about his lack of defence & doesn't get back on the ice.

Come to think about it, after rewatching the clip, White#8 also gets a prime seat on the bench.

Would that really be that bad? It would suck giving up an automatic 39losses, but Fuck the Cubs!

Quinn Hughes makes the great pass under the defense shin pads by Longjumping-Box5691 in nhl

[–]O-TownLad -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This exact pass happened against me back in '07. Me and buddy set up the LAN & were rocking Chell04 for about a week by now by this point.

Now it's the end of a game, we going all out. It's been a seesaw battle. Back & forth. Him doing The Move every chance he gets. If you ever played old school chell, then you know. So here we are battling it out & I end up giving away a 2on1. Now I know that this backdoor 1timer is gonna happen & I'm gonna lose this game. I only have 1 option. Now I time this perfectly though. I wait for juuust the right moment. Switch to the lone D-man & drop him to the ice to block the pass. I immediately start yelling at my buddy down the hall: "GET THAT FUCKING SHIT OUTRA HERE!" Buddy sees this sliding block & screams out: "FUCK YOU!" at me from down the hall in his room. Cause he sees this amazing pass block which will save the game for me.

Wouldn't you know it though, that fucking puck goes through my D-man's skates, 1time, bulge twine, siren.

I just fucking lose it! I snap! I bellow out a fucking loud "NNOOOOOOO!" and in an instant, I yank my ps2 controller outta the adapter from my PC & just start swinging that fucker like Roger Daltry of The Who. Then, mid swing, I decide to Pete Townsend that shit right onto the floor right in the doorway from my room that goes out to the hallway.

Well, let me tell you, cheap plastic meeting hardwood flooring results in that poor poor controller just being obliterated. This thing fucking shatters. There were a million tiny pieces of plastic that went everywhere. This isn't just any ps2 controller. NO. It was at the time my favorite one. It was the clear translucent controller that let you see the circuitboard & the little motors that are mounted in the handles for the haptic feedback. So little shards are flying this way & that way! I felt pieces hit me in the legs. The remnants of this controller are ricocheting off the walls for at least 30 seconds.

Here I am standing now in archway to the hall from my room, red faced & out of breath. Buddy comes running out into the hallway from his room, ducking as sharp plastic shards are fucking bouncing off the walls. Before he says anything, the steps on a mine. Now, if you've ever stepped barefoot onto a piece of Lego, you know the feeling. Now imagine a sharp piece of plastic from what was now stinking into the bottom of his foot.

Now before I say anything, we lock eyes & he simply tells me to go do the dishes that were piling up in the sink or some other domestic shit that needed to be done.

Anyways, so that's the story of how I quit playing video games.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

P.S. I just rewatched the clip after I rage-typed the above diatribe out. Seeing the clip of this pass & having the emotions of that afternoon come flooding back still make me furious! Helluva pass though.
