[00:00] I didn't even know what LARP meant until I met Soda Poppin in real life like a couple days ago and he was calling me a LARPer so I had to call him out and be like what does that even mean? Guys am I a LARPer? I have a confession but look this was only one time. Okay it was okay it was
[00:13] a couple times. This was only a couple times I had friends that I played WoW with growing up and we would role play real life duels. Like I had a friend that played a rogue and he would go stealth and sap me and I would pretend to be sapped and then he would cheap shot and I would blink. But
[00:28] That's, that was a long time ago. Guys, stop, stop. It's a confession. I'm, stop making fun of me. That's, that's messed up. That's messed up and cringe to make fun of someone that's, I'm telling you my deepest secrets here.
[00:41] I haven't even, I haven't even told this to my wife. We were all PVPers and we were literally just messing around and learning about how to interact in PVP because we're waiting for the bus at the school bus stop. And we're literally just sitting there.
[00:53] It's like, we might as well duel. We might as well pretend we're in the game dueling instead of sitting here doing nothing at school. Like close our eyes, pretend we're in the game and we're just... I never lost any of these LARP duels.
[01:08] I'm undefeated because I played a mage and I basically just blinked away. And I'm like, well, you're not allowed to hit me because I blinked. And then they would like get on top of me and I would just like frost over them and walk away. You're not allowed to move either. And I would ice lance. I'm like, well, you're dead technically
[01:20] because I just ice lanced you. So good duel. My last LARP was, I mean, probably 15 years ago. Oh, we're back in, baby.
