Soyface's just a thing because if you're extremely online you tend to reflexively cringe at the online spaces where users have an affect that isn't on the same level of ironic distance and emotional closedness as yours. Channers want to make fun of youtubers and use their usual reactionary memes as terminology and paranoid explanation for something banal, some goons are gonna try to make it about consumer culture or liberals or whatever, but really it's the same phenomenon as when one cringes at redditors saying "epic" for everything (I do the same where I find the typical Tumblr lingo to be way too performatively extra and quirky). An online community's general attitude can be dumb and basic without that being the sign of something sinister.

no, soyface is and always has been cringe af for the same reason as the youth pastor turning his chair around and sitting down backwards on it it's obviously affected and fake as poo poo desperately trying to look as excited as possible for the thumbnail for unsupervised bored children to click

it started because of people mimicking the face Steve Carrell is doing on the poster for "The 40 Year Old Virgin". i know it's not the same face but that's how it started - doing a big fake goofy smile e: i have no evidence for this, but I know it's true, just trust me

I feel like the Samantha character carries SITC but no one wants to acknowledge that because a lot of the humor is tied in with her extreme promiscuity. It's like a joke that many people are laughing at for the wrong reasons.

I like the reoccurring theme that we made the present so lovely that we can no longer get people to buy-in to the idea of a future together. The cowboy outrunning the fire. The waitress not cooperating because the cops stole her tip. Even the brother making his last stand is a recognition that there is no future of 'success' he can fit into since poverty has made him such an angry motherfucker.

My issue is people are always talking about how GREAT the dialogue and general banter is but after a season of watching it with an ex, it felt like a lot of interactions that people would post about OMG this is so FUNNY XD could be boiled down to: Characters A and B are chatting about something unrelated to the plot A puts forward something outlandish and perhaps even a wacky B, deadpan, points out a logical inconsistency or shortcoming in A's thought process A deadpans an acknowledgement of said inconsistency again and again and again I swear, all with the same tones and overall timing E: to elaborate, the problem is also that not EVERYONE should have the immediate witty insight or awareness to point things out, but it always felt like a constant thing and ended up being irritating Good soup! has issued a correction as of 15:49 on Mar 30, 2022 |

I remember when the BYOB forum started and became a brief thing for a while, there were definitely people posting pics of themselves imitating it in a proto-soyface manner, both genuinely and ironically. Maybe that's a part of its lineage as well, or maybe I just have "everything online came from SA" syndrome. Which I will NOT apologise for

A lot of "banter" based shows come off super artificial because people IRL just don't spend very much of their time bantering This is also true for shows I like. Letterkenny is funny but I have to watch it with subtitles on because they just banter so goddamn much

Letterkenny banter is also very formulaic on a per-character basis, but it works because it's so formulaic that the formula is itself the joke, rather than just an unconscious tendency the writers have like Good Soup's Gilmore Girls example
