Fast-Rising Valorant Rookie Begins Slur Training

Posted on March 29, 2024 by Matt Fresh

DALLAS — Jon “SnipeSmoke” Straiham a Valorant rookie who has been quickly rising through the competitive scene, has confirmed that he is set to begin slur training.

Straiham has taken the Valorant competitive scene by storm recently and is ready to fully round out his game.

“I’m ready to step my game up and get to the next level. I know I’m really good at the fundamentals like map awareness and shooting but anyone can be good at that, what separates the casuals from the pros is your skill at hurling slurs and both friend and foe,” said Straiham.

“I grew up in a pretty progressive household where my parents taught us to respect others and be mindful of offensive language which is useless if you want to play Valorant at a high level. I’ve got the best coaches with me and I’m ready to learn.”

One such coach is 25-year-old retired Valorant pro Noah “MamaKakaBoBoDay” Marks.

“I’m really grateful to have the chance to foster the next generation of Valorant. Jon’s parents’ teachings really did a number on him in terms of progressiveness, he’s still instinctually calling out microaggressions and the like which is a real problem but he’s a great kid and I know he’s gonna be shouting slurs like the best of them in no time,” said Marks

Straiham starts his training soon and is looking forward to the experience.

“We’re gonna start with the basics, Homophobia and Misogyny 101 before moving on to more advanced things like Alt-Right stuff. I’m pretty excited, Noah is one of the greatest of all time, and to be learning how to scream slurs from the guy who went on a 13-minute anti-Semitic tirade against his own team after he got killed rushing the enemy by himself is a dream come true,” said Straiham

At press time, Straiham is currently reading through hundreds of 4chan gaming forum posts and youtube comments to learn as many slurs as possible.

Hi everyone,

Time for more balancing! The last 2 patches brought us closer, but there are still things to do.

For Ranger, Reaper and Berserker we now even out the subclasses, mostly by buffing the weaker ones.

Review Bombing? This Bad Game Is Getting Bad Reviews

Posted on March 29, 2024 by Charles Bill

Another shameful display by gamers today as they collectively review bombed Cat’s Cradle 3, a terrible game.

“I just don’t understand it,” said lead Cat’s Cradle 3 developer Tom Pontius. “All we want to do is develop and release underbaked and uninteresting games, and then gamers jump on us out of nowhere with negative reviews just because our game sucks. What gives these gamers the right to provide negative feedback if our product is incomplete? The worst part is our game isn’t woke at all, so we can’t even blame it on those types of gamers.”

Despite committing heinous crimes against game developers, one review bombing terrorist came out of the shadows to give their side of the story.

“I just don’t like the game,” explained insatiable gamer troglodyte Jenna Luzio. “I paid sixty bucks for this thing and it ends up running horribly on my PC. Then I have to walk everywhere because fast travel is only included as DLC. I don’t want to pay more money to play the game I already paid for! So I left a scathing review, hopefully no one else buys this game and makes the same mistake I did, [because I am part of an insidious conspiracy working against game companies to ruin their sales by review bombing].”

Review bombing is not a new thing, masses coming together to inappropriately slander a subpar piece of media has existed since time immemorial.

“Shakespeare once wrote an atrocious play,” explained historian of criticism Pat Quince. “Instead of doing the polite thing, and pretending it was great, the evil patrons of the Globe review bombed the play by telling their friends it was bad. Seeing this pattern continue over time and still be an institutional ill of our society is very distressing to me. It reminds me of how gamers in the 80s review bombed the ET video game and forced them to bury it in a landfill. I don’t see why consumers have to say when they don’t like a product, it’s frankly disrespectful and immature.”

At press time another innocent developer tragically fell prey to the review bombing gamer mob after releasing a AAA title with recycled assets and outdated gameplay.

Ranking Minecraft’s Wood Types as if It’s Not Obvious That Dark Oak Is #1

Posted on March 29, 2024 by Cameron Abernathy

Well, here we are. You, drool-covered and slack-jawed thousands of posts deep into a twitter session so deeply uninteresting that it borders on self-harm. Me, metaphorically chained to my radiator begging you to look away while I pass the key that I swallowed. But that’s the deal, isn’t it? I provide you with your content slop and you… I don’t really know what you do.

You’ve played Minecraft, so the upcoming rank order of wood types should be painfully obvious, but we’re still going to do it. If you didn’t already read the title, let me save you time: Dark Oak is #1. Here we go, I guess.

