For some reason, I thought you'd be disgusted with what they've done to your artwork...

God dammit, why do I have to have work right smack in the middle of all the action that went on in this thread and others? Would have wanted to see that thread but it's gone now...

I saved the HTML file. I just need to find a way to give it you. Wink


I would appretiate that, thank you.

Also, seems there's another thread there now... will probably be deleted though... I find it funny that they're quoting some of the things from other threads here. Such as the "My girlfriend hates anime what should I dos?" thread...

No, they're just doing it to make fun of the opener. It's what 4chan always does... In all honesty, I actually think it was pretty funny what they quoted. It does sound funny out of context, and I guess in context too...

No way, dude. I've been laughing nonstop for the past hour.

[edit] Ah, man. Now the second 4chan thread is gone, too. I didn't get a chance to save all the pictures...

Oh man, I don't check for a few days and all moe hell breaks loose! Anime hyper And Cloe officially WINS- I love it!! I meant mine to be sort of satirical too, cause I really don't like loli stuff, but Cloe gets straight to the point. Plus it's super cute. I'm sad I missed angry wierd 4chan responses, though the one that Za-Warudo posted is amazing. I heart ANN; I'm way too amused.

Damnit, I missed the 4chan posts, I wanted to see them!

The "Why not whore ourselves" one above is kinda funny, but a bit too scary for my tastes.

Cloe, can you send me the file ? editor A animenewsnetwork....

Hmm, I'm sure most people here are wondering what that's all about. It's a 4chan meme. And in nature, 4chan doesn't tell people unfamiliar with memes what they're all about... ruins the jokes. Thankfully, someone has made a list of most of them:

http://www.lurkmore.com/wiki/index.php?title=4chan (Warning - A few of the images here contain explicit material that some people might find offensive)

In specific, that meme comes from...

Quote:
From /a/, a caption from the lolikon doujinshi Papa Nankai Daikirai featuring a little girl, nicknamed "Grinbitch" saying "oh ho, why not whore ourselves?" with a bemused, condescending smile on her face. Evolved into other characters with similar facial expressions and captions with some form of "oh ho, why not _____ ourselves". Ironically, this phrase is actually a mistranslation of the original Japanese text.


Just to clear it up.

Everybody seems to be asking for this now... I have the link that Cloe gave to me of a mirror of the thread... I don't think she'd mind me posting it. Should be open to everybody any, since it was posted openly on the internet... But Cloe gets credit for this...

I wouldn't say ANN as a whole is anti-loli at all. But from what I've experienced, it has much more anti-lolis than any other anime site I've been to. We kind of bring it upon ourselves though. When you have a multiple 10-30 page threads with people arguing about the subject, going on for days, with people yelling out "YOU ARE A SICK!!!" every other chance they get, it really shouldn't come as a surprise to you to have people from here be called "anti-loli".

Ya, a massive amount of ANN poster are anti-loli, normally that's not a problem, but when most of them just yell at each other and others, then it's just pointless to have any topic about loli, and normally moe, because it usually turns into a loli hating thread.

ANN, as a site, is not pro or anti-loli, the members of the forum here make up their own minds and have their own opinions about what is and is not acceptable, the site doesn't decide that for you. That said, there are a number of anti-loli forum members but there's also a lot of pro-loli members and from what I've seen on those threads there's just as much yelling and arguing from the pro-loli as there is from anyone else.
