    e. in the future flagpole is one and two words and the word shoots has disappeared altogether.

    And people who edit things aren't watching Fringe at the same time.

    I had a friend who was a semi-professional Halo guy. I'm not that into FPSes, but I had the chance to watch him play on one occassion.

    It was quite ridiculous. He would be skimming along the battle, he'd notice someone 300 meters away, then he'd jump, zoom in the scope, and jam the joystick all in one motion. He got a headshot doing this almost every single time.

    I do not understand people who can play with such an absurdly high sensitivity that they are able to line up a headshot taht fast, much less able to keep the reticule on the head while firing at the speed they go.

    I'd like those "zones" you sign up for on Xbox Live to actually do something

    I don't think they actually do anything

    I'm in the "Recreation" zone but whenever I play a Halo or CoD they are like level 50 or 255th prestige

    That's not Recreation zone type behavior!

    "it's almost nine o'clock", in bold? that's kind of a lame punchline. I bet it was written by a bunch of old people over 30 who have jobs.

    but seriously, who plays FPS games with a joystick? fucking kids these days

    Actually, that relies on a glitch in the game. If you strafe the scope quickly over someone, it'll automatically give you a headshot. Still takes practice to pull it off, but it's not godly super-human skill. Just mad 'sploits.

    Last night Usagi, myself and two of my friends were playing MNC.

    It hit 10:30 and we were all "Man, alright...that was my last one."

    This comic is both funny AND relevant.
