Yep, it's official. At least 35% of GAF are complete and total morons.
didn't feel like making a thread in OT for this cause I didn't want #FFFFFF opinions on this
but, https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/27/opinion/black-people-are-not-all-living-in-hell.html?_r=0
this tidbit is super interesting, and has confirmed a lot of my thoughts regarding educated blacks tendency to segregate wealth outside of poor black neighborhoods (some of which they come from)
rest of the article is pretty interesting as well

Its that time of the month for Gaf when everyone wants to 1up the last person in who can say the most ridiculous thing.
Best of luck to ya getting into all the panels. Hopefully there's quite alot to see on the floor
2 things, i wonder if it growing because wealth among blacks is growing, and i am not shocked "making it out" is real.
And that's just being generous.

GAF is just losing it these past few days. What the hell......
Some folks need to put down the controller and pick up a book some times
it reinforces the fact that under capitalism there will always be an impoverished class. And by nature in America, capitalism is inherently racialized. Most growth to wealth is going to come to those who already had it.

Right? G'damn. I really naively thought nerds were the accepting, inclusive bunch when I was in middle/high school. But growing up, it's only become more and more clear that too many of those same people I hung out and shared hobbies with are just completely tactless and insulated/self-absorbed.

Even so, you'd think, socially, life experience would help them out at least a little bit. Go outside for once, learn from and talk to people with different experiences, opinions, level of education etc.
It's stunning how quick the decline has been. Or maybe I'm just noticing it more.

She got to breathe through her skin tho. Amazing writing. Perfectly justified. Thank God for Kojima.
Nah it's got worse, people are more outspoken with their shit now. It doesn't help that you don't have a mod who just tells it how it is and then bans the dude. All we got now is a modbot .

Threads are lasting longer to produce fewer bans from increasingly looks like purposeful fuckery
When you ask people if they are a feminist or not and they bring up charts and statistics

There's only so much work he can do. That's why he retired in the first place.
I get that, we need more people to step up.

How do you feel about MvC:I?

Mokujin design is so good that the only way it could improved was making him into higher tier materials like silver and gold or giving him tits and also a mustache

Ugh..Looks like that's on my daughter's list of "game I'll play for a month, then forget about" birthday presents..
Can't be taking away their..nah. Imma keep it clean. But you know what I'm saying. Folks go through weird fantasy trips with media..extra nasty with that particular character.
Find us this weekend, man, c'mon.
Oh God. Hopefully it's better than 3.
depends on what those new controlls are about
Heh.

I just don't really enjoy the game. Characters are usually cool..just not my thing. Thank goodness for being a multisystem family lol..
Yeah..was curious why you hate us. Even Village graces us peons with a visit from time to time.
I like Harley because she's clearly far more capable than anyone gives her credit for.
I also find it kinda weird when people idolize her and Joker's relationship.He's tried to kill her/left her to die on multiple occasions and clearly cares more about Batman than he does about her. Those shouldn't be relationship goals. She's far better off with Ivy.
If you want the ideal relationship of two really fucked up people, look at Gomez and Morticia Addams. THAT'S an ideal relationship.

Yikes. Where is this convo happening?
Love Harley but her freeing herself from the Joker and that abusive cycle and going on to explore her sexuality/actually develop a truly romantic and caring relationship with another villain has made her a lot more intriguing and dynamic.
Being a punching bag sidekick was mildly funny for a bit but certain comics and BTAS episodes made it clear how sad and kind of stuck the character was. One of the best Harley eps in BTAS was the one where she was released from jail and tries to turn over a new leaf minus the Joker. She stopped being defined by the Joker and started to form new relationships. It was fantastic. She's great as the fun-loving dopey foil to Batman's stoic persona. People who love Harley because she's the Joker's sexy lapdog really scare me.
Nah, it's not like that. Just gotta renew my subscription once again.
