On October 9th, 2007, Team Fortress 2 was released to the world. Also some other games shipped too, in a game collection called The Orange Box, but between you and us, we were never really happy with how it was marketed:

still the TF TeamAnd now, ten years, 624 updates, 100+ maps, 60 billion kills, 20 trillion in damage done, 6 billion items created, 2 billion headshots, and lots and lots of hats (so many hats) later, Team Fortress 2 celebrates a solid decade in gaming! Of course, there's really nobody else to thank for that but you, the loyal player. Thanks for letting us share this ride with you! We have one of the best communities any game could ask for, and we've loved growing the game with all of you into the weird, wonderful thing it is today!
What's next, you ask? We're putting the finishing touches on a mammoth new update, and it'll be shipping in the very near future, we promise. How near? Well, very. Imminent. Not this week imminent, but you know. Really soon.
Also, we should mention that Shapeways is launching a Valve Design Contest to reward the best designs with epic prizes from Valve and Shapeways. The grand prize winner will receive a Team Fortress 2 Grey Medic statue and $500 in Shapeways printing credit, so if you're good at 3D design and like prizes, head on over and check it out!
Here's to another decade!

valve has the same definition of "imminent" as a police officer after shooting an unarmed black man

Reading these kind of blog posts reminds me of having to half-ass homework assignments last minute. Like you know you can write some bullshit to save face for how bad you've been procrastinating that will atleast seem tolerable and get an OKAY grade, but it comes with this real icky feeling like you're blackening your heart with lies and have to swallow the sour taste of your own ｉｎｓｉｎｃｅｒｉｔｙ as you ashamedly proofread it once before submitting

Mitch_this update better be 2 pages long
If you mean in like Word or something, 2 pages is nothing, Meet your Match is over 5 and almost every major update in the past is at least 3.
Considering the scale they've talked about it, it's likely going to be in the 10-15+ range.

Imminent has 8 letters. This is tf2's 10 birthday. Therefore, we know that the update will come out in 80 FUCKING YEARS.

me to me: just because it's the 10th anniversary doesn't mean you're guaranteed any game update or details on the update's progression, don't disappoint yourself
valve: soon

I remember they said pretty soon for the engineer update then it took another few months
could genuinely be a 2018 release

this cheeky brand of humor valve used has really gotten kind of old. feels like they're making fun of us more than anything at this point.

I sort of do get the feeling there's a fuckload of stuff in this update. Them referring to it as 'mammoth' there is sort of encouraging I guess.
On one hand I think the wait between updates is more than the community should have to endure, especially given the poor quality of the last update. On the flip side, I think they may be putting the right kind of effort into this update.
Now they've said imminent, surely it has to be within the next month?

definition of imminent is "about to happen"
valve said "we promise" in the blog post too
it'll probably be either next week or the week after that
