EPTSo, I go to their website and can't see what YP stands for or who any of their sponsors are. Does anyone know the answer to these 2 questions?

Note that he is American and uses words like "little Jimmy", "basement dweller" and conflates the world to consist solely of USA. Why tournament organisers seem to care is another question.A lot of new gamers are kids and need their parents' money to buy games. Do you think parents would like it if little Jimmy's favorite player is sponsored by Pornhub? I mean it seems normal to us because we're basement dwellers, but the world isnt as progressive as people think. Porn is still a taboo in a lot of places. Everyone watches it, but they don't really talk about it or advertise it in public. | ||

not saying they should be banned from having a team or anything (that would be ridiculous), but it's not a stretch to find it kind of disgusting lol | ||

There was a documentary on the porno industry, and your statement contradicts what many actors said about being in the industry. Sure they do it for the money, but they also enjoy having sex. Why not get paid for what you enjoy. No one forces them into doing it. Porno of the past is not the same as today. Sure there are plenty of women in that situation, but to use the word 'largely' is a stretch. Mind you, the comments from the documentary are anecdotal at best, so you could very well be right. However, without facts, your statement could be wrong as well. I can't remember the documentary, it was shown on tv late one night, but they interviewed many actors and all of them said they are in this industry first because they enjoy sex, and second for the money. | ||

Even though, mounds of research show that, people have shockling little self control when it comes to these things. But I don't really care what you do because it doesn't affect, but if releasing my history is all it takes for you to be wrong, here ya go (ignorant arguments are fun): *Nevermind, I just realized my email address was shown in my history.* I guess the people that saw my history can feel free to email me. | ||

Good god man. Obvious joke goes way over your head. Also it's interesting that you equate cheeseburgers to porn, because McDonalds sponsors a shit ton of professional athletes and I don't hear any complaints from people about that lel | ||

And it didn't go over my head man (though I do think mebe mine went over your head), I just took it a step further. Jokes are more funny when they are true. Make it true. Now where is your history? I wanna see if you like shemales. Show me how okay it is. On February 19 2016 03:14 Deathstar wrote: I too wonder how I would survive if I fell into a black hole.
