have you ever been to ny or are you literally just talking about dominos

nah because I was lucky enough to not grow up in the suburbs

only if you prefer neapolitan pizza to ny style!

(although I've heard some people lowkey prefer pizza from rome which I've never had)

yeah playing horse with your dad and your little sister and then going to chuck e cheese after sure sounds fun!

p.s. the problem with the uk is that their entire history of good local produce, seafood etc. was singlehandedly eradicated by the existence of this video:

america has plenty of great food, the problem is we also invented these open-air prisons called "suburbs" where all happiness goes to die

some of us were blessed to live in places w/ more consistently good nosh tho!

although I will say it's hard to top places like spain and france for sheer consistency (with probably the single best food city I've ever been to being san sebastian)

I would say doom and atcq are vastly better than aesop rock so idk where I fit in that equation

good shout

invite team is dead, for once it wasn't my fault yay!!! (still got fucked tho)

judging by that team spreadsheet going around pretty much every invite/high advanced team is pretty happy with their current demoman so I know this is almost certainly not gonna lead to good offers but in case someone has to quit halfway thru the season or something I am here

before my team imploded I felt like I was competitive with the other demos in low/mid invite (not sure which teams fall into which of those two terms, it's pretty arbitrary)

at the very least I was doin well enough to help ensure that we got force moved up which was reason 1 our team died lmao (to be clear I was fine with playing advanced or invite either way)

warning to advanced teams: don't scrim this team because if you beat them you will be moved up to invite

Hey only two people have said joyner lucas and no one has said logic, we’re doing better than we could’ve been

in terms of people who have released shit recently enough to feel like they're still current (bc I am an old fart):

denzel curry
milo
mick jenkins
killer mike
someone from the uk (M9, wiley, lee scott, ocean wisdom, four owls, idk)
hon mention: billy woods, the doppelgangaz

lots of people who im not sure if they qualify as current though but are always hanging around (like kendrick lamar or mf doom or black thought or andre 3000)

that's why it's incumbent upon leagues to create a no-med speed cup, either during the season or REALLY early next offseason

keep in mind you're talking to one of the biggest boomers in this game right now. I personally agree that the game hasn't changed that much in the past 4 years or so, but the only viable devil's advocate argument against an immediate revert is still "we don't know EXACTLY how it will function in 2020, maybe meds will die too much to the more skilled soldiers, etc."

testing the mode extensively removes that complaint, leaving only the selfish scout and med zoomers and the delusional "tf2 needs to be esports" people, and they're hopeless, so it's the best way to build consensus

speaking as someone in favor of reverting the med speed buff, I think it's still prolly right to give that one time to be tested and hopefully do it for next season (same goes for rgl)

the others are no brainers ofc
