Cynicism

I am honestly surprised by South Park these last few episodes. After years of being too topical (or too late to be too topical), characters either dropping out of sight or being derailed, and so much fucking Cartman (to the point where he appeared in a commercial where he was not only in a scene he wasn't in, but also had very little screentime in the episode) it was nice to see all this old South Park stuff return. And to top it all off, they even talked about why Stan's dad was a huge buffoon who got so much screentime for a while there! But as much as I love this return to the old, pre-way-the-fuck-too-popular-for-its-own-good days and acknowledging Randy acting like a major jackass, there was something in that episode that was more important than all of that.

Lots and lots of poop. Cynicism.

My God, there's a metric fuckton of cynicism out there. It helped me spawn a 26 page thread, which is 98% me bitching about how shit everything is. Seeing all that poop everywhere was awesome Stan complain about how everything was shit hit pretty close to home for me. And it got me thinking about how much being an asshole who complains about everything is so incredibly prevelent. So much so that you've got places like TV Tropes and the Elder Scroll/Fallout Nexus going to the other, equally obnoxious extreme. I want to complain about this, but I'm too aware of the irony of doing that to actually do it!

But then, you see, I realized something. You see, there is treatment. There is a way to fight this. There is hope for ours souls.



Poop is funny.

Life's Beautiful Little Miracles

Some days, you might stuck in traffic and it's raining, but then the rain clears up and you'll see a double rainbow. And other days, you'll hear about the Ku Klux Klan protesting the Westboro Church at Arlington Cemetary.

And you can't help but smile and feel like everything's gonna be alright.

Children Don't Really Need Orgasms

Hey, look what I just found shortly after mentioning that Nexus admin defending a sexualized children mod?

Nice one, God!

BUDDAH IS A SCUMBAG SACK OF SHIT

No, no! Not that one! Good lord, not that one! He's cool! He's bros with Jesus! No, I mean the Fallout Nexus' Buddah, who's somehow an even worse and more fucked up administrator since TV Tropes' Fast Eddie. Not only does this asshole outright defend what is basically a softcore kiddie porn mod from legitimate criticism moral outrage (ain't linkin' that), there's this shit:

http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=39554

Here's what the modder seriously said:

"NOTE: You need to read this if you want to comment on my mod! If you don't pay attention and go by what I am saying, you won't be happy. I DO NOT tolerate any harsh criticism AT ALL. If you've got something mean to say, either keep it to yourself or alter the words to make it nice and include a smiley face or something... My previous experience of having people ridicule my mod was unpleasant and if it happens again, you won't have a happy life on the Nexus... I can guarantee..."

He's a little punk-ass motherfucker and he richly deserves to get his shit fucked up. Any other site would have the good sense to kick this little shit out.

And then here's what the ironically named "Buddah" said:

"Seems you want to dictate the terms of commenting on your mod, well I will do my best to keep the trolls at bay."

FUCKING. SERIOUSLY.

And then he locked the comments, even though the people who calling out this little shit were being pretty polite about it.

Y'know what? Someone should make a quick, simple mod...then act like a egotistical punk who's just asking for the internet hate machine to kick his ass! And to every person who calls you out on that shit, PM them at tell them the truth: That you're doing this to make Buddah look like the goddamn fool that he is. And I was going to say spring the truth on the fuckhead when he defends someone who should be banned for being an asshole, but I got an even better idea: Do the same thing again. And again and again. In fact, flood the goddamn place with a bunch of puppet accounts and have them all upload shitty little mods where you act like a massive fucking manchild to get Buddah to defend you from people who are justifiably outraged and make him look stupid.

Y'know, trolling!

Ever Get The Feeling People Actually Listen to You?

"Fun fact: Diabetus and I are not doing any more videos making of fun of bad LPers, or videos making fun of bad flashes, or even other longplays. This channel is now 100% devoted to Rise of the Dragon over and over."

Okay, I know I can't possibly be the only person who acted like a violent loon complained (seriously, I gave this Longplay MSTing crap a chance, it's painfully lame, knock that shit off), but it's fun to pretend.

-Tabris

P.S.- Rise of the Dragon was a great game, which I own on the Sega CD. That had nothing to do with me unsubscribing to Retsupurae. Really.

Loli Clown

So, there's someone out there called "Loli Clown". And knowing is half the battle.

...Oh, and Osama bin Laden is dead or something.
