Before the K-On GAF (or IRC) was a thing, the PokeGAF IRC for a while almost became pretty much K-OnGAF. Some people like Chet was so perverted, and he would often spam the same stupid K-On GIFs everyday. It was absolutely annoying, I ended up leaving til that whole shit settled down.

Oh and his IRC name is permanently The_Tits_Of_Mio_[whatever her last name is]. His name has been like that for 3 years and probably counting.

is K-on like Azumanga Daioh on roids with tons more fanservice? Cause I felt sketch even watching that...
Only watched like... the first 2 episodes before no longer giving a shit about it. I don't remember if there was any fanservice, it seemed like just a slice of life targeted towards the female demographic that just happens to attract a bunch of weirdos. I could be wrong though, but that was the impression I had initially.

Hmm...I'd say it actually probably has a bit less fanservice than Azumanga, but it's a bit more cutesy. Basically they just spend most of the episodes eating cupcakes and talking about how fun it is to be friends or whatever, thus popularizing the "cute girls doing nothing" genre.

Nice of GAF to talk about smoking and shit when the dude didn't even do it. The immaturity jfc. Certain sexual behaviors lead to cancer, there's nothing wrong with raising awareness about HPV. Cervical cancer is caused by the same thing, I don't see people laughing about not using rubbers.

This justice system...

In digging into this through various articles, I found that North Carolina is one of two states that uses 16 as the age where a person can be tried under adult criminal charges. However, for the purposes of sexual activity, he's still a minor. So, in effect, he can being charged as an adult for exploiting a minor, even though the perpetrator and the victim are the same person.

He already made the mistake of playing the Twin Snakes version. All the charm MGS1 has gets replaced with a different and much worse brand of cheese.

If he can't play a much easier version of MGS1, which already has really easy stealth gameplay, he should just call it quits.

The funniest thing about that guy is he's a huge trance fan, iirc. One of the most hedonistic types of music out there with plenty of 'idol worship' (DJs doing Jesus Christ poses, "God doesn't think he's Oakenfold" jokes) and compilation titles like "In Trance We Trust" and "Universal Religion".

Though I do remember some dude in college who was really into trance and later turned out to be a hardcore evangelical. Don't know what it is about stuff like this that draws out the crazies:

I would agree that people who believe homosexuality is wrong would actually feel extremely uncomfortable performing the marriage and would take a stand unless they could come up with some contrived logic about how allowing people to commit a sin isn't itself a bad thing. But it's their fault if they took a job enforcing American law and expected it to always fit their religious beliefs.

It's not like Trance is really big on any coherent message though. The name says it all as to why it caters so much to any New Age, Goa-whatever and religious types.
Besides I guess you could be homophobic and still dig House tracks. Well, the ones that don't have explicit tracks.

It kind of deserves the backlash. It dosen't feel like an actual MGS game and the open world aspect feels unneeded. I mean the story is boring and so pointless. The structure is so strange and disconnecting. The the open world is so pointless and really tedious. So far the two boss battles I've played have been better then PW's garbage, but hardly anything to write home about and the Quiet one is supposed to be the best. The game in general just lacks so much of the MGS personality. And really fuck Mother Base.

Skip MGS . This game has aged terribly and unless you are already a fan of the series, there isnt much in it.

People rushing through a 30-40 hour game (if you try to complete it as fast as possible) in the span of three or four days sorta taints the criticism revolving around repetitiveness. This is a sandbox game with very little story or plot, and there's so much shit you can unlock and all that stuff influences how you have fun in the sandbox.

This isn't like GTA where you play linear missions that are completely guided, where the fun comes from raw spectacle or appreciation of the open world. The fun in MGS V comes from experimentation and finding out new ways to have that fun.

 
OH!
