Destroy is actually the lamest ending, and is for dorks who can't bear the loss of their assorted pretty princesses even though the gatdam games are over with anyway

Usually elves, though often any airy, flighty race of slight and effeminate beings

LP fans just naturally tend to empathize more with filth-covered hirsute drunkards, I suppose

fyad is a classic case of resource overuse. they subsisted on disapproval toward sincere, self-unaware LF posters, then when they got that shut down they subsisted on disapproval toward sincere, self-unaware old GBS posters. now, with only edgy hyper-ironic nihilism and sarcasm remaining in their hunting grounds, they have nothing to live off

corn in the bible posted:

actually they're just retards, like gbs itself
seems kinda boring honestly, always posting about nothing

I mean that's kinda what we do in the chat thread, but at least chat thread actually has conversations about about the random stuff we chat about

and most chat-threaders also post somewhere else besides chat thread

I'm glad you're safe.

as close to a tornado as those recorders are, telling each other to just relax seems strange. Like, they're only yards away, its okay imo to not be calm

it's more chan contamination than reddit. redditors are generally too boring and dumb for the depths of FYAD or the chan sites IMO

The calls for elven genocide are often coupled with terms and phrases that are commonly seen alongside homophobic rants

In fact, I have noticed that while it is often claimed that elves/fae folk/whatever are hated because they are "mary sues" or "think they're better", the terminology involved almost always smacks of reactionary rhetoric w/r/t environmentalists, women, and LGBT people

In short I think there is a definite link between the cultivation of the dwarf (hard working, alcoholic, foul-tempered and masculine) as a totem creature and the disdain of the fair folk as a symbol of hated effeminacy

It's basically every thread you see it in

Elves referred to as "prancing"
"Tree-hugger"
"Preening"
"Fancy"
"Fabulous"
"Mincing" (yes, seriously)

that's just a handful of the ones I've seen recently

It paints a pretty ugly picture about the subconscious underpinnings of their desire for elf genocide
