I actually wish I never found out about tf2 as awful as it sounds and I'm sure I'm not the only one person that thinks this. Don't get me wrong, tf2 is actually the best game I've ever played, and there's a reason I have 5k hours in the game. From watching the Ready Up documentary I distinctly remember the part where truktruk mentioned how tf2 is addicting because you're constantly trying to get better to improve your logs and to just get better at the game. This is so true, but it's literally an addiction and I've been so blind to realize and think it was just "normal" for a kid to be playing video games. Playing tf2 became a daily routine and something I spent my weekends doing and nothing else. I love the community around tf2 and all the people I've interacted with within it, but looking back it has taken over my life for the past 3 years. My grades are still really good thankfully but other aspects of my life are just suffering from it.

I got super pissed today at my dad because he unplugged my ethernet cord during a scrim I was playing tonight with my team and after cooling down I'm realizing how idiotic it actually was. Playing tf2 and especially ESEA where other people are relying on you, not so much becomes a chore because I love playing the game, but when something happens so that you have to miss a scrim/match, it's like somebody's keeping me home from a soccer game because I didn't take out the trash the previous night or something like that. I hate that feeling because you're legitimately mad at your dad over a video game man.

Holy rant, but hopefully others can relate and understand others are going through the same thing.

As a high school soccer player last year, I took cold baths with absolutely no hot water whatsoever during the summer and must I say it was a daily challenge. They're great for your recovery and you feel great afterwards, but getting yourself to fully submerge your body takes some serious willpower. My mindset was always, suffer for a couple minutes now, and hours of your life will be improved, and it always did. I stopped falling asleep in class and I was much more energetic on the field and in my daily life. I don't have much experience with cold showers, but I'm sure any type of cold water exposure would be beneficial both mentally and physically.

Pretty crazy to see Foles win it all after everyone doubted the Eagles of any chance when Wentz got injured

that's what you think

we cut dagger

my fellow comrade, ambroon

upon meeting this farmer, you'll soon grow to realize that he is among the most well-mannered individuals in this game

super cool and very good at the game

deserves a really good IM team he's pretty nuts at demo

this guy actually farms on demo, could probably play high open-low IM if he wanted to

Played some pugs with him yesterday and all I can say is that he's a good guy trying to learn more about competitive TF2. He may frustrate some people in higher level pugs but he's only got like 150 hours in the game. Always tries his best, so if you're trying to make a low open team this guy will listen to what you have to say. Once he learns the basics he'll be ESEA ready for sure.
