Sometimes when I go shopping I like to look at what the people in front of me me are buying and imagine what kind of party they're going to have. Another day there was this guy who bought 40 beers and two cartons of eggs.
I still haven't made up my mind about what kind of party that was.

Today I thought I might start doing cardio. Then I thought I'd wait til it warmed up outside and jump rope. I did not check the forecast to see when it would warm up. I do not own a jump rope. I can't puzzle out beer and eggs either. Maybe he's gonna get a bunch of ladies intoxicated and take advantage of them, then make them omelettes in the morning.

I once met a black girl with a really short winter coat and thoughtlessly commented "Well, I can tell you're not from Finland!". Only after I said it I realized she probably gave those words a whole different interpretation than I had meant. I wanted to run after her and shout "Your coat! It's because you have a short coat and everyone here wears long ones! I'm not a racist I swear!!".

Of all the people I meet during the day, none interests me as much as Pear Dude. He's this guy, about 60 or so I'd guess, who leaves the train on the same station I board it every morning. He always wears a red beret and scarf and a long, black leather coat, and every time he steps out of the train he has what appears to be an entire pear in his mouth. He's always in a hurry and half runs wherever he's going.
Where's he going? What does he do? Why doesn't he eat breakfast at home? These are the things that interest me.

So here's something I just realized. You know the whole misongynistic "Meninism" thing? I just found out that that word, "Meninism," is just a crappy rip-off of "Feminism." For the longest time, I thought they were patterning their name on "Leninism," i.e. Marxism-Leninism. It's only a single letter difference!

Gentrification's started downtown and in Midtown, but yeah, a lot of the city will be in bad shape for quite a while.
(A Korean pop group filmed a music video in Detroit a few years ago to get that edgy post-apocalyptic feel for cheap -- and then cast all the black extras as rioters or criminals, and talked in interviews about how ~scary~ it was, because of course they would. Sigh.)

It's not all that bad. I don't live there, but I've visited plenty of times. A lot of rust belt cities in the US (Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, east/east-midwestern steel towns) are attracting millennials and new companies in droves because of their dirt-cheap cost of living and real estate. As a lifelong denizen of the rust belt, I kind of love it here, even though I felt a strong urge to leave up until I got a job in the opposite corner of the state from which I grew up. I also feel a fierce pride in the region, despite having little to defend. I know a lot of other people from the area feel the same way.
It's really cute seeing my friends from other parts of the country (especially, like, California) settle down in the rust belt and absolutely love it and never want to leave. My friends were recently charmed by an arcade in Pittsburgh called "Games 'n 'at" which, at 5 PM, dismissed all children and started carding everyone.

That they are, but "nightmare" is a pretty broad term. I guess I'm not really looking for something gender specific, but it would be nice if there was a blanket shorthand term for a person who has failed to develop socially beyond their childhood/teenage years.

One of my go-to movies for background noise when I work is the Dawn of the Dead remake. I'm not really sure why that is. It's not that it's my favorite movie, or that it even does anything particularly great... well other than the effects, which doesn't account for much if I'm not looking at it. Maybe it's the lack of hope in the story that makes it useful for this purpose. It's hard to say.

A lot of that stuff comes from injokes involving my ex. Here's a link to something very similar I created a long time ago for her birthday (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7567446/important_media/dendi.exe). It's less coherent and more memey so I'm not super proud of it.

Apparently at some point in my referral to a neurosurgeon here in Melbourne, my last name got misspelled with an N instead of an R. At this point I'm not sure how to correct it, or even if it's worth the trouble to, since while it's spread among three different systems it's all internally consistent, and I might be changing my name in a year or two anyway.
There's also sort of a silent question of how long it's going to go. Every time I have to deal with any of the people who have my name misspelled, I show one or two pieces of ID that clearly have my name spelled correctly. Eventually someone's going to notice that the name in their system is wrong, right?

As someone whose name is spelled incorrectly all the time, the answer is a resounding no. You gotta correct them if you want it right. an 'm' in my last name is changed to an 'n' like half of the time, and they never notice it unless I say something.
No to mention names being mispronounced, that's inevitable.
Speaking of last names, people on both sides of my family spell their last names in varying ways in English, creating unnecessary confusion. Anglicizing slavic last names can be tough, but be consistent please.

Heck no they won't! You gotta cross it off on their sheet, make a big deal out of it, and stand over them while you watch them correct it. My bf is a "two first names" kind of guy (second one I've dated, coincidentally, something about these east-coast prep-school types), in that he has a last name that sounds like a first name, so his names get swapped on medical records constantly. It doesn't get fixed unless you make a thing about it. (The first guy I dated with two first names has 'em perma-backwards on his info that's tied to his DCI number, so every time he goes to play MtG his name gets called backwards. Ha ha. Fuck that guy.)
I'm wearing this trendy skirt that's got a space print on it. Now that I'm looking even closer at it, it has SPACE KITTIES and SPACE UNICORNS on it. Life is good.

On the upside, it's the last dying throes of a party that has no principles left but bigotry and hatred. Trump winning the primaries isn't so much a victory for him as it is just proof that nobody left in the Republican party has any fucking clue how to be appealing to voters or how to effectively debate other people.
The downside is that as shitty as Trump is at this, he can still theoretically win. Ball's in your court, America: don't fuck this up.

Today I walked out to my yard to see a woodpecker landing on a concrete utility pole. He spent the next 3 minutes circling on it, enthusiastically pecking the concrete for insects. I think halfway through he realized what an idiot he was, but still kept up the show for a while longer not to lose face in front of me. He appeared disinterested and flew away at last. Sure woodpecker, sure. I saw what you did. You moron.

That is the fucking bomb. My parents, instead of empty nesting, are doing that now, but they're starting to go on Disney Cruises and doing the Food and Wine week thing rather than the 8-day see-every-park-twice family vacation experience.
The last time I went, I tried to do a Magic Kingdom one-day itinerary. Not one that is optimized for the best experience, but one that is optimized so you have the best chance of seeing everything, literally everything, in the park in one full day, from opening ceremonies to fireworks. At the time, this was 60ish attractions. A few were closed, so I think I had 50-some to work with. I got through 38 rides and attractions in 12 hours before ragequitting. I could have kept going because the park hadn't closed yet, but I was toast. I didn't take breaks for food, and I intentionally skipped "It's a Small World" because I knew I couldn't 100% complete it anyway. It was a harrowing day, but I also got to see attractions that I hadn't seen since my first visit in 1996. I will probably try again someday.
Park itinerary optimization is also a super interesting problem to tinker with if you like theme parks! I have recurring dreams about theme parks and have had them since my youth. I wonder what it means? Probably that I like theme parks.

If it makes you feel any better, one of the major reasons establishment Republicans have been rallying against Trump is because they know that he has absolutely no appeal amongst undecided and swing voters. In essence, a primary-election victory for Trump is a general-election victory for the Democratic candidate, whoever that may be, and the Republican old guard knows it.
In a twist of irony, one of the reasons Republicans grew so complacent post-2000 election is because their core voting bloc of angry old white people is not only firmly loyal to them but also has historically high voting turnout. Now, that same bloc's loyalty is being used against them, because as big as it is, it's not big enough to singlehandedly give the win to a blowhard gaffe machine who pointedly alienates anybody he's not directly pandering to.

I feel like I've passed the point in my life when I could have acceptably had fun with my appearance and look, and I kind of regret not having gone through regrettable phases where that went too far. It was literally only this year that I started buying clothes that aren't 't-shirts and cargo pants'. I'm still working towards buying nicer and more expressive clothes, and dying my hair is gonna happen sometime soon too. Probably a nice red.
On a completely unrelated note: I hate Linkin Park's In The End.

Bleh! Don't pay money for that. You can probably walk inside the convention center for free, and they'll only check your badge if you decide to go into panels or the dealer's room. Better yet, you can spectate from outside the convention center, where their noxious sweat will dissipate into the air.

I find nerd conventions to be a fun people-watching experience, and usually there's someone selling sci-fi and fantasy books so that's a plus, but if you have to pay to get in it's not worth it.

The office I work at is right next door to a kind of questionable investment group. The type that don't ever seem to do much of anything and you can't really tell how many people are working there, but most of the people you do see are just a bit too slick to be trustworthy.
They moved out yesterday, very abruptly; all their stuff just gone late that afternoon. It's probably completely innocent and they just moved offices, but with the stories my co-workers had about them it does feel weirdly shady, like we were just witnesses to some sort of organized crime setup packing up and vanishing into the night.
Mostly I just thought their secretary was cute, but now that they're gone there's a lot of 'now that I think about it' going on.

The internet says it's good to spread salt on your carpets and hardwood floors if you have fleas in your house. Apparently the salt dehydratates their tiny bodies and mummifies them.
I'm just wondering... if I use Himalayan salt will it still work? Wouldn't it just... completely improve their chi flow, remove all the toxins from their bodies and attune their chakras? Man, Himalayan salt can be a blessing, but it can also be a curse...

Depends on where it is. Usually if someone just goes to the building's front desk/wherever and asks politely, they can open up the machine and swap it out. It's such a little thing that it's not a big deal, especially if the place isn't very busy.

What I'm saying is the prevalence of irony on the internet makes it a goddamn nightmare to understand anything anymore, so I feel more sympathy for people on Facebook taking the Onion at face value than I might have done five years ago.

Irony on the internet is a game of being "in the know." Hints are usually about that signal to those looking for them. There is an argument to be made for humor, or a certain style of humor, to have some subtlety about it, some others achieve humor by trying to trick people. There becomes this culture of smugness about it though, in humor as well as politics and I've become less comfortable with it as of late (http://http:/www.vox.com/2016/4/21/11451378/smug-american-liberalism/).
I suppose that you could accuse the F+ of this kind of playing this kind of smug game, but that's just one of the good reasons we have the prime directive.

