Equeen posted:You’re posting on a forum that popularized let’s plays lmao Triticum Guzzler posted:There's a lot of hosed up and weird people, on this comedy forum website, who do not ever post jokes, do not enjoy jokes or indeed even laughing, and have coined a derogatory term for people who make jokes. They're all missionaries drawn here by the allure of the fertile lands of videos of a severely asthmatic man playing Megaman games, and interesting philosophical quandries posted by the fake PTSD guy about the nature of doors and windows in Dungeons and Dragons. They are wise men here to educate a savage, uneducated, indigenous sort. It is a sonorous, musical form of education; a greasy collective amasses on the front line of the battle against social injustice, the video game subforum on a message board that has a drop down menu that makes light of the holocaust on every single page, and sings a shrill harmony that permeates the very aether, making my pets feel unsafe, when a video game muscle man calls Catwoman a bitch. They have picked their battles well, and I note from my foxhole that I am running out of ammunition, chiefly in the form of the increasingly finite number of ways I can frame this absurd situation with the English language. I clench my fists and yell "anime" towards an uncaring, absent God, and swear solemnly to press my thumbs into Chocolate America's eyeballs until he is blinded, to directly emasculate sporting figures, to beat the poo poo out of tumblr users with baseball bats, and to quietly appreciate what Waylon Smithers being gay means to me.

There's just something very amusing to me about making these somber videos about Elden Ring where you reference item descriptions and generally use a tone like you're communicating some great epic. Just imagining the video maker guy logging onto the game and putting on certain armor so he can record himself slow walking through an area and be like "Essex the Wise was a devout follower of the Priesthood of the Fingers - an organization known for their small stature and even smaller fingers" I don't even particularly dislike that sort of video - I like goofy video game lore as much as anyone else. But it's still pretty funny.

I'm listening to Red Scare pod, Mid Gala episode. They Broughton the boriqua designer of their dress I guess. Very fashion heavy podcast. Hot takes in episode include: Women hate women more than gays hate women, Elon Musk is a more likable billionaire than Peter Theiel, children's media roundup with Korean fantranslated car robots vs Puerto Rican sesame street characters.

Nothus posted:But does it, though? it certainly doesn't make it good or ideal but in the specific head to head of who is the more likable billionaire, one of them at least has the entertainment value of failing to listen to anyone that tells him he's wrong about anything and digging himself further into like 10 simultaneous holes as a result.

I think for a lot of viewers it’s basically filling the role of ASMR for gamers who think ASMR is dumb stuff for girls. or all the content that’s like “I am the French whisperer, and I am going to very quietly tell you a relaxing story to put you to sleep” got no real opinions on ASMR being good/bad/neutral, just seems like a part of the videos’ appeal

Smythe posted:i would like the arline episode. it’s a giant clusterfuck. airports are extremely massive and require an obscene amount of labor to run. I worked at SFO for several months and it was eye opening seeing behind the curtain. this is why they are usually run by the city with city union staff for O&M. the city ostensibly leases out the space to malls and makes rent on them. they might contract out rental management services, but they can have in-house contracting and OGC departments that do it too. I’m not sure if they lease out whole wings to an outside company and then the outside company individually leases it out. that’s possible even with rent seeking, they are usually quite subsidized by taxes

my bony fealty posted:Yung chomsky looks exactly like the guys they make fun of in the "city authentic" episodes and I hope it didnt hurt his feelings I would be very surprised to find out that Yung Chomsky doesn't come from a pretty (if not very) well-off background. He reminds me of a lot of the rich younger people I knew in college. I was oblivious to it at the time, but there's just a certain demeanor that seems to be associated with "people who have just been able to freely do whatever they want without needing to stress about things like jobs/money." At the time I just thought "drat these people seem really chill," but later realized that, literally without exception, they all had rich parents. I don't exactly dislike them for it - if anything I envy them for being able to live without the sort of worries/stresses that most people have to deal with. They were generally nice/good people. There were basically two "categories" of rich (or at least "well-off") younger people - people like the ones I mention above, and the ones who are really into being professionally successful in a field like finance. The latter were actually pretty similar to their middle-class counterparts (only with more success, because they could usually get fancy internships earlier than anyone else); I'd have a hard time telling them apart based off appearance/demeanor alone.