#10: Jungle

Here you go: a spot on the list confirming your already-held belief that Jungle wood is the worst of the bunch. I mean, just look at it: It’s a vomit-inducing orange. Are you happy now? Did you forget about the fast food bags strewn around the floor of your apartment for a moment? Good. Now you can post a screenshot of this to twitter and win an argument with a bot.

#9: Acacia

Can you even pronounce this one? Be serious. Either way, this one sucks and you already knew that and this whole exercise is pointless because it’s so obvious which ones are good and which are bad. Look at that picture – that’s someone trying their hardest to make Acacia work. Kind of like how hard your parents are trying to get you to work. How’s that going?

#8: Birch

Birch is a light-colored wood that only works in pretty rare situations. For the most part, the darker woods have an easier time matching with a wider range of colors. That’s why Dark Oak is going to be #1. You know this. You knew this. Are you happy that your beliefs were confirmed? Does that give you some sense of superiority? Righteousness? What do you even want from me, anymore?

#7: Oak

My psychiatrist called today and they said they’re going to up my dose. A lot of that is honestly your fault. Reckon with that. Sit with it.

#6: Warped Hyphae

Are you even reading these?

#5: Crimson Hyphae

Seriously: what does it matter to you that the red nether wood got placed above the blue one? What value did this provide you, other than confirming what you already know? This stuff is objective. The woods that are higher up get used more effectively than the lower woods. The fact that there’s a compulsion within you so desperate for endorsement should be cause for self-reflection, not reason to rub your Pocky-greased fingers over another screen.

#4: Mangrove

It’s red, but slightly deeper and muted. Therefore, it goes with a lot more blocks and can act as both an accent and a background. There’s a depth to its coloration that isn’t quite present in the previous woods.

#3: Cherry

It’s a great colored off-white in a game with very little opportunity to play with pastels. You… God, you already know this. Comment how much you agree and I won’t read it.

#2: Spruce

You made it. You managed to waste another five minutes of your life. The website’s ranking of woods in Minecraft matches your opinions, so now you feel good. Turn your phone’s flashlight on and point it at your hands. Why is there dirt under your fingernails? You haven’t gone outside in days. Are your pets fed? Is the water bill paid?

#1: Dark Oak

I already told you this was going to happen. You knew this would be here. The fact that you’re reading this is a sign of something deep and sinister within you. A social worker will be at your home shortly.

Boogie2988 Confirms Girlfriend Technically Old Enough to Join His Steam Family

Posted on March 28, 2024 by Hard Drive Reporter

49-year-old famous YouTuber Boogie2988 announced today that despite public criticism implying the contrary, his girlfriend is technically old enough to join his Steam Family, sources still feeling generally uneasy about the situation confirmed.

“In most states you can share games with anyone over the age of 16 – but she’s already 21,” Boogie said online, a few weeks before his girlfriend’s 21st birthday. “Steam family sharing and any potential IRL couch co-op is completely legal.”

Online commenters said although the relationship was likely in line with local laws and Steam’s code of conduct, it made them a little uncomfortable nonetheless.

“What do a 21-year-old and 49-year-old have in common? What do they talk about?” one online commenter who goes by DanTheMan91, said. “On the other hand the dude has a ton of games. Can I join his steam family too?”

Debra Hessinger, head of Standard’s psychology department, says that the traditional nuclear Steam family is changing.

“It used to be that a man and a woman had one collection of games, which they shared with their children,” she said. “Now it seems older men prefer to share games with women who recently were – but technically no longer are – children. Completely legal, but a fascinating sociological change which should be studied.”

At press time, the Cut was preparing an op-ed from a young woman arguing the merits of joining an older man’s Steam family.

20 Completely Useless Things You Could Buy for the Cost of All the Dragon’s Dogma 2 Microtransactions

Posted on March 28, 2024 by Dan Saxotweet

To buy the complete set of microtransactions for Dragon’s Dogma 2 you will have to spend $41.79 of your hard earned dollars. Since you can unlock all of these in the game anyway, why not consider 20 different completely useless things to confuse your loved ones with when you die?

Let’s see what we can buy with the money instead.

A Bunch of 62 Overripe Bananas

At 67 cents each, you could bulk buy 62 bananas and give yourself a potassium overdose whilst trying to justify the purchase. Once eaten, you will have a once in a lifetime opportunity to terrorize a go kart track with the skins.

5 Blue Ticks For A Month

For 31 days you will be the king of the forever sinking ship that is X, with 5 different accounts able to spam MICROTRANSACTIONS IN BIO in the replies of your favorite tweets. Until Elon inevitably changes how it all works again.

