''Manly Tears", ''Dodger" (what does that even mean?) and the segment on when you're doing it make me think it's not entirely serious?

It can't be serious.

Why is Jewish +25 and Christianity is +5. That sounds a bit...discrimatory. They need to check their privilege
I gotta say...

A look at history should put the Jews a tad farther down. They are sadly the world's butt monkey.

Speaking of, isn't the 3DS slightly more powerful than the GameCube was? If so how come they couldn't just get the Ice Climbers back from there?
It actually isn't. That was a common misconception.

Although, it should also be noted that Smash Bros 4's engine is probably more taxing than Melee's engine.

It seems like it comes from that stereotypical place of...

''All Jewish are thrifty and successful people!"

and...

''The world is turning against Christianity slowly!"

If you ask me your privilege should be based on whether or not your favorite character made it into Smash Bros

Why is Sweden more price ledges than the UK?

Like how does that work?

Going to hell for this (amongst other reasons) but..

Would that make Ridley and K. Rool fans illegal immigrants?

Ridley would be more like the lowest scoring trait on the Privilege list (Transgendered) alongside Chrom, since they not only had some of the most crushing disconfirmations, but they also were the two rejected newcomers we got an explanation for from Sakurai.

K. Rool will be there too if he's truly out (I think he is, but the majority seem to think he still has a shot, so....)

And Takamaru was explained for his disclusion. But yeah, good point.

Donald Trump will be making idiotic quotes about K. Rool, Ridley, and Chrom in tomorrow's paper.

Just. You. Watch.

I'm above average privileged (white, male, straight). But I think the whole check your privilege thing is stupid and immature. Just because you belong to a certain group doesn't mean your incapable of empathy. I went to a 70% black school. One of my classmates got shot after graduation. I don't know what it's like to walk to the bus afraid, but I'm well aware of the vast inequality that exists in America. Some people aren't exposed to those kinds of experiences but it's not based on the color if your skin or who you fancy. I know "minorities" who grew up in a much more affluent house than I did and now they are the ones going on Facebook telling people to check their privilege. It's annoying.

Lol. I didn't even understand the thing and read it wrong and thought I was above average at first even though I was in the negative.

Can I get oppression points for being illiterate? :troll:
