  1. Saw Kingsman: The Golden Circle. Really enjoyed, most fun I've had with a movie in a long time.

     

    Whiskey was badass.

  2. Holy crap @ that Kiawe/Brock fight. Brock took off his shirt, and EPIC MANLINESS ENSUED.  I have a whole new respect for Brock now.

      only once?

      Brock, my man. I'm disapointed

  3. Congrats gamefreak, you got people actually interested in USM now.

      They know what they do. People saying that Dusk Lycanron "ruined" the game when it was announced was just them starting up slow

      Hopefully, they won't spoil half the new mons like they did with the original S/M trailers.

  4. Mineta is the worst character in the MHA class.

     

    However, I disagree. 

  5. Always knew pewdiepie was an obnoxious twat. Glad to see it further confirmed, as well as being a racist POS. His antisematic thing looks even worse now.

     

    Fame doesn't make one any less of a fool, I suppose.

      Lol multiple walls of text over someone on the internet saying a bad word

       

      meanwhile my neighborhood is being ripped apart by the wrath of nature

      I don't consider myself Pewdiepie fan. I have watched some of his videos, but I don't actively follow his content.

       

      What I aimed to do was to show you how the critique or, in this case slander, you apply on him can be applied on you just as easily. Calling people racist "POS" isn't going to stop racism, it's sort of a "crybully tactic".

       

      As far as I know the (mainstream) media was rather interested in Pewdiepie when he made the "nazi joke". So it's not like the actions of public figures are ignored. Heck, some Youtubers have even been arrested based on the video evidence they themselves provided. Then there are people who raise awareness. Let's say someone is advocating for ban on whale-hunting. Does this person achieve their goal by yelling how whale-hunters are stupid a-holes?

       

      You are correct on that judging serves a purpose in improving. However, that alone is not what fuels improvement or change. There's more to exchange of ideas than judging. Simply put, exchange of ideas and revolutionary inventions are means of improvement. I'm sure you're aware of this, but just to be sure:

       

      "Earth is flat."  

      "No it's not you idiot. Go in a hole and die."  vs.  "Actually, based on current evidence it's not flat at all. It's round."

       

      The difference here is painfully obvious, but I'm merely providing an example.

       

      Good for you for calling him out. With that said, I think your use of insults didn't do you any favors. It made you look like you decided to vent out in a fit of anger. There's a difference between arguing emotionally and emotional arguments (arguments based on emotion).

      If someone is telling you the earth is flat in 2017 despite  widespread scientific evidence proving it's not, logic and understanding is not going to persuade them lol. They don't believe the world is flat because of scientific proof, they believe the world is flat DESPITE evidence of it not being so. The scientific facts are "wrong" and whatever little fantasy world they've created for themselves is what truly matters, and everyone else are just blind to the truth or whatever. There's a reason flat earth truthers often believe in other crazy conspiracies and have bizarre beliefs or political views. They're past the point where reasoning and logic is going to work, sad to say. 

       

      A lot of racists still believe certain races are sub-human/don't have souls/whatever, despite scientific evidence showing otherwise(well not for souls of course lol, we don't even know if those exist!).  While some bigots can definitely be persuaded away from their beliefs, there's a slice who frankly don't care about any of that and from my experience dealing with them bigots think more emotionally anyway with the only "science" they're interested in being psuedoscience and statistics that support their worldview. You think those guys at charlottesville were willing to sit down and have nice long talk? Nah, they were very much racist POS(I surely hope you're not going to get at me for calling THOSE guys that lol) who frankly don't care about anything that doesn't support their own racist worldview. I feel you misjudge the importance of logic and knowledge in most people's everyday lives or worldviews.  Just look at the internet, access to information like never before in any point of history. You'd think we'd all be geniuses, but alas, we have people still believing in flat earths and social darwinism. 

       

      Now I'm not equating Pdp to those charlootesville guys, at least he hasn't shown himself that level of depravity thus far, but am making the point that such beliefs and behavior cannot always be turned from via logic and reasoning  since they are at their basis counter logical in the first place. Pdp is a 27 year old, same age as me, he's well old enough to know that intentionally calling people *****rs(cuz he mad!) is a shitty, racist thing to do and knows very well he's going to be judged as a shitty, racist person because of it. Now from what he does here on is up to him, and being young he's got plenty of time to redeem himself, but as of now, I feel any "outrage" and criticism directed towards him is very well deserved, especially when you take him being a "face of youtube"  As for getting mad at him doing this, why exactly is this a bad thing? It seems pretty normal to get mad at someone being a racist(especially aggressively), and to somehow equate this  to being as bad as being racist itself or somehow looking bad itself seems rather silly. 

       

      What gets me moreso than his actual act are the people trying to downplay it though(much like trump's supporters who tried to play down his blatantly  racist crap), or even worse defend it. It shows a complete lack of accountability and it's pretty pathetic that people in 2017 are going to try and justify a white guy angrily calling someone a fucking n*****r simply cuz he mad.   People have and are in  every right to get mad at him, call him a racist, a twat, an idiot, a buffoon, etc. He knows this, and what he does next or how he comes out of this will either prove them right even more or give him the opportunity to improve as a person and prove he's not the fool he's currently now. 

      ----

      Also, Eagle sucks your neighborhood is being torn apart, but like is the world gonna stop and nothing else matters now? Plus you know it's just not a bad word, shit is just a bad word, and had he called the guy  "a fucking shit" no one would care. You're definitely falling into the downplaying thing, though in your shoes I can see why it's not a big deal to you atm so I'm not as bothered as the ones in the paragraph above.

       

      But no really man, hate that you're suffering through that storm. Nasty stuff, how long are you in the shelter?

