I mean obviously Dragonball Z's enjoyment factor is mostly nostalgia. If it was released today and was paced exactly the same it would be terrible. But it's so cheesy and over the top and I love it.
I think I grew up too fast or something. It used to be my favorite show in, like, late elementary or early middle school
Then one day as I rushed into my home to watch it
It was during the Cell bullshit I believe
I realized that every fight was exactly the same and that it took like a month for anything to happen and I was just like, "This is stupid," and stopped watching.
It apparently takes me five pages of [Chat] to shower. I have returned all squeaky clean. I'm not sure what it says about me that I am absolutely giddy about my shampoo being made from, and smelling of stout. It's not like I'd think to wash my hair with Guinness or something, but it's cool anyway. The real test is to see how it looks when it dries.
So Organichu you just think it's fake that was crafted with the intention of being popular, like a commercial or a boy band?
no, i can't really assume that. my guess is the author really loves the stuff, too. he's not reading these elements out of a style guide- he's probably making the comic he'd love if someone else made it for him. it's just very tightly treehousey. it has 0 appeal for me, as someone who doesn't smile at the never ending reference.
OK cool, I understand your beef now. Kinda like how there's plenty of people I know and like and share the same interest in who cannot-stand quinton tarintino.

It's not pandering if you're making a comic you would personally like.
That's how most things are created. People create things that they personally like and hope that others will like it too.
yes, it is
afaik the word pander doesn't specify that the 'panderer' wouldn't himself enjoy what's he's pandering. it's just about offering up, for indulgence, something silly and pitiful that you know people will eat up

Oh man, I just thought of something so awesomely creepy I'm gonna have to PM it to you instead of posting it in [chat].

If Quentin Tarantino was an interstellar dictator, that would be the correct spelling of his name.

I understand in the same way that you might enjoy a comic that was chock-full of MMA and gun references and was about killing Palestinians but I might not.
no, i don't think i'd enjoy that comic either (the stuff about palestinians aside). i think just about anything that chock full of overwhelming, unending head nods and name drops would make me groan, even if i liked the stuff. i'd be self-aware of how ridiculous it was and i don't think i could enjoy it in earnest.
Never quite got how pro-marijuana legalization people didn't think this kind (and subsequent nigh monopoly of pot by some combination of Big Tobacco or Big Pharma that will/would follow) of thing was inevitable.
Yeah, sure is something. Oakland is ahead of the curve on this stuff too. Check out measure Z. There's a dispensary that doesn't require a medical card, and it's pseudo-legit under the law. Fucking crazy man.

This is pretty ridiculous. I don't understand why this comic gets you so upset you have to trash it by using words like "pitiful". It's doubly ridiculous because you have interests that others don't understand and you get shit for it but here you are giving shit in kind.
Anyway, the sticking point is the intention of the creator. I just asked if you thought it was crafted with the intention of being popular and you said you couldn't assume that, but now you say that it was made knowing that people would eat it up, so what the hell are you talking about.
I think the creator likes these things and he made a comic about them. The comic is over-the-top and fun.

I don't know what context I'd use the word "pitiful" within.
I guess I pity Tom Cruise, assuming he really is a self-hating closet case.
Yessss. Been rolling with the medic so far. I likes. I likes the tesla cannon a lot. I ran into issues keeping people alive around the infestation level though. Not sure if I should rock the health gun or the packs (or, ugh, BOTH).
But the tesla cannon is salvation.
I loved the tesla cannon on my tech guy
I tried that cannon too, because I was anxious about any friendly fire damage (I did get 100/100 on a level 8-) go go team player).
Actually my favorite weapon was the chainsaw, but it seems impractical.

I'm assuming that features the vegan. I'm sure I will.

I'm all tired as fuck out now.
tesla gun +chainsaw is stupidly powerful if you have quick fingers
The feeling is mutual (The love part, not the terrible human being part)
He wishes so hard...

Maybe you could let me build a spiggot to direct your shower water into a holding tub?

Don't think I have the saw yet. Made it to... uh... level 15 maybe? I likes me the freeze grenades!
I have no idea what Stout is or why you're excited it's in shampoo.
yeah i know
but really i just wish vegan-ocity came with psychic powers because i would drop milk, cheese, and eggs in a heartbeat
Oh, you can pick up the chainsaw in one of the levels. I am only like level 8
stout? like the beer?
Ding ding ding ding! :^:
One day man, i'm gonna cross that line too far and ellie's gonna be done with me.
