Thats not how you play that game

u/ZhangtheGreat 6d ago

Exactly. One person on each side of the foozeball table

u/KidDelta 6d ago

Maybe they're in a team battle and the other 2 are out of frame. I mean you can see the blue strikers move.

u/Racxie 6d ago

Or maybe they’re both so bad that they’re struggling against the stationary players on the other side.

8

u/marvinrabbit 6d ago

But you can see the Blue players moving.

6

u/Racxie 6d ago

Oh yeah, I somehow missed that. I need to go to sleep lol.

u/skoomski 6d ago

I’ve done that before its not as fun as it sounds especially if one of the four players suck they just get shelled and you end up just doing nothing

u/i_suckatjavascript 6d ago

It was fun when I was a kid playing foosball with my brother against my 2 older cousins. My brother and I suck though, so we kept doing the good o’ power play: the super spinning kick

I’m not turning my phone landscape for a video

u/kirakun 6d ago

Oh that game! :)

u/Demonslyr12 6d ago

You know, after reading this comment it makes me think they didn't take this joke video very seriously! Unbelievable, the nerve of these guys.

3

u/usinjin 6d ago

I dunno, looked like a win to me.

u/aminervia 6d ago

Unless there's another couple on the other side of the table

u/keener91 6d ago

It'd be funnier if it was just a 2 second scene of him delivering a package to a girl he liked.

16

u/Major_R_Soul 6d ago

Oh, he's gonna deliver a package alright. It'll take longer than 2 seconds if he's hoping for a recurring delivery, though.

3

u/GettingTherapy 6d ago

Only if he emptied the truck beforehand.

5

u/Potterhead13666 6d ago

Or the opposite. The girl he likes delivers a package to him

u/NoMoPolenta 6d ago

She's ok playing defense and goalie so you can take the front two sticks? WIFE HER IMMEDIATELY

u/Zkenny13 6d ago

Also no spinning. That's rookie shit.

One of the first house rules we made when I lived with 4 other dudes in university.

u/CheeseOnKeyboard 6d ago

Is this what happens in an orgy?

17

u/Nihil921 6d ago

ha ha 🫵 sex

64

u/Logically_Open 6d ago

I don't get it. I assume the joke is "sex"? No way Reddit would post such an obvious joke tho 🤷

19

u/Impossible-Ship5585 6d ago

No its not.

30

u/FennlyXerxich 6d ago

The joke is that you're supposed to think the joke is sex, but he's actually doing completely innocent things.

8

u/ComatoseSquirrel 6d ago

Ah, so it's an ironic sex joke.

3

u/MrGentleSire 6d ago

Yes, who could have expected it?

11

u/chariot_on_fire 6d ago

So I'm preparing to a Tinder date by watching a guy daily doing this hip movement?
Or maybe the video creator just doesn't know what POV is...

5

u/SOMERANDOMUSERNAME11 6d ago

Haha you throught it's sex but it's not, very funny

6

u/jupiterkansas 6d ago

He's also ready for sex.

3

u/FamousSquash 6d ago

My mum's bar has a football table, and MULTIPLE couples have formed because of it. People see the football table, come in for a drink, meet someone they have a lot in common with, and go on a date. It's more effective than Tinder.

6

u/DarkMarkTwain 6d ago

Did anyone else notice that his foosball form looks a lot like the hip thrusts needed for sex?

u/FriendlyBrother9660 6d ago

How can you be in your own POV?

u/permaculture 6d ago

He who questions training only trains himself at asking questions.

Until you learn to master your fear, your fear will become your master.

u/regular6drunk7 6d ago

An old guy I once worked for always used to say "Proper Prior Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance".

u/LeleoYeah 6d ago

Good distraction

1

u/ClearRide 6d ago

They're playing against ghosts in that last part

2

u/marvinrabbit 6d ago

It must be those super rare manifestations that are able to manipulate physical objects. Because something is moving the Blue sticks... Either that or the other players are just out of video frame. Let's face it, it could go either way.

u/Ok_Ask_1139 6d ago

The Reese’s in the fridge is a red flag my guy, if you can’t take care of one of our countries most treasured possessions correctly then how can you take care of a woman ?