I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around the word "pad" right now. Maybe I'm just drunk, but I'm having a really hard time placing what exactly a "pad" is. All I can get is that it is something wider and longer than it is thick. The word implies something soft to me, but the more I thing about it, the less that makes sense as we have things like launch pads and mouse pads that are definitely hard.
Please help I'm drunk and can't sleep because I'm thinking about pads.

A mattress in an indoor hammock is just a more difficult to make, more difficult to use, and less comfortable bed. There's no breeze to sway in or trees to look up at, yet you still have the chance to flip yourself in your sleep and fall and die, and in the first place you have to pull some custom carpentry to suspend the thing.

To me, one of the weirdest things about the internet is how hard it is to determine someone's age. Like, imagine living in a world where everyone looks like an adult and is treated like an adult, except that some people are secretly two middle schoolers in a trench coat, and most of the time nobody can tell the difference because a lot of the real adults act like middle schoolers anyway. That's kind of how it is. Someone could be a gross, shitty 40-year-old man talking about their very real divorce on Gaia Online, or they could be 14 years old and making it all up. You can make a pretty good guess as to which it is, but you'll never know for sure.

I don't know when my brain decided to make this switch but I've noticed myself thinking it about a lot of things and I'm getting worried that someone is going to show me something and I'm going to blurt out "that looks like shit" before remembering that's not how most people use that phrase

My hair is getting pretty long and my bangs have been all in my face at work which sucks because I work in food service so I can't touch my hair/face which means I have to do an emoboy myspace hair flip every 30 seconds, which is not a great look. The other day I was thinking to myself "I wish there was something I could use to like... pin my bangs up and keep them out of my face." Then I realized -- get this -- that already exists! It's called a bobby pin and it was invented in 1899. But then I was like, unconsciously, "oh but that's a girl thing so nvm." Then I said "oops wait who gives a shit" and bought some bobby pins and HALLELUJAH this is so much better.

I'd say twitch. What I've been hearing (someone correct me if I'm wrong) is hitbox kind of started to catch on mainly because people were having some issue with twitch, but now people are going back to twitch because they fixed it. Everything I'm saying might be wrong

Shadow of Mordor could definitely use a better difficulty curve. What I do is a playstyle called IIRC hardcore permadeath? The idea is you only take the required story upgrades, no health/focus upgrades at all, never fast travel without advancing time, and if you die you delete the file and start over. Makes the game way more fun IMO, and having to often run away from fights rather than just throwing your infinite lives at the same Uruk captains until they die makes for a way more interesting narrative (with the add bonus of that sweet Nemesis dialog where they mock you for running away) fruithag, August 23, 2016, 07:16:37 pm

I think when hitbox caught on is when twitch started muting VoDs to crack down on people streaming music, since they can't really do the youtube thing of just funnelling revenue back to the copyright holder. The system had a bunch of issues, like muting in half hour segments rather than specific instances, and false positives on game soundtracks and stock sounds, plus the predictable bunch of people getting pissy that they couldn't stream all the music they wanted. Hitbox didn't worry about that, and also tended to be a little more stable and more helpful, probably just because they didn't have huge streams pressing their servers and huge idiots pressing their support teams, so a lot of people (mostly smaller streamers, I think?) switched, or at least floated the idea of it. A lot came back when their viewers wouldn't obediently follow, and the system has improved a lot anyway.
I haven't used hitbox in a long time, but I've not had any issues with twitch lately, as someone who uses it near daily. Honestly I haven't heard anyone even mention hitbox in probably a year, did you have some particular reason for considering it beyond just checking out all the alternatives?

From everything I've seen, beam.pro (http://beam.pro) is really great, very low latency, though it does have a weird gamification thing where you can 'level up' your account? I've never looked into that side of things too much, but it's a solid streaming platform.

Hitbox is my preferred streaming site just ecause it seems more reliable to me and my shitty Australian internet. Give it a bit of time to buffer and it's smooth as hell, while I think GDQ's the only Twitch stream I've ever been able to watch without ridiculous lag spikes.
Maybe it's who I've watched on both platforms, but it's led me to far prefer Hitbox. That, and the fact darker screens and UIs are just better for watching things and I don't get why no video service I've seen realizes that but Hitbox and Netflix.

Yep! As a left-leaning atheist I'm embarrassed for these guys by association. Also Bill Maher, who isn't right-wing but is a fucking dick. Just, don't kick me out of the left wing, okay? I don't want to hang out with the libertarian atheists, they smell funny.
I'm kind-of surprised more Christians (in particular, don't know much about other belief systems) aren't economically left-leaning, considering the very hard-line approach to money and class that Jesus is said to have taken (freaking out at the moneylenders in the temple, saying that it's harder for a rich man to get into heaven than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, hanging out with and healing the poor all the time, etc.) but whatever, history is weird.

I'm not a Christian or a social conservative, but my dad and stepmother are. They are also very right-leaning economically. The general shape of their thought is that U.S. politics and government are a total disaster, and any money directed from taxes to fixing problems will always end up going to useless government workers and failed solutions. They're both into charity and doing their best to fix a broken world, but they also complain about taxes almost every time I see them.
When I go over to my parents' house Fox News is on the television, and in between commercial breaks my father tells me that he wants to make a ton of money so he can give all of it to the world's poorest people. They're voting for Trump this November.
I have a lot of strong opinions about this, but fundamentally my dad and stepmom are both good people who want to help others. They just have different ideas about how to create a better world.

I realized I've always had sort of unfounded subconscious ideas about the friendships among the members of Wu-Tang Clan and I thought it was stupid and funny so here we go. Here's my Wu-Tang headClanons. I will not be explaining my reasoning behind any of this because, for the most part, there isn't any.
The four closest friends of the group are Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, and ODB (RIP). There's a little friction between Meth and ODB but they're both friends with the best best friends of Wu-Tang, Raekwon and Ghostface, so they just have to deal.
Everyone in Wu-Tang likes Meth and ODB. How could you not?
RZA and GZA are kind of distant for the most part. If Wu-Tang was a class of high school students, RZA would be their coach and GZA would be their teacher. Everyone looks up to them but nobody is super close to them with two exceptions: Inspectah Deck, the star athlete who RZA loves, and Masta Killa, GZA's teacher's pet. To drag this stupid metaphor on even longer, Deck is popular and well-liked for being a cool sports dude, and Masta Killa is kind of a loner who only hangs out with the teacher. Nerd!!!
U-God is just kind of around. Nobody feels strongly about him one way or the other.

My hair is ginger and curly, and when it gets long it tends to hold up a bit, like a saggy afro. When I was a small ginger child, people used to call me names, one of which was Carrot Top. I have known who Carrot Top is for probably at least a decade.
Given all these facts, I am slightly upset with myself that I only realised about an hour ago that people calling me Carrot Top was more than just a standard "haha, orange head" ginger joke.

What exactly the draw in those paparazzi photos of celebrities leaving their apartments or going to the gym? (A thought triggered by this photo of lady gaga (http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/cherubrawk/9666602/102397/102397_600.jpg)).
They're never going to be especially attractive pictures, so I don't think it's for weirdos to beat off to. They're rarely clues to interesting new fashion trends. They're not insights into these people's lives in the way that an invasive photo of them on a date would be. It's not "oh my god Lady Gaga is going to the recording studio, there's new music coming!"
The only people this is of any use to is other paparazzi and stalkers, who then know Lady Gaga is in New York and can be sure to go take photos they will inexplicably sell for silly amounts of money. All we learn is that a famous person went to sleep in a place last night.

For real, help me out here, what's up with this? Why are there so many photos of taylor swift getting in a car? moooo566, September 25, 2016, 05:52:25 pm
Each paparazzo is hunting for unstaged, 'real' photos they can sell to clips. They're usually in public places or whatever because that's when and where the paparazzi have access to celebs to take these photos of them. Some of it is style - here's what famous people wear when they're just trying to go about their day - and some of it is feeding a hunger for more information about peoples' favourite stars. The worst of it is designed to tear apart an 'official' representation of who someone is by catching them not wearing makeup, or in 'ugly' clothes, or kissing someone they're not supposed to kiss, etc, but this is the kind that's the most lucrative so it's also the most popular.
They're never going to be especially attractive pictures, so I don't think it's for weirdos to beat off to.
You might be surprised by how many people fetishize authenticity.

