My confusion on the last sentence is with the inclusion of both “still” and “always”.
Either one would make sense and give flavor to the post about what you’re talking about.
“It still worked” meaning the TV/controller worked after being thrown around, a astute commentary about the durability of controllers and TVs compared to the original consoles.
“It always worked” seems to imply that doing this ritual completed the objective of calming the rage.
Both is just confusing me
Just gonna leave this here
I had this off brad PS2 controller with a small neon strip in it. I cracked the plastic around the handle in rage one day and it shocked my hands if they got sweaty after that. Still was my favorite controller even if it occasionally fought back.
Now, just to be clear:
The controller worked.
The TV has to be replaced every single time.
I used to get mad and chuck the controller at the NES. Imagine my surprise one day when I broke the cartridge door off. Fucking Battletoads.
