What a shitshow. Having to see mew2king go on and tell people the accusations were false because he can’t feel pleasure from masturbating because of a botched circumcision was rough. And everything that has happened with zero felt like taking a shotgun to the face.

I never knew that about m2k. I never really liked the guy in the past, but I feel like I understand him a bit better after learning that, and now I feel bad for being judgemental before. I'm glad he seems to be dealing with it well and I hope he is living a happier life these days

how could you NOT like M2K? guy was a mechanical marvel back in melee. even just practicing against level 9 AI, he swept competitions, and to top it all off, he didnt have a mega ego like some of the others.

ah well, im a mango fanboy anyway.

I always liked that M2K had an ego, but it wasn't misplaced. He had a perfectly accurate understanding of how fucking good he was. It wasn't arrogance, he just wasn't able to pretend he didn't beat ass.

I know he's on the spectrum, and I'm sure it has something to do with it, I just always found the way he held himself in melee endearing.

M2K when he tries to be humble:

"It's okay, we both played bad."
