This series of threads has Actually Been Worse Than GW for more than a year because there's nothing good to make fun of and the few people that cling to these and continue to post are broken brained idiots so eager to own GW strawmen that they don't bother to think about anything that confirms their beliefs and instead write screeds attempting to engage nonsense line-by-line while jacking off to infinity tittys.

Amazing that the thread that mostly lives on making fun of GW and its fans should have posters that will argue with people who post literally copies of GW fans wrongheaded opinions

Truly this a mind-blowing realisation and the obsessive quoting of every response long after the jig is up is definitely owning this thread all over again

As someone who lurks in this thread, the 40k thread and the 30k thread: maybe there wouldn't be a need for a seperate deaththread if the AoS and 40k thread weren't such hugboxes?

30k thread is cool and good though

Yeah, I know. It's actually a pretty decent general tabletop + related items thread most of the time. But obviously GW is its raison d'etre.

It's actually a legit really big problem with science reporting. It's transparently obvious that it's got nothing to do with the thread, I just get really mad about it, which I noted like three pages back. GMO food will do nothing to you independent of any other bad stuff your food's been pumped with and I stand by that. I mean, christ, it's the first link if you google it, give me some credit.

Also the GITS movie is alright if you like action-thrillers but the twist at the end was just so hilariously tone-deaf I actually started laughing.

The sound design was good, but I think the design was a bit less threatening than the 1995 one, but its performance certainly wasn't.

Funny thing is the older media the name Motoko Kusanagi was an obvious psuedonym too, it's like being named Catherine Excalibur and I'm pretty sure it's even commented on. Because when you install your brain into a completely different cyborg body you can be whoever you want to be, even if your naming sense is a little on the nose.

Though I'm not sure if it being a pseudonym was true throughout the TV series.

If the point here is that we are dumb people who spend our time on sifting through worthless trash, that was already proven by the fact we bought and played GW games.

I mean, the film either had the "don't mention the problem and suspend your disbelief" option or the "actually fix the problem" option and went with "mention the problem and somehow own itself, which will make it okay???" which is at best, weird. Or are we having ironically bad opinions again?

I made some posts about gw's financials a long time ago like three threads back that I think were decent. But I'm not some kind of amazing poster and my willingness to put effort into a post is highly variable. Also lately I've been getting burnt out by the futility.

so now you get lovely posts with no initial caps that I didn't go back and edit for clarity or even to fix typos, because this thread, and gw, aren't worth it

It's worth it when you post your Cool Opinions. (Thanks for the cat posts, I threw some money your way. Hope he gets better soon.)
