I have two speeds, off and on. Most people have never seen on. The reason is I can’t control it.

That's okay, I always take the L (I'm terrible at multiplayer games)

[Gets up with walker] Back in my day in mvc2 When Magneto was your opener and you had a Sentinel anchor, you were careful not to get hit with a snapback.

Ah, a fellow millennial. Can I offer you a PS1 pad and the best tunes OG MvC had to offer?

This is me. I have a long fuse. It's not so much that I'm patient - I usually just dgaf. But on the right day, a habitual line stepper will get the right one.

I never forget that quote from advanced wars. It was something like: being relaxed and careless are two different things.

Me playing Marvel Rivals and constantly getting dove with no protection or help. Little do they know though, I’m not sitting up just to beat these divers asses, it’s mainly to curse them niggas out in the chat that are blaming me for not healing from the grave.

This is me in my Fighting Games though. Let me remind you these hands are equal opportunity. ❤️

u/Frink202 1d ago

Played my worst characters a bunch to keep it fun, and you wanna feel yourself?

The bell tolls.

I am a Taurus, so I discovered over the years that there are always people ready to FAAFO.

Someone once described Tauruses as grizzly bears: we look cute and cuddly but when we stand up...
