Greetings my fellow liquidators,

I've recently noticed a decline in quality introductory blogs. Since they are always guaranteed at least 3 to 5 stars, I thought why not? Since I am over a year old member and with all these new SC2 nubs friends joining TL, some people have got to find my blog interesting (theoretically... I think).

This is only my 2nd thread I have ever created, while the first being one asking how to beat protoss with zerg back when I first started (God, ICCUP haunted my dreams back then). As my life has finally turned an interesting page, I feel this is a good time to start a blog, with the first one being a fucking book of text. And by a fucking book I mean a book you would fuck cause my text is so pleasurable to read.

And if for some strange, most likely gay, reason, you do not find my text pleasurable, I've taken the liberty of using the very cheap tactic of putting links to images of beautiful women very well hidden in this post to promote readership.

So without any further hormone blue balling fulled delay...

hydra's introduction:

+ Show Spoiler +

"What it be homes, thug life 4 real!" That would have been my introduction had I not been born into a standard Chinese family who would have beaten my ass bamboo red for using such gangsta bad lingo. I am going to be finally turning 20 in a week while on a internship in Shanghai so wish my happy birthday by sending me bacon and money or bacon scented money.

By now if you had not already, noticed my nickname is just bad. Lone Hydra was the only "cool" BW name that had the same initials as my real Chinese name. And in my defense, the name was so good, at least two progamers have named themselves after me and now pay me lavish royalties and star girl sacrifices [citation needed]. I also could make sexual BW related pick up lines revolving around "my hydra busting through your gateway" and etc.

I have been playing BW for 4 years, 2.5 of which only involved FFAs with 5 thousand minerals stored up turtle style till the game ended when someone got a gazillion carriers. Good times.

Found TL through SC2GG which I found through violetak which I found by searching for the sexiness that once was (T)FBH on youtube. I forgot why I'd even want to search for a skinny Korean who ran around naked and groin thrusts at any opportunity. Quite frankly, I don't want to remember.

I am in my 3rd year of my BBA program, and I'm always happy to gloat about it and share my knowledge on useless BBA tidbits to welcoming ears. In fact, I don't even care if your ears aren't welcoming, I'm just gonna jam it in very hard, if you catch my drift. And I hope you do catch it, or you may wrongly accuse me of sexual misconduct. wink wink*


glorious TL life full of awesome sauce and other good awesome shit with awesome cherry all on top, fuck yeah:

+ Show Spoiler +
I might have slightly exaggerated on the exact amount of awesome. But only slightly. Besides, does anyone even know what the fuck awesome sauce is? If some guy tried to sell me his "awesome sauce" I'd call the police reporting a drug dealer and possible rapist.

Anyways... I was going to do all this during my 1337 post but a couple of amateur pubescent nubs dared to start threads badmouthing the great (P)Dragon King so I had to step in. It was a moment of great self sacrifice for the greater good.I'm a Taek-Bang fanboy to the death.

Started following pro BW during an era where (Z)sAviOr was (T)FBH and (P)Bisu's bitch. As a result, i never cared for (Z)sAviOr and loved those other 2. Through that pure love, I discovered the beast that is (P)Stork. The rest of my favoritism goes by toss-zerg-terran with very few exceptions. I was once a zerg player but after seeing an era of zerg hydra bust gayness and timid terran+ Show Spoiler +

turtles destroy protoss, I switched since I always take the most challenging role in video games. Unfortunately, I soon discovered the weak protoss image I had created does not hold true in low tier ICCUP matches.

I was banned for a week once on TL. I valiantly fought for the rights of insects worldwide to be acknowledged equally as animals but the ruthless dictator only known as Kennigit struck and shut down my protests for fairness. I also might have called someone out for political correctness douchebaggery, who knows.

I stopped visiting TL for a bit for 5 reasons. (P)Stork slumping, (P)Bisu slumping hard, (T)FBH hit rock bottom, I got temp banned, and I discovered HONwith some friends. Yeah, I once played video games with real friends! ENVY ME!!!

But now I came back to witness a new season with a clean slate. I am not disappointed in my revolutionist and commander. It's kinda(P)Bisu funny how Bisu's nick is revolutionist, and (P)Stork's nick commander, refers to dictator, army/government/establishment leader. Like they are destined rivals or some shit.


where you at now hydra?:

+ Show Spoiler +
In your mom's bed busting my lone hydra through her gateway! GG NO RE! No seriously though, I'm sure your mom has gosu probe scout micro and will add cannons as needed to deal with a lone hydra.

Even more seriously though, I'm up in Shanghai doing a internship with GM for 6 months to take a "break" from 3rd year university studies and get + Show Spoiler +

some work experience. It sounds like I'm bragging till you realize I get paid 100 RMB a day. Which means I earn just more than my food costs. More funny though, even though I'm ethically Chinese, by growing up in Canada and States, I am functionally illiterate in Mandarin. I get by verbally and some crazy ass body language. This experience will be the focus of my blog.

I'm trying to find some video games to play here to pass the time in the winter nights, cause going out is painstakingly cold and expensive, but everything is either blocked, can't read the Chinese, or the download speed or lag is too shitty. Recommend games please cause I am using all my weekday nights studying economics. ECONOMICS. ARRRGH. Macro and micro sounded so much fun when I bought the books. DAMN YOU BW!


where to get my autograph for your loved ones:

+ Show Spoiler +
If you live around Shanghai give me a shot out and maybe we'll hang out some time or other shit people in Shanghai do. Besides reading and writing Chinese, cause I can't do that... yet.

"Aww... is lone hydra lonely?" I am on the other side of the planet from my family and friends. What do you think? I am the youngest in my company by far. All other interns at least have their masters. So meeting people my age is hard working a regular job with language barriers. And many of the girls here look deceivingly a lot younger than what they actually are.

Sounds like a blessing till you realize that cute 20 year oldish chick is like mid 30 thirties and that Junior high school looking chick is 20 but you can't talk to her cause you fear she might actually be like 14 and the police deport you for being a pedo. And I also happen to look older cause I'm freakishly tall compared to the average height here and not as bone skinny as the average person. I'm like the fucking HULK, without the steroids.

2 pics constitute the term multiple pictures, and you know working for it made it so much hotter, don't lie

all images shamelessly stolen from sites found on google images, I'm not making money off of this... yet
