Yo Slayven, does Runaways get better after the first volume. I read vol.1 of the complete collection where it ends with
Alex Wilder dying and the team regrouping

Ya'll the niggas with issues. That game was hot asshole juice personified. Shit was 40hrs of a bunch of weeaboos' fantasies about a Chinese/Korean/Japanese mixed culture ontop of some nonsensical "Asian sounding" language they threw in there and the worst combat system ever. It had all the trappings of "what weeaboos think about Asian culture" in videogame form. It was basically a bunch of crusty dudes "How we think 'Asia' culture is". From the hilarious character names, to the nonsensical animal spirits that didn't even align with any real mythology, to that cliche wuxia bar tavern fight scene. Shit was basically a blow job to dudes who grew up on animu and wuxia being the closest thing they knew about any of the aforementioned asian countries and just said "fuck it bro, we'll wing the shit outta this!"
Shit was trite as fuck. Bought that shit and had a friend over who was Chinese and as she watched me play, I could feel her burning a hole in my head. I felt bad playing that shit with her right there. Like shit had me feeling so bad I wanted to fly to China and help with inner city youth and poverty. I couldn't even say to her "It's just their take on Asian culture" because she would have hit me with that "Imagine if Bioware made a 'Black culture' game as they imagined black people." She would have hit me with that 100 proof ether. I mean that shit had me second guessing middle school decisions and shit. I felt like I needed to pay reparations to all the Asian people I knew when I played that game. Like I only bought groceries from the Korean mart down the street for like a month after that to show solidarity and shit.

First 2 volumes are best. Rest is so-so.
I am going to be honest with you, I loved the first volume, then it got boring to me until they went back in time around the 26th issue. It got dark and a bit disturbing but good. So if you trudge through a few middling issues it does get great again.
Yeah pretty much

Oh, I guess it just isn't for me because the only thing I liked about it was the concept.

g-fex i'm pretty sure if it's a good or service that can be purchased you hate it
there's literally no other explanation for just how much shit you hate
"i stopped liking stuff after felix the cat S1E4, it's all been downhill since then"
Read Young Justice, shit was fire from start to finish, and had one of the best events of all time. Sins of Youth
That wow is for that Krysten Ritter. I never seen her in such a outfit. I always liked her.
You need to stop overthinking.
I'm tired of this "G-fex hates everything"
Maybe ya'll things you like aren't so great. You ever think of that?

Part of me feel like the Deadpool movie will be successful. His humor fits this generation perfectly.

Brehs, this Cole is nice.
Keeping a list for when you all jump on the bandwagon.

The game was pretty cool. I have fond memories of it. The player character becomes broken as fuck, especially when you level up their weapon.

That punch thread rmeinds me of Old Skool Gaf, when threads would get burned and the grounds salted.
If the budget is like 60 to 80 mill, and you know it won't be

I talked about it with exactly one person at work -- black female coworker who lives over in Harlem. And we just chat about this stuff from having our mutual understanding/observations. The news talks about "major protests in the city" just to create hype and draw eyeballs to tune in the same way they do with a weak hurricane downgraded to simple showers. A few passive hundred or couple thousand people in a massive city of over 8 million people. They've /slowedblocked traffic! Yeah, a small car accident or a bit of road construction does the same thing every week. People are more frenzied for Black Friday, a new Apple product release or just general holiday shopping. I'm not saying absolutely nothing will change since we will probably get bandaid-level stuff like body cameras out of this (which I honestly think were coming anyway, march of technology and all). But this isn't the big moment or tipping point that some have been waiting for where the laws, the cops, everything changes going forward.

I guess it's now "Please Save the Baby"
Lets see:
Hated by folks for irrational reasons
Government harasses him for no good reason
Has several kids he does not support nor raise.
People always report him being "aggressive"
Can't hold down a job because of his record.
Birdman won't release his album so he wants out.

Ritter is straight up wife material fine to me. Shit, she's the only reason I was even remotely excited for that shot "Don't Trust The Bitch in Apt 6" or whatever. Her and Kat Dennings are my TV star crushes.

You can't even trust dudes you kiss on the lips anymore.
But still they won't slurp their homies tho. Smh...
Honestly, I'm surprised Birdman still has that kind of power over Weezy.

I got a big crush on her after She's Out of My League. Like, she outshined the main chick to me and I couldn't really explain why. Something about her look, dem lips and the stank attitude was working for me.
Haven't really seen her in anything since, though.
a non waypool deadpool is good though
Stop living in the past.
If cops are afraid this class will make youngsters think they are bad guys, maybe they, the collective "they", should stop giving kids reasons to think that.
Nothing about Toriyama's career suggest to me that he can or wants to write convincing romance. DB was better off having basically side-stepped the issue entirely.
I don't have the appropriate gif to express my feelings on that tweet.
I was going to say "isn't that one of those parody accounts" but it appears it is not and thus I am rendered sad
This is obvious hyperbole but I appreciated the laugh
dude, thats all you do.

Must be something in the culture.
Ang you know about Korean stuff, why do Korean Dramas run far past what the premise would have allowed? J drams do stuff in 10-12 eps which is perfect, but Korean ones can stretch into the 20s.
