chitoryu12 posted:Yeah, the big problem people have had with Twilight and 50 Shades existing isn't that they're terrible as much as that they're really popular and focus a lot on trying to normalize abusive behaviors like stalking and rape as either romantic gestures of love or mild problems that you just need to help your partner overcome because of how much you love him. Pretty much the only time I've seen people have that problem is in explicitly feminist/anti-abuse areas. Everywhere else, the main problem is "Ew, they're getting cooties all over!"

It did not help that when twilight was at the peak of its popularity, the big time fans were obnoxious.

mds2 posted:Fun prank I played on my friend. The day one of the Twilight movies premiered I posted an ad on craigslist stating "FREE Two Twilight tickets. Something came up and I cant make it. I want to make sure they go to a true fan. call me at (Best friends phone number)." He was teaching a class and got 20 calls in a 5 minute time frame. Suck it, Scott! This is freaking hilarious, but I hope he got you back (please tell us how.)

artsy fartsy posted:This is freaking hilarious, but I hope he got you back (please tell us how.) He hasn’t yet, other than asking me to officiate his wedding. I know a big dose of karma is coming one day. A different friend tried to sell a boat motor on Craigslist. I created a fake Facebook profile with a picture of the biggest red neck I could find on google. I friended some of his friends and even his sister. Then I started emailing him about the motor for sale for about a week. Each email got more and more bizarre, even asking him if he could drop off the motor and ref a backyard wrestling match while he was there. He finally stopped responding so I pulled the ultimate goon move and emailed him a picture of his house. “You still live here? I’m gonna stop by sometime”. I had to let the cat out of the bag on that one because he was going to call the police. Craigslist can be a hell of a lot of fun.

I'll bet it's a destination wedding in the Maldives, and when you get there, there will just be one old taxi driver with no teeth waiting to meet you. He'll take you to a run-down shack where the locals gut fish, and you'll be covered in an inch-thick layer of parasites while your buddy gets married on Bimini, and, frankly, you deserve it.

If you're deep enough conservative that you know where his blog is then that says a lot more to me than just watching Fox News. I know that imgur's 98% a conservative shithole.

As I white racist I have no historical context on why an African country (imagined or otherwise) would have a distrust of people from other countries. edit: also loling about the anti-Democracy thing that would make [x-country] great again

hmm an African nation which is advanced due to hiding its vied-for national resource from outside forces seeking to exploit them... Clearly, that's no commentary, and black people in a modern pluralistic society simply want a black Reich. Yours in nuance, a Nazi gently caress

Facebook Aunt posted:That island Wonder Woman comes from has all those things too. Plus no crime, since it's a penis-free zone. In the comic the women are blessed by the goddess to only give birth to girls. I bet in the original draft they just dashed all the male babies against the rocks. Because if you're going to ask the goddess for a favour of divine intervention then you don't waste it on something a determined warrior nation can handle themselves (see 300). Edit: Actually a Wonder Woman themed version of 300 sounds hella metal. They already had Cercei in 300 so they're halfway there. Cate Blanchett, Eva Green, Lena Headey in the lead roles.

One of the more problematic elements of Black Panther mythos is the character of M'Baku, the Man-Ape. I don't think I have to explain why. Still, they're keeping him in the movie as the head of a rival Wakandan tribe that venerates a white gorilla god, without the name Man-Ape or the gorilla costume. From buzz about the movie, I gathered that while he won't be friendly with T'Challa and his tribe, he's not going to be a villain like in the comics. Despite his problematic origins, the makers of the movie liked the idea of using him to show that Wakanda has its own religious and tribal minorities. But people like that meme maker think all of sub-Saharan Africa is populated by the single culture of "black people" because they can't get past skin color. It's like how they hold up Romans, Vikings, Saxons, etc as exemplars of "white culture," when there's no way those people wouldn't have seen each other as part of the same culture.

Katt posted:In the comic the women are blessed by the goddess to only give birth to girls. That is the original draft from the myths, yes. The Amazons would raid surrounding territories for men to rape, then kill them and any male children. Course in the myths the Amazons were the daughters of Ares, so violence and war was literally in their blood.
