Posting in this thread to say thank you to Mr. D Bewildering for the new avatar!

E: hello from the goldmine.

Oh wow, people are still taking them :kiddo:

:smith: It's such a shame he hasn't made more panels though. This whole experience has been like a lesson in using GIMP for me.

This thread is truly amazing, as is Lazerbot's magnum opus. I only wish I could draw worth a good goddamn in order to contribute. (I'm picturing a "Guernica" variation with the many doomed characters from the end-of-Chapter-4 team fight, their distorted agonies representing the ultimate futility of troll war.)

I would kind of rather be the guy in poor form with an avatar I like than...

I mean, congratulations on you sweet avatar.

PS. I can't figure out how to deal with artifacts.
Now, I'm not "educated" or "literate," but there is a specific typeface I'm thinking of, and I can't remember the name. I know it was used in the Renaissance (or possibly based off Renaissance typefaces?), it has a distinctive-looking M, and some fancy letters nerd said it "was the most beautiful font ever" or some poo poo. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I was gonna use that but said gently caress it.

Maybe you're thinking of some form of "uncial," because that's a very beautiful book-hand (and was used for renowned manuscripts such as the Book of Kells), and it does have a distinctive m (which is made with rounded strokes, so that the bottom legs are sort of curved under). Its regular use was way prior to the renaissance (more like 3rd-8th c), but when people want something to look fancy they will often re-use old scripts for just titles, etc. (the word "Prince" does look like uncial.) So I'd look up that.

I just caught up with this thread over the course of a few days and I cannot stop loving thinking about Tails Gets Trolled and how amazing it is.

I also loving loved that Pieta bugs/daffy a few pages back, I was hoping someone would do exactly that.

Bingo.

What a shame. We ruined the best thing ever.
Kind of a catch-22. We either learn about the comic and it stops at the current chapter because the comic creator gets embarrassed, or the comic never gets shared in the first place and it gets completed, but no one ever sees it.

Same thing happened with Chris-Chan, although arguably the comic would've been much less funny without the trolls who discovered him through Encyclopedia Dramatica.

What shall we do with him? A permaban, perhaps? Probate him for a few years? Or...shall we employ a big red custom title? You, the goons of SA, shall decide his fate.
We should donate him a crappy but usable computer so he won't have an excuse but at the same time doesn't get anything valuable out of this whole thing. Maybe thematically 'customize' it a 'little', like a functional P-P-P-Powerbook.

Sonic the Hedgehog attracts the dumbest loving fans, did anybody find a real reason behind why this is?

It was discussed briefly earlier in the thread.

Sonic and his animal buddies are all drawn with extremely exaggerated expressions. If you're the kind of person who has trouble picking up on non-verbal communication such as eye-contact and facial expressions, then the fact that Sonic has huge eyes and amplified emotions might make him easier to identify with than other people.
This is indeed it. It's the same reason why so many autistic kids love the hell out of Thomas the Tank Engine.

EDIT: That combined with the fact that when you're ten, Sonic comes across as the coolest loving thing in the world.

I suspect the reasons why My Little Pony is so popular are similar. There must be a direct correlation between characters' eye size and the intensity of a fandom.

I was diagnosed with Asperger's in my early teens. The psychiatrist was not at all surprised to hear that I loved the poo poo out of Thomas the Tank Engine when I was little. I still have a set of the die-cast toys of the first ten trains somewhere in the attic. :3:

I was never massively into animes or anime figures like Sonic,
