discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

I had no idea valentine's wasn't celebrated somewhere. It spread like the plague a long time ago.

The commercialization of Valentine's Day can be traced back to trends started by influential corporations and producers. One of the earliest examples dates back to 1861, when notable chocolatier Richard Cadbury launched the “fancy box” campaign. From heart-shaped candy to jewelry, this extreme holiday-driven consumerism is proving to have lasting effects on the environment and people's relationships with materialistic gift giving. Valentine's Day is the second largest materialistic holiday and is a massive contributor to consumerism.

That tells you how out of touch I have been with things lately. I didn't even know that was going on. Only thing I'm interested in was Metal Gear Delta. Love the Metal Gear series, been playing it since the first on on the NES back in the day. Hideo Kojima is amazing. Just messed up how Konami treated him.

I just played through MGS 1-3 for the first time a couple of months ago. It's a great series. I distracted myself from the The Phantom Pain with Ghost of Tsushima, but plan on getting back to it soon. I know it's kind of lame but I've been watching Metal Girl Solid on YouTube lately and I recommend it to anyone who has played the original Metal Gear.

Fine. I feel like I'm a minion

I'm more like a critter... Click me enough times and I explode!

Welp, gone be gone again for some hours.
Bye everyone, see you all later!

Did @Slumdum ever come back?!

stoic! Slum-tastic?

And I did have a good day, hope you had/have one as well!


Want me to go lock the thread?


I did, it was okay, finally got to see just a tiny bit of the new Digimon game.

Oh yeh, he did.

Welp, off to bed a little earlier than usual.
Bye everyone, have a good rest of your day/night!
See you all tomorrow!

But then he left again!

He speaks the truth -- and just when you least expect it ,,,,,,,,,..............................

I just show them the claws

Not a whole lot. Working and dealing with my knee. Been hurting for about a week now.

Maybe you should make an appointment with @Evil Surgeon - It is so great to have such a skilled doctor on staff here. I think there is only one guy with a simple procedure ahead of you in line

so skilled -- just wish he wore gloves while pounding the spike into this guy's brain

To be fair, MILFs are younger than me. Women my age up are Sabretooths...

We need to clarify for the kids here -- Whilst any woman of breeding age can technically be a "MILF" the actual breakdown is"

Age 18-21: Wildcat
Age 22-29: Lynx
Age 30-39: Puma
Age 40-49: Cougar
Age 50-59: Jaguar
Age 60-68: Panther
Age 69: Pussycat
Age 70-79: Cheetah
Age 80-89: Leopard
Age 90-99: Sabre-tooth Tiger
Age 100+: Lion

And as a life goal -- you need to collect them ALL!

I completely agree, but since every holiday in the US has become an obligatory consumer experience it's hard to care about any of their individual corruptions. At this point we should drop all of the names and just refer to them as Amazon day 1-12.

So I've watched the entirety of Neon Genesis Evangelion in one go now and I feel like I got brain damage somewhere between the end of the show and the 3rd movie. Is the entire thing just an anti-autist propaganda piece?
But honestly I'm glad I finally watched it. Over the years I tried to watch it 3-4 times and always stopped somewhere between episode 6-10. But now that it's finished I have to say very mid.

Yes I said it, Evangelion is mid.

It is mid. It came out at a time when anime was very niche and everyone watched the same trash, so seeing it was more of a community experience. Of course everyone with nostalgia goggles on is going to aggressively disagree.

Kinda thinking mass consumerism isn't a gender issue...

Hmmm the oysters of the midwest.

From what I've heard, the people in the midwest stay as far away as possible from afro-anything.

It's everyone -- Father's day and St Patrick's day are not female biased but are still commercially based.

It is like Real Estate -- location location location -- Iowa?, Missouri? Illinois anywhere south of Peoria? Indiana? -- Hell yes. I remember in my 20s traveling with a black friend where he was not allowed in a restaurant in Indiana. Thankfully a lot of that thinking has eased -- but it is still there. I bought my house 35 years ago - in the original deed it stated that no one could own a home site in this development unless they were white. That part is thankfully ignored now -- but the wording is still in there. If you are not white? you can still climb the ladder of success -- but you start a whole lot further down that ladder than a lot of people realize.

Never really could get past the first few episodes. I like the whole mecha vs esoteric incomprehensible entities bit, but the psychological drama bit just bores me too much.

For sure. Bigotry in any form is repulsive. I was just going for some cheeky word play while having a laugh at the stereotypical ignorance of people from rural/secluded regions. Swing and a miss I guess.

i never understand the story of evangelion. and i feel like being trolled when they suddenly change the story in the movie.

Name yourself Mr. Tearbro and I MIGHT believe it.

As for the reaction... No idea. Is that not the Much Love reaction? Lol

I wouldn't really call it mid, but yeah it definitely is nostalgia that made people like it so much. I think there is merit on watching it once in your life, or maybe I just love being trolled by Hideaki.