Approximately £33.08

Nobody is quite sure what is happening in Britain, least of all the people who live there. If you exchanged your dollars for pounds the value would probably crash due to a scandal involving Earl Crumpet or something. The money you receive probably doesn’t even have the right monarch’s face on it. But this is how much you’d get.

A Dune 2 Popcorn Bucket (Used)

Thanks a lot, internet, your constant jokes that the Dune 2 popcorn bucket looks like a sex toy meant that loads of cinemas sold out of them. Now they are only available second hand at an extortionate rate, so using the plastic Shai-Hulud mouth as a fleshlight comes with even more health risks than usual.

2 Custom Name ‘Sophronia’ Baby Blankets

Apparently Sophronia is one of the rarest baby names in America, with less than 5 girls being born into that name in 2022. Why not hedge your bets on meeting 2 of them and giving them a blanket each?

Horse Armour on 16 Copies of Oblivion

Remember the original single player DLC fiasco? We do. The least those virtual long-dicked pricks could do would be to look grateful for their gold armor plating, but no, the landscape of gaming was made worse forever in order to give them protection from mudcrabs and they can’t even crack a smile.

“Mamas For DeSantis” T Shirt and Ron Desantis Golf Balls

Treat your Mom to a shirt commemorating the best presidential campaign we never had, and wow your Dad with two whole golf balls. With no money left over for mailing costs, this is an absolute steal!

Almost 2 Ouyas

Have you ever wanted to own a gray box that was at best a once-fun idea but now has no official servers or even a company attached to it? If you really put your mind to it you can get it connected in some sort of capacity, so knock yourself out if you really really want to play Amazing Frog the way it’s meant to be played.

A Maximum Of 4179 Wishes

Convert your dollars into pennies and head down to your local wishing well to bombard it with 4179 pieces of zinc! Use them wisely to wish for this cycle of video game discourse to never come up again.

8 Copies Of A 2020 Cat Calendar

Relive everyone’s favorite year over and over again! Remember the day everyone had to stay inside? It’s okay, these cats exist in a permanently frozen point in time where the generation-defining traumas are as unknown a concept to them as a day without pettings and cuddles!

36 Live Oysters

You don’t need 36 live oysters. You don’t have the capability to eat 36 live oysters. You don’t have the capacity to keep 36 live oysters refrigerated. Your mother was wrong – you are not capable of doing anything you put your mind to, because you are not capable of handling 36 live oysters. Stop thinking about the oysters.

3 Used Copies of Oysters: Recipes That Bring Home A Taste Of The Sea

What did I just tell you?

4 Copies of Dragon’s Dogma on PS3

If you were planning to buy every single microtransaction in Dragon’s Dogma 2, it is a reasonable assumption that you have played the original. But should you have 4 friends who want in on the action, why not give them a copy each? If you buy it new, you get to play the demo of the highly-anticipated Resident Evil 6 too!

Approximately £31.95

Ah, I did warn you, the value of the pound dropped again while you were reading this article, but in fairness nobody expected Earl Crumpet to be a notorious international animal kidnapper.

Vivek 2024 “Protect The Homeland First” Long Sleeve T-Shirt

The campaign shop of Vivek Ramaswamy’s 2024 election bid is a fascinating and disturbing place, and should be used as a historic document for ‘the first Republican primary where the candidates had access to ChatGPT’. Buy this shirt to let everyone know you are either someone with interesting political priorities or someone who goes down rabbit holes when researching satirical articles.

10% Of A Bored Ape

Turns out it is very difficult to just find ‘a website that sells those NFT Apes’ online, as any page just looks like a crappy Dark Web for babies. However, I think that $41.76 would buy you a tenth of a Bored Ape, which is even more useless than it was back when it was useless 2 years ago

4 ‘Worlds Greatest Dad’ Mugs

Buying 4 of these would either make it seem like you are overdoing it for one dad, or being incredibly disingenuous to four dads.

Approximately £41.76

It turns out that Earl Crumpet had captured the last remaining Northern Sportive Lemurs in the world and sold them back for billions, completely turning the UK’s economy around as well as your financial prospects. Well done Crumpet, I hope your prison cell is comfy.

Gifting The Complete Set of Dragon’s Dogma 2 Microtransaction To Someone On Reddit

They would probably try and kill you.

8 Lots Of The Hard Drive Patreon

Please. It’s only $5 a month for the lowest tier, and what would make for a better gift for your extended family then being able to support the kind of content that 100 years ago would have led to its writers being institutionalised.
