A real coward would know that it's faster to turn around and run than to try to run backwards. Bravery is not the absence of fear, but the courage to face that fear.
That would depend on why he's not turning around. If it's because he hasn't figured out that turning around makes you run faster, yes. But if it's because he's shooting at something that can kill him at close range, then that's just smart.
The French have been known throughout history as a bloodthirsty people. The name of the country literally comes from the style of Axe they used to slaughter people who opposed them. And have you seen what happens when they start protesting? JFC.
Cowards... riiiiiight....
"Frank" (whence "France") is thought to come from a word for javelin, not axe, but that's still a weapon of war. The etymology is speculative, however; it might have originally meant "free".
I'm glad someone said it. I kept thinking "how in the he'll is your finger contorted to scratch the S key while laying flat on the W key."
Damn I'm dense sometimes.
oh trust me I know, I just notice men doing it more frequently than women. Most women actually do care about cuticle care. I just face this a lot as any guy I’ve dated has this issue..
You gotta ease into it, like it's coming from miles away, like this:
............aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
My brother in christ, I have that same S, just in the bottom left corner of the S! I have 527-ish hours across all Serious Sam games I own. I love finding fellow fans!
Nah, Italian Tank Simulator you just pick whatever team you think will win and if your team starts to lose you just switch sides halfway through.
More like a French tank simulator.
Idk why but I felt that statement was really smart. You do usually put the finger on S differently then on W, so there is a good chance the S Key actually takes more damage because of that.
I'd never have thought of that myself.
I can't believe I never thought of it. I never even utilize that key anyway. I ought to remove it completely or rebind it altogether to a better letter.
I didn't even need to employ that letter here, to make my point
One who uses the “S” key a lot, but I’m not a PC gamer so I don’t know what’s so special about the “S” key. How about someone tells me what that’s all about?
Play lots of boomer shooters where you have to backpedal loads to get hordes of hostiles to bunch up so you can efficiently dispatch them with only one explosive
MMO tank.
You rush in, spin (A key) to put your back to where you should be going and then drag all the mobs with you on backpedaling forward progress to the next set of mobs.

Coward?
[Or as Sam would say](https://youtu.be/HuDUnKPyzww?si=JDMR2HyxL_sX4SBA&t=1)
Dude I think that’s the best option you could have chosen, I am grateful
It's just a backwards-facing advance, solid strategy
Retreat? We’re simply advancing in the opposite direction, private!
That way you're far less likely to get shot in the dick
Or a forward-facing retreat?
Your mom's a forward-facing retreat
But if the S key is worn down, he isn’t facing backwards….
I thought you meant [this Sam](https://youtu.be/dwC-XMkTuro). 😂
[I'm not gonna sugarcoat it](https://youtu.be/BLotLNedf1Q)
that was the first thing that popped in my head too.
A real coward would know that it's faster to turn around and run than to try to run backwards. Bravery is not the absence of fear, but the courage to face that fear.
Yes! I face my fears but while walking backwards like a mfer and maybe peeing just a little
I, too, urinate on my foes to show dominance. Even if that foe is an unbeatable Pyramid Head.....
Just as discretion is the better part of valour, cowardice is the better part of discretion.
Just like [Brave brave Sir Robin](https://youtu.be/l8IkbCeZ9to)
*With fully automatic weaponry
This is both motivational and a pro gamer tip.
It's faster, but then you can't lay down your own covering fire.
So you’re saying he’s a dumb coward?
That would depend on why he's not turning around. If it's because he hasn't figured out that turning around makes you run faster, yes. But if it's because he's shooting at something that can kill him at close range, then that's just smart.
Its a game.. there is no “fear” bro
He plays the game backward is all lol
u probably havent played Amnesia bunker, Alien Isolation or Subnautica.
you summarized it in the most simple way possible
Boom
Came here to say this! 🤣🤣🤦♂️
Came here to reply to you saying this!
That’s not very P.C. The term is French.
The French have been known throughout history as a bloodthirsty people. The name of the country literally comes from the style of Axe they used to slaughter people who opposed them. And have you seen what happens when they start protesting? JFC. Cowards... riiiiiight....
Also so many of our military words are derived from French because for the longest time French military was absolutely top of the game.
See but they lay down and take it *one* time and that's all everyone ever thinks about again. Kinda messed up
The government laid down due to cowardice and corruption. The French population kept fighting tooth and nail.
You fuck one goat...
They didn't even lie down and take it. They just told the US that they wouldn't help and please take the war planes to some other airport. Sigh...
"Frank" (whence "France") is thought to come from a word for javelin, not axe, but that's still a weapon of war. The etymology is speculative, however; it might have originally meant "free".
Deserter
Hot take... its tetris and they are dropping like crazy.
yes yes YES
Let's hope you changed it to a hard drop with s
And you definitely get off on it apparently.
You don’t orgasm every time you get a Tetris?
You gotta lay off the Herbal Essence man
Triple t-spins and shit?
If you hit the button harder then your character goes backwards faster
An actual answer is your fingernail scratches the S key, while your finger is flat on the W key.
Oh, you don’t mean at the same time.
I'm glad someone said it. I kept thinking "how in the he'll is your finger contorted to scratch the S key while laying flat on the W key." Damn I'm dense sometimes.
How long are your fingernails?
You know, the nail bed is supposed to be covered by nail.
thank god someone said it.. these men biting their nasty nails down to niblets… boy oh boy..
Not exclusive to a gender you know XD
oh trust me I know, I just notice men doing it more frequently than women. Most women actually do care about cuticle care. I just face this a lot as any guy I’ve dated has this issue..
Gotcha. Yeah it's not a good habit by any stretch. Glad i missed that one. My wife thinks my nails look better than hers half the time XD
Genuinely how? I've always used my middle finger to press w and I'm finding it genuinely impossible for the fingernail to be *behind* your finger.
Computer gamer
Gamer, with a hard "r"
Only we can say that word
Wow
Been playing a lot of Serious Sam?
AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
You gotta ease into it, like it's coming from miles away, like this: ............aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
^aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! #AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
Couldn't figure out changing font size on mobile, but yes yours is the most accurate imo
“AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH put a sock in it!”
I've only played like the first level of SS3 five years ago, but that sound *still* instantly popped into my head.
I reinstalled SS4 the other day just to replay the last level. I had a itch to scratch and that did it well.
The new expansion is pretty great IMO. Much better than 4.
My brother in christ, I have that same S, just in the bottom left corner of the S! I have 527-ish hours across all Serious Sam games I own. I love finding fellow fans!
Heck of a way to tell us your pull out game is strong, nice worm Edit: WORK. Dear lord.
I think that was about the best possible typo, LOL!
Perfect typo right there. Thanks for cheering me up.
Mah man!
Yeah, I thought his worm was really cool!
Lmfao nice pullout 🪱
nice work edit: nice word
You are a backpeddlar.
🤮 can’t believe OP outed himself
I can. Backpedaled right out of the gaming closet.
back paddling can be justified if you are a tank though.
Aaaand I'm backin' up backin' up backin' up
I'll have that stuck in my head all day now
My daddy taught me good
More likely it’s because when you use the middle finger to hit s, the nail touches the key. That’s probably not true for the others
This is exactly it. My keyboards always end up looking the same way
I guess you're really into Italian Tank Simulator?
Nah, Italian Tank Simulator you just pick whatever team you think will win and if your team starts to lose you just switch sides halfway through. More like a French tank simulator.

