  1. anime

    yo rokka continues to be great and fuck the haters also durarara i think durarara is really great also ore monogatari? longer legs than i ever expected it to have: a++++ also gate still hot, beautiful, seductive trash also i kinda wanna drop overlord because it's not good but i still like the basic premise so i'm gonna keep watching in the hopes it goes somewhere interesting, despite not actually having much hope also legend of arslan continues to be really solid, like an anime version of game of thrones, more light-hearted, more forgiving, more fun, but still has that sort of political intrigue, but you know it's still an anime so yeah anyway it's good
  2. Thumb Fortress 2

    It's actually funny/sad how many people assume Bad Robot has like, in-house game devs, and only address criticisms, etc. directly to them. D':
  3. Thumb Fortress 2

    There's a new game mode! It's called Pass Time and it's like if TF2 was soccer or something. http://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=17833 I like it but I'm biased. X:
  4. Movie/TV recommendations

    He's a popular actor who has been in some roles that weren't great.

  6. anime

    oh my god the king kai speech fucking killed me
  7. anime

    Hey CrunchyCast is back which is cool 'cause I still like it. (I wish they would stop censoring their swearing though because they swear a lot and man it's annoying.) Also this was said by Victoria on the latest episode: "[harem anime] is sorta like watching football".
  8. Social Justice

    I can't name a single white jazz musician and I've always (positively) associated jazz with black people. In fact, it's still just instinctively and weirdly weird for me to think of white jazz musicians! What world did I grow up in that's so completely different from what is apparently reality??
  9. We talked about this in chat, but man that guy hasn't actually released a game since Far Cry 2. From Ubisoft to LucasArts to Valve to Amazon to ???. I also had no idea the man suffered goddamn memory loss from working on Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. So my guess is he is moving around trying to find the right balance between life and work and he bails at the first sign of a repeated pattern. But obviously I don't really know. Poor guy. ):
  10. anime

    Yeah all I remember is not liking it! Maybe I'll watch it again but probably not since my backlog still exists.
  11. anime

    For the record, this is one of the ones I've seen. It was on Toonami.
  12. anime

    I would but I really don't like mechs! I watched Eureka 7: AO 'cause I liked Eureka 7 (what a mistake that one was). I watched Gargantia 'cause it had a planet covered in water (this one was super good). I watched Eureka 7 'cause it had sky-surfing (fun and colorful and I liked the art but the plot was mediocre). I watched Evangelion 'cause people told me it was good (still a mystery, that one...). I watched various Gundams 'cause they were on Toonami but they were all boring (ALL!!!!)!!!
  13. anime

    i've developed an opinion of this season of anime i won't apologize you can't make me
  14. Ferguson

    So... ignoring the issue of guns and how insane guns are and wow I would not want to be around a bunch of people carrying AR-15s (same as I wouldn't want to be around Ferguson cops ever, really)... does that make the Oath Keepers actual decent human beings, contrary to what was originally proposed in this thread? I'm confused, for real.
  15. anime

    i just checked and kekkai sensen still hasn't aired its final episode the previous episode was june 20 c'mon
  16. So, be rich to get rich is what you're saying!
  17. Idle Workouts

    This is fair.
  18. Idle Workouts

    Why are you arguing with me about this?? Am I not allowed to just dislike something??
  19. Idle Workouts

    If you think that, then you don't know why JRPGs are fun.
  20. Idle Workouts

    There's no such thing! Also JRPGs are fun.
  21. Idle Workouts

    After losing ten pounds while on vacation for a month (well, two vacations: one week of vacation, one of work, one of vacation, one of work) and eating like shit and doing no exercise, I've determined that exercising is unequivocally a sham. But I went back to the gym yesterday anyway. Christ working out is the most boring activity imaginable I hate it so much.

    puns are great tho
  23. Social Justice

    I've heard far far more people mocking the white afro (usually in the vein of calling it the Jewfro, on guys at least, which I guess is its own awkward problem, and also in pointing out how messy and unkempt it looked and etc.). That's probably just a factor of where I grew up (high school had a significant amount of black people), but yeah. Personally I've always loved the look of the afro and wished I could pull it off (same with dreads, to be honest), but I never bothered 'cause a) my hair doesn't do anything other than a combover parted on the left b) white afros and dreads look weird and c) ALL OF THIS SHIT. And that's the last post I'll make in here. I'll probably continue reading it, as painful as it is.

    Bad puns can be really good, though. I don't mean in the same way that people generally say "that pun is awful" to mean good, I mean as in a poorly constructed pun can be great. Why not just say "poorly constructed"?
