Is that a rare Pepe? :troll:

But yeah, making Pepe a hate symbol is just stupid.
No, this is a rare Pepe.




. . .But yeah, I don't really agree with Pepe being made a hate symbol either.

The government is trying to make pepe a hate symbol

LOL

We live in stupid times

I've changed my avatar in support

#NotAllPepes
They are revolting against the meme frogs?

Quick, let's start a similar movement for Dat Boi.

Oh wait, Dat Bloke is dead. :troll:

In light of the revelation that Advance Wars: Days of Ruin is 117 years old, I have changed my avi to the main protagonist of the game that started gaming decades before gaming was a thing, Will.

Take that :4mario::4pacman::4gaw::4rob::4duckhunt:

Was browsing one of my favorite twitters and came across this funny screencap from Color Splash:
There was a problem fetching the tweet

Well I mean, when places like /pol/ and /r/the_donald spam Pepe as an alt right meme, it's no surprise he's viewed as a hate symbol.

I guess that's the disconnect then.

Most of us aren't willing enough to subject ourselves to deep politics even go to those places to know that, while it's the government's job to check places that talk about them while presumably not bothering with anything else.

I suppose someone should try to explain things more thoroughly to the government, but knowing the internet people are probably just going to end up digging the whole thing deeper because they can't communicate in anything but insults.

Which ones? :p
For starters, there's a funny NX comment like this one.

https://twitter.com/CyberHyperPhenx/status/782743334057934848

Then there's this gem I found when going deeper in your page. :p

https://twitter.com/CyberHyperPhenx/status/781650755182747648


Some of the reblogs there are also comedy gold like this one.

https://twitter.com/Fighters_Gen/status/781627141913993216

And this one is definitely another fave.

And I apologize on the behalf of the Shrek and Spongebob fans that will be disturbed by a certain ship.

Well this just popped up...


Game Theory: How A 2004 Game Copied A 2015 Game.
That's been around for a while methinks. There's also a huge **** storm that comes down when someone mentions Earthbound/Mother in the save sentence as Undertale. ALWAYS.

It's memes like this and "Shrek and Spongebob for Smash" that are why I can't take these characters seriously anymore.
Don't forget "Shrek is Love, Shrek is Life".

The one meme that arguably started the rampant brogre fandom we see today.

The Anti-Defamation League has an agenda. They'll try to drown our glorious Pepes. Good thing he's amphibious.
I just pray the internet stays free from any (further) regulation.

There ain't nothin' wrong with copying.
Ask any writer what to do to become one, and "read a lot" is going to be top answer.
The foundations of creativity are: copying, transforming, and combining.
It seems antithetical to the fanboi essence to acknowledge the merit of competing works.
And the other half 9/10ths is that Cave Story Undermeme copy thing is just a joek.

To add to that, Gumball is also ending.

I think we all should enjoy decent Cartoon Network while we still can.
I've seen this all over the place, but I have yet to find a source for this. Is it actually true?

Googling it, gives me nothing.

Y update, to make up for the lack of update yesterday:
Team:
Frojer
Jawseph
Galaxia
Fire Birb
Grover

I beat Grant and got through the route with the stones
Nothing else really happened
Also remember this post?
I'm probably not gonna customize my character... It never interested me, not even in X and Y.
This is probably because I played as a boy the whole time
Because I actually backtracked all the way to Lumiose city just to get more style points so that I can gain access to a certain hairstyle
I made my character look as tomboyish as I could, and I'm pretty happy with how that came out

This whole Pepe thing makes me realise how important it is having at least one person on your marketing or PR team that understands memes and internet culture.

I work at the head office of one of Australia's biggest retailers and I swear they are so clueless. I run a 'meme shop' (to complete with the 100s of chocolate shops) to lift team spirits and like one in 20 think it's the greatest and the rest just dont get it.

Sure, there's an 'age gap' argument, but like as if the internet is ageist. It can be so anonymous.

The first teaser for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is out!



Since it's just a teaser there isn't much to talk about. The music is great as usual and the atmosphere looks nice. We also get our first glimpse at Captain Salazar, who seems deadly and unhinged. Considering the crew said they want to make it a huge improvement over On Stranger Tides, I'm pretty excited.
 

Pazzo.

Day 3: Bad Moon Rising


Who knew jaunty chords and ominous lyrics mixed so well? "Hope you are quite prepared to die!"

A classic in film,
An overdone holiday,
Scored by "woodworker".

Great, more motivation for me to buy the game soon. >.>

Meanwhile, I'm having a laugh at some members' Twitter posts. Especially a big shoutout to Frostwraith Frostwraith and CyberHyperPhoenix CyberHyperPhoenix . :p
Why, thank you!

Not like my Twitter is anything too special, as it's mostly about video games and anime. I suppose my ramblings on human stupidity can be quite humorous. :p

And well, I haven't been too active here, but I still watch over this thread daily, so hi all.

School is incredibly dumb at times, I turned in a project mostly complete but then I get a zero for it. I don't even know why I try sometimes when it's obviously going to lead to faulure.(Especially since this project brought my grade down to an F because it's worth so many points.)

Especially art projects like these in classes that aren't art class and yet I get graded on my art.(In this case we had to paint masks.)

Sorry, just something I had to get off my chest because it upsets me so much.

So in light of all this NX discussion, I thought I'd start a new topic:

One of the reasons why the WiiU didn't sell very well was because of its name. If you were to rename the WiiU, what would you name it?

"Mostly complete".

As a teacher if I received a "mostly complete" project, it's not complete. Lol
