I've never told this story before, but felt enough time has passed that the events won't have been remembered by anyone from MLG Dallas.
This year I attended MLG Dallas with one goal in mind, piss off Liquid`Tyler. I had seen in a recent state of the game at the time that Tyler hates people who give handshakes with no muscle. I knew I had to replicate his worst nightmare at MLG by plaguing him with the worst girly handshake I could muster.
Anyways, when I finally got to MLG with my friend, we made it our goal to find noony. Within minutes of getting in, I saw him. We rushed over to where he and Incontrol were greeting fans, and in the most awkward of fashions I approached him without a word and just stuck out my hand. He relectunatly grabbed it but I didn't grab back, I just let it sit in his hand while he gave me this look of disgust. It was pure satisfaction. Then I stood there for five minutes by them while they talked to other people, and he would not stop staring at me like I had down syndrome. The end.

Pretty random story O.o
If you really wanted to give a girly handshake, you should have just let your hand hang limp, and looked all dainty.
On a side note, I don't get why you'd want to get nony to dislike you. Mission accomplished, I guess. :p

If you didn't giggle, you didn't succeed.

Maybe you just can't comprehend how funny and awkward it was, but I assure you it was well worth it.

This. Soooooooo much.

Oh i'm sorry - you really are a jerk.. but damn, i'd be a liar if i denied cracking up over this one. Excellently written, so awkward - second hand embarrassment almost reaches edwardstarcraft levels!
|
OMG I fuckin hate this. its funny because one of the tips for interviews is that you give a firm handshake. I had this interview where the interviewER gave me the limp fish handshake. and she even presented her hand palm down like a princess. and i was like WTF AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS. RAGEEEE. /rant

So after you "have fun", did you apologize?

No, couldn't look him in the eyes the rest of the weekend ^^"
Just avoided him after that

This sounds like one of those stories that sounds great in your head.
Then when you write it out and people read it, they are in disgust of you.
|
i award you one internets. congratulations.
|
Hahahaha fucking awesome haha should have masturbated before doing that tho
|
I'm sorry but this is fucking hilarious, I was tempted to ask for his autograph at MLG Dallas but he looked like he didn't want to be bothered. Probably the OPs fault.
|
I laughed at that, but i also hate people who give out wimpy hand shakes but hwy would you wanna make him angry?

I'm trying to understand, but I can't...

Rofl, I love it. Good OP :D
|
Bookmarking this thread so I can check back when/if Tyler makes a reply
|
Yeah, I'd love it if he came in and posts how he saw it from his side, lol.
|
Incontrol should have showed his "handshake". You'd be here crying because you have no arm.
|
I actually am laughing so hard at work right now. Trying not to but I can't.
@ all the people hating on OP, it's not like he really wanted to make Tyler *mad* per se, just troll him in a funny and awkward way.
|
sounds kinda strange... I mean it wasn't malicious so it doesn't sound that bad to me... just sounds like a really strange thing to do...
|
Tell us more of your idiotic adventures.

I personally thought that this was great

First reply in this thread is not very constructive. Why is he an idiot? He just having fun doing some IRL trolling. come on put some more effort into your post, the op did a pretty decent job.
Imagine if he had a video to go along I bet it would be different.
|
The truth is that this guy was a huge Tyler fan, his one chance he gets to meet Tyler he does the most girly weak ass handshake he ever could have imagined. He is horrified by what occurred on that day and finally writes about it in a TL blog. He writes a story claiming he did it on purpose, so he doesn't look like a pussy in Tyler's eyes, but instead an asshole.
|
I think that Chill said it best.
This year I attended MLG Dallas with one goal in mind, piss off Liquid`Tyler
What kind of goal is this? Your life must be going not so well, isn't it?
|
Good stuff. Maybe you can have a conversation about no gg no skill in front of IdrA when you see him.

No seriously, I dunno why you'd want Tyler to dislike you... Why would you want anyone to dislike your really, unless they did something very specific that pissed you off.

Luckily for you, you're the admin and I'm the user.
IMO, OP did a pretty ballsy troll move. Moreover, he didn't do it in a clowny manner to look funny in front of the crowd, he did it for his own inner humor and I respect that.
Main point is, you guys(Chill + bandwagoners) have a rigid sense of humor.
|
hahaha that's awesome, i love it.
|
haha kinda sad that a nice guy like Tyler was the trolled guy, but i find the story pretty amusing, elaborated trolling for the sake of it, i can respect that.
Anyway, it's expected to have those kind of responses (chill, etc.) posting the story here in tl because obviously ppl won't like you doing anything like this to our guys, maybe it's troll plan #2 ? ._.
|
holy shit i can't stop chuckling to myself just imagining this going down in my head
|
lmao you made my day, next time film it D=
|
This is hilarious...I'm glad you shared this with us. I guess the ~85% of people approving of your sense of humor must all be idiots, right Chill and co.?

