This was the first post of the day when I opened lemmy. And it was the first to make me super satisfied with a big grin. Absolute joy. Love it! I’m not even gonna scroll cause I love this moment too much to ruin it. I’m gonna fuck off to watch some saved videos instead. Hat tip.

I expect to see this reported as fact on Newsmax by the middle of next week.

"For our next segment: Is Tetris woke? Let's discuss."

"Has Nintendo been grooming youths to attack traditional family values?"

"Should us real patriots start boycotting video games?"

Let's not give Nintendo credit for this one. His name is Alexey Pajitnov.

Right, because they never blame the wrong people while they're blaming the wrong things. Paragons of virtue and real sticklers for accuracy to maintain their journalistic integrity, those ones.

What? No, I just mean to give the original creator of the game the credit he deserves. It was originally stolen from him.

Lol I know, I was just bouncing back for an extra dig at those shitty networks.

One minute you're playing Tetris, the next minute you're taking another man's cock up your arse. The link is undeniable.

I can't think of a time this didn't happen to me while playing Tetris

They say correlation doesn't equal causation, but the dick up the arse suggests otherwise

[–] shneancy 6 points 7 months ago

ngl i've had fantasies like that

Literally 1984

Stupid sexy Tetris.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 7 months ago

Not less ridiculous than the right's actual complaints.

ALL MY SEXY M&Ms ARE GONE.

I usually hate this meme format, but this is amazing.

I was scanning it for the "we've been played for ABSOLUTE FOOLS" part.

..the itch wasn't scratched. :(

It sounds like a more unhinged version of my father's rants about the liberal agenda

[–] EdibleFriend 24 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I played Tetris on the original game boy. Right now I'm listening to the Rocky horror picture show soundtrack.

Coincidence?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I don’t think so. You are five minute to gay.

[–] EdibleFriend 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is that when Henry Cavill gets here?

[–] mossy_ 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If so, your prognosis is bleak

[–] EdibleFriend 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I'd bleak his prognosis.

[–] Diplomjodler3 7 points 7 months ago

It all makes so much sense now!

[–] danc4498 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You gonna lump the squares in with the straights! Not in my backwoods trailer your not!

[–] cheese_greater 2 points 7 months ago

Ur gunna hav to go thru ME

[–] taiyang 4 points 7 months ago

Yet, in the old days the only path to success was through shoving straight into a hole. Now a days (while having a Tetris 99 orgy) you have your T spins and your combos and your double T spins. It's a T agenda conspiracy!

Alright, anyone have Kevin McCarthys phone # in hell? We can't let this corrupting influence hurt the CHILDREN

They could have used terms like “convex” and “concave” to describe the shapes, but then again, I’m really picky when it comes to math.

[–] psud 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

The convex ones are concave on the other side. The straight piece is generally called "the straight piece"

[–] ParabolicMotion 1 points 7 months ago

The ones on the right contain some exterior angles that are less than 180 degrees, giving them concavity. Not every exterior angle of these shapes is this way, but due to having some exterior angles like this, I called them concave. The ones on the left have none of these such angles.

I agree with calling a straight a straight.

Tetris is woke.
