dragged a 15m ethernet cable through my apartment and honestly it was worth the shame

I was tired of losing ranked matches because my wifi decided the microwave was more important than my team. Ran a cable along the baseboards with little clips and now my ping is boring in the best way.

My living room looks faintly like a bank robbery setup but I regret nothing.

Meanwhile my roommate still says wifi is "basically the same" while teleporting across Rocket League.

You havent lived until youve tucked a cable under three rugs and called it engineering.