There's a website called VNDB, the Visual Novel Database, and it's absolutely ridiculous. You know how IMDB lets you search for movies based on titles, actors, directors, etc? Imagine if, in addition to that, you could also say "give me all the movies released in 1995, originally in Italian but with English subtitles, featuring male protagonists with long hair and at least one scene involving public urination." That's VNDB. Their tagging system goes so deep with subcategory after subcategory. Let's just look at some examples.
What if you're not looking for a certain type of story, but a certain type of VN? What if you love it when the text is contained in a box at the bottom of the screen (ADV), but don't mind the occasional switch to a fullscreen text box (NVL) as long as it's not for the whole thing? No problem
Presentation -> Text -> ADV -> Brief NVL scenes
Now I know what you're thinking "this is all great, but there's one thing that always bugs me. I can't stand when the main character has no voice actor, but I also don't like having to listen to the main character talk all the time. If only
Presentation -> Sounds and Music -> Voice Acting -> Protagonist with Voice Acting -> Protagonist with Partial Voice Acting
"This is great," you say, "but also I'm gross and weird, and I was wondering if
Sexual Content -> Implementation of Sexual Content -> Internal Exhibition of Sex -> Visible Penetration of Cervix
Jesus christ the sexual content tags get really specific and viscerally upsetting so I'm stopping here. It gets a lot worse. Anyway the whole point of this post is that the anime equivalent AniDB sucks and I wish it was more like VNDB

The more a person's worldview changes the more everything else stays the same.
I first noticed this when I was reading an objectivism forum. This was right after Bioshock came out, and I wanted to see what they thought of it. While I was doing this I read through some of the objectivism forum's other posts, and it turned out that a large section of their userbase consisted of ex-mormons. This seemed really strange to me. I mean, if you've just left an incredibly proscriptive religion then why would you follow that up with membership in one of the most proscriptive secular philosophies ever developed?
But this sort of thing is the norm. I also read philosophy of religion sometimes, and I pay special attention to anyone who has previously held one worldview and then switched sides. I figure people like that can see both perspectives, and their ideas will be worth learning about. And here too, the more a person's worldview changes the more it stays the same
Dan Barker was raised as a very conservative christian and eventually switched worldviews to atheism. Now he writes and performs the same kind of music he grew up with, except about atheism.
On the other side I'm currently reading Edward Feser's The Last Superstition. He started as an atheist philosopher and switched to a very conservative form of Catholicism. So I'm reading his book and all of a sudden:
"The same thing can be said of the New Atheists’ attitude toward the moral views defended by religious believers, including the traditional sexual morality so hated by secularists. That these views can only be regarded as superstitious, without rational foundation, motivated by bigotry, etc., is a familiar enough cliché, and the New Atheists have nothing to add to it – other than Richard Dawkins’s proposal to replace the Ten Commandments with a list that includes “Enjoy your own sex life (as long as it damages no one else).” Combine this with his proposal to replace religious instruction for children with something more progressive, and his weird outrage over the “hysteria” he thinks surrounds the treatment of pedophiles – his own boyhood victimization by a pedophile was, he kindly shares with us, “embarrassing but otherwise harmless” – and you get some truly creepy vibes about the direction in which secularist “values education” might go. (You can forget whatever Father Smith or Sister Mary taught you in parochial school, kids; Uncle Dick is here to tell you what it really means to love each other."
That's the most r/atheism thing that was never posted in r/atheism. Seriously, Feser just made fun of Dawkin's molestation, belittled his feelings on the event, misrepresented his views on pedophilia, and insinuated that Dawkins is himself a molester. The more a person's worldview changes the more everything else stays the same.

I had a conversation about left-wing superheroes last night, and I'm still not sure there are any besides Captain Planet, and if that's a matter of one not being present/visible or if that's just the nature of the genre.
Much of why Captain Planet is left-wing is because his opponents are industrialists and generally anti-environmentalist. If we extend that to others--that a superhero's philosophy is largely defined by their opponents--then we come to Superman, whose iconic opponent is a corporate heavyweight, and you combine that with the fact Superman is necessarily a pro-immigration story to come up with a pretty good case. ...But you still really can't dismiss the fact that Superman is, right down to his name, an Aryan ubermesch, so you can't really stand by him as one. And of course, his buddy Batman is fascist as hell.
The other obvious choice is the X-Men, given they are a civil rights allegory and are typically primarily fighting for acceptance. That's a solid pick, especially when you recall that Professor X was classically based on Martin Luther King. ...But then you take into account that their classic opponent is Magneto and the Brotherhood of Mutants, who are classically based on Malcolm X's side of the civil rights conflict, and it falls apart again. The X-Men are the proverbial Good Ones, the members of a minority that anti-progressives point at and say 'see they're not ALL bad' while simultaneously calling for suppression based on the actions of the proverbial Bad Ones. The Brotherhood are the ones actually getting angry and fighting for change and getting vilified for it (because there's no nice way to do that), while the X-Men are either just sitting and waiting for society to accept them or just accepting that they won't and being good to the rest of humanity anyway. Individual X-Men stories can be left-wing, for sure, but I think the group as a whole can't narratively break from that 'Good Minorities' mold enough to be a good example of left-wing superheroes.
Then I went back to my own attempts, the characters I RPed as on City of Heroes. Being based on me on some level, and me being pretty left-wing, I could possibly use them as a basis... but then I realized that the ones closest to me and that I mostly associated with were villains. The one I take my username from was tired of society valuing money and muscle over intelligent reasoning, and ultimately decided they could only fix those problems by breaking it and rebuilding; a smash-the-state Marxist from a different direction. Another was marked as a villain because they took swings at white-collar crime, and just rolled with the fact this made them an outlaw.
I still have no idea as to if an answer to 'what's a left-wing superhero' is cleanly possible.

Captain America is basically a capital-D new deal Democrat, if you think that counts. He's the son of a poor Irish immigrant family, born during the great depression, and created and written by a couple of jewish writers/artists as an appeal to the US to stand up to Hitler. There was actually going to be a bit in the 2012 Avengers where he talks about health care and social assistance in the modern world, but it ended up getting cut.

Green Arrow is supposed to be explicitly a socialist, cause he's based on Robin Hood, see. How true this is is up to the writer, though. Sometimes he just talks a lot of shit, sometimes he's shown to be a liberal mayor who goes out of his way to help the poor. He's not a great example, though, because as a superhero his actions aren't generally very liberal.
The issue here is that vigilantism, and taking the law into your own hands, is more-or-less an inherently conservative act, and the way that superheroes typically portray it is doubly-so. The idea that some people are just inherently bad and will continue to be bad is very conservative, the idea that the best way to deal with problematic people is to continue to throw violence at them forever is fascist. Some of the better Batman stories acknowledge this: how much of a good guy is he really, is he causing some of the problems he's trying to solve by being violent, how different is he from the people he goes after, etc. etc.
I'd say, of the big name superheroes, the most actually liberal one I can think of is the Flash. Again, like with all superhero things, this all depends on who is doing the writing (and also which Flash it is, I guess.) When the Flash is written well, though, he's got an underlying belief in the humanity of his foes, and although he's always ready to solve the problem by punching it or running really fast around it, he almost always tries to help them or talk it out with them first. In various groups, Flash also tends to be the hero who stops the other heroes from going too far. This scene is (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJq2PAI-Fxc) maybe the most flash scene ever, but it's also, to me, expressing a pretty liberal way of how to deal with supervillains: by properly finding out what the underlying issue is (in this case: he has a mental disorder) and solving it (making him realize he needs help) and even working together with the villain to come to a solution (trusting him to turn himself in).
He's still using his powers to engage in actions typically reserved for state actors, and again, solving problems by punching dudes is an inherently conservative action, so it's not like he's a perfect liberal or anything, Still, Flash ends up doing it about as liberally as possible, probably as a result of him generally being written to fill a lighthearted tone in comparison to other heroes.

What are you looking for in a superhero to make them left/right wing? The format (also the business model and target audience) doesn't really create huge amounts of space for evangelising in either direction. Especially in the comic book format, which isn't remotely information-dense, there's a pretty limited amount you can do.
People writing whole books, films and TV shows devoted to political issues have trouble. When you're levering that into a story that's got to be 50% fight scene, there's no chance. Honestly, it's probably better that way. I don't think it's possible to put these important, but not exciting, social issues into a big Hollywood spectacle without it just ending up incredibly clumsy at best and insulting/offensive at worst. For what it's worth, I do think the X-Men deserve credit as at least attempting to be a left-leaning group, even if they are a bit clumsily presented. Regardless of their origins, I don't think they should be cast out for presenting the problematic elements of minorities and integration.
There's a long way to go still, but I also think it's important to acknowledge there are improvements, at least in conception if not in story writing. I can't speak for DC, since I've never really gotten into any of their characters, but there is a black Spiderman and Ms Marvel is a young muslim woman. The MCU has War Machine, Falcon and Black Panther so it's no longer a big old party of white dudes. A lot of the worst example of Liefeldian-style anatomy is in the past, and I do think comics are, at least slightly, less ridiculous about boobs and butts and (the lack of) everything in between, as well as the outfits covering it.
tl;dr I do think superhero concepts are, on the whole, attempting improvement, with some success. Beyond the general idea of vigilantism, I don't really see any of the actual characters and storylines as leaning much in either direction, and while it needs to be discussed somewhere, I'm not sure superheroes make particularly good background for political discourse within the writing.

Post by: Cleretic on October 24, 2016, 02:19:16 am
I'm talking more ideologically, and usually more subtext than anything. I mean, consider Batman; for all the good he may or may not do, his approach to things is heavily vigilante and might-makes-right, often with a bit of police state methodology in there too depending on the story (many of the Batman movies made a thing of this, particularly Nolan's). On top of that recall that many of the Gotham rogues gallery consists of mental patients, and I think we can agree that Bruce Wayne probably votes Republican. Iron Man has much the same stuff going on, only to a slightly lesser degree. I can agree that generally comics are getting more progressive, but the debate that night was specifically more on policy and ideology of individual characters, not about the medium as a whole aside from the assertion that the inherent vigilanteism of the superhero genre starts it off in that particular political realm.
I like Frank West's suggestion of The Flash, though. I'm not as familiar with him as I am with some others, but what I do recall about him is his ability and willingness to use his powers in very constructive, helpful and non-violent ways that suggest he's both willing and able to think like that. The worst I know of him doing is turning Central City into a police state in Kingdom Come by infinitely patrolling at top speed, but even that isn't that bad, especially given what else happened in Kingdom Come. Conceptually he's very politically agnostic (especially compared to certain other members of the League), but as deeds and demeanor go he's pretty solid as a pick.
Spider-Man could possibly be a good choice too for a lot of the same metrics, but I know even less about his stuff (and what I do know doesn't help; I don't think the act of giving birth to yourself fits on the political spectrum).

