Well, I wasn't. I was speaking in specifics about this thread. The post of mine that you responded to was targeted specifically at people in this thread who - for some a-hole reason - think our observations are invalid. Not just that they don't agree with our opinion, but that somehow we are wrong to even have them. So, in future if you are going to burble on about irrelevant generalities then don't bother referencing a post of mine so that I don't have to waste my time responding.
And not sure why you made some comment about not wanting to wait decades for my reply since I was much faster in responding to you than vice-versa. But given the general uselessness of your posts in this thread, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. Last edited by Blood- on Wed May 08, 2013 4:59 pm; edited 1 time in total |

Yeah, I've seen some of his other stuff, too. I personally don't value visual consistency very much, and often like it when they change things up with the art from moment to moment, so I hope that the next episode brings a different visual take on Gargantia. |

If you were speaking in specifics about this thread, your original post to which I replied made no mention about it. You responded to a generalized comment about the internet social justice fad being annoying with an equally generalized comment. And I made a generalized comment about yours. As for the general uselessness of my posts in this thread.... "Amy's fermented thigh sweat"? |

Don't read too much into it. Every group needs a delta dog and Blood- often fills that purpose. |

You really are clueless. That comment about "internet social justice" wasn't a generalized comment. It was a specific slam against those of us in the thread who noted the cross-dressing stereotypes, among other things, as being offensive. Fine, the meaning was implied as opposed to explicit, but there was no mistaking the message behind it. I guess you are just too stupid to pick up on it. Shocker. Yeah and the Amy's fermented thigh sweat comment, while far from my best work, is still leaps and bounds more vivid than anything you'll ever write in the yawnfest that is your existence. |

Ironic how an episode that was supposed to be cheerful and lighthearted has made people spew hate at eachother. I really doubt this is the kind of "discussion" this forum was intended for.

Yeah, probably not, but it's also not particularly rare, either. And ANN moderation is pretty good. I can only imagine what a "anything goes" site must be like.

ANN's forums are pretty tame. I'm really surprised on how long this discussion has lasted.
I'm usually not easily offended, but even I found the cross-dressing scene to be quite uncomfortable to watch due to the stereotype that was being portrayed. |

It surprises me how easily offended people get in general. Man, I cant imagine what real life does to people.
Overall, it was probably the worst episode so far though. Nothing really happened in terms of story or character development. |

Wow.
Anyway, I agree with Tuor_of_Gonolin when he wrote...
I obviously did an even worse job, but at least I didn't attack anyone personally. |

But of course before stopping you couldn't resist one last putrid self-righteous whine, could you?
Generally, when someone says they are going to stop carrying on a certain line of conversation, they should just stop. Not add in a little tidbit that is absolutely guaranteed to keep fanning the flames.

My thoughts exactly. I was actually quite curious what was going to happen when those guys showed up. I thought Ledo would have no clue about what was going on (and be completely innocent regarding existing stereotypes) and the show could take advantage of that and have him meet and approach them in a completely open, innocent, and his usual curious manner, therefore playing with the stereotypes and have us reflect on our own expectations and biased trains of thoughts. That could have been fun and entertaining as well, and a lot more so than the breaking out of character just for the laughs that happened instead. Seemed like a lost opportunity and rather sad to me. |

I hope we have more awesome visuals that everyone hates!
