  • Wanted to like it

    Listened to my first show and they kept bringing up race on everything. Being racist is bad, but constantly calling people racist is also bad. Just treat everyone the same and don’t virtue signal.

HSM 167: Linchpin Jim, Two Fabios, and Moving Sucks
Q: How would you have reacted in this situation?
In the face of poor gameplay, the feeling of saltiness may arise, leading one to either tolerate it for the sake of gaming or lash out.
HSM 145: Smothering Deja Vu, 1v1 Dealbreaker, and Warcraft 3
Q: Should I have divulged the whole strategy to the Hackball player when I made the deal, giving him the full picture?
No, you're not responsible for providing every detail of your strategy when making deals.
HSM 131: Middle School Salt and Roping with Amy the Amazonian!
Q: How did you get into Magic?
I learned the basics from my cousin in 2003 but started playing seriously in 2009 in college with friends.
HSM 131: Middle School Salt and Roping with Amy the Amazonian!
Q: What gets you salty?
Salty when players won't kill me, especially when I'm helpless and just waiting for them to deal the final blow.
HSM 123: Upholding Priorities and Dumb Plays with Goldsabertooth!
Q: What makes you salty about magic?
I do feel like I get targeted in magic. I think I have an arch, and maybe that's why I'm such a people pleaser.