I do know quite a bit about Spider-man and I can make the case for him as a liberal superhero. Peter Parker as Spider-Man in particular started out as a decidedly liberal superhero before J. Michael Straczynski (JMS) took on the character. Before JMS came along Spider-man was a character with scientific basis for his powers and a scientific background. Problems would arise that appeared to be magical in nature and he would reveal their humble scientific origins then defeat them using science. Superstitious New Yorkers at large might hear about a monster in the sewers or a goblin flying around Queens but Spider-man was brave enough to go out and reveal a madman in a mask or a scientific experiment gone wrong. He would then invariably get his butt kicked, go back to his lab and cook up some solution using science.
Spider-man runs counter to the usual binary morality and conservative vigilantism. Most of his rogues gallery start out as regular people. Some may have a grievance or character flaw, but most are not characteristically evil, most of them are just regular, good people before something happens to them, mostly outside their control and they do what they think is necessary to put things right. Spider-man believes it is his responsibility to help these "villains" by removing or dealing with the catalyst behind the criminal behavior then he makes sure they can be rehabilitated. The most important thing being that most of them can be rehabilitated.
The best examples of Spider-man's attitude towards morality and criminal behavior are Sandman and Venom. In Spider-man's encounters with Sandman he learns of his troubled past and works with Sandman to set things right. Thus Spider-man's faith in humanity is rewarded. Venom on the other hand is manipulated by an alien entity and despite his best efforts is unable to let go of his desire for power and/or revenge. Thus Spider-man's faith is betrayed.
JMS however came along and fucked all that shit up by making Spider-man magical and giving him metaphysical villains. Suddenly Spider-man was a metaphysical solution for what was often a scientific problem in his old rogues gallery. So Spider-man didn't just use his faith to guide him towards the correct solution but faith was all he needed to be successful i.e. if he believed in the Spider God hard enough he could escape an impossible situation.
Overall DC definitely leans more to the right while Marvel leans more to the left, politically speaking. There are a few stand outs here and there but this mostly is due to the creators behind the characters and the company having differing views of the world. However individual characters will vacillate politically depending who writes them and due to influence of the editorial staff. So when you break out a particular hero you have to take a story arc, look at who is writing and or drawing it and determine what they are trying to communicate, or are exhibiting unintentionally, using the template of the character. For example Green Arrow was created by the cynical and conservative editorial staff of DC as a stand in for Batman, but he was re-imagined as a bleeding heart liberal in the 1960s by Dennis O'Neil.
TLDR Spider-man has a background in science and believes in criminal rehabilitation so there's a lot for a left leaning reader to latch onto (if you ignore JMS's run as writer). However most characters evolve due to changing creative and editorial staff. So take the perceived political leanings of characters with a grain of salt, because back in the swingin 60's even batman was portrayed like a bleeding heart liberal.

A lot of people keep booze in their desk at the office. The engineers have even started a communal beer fridge (as long as you contribute). No one at leadership has complained. Not sure if that is a good thing, or at least a good thing to be enjoyed until someone cracks down on it.
I put some Baileys in it. It's that time of year, after all. It's good in hot cocoa.

All of my jobs have involved working in kitchens, so having booze on hand isn't too unusual for me. After a particularly stressful night cooking orders, tasting a ice cold beer that's been kept in the freezer for an hour is the sweetest taste. I used to work at a pub restaurant where the people working in the kitchen were entitled to a free pint from the bar staff, but this got stopped after too many chefs took the opportunity to order several more pints. There's always at least person who takes a mile when given an inch.
BTW what kind of Baileys? Plain is nice, but I love the hazelnut flavour.

My folks actually used a box/chest on our nightstand when we were kids; you put the tooth in or on the box, and the Tooth Fairy would leave your reward in the box during the night. My little brother was extra lucky; by the time he started losing teeth, my mom was a veteran, crafty tooth fairy, and sewed him a little pillow with a pocket in it. Put tooth in pocket, put pillow on nightstand, check pocket in morning for reward.
It also helped alleviate our fears, as kids, of accidentally rolling over and squashing the tooth fairy in our sleep. XP Maybe a strategy like that will help!

My parents would leave a pound coin under our pillow in exchange for a tooth. Because of this tradition, my parents once left an IOU note under my brother's pillow because they realised too late that they couldn't find a pound to leave under the pillow.

A few Christmases ago my mum bought me a fake cat. It's not actually stuffed or anything, but it looks very much like it could be. It's profoundly creepy and terrifying, so after thanking her with total insincerity I put it at the back of a wardrobe in my parents' house, went home to London and forgot all about it. When I came to visit again a few months later, I found it on my bed. There was a brief moment of scrabbling fear, but then I chucked it in a different wardrobe and went about my day. That night, when I went to bed, it was sitting on my pillow. The same thing happened the next night, and the next, and every night for the rest of my stay, despite my increasingly elaborate attempts to hide it. This has been going on for several years, including this Christmas. I'm back in London now, but for all I know it could be sitting on my bed right now. It probably is. I assume it's my mum who keeps putting it there, although I've never caught her in the act (believe me, I've tried) and we've never mentioned it. The other possibility is that it's the cat, but I'd rather not consider that.

I've put way too much thought into what superpower I'd want, and figured out that just going by what fictional characters have them telekinesis is the best. It's really versatile and powerful, but doesn't really have any in-built downsides.
The only power I'd prefer over that is shapeshifting, but that's always got weird fucking stipulations and limitations that take away all the fun. I don't want to become a shapeshifter only to find out I can only shapeshift into domesticated animals, or bodies of water, or people named Casey.

I've recently been revisiting one of my all-time favorite albums, HLLLYH by The Mae Shi. It's a weird sort of experimental, hyperactive, noisy synth punk concept album with a lot of recurring Old Testament imagery throughout, and in my opinion it's criminally underappreciated. Here's a couple of my favorite songs from it:
Pwnd (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjmgPKR6G-Q), a song about God coming to earth and fucking shit up
Boys in the Attic (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIpltvDQ5qU), the Punkest song on the album
Young Marks (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cu3OcHCaAo), possibly the weirdest use of auto-tune I've ever heard
Anyway I've been a huge fan of this album for a long time now but never understood what the name was supposed to be, thinking maybe the letters stood for something? and then it suddenly clicked that it wasn't an acronym or anything, it's a series of letters that can be read as both HALLELUJAH and HELL YEAH. God damn what a perfect title for an album that is a) full of religious symbolism and b) super high-energy and fucking rocks
Shout out to The Mae Shi, rest in peace, I'll never forget you

I only know one language and that's pathetic. So I decided to learn a second language and chose Spanish because it's spoken in a large number of countries. And I hate it. It's close enough to English that everything sounds like a pig-latin attempt at English. And when I go to Spanish-speaking YouTube it's mostly people fighting on talk shows. To be fair, the talk-show fights are a lot better than the ones on US television; I went in expecting standard slap-fests and saw a lot of great hip-throws. To be more fair, I wouldn't want someone from a Spanish-speaking country to log onto YouTube and judge my culture by pewdiepie.
But Spanish isn't working for me. I need a new second language and South-East Asian cultures are too authoritarian for my tastes. Is there anything you'd recommend?

If you want a language with grammar that is very different from English (and is also easy to find material for), might I recommend Turkish? It's on Duolingo, for one thing. Another source that I've used is http://turkishlanguage.co.uk, which gives a pretty good overview of Turkish grammar.

Someone at work was looking for a rubber glove and the whole day I was thinking about song parodies about rubber gloves.
(to the tune of "The One I Love" by R.E.M.)
This one goes out to my rubber glove. This one goes to the left and right. A double prop to protect me from grime. This one goes out to my rubber gloves.
Drier!
(to the tune of "Pour Some Sugar On Me" by Def Lappard)
CHORUS Pour some acid on me. Use a rubber glove. Pour some acid on me. Come on and burn me up. Pour some acid on me Burning feeling's not enough
Highly corrosive, dissolve my skin Eat away my epidermis.
(to the tune of "Stop! In the e of Love" by The Supremes)
Stop! Use a rubber glove. Before you remove my heart.
I had more (like for "Tainted Love", "All You Need Is Love" and "Comfortably Numb", et al) but they were rehashes of the same lyrics.

There's a new dub coming soon if I remember right. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be on Crunchyroll or something when it comes out. I think it'll cover Parts 1-3. There's already a dub for Parts 1&2, but it's by a different studio, so voice actors in Part 3 will be different and whatever.

There's a semi-organized effort by racists and mras and etc. to search twitter for specific keywords and then shout at the person using them as much as possible. They're literally using the search engine, cause it happens to accounts with no retweets or attention, so they're probably finding you actually posting feminist stuff frequently and following automatically, to make their harrassment easier.

Nah, you did the right thing. If you hadn't helped, it probably would have gotten picked off by whatever your local predators are (cats, raptors, etc.), not exactly a peaceful death. Age and time of year is important though; if it's a young bird in spring (hatch year birds can look surprisingly adult, depending on the species), it could just be learning to fly, in which case it's best to leave it alone.

I found a male lesser goldfinch huddled against the railroad tracks while on a walk today. There was nothing obviously wrong with it except that it was there on the ground and not fleeing. I brought it to a wildlife rescue place and they said I could call tomorrow to see how it was doing. It's funny. They just assume you're gonna be kinda attached to the animal you brought in.
Here's a picture of one because they are cute and so very tiny. (https://download.ams.birds.cornell.edu/api/v1/asset/24950991)
I do second guess myself every time I try helping an animal, though, cause I don't want to disturb a peaceful death or stress it out and cause it to fair worse. ): Tose the Handsome Anime Boy, February 19, 2017, 01:19:45 am

On a lighter note to my post in the 'strategic jargon' thread, because it doesn't deserve to be derailed by my light-hearted fantasy-elaborations: I often amuse myself by trying to figure out what kind of villainous entity various large companies would be.
Amazon is absolutely 'death ray evil', like a Bond villain or a Lex Luthor thing where they're just thinly-veiling some evil scheme. Google and Apple are both Deus Ex-esque 'conspiracy cyberpunk' that's ubiquitous and innocent until they flip the 'take over the world' switch. eBay I can't see as anything high-level, but would be complicit in black-market dealings and taken down by some street-level hero like Daredevil. Nintendo is obviously the friendly company targeting kids for some nefarious-but-soft plan in a kid-focused TV show or movie, but that's so clear you wouldn't even have to make any changes.

