i didnt even have to click the links to laugh
ughh
in an attempt to lower the general autism level of the thread,
who’s going to NCR for sure? i’m gonna be in seattle until may 27th, then coming back to berkeley from about may 28th-june 15th, at which point i’ll be moving back to seattle permanently. need to know how rides and shiet will work.
also, to avoid any further passive aggression, DKL, shut the fucking hell up. quit shitting up the thread, nobody cares about your tired fucking internet memes, take that shit elsewhere.
good
Save us, Doctor Octopus.
When is NCR, anyway? Fuck.
My apologies.
Given the general momentum of the thread (invitations of fellatio and creepy sexual harassment/advances going out left and right, scaring possibly all of the prospective newcomers away), I was under the impression that what you guys mostly did was dick around in here and that new people were welcomed to do the same; given the somewhat hostile environment (where, again, explicit advances of rape were made), I was under the impression that the best way to shed my newness was to just jump in the fire…
But, if y’all wanna play it all serious and straight, then that’s fine; I just wish that that was a little more clear…
It really doesn’t help when the opening post talks about being brought into a “circle jerk of gay”.
quick question do you know what the bearcade is
there’s a mountain of difference between people who know each other that are joking around and some random ass dude who decides to come in out of nowhere acting like he’s suddenly “in” on everything. as retarded as most of the content on this thread may appear to you, we use this thread as a way to keep in touch with each other, for those that are already graduated, and those that are still going to school here. this isn’t fucking 4chan, all the weird/homoerotic shit is just people keeping the thread rolling. we actually hang out with each other in real life from time to time, we aren’t just craigslist personals for street fighter; you lack context for the “weirdness” you’re seeing.
i feel like a dick even saying any of this, I’ve barely known these guys for a year now, i don’t consider myself in on any of this shit, i have less context than anyone, i just hang out with them when i can and play some god damn videogames.
edit: also, on the topic of newcomers, i was/am a newcomer, i see the same things you see in this thread, how do you think i get by? here’s a hint: there are no urls involved.
and yes, I don’t even understand what that means.
I’m probably not gonna enter NCR, but I may stop by if I’m free since it’s close by San Jose. I’m either gonna be home for family’s graduation(s) or moving my shit out of Berkeley that weekend.
Also: Wish I got paid like Ahmed will. Fuckin CS majors and their better rational career choice lmao
double posting for finals week
Look at it like this.
Bearcade is an elaborate inside joke. If you’re on the outside of that joke, trying too hard just makes you look stupid. Just be patient and eventually you might get it.
man i get REALLY salty when i lose online… i think it’s just something about not being able to talk to the guy next to me and joking around or something. sorry ahmed
in conclusion online play is literally unhealthy for you, who wants to play on thursday after 10pm
Nothing beats losing to online flowchart Ken and getting his win quote 'the strongest fighter wins. ITS AS EASY AS READING A FLOWCHART" AHHAHAHAH MY LIFE IS BAD
I still don’t really get it and I’ve probably been here longer than anyone who posts in this thread.
Especially because Post-LB Bearcade traded the haterade in for gay-torade.

Yeah, I didn’t know my place. There ain’t no excuse: I’m sorry.
In fact, I will further apologize to people in the thread who may have inadvertently become mentally impaired due to my constant stream of stupid over the last few… however long it might be that this has been going on.
I was born in the US, but I grew up in the Philippines (so I sort of look like a Latino kid? but from Asia (not a terribly outlandish claim given that the Spanish pretty much owned the country for 300 years before the Americans did)) and have only been back in the US for the past 5 years.
That aside, I have a vague idea of what the Bearcade might be, despite not having been here long enough to actually know about it:
It was some arcade that was located on the UC Berkeley campus (where the Naia lounge is?), but was closed, which is probably not completely unexpected given how the arcade scene in the US has been crushed by the advent of console and online gaming?
(in contrast to, say, Japan, where the arcade scene is still fairly strong, probably owing to the fact that the population density is way larger than the US?s: everyone is within a train-ride of each other)
If I were to take a guess, the majority of you guys know each other from days way back when the arcade was still going on in full force and have pretty much stayed in contact primarily through the use of this forum.
Assuming that I?m not barred from further proceedings, I would like to be in on this? you can even use me as a practice dummy.
I mean, it?s that or I head out to Blake?s, go dancing and look like a tool.
That aside, I do use a mike when I?m on X-Box live and the experience of online voice chat is cool so long as you?re playing with friends (in my case: people from Canada or other states).
While a knee-jerk reaction of mine would be to assume that this is funny because of how awkward the production and style is, I kinda have to take a step back when, upon further contemplation, I realize that the game hasn?t actually left that 80s/90s design sensibility…
Just look at the horrible cut scenes you get at the end of Arcade mode.
hahaha i think i’m the only one who wasn’t pissed at dkl. i like him even more now, i’ll even accept his friend request!

anyone willing to get on their knees for me is cool in my book.
