I've lost my ability to be funny

what's funny? you think a good jazz fusion drummer couldnt walk into a studio and lay down a track for whatever shitty pop or rap song they need?

jazz/fusion/classical musicians (anyone who isnt scared to color chords with flat/sharp 7/11/13ths and venture outside of 4/4 really) are by far at the top of the game mentally/dexterously and if you disagree you literally have no fucking idea what you're talking about

This happens a lot more than you think. It's why some people are naturally more dextrous (sometimes significantly more) than others. The argument is whether or not anybody could reach maximum dexterity despite how naturally dextrous they are.

I also feel like genetics is being used as an umbrella term in this discussion, and I would consider someone's attitude/approach towards improving as part of who they are i.e genetics. Somebody willing to improve however could make the efforts to change their attitude.

Also you might aswell believe that natural talent does not exist if you think it can't for tf2. People termed naturally talented at an instrument for example just click with the instrument and learn it very quickly in the same way somebody naturally talented at a game/tf2 just clicks with the game, learns it quickly and applies what he's learnt with less effort than somebody who's no good at video games.

I think some people are simply more prone to being good at video games than others. Like the video jyrkas linked, you could try your hardest, but you will eventually reach your own skill ceiling and won't be able to get any better.

I like to think of it this way: the person who is most likely to be the absolute best at TF2 of all time most probably never has and never will play the game. Someone out there is genetically the perfect candidate for TF2, it's just that he probably did not find out about TF2, never having the opportunity to fulfill his potential.

Do you think anybody could be the best at TF2 with enough dedication to getting better? Or do you believe that some people simply cannot reach the top, no matter how hard they try?

Explain your reasoning as to why

Yes. Please stop supporting this idea of "Here's some money but you're only allowed to spend it where I want you to"

For the record, I haven't listened to every single KLamar guest verse ever, so if there's some really good ones out there that can prove me wrong, please let me know. I guess I'm mainly worried that he's going end up being another one of those artists we'll end up saying he's washed up and no longer as good as he used to be.

Do you think Kendrick Lamar's been falling off? I know this isn't a new discussion, but any guest verses he's dropped that I've listened to after DAMN seemed to lack a certain something I can find in GKMC and TPAB. Feels like he's gone pop tbh. What y'all think?

i really need to shavs my nuts. LOL

Take an hour or 3 to zone out and forget everything related to whatever's stressing me and listen to some music
