Seedge posted:The Leave.eu page on Facebook has some gold in there. They shared a post about how John Lewis will stop putting "Boys" or "girls" tags on the clothing they sell. People seem to think this is "taking political correctness too far". their followers got really snowflakey when I photoshopped their pro-death penalty sponsored tweet calling for the execution of convicted (black, of course) murderer Michael Adebolajo with the face of convicted (white, of course) war criminal Alexander Blackman.

An invisible man has always had his finger on a doorway, his entire life. You go there and try to close the door, hurting that man. He yells and you might not apologize because you didn't know he was there. What Notch is saying you should keep trying to close the door anyway because people might join in on that guy just to stop him from closing all the doors in the world, and that's bad! This analogy stops working because in this situation you don't close a door out of being stupid as gently caress.

TheManWithNoName posted:Andrew WK both have dead/doppelgänger conspiracies too. I actually kind of believe the Andrew K one, and I once had a 90 minute interview with him. Or whoever he was. He just looks so different, and he hasn't done poo poo new musically since 2006, which coincidentally is the same exact time the whole thing came up. Just a few covers albums and a noodly piano improv thing. His statements about it are also way too wordy and equivocal for an issue that could be answered with "No, it's not true." I think at the very least if he's not a different person entirely then he was some kind of product of a committee that "created" him and then dissolved nastily, leaving him like the Monkees after they quit their TV show and tried to make their own music. P.S. "I Get Wet" owns no matter what the real story is. Imagined has a new favorite as of 03:40 on Sep 4, 2017 |

I don’t just mean that in a philosophical or conceptual way. It’s not the same person at all.” http://www.stereogum.com/1281921/andrew-wk-is-the-face-of-playtex-wipes/commercial-appeal/

Ularg posted:What's the point of a maid cafe at all unless you're at least a little bit of a weirdo? It reminds me of this comic. The gist of it is that it's okay to patronize sex workers and similar, just remember that it's a performance. You're there for a fantasy, so remember that they're just normal people once they leave and you shouldn't expect anything more from them.

A room of fake trees and real owls? Fool, it was full of real trees and fake owls. The trees have fooled you with the mesmerizing owls. You are now part tree, no part owl.

You'd think the Yakuza would put more effort into their fetishes. Those are terrible head-pieces. I bet their tattoos are low effort too, that's probably why they wear the suits, so the other Yakuza can't see how lovely they are at being Yakuza.

A lot of languages just name an animal modifier-other animal. Like the welsh word for rat translates back as 'big mouse'.
