Random Alternatives to Among Us

October 1, 2020September 25, 2020 Medic 0 Comments among us, garry's mod, random, spuf of legend, trouble in terrorist town, ttt

Among Us is the new big craze right now. Between it and Fall Guys, there’s a lot of cute backstabbing going on. But Among Us isn’t particularly new. Not at all. In fact, Mafia-style games have been going on for years in tons of different formats. I originally played my first Mafia-style game on an old writing forum and, personally, I feel like it’s still one of the best ways to play. But if you don’t fancy doing that and are looking for literally any similar game that ISN’T Among Us, well, here’s some rather random options for you. Trouble… [Continue Reading]

Pokemon Go Needs More Random Encounters

July 18, 2020July 13, 2020 Medic 0 Comments grunt, pokemon go, random, team rocket

I absolutely loved the Team Go Rocket pre-Go Fest event. Sure, the event research sucked ass, but it was awesome having grunts to fight! It’s also cool being able to fight Giovanni and the Leaders, without scouring Pokestops with a radar. The nicest thing is that you can just sit at home on your own and have an encounter. Sure, most of the time, it’s a male grunt with an Omanyte, but it’s a nice little encounter. Something to spice up an otherwise empty world. Let’s face it, Pokemon Go’s map is bland! Up until we got the buddy update,… [Continue Reading]

There Are Always Idiots In Every Group. Always.

July 17, 2020July 12, 2020 Medic 0 Comments ramble, random

I was browsing imgur the other day when one of the front page posts was talking about being wrong about climate change. The post, a screenshot off of Tumblr, stated that there would be no real consequences if we turned out to be wrong about climate change and would still be making the world a better place. There were a few arguments in the comments, mostly about “well it’s all China/India’s fault!” and “the corporations do most of it!”. There were even some retards who commented that “more CO2 is good because plants need it!”, not knowing that carbon dioxide… [Continue Reading]

The Lost Art Of Identifying A Font

July 15, 2020July 10, 2020 Medic 0 Comments font, random, TEXT, writing

I have far too many fonts installed on my little computer. I want to say over 9000, but it’s not quite that many. Including font variants and very similar fonts, it’s probably closer to about 7000? Either way, it’s a lot of fonts. Why do I have so many fonts though? Well, aside from fueling my addiction, sometimes I have to recreate artwork. After all, a low resolution image Knowing some obvious fonts. Of course, there are a lot of common fonts that everyone uses. I’m not just talking about Comic Sans or Papyrus either. Back in the days where… [Continue Reading]

The Shitty Version of Diabetes

July 6, 2020July 1, 2020 Medic 0 Comments diabetes, illness, random, sad

When someone mentions diabetes, I know where most people’s minds go to. Normally it’s mentioned on some sort of picture of a sugar-heavy dessert. And someone always comments that “just looking at this gives me diabetes”. What most people know as diabetes is in fact Type 2 diabetes, which has known and (mostly) avoidable causes. But there are other types of diabetes. Of course, they always get lumped in with Type 2 diabetes, despite being very different. A Simple Explanation of Type 2 Diabetes Type 2 diabetes generally occurs when the body builds up a resistance to insulin within the… [Continue Reading]

Why I Am Bad At Making Videos

June 17, 2020June 11, 2020 Medic 0 Comments ramble, random, spuf of legend, video

I bet some of you have probably forgotten about our Youtube channel, right? The SPUF of Legend was created years ago by aabicus, as part of our 1000 Articles celebration. That was way back in 2016! Feels like a century ago, if I’m honest. But anyway, aabicus wanted to make a Youtube channel and we’d end up posting video articles on there. Except we never really got into the swing of things. It turns out, publishing a 500-word article every day is far, far easier than publishing a video of any length every week. As we get closer to 3000… [Continue Reading]

If I Could Completely Rework the Pyro…

June 2, 2020May 27, 2020 Medic 0 Comments pyro, ramble, random, Team Fortress 2

I’ll be honest, I’m not the biggest fan of the Pyro. The reason why is simple: Pyro is a close range class in a game filled with mid-range characters. That and the fact that the flamethrower just feels off compared to almost all other weapons in the game. Everything else shoots bullets or projectiles. Everything else is pretty clear that it hit you or damaged you. Flamethrowers are not the same. You get stray bits of flame that hit you or don’t hit you. Pyro overall is a jumbled mess of things that needs yet another complete rework anyway. So… [Continue Reading]

Hey, Vsauce, Medic Here

I was chatting with someone the other day and they said they needed to clear out their subscriptions on Youtube. They were subscribed to SO MANY things that they didn’t watch most of them. All sorts of stuff, but mostly just video game stuff, or things related to the TV shows they watched. I shrugged and said I probably needed to do the same. After all, there are channels I don’t watch at all. There are also channels I probably watch too much of. Frankly, I can split my subscribed channels into rather predictable groups. I have quite a few… [Continue Reading]

1920 x 1080

April 10, 2020April 3, 2020 Medic 0 Comments pixels, ramble, random

For most of my brief existence, I’ve not had the best monitor. I’ve had a tiny little screen and played all my games in dumb resolutions. But now I have a semi-decent computer (okay, a laptop) that has a much larger resolution. Despite, funnily enough, the laptop not being that much bigger. I can now experience the beauty that is 1920 x 1080. And blimey, it’s kinda hard to get used to. It’s all so… vast… The first thing I noticed was, funnily enough, how I had no images that fit my new massive desktop. I absolutely NEED a good… [Continue Reading]