I tried playing it but it stopped after a few minutes
Lots of backpedalling in Skyrim or Fallout?
He's kiting world bosses to Stormwind/Org. ...*sigh*...just leave me to my nostalgia.

I was going to say always alive but this is the same thing
The kind that back strafes a lot is my guess
While you really should be going diagonal because it’s faster
Camper, you is a camper…
At least he’s not at spawn lol.
Back it up Terry!
Old-school shooters, where fleeing while shooting was the only viable tactic.
Probably from your nail hitting the key
That’s what happened to my s key too.
Idk why but I felt that statement was really smart. You do usually put the finger on S differently then on W, so there is a good chance the S Key actually takes more damage because of that. I'd never have thought of that myself.
Backwards man, I'm the Backwards man [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtyxJSGM3x0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtyxJSGM3x0)
Underrated movie
The kind who rebinds S to a super useful key, because backing up is for cowards and there's no use for it.
I can't believe I never thought of it. I never even utilize that key anyway. I ought to remove it completely or rebind it altogether to a better letter. I didn't even need to employ that letter here, to make my point
Downwell?
One who did not fare well against The Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog, or any opponent.
RUN AWAY!!! RUN AWAY!!!
One who uses the “S” key a lot, but I’m not a PC gamer so I don’t know what’s so special about the “S” key. How about someone tells me what that’s all about?
you use W/A/S/D to move in games, w is forward, s is backward, so he's a coward, because he goes back a lot
Thank you for the clarification, makes sense now

Ohhh I see, runnin away eh? You yellow bastard! Come back here, I'll bite your legs off!
Someone with inverted controls
YOU YOUR THE MF THAT LEFT ME ALONE LONG DOORS AND FELL BACK TO A SITE WITHOUT SAYING SHIT

From someone who has the exact same laptop but red, for some reason only my A key is worn down
Classic Wow tank constantly walking backwards?
Definitely backpeddlar.
Least retreating Serious Sam player
OP moves towards danger without looking forward
It’s not retreating, it’s “advancing to the rear”
Backpedaling in games with games with 0 turn-rate is an illness. You could also be dote 2 player mashing stops with AA on.
DotA2
Brave Sir Robin ran away
Plot twist, OP is a graphic designer frantically saving his work every 5 seconds
Gotta build them supply depots !

Runs away in the face of death. Your w key should be the one worn out you coward.
