 Gun Garrison posted:Virginia is for Gun grabbers? There is a protest today at the capitol, because of course they chose the day dedicated to a black leader murdered by a gun to do it. The governor declared a state of emergency fearing violence from so many gun nuts congregating in one place. Stay tuned.

there's a gigantic danger when using a gun as a metaphor. here we have the gun as a rope in a game of tug of war. however, by making the rope a gun, the entire game changes since one end will kill you. it becomes one side trying desperately to point the barrel at themselves as the other side, the side with the trigger, tries to look innocent while holding a gun. the game becomes inherently unbalanced as one side has a gun and the other has a gun pointed at them. also the "good guy and bad guy struggle over a gun" trope only has one use I've ever seen: the bad guy struggles to kill the good guy while the good guy tries to not die. and the good guy is never at the trigger of the gun. basically, by replacing a harmless rope with a gun, garrison unintentionally changed the entire scene but doesn't get paid to care about details like that.

Why the hell do people care so much about Harry and his wife? I understand there’s a weird racism angle, but it feels like everyone is treating this as a big deal when it seems rather mundane. I didn’t think he was even in line for the crown, so the gently caress? Is it as simple as “British media is an easily distracted tirefire”

I didn’t think he was even in line for the crown, so the gently caress? Let's pretend I'm the average idiot in this explanation. I see people living a life that from my outside perspective is a literal fantasy. Rich, famous, literally royalty, doesn't have to do any sort of work except show up for the occasional photo op* And they literally just threw it all away! And now I'm angry, because I would all but kill to be in their position and I never will be, meanwhile, they have it dropped in their lap and loving leave it behind. *Obviously not true, but remember, I'm an average idiot who doesn't know any better It's the same mentality you see when celebrities cheat on each other. "How could he cheat on somebody so friggin' hot!? I would never cheat on her if I were her husband!" It ignores every bit of context and only focuses on the surface area since that's all anyone who isn't involved actually gets to see.

Pakled posted:The reason it came up is because someone who wasn't familiar with the origin of the term "gay abortions" thought the "gay" in the title was being used pejoratively, like we were edgy 00's teens saying "these cartoons are so GAY," so I think keeping "gay" in the title for the thread compiling the worst cartoons doesn't solve that issue. So the title has nothing to do with homosexuality, and is an inside joke mocking an infamous cartoon, and somebody completely unfamiliar with the thread or its history Kramer's in to complain that it's bigoted, and instead of calling them a dumbass who should read and lurk the thread their complaint is being considered as if it's legitimate?
