From now on you're only allowed to pretend to be what you already are. Makes sense.multijoe posted:Given the previous few pages discussion I would like to clarify that blacking up of any kind to dress as a black person is blackface and you should definitely not do it!!

if as a white person you have to put on makeup to go in costume as michael jackson or sammy davis jr then both your costume and mimicry skills suck raw rear end. it is so incredibly easy to do a michael jackson costume, just a fedora and shiny glove will do it. say 'hee!' at people. not complicated!Super Deuce posted:From now on you're only allowed to pretend to be what you already are.

Would that be offensive? The afro would be the same thing as wearing makeup. Is the rule you can only dress as later lighter Michael if you're white? Or can we treat things with nuance on an individual basis?

Super Deuce posted:Alternatively, let's treat the behavior as racist, not the appearance? how about both? i can't see any distinction between behaving in such a way that your appearance becomes racially offensive as if they are distinct concepts. maybe if someone passed out at a party and they woke up with an afro glued to their hair as a joke, this would be a useful hypothetical to dig into. i also don't know what nuka zeus is so i'm just going to assume yes

So, what is everybody's favourite scenes in the show? I think the end of of The Gang Reignites the Rivalry is one of the best comedy scenes produced, when they reveal they had so little faith in Dee they'd already factored in her choking and poisoned her just to secure their revenge against the frat boys, absolute genius

System, Charlie does this weird hand gesture when Dennis is explaining it on the second N.

I also loved Mac coming out to his dad but that was not funny but beautiful and I cried so much. Big edit: Also to the ongoing discussion since I’m 100% the guys arguing nuance are white. Imagine my mates and I are hanging out on Halloween and all of us are dark skinned. You don’t know us at all but you walk in painted up. Would you worry if we were offended? Would you understand if we didn’t accept the nuance argument and just saw blackface? Would you honestly feel safe wearing blackface around us? Would you really? Why not? If you 100% think you will be safe then I encourage you to dress up next Halloween and I’ll help you find a cool place to hang out. Not saying ban the episodes as I find them funny but, sweet buggery Christ, this argument went on and on. Didn’t want to say anything but felt like I should.

I find it very relatable while also being oddly heartwarming to see the four of them just getting along having a good time. They're also really good singers so that elevates it even further. It's hard to pick all time favorite scenes as there are so many to choose from. Thought I'd just pick the first one that popped into my head. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTqL14T7I8M

Pretty done talking about it, but yea I don't think a threat of violence should stop anyone. Same reason I wouldn't be afraid to wear a Bernie shirt at a Trump rally. So, if I ever wanted to which I don't because it's not me, and I also hate wearing makeup anyways, no a threat of violence wouldn't stop me.

Super Deuce, you're wrong, quit while you're ahead. Blackface is racist no matter what the context or intent behind it is, this is a side effect of minstrel shows/etc being a thing that existed. Maybe it would be more nuanced in a world where that didn't happen, but we live in one where it did. This derail is dumb and if you stop now I can avoid getting any more reports about it, and you can avoid getting probed! Win/win!

It's a very minor bit but I always laugh at the bit at the end of the kitten mittens episode where Mac eats the contract and they all act like they've just completely owned the lawyer... before he reveals that he already made multiple copies of it like most normal people would. They're all just so pleased with themselves for a few seconds.

This might also mean that new episodes will be put up on Hulu the day after they air, which would be nice. They'll probably have even more leeway on profanity now too. I'm just pulling guesses out of my rear end here, though.

Lately I've been getting this sense a lot with shows that I want them to randomly get cancelled so I can be disappointed and get the gently caress over it, rather than watch them decay. Don't get me wrong, I'm pumped every time a new season is announced and every new episode brings me to the TV, but something about four seasons ...I dunno
