    Pretentious narcissistic hoe

    Everyone else submitted real photos for the "everyday heroes" contest, except her.
    You know, pictures of firemen, homeless people, soldiers, disabled people, single moms, seeing-eye dogs, nurses, etc.

    And what was the official entry of Blackwell Academy from Arkadia Bay, Oregon?

    A fucking selfie of Max Caulfield staring in awe at her own photographs.

    "Fuck your selfie", indeed.

      Editing … Victoria's entry was WAY better. She submitted a photograph of some random middle-aged man on a subway who put his head inside both of his hands. It really captured my imagination, I kept asking myself: "who is this guy? What happened to him? Is he sad or does he just have a headache? Did sth terrible happen to him? Did someone he love die or leave him? Does he have financial or health related problems? Why is noone comforting him?" The voyeuristic nature of her photo did upset me slightly.

      Editing … I wasn't saying that there are a ton of faux emotional games out there, but honest to God, FFVII is one of them. The Witcher 3. Mass Effect series have some very genuine moments. The Walking Dead Season 1 is the best game in this kind of point and click and watch the story genre. If you enjoy the games, Metal Gear Solid 1-4 can give you some real feels. Red Dead Redemption. Half Life 2 just to wake up and smell the ashes.

      Editing … I completed all of the games you mentioned except Witcher 3 bc fuck fantasy. MGS is straight up stupid, Walking dead, mass effect and RDR were all cool, but only walking dead really spoke to me on an emotional level. So one game. And that one game would be infinitely better if it had no zombies in it or wasn't based on a comic book / TV show.

      Editing … You enjoy melodrama, and there is literally nothing wrong with that, no matter how much I berate you. But I must berate you a bit. I mean, Life is Strange the best game ever? I'm not even talking about the gameplay, which is bad, but the writing is supbar, and while the voice acting is at times really good, it's taken down by the buttugly artstyle and at times clunky animation. I can't stress enough how the writing doesn't have all that much substance, and it does a bunch of played out cliches to tug at your heartstrings, and movies have done it for almost a century now. I just don't get why people are praising this game. But yeah, like whatever you like, please don't mind me.

      Editing … Well, what combines video games you like (the games we call EMOTIONS) is that they have some very dramatic moments. Big feelings, big speeches, quiet speeches, maybe some tears thrown in there. Usually something horrible happens, say you have to choose between killing a town full of people or a dumb cunt. But you'll still feel bad for the cunt, because you have an emotional bond to her, so it's a very melodramatic moment when you have to kill the cunt.

Buhu, cry me a river. They're just pixels inside a video game after all. My bae isn't. She loves me. WE WERE MADE FOR EACH OTHER

      Editing … It's melodrama if it's in any way exaggerated (really emotional dialogue, touching music etc.) or if it's a really grandiose moment (killing your bae for the greater good). Melodrama, for some reason, has a bad ring to it even though there is nothing wrong with melodrama. Melodrama can even be really small moments done in a certain way. Requiem for a Dream is one of the most melodramatic movies in existence.

      Editing … So normal drama is the boring version of melodrama that isn't accompanied by overly dramatic music and where people cry slightly less and have to deal with less crap. I hate being entertained, I want to feel like shit after consuming a movie or game. Give me all the feels, I say. Don't hold anything back, I can handle it
