    shooters as a whole haven't appealed to me much beyond Tuftoo and occasionally planetside

    which are, in my opinion, designed for the PC from the ground up

    titanfall isn't

    I'm not trying to be dense

    But why do you say that

    Like architecture wise it was, because the XBONE is x86

    do you mean

    controls? or what

    the way TF2's multiplayer architecture and, say, call of duty or battlefield's multiplayer architecture feel different isn't exactly something I know how to put into words

    but I do feel like they have different approaches

    Battlefield explicitly WAS built for PC, at least in the early iterations

    so now I'm just confused

    I'm not saying those things don't have different approaches but I don't understand what your "PC" and "Console" labels mean

    also you may have noticed that I said that I can't articulate it well!

    it's just a gut reaction

    Fair enough

    I've been playing both forever and don't really see a difference

    But I'm also that dude who plays multiplayer PC shooters with a 360 controller so maybe I'm not the guy to ask

    Listening to the podcast right now. I wish Drew wasn't so touchy/in denial about being a Millenial. OWN it man! Despite what newstand magazines and dumb people say, it's not an actual badge of shame or anything. Yeesh.

    No it's not a badge of shame.

    Having a nice shorthand for grumpy old assholes to call you by is still p annoying.

    Acceptable. Granny Smiths are too goddamn sour. Apples are sweet and delicious dammit

    We have jazz apples in Louisiana. Not sure where else you can get them.
    Sweet, super crunchy, never gritty, perfect size.

    For me, I think my youthful grumpiness towards baby boomers makes it fair. (muwahaha) .

    And my only thought for Gen X'ers is "XTREEEEEEEEEEEEMEEEEE" and giggling, so... yeah.

    Lovely on

    You know, I think I'm in the mood for a banana, but I wish it would taste more like a pepperoni stick.

    every so often, i go to maternity wards and slap as many display babies as i can before someone chases me out

    so when young people get uppity, i can take solace in the chance that they were the ones who got a taste of my palm fury before they could open their eyes

    Better example would probably be UT3 versus previous UT's, where they had to make design choices so the game to run on both, but by doing so it never really felt like a natural fit on either.

    I like granny Smith's the most because I make a killer caramel dip, and they are the best variety for that.

    Banana's are good, but artificial banana flavoring is the worst. Like, the Willy Wonka Runts candies are great, but if I get a banana one I could almost see myself barfing.

    I agree.

    Artificial banana flavor is based off the flavor of the Gros Micheal which went extinct decades ago.

    I've had those once before. I actually found them kinda disapointing. Just kinda tasted like a regular apple to me.

    @Maximum Totally agree about artificial banana flavoring. It makes me ANGRY to get something in that flavor. Especially a problem since I like lemon flavored candy and fake-banana sneaks in sometimes. Curse you fake-banana-flavor!

    I'd say it's the same as being called a "baby boomer". Good and bad.

    Also potatoes are pommes de terre which is literally APPLE OF THE EARTH which I find hilarious

    Seafood is fruits de mer which is FRUIT OF THE SEA