IDK if people are bandwagonning. The fact is that Tyler specifically pointed out something he doesn't like and that he wants to have a clear head so he can focus for events. A lot of people around here think Tyler is a good guy and to have some one go out of their way to make him uncomfortable... I think scorn is the appropriate response

Cool story, bro.
I hope you had massive amounts of lawls for being so "clever".

I think the scorn is because it's just not funny. I mean, it's not even a practical joke.

I thought at worst it was slightly funny...

Well, that's pretty BM.
That being said, I have never understood the fascination many people have with needing to do some kind of death grip handshake where I feel like my arm is going to get ripped out of the socket. Seriously, I've met people who make me lose my balance when I shake their hand, its just fucking stupid.
|
I don't see the reason for the hate lol. I doubt tyler's mindset was hugely shaken by one guy doing this. It wasn't like OMG FUNNY but it was humourous given that he heard tyler disliked this (it isn't like tyler hates people who kick him in the face and he did that is it? )
3/5
|
lol
I can't explain why this is even funny but I thought it was hilarious.
it's one of those those things that makes you look like an idiot rather than the recipient and didn't really do any harm anyways so I have no idea why people are giving him flak

Shakers gonna shake?

re-read.
re-laughed.
At the word 'disgust' i'm in tears.
|
I don't understand.
I guess I'm gonna go with Chill on this one.
|
Why would you bm tyler, so mean. T_T
|
I agree with Chill, but I did enjoy the story anyway.
|
lmao, im not gonna lie that i got a laugh out of this one xD
|
Major case of sandy vagina if this isn't funny to you.
|
Can't the guy be a idiot and the story still be funny? I think so!!

Typical 2010ism!
I'm surprised that the OP, knowing what tyler doesn't like, doesn't know how serious he takes his mental state. I bet you planned this silly blog before you even did that handshake. IF IT EVEN HAPPENED
dun dun dun

The fact that over half of the posters here don't find this funny makes me sad. For shame.

I don't understand why your so upset over this, it's a story about a girly handshake and you freak out and demand scorn upon me! Rofl, kids like you are really funny to me. Lighten up, he won't remember it, it didn't affect him in the slightest, and I'll always be a nony fan and i'll do it again next MLG Dallas too.

I would say a 17:3 ratio of idiots to people I would have a beer with is about right.

The only thing funny about this is how stupid you are.
|
This is hilarious. The people hating on you don't really understand different types of humor.
It's so funny because only jackasses judge people based on the strength of their handshake(no offense to Nony, hes cool).
I mean, seriously? Judging someone off of how hard they grasp your hand?
The fact that he stared you down is even funnier, like you offended him in some deep way.
|
Hilarious. Trying to annoy one of the most laid back members of the community in such a ridiculous fashion is right up my alley. :D
|
Haha I think its kinda a silly, harmless troll Cute.

It's not bandwagonning, it's common sense. As for your first sentence, why not go full martyr?

People need to lighten up. You should have curtsied, lol.
|
Should have given him a limp hug as well
|
5/5 - Imagining Nony cringing at the feel of your dead hand made me chuckle (I hate weak handshakes too, though).
You definitely could have played that better. Like gone up to him all bright and cheery and put out your hand energetically. Then right when he's about to shake your hand, just release tension.
|
I don't understand. How does making someone mad make it funny? Isn't that a bit immature?
|
Was OP drunk/on drugs when he did this?
Does OP have a secret hatred for Nony?
Or is OP just stupid?
Oh the suspense!

I noticed you didn't put an "all-of-the-above".
I don't truly believe he's stupid, but the other two, potentially.

My first sentence was supposed to mean "If I was the admin, and you weren't, and you said what you said, you'd get banned for blatantly insulting a person for their different sense of humor".
How is acceptable/funny trolling different than this 'non-acceptable' trolling if you don't include sense of humor, which is highly subjective, into the formula? It isn't.
Insulting people for their sexual/racial/religious preferences isn't acceptable, but it's fine to call someone an idiot for what he finds funny? I don't think so.

HAHAHA, kind of mean tho but still pretty funny ^^. I love that you end it with "the end" :D
|
You're a terrible person. that said, I laughed.
Lighten up a little, guys. Is he such a reprehensible human being for giving a dead-fish handshake?
|
I think it's a pretty funny thing to do. He says he hates weak handshakes, and you give him the weakest he's ever seen.
I'd say it's probably a worse idea to do it at a major tourney like MLG, but then again where could you actually meet him? Doing it after he's done all his games is probably the best compromise.
I'm not sure whether I want Tyler to post in this or not.
|
This is like, so random, like seriously, random
but i did laugh
|
Don't you think it's a little selfish to intentionally make someone uncomfortable for your own obscure self satisfaction? I guess I just don't "get it."
|
It's not like he gave a dirty sanchez to a germophobe

I thought this was going to be about this
