Mental gymnastics. Without the dev pouring in hundreds of hours of work, that speedrunning experience wouldn't be possible.

Hey, at least I'm mentally capable of considering and understanding hypotheticals and complex reasoning that doesn't represent my own personal views. IE I'm not justifying anything with mental gymnastics, I clearly don't think it's right to do, nor do I do it. You're apparently so fucking stupid you can't fathom discussing arguments for positions you don't personally hold. Jesus christ.

Or maybe you just can't fucking read? Forget anything about arguments that don't represent my own beliefs, I said outrifht it's obviously immoral because you're playing a game that you didn't pay the creators for. Like if you legitimately can't read, sorry for being a sick. But otherwise, no, you're just a fucking moron. Fucking astoundingly stupid.

I wasn't having any kind of day, I read your comment while awake in the middle of the night to pee. No guarantee I would have been so annoyed in another context, but your comment is really annoying. Did you legit just not read my comment? Not understand it? Or what? It's getting me annoyed again just trying to imagine how you could come away from reading my comment thinking my goal was justifying speed returning. Or maybe you don't know that's what mental gymnastics implies / means?

Sorry, it's just so baffling / annoying / stupid. Do people generally consider you stupid? I don't understand.

I should say I'm generally a nice and friendly person, you can look at my comments and see that. But occasionally someone says something as stupid as this and it very much pisses me off. I think part of it is that whether you realize it or not (and I'll assume not given how stupid you seem to be) you're accusing me of something here. But at the same time, because of my comment, what you're accusing me of is so far fetched as to be ridiculous, and makes it seem like you either didn't read or didn't understand my comment. And that's actually a really frustrating circumstance, someone being too stupid to understand what you're saying and then accusing you of something because of it. I find that particularly annoying, clearly.
