It starts off innocently enough as a nice little baseball minigame, but soon spirals out of control. No, it’s not doing creepypasta shit, but it’s just the difficulty ramps up. IT RAMPS UP HARD. It starts off with just introducing curve balls and stuff like that, but then people start cheating. For instance, Tigger can do physics-obliterating zig-zag balls, and the owl’s ones would disappear in mid-air. It was severely difficult, and when 4chan’s /v/ got a hold of this, any incredulousness towards the game soon evaporated. I guarantee that any little kids back in the day probably gave up quickly, but the people from /v/, battlehardened from Dark Souls, Touhou, Wario Ware and all sorts of reflex-driven games, took it upon themselves to try and beat it.
But then people from /v/ perservered and managed to push on and finally take on the final pitcher - Christopher Robin.
And they discovered the true depths of hell.
See, Chris is a cheating motherfucker. There is no other way to describe him. He took notes from every other pitcher (Or devoured all their souls to gain their power, depending on how memey you want to go with this), and can use every one of the tricks that the other pitchers can.
AND HE CAN COMBINE THEM.
This resulted in stuff like dissappearing zigzag balls and speed-changing screwballs. It was borderline impossible to beat him.
I should stress: The people playing this were from /v/. There were men who could go toe-to-toe with Gwyn with no armour and come out on top. There were some who could take on Remillia Scarlet and escape without a hit. There were people who could get through Oblivion with never levelling up.
And they almost all fell against this child and his celestial pitching arm.
And the memes began to flow.
I’ve played it myself, and got up to 6.
I don’t think I have the words to express how much I want to kick a nocturnal bird up the arse.
I have no idea what I say in half of my let’s plays. I even tried to say this afterwards and couldn’t repeat myself that fast. Someone record a video of you saying this 5 times fast.
Okay so @q2qcomics and I are currently apartment hunting for the fall and I just stumbled upon the weirdest apartment ever.
Like at first, wow this looks nice:
How can it be only $650/mo?? Something’s gotta be wrong with it.
… And then you find the floorplan:
Like… WTF is this place? And you realize it’s on bottom of three “apartment units” (Clearly this was meant to be one big place).
This is your enterance:
Have fun living in the maintenance hallway under the rich folks.
It comes with such stunning features as:
Creepy ass long murder hallways.
A room with many doors (all closets).
A bathroom that’s clearly just meant for storage.
And whatever this thing is in your kitchen.
I hope you like wine, A LOT.
this. this is a video game apartment. be wary of lurking assassins. any stray chests probably contain loose gold or weapons
honestly I’d totally live in this amateur counter strike mapper’s first map
I don’t give a shit that the bathroom is in another timezone its cheaper than anything around here
This is literally the first level of Hitman 2
What the fuck
what does it all mean
I would totally live in this place and I’d put a poster of a creepy ass clown on the bedroom door at the end of the that hallway and rig the light above it to flicker.
