At one point she tells me that an ex-bf of hers told her she had a "whore name". I scoffed and said "oh come on, that's not a whore name." She turned to me and asked "Yeah? so what does my name sound like then? You seemed to imply something there". "Uhh... a stripper?"

It's also a common mistake to think Trump won the working class. He barely did. He won the upper classes to a much more significant degree. It's an irksome liberal habit to frame fascists' appeal as something for the working class because hurf durf we are smart enough to see through the smokescreens but the fact is that most fascist voters know precisely what they are voting for. The true elephant in the room is the craven media-industrial complex that enables the rise of fascists by letting them dictate the terms of the public conversation.

I used to work for an international company in Brussels and the signs in the cafeteria were in French and English, however, most of the kitchen staff spoke only French, so they translated "crudités" into "CRUDITIES" which was pretty funny. I imagined the cook peppering my food with insults and profanities.

Do any of these goons, or the puke guy(s), the forlorn goon looking at the lady in the basement, that neckbeard with the pipe, etc. in short, do any of those people still post here at all? I sometimes get the impression that people who were quite active here between 2000 and 2007 sort of disappeared. The most 'famous' goon.jpgs are all from that era, and technology back then didn't do them any favors either because while digital cameras were already a thing, most of them were poo poo and the average person was still very bad at making good photographs.

Yeah. I mean, I've been around here for 10+ years, too. I also did go to a few goon meets and I actually got to know a then-girlfriend through these here forums, but even around 2011 (when all of this transpired) we had the good sense not to share any embarrassing photos and most of the people I met were quite nice, if a bit off-centre. The most Extremely Online goons tended to be from before that era, with the attendant edgelordships and all that, but even then SA did play a role in making me reconsider a lot of my previously unreflexive centre-left political views, propelling me into hard-left territory. Anyway, content:

Riatsala posted:Which is a shame because it's a great term to describe all the corporate Pride bullshit that gets trotted out every June for naive gays such as myself. Ironically that is something chuds will never mock as "virtue signaling" because it's too overt. A lof of their ilk genuinely seem to believe that pro-LGBT+ activists, feminists, environmentalists, etc. don't genuinely support the causes they espouse because chud ideology itself is a barren wasteland where all kinds of bullshit has currency so long as you don't say too openly that what you really want is to see black people, women and minorities suffer. Conversely, it's why so many well-meaning progressives fall into the trap of wanting to debate alt-righters and nazis. That almost never works because they are either so smooth-brained / insane that they have no shared concept of reality, or it's just a way to keep the bullshit wheel of somewhat plausible deniability turning. Like, for a few years I was the moderator of a fairly large online gender/feminism discussion group and some men were incapable of seeing my engagement as anything other than some ruse to get laid.

I guess they based this version of Monopoly solely on his stand-up shows and they got someone's nephew to draw the artwork. He also turned into an unfunny right-wing shithead about 15 years ago.

I read the Harry Potters at around age 24. The middle chunk of the series is particularly well-written, with long stretches of pure page-turnery, and her depiction of Voldemort as a pure sociopath is at times bone-chillingly accurate. However, the first two novels are bad and awkwardly written. She got very lucky they were ever published and she got enough time to find her creative footing. When she was done writing about Harry Potter though, she seemed to have come to a mental standstill so her mindset is basically one of a late W. Bush-era liberal. Unfortunately she's doubling down on that so now she's simply becoming part of the monster of regressive cultural attitudes. This sort of stagnation doesn't happen only with YA, middlebrow or fantasy authors. There are similar examples from more high-brow strata like Jonathan Franzen or satirists like Douglas Coupland, who seem to be stuck in a never-ending Gen X loop and don't realise they are, in fact, The Man now.

xtal posted:Sports are homophobic Simultaneously they are also very homo-erotic. Like, whenever people question how weird it is that I am both a big Eurovision fan and a big fan of the FIFA/UEFA Championships, I tell them that both events are very similar to some extent: the outsized nationalism, the kitsch, the drama, the mass spectacle and yes, the homo-eroticism. In terms of money wasting/peak performance however, F1 takes the cake. These are likely the most well-rounded athletes to exist even if their overall condition only accounts for like 1% of their success, all the rest is due to their teams and their cars, both of which are an absurd waste of money. It's also why I like F1 because if you're going to do something gaudy and wasteful, best to go balls to the wall with it.

Most other bumper stickers are apolitical and tend to either refer to kids or hobbies. But yeah I don't know of any other Western nation that gets so insane with bumper stickers as the Americans do.