  6. I have a list now for my favorites of each type, which makes answering this a lot easier lol. Clefable has dropped a bit admittedly since gen 7 lol. Other faves are Drapion, rimbombee, buzzswole, eevee, Leafeon, salazzle, Escavalier, whimsicott, Gigalith, Gliscor, and Megawile.
  7. TIL Nature can be disappointing because I didn't see much hype in the eclipse. I didn't even notice when it happened :/

      Tbh same. But, I still watched some livefeed of it.

      They say it will be too cloudy in my area, unless things clear up.   orz

       

      I honestly forgot it was happening until last night.

  8. Sonic maniaaa hypppppppeeeeee!!!!

  9.  Anybody still believing the fantasy that all sides are as equally bad/to blame as the other needs to take a nice, good look at what happened in Charlottesville and face reality that, no, there is ALWAYS a worse side or a worse option and that by condemning everyone, you only further empower those people.  And screw Trump and his supporters since this is yet another awful consequence of his actions.

     

     

    1. Zargerth

      Zargerth

      Unless I'm mistaken, you seem to claim Trump and his supporters are to blame for what happened. I don't think they are directly at fault for actions of (probably) mentally unstable or disturbed individual. There's a difference between a person using something to justify their actions and someone being encouraged to do something. I don't approve of attacks like this, but I don't approve fallacies like this either.

      Oh how I wish everything is as simple as "You're scum!" and "I'm just!"

  10. ARMS' Twintails is a wonderful use of assets. Good job Nintendo.

  11. White nationalism is definitely on the rise throughout the first world and doesn't deserve the slightest bit of space to fester, so don't merely excuse that nonsense whenever you personally see/come across it or someone blatantly defending it(like how free speech obsessives seem to do, intentionally or not) , IRL especially call it out for what it is,even if it's your own family member.Not that they'll always listen but it's bad to let them think that crap is normal.

  12. GiTS flopping doesn't surprise me at all. 

     

     

  13. As obnoxious and terrible the Sonic Fanbase is, the Sonic Hatebase is worse.

    1. seki108

      seki108

      Really, the same goes for most hatebases.

  14. bibiddybopdoobop Scaramoush instantly became one of my favorite Samurai Jack antagonists lol. JACK IS BACK and it's glorious.

  15. Xenoverse 2 is surprisingly a lot of fun. I'm addicted to it and now I want to watch a bunch of Dragonball stuff lol. Probably the most fun I've had with a DBZ game.

  16. Tyrium is one of my favorite RWBY characters.

    1. doombotmecha

      doombotmecha

      yeah. "crazy" is a hard character type to do well, especially since it's so subjective. compare Heath Ledger's Joker to Jared Leto's, or either of the two of them to borderlands-style crazy ie Kled from LoL or The Worm from warframe.

       

      In his introduction scene, where everyone meets at sable's place, he mostly just came across as a jackass. I have to say, I like mercury way better as a "assassin with no respect for human life" just because of his pulp-fiction-esque intro with Emerald.

      I prefer Qrow mostly because he annoys Goodwitch and Winter (and shows Weiss that she's not the first "Ice-Queen"

      Weiss may be the Ice Queen to most, she's my Snow Angel

  17. And with ciel beat(took only 2 tries too) I can finally start episode 16 proper.

     

     

  18. These are excellent. Loving that serra pose especially.
  19. You're not the only one and you have every right to be. The man is a freakin disease and has only brought out the worst of this country and will continue to do so. Make America Hate again indeed. Dude is lower than pig shit.

  20. Saw Rogue One and TBH it's probably bottom 3 Star Wars movies for me personally.

  21. Is Final Fantasy 15 worth checking out?

    1. Marcello

      Marcello

      I'm only a few hours in but I'm really enjoying it so far! I wasn't sure about combat when I played the demo but things are really good now I'm playing the actual game imo

    2. Maelstrom

      Maelstrom

      I think it's worth getting. A lot of the dialogue is enjoyable and I'm always looking forward to the next battle. But I'm not that far into it and might have to restart anyways.

    3. Monochrome_Complex

      Monochrome_Complex

      Cool, might consider picking it up then. Thanks!

  22. glitchcity's sycamore's theme remix is really nice. Can't believe I never noticed it before. Her Lusamine one is really good too.

    1. Wolfox

      Wolfox

      gladeon battle remix when again?

  23. Remember guys: don't support nazi sympathizing websites.

    -cough- Myanimelist -cough-

    1. BIGJRA

      BIGJRA

      what did they do???

    2. Okami

      Okami

      So if I'm getting this right, a writer associated myanimelist with posted a countdown list on their forum about "Kicking Nazi Ass" as it was called but some admins/editors got rid of it because it was too political? 

    3. Alex

      Alex

      so they're just keeping the site about anime and they are not actually nazi sympathisers and you're finding one action to call them that.

      nice job there.

  24. Cultist underground continues to be the worst part of Reborn. I hate it so much.

    1. Personthing

      Personthing

      Route 1 and the woods surrounding it tho.

    2. BIGJRA

      BIGJRA

      Me too. I have to disable cheat engine super speed to get through the guards and then open my .txt file with all the codes in it because I don't wanna reread all those books again. It's a great area just when you're on your eighth run you just wanna skip it and get on with it.

    3. Monochrome_Complex

      Monochrome_Complex

      I actually never bother with the woods too much in route 1 but I kind of like the pokemon interactions in it, plus the tauros/Bouffalant are fun to punch on. After 7th street(which is great really) Luna's chapter just becomes sort of a slog. All the rock smashing in Iolia valley is absurd. There's no reason those green crystals should keep re-spawning and then having to smash the red walls twice just adds to the tedium. Her field isn't particularly interesting either. It's probably my least favorite chapter of Reborn overall.

       

      At least it's over.
