hoobajoo posted:Why are you surprised? It's a great game, I haven't met anyone who played it and didn't love it. Gary from Watch Out For Fireballs and some angry libertarians on tumblr. That's pretty much everyone I have seen dislike it in any capacity, and Gary was just lukewarm, not actually negative.

Sham bam bamina! posted:Ascendant frontpage superstar David "g0m" "no they will not" "yeah actually they will" Dolan wrote a beautiful parody of an Ernest Cline work even worse than his novels (be sure to click play). G0m is a funny dude, but I feel like this is relatively weak largely because the original parodies itself

Man as someone who's been on record as getting annoyed when they go all Californian holier-than-thou, this episode did not bother me at all. I just really liked Collision reading that stupid passage about the beaver while Lose Yourself played

I'm much more annoyed about them constantly bringing up wrestling, and that's mostly J's fault. Yeah surprised it was this rather than one of the many music snob episodes

That said if you start getting annoyed with how repetitive they get in the DS3 season just skip to the other stuff they did because it really doesn't get better.

Sure, though with all the games they play I don't know if they'd have time to read a lovely book for a guest spot Unless it was another Worlds of Power thing

Jay and Mike Sacco are having the times of their lives mocking Ready Player One and it’s one of the best episodes, but the Armada episode is so much worse because Jay and Clsn just sound defeated. This is why those lovely british horror paperbacks they find are goddamn goldmines

Extremely geeky nitpick I will never get an excuse to bring up again: When they did Armor, they acted like the power armored suits were a weird addition to a war clearly based off of Heinlein's Starship Troopers, but they were misremembering because there was also power armor in Starship Troopers, if not in the movie. There, now I may rest easy before someone shoves me in a locker

X-Ray Pecs posted:Didn’t the guy who wrote Armor literally say it was inspired by him reading Starship Troopers and wishing there was more combat? I don't know, all I remember is they were saying it was Starship Troopers mixed with Gundam and I was like, no, bruh, the power armor was part of the original, it's a sin of the father

Guy Mann posted:Last Action Hero, Cable Guy, and Starship Troopers are like the holy trinity of 90s movies that weren't that great but have had people hailing them as underrated gems almost since the day they came out on the grounds that people didn't get that they were satires. And it's like, OK but whether or not people didn't get that these were supposed to be satire that doesn't make them any better as films. Okay

Sham bam bamina! posted:Ran into some true fans at a party this weekend. They were... girls? WoAHHHHH a GIRL who is a GEEK? Time to be creepy and weird about that! Let me accuse them of being secretly men! Man that was the secret worst part of RPO, you can tell Ernest Cline is an old nerd because he doesn't appear to know trans people who will feel like garbage if you accuse them of """faking""" their gender exist. Or he does and doesn't care, but he seems more like an idiot than an active monster, so

I think Spongebob has taken its place as a cultural touchstone right down to the fact that it keeps getting new seasons that nobody on the internet watches and most people agree are pretty bad. Anyway, I hope someone draws a picture of Elmo domming Nelson Muntz and sends it to Jordan Peterson
