You just can't get enough of your turn at the buzzsaw, can you? Let me break it down differently:

- This thread was complaining about the tolerance of weird SJW threads, and how that allowance-of-bigotry hurt the overall impression and revenue of the site

- You came in and went "yeah, what's up with those losers," when your threads are easily some of the most bigoted nonsense ever.


Hmmm, maybe don't make a thread specifically asking for people to hate on women. Seriously, how disconnected can you be? You literally made a thread asking people to bitch about women, now you're acting like you are blameless in misogyny.

The saddest part is that, hey, that thread's pretty tame, honestly compared to the bible of discriminatory Pick posts. I tried to find another recent one, where you post about autists trying to kill their parents and advocates that all autists are horrible, but it was mercifully gassed or something . I don't know wtf this gassed thread is all about, but it should let everyone know how shitposty your threads can be, recently.

Also, let's not forget the fact that you have recently closed a bunch of your threads, one was ALREADY A STAR TREK THREAD (so sorry we're not generating enough interest in your low-effort Star Trek threads after you literally closed one). Once you even closed after posting, "this thread bores me now." So, yeah, people don't want to effort post in your threads anymore, guess you'd better blame your audience.

Again, I liked a ton of Pick posts. Even the controversial ones generated some good content, and I look forward to reading more of your efforts that are not rooted in hatred. Old Pick posts were generally a good bet, but in the last few weeks it's been a huge uptick in pushing bigoted nonsense/low effort fanservice. I wouldn't normally have a problem with that, but if you're going to wander into a discussion about how tolerating bigots kinda tanked this site and act like you are on the good team, then drat, yeah, I'm gonna hold serve.

Every few years I go onto Netflix, while drunk, in search of a random low-budget-y looking horror movie I haven't seen yet. Every few years I end up watching Ravenous and, about halfway through, thinking to myself, "poo poo, have I seen this before...?"

Ravenous has the same problem as Mom and Dad Save the World, Jeffrey Jones.

His presence ruins two otherwise equally perfect films.

You leave Jeffrey Jones alone, he's already dealing with a nervous breakdown after Ferris Bueller led him on a wild goose chase and a evil ghost tried to groom his daughter for an underage wedding.

Related: Beetlejuice is a wonderful movie and the cartoon is great, but only as long as you remain ignorant of the details. Like, the DVD I have of Beetlejuice comes with some of the cartoon episodes and my goodness does the cartoon turn super-creepy when you realize the context of why BJ hangs out with Lydia.

I spent four hours today between 1100 and 1500 being intermittently vomited on by a patient with c.diff and an rear end wound that exposed rotten bone. I’m a professional chowdercatcher. Scottish accents can only improve this experience.

It's WAYYY better now than it was at launch, when it basically was Debate 101 and everyone was calling out Logical Fallacies like they were special moves from a fighting game.

There's also the hard shift to the left that changed the mood of the place from College Conservative Corner to Pure Socialism Now and Guillotines Too.

Though, we should probably split off CineD into some kind of Dumb Discussion subforum that isnt a review dump, because holy poo poo the Overwrought Analysis of SpyKids through the lens of Marxism schtick really kills any casual discussion.

The internet that allowed Something Awful at its height to create masterpieces of nihilistic humor like tribute.wmv no longer exists. We can't go home anymore and we need to accept it.

Likewise the "SJWs" we mocked in 2013 for being humorless moral scolds turned out, in hindsight, to be waaaaaaay less obnoxious and societally damaging than the CHUD brigades that we didn't realize existed beyond the confines of YouTube comments sections.

Gotta say if there's one thing I agree with Accordion Man on it's that we can't afford to be "lol nothing matters" comedic nihilists any more. As we learned to our detriment in 2016, it turns out that some things do matter and earnesty can't always be met with derision and mocking people for caring about things.

:agreed: good points. Also the first time I’ve heard of earnesty.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


I think it's erroneous to see the irreverent style of humor that led to stuff like tribute.wmv as being in the same ideological vein as redpill CHUDs today. The alt-right strategy for the past five years has been to co-opt the very same overly defensive, easily offended "snowflake" language they accuse the left of doing, except instead of being in defense of vaguely noble ideas it's in support abjectly horrible ones.

Pick's not even the worst one in there by a country mile, that'd be the dude who just shits on specific people like Mirthless* over and over pages after the initial argument has ended, then goes "stop derailing the thread or you'll get banned!" when called out, I think that was the dude who would also start PMing anyone who got the better of him really creepy poo poo and re-regged to get around a probation.

Granted this was all probably thousands of pages ago by now cos like gently caress am I keeping up with that depressing-rear end thread unless i'm in a REALLY lovely mood.

* Mirthless chooses to die on some really loving dumb hills but at least they don't come off as a massive skeeze imo
