You gotta post the entire quote, man.

quote:

You know when you were a kid and your dad was shaving and you'd pretend-shave beside him because you thought it made you look grown-up? Everything redditors do is that same talismanic grasping at symbols of adulthood and sophistication tinged with an air of desperately overthinking it while completely missing the point.

If I use a real straight-razor and make my own lather with a badger brush then that makes me manly and attractive, even though I have scraggly unkempt hair and I'm 50 pounds overweight. If I wear a fedora it will make me cool and sophisticated, even though I'm wearing it with jorts and a le meme t-shirt. If I smoke an ecig then I look hard-boiled and interesting, even though my baby palate means I have to puff candy-flavored clouds of nicotine water from a robot's dick.

Here's the thing about GBS, it doesn't wait for you to understand. It doesn't think you're special and it will wreck your poo poo if you come in thinking you are. GBS is where you go to kill your little case of Dunning-Kruger

Chances are if you get run out, it's because you're either trying to show everyone how smart, funny and/or original you are when you just simply aren't any of the above.

And as for genesplicer, dude does his job, better than when we had 2 absentee mods while the other was having a meltdown fighting with the ex-mod who is himself is just a walking Chernobyl. Fact is I don't agree with everything the man does, but atleast he's doing SOMETHING

I feel that that should be expanded on with a few of the recent happenings.

Proposal: a hotdog shack busks for startup money on Kickstarter

Reality: A goon cancels christmas for his children to give all his money to an owner who turns out to be an unrepentant racist rear end in a top hat who ignores every kickstarter reward promised. A mod probates people who ask questions.

Proposal: loosen the rules to make GBS more inviting and to have threads about things other than cops, feminism, and news articles.

Reality: Only a fraction as many posters are posting and every other thread is still about cops, feminism, and news articles, only now it's a bunch of middle-aged alcoholics who learned how to exercise in their 30s and are average height with above-average penis girth posting Stormfront memes

The movie opened up here in the UK, I bit the bullet and went to a screening, now before you start bitching at me going "you idiot, you didn't like the movie to begin with, what was the point of paying to go see it if you knew it was bad?"

who said anything about PAYING to see it?



-

Before I went to see the film, I looked for the leaked plotlines from the reddit post and listed each one of them in a check list, I also threw in some other plotlines according to the trailers and tv spots.



I got about half right, but the point is the majority of the movie is pretty much the leak, with some tweaks here and there, so it all checks out.

I even detailed almost everything that happens exactly in the movie, including gags, cameos, sequence of events, and stats.



I was seriously shocked how close the leak was to the final product, I can't believe it was THAT bad. Also Feig and Dippold shoehorn SO MANY references to the original film, you wouldn't last a drinking game around it.

a couple of things I forgot to add, the "usher concert" line wasn't in the final version, and (I might be overthinking this gag) Wiig and McCarthy's white hair is possibly a reference to that line from Ernie "I've seen poo poo that'll turn you white", like...make your hair turn white, don't know if you can make that comparison though.

overall, the movie turned out to be poo poo after all...and you're not missing much.

e: when they played the proton dual pistols slow-mo scene...someone behind me actually clapped for that. I swear I'm not making this up.

Some of that classic hard-edged take-no-prisoners humor that so many people on this site long to return to.

A guy who named himself after an MST3k character, in 2006 posted:

Have you ever noticed that the “Weird” in “Weird” Al is in quotations? That’s because he’s not weird. Following this convention, he could also be called “Funny” Al or “Profitable” Al Yankovic. But “Weird” Al is weird in the same sense that inserting hilarious uses of the words “cheese” and “monkey” into your dialogue would be. Spam! If you laughed at that, turn your computer off and leave this place. There is nothing for you here.

If “Weird” Al provides any service to this world, it’s that he shows us who is truly developmentally disabled. Do you know someone who still listens to “Weird” Al? Is this person over fourteen? If you answered “yes” to both of these questions, sever all ties, burn all evidence, and strategically use a claw hammer on different parts of your skull to eliminate all memories(you may want to read a book about this practice first). “Weird” Al’s parodies are supposed to be the gateway drug to real music, and the denial of Al’s music marks a passage into adulthood where one may say, “I would like to listen to this song, but I no longer want it to be about potatoes.” If real music is sex, then “Weird” Al is the clumsy unfinished preteen handjob, although “Weird” Al fans may not understand this analogy for obvious reasons. I know what you’re thinking, “But my really cool science teacher in middle school loved ‘Weird’ Al and he wore novelty ties and one day he melted a penny with chemicals!” Take a minute to think about this person. I don't know how long you've been away from home but I guarantee you his obituary read "single man slips while mopping studio apartment; eaten by housecats before he can make it to pre-paid cell phone."

If you think “Weird” Al has a place in the fast-paced music world of today, I have news for you: he’s been irrelevant since the invention of karaoke. And since karaoke was invented before he started performing(thanks Wikipedia), Al has always been irrelevant. The day a townie got high in his Camaro and changed Boston’s “More than a Feelin’” to “More than a Peelin’ (being about bananas or some such poo poo)” should have been the day Al vanished from existence, or dropped his musical aspirations to become something more fitting, like the office cut-up at a large packaging firm or the world’s most interesting compost heap.

The expats in the China mock threads seem to either complain about how the Chinese are subhuman bug creatures with the intelligence of a turnip or brag about how much sex they have with them. Often both at the same time. :irony:

Context: roughly 20 pages of arguing about how the guns in Westworld can kill robots without harming humans.

FWIW simunitions aren't danger-free. Sure, if you get shot in the chest with one you won't die. But you'll get a big welt, and it wouldn't be fun. They don't just go "poof" in a cloud of smoke like what happened to Ed Harris in the first episode. They hurt more than paintballs IMO, and if you got shot in the eye with one or something you'd lose your eye.
