I get that this is likely a joke topic, but what are you defending?
Pedophilia? Alcoholism? ESPN glamorizing poker and convincing college
kids that dropping out and pouring their money into what is usually a
losing cause being a good thing? I find all of those things ridiculous
and indefensible; my apologies if my values are different from yours =/
One
does not simply defend pedophilia. Alcoholism... well I don't even see
the relevance of it in this topic. Even if Kuge admitted to being an
alcoholic, it may easily have been in jest (if every college student
who drank frequently was an alcoholic, then... there would be A LOT
more alcoholics in the world (sorry, couldn't come up with anything
witty). As for poker, you're way off in the parking lot behind left
field. If college kids think they can drop out and make a living
playing poker, it's their own ****ing fault if they fail. If they play
for the sole sake of money, they're morons anyway. The REAL poker
players, profession or amateur, good or bad, high-stakes or free games
only, play because they enjoy the game. That's me for one. I can afford
to play money games (cheap ones at least) but I don't. I play for the
sake of playing, because I ****ing love to play. Anyone who considers
themselves "professional" or anywhere near would say the same thing.
You've shown me wisdom in the past, Ulti, but you're showing me ****ing
ignorance right now...
