Stolen valor I fucking knew it
The two games I mentioned I liked, you didn’t get rewarded for playing. You played to play.
COD, meh... it was before your time.
Played through COD 2 on Veteran. It was grueling. Infinite respawns on every level? Fucking tiresome.
There is nothing ‘before my time’, goofball. I used to copy code out of 3-2-1 Contact into my Apple IIe, and play space invaders or seven cities of gold.
COD2 sucked.
Bwhahahah....got you beat by at least 5 years. I peogramed on TI/99/4
Please...we didn’t get an Apple IIe till my mother got one from Apple because she was a teacher.
Fuck... I could go back further than that, but IBM card mainframes probably don’t count in your eyes.
By the time the Apple IIe came out and the performance 405 came to teplace it. I was teaching my mother Basic, and Logo.

Whatever helps. Far from a fucking noob either way.
Ryan Gosling defends Neil Armstrong biopic 'First Man' leaving out American flag in moon landing scene
The film fails to show one of the most integral moments of American history – when Armstrong plants the American flag on the moon, according to The Telegraph. Ryan Gosling, the Canadian actor who portrays Armstrong in the movie, defended the decision to not show the flag.
Gosling was asked at the Venice Film Festival whether omitting the scene was deliberate and the actor attempted to sidestep the question by responding that the moon landing “transcended countries and borders.”
“I think this was widely regarded in the end as a human achievement [and] that's how we chose to view it,” he told reporters. "I also think Neil was extremely humble, as were many of these astronauts, and time and time again he deferred the focus from himself to the 400,000 people who made the mission possible.”
Gosling said he didn’t think Armstrong “viewed himself as an American hero.”...
Taking “You didn’t build that” to all new heights.
I've been thinking about it and I'll bet this is more of a reflection of the global movie market than a slight to Americans necessarily. This image comes to mind, US blu-ray movie releases compared to the international versions:
