"Go back?" he thought. "No good at all! Go sideways? Impossible! Go forward? Only thing to do! On we go!" So up he got, and trotted along with his little sword held in front of him and one hand feeling the wall, and his heart all of a patter and a pitter.

the Coffeezilla three part video on CS:GO / Valve-enabled online gambling is fascinating. and kudos to him for taking shots directly at Valve for profiting from and willfully enabling underage gambling. i do not think the Valve fandom will treat him kindly for it
