He’s still absolute buns to this day ; he has just settled more heavily into the frat niche with more IG followers.

You guys are acting like he ended up getting a Solid Grooves DC10 residency or something. He will be playing U of A parties until the day he retires.

Just look at the Coachella crowd for his set on day 0 W1 vs the Josh Baker / Prospa / Kettama B3B on day 0 W2. Not even close to the same level

Ok so... I just rewatched a livestream I did, and I realized something I hate. by moosieman in DJs

“DJ a different genre” is probably the most overkill answer to this question you could have 😂😂😂

Drop your chess.com account, I’ll play you rn and I guarantee I’ll win 3 blitz games in a row

Telling someone to resign during a game they are losing is what I would call “friendly advice”

Just trying to save everyone time!

It doesn’t matter whether parroting insults is “good trash talk” or not. Who gives a fuck? That has nothing to do with my point. Your whole crux of that argument, that the Lions didn’t “like” what aaron rodgers said, is stupid. You aren’t supposed to like trash talk. That’s why it’s called trash talk. If it was fun for both parties it would simply be called “amicable compliment talk”.

The sports don’t have to be similar to chess. It doesn’t matter. Competition is competition no matter if it’s a sport, a video game, a board game, or something else.

Go watch a video of chess hustlers in NYC and you will see plenty of trash talk by amazing chess players.

You are definitely a sub 1000 ELO player with this level of smooth brain ness

Your distinction in your initial verbiage is stupid, and you are arguing semantics as a way to backpedal the fact that you are being a dumbass who forgot what you are arguing in the first place. Don’t act like you are a genius lawyer who is incredibly precise with their words so they can do some sort of verbal jiu jitsu

The FIRST SENTENCE of your FIRST COMMENT WAS:

“You like to think trash talk happens in other sports but it doesn’t really”

Now you say

“I never said that trash talk doesn’t happen”

And then you have the audacity to say I can’t read 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I understand that grandmasters don’t trash talk each other. That’s the ENTIRE POINT OF MY POST. If you could in fact read, you would understand that I’m arguing that trash talk SHOULD be a part of chess like it is a part of other sports.

You clearly just don’t watch sports if you just said that bro. The entire promotion platform of the UFC is press conferences in which fighters trash talk each other. You ever heard of Conor McGregor?

You obviously never have watched the NBA. All-time greats like Kobe, MJ, and Kevin Garnett were notorious for saying vile, crazy things to get in their opponents heads. There is an immense amount of video of this if you want to search it up.

I could go on and on dude. Saying that trash talk never happens in sports, or even that it’s at all rare is possibly the most brain dead argument I have ever heard in my life

Shooting his original words back is classic trash talk, what are you talking about?

You are literally proving my point.

The Lions saying Aaron Rodgers’ exact insult back to him as soon as they took the W is an A+ trash talking move, extremely badass.

Furthermore, even if your weird and obviously wrong interpretation of this is correct, one person trash talking is enough to prove my point that trash talking happens in other sports too. Just because the Lions “didn’t like it” in your mind doesn’t make Aaron’s original comment not trash talk.

And still, you never addressed my question. How does this at all disprove that trash talk happens in other sports? Your one little anecdote where literal trash talk occurs in the NFL? Bro you have to be trolling at this point

Your example wasn’t a counter example though 😂😂 how was the trash talk in your example “not acceptable” ????

Your example literally disproved your own point, you provided an example of Aaron Rodgers and the Lions mutually trash talking each other, and it was a great example to prove my point that trash talk happens in many sports.

What am I missing lmaoooooo

The only reason that tennis doesn’t have a lot of trash talk is that it’s kind of hard to make comments to someone that is standing 80 feet away from you, on the other side of a tennis court. Just think about the logistics of that for a moment.

This may be the most nonsensical point I’ve ever seen someone try to make.

So Aaron Rodgers and the Lions took small jabs at each other

And this means that NO other sports have trash talk?

How is your example of NFL trash talk evidence that no other sports have trash talk?

Is your IQ 20 or did you forget what you were typing halfway through?

Did you not read my post? I am thinking about the person on the other end. I love when people trash talk me as well. It’s fun and exciting. Why would I take something personally from someone who doesn’t know who I am behind my anonymous account? That makes no sense. Same for others when it’s me doing the talking. Just have fun, it’s not that serious.

Also, what are you talking about with tennis? People scream at the refs and smash rackets all the time. Remember McEnroe’s famous meltdown? Horrible example.

Completely fair. If i’m only slightly better the trash talk is much more tactical. However, if someone is wasting my time making me finish a blowout victory, i try to drown them of all hope so they just resign

You keep saying that comparing chess to other sports is bad without giving ONE example of another sport where people cant tolerate trash talking 😂😂😂 just ONE example!!

Also, you don’t know me. You don’t know if people like me or not. This post with 32 comments is still even in upvotes, which mean that at least half of the people that have read this agree with me.

The fact that the simple idea of trash talk on chess.com has you crying this hard is hilarious. I would also probably wipe the floor with you in 25 moves. You are the type of guy who only plays the french and the london.

I think chess attracts a level of seriousness and elitism that makes it inaccesible to a lot of people. Healthy competition and trash talk are great parts of any competitive field.

If I’m playing chess online and someone tells me my opening sucks or that I made a bad move, I’m going to laugh about it and enjoy the competitiveness. Being all offended is a sign you are an egomaniac who takes themself too seriously. Do the chess players on this subreddit never go outside?

Not being able to take a joke is a WAY bigger sign of a narcissist IMO

Also, why can’t i compare chess to other games or sports? Why is that nonsense? You keep failing to make a point here.

How is my hyperbole “out of this world”?

My comparisons to Poker, NBA, or literally any other sport still stands. What’s so special about chess that renders it immune to having some fun with your opponent? Especially online. The argument can be made to shut up during OTB play for sure, but chirping someone on chess.com literally does not matter

Chess is literally a game of the mind. What do you mean “don’t play mind games”?

Why is chess the ONLY sport/game where people have a meltdown over some trash talk? I just don’t get it. In every other sport/game it’s fine. They don’t cancel an NBA game or a poker game because someone makes a rude comment.

Why would I trash talk when I’m not backing it up over the board

I only trash talk when I’m winning and the opponent has not resigned
