    I don't fit that description... I've got a tan

    Man I told you to use some duct tape on that hole in your roof

    I've got to go to the store to get the tape, maybe I'll get my parents to bring me some the next time they do a wellness check.

    not really. maybe its more about the fact that 99% of people here care more about their toy commercials and other bullshit than what's happening in the world right now, just a GUESS.

    People talking about games and so on, on a forum on a web-comic about games and so on

    A travesty. Marx must be spinning like a top

    to be fair to the corpulent deathly pale shitbeards, there's a bit of selection bias when determining the level of discourse about world politics in a game forum

    if you can fix shit, then by all means you should care about it more than your recent statuette purchases. my sphere of influence, on the other hand, is about twenty feet.

    pretty much
    if you want serious debate and discussion about what's going on, this isn't exactly the best place for that.

    this is the screw around and talk about random bullshit corner of the internet.

    Part of why I don't actively participate in discussions in politics threads and other serious topics is because all of my opinions can be summed up more eloquently by other forumers. I'm horrible at communicating my points and ideas. So, I talk about robots.

    I've read threads in D&D and it just seems like two biased sides TL;DR'n the hell out of each other.

    This place has all the eloquently crazy, but satisfyingly unbiased folk you'd rather talk to, anyways.
