Hell yeah, fixed it in one

First answer to me is Chris Christodoulou, who did everything for Risk of Rain and Risk of Rain 2. The man knows how to let ambient vibes build to boss music

From what I can tell, it’s a juxtaposition thing. Many of the other shooters used in memes have stances that appear outlandish, and have gear that looks a little strange, almost trending towards ridiculous. The man you’re referencing, Yusuf looks incredibly casual in comparison. His stance is at least recognizable as a shooting stance (even if it’s almost appears too casual), his hand is in his pocket, and he isn’t visibly using any of the gear that many other shooters are.

I haven’t kept track very closely outside of the memes, so I can’t comment on Yusuf’s performance in comparison to the others, but the memes paint his character to be someone that gets the task done with minimal resources, where the others are given the role of a “tryhard” for the sake of the meme.

Evidently the imagery of these competitive shooters resonated with enough people that Lemmy had a small breakdown, but I always love to see my Lemmy feed trend into one topic for an evening or two. We all remember the beef stroganoff incident.

God damn is that an iRiver?

I’m a little out of the loop on webp. What makes it problematic?

Thanks for posting these! Genuinely cool to see

Or just people watching as groups come and go through the main gates.

“Was that guy called ‘Bilbo Swaggins?’”

I’m JUST thinking about Silicon Valley now.
