I should really start playing Spelunky again. I never really WANTED to quit, but life got in the way and I never got back. I dunno. Should I? Hmmm.

I don't care if it's not "real people", it's fucking filthy and disgusting. There's no defending it. It's one of those things where "oh, well it's okay then so whatever I'll just keep doing it", and then what if it expands from there? I don't give a shit if that's a slippery slope argument or whatever, this is not a thing that should exist. I can't even believe there are people who would defend it. It actually just makes me extremely fucking angry, so I'm walking away from this.

When it comes to child porn, I think the answer is rather obvious.

You can't delete it from the RSS feed though. I also find it easier to just stream the episodes these days, rather than having to download them.

Yeah I understand it's not a black and white thing (for example I loved Kill la Kill, and that definitely rode the line very deliberately!), and I'll acknowledge that the way I presented my stance originally was very black and white. I sort of just reacted without thinking. Anyway, when I am talking about the really gross shit, it's mostly all that loli porn that is explicitly underdeveloped children who are very obviously not even close to an adult. But yes that article is extremely vague. I feel like I can't get behind either side there without a lot more information. Like I almost need to see what Canada is all up in arms about, even if I don't necessarily want to see it! Anyway I'm sorry for derailing this fan fiction thread maybe I will shut up now. I'M SORRY. FORGIVE ME.

That's fair, SBM. I think I agree with everything you just said, I just care slightly more!

Given that it's a radio drama, I think the acting is pretty important! It's utterly bizarre to me that you say you don't care, hah.

I generally agree with the philosophy of "if that's not your thing, that's fine", but this is underage children. It doesn't matter if they're not real, that's fucking disgusting.

The article seems to dance around it, but if I'm understanding correctly, it is hentai of underage children? That's gross. While I don't think the guy should have to register as a sex offender or spend a year in jail, I fully support a complete and total ban on comics featuring underage children depicted in sexual situations. Granted, because Japan, that would include practically all hentai, since they looove their high school girls, but I'm okay with that, too. What I'm saying is I don't know if I agree that this is a "fucked interpretation of pornography", so much as a fucked up punishment. If I'm wrong about what they actually found on that guy's laptop, then I guess this whole post was meaningless.

VLC is almost perfect except it doesn't track which episodes I've already listened to. It just displays the whole feed. So it's almost perfect but it sucks ass.

Whenever the internet fails to deliver a thing that I know for a fact people besides me want, I become irrationally angry. Right now I want the world to burn.

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but I've listened to this whole thing, too. I don't think it's that good. I mean, the writing is all right and entertaining enough, but the acting is godawful. Everyone sounds stilted and awkward like they don't know how to... act. Obviously I liked it well enough to never give up, but part of that was because I kept hoping they'd get better. They... never did. anyway PLAYBACK SPEEDS. Someone tell me they have a good podcatcher/player for PC that allows me to change the playback speed. How iTunes doesn't have this fucking feature after YEARS of the iPod having it built in is beyond me. EDIT: I found a Google search result that claims iTunes does have this feature but I'm pretty sure that's a filthy lie. I'm... going to try gPodder again. I've tried it before. Was never a fan. iTunes may have a lot of problems, but it's a really good podcatcher aside from this admittedly minor missing feature. Maybe I should just suffer with it until I get used to it. EDIT EDIT: Google lied to me twice. gPodder doesn't even have it's own audio player, so how could it possibly have variable playback speed?! I'd forgotten that. Guess that is why I wasn't a fan!

Fair enough on that front. Doesn't make it any less stupid!

I'm sorry. ): I mean the fight's okay, but the reason it exists is stupid, and then of course there's the usual "let's just ignore the fact that we're killing hundreds of people", etc.

Wow, that... is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen.

I also experience this. I assume it's normal, but maybe we're the only two weirdos.

In my head, Bjorn has a higher-pitched voice than clyde. No, I don't know why.

Are you sure? I'm fairly certain I unlocked an area during that. I didn't even handle it for a long while. Either way, I definitely collected and used a bunch during that time, and ended up unlocking everything the Homestead had to offer. Or maybe I just thought there were times when you have to use multiple stones to unlock rooms, and it turned out I just wasted them during that event. I.............. don't think that happened, though. I could've sworn. TOO BAD I PLAYED IT YEARS AGO AND DON'T REMEMBER. I guess.

There you go.

If that was supposed to be an example of the Oxford Comma's absence ruining things, it's not a very good one. The correct punctuation for that sentence where eot and SpennyDubz are the idiots would be, "I think the idiots, eot and SpennyDubz, should discuss this further."

You said it, pal!

Oh cool another assassin turned templar. I mean I would've much rather played as Kenway that whole game than Connor, but we've already seen this trick Ubisoft! BE MORE ORIGINAL! Am I right guys? Let's get up in arms about this! I just don't know how the franchise hasn't killed itself already. So many games released so quickly. Ubisoft is a well-oiled AssCreed machine at this point.

ahahaha oh shit I was not expecting that

Yeah it always amazed me how many complaints there were around the H2G2 movie about how different it was to the books. PEOPLE! IGNORANCE! HOW DARE THEY!

Ben you just retconned the purpose of this thread. I don't know what to believe anymore.
