to be perfectly honest, i think CT just saw him as a cashcow, someone to generate income by streaming whenever. he wears their t shirt at apex and they can say they "sponsor" him, he agrees to do an AMA on reddit (which is mostly melee guys trying to expand the scene even more, it feels like) for some reason - they probably thought they could rile up some more interest if the legendary isai is telling stories about his past. and if m2k and isai teamed up in doubles, that's another lol moment - CT takes all the doubles events at apex!!!

or maybe i'm just a huge conspiracy theorist, believe the worst in people, and am overthinking everything

Spot on with the first point but not with the 2nd point. They wanted Isai to do an AMA to put 64 in the spotlight for once.

COBR ALWAYS HATIN
Of course Chibo is going to try to get as much revenue as he can, but you're talking about the Melee community as if they were some sort of big corporation. Both GIMR and Chibo started their respective streaming "businesses" from nothing, and sponsoring players is going to help them (aka the biggest independent SMASH streamers) get more attention, and in turn SMASH gets more attention.

If it wasn't for CT streams, or Brawl for that matter, I wouldn't be here playing 64. Not that I'm very good at it, but it spreads the word.

I think you believe the worst in people bro. We all have our goals. What's wrong with them trying to achieve theirs? I still love me some cobrthesamus main though

i have to automatically believe the worst in people, otherwise there's the potential for someone to take advantage of my trust.

didn't they figure 95% of the questions he'd get would be related to melee? i dunno, it just doesn't seem like a great idea.

like i said, though, maybe i'm being crazy. shrug.

Blehh.

I have so much to post but have been busy... but mostly lazy.

Umm

@ Komotonoto Komotonoto , but yeah I got you. I also realized I didn't have any Sonic on my list I don't think.

But like trying to keep my nostalgia back, Sonic 2 with an honorable mention to Sonic 1.

Double red wasn't that bad, just like regular donating. Still almost passed out like every other time. Sprite is a miracle drink.

Reminds me of the Psych videos I made with people that involved cross-dressing, bunny suits, and poor attempts at acting ghetto

It was actually one of my friends who did that part.

WHICH LEAVES ONE OF TWO OTHER PARTS TO ME. Maybe I should've said nothing.

Anyone else restlessly excited to see this movie? Its only negative review was that it had way too many jokes too fast for kids, and adults, to pick up on. A movie's only downside being that you need to watch it several times to fully enjoy every aspect of it while still thoroughly enjoying it the first time, doesn't seem like such a big problem. Especially considering Hollywood's current absentminded state and every comedy being a cheap reincarnation of Superbad and produced by Judd Apatow, this seems like cinematic gold.

One of the reviews for the film:

"Kids, this is what drugs are like."

i swear some time ago every comedy i'd watch there was this seth rogen dude playing an obnoxious wimp character with a stupid laugh. he's the young nic cage: is present in every move; is annoying in 99% of them.

She clearly wasn't a blonde soccer player casually trying to eat a cheesesteak then.

The modern comedy = Judd Apatow + Judd Apatow friends - comedy script.