Hi Lyft Driver!
It sure is weird that you chose birth control methods as a topic of conversation, but I guess I can see how we got here. We started out talking about kids and... well, it didn't naturally make it's way there, when I think about it. Kids to birth control is a hard jump, and I think you brought up the kid thing.
Anyway, I'm not squeamish and I am polite, so god damn it I am gonna have this conversation with you, but I am going to talk about it in the abstract. "Yes, these various methods exist, one might be interested in trying this particular method." But, if we're going down this fucking road, Lyft driver, you're gonna need to heed one very simple rule: Never ask me
“What does it feel like?”
And when I demure from this line of questioning with something fairly explicit, such as "I don't want to talk about that." (because in addition to everything else it isn't even noon yet), this is not a more acceptable followup:
“But does it feel good?”
It's too bad I have to wait for the ride to be over before I can rate you, but here we go: [star] [star] [empty] [empty] [empty]
...Because I mean, you didn't make me hold your sandwich like Healslime's driver did.

The Nintendo Switch's carts have been specifically engineered to taste terrible, to make sure no child swallows one. This was a deliberate decision and outcome, the entire implied process is hilarious to me.
This was either specifically in a design doc somewhere, and/or came up in a meeting and invoked very involved discussions about how bad it should taste, how it should be incorporated into the manufacturing process, all that. Presumably, for at least a week, this was somebody's primary job and task. They came to work, every day, to work out--either through meticulous selection or engineering--the specifically worst-tasting substance they could coat the Switch's games in, which was also not dangerous to the console (or presumably for people ingesting it). They probably went through several candidates, in fact.

so my boss mentioned at some point in the past that a standard strategy for handling layoffs is to layoff the people that you feel are going to land a new job the easiest.
consequently the conclusion that one has to reach is that a typical response to layoffs is an overall lowering of the quality of work performed for a company.

I can't stop thinking about that Real Superman guy, his use of logic is fascinating.
Most of the time he claims A is B Because.... , and then rephrases the statement. But I'm most interested that he said "Once you find out Killer Croc is Eminem, it all becomes clear" or something. He has no idea why he thinks A is B, but when he makes that epiphany, he desperately forms a correlation. Then sometimes he leads on from epiphanies to fill in new characters, like Trump has to be Gorilla Grodd because Ivanka is some other comic lady. He's got the idea that if he discovers enough points on the network, he can then deduce who the real Superman is. Then he talks about Spoilers, despite it being a planned reality show and the fact it's real life. He also doesn't seem to understand secret identities, he says someone is both the real Iron Man AND Tony Stark, and doesn't even consider Batman when talking about Kanye being Bruce Wayne. It's a crystal clear look at the schizophrenic mind but his actual views on pop culture are even nuttier. Why's he worried about spoiling who the Real Santa Claus is but not Lex Luthor.
And the only thing he wants to do with the knowledge that all fiction ever is a parallel universe is make a TV show.
Also Jimmy Fallon is Ganondorf

I'm weirded out by how consistent a response I get when I mention the two names I'm torn between changing mine to. Whenever I say it's between Ashleigh or Claire, I've had people from totally different cities, states, and even countries voice the same opinion: Every Claire they've met is really nice, while any Ashleighs they know generally aren't.
I'm coming to the conclusion that all the Claires in the world are either genuinely cool people without fail, or are setting up slander ops against all the world's Ashleighs. Or at least have a way better PR team.

Ashleigh/Ashley used to be one of the most popular girls' names in the US in the late 80's to early 90's, so people tend to know way more of them than Claires, and people tend to remember unpleasant people, and if there just are more with that name, there's a higher chance they'd remember someone with that name they didn't like.

You can choose from multiple lines of subscriptions depending on who you want to murder: the Rich, the Poor, people with certain political preferences, etc. Comes with a touch screen for automatic use and cleaning.

Yeah. I wrote stuff about video games because I wanted to try it, not because I thought anyone would want to read it. It was a fun exercise all the same. Actually I think I also wanted a break form writing strictly for school during my last year of college...
But if you have the will to do it, then may as well go for it.

Not in Riverdale! In Riverdale he was generally more interested in writing and mysteries than relationships until he accidentally started dating Betty and realized he liked how that felt. He might still be asexual, but he's definitely romantically-capable.
Riverdale started off with Archie having an affair with Ms. Grundy, though, so it's not exactly remaining faithful to the canon.

They're the Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch in this scenario, where the rights to specifically "Kenan & Kel" are still held by SNL and Ben Stiller, respectively, who team up to try to make their own rival movie franchise, so they can only refer to the characters by their Good Burger character names.
(If you're wondering how Ben Stiller got the rights to Kel's name, he actually had a clause in the Mystery Men contract that required all his co-stars to sign over their likenesses to him.)

Title: Do you think El-P was talking about Huskar in his song EMG?
Post by: Spooks on May 30, 2017, 03:24:34 pm
Do you think El-P was talking about Huskar in his song EMG?
The song "EMG" from El-P's album "I'll Sleep When You're Dead" contains the following lyrics:
"Is my mommy in heaven? Well, she's definitely not here Now run away and go play with this hatchet and flaming spear"
I think there's a high chance the lyrics here refer to the Dota 2 hero, Huskar, who is a durable carry and an initiator. His second ability, Flaming Spears, allows him to deal greater damage at the expense of his own health. This also follows back to the chorus of the song "Everything must go" as Huskar's life is draining constantly if he keeps Flaming Spears on Autocast.
The reference to hatchets is probably to another Dota 2 hero, Troll Warlord, who uses twin hatches to attack and whose species is "Troll" just like Huskar.
If this isn't proof enough, the line "Get on some butterfly to the fire shit" from the chorus is definitely a reference to the in-game item Butterfly, which is core to Huskar's build.
I assume the part about the mother is a little tongue in cheek as I assume nobody's mother would approve of them playing Dota 2, a highly addictive game with a toxic community.

I'm the ultimate Hangover fan. There's nothing I love more than waking up in a ditch somewhere near Moorabin with a splitting pain in my skull that I need to treat. Every chance I get I go whole hog in curing my hangover. I leave behind the lady in my bed and stagger into the kitchen. Then I gather a bunch of bullshit from the cupboards. Worcestershire sauce, pepper, apple cider vinegar, two oysters, a Ostritch Egg and some shitty brandy. I shake them together in that Martini thing and pour it into a pint mug. I then take my Ritual Blade and carve a glyph into the palm of my hand. Blood, still tainted with the regrets and Carlton Draught I dragged from yesterday, oozes into my awful brew. Everything has been stained a rusty brown. I dedicate the cure to the True Ancient One, Ashurnibabal, and let the liquid slither down my throat. The cacophony of overwhelming flavours no longer excites or revolts me. I feel only a stagnant calm. Another portion of my soul has been consumed. The pain and suffering of mortality subsides as Ashurnibabal grows in strength. It feeds off of me as I feed off the shitty omelette batter I crave. I am becoming little more than a thrall of this Cosmic Truth. Is the lady in my bed my wife, or just a stranger? Is there any difference any more? I slice up some fatty bacon and fry it in a pan with some mushrooms

Accidentally slapped journeyman faguar. Panic kissed to make up for it. In my haste, I was unable to tell if that tender kiss returned what I so indiscriminately slapped away. In any case, I deserve punishment for my wanton mouse clicks. Slap me.

"Go render into help!" Joel shout to Ellie and Ellie go and pick survivor up. "What is your name?" Ellie renders question to Giorgio. "My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everybody calls me Giorgio." Giorgio said and they make a greeting. Suddenly clickers! All survivors of afraid as surround by clickers and about to die. Clicker makes a click. "Is good to make a clicking!" Giorgio shout, so he put a click on the 24 track which then was synced to the Moog Modular. Suddenly robots! Robots use a click and they danube into a sound of the future. Robots transport everyone into the future, where no more of zombies and clickers, but only sound of the future. Joel and Ellie saved.

in the cars universe they have a terrible yet popular series of movies about a world inhabited by their Central nervous systems running around independently, sometimes possessing lobotomised chassis' to get around and prolong their twisted parody of life. The Cars often theorise that they reproduce in some sort of nightmare factory, composed of the alien material 'flesh' and 'bone'. The Truth is far stranger

Dragon Quest, for being a series that tries to appeal to children, has some harmonically, rhythmically and melodically complex stuff, and it's almost all the stuff that has to do with the bad guys and fighting, while the stuff to do with the good guys is generally more according to earlier classical music conventions. It's a really cool design choice and only recently I've come to appreciate how good the sound design is

I'm usually pretty 'meh' about Oreos in general, but these are damn fantastic. Just the right combo of sour and a tiny bit salty. A coworker bought the fireworks ones which are interesting, but you might as well by a bag of pop rocks and cram that in your mouth with some regular Oreos.

That's neither how I talk, nor how I want to talk, and it's a very specific intonation that I don't deviate from. So it had to come from somewhere, but where?
Then I realized it's from Bomberman 64, and now I feel kinda weird.

