The Official Psychoanalysis GAF Thread

[Shadow Mod]

I dunno why but as of late I've been toying around with the idea Needs More Cowbell is in fact not Devolution but someone claiming to be her. Of course this is nonsense, but I can't help what bullshit I think about at 6:30am at work.

What makes you think this?

[Momo]

It's not something I actually believe, it's just a scenario that ran through my mind.

Any movie I don't want to be spoiled on I actively avoid discussion of or articles. I think that's hard for like rabid fans or idiots.

They keep entering the thread because they enjoy the thread's hype circle-jerk.

But the whole hyping thing is ridiculous though. "OMG OMG THIS MOVIE IS GOING TO BE AMAZING". And if it's only going to be okay, then what? What if it's good, but not great? Then what?

Seriously. I'm starting to think that hyping of anything, a game, a movie, is some sort of coping mechanism to deal with loneliness or some shits.

What say you, Devo?

Hype is exactly why I also stay away from movie threads. Avatar (the blue aliens) was hyped to shit, saw it and said to myself "lol what."

On the subject of Curb vs Seinfeld, I prefer Seinfeld by a wide girth. Curb gets really repetitive, is very hit and miss, and always seems to follow the same structure and flow. Larry does something, somebody does something, Larry does something awkward, and they do something awkward back. I will go from laughing my butt off like from the Shaq episode to just staring at the tv, wondering when I should laugh.

On the other hand, there's Seinfeld, which is consistently entertaining, varied in theme and subjects, and social observations. It's the PG version of Curb, but it's far more nuanced and interesting. Somehow, Curb feels more cartoony and less realistic than Seinfeld and feels like "famous actor of the week" fare. I dunno. I really like Curb, but I don't love it like I do with Seinfeld.

EviLore, after hearing how "open" sexuality is in Europe, probably assumed his trip was going to be some kind of Eurofuckfest.  I'm going to assume that his primary purpose of going to Europe was to get laid.

Evi is such a bitch at times. That's not really a bannable offense outside of the thinly veiled insult to Evi's sex life in it. And even that's not really bannable.

Then again, insult Evi or Ami (oh, wait): get banned it seems.

I fully agree. Curb is good, and can be raunchily funny at times. But Seinfeld is classic.

One of my fears that we'll never see a show on-par with Seinfeld again is actually because of how lax the profanity rules on TV have become. Seinfeld tip-toeing around subjects like cunnilingus ("he doesn't do... everything"), pulling your dick out on the first date ("he took it out"), and homosexuality ("...not that there's anything wrong with that") have such a smaller chance of happening today due to how lax things are now. Like on Curb, sometimes the swearing is funny, but it's crasser and makes the show harder to watch and quote with others, especially in mixed company. Whereas with Seinfeld, you can quote any moment -- even shrinkage.

I skipped over man too and the post made more sense that way. Then he's like "oh that's you" when I thought it was obvious it's a woman (me). So now I'm confused and haven't touched it again.

How does Evilore have trouble w/women?

He's gonna be a millionaire (if he isn't already), without ever having to have a real job, so he can spend his time traveling around the world, taking classes, learning how to do interesting things.  He should be incredibly appealing to the opposite sex. 

Even the ears aren't that bad.

Probably gay, both of em.

Though I think evilore's problem is just having no personality or reason for existing outside of owning Neogaf. If his threads designed to show off his money and his gaf celebrity reek of desperation to me then I imagine girls pick up on the desperation as well.

[DCharlieJP]

but bebpo is short

i am short -and- british - which means short -and- bad teeth

and i still managed to get engaged twice, married once, produce some offspring and -gasp- get laid in europe

this isn't a brag thing - i'm largely shite with the other sex, i'm -not- good looking and i haven't a clue how to "pull" but i've still managed to

GO TO EUROPE AND GET LAID

seriously - if you can't get laid in europe i don't know what to suggest... perhaps just go and have that wank cushion industrially welded to your hand because, lets face it, it's spunky sockdrawer wanks from now until retirement.

[pilonv1]

Once you get to a certain age, the feat of just getting laid isn't that spectacular and nothing to be proud of. Especially if you've dealt with any crazy women.

I suspect the audience of this Euro Road Trip still thinks its a big deal.

He doesn't seem like the ''get laid' type.  I can understand that money and status may help engender wanting to go on a fuckfest, but he would seem better served just finding a nice girl.  But the cars and all that just seem like a premature midlife crisis.
