Ok but first I have some questions about your av which is part of the snupocalypse suitability screening protocol.

1. It appears the matador is attempting to bonk the Iberian Death Bull on the head with a large black whiffleball bat. Is this the case?
2. Why does it look like the bull has half of an upside-down skateboard protruding from his shoulders?
3. Where is his cape? (The matador, not the bull.)
4. Why are the socks pink? Or is this a photoshop because IMO the socks should match the cape lining or be black like other dress socks.

Grammar counts because I say so. Thank you in advance for participation.

Edit: Because "grammar counts" goes both ways so that last sentence should say "Thank you in advance for you're participationing."

Both of the items are crudely photoshopped dildos covering up a pair of banderillas in the banderillero's hands and a banderilla that has already been harpooned in the bull's shoulders. The idea came from a red-text someone gave me where they photoshopped that same dildo (first gis result) onto a picture of me in lieu of a tie. I thought it was hilarious and I then later thought up this av idea to go along with a name change to something I came up with in college to piss off homophobic kids in Xbox live.

That's one and two; three is because that man's a banderillero. A banderilla (literally little flag) is a harpoon covered in bright paper mâché. The end's about 15cm long if I remember and 6 of them are stabbed into the bull as part of the second phase of the fight. I'm on my phone but I can make a thread about bullfighting later to explain further what all this ancient crap means. But he does not use a cape. Btw the red cape used in the last third of the fight is literally called a crutch.

4. Tradition. The idea was to wear the most garish thing possible (the suit itself is made from heavy brocade woven with golden thread) as a sign of arrogance and it's just stuck since the 18th century.

Also matadors all wear ballet flats, have a squire, and have rat tails that are cut off when the bullfighter retires or dies. It's literally the gayest thing I know and it's awesome.

The repugnant spanish tradition of bullfighting has three stages.
The first one , tercio de varas features matadores with pink capes.They try to direct the bull to it and avoid being gored to death meanwhile they study the bull so they can decide how many time are they going to be piked in neck.
Next the second phase is the tercio de varas , in which supporting matadores try to stab the bull in the neck with banderillas.
The last one is the tercio de muerte:the main bullfighter torea the bull with a red cape and then kills it.

Every single thing about is repugnant.Death to spain.

Not really but I've learned through time to be objective and funny about things and let the reader decide for themselves what they think about the subject manner.

Like what precipitated all this? There's always been yahoos whining and moaning about how much the forums suck. Why is there all this drama now? Did something happen (other than aartrek being a pedo)?

Idk but I saw in a GWS vegan cooking thread that the OP had a big scary looking paragraph saying "stop arguing about honey, it's not vegan" and I've been laughing at that forever.
