They cheated every step of the way to get to where they are and/or their parents did and possibly instilled those values into them, they don't understand or apreciate how much fun and fullfilling it is to play a game like this... I was playing the board game Risk with a group of people and one of the players was great at the game, and I was the second best player playing, however I had more "game (coolness)" this then guy did. Well, I figured out that one of the players was intentionally playing bad and stupid in order to help me out and I called her on it right there in front of everyone, there was like 5 or 6 of us there and I vowed to never play with that person again. There's a time and a place for eveything.
I didn't make a big scene out of it and I made the "vow" the following day. But it was lame as hell because I like playing the game and I like playing other players and getting thier best game w/o any bullshit involved.
This is absolutely my favourite post of 2010. I don't know why exactly, but I've already read it three times and it actually gets better with each and every read. I think it is possibly due to how absolutely pointless and irrelevent it is. Yet it also has the whiff of an attempt to actually be on-topic. Odd. Or maybe it is that the many elements involved... dodgy dice, power tripping admins, how said admins were brought up, girl helps him win at Risk so he humiliates her... seem to not connect together at all and yet in a way they do. I've read it five times now...it speaks to me somehow. I can't help but think the writer masturbates to an unusually great extent and does so in public places, like under his desk in maths or by rubbing himself against his pew in church. Are his palms hairy? Almost certainly. His eyesight poor? Without question. Does he have a foot fetish? I can but think he does. His mind is disordered, probably from the excessive masturbating (for as we all know once a week is prudish, once a day is fine and once an hour makes you mad, bad, blind, chafed and hell-bound) yet there is light between bouts. I predict the chap actually masturbated twice during the very writing of this piece...probably between the point about Lack's upbringing and the story about the saucy minx who patronised his play.
Oh and BigballinStalin, you forgot that Indian Stomach = 666!
Glad my point resonated like it did at the very least subconsciencly. You got it. I was in a postion to use my higher ground/leverage/game as an advantage to beat an aponant that was better than me (at Risk) and I was purturbed and offended that a deuchebag would assume I would want to do that under these circumstances and defeat the whole purpose of playing the game in the first place. In other words I was telling a story that illustated I was being objective in my conclusion that you're all a bunch of stupid fuckin dipshits. So, you restorted to attacking the person making the argument rather than the issue.
As far as humiliating the girl. f*ck her. I didn't make a scene I merely pointed it out in front of everyone so she'd knock it the f*ck off. You don't think the guy that was a better player than I was whom I had really been looking forward to playing a straight game with didn't notice what the hell she was doing? You don't think he didn't know why and feel like a total dick? I've been in that guy's position as well a few times in life (not playing Risk) and what made it all the more worse was that no one ever did what I had done.
WHOA, guess what I just did:
I looked over at the avatar for several nanoseconds and saw Woodruff. Imagine my surprise at stumbling across Woodruff's evil darkside--the coarse language, the crass-nasti-ness of it all! Imagine the shock+horror I felt as Woodruff flat out said, "Oh. That bitch? f*ck her. [paraphrased]." Double black back flips of the mind, a brief meltdown--Oh ohhh! Why couldn't those backflips be white?? The horror! The repercussiosn!!! cushuns...---BUT THEN, lo and behold! It's not Woodruff, and "all is well in the world" like the opening scene of Super Metroid for SNES.
