So, when I absent-mindedly glanced at the thumbnail, I thought it kind of looked like Chinese characters for a second. That made me curious, so I looked up if there was a Chinese version of the theme, and, yeah, man. That's exactly what I wanted.

I'd say "imagine if that was actually what I wrote," but it looks like you went ahead and did that for me. ❤️

God bless my poor folks who regret their Harry Potter tattoo because they're trans. You have my condolences. 😔

I like to go to my gay room and just kind of sit and stare at the wall and think about stuff. It doesn't accomplish anything.

Can't wait until they give up on this gimmick and we can go back to connecting over WON. Any day now.

Having a thing for glasses means having to decide between not wanting them to come off in the first place, or being blurry enough to possibly be confused for an attractive person. It's a tough call.

Absolver. It was the precursor to Sifu, but with slightly slower and more methodical combat (more like a Soulslike, almost).

The coolest part of it is, as you play and fight players and NPCs, your character will slowly learn and unlock the moves that are used against them, which you can then put into your moveset and chain together with other moves to create your own style. If you don't want to do that, you can join a player-run school, and be given the fighting style of that school's master, which your character will learn as they use it.

The story mode is pretty short. It's mainly about PvP (although, before development stopped, it DID get a free DLC with a co-op dungeon run that's worth killing a couple of hours on). Of course, a PvP-focused game with nobody playing it isn't exactly the most entertaining thing to spend your time on, so- outside of a small collection of diehards- it pretty much stays a ghost town.

It had heart, it had ambition, and it had creativity. My friends and I were really hoping the success of Sifu would mean people might start going back and maybe breathing a little life into it, but that didn't happen. We hoped maybe they'd announce a second one, but that hasn't happened yet, either. It'll probably just be another Sifu. That one was a proven success, so it makes more sense.

The servers are still up for now. No idea how much longer it'll be supported. But, if you've got friends you can play it with, it might be worth looking into and seeing for yourself what the game offered, and what could've been.

Not exactly a very comprehensive guide. I was hoping for something more concrete, so this is kind of a let-down. I feel like I could really use some tips to improve my technique.

Good theories. Honestly, I don't totally think it is in reference to the Klan dude, but it sure is an unfortunate coincidence

Wikipedia seems to disagree. I believe you may be thinking of when he took political office, not when he started as Grand Wizard of the Idiot Brigade.

Don't forget the rather unfortunate usage of a bunch of people cruising around in the Confederate car all being named "Duke."

See, there was once a man named David, who was the leader of a wacky little group of goofballs back in the '70s. That li'l jokester even went so far as to get everyone to call him a grand wizard, which is such a zany thing to ask people to do, but people totally did it with a straight face

Anyway, I wonder if it's a coincidence. Who knows?