Muhammad Li should be a very common name but there aren't very many at all! nor are there many Li Muhans. Perhaps since there's at least a couple, they should be Some Greatests (as Muhammad *A*li was The).
a damsel with a dulcimer, in a vision once I saw; she was an Abyssinian maid, and on her dulcimer she played, singing "You're my wonderwall". Could I ignite within me her symphony and song to such deep delight 'twould win me and with music loud and long, I would build that dome in air (that sunny dome! Those caves of ice!) and all who heard would see them there, and all would cry beware, beware! those flashing eyes, and floating hair, guard a circle round her thrice, for she on honeydew hath fed, and drunk the almond milk of paradise.

I'm watching the Top Gear Africa special where they try to find the source of the Nile and I know they exaggerate a lot, but I've been to Uganda and they're pretty fucking bang on what it's like to travel there. I've actually pretty much done the exact journey they did, Kampala to Fort Portal to Lake Edward through the tea plantations, the great roads and the shitty, shitty roads. Here are my Thoughts as I watch, because I want to talk about Uganda and I think they deserve some credit.
Kampala really does take most of a day to drive through and there really are that many of those vans, which are like a cross between a taxi and a bus - they'll go where you want, but you'll probably pick up other people on the way. You really can buy basically everything, including a million bananas for way less money than you think. I think the bit where Jeremy says "is this a chair leg," he's buying sugar cane. It's way too fibrous to eat but you can chew on it and the sugar will come out, which is okay until you're just left with a big inedible lump of fibres that burn your throat until you spit it out of the window. They give it to children as snacks for school.
The long distance roads are fantastic, although in my experience they were actually mostly built by the Chinese, and not, as suggested on the programme, the Swiss. As I understand it, it was part of the deal in return for mining rights. They're really good, although I did get stuck in quite a lot of roadworks while they were widening the roads.
As demonstrated, the speedbumps are perpetual (I think my driver said there were about 100/hour on the drive between Kampala and Kasese, where I stayed). They were also fucking huge. When you get off those main roads, as demonstrated, the roads are all on a spectrum between reasonably flat tracks to impassable because they're basically just muddy rivers alongside a 40 meter drop, via "more pothole than road."
Everywhere they stopped seems to be pretty authentic too. Top Gear might be a bunch of dickheads doing dumb shit, but they represented their subject with a level of accuracy that suprised and pleased me. There's basically nothing about this which I'm finding to be particularly misleading.
Supplemental thought: yep, every other building really is painted entirely yellow with MTN MOBILE MONEY written on it in big letters. Mobile phones are really big there - they kind of skipped computers entirely, and while the prices aren't much cheaper (I worked it out and I'd barely save anything by buying an iPhone there rather than here, maybe £100 or so at most) they have a huge supply of non-smart-phones that you can pick up for like £5-10. Pay as you go is big and you can buy top ups at any of those yellow buildings (or you have to find the rare red AirTel building if for some reason you don't go with MTN).

this is fascinating. They're a sexuality oriented towards themselves, but they represent this with a persona or sparkledog that's different from that. I think in a lot of cases they're creating autosexual characters because they want to be representative of a possible identity rather than as a strictly personal thing, but still. I think it's mostly incompatible with depression so it's not going to have much of an online presence.

I don't know if there's enough basic normies here for a pop music thread in the music forum so I've come here to spread my opinion that Taylor Swift's new single is a fucking terrible load of shit. It starts out okay, basically like something that could have slipped in as one of 1989's less remarkable songs, but then that chorus hits. The one inexplicably following I'm So Sexy of all things, where she just repeats the same line a bunch without any real respect for all the things that make music music. Oh my god it's so bad. Then we slide into the shitty insults and the unbelievably cringy Old Taylor Is Dead bit. Witness was such a miserable flop that all she really needed to do to "win" the Katy Perry beef was to release something that was actually listenable and she didn't even manage that, like she had to actually try and fuck up that bad.
It's a shitty song and I'm hugely disappointed, but what gets me more than anything else is the concept. The idea that she's somehow trying to own the snake persona and be a bad bitch but at the same time needing to remind you how she was wronged, how it's the other guy's fault, Kanye made me do this you guys. It just feels a whole lot like that time when I was fifteen and lonely and I thought "Oh yeah I guess the world WANTS me to be a shutin nerd, I'm gonna watch My Little Pony because somehow fuck you" like the correct response to any of this dumb bullshit is to go all in. Like, she saw she was losing the moral high ground after the Famous thing and decided the best thing to do was to double down and be a bitch, I guess in the hope that much like politics, whoever can talk more shit will win and who really gives a shit about anyone who isn't either loving the mess or so devoted they'll literally refuse to believe you could possibly have done the wrong thing.
What's more, even if the damage control people are tellign the truth when they say releasing the album introduced with a Kanye diss track on the 10th anniversary of his mother's death, that's still a hugely stupid way to make yourself look like a garbage person. Fucking change it you dumbfucks. If it's intentional it's awful and if it's unintentional then it's stupid and neither of those are good looks.
Part of me hopes this will be like Shake It Off and turn out not to be representative of the quality/style of the full album, but even as a huge Swiftie apologist I'm having trouble finding anything good to say about this. She was always supposed to be a nice one who just wanted to have a wholesome happy time. Every part of this is so unlike everything that made me fall in love with her work in the first place. The song itself and all the context around it just feels like a mountain of huge mistakes that only serve to drain every ounce of good will I've built up towards her.
I could forgive most of it if it was at least a good song but honestly she's got a great voice and has shown to be a good songwriter and neither of those things showed up here.

I bartendered last night at some Dad's 50th birthday and the thrust of the event was that they hired a cover band but the birthday dad did the singing while insanely plastered. The failed attempts to sing Living On a Prayer because he kept trying to make up lyrics about "Johnny Had a 6 Inch Co-ock" will never leave my brain. I wish I didn't serve him tequila shots, although I do kinda respect the total Power Move the whole thing was.

When you learn about color mixing in kindergarten, like 'red+blue=purple' or 'yellow+blue=green', that doesn't really mean anything about the colors themselves, or the things that are making the colors, it's teaching about a quirk of the human eye, that two colors at once will light up your photoreceptors in the same way that another color would. But I mean, your body has temperature sensors that detect 'cold' and 'warm', and when both of those sensors light up at once, you feel 'hot', but I wouldn't say that 'cold+warm=hot' in the same way you might say 'red+blue=purple'.
What would it be like to perceive a red+blue thing as simultaneously red and blue, and not as purple?

Almost every month, Cosmopolitan publishes a list of 10 or 24 or 101 or 38 "hot" "new" sex tips. I took a quick look at the recent covers, and I'd estimate that every year they're putting out 300 sex tips. If they've been at this since the late '90s or so (I actually wasn't able to get a good idea of when they started printing these articles) then we are looking at 5000-6000 sex tips, almost all of which are probably very bad (https://www.buzzfeed.com/lukelewis/23-truly-terrible-sex-tips?utm_term=.ex1JOQeXy#.uk5axzgNk).

I've started genuinely appreciating AVGN videos again. There's a sort of weird, earnest charm to them, and his recent stuff shows how much he's developed since his early days. This recent one he did for halloween was pretty good. His side project, Board James, was also really interesting and surprisingly funny for how dark it got. He's very passionate about these kinds of videos, and it shows. I've always loved internet reviews with a lot of passion put into them. My favourite series of youtube videos to this day is Dark Cloud Comedic Review by Pattythedog615. A lot of care and passion went into making those videos, and while they're not the most impressive or original videos I've ever seen, they have this great wholesome sense of humour and they're a great window into late 2000's early 2010's youtube. It's very clearly just a guy reviewing a game he really liked and putting whatever he personally thought would be funny into the videos, so it's really very personable and charming. I recommend anyone watching them if they wanna see what I mean.

Nah, the funniest scene in the series is the one where he's trying to do a three-point turn in a narrow corridor.
Or maybe that's just the one I found most relatable.

Dear GAME DEVELOPERS, enough with the DAD GAMES. I don't want to play as a DAD, I don't have KIDS! Not everyone has kids! But you know what? Everyone has parents! How about some CHILD GAMES, huh? What if, in L.A. Noire for instance, it was YOUR MOM that GOT FINGERED in the precinct? It would be fun. Think about it.

I have the same thing!! Most of my dreams are just me walking around with a friend. Sometimes I'll even browse the Internet for a bit and do some chores.
It can take me a full hour on a slow day to "remember" what was and wasn't a dream.

I may have used this phrase incorrectly.

Its like linked to that person and their account? I'm sorry if that doesn't make much sense.

I've been trying to figure out the geopolitical situation of Mario's world for a while now.
The Goombas seem to be an overthrown and subjugated nation, the Yoshis are a native tribal society that the Mushroom Kingdom pretends to respect but constantly mistreats, the Bob-Ombs are surprisingly democratic when peaceful but overly inclined to wage war for no reason, Bowser is the leader of a dictatorial nearby nation-state that has radicalist support from some marginalized minorities in the Mushroom Kingdom's borders. The Shy Guys are definitely a paramilitary organization beholden to nobody.
The fact that Odyssey proves that Peach (although perhaps not Mario) is likely a native of the Metro Kingdom halfway across the world clearly factors in, but I'm not sure how.

Ever since I started learning about phonology and grammar I've had to try really hard not to be insufferable about telling people the things I know
I had an argument with my sister last week when she wouldn't accept that the "Ng" in "Nguyen" was the ŋ sound
And then earlier today on here I saw someone make a joke using IPA transcription and in one two syllable word they didn't separate the two syllables, and then in the other they did but they didn't follow the maximal onset principle
Why are such unimportant things so annoying to me
It's not even that other people don't know about it that annoys me it's that I have to constantly restrain myself from bringing it up because no one fucking cares

I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the cuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my cucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, cucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re cucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your cucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re cucking dead, kiddo.

