Now the topic of brainrot, I can't really cringe whem these kids say that.

I mean I was the "good at Smash Bros" kid who did Waluigi Impressions and watched MLG meme vids, spouting "ooh baby a triple" every so often. And I was in middle school.

I was way way worse than these kids..

I think almost everyone in the modern day has that phase at some point. Kids and young teens just think referencing whatever popular or relevant memes are funny and think referencing them a lot makes them cooler and/or funnier. I know I went through that phase for a while lmao.

The thing that's probably causing people to consider a certain Source Engine series about singing heads in toilets taking over the world to be "brainrot" is how many episodes of it have turned up + the abundance of iPad Parents and content farms.

That, and Millennials and Gen Z seem to have completely forgotten just how absurd and stupid GMOD Machinimas from the late 2000s and all of the 2010s could get.

Ah, the rise of the TF2 "freak" monsters. Those were the days.

The types of humor they usually employed was usually violent, sometimes crude and always wacky, but hey, at least it was consistent. Plus, the Vs. fights so many people did were always cool.

I just find it funny how ubiquitous Gmod and SFM Brainrot is among the internet generations.

Be careful, someone might crack a joke about how you said "among".

If you want good brainrot videos, I can give one here.
We all had those moments when young kids and teens.

I am at work today during a severe thunderstorm, no power, and locked in the store. And I still got over 6 hours of my shift left.

LA-DEE-****ING-DA! :glare:

Ah ah ah. According to the Batman/Fortnite comics, if you're in fortnite you can't talk.

But it also depicts how once you escape the loop you regain your memories and can talk again, and since I have won a game here and there, that means I am now free.

What Endgame Persona should I aim for in P3R? Heard Yo****sune's not in this one
Click to expand...
either Satanael or Cybele with a Megidolaon (or any almighty) skill card attached to her. Tho for future playthrough (if it ever happens), Messiah would be a nice addition as well

This man apparently doesn’t want to leave, as I got this on a daily:

Which is sweet because I wanted that 3/5 lol. Mt psychic types were very lacking and some how latias and Deoxys barely clutch up psycho stages now.

Fortnite collab rumor update time:

1. Skeletor (Masters of the Universe) is happening.
2. Persona 3 was supposed to collab back around March (before the Greek mythology season), but was put on hold.

I went to pick up Echoes of Wisdom but then it dawned on me just how ****ing stacked this year has been for games that I did not end up picking it up because of not only the several games I haven't picked up yet (Granblue Relink, Astro Bot, VII Rebirth, Infinite Wealth, Tekken 8, The MVC Collection, Gundam Breaker 4, The Epic Mickey Remaster) and then the next several months has even more games I am excited for (Sonic x Shadow, Sparking Zero, Mario Party, PlanCo 2, Mario and Luigi)

I still really want Echoes of Wisdom but I have to prioritize and budget this **** first.

I think a lot of gamers are being drowned with so much good games, but with so little time to play them. Of course, not all the time depending on the gamer's taste.

Heck, even Helldivers 2 with their recent massive weapons buff patch gets me to come back.

Spaceballs 2 is in the works.

If they don’t call it Spaceballs 2: In Search of More Money, what’s the point of it?

That post of mine has now aged even more poorly.
