Wtf. Yeah I might be done with Dan Harmon too. Harmonquest and Rick and Marty are good but what a piece of shit response
Quote
That Dan Harmon reply sounds 100% like something Rick would say in the show. Guess he didn't quite get the theme of the third season himself.
Quote
I'm like 99% sure Rick is Dan Harmon's self insert. People need to pull him away from twitter and get him some help.

Ugh. Léon is legit my favourite movie. Well, not anymore. Fuck off Besson you fucking creep.

Leon is my favorite movie, but I can't believe the old guy who made a movie about an old guy wanting to bang a young girl would go out and bang a young girl!

unless theres some secret directors cut im unaware of, you need to watch leon again.

It's the other way around but it's not hard to wrap your head around "older dude who likes young girls makes a movie about a young girl wanting an older dude" maybe being a not-even-sorta metaphorical fantasy

And deservedly so.

It nailed a crapton of things right. A groundbreaking new Ip that openened doors and shattered barriers that stood in the way of female enpowerment.

Its also got the best story and gameplay in my opinion this year, by quite far.

It will be refreshing to see it win over another Mario and another Zelda. Whose both are established franchise that have been going on since more than 15 years.

Its important that Horizon wins as many GOTY as possible.

I love how every new game with a female lead is always the first game in female enpowerment just ignoring everything else before it.

If they truly practiced what they preached, they wouldn't have anything to do with NeoGAF.  Why post on a website whose owner bragged about sexually assaulting a woman in a bar? I give some of them the benefit of a doubt that they don't know about the stuff with EviLore but we know for a fact many of them do.

It's like the BCT, who everyone knows has an offsite chat (not to mention their thread), yet some of their prominent members were borderline running around claiming the multiple news stories about Amir0x were some kind of alt-right hoax.

I'd say anyone posting in the OT in general knows there's two sets of rules/standards/whatever. Especially if they have like five or more posts a day. Unless they're huddled up entirely in certain community threads that are as well cloistered as this one is versus the rest of The Bore.

I love that GAF is shocked that noted alcoholic, gambler, and womanizer Ben Affleck isn't a 100% pure soul because he's a hardcore Democrat and made some movies they like.
Though I do believe there's enough young/naive members that stuff like this shocks them.

Like the Harmon "fans" I quoted above. Yeah, I can believe enough of them don't know/remember that Harmon got fired from Community in the first place for throwing shit fits and being in general unhinged at times, that was five years ago. And the Chevy Chase stuff wasn't all Chevy, who lord knows is difficult to work with, but widely acknowledged it was the two of them.

Him insulting a random internet person (and telling them their employer sucks) who insulted him is about the least shocking thing Harmon could have done, but you'd think he voted for Bernie and Jill Stein. (And I agree with the girl that he's mostly a hack.)

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Of course, I also don't worship single personalities to where I know there were multiple writers and actors who were involved in developing Community into what it was not to mention the rest of production.

My favorite episode for example was "written by" Megan Ganz, who apparently now is at IASP.

It's just...it really seems like the majority of Gaffers can't comprehend that Democrat/progressive boosters can also be shitty people, and therefore are extra shocked and offended when something comes out about them, despite years of evidence and talk beforehand. Ben Affleck has been a KNOWN alcoholic, degenerate gambler, and womanizer for 20+ years now, with multiple instances of him being loaded and groping women on camera and cheating on his wife. Also having a brother known to do similar things.

There was a book on Harvey Weinstein in like...the early 2000s documenting his behavior with women. Bill Cosby's rapey tendencies has been a known and joked about thing in comedy circles since at least the 80s, and years before Hannibal made it mainstream, it came up on quite a few big podcasts like Joe Rogan Experience as something everyone in the comedy community knew about forever. Then, you know, Bill Clinton, who has multiple rape allegations and used his ultimate power as leader of the free world to get an intern in the White House to blow him, a woman who Hillary then spent years attacking and turning other women against her instead of seeing her as a victim to her clearly predatory husband, both of whom happened to have received millions of dollars from Harvey Weinstein.

There's a whole generation of people who legitimately think all people who vote Republican are terrible people, and all people that vote Democratic are great people, and anytime they see the opposite they can't comprehend it. Shit is absurd.

How is a smooth penetrating rocket going to claw back all the sperm from competing males (and only from them) in the gang rape?

I've seen the sentiment before that the human penis head is shaped that way so that when you orgasm, you inject your sperm in the last thrusts and on the pull out the head is scooping away any foreign sperm. I never put 2 and 2 together to associate this with gang rape. With how vile men still are several thousands of years after "civilization", this would not surprise me at all since we've been around for at least half a million years.

I'm no scientist though.

Honest question for everyone: how can you read this and not be devoured by the feeling that you're obligated to try to do something about it?

I'm 25. Working at my first job as a programmer. When I read this I just feel like I'm doing the wrong thing with my life. I'm trying to get back to my work in the middle of the day and it all just feels so insignificant right now.

People will say that I should just donate, but that feels like such a cop-out. Donating and good wishes is what everyone does, and look where it's gotten us. It feels morally wrong for me to not try to do everything I can to help people who are going through this sort of suffering.

I'm happy with my personal life. I have a boyfriend, a dog, and my mom, and I love them all very much. But that only makes me think about how I would do anything to protect them. I would do anything for my boyfriend because we love each other. My mom would do anything for me because we love each other. These are relationships that mean so much to me, and here they are being ripped apart on a scale that defies comprehension. Mothers losing sons, lovers losing each other. If I realize how powerful these relationships can be, if I would do anything to preserve them for myself, shouldn't I try to preserve them for other people?

I can always try to look away. I can look into my boyfriends eyes and play video games and laugh and focus on all the happiness around me. But this is also part of reality. Looking away doesn't make this suffering any less real. These atrocities are as real as anything I experience myself. Looking away is lying to myself.

My image of Stump behind the keyboard has certainly changed.

jesus christ, i clicked your post link thinking the sentence you quoted was the entire post

stump is the type of poster that considers himself much smarter than he actually is.  but that's not exactly an astute observation as anyone can see that from just skimming over a few of his snarky, long-winded novels.  this guy probably pulls in about 20-30k a year; just some completely average to below average joe in every facet of life

his moderator status on that forum is almost certainly his only position of power, so he uses it to reinforce the belief that he's a really smart dude
 
that's not the worst part.  the worst thing about it is that he genuinely believes people read them