Bitcoin cost me my marriage is a good example: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7m15em/after_9_years_together_bitcoin_has_cost_me_my/ It is partly tragic because this guy ruins his family's financial situation but also hilariously moronic because he gets upset that his marriage falls apart after he invests a hundred thousand dollars into something his wife explicitly forbade him to. I ended up searching the phrase "ruined my marriage" on reddit, and this genuinely seems like it might be a good concept for a doc. There's a lot of variety here, as people have blamed everything from call of duty nazi zombies to punching their mother in law in the face for ruining their marriage.

It was some serious proto-MRA trash about a dystopian matriarchal society where all men were second-class citizens and were strictly forbidden from sex. Like for real had a graphic scene with the main character masturbating with a "black box" so the lady police wouldn't know.

Well Lemon, I was a turbo awkward goober when I was in high school, so I said it was interesting and smiled my way through the conversation. The reading itself was vaguely uncomfortable and bad in a way I couldn't describe at the time, but I thought that was because I was probably wrong and just didn't read enough dystopian fiction to make a comment. I distinctly remember him asking me if I got the metaphor when the main character walking down a narrow, moist red hall to approach the matriarch council. He was one of the nerdy teachers in school, and when you're a teen (and an idiot), that holds a lot of value. He lent me Babylon 5, but he also lent me Y: The Last Man, which should have been a real red flag there. Looking back as an adult, it's kinda a terrifying insight to how teacher-student abuse happens, and how that power and authority makes you a real piece of shit in that situation.
I also wonder if I still have the word file somewhere.

I was at school and I was thinking about what if I wanted to teach in Asia as a career, and somehow that train of thought led me to "I have to look up and see whether there's an /r/gaijin once I get home". At first I was expecting just a bunch of shitposts about how it's not like how my japanese animes said it was, but then I thought about it more and I realized it might be a decent support network for foreigners living in Japan, as, to my understanding, it can be a very difficult and at times unfriendly society to acclimate to. Unfortunately it is just shitposts including videos of people eating japanese snack food and going "oooh woooow it's not the same as this country i live in several thousand miles away" and another one of someone getting a wild deer drunk. It looks like /r/japanlife is a better subreddit for what I was hoping for, but even that has a thread asking for good places to listen to "anime music". I'm scared of traveling and I don't know how well I'd actually do in the country even if I do learn the language or how well I'd do on my own, but I'd like to teach English there. There are other people talking about this goal in the japanlife subreddit, but japan as a society can be very xenophobic from what I've heard and I want to teach students that foreigners aren't people you need to be scared or distrustful of. I don't know. It's 1:30 am and I haven't slept well recently, but this is a life goal that feels good and isn't totally out of my reach.

Unfortunately it is just shitposts including videos of people eating japanese snack food and going "oooh woooow it's not the same as this country i live in several thousand miles away" and another one of someone getting a wild deer drunk. It looks like /r/japanlife is a better subreddit for what I was hoping for, but even that has a thread asking for good places to listen to "anime music". I'm scared of traveling and I don't know how well I'd actually do in the country even if I do learn the language or how well I'd do on my own, but I'd like to teach English there. There are other people talking about this goal in the japanlife subreddit, but japan as a society can be very xenophobic from what I've heard and I want to teach students that foreigners aren't people you need to be scared or distrustful of. I don't know. It's 1:30 am and I haven't slept well recently, but this is a life goal that feels good and isn't totally out of my reach. Wrought, March 01, 2018, 11:33:33 pm
I have a friend who is currently living the dream teaching English in Japan, and recently she got to be on national television! The way she described it was that white people are kind of viewed as toys in Japan, and "Japanese TV is pretty bad about twisting or falsifying the contents of interviews with foreigners. ". But hey, if you've got a moderately thick skin and don't take things too personally, it can be fun. She's having fun, you can have fun, fucking go for it!
My pointless thought of the day was that every tiny point of light in the sky is a fusion reaction of unimaginable magnitude beamed across distances of unimaginable magnitude and I almost fell off my bike.

Also, I've said this before, but fucking mercy on you if you're the single lady in the family, because you will get absolutely all of this stuff. You will become the dumping ground for things people are very uncomfortable throwing away because "you probably need it". Also, thanks grandma for throwing away every single family photo slide from when my dad, aunt, and uncle were kids but keeping the pink glass candy bowl? Although I have to give her credit, she is fucking bound and determined to make sure the kids and grandkids have as little to deal with when she passes away, because that house is downright spartan now.

I say go for it. If you get saddled with something you disagree with you can make noise or subvert it in some way. Regular graphic design work can be hard to get, and at least you'd have a good story. Best case scenario they know the score and it's all fun and harmless for you. Of course I'm comfortable making a scene at work if things get out of hand, so maybe that's not good advice for you. Still good luck on the job search.

1742 A.M., 17th of Grumpy Cat.
The upvote harvest has been scarce this year. I appreciate that our subreddit will never be as popular as /r/funny or /r/kotakuinaction, but we've harvested less content this cycle than any previous cycle recorded in the archives. My mods have begun staggering content to provide the illusion of life, hoping that the image of a lively community will be seen as an invitation to participate. The posters do not wish to post in the subreddit proper anymore, largely relegating themselves to the discord server. That damnable server has tormented me ever since its creation. I had hoped to create a forum in which the philosophy of our content could flourish and our community would enrich itself. Instead it has siphoned content that would normally be posted publicly in an ouroboros of shite-posting. If this problem cannot be solved, the subreddit will fall by its own hand.
Our relationship with our sister subreddit has been strained as of late. They have always been more prosperous than us, and do not seem to be suffering as we are. When we initially partnered with them, we assumed that we would be gaining users from them, and that this relationship would result in our growth. Instead it seems to have resulted in an opposite effect; people have come to browse our content, but ultimately end up straying onto our sister's page, enticed by the promise of its title. Few of them come back. Even a few of my most trusted advisers have been lost in this manner. I suppose I should have seen this as a potential result of partnering with /r/neopetsr34. Time will tell if there is a way to amend this mistake, or whether this relationship can ever work in our favour.
My wife is threatening to leave me again. She has never understood the burden of the responsibilities I bear. I cannot blame her for being dissatisfied with me. Her family offered me a hefty dowry of steam games, and she herself had both commendable photoshop skills, as well as being able and willing to verify she was a woman on skype. What could I offer her in return? An ailing subreddit focused on a children's browser game. I did not take her as my bride out of love, but out of greed and lust. She does deserve better. The thought of her leaving hurts me, however, when I am forced to consider the fate of our child...my son. Little Paarthurnax Ash-Ketchum McDonald. He is a good boy, nearly fifteen Youtube-rewinds of age by now. So nearly a man. I have tried to be the best father I could to him, but I have always known that the limited scope of my domain would suppress his soul as it has suppressed my ambition. This land is more burden than gift. Still, it is our home and we must make the most of it. My wife has told me she will leave for /r/neopets if we cannot increase our karma gain threefold by the 20th of Boaty McBoatface, three cycles hence. I almost welcome my family's flight from this place. Perhaps if my son can succeed in the veritable metropolis (at least in comparison to this squalid hamlet) of /r/neopets, then, in a way, I have done good in this world.
Musk Keep Us All.

I was at a festival this weekend and noticed there is a subculture of young white dudes in Tommy Bahama shirts. It wasn't like 1 or 2 people, but there were a lot of guys in loafers, khaki shorts, a Tommy Bahama or 50s Woodie car t-shirts, and the same short hair cut. It didn't seem like a bad fashion trend, but like something else was going on. Not really sure if this is the new face of fascism or just an awful expression of normcore where guys in their 20s-30s dress like overweight men in their 50s,

I watch a lot of 'dog reunited with family member who Went Away for A While' type videos (soldiers, oil rig guys, college kids coming home on break, etc). They tend to vary in length - most are about two minutes long or so - but there's a common formula. You get to see the dog, the person holding the camera walks-and-talks their way to a door, and then there's a shot of the excited and very happy dog jumping up on the delighted human and licking them in the face. You see the entire first burst of energy, where the dog seemingly can't believe Dad's home again, and then usually a few seconds after that. What's interesting to me is that a lot of them go to 3, even 4 minutes. Even though these are videos that have been uploaded to youtube willingly, watching them for too long can feel a little uncomfortable, or like I'm seeing something too intimate that I shouldn't be seeing - sometimes the person holding the camera will start talking to the person who's returned, about how their day was, while the dog plays excitedly.
It's weird to complain that watching home movies feels intimate, but seeing the insides of so many different peoples' homes feels like i've been invited to see something more private than usual because there's a happy dog attached to it. That's an interesting evolution in how we behave on the internet, anyway. imo.

It's pretty good, but one of the charities is "The Foundation to Decrease Worldsuck" which is a charity set up to fund other charities by John Green, his brother, one of the Fine brothers, and a bunch of other smug nerd culture pieces of shit.

Years ago ripoff artist with real talent took every action movie character cliche and ground it into a wonderful cannoli called Duke Nukem. Then Cliffy B took the resulting delicacy pushed out everything fun about it (that sweet cannoli creme of tongue and cheek humor and fun gameplay) and covered it all in high definition brown textures. And he was harolded for hus unprecidented feats of ripoffry! Now he's taking another rip off of a rip off made by his former company (Epic) and trying to rip it off yet. Can he do it? Will he reach such Radical Heights?

