for the glitch.\u00a0 And naturally, one of the teammates was unaware of said glitch, and unbeknownst to them that I could hear them, the fourth explained that she was technically above me, but the glitch made her silhouette register underneath her, fooling me, the Tank.<\/p>\n<p>So with this new knowledge in hand, I jumped up and swiped towards the ceiling, hearing the gratifying sound of fist on flesh.\u00a0 Suddenly the silhouette went from green to yellow, and then yellow to red, as I began to weaken her with each swipe.\u00a0 Over the sound channels, she was cursing and explaining her shock at me exploiting her cheat.\u00a0 With my last swipe, the ceiling collapsed, and an incapacitated naked girl fell out.\u00a0 Don&#8217;t know why she was naked, but oh well.<\/p>\n<p>I grabbed the girl in my massive Tank hand, and squeezed her torso as she writhed in humiliation.\u00a0 And then I delicately reached into a coffee mug on one of the office desks in the surrounding area, and retrieved an orange Sharpie marker.\u00a0 With the naked girl struggling and fighting to free herself, I popped the top of the marker, and in big capital letters, I wrote on her midriff:<\/p>\n<h1><strong>O W N E D<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>I woke up from the dream happy and amused.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had an awesome dream the other night.\u00a0 I was the Tank.\u00a0 No, not I was the one in control of the Tank, I WAS the Tank.\u00a0 A big, hulking zombie, impervious to large quantities of ammunition, and at least nine blows from frying pans, night sticks, katanas and baseball bats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[34,61,15,52,19],"class_list":["post-26289","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-brog","tag-dreams","tag-l4d","tag-og","tag-owned","tag-video-games"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26289","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=26289"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26289\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26291,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26289\/revisions\/26291"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=26289"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=26289"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/totfc.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=26289"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
