I call what happened to them "getting Piccoloed."
Especially, Neiji. Turn a smart ass, cool antagonist slowly into a boring "serious" background character to play the straight man in some gags.

Because Kishimoto didn't know what to do with half of the characters after the Time Skip. One of Naruto's biggest assets is that most of the Kohona 11 actually had it in them to be interesting characters beyond their already interesting power sets. However, when Kishimoto decided to focus the story on Naruto's and Sasuke's differing paths, there really wasn't any room to develop the rest of the characters.
It's more or less what happened to Dragon Ball after the Saiyans got introduced.
Man, loved Naruto back then. Back when it was about a boy who has everything against him trying his hardest to be someone.
How the writer can't see that
making Naruto some chosen one/reincarnation/prodigy bullshit
Bitch, we post here because we like you.
I laughed way too hard at this.

Shaq's snuggle buddy took the Ice Bucket challenge:
First off, whoever this Nancy Sinatra person is clearly fucking sucks.
Hoopz associates looked very enthusiastic.
LET'S TALK ABOUT HOOPZ LUNG CAPACITY. Getting high must be an event for her. Her arms are more defined than Shaq as well as 65 percent of men walking on the street. Which leads me to my next point. She has to squat a good 225.

I keep waiting for that Sakura moment, but every time she gets a chance to shine, Naruto or Sasuke takes it away from her.
"Yes officer, I overheard her telling somebody that she could "Make it clap" and I'm sure they were talking about guns"
who is this guy?
I liked that he stopped being so crazy but he was boring after the talk because there was nothing left of who he used to be. He still could have been a scary character and kinda unstable. He needed to struggle with that. I found it weird that his 360 change was done the way it was.
Same. I was upset about Neji but the series had long been awful so I was more disgusted that Neji was used to shock fans and get a reaction than be a legit sacrifice ala Jiraiya.
He kinda did. He told him he would change the Hyuga for him and all that... it was pretty lousy of him to be cool with that.
I didn't like how everything focused around Naruto, it's true it's named after him but it was as if everyone had no true relationships with anyone else in their lives to the extent as Naruto. He was Jesus for everyone and that drove me mad.
Everyone was bad in Naruto, to me. Save maybe a few characters. But Kishimoto had a lot of hatred for Sakura, that's for sure. He acts like he has issues with women to the max or something.
Yep, agree 100%. Neji was awesome, but then he changed, got boring and then used as a joke in the end. Tragic but hey, all of it was to me.
Well, at least you're still alive =\

Yeah, the bolded is what I like about the show. I'm pretty much dreading the transformation and slowly see it building up to that.
I've had this feeling from very early on. All the girls are weak and boy-crazy, bordering on helpless. Only villain girls (Sound, Sand) are portrayed as competent.
Jesus... hang in there.

I'm Puerto Rican myself, so I'll get the "oh that's why you like your food spicy!" line every now and then. Most people usually think I'm white with a decent tan, though. Half-german.

Any concept of world development/balance established in part 1 is completely disregarded in part 2
Which is a shame since naruto had a more interesting world than even One Piece at one point. Gets alot smaller in part 2
Which is silly cuz Caribbean Hispanics don't generally like/eat spicy food. I had to grow into it and develop heat tolerance to spicy food after meeting my GF.
Got a laugh out of me:

Fuck. Imagine if Devo didn't rebuff all of Slay's advances and was in the car with him! Could have lost one of my favorite posters.
Got pulled over last week coming from the movies with a friend. Two white cops while my friend was a white female (no Wynning, just a friend). Reason? I turned my high beams on because it was dark and they had just had reports of a gunshot in the area. I LOOKED SUSPICIOUS. I get asked to step out of the car, while they give me the "Good Cop, Bad Cop" routine. I told them, "Look, I just came back from the movies and I'm taking my friend home. My tags are legal, I have a clean record. Can I just go?" They run my registration and let me go. My friend starts crying as I drive her home and she asks why I'm not shaken from the event. My response: "Because I have nothing to fear. I did nothing wrong and have no warrants. If they were expecting me to turn into an Uncle Tom, they go the wrong nigga." I haven't even told my mother about the incident because she would start worrying about me. :/

Sometimes I wonder how safe I keep Timedog honestly.
Slayven, where do you reside and are they worse than NYPD over there? Although I did see some good news recently.
EXCLUSIVE: NYPD stop-and-frisks drop 99% in Brooklyn, while shootings increase* in Brownsville, East New York
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york...shootings-increase-brooklyn-article-1.1905456
*Tiny, marginal increase that it could be coincidence or just about any other reason besides the drop in stop/frisk. Maybe deserves its own thread.

Even King Crab isn't safe? Damn.
There's something inherently devious about a black male driving with a white female that causes cops to assume the worst. Thank God I actually didn't have any outstanding warrants or tickets. I would have gotten the Rodney King treatment the way the cops were grilling me.

you know, every now and then I think back about just how lucky I've been with cops.
How much more black could the thread be?
None. None more black.
I'd like to see the mental gymnastics used to say that only 10-20 more shootings is somehow caused by over 10,000 less stops. They'll probably conveniently ignore the hard numbers and go for the percentages.

hmm...it's actually fairly likely that stop and frisks were preventing SOME shootings somewhere. The vast majority weren't, and it's definitely not worth the complete loss of privacy, but crime going up marginally isn't really a surprise.

There's a joke here about personal hygiene somewhere, but I'm not clever enough to make it.
I've never been so offended by someone shaking their "ass" before

Well, even while driving, you should be wearing some form of clothing. And wash ya ass, man.
But yea, tint is the catchall for pretextial police stops on black men.

Happen to me a while back, cop thought I was a dopeboy cause he came with the dog out and everything. He seen me in my work uniform and made same talk about how long I been there etc etc. He ran my license and gave me a warning about my tint. Had my tint for 5 years and all of a sudden it not the legal percent.