How come all the fruit and veg that grows here is awful?
There's parts of the world where they grow mangoes and pineapples and shit half the year, and I'm stuck in a country where we just get fucking apples. No-one in the entire universe has or will ever say "I guess peaches are great but you know what I really fancy right now? A quince." 8000 different types of bland and slightly bitter root vegetable will grow in fucking anything but there's roughly three square feet of ground in the country that can support a melon.
Even the good stuff we get here is ridiculously difficult to produce. You can grow raspberries but you need to do it in a high security facility (but still with plenty of fresh air and sunlight and water and everything) lest the birds eat them all long before they're ever fit for human consumption, and also the stems are fucking weaponised and you get about three berries per plant per year. Strawberries, too, but if the wind blows the wrong direction at any point during their growth they'll taste like fuck all and you'll still be charged a billion pounds a punnet.
I'd love to eat more greens and less carbs, mother but unfortunately tesco has a surplus of courgettes and fuck all else. You should've given birth in a country that wasn't fucking miserable. They did some awful things in the process but I can't 100% blame my ancestors for wanting to plunder the rest of the world for it's produce.

Nothing like meeting a stranger at work who turns out to have lived in the same neighborhood where you used to live, getting in to a good conversation about quasi-legal zoning abuses and gentrification and how much it had changed that neighborhood and how many people were driven out by it, and it's a really good, nuanced conversation but then suddenly they drop a bunch of Ayn Rand fandom and sovereign citizen shit on you and tell you to read The Fountainhead, and you have to kind of gracefully roll with it until they leave, because you're at work.

My favorite thing about the the site I found that was read on Garbage Day (http://www.miketomich.com/) is the utterly insane things he believes about cars. He praises the mushy suspension and steering systems of the old 70s land yachts and claims it's healthier for your bones and joints than modern tight suspensions.
Now I'll allow there's maybe a 0.0001% chance he's right about the repetitive motions experienced while driving can do bad things to your bones and joints. But do you know what's also hazardous to your health? Crashing your car into a wall or a tree or another car because the steering is so sloppy and unresponsive that it doesn't turn in time. Especially in a car with no crumple zones or airbags and a heavy steering column that's just waiting to crush your ribcage in a collision.

Low point of my day was going into the shed to take some bikes out of there so i could see if any of them were in usable condition since they hadn't been touched in a while and then immediately after getting the last bike out, twisting my ankle incredibly bad. It's most likely sprained. It's like pain on my wedding day.
Lower point was realizing after I managed to limp inside and sit down that I couldn't move, I had to pee, nobody was home to help me get around, and all I had nearby was a water bottle.
Lowest point was what followed.

In all honesty, I'd let them have free reign, but be extremely watchful and tell them to come to you if they see anything they don't understand.
For real, considering how everywhere and everything has an internet presence today - and how much it'll likely increase in the future - I think it's impossible to keep children away from it by the time they know basic tech literacy (e.g. knowing how to turn on a tablet or smartphone). There's also the scope of it. Even something as easy-to-access as Youtube contains years and years worth of content, and there's a lot of insidious stuff masking itself as kid's entertainment that, unless you're constantly watching over your kud's shoulder, you can't be sure they haven't seen, and you can't block every website that you know to have kid-unsafe content, since there's about a dozen more that you don't know about.
Thankfully, I think more elementary schools are putting in basic computer literacy as their curriculum, and I think once more and more schools and kids start learning about it, they'll probably expamd it to include internet literacy as well - stuff like being aware of spam and viruses, keeping away from strangers, and how to find actually kid-friendly websites. All-in-all, I think as long as you give a child a good talking to and make sure they're learning safe navigation, you'll be fine.

I don’t really know what a good parenting policy is, but the internet 10 years ago was insanely fucked up. Looking back, I’m pretty shocked at the stuff I regularly saw as a youth.
IMO it’s probably worse now not for the typical dangerous stuff, but more because of its ubiquity. Even if you never see awful porn or hate sites, you can get easily sucked into social stuff more than before. I blame my teenage forum addiction for my lasting social anxieties and toxic attitudes. Darkly, April 30, 2018, 05:14:45 am
Yeah, I agree. I was mainly thinking about all the shock sites, learning how to navigate weird strangers on the internet and things like virus protection since those were the main obstacles for me when I was browsing about a decade ago. However I didn't consider social media and its influences over developing minds because it's perhaps the most insidious facet of commonplace internet activities, even for savvy folk.

I don't know why everyone keeps using social media for political discussion. It's not good for that. No political discussion, right or left leaning, on any social media platform has ever had any worth or consequence. It's just people trying to show off how smart they are for cool points and then the people who disagree with them being smarmy and shitty about it and then the original poster gets smarmy and shitty in return.
Just use social media for what it's meant for. Just look at pictures of your friends having fun, or read their jokes or opinions on movies. Fuck's sake.

I found another genre of reddit content I love equally as much as "[X] ruined my romantic relationship" and it's "I'm going to quit my job to pursue my dream"
It's for the same reason too, because the statement is totally contradictory to the truth most of the time
like on reddit "[X] ruined my romantic relationship" means "I ruined my relationship adjacent to [X]" and "I'm going to quit my job to pursue my dream" means "I don't like working so I hope that if I quit my stable job to try and profit off of this whim I'll be instantly successful"
Edit: The cream of the fucking crop of this genre is "I quit my job to pursue streaming as a career" which translates to "I'm unemployed and I own a computer, hopefully people will pay me to do what I do for fun anyway"

i dont think its furry racist since otters are known for swimming. but it is furry racist to assume that, say, people with otter fursonas are sluts, or that people with fox fursonas are sluts, or that people with cat fursonas are sluts, or that people w krytton, June 03, 2018, 02:03:36 am

Things I have been commissioned for:
Digimon Porn (person refused to elaborate)
A story about lesbians who cut each other and lick the blood, with both horror and sex. (Person was really persistent - he contacted me on tumblr, then emailed me when I didn't respond)
Black Lagoon but Cyberpunk (i did this one because holy shit, yeah)
Gay Fish RPG (also yes)
Rick and Morty/Total Drama Island crossover (who got really pissy with me when I said I couldn't do 20,000+ word chapters every month)
Short story involving the mascot of a digital marketing and social consulting group from Nantucket

Reading a technical manual for something I'm very new to and I don't understand half of it, it's clearly not written or edited by someone with particularly good english but I absolutely cannot tell whether it's just getting lost in translation and poor writing or whether I'm just way out of my depth.

Working on Gay Fish RPG and Cyberpunk Black Lagoon, just turned in the Nantucket short story thing. Also forgot to add the dude who wanted me to write a porn comic for some studio Trigger anime for free (he didn't even say it was exposure he wanted for me to 'prove myself' before he paid me for other stuff) and a guy who wanted some kind of human MLP Silent Hill (which i was about to take before i read his documents and nearly all of the monsters involved rape. the main character was one of the kids from the show, btw)

And then the line weights are all over the place so they're all clearly random clip art Even though logos are one of his best, no wait, logotypes. So you're good at finding the right font for the word Kinko"s What's CHAO mean? "1st T shirt concept contest 2010" Fuck I'll stop now

God genius lyrics is fucking terrible
It's just different people making conjecture without actually reading into the lyrics or their context until one person makes the right conjecture and everyone mindlessly upvotes them until they're right
Like in Humility there's a line that goes "I'm the lonely twin, the left hand" and the person making the annotation took it as 2d literally being upset that he's left handed because he's in a minority and some cultures consider left handedness bad
He's one of the two frontmen of the band and he's been put upon for 20 years, and just now that Murdoc's in jail he gets a bit of freedom to breathe
It's not literally about him being left handed you fffffffffucks

I had to listen to the radio on the drive in today and the local station billing themselves as "The Cutting Edge of Rock" played a lot of the same music they did when I was in high school well over a decade ago. Somone's edge needs sharpening.

I've never understood the use of the word "cyclopean" as an indicator of size. Size is absolutely not the defining feature of a cyclops.

It's not their defining characteristic these days, but the cyclopes of Greek mythology were in fact giants in addition to having only one eye.

beavis and butthead and daria could fundamentally get along, they're both products of the same environment and share a cynical detachment from a broken suburban culture. if they synthesized their humor and critique they could would become incredibly powerful

i mean, considering daria was originally a secondary character in their show, this technically is canonically proven

daria is an antithesis to beavis and butthead, contrasting the fraternal excess and purity of emotion with her intellectual mindset. They have not successfully meshed their similar perspectives on the same society, even if one exists as a reaction to the original. The Dialetic process is still in an emergent stage

I was on the bus and suddenly thought "Oh, shit, I used two WORDS too many!" and then spent 8 hours at work, sweating bullets, praying furiously to God that "Please, Lord, please nobody call me out on not delivering my 14/88 joke on the snark, internet forum with enough rigor and conviction, please nobody catch that I half-assed it before I have a chance to get back home and set things right, if anybody did that, Lord, me flubbing the delivery of the 'nazi-hate-symbol-plus-internet-web-comic-by-a-guy-who-sent-dick-pics-to-a-minor' joke would certainly reflect badly on my character, Lord."
Phew. Sometimes, I'm glad I have the were-withall and mental fortitude to know what a fox paw is, so that I don't come off sounding like a idiot.

This title significantly expanded upon the gameplay of Antarctic Adventure by most notably adding a greater variety of stages and enemies and RPG elements: boss fights, purchasable items, and several mini-games. Items can be purchased through three different fisherman, in exchange for fish, that give Penta new abilities. One of the items that can be bought is a gun, which reflects the characterization Pentarou (Penta's son) will be given in his appearances in the Parodius series. Level design and variety has increased from Antarctic Adventure; there are forest levels, ice levels, water-based levels, caves, and even some outer-space bonus levels.[3] There are several shortcuts, usually hidden underneath holes (which are typically harmful hazards) in the game, that allow the player to go on almost completely different paths. The game also featured multiple endings, with the hidden good ending available when the player pauses the game a certain number of times.[4] In the bad ending, the princess dies, while in the good ending, she lives, an idea that Kojima would later use again in Metal Gear Solid and, to an extent, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty.[5]
