EHm ok, but we can admit saying a person is essentially an emotionless robot because of their profession seems a little extreme no?

Yeah that was a bit.. much. All humans have an endocrine system and therefor have all these wonderful electrochemical induced hormone emotions.

 This is now a dog thread. Tell me how you get the dog in the third photo's ear fur to do that. Is it some kind of product? What are their names? Are they good dogs or bad dogs?

The westie in the back is Ada, and the lab puppy is Leon. Her fur is maybe just sleepy head hair. I normally cut her hair myself so it doesn't look like most westies I guess lol.
Leon is a bad boy, hes already ripped a lot of things apart. One time I went to plug something in and it exploded in my face and I was like wtf and its because he chewed the cable up. Still trying to get him to stop peeing in the house so he wears a pamper but hes getting better. He just finally learned to give me his paw and he knows how to sit, hes three months old
Ada is a good girl, very quiet and independent. They both like to look out the window, its funny to watch them look down and I wonder what they are thinking about seeing tiny dots moving. They both love attention and we get stopped every block from people wanting to pet them and Leon jumps on everyone so I have to tell them he jumps and they say "thats ok" but then they get surprised that he actually does it. Just the other day we saw julianne moore randomly in the neighborhood outside my bldg and she pet them and he jumped on her too.

I mean you just kinda proved it by using that same derogatory term "incel". Its a short epitaph for someone who is involuntary celibate, as in they want to have sex but do not have the opportunity. Even old grandmas are using males lack of access to sex as an insult. There are no "involuntary celibates."
There are misogynists who think they should have free unlimited access to what they are unwilling to either look for or pay for.
The vast majority of self described "incels" would far rather post on the manosphere interwebs than even search dating sites, much less escorts. Or, for that mater, even think of dating a fat chick.
A kinder way to put this is that they have been conditioned to want what they have been conditioned to believe they cannot have. Were it not for the amplifying effects of the interwebs and easy access to firearms this would regrettable but not deadly.

Women who sleep with lots of men, suffer for the rest of their lives for doing so. I have slept with many men, and women too. I have regretted certain instances* yes, but suffer? I don't understand the why of suffer. In general? Oh **** no regrets and many fond memories.
Quote: Saevel explained it well enough. I must have missed that part.
*But not for 'the rest of my life.'

All dogs are good dogs.

I'm pretty sure just about every guy is conditioned to think that paying for sex = being even more of a loser than staying a virgin.
There's still a great deal of shame attached to it, even though it's really commonplace.
Heck, I let Schutz from this site talk me into getting Deriheru when I went to Japan in 2016 (I don't think she really had to twist my arm, though. But I still insist I hadn't thought of doing that until it was suggested!).
As for the assertion that there are no, "involuntary celibates" I can't find the reference at the moment, but some years ago I remember reading that something like 25% of all men never experience sex, sex being any up close and personal, hands on affair.
However you want to slice it, phrase it, or talk about it, one fact remains. Men have the short end of the stick when it comes to sex and relationships. Men are far more likely to die without those experiences, and even the ones that don't die without them still die with far less than women.
The pain that drives the violence doesn't come from nowhere, after all. It's not exactly as Saevel or Radial describe, but it's not just nonsense, either.

Yes, lets use a misandrist epitaph to insult and denigrate people then deny it exists in the first place. Incel literally means INvoluntary CELibate, it was used as a term to describe men who were so low quality they couldn't get any women to sleep with them. It's the male version of "*** shaming" and used by misandrists to attack male sexuality.

Proposed to my GF on Christmas night. She said yes! I guess I'm engaged now. So now she's my fiancée. Congrats!
Celebrate this by playing a SL1, perma-death Souls game (of your choosing) run I had enough of RL1 back in the spring!
(also I would not be able to do a perma death run that'd drive me up the wall)
YouTube Video Placeholder Nice. I didn't like Elden Ring enough to consider doing a challenge run (I did SL1 DS3 run instead).
I surely miss talking about the new FromSoft game on here like we did when Bloodborne and DS3 were released.
Anyways, I was afraid my suggestion would sound a little bit tasteless (I remembered when my friend got engaged and he passed by my house to borrow a movie from me to watch it on his date night. The movie was Saw). Backreading the last few pages made me feel much better about my dumb joke.

The movie was Saw). Backreading the last few pages made me feel much better about my dumb joke. I did about 5 playthroughs of Elden Ring.
First playthrough blind.
Second and third playthroughs to platinum.
Fourth playthrough at RL1, and I used summons if I felt I needed them, which was mostly the latter half of the game (Initially it was actually an attempt at a Horseless/Melinaless playthrough, so I couldn't summon at all, but Morgott's sealing spells eventually couldn't be circumvented in the way I wanted, so I had to relent and get the horse/strike the bargain).
Fifth playthrough was for pure fun involving an incantation(miracle) build. God, it was so dang fun. I cheesed the Black Blade Kindred gargoyle outside of Gurranq's church, for the Black Gargoyle sword with a really good FP move and Faith scaling. Then the spell types for Incantations are so vast and varied, there's a spell for every occasion!
A shame you didn't enjoy it. You're not alone though, some of my other friends did not enjoy Elden Ring. Most of them cite the open world aspect not meshing well with Souls game. I think it meshes perfectly myself, but I can understand the exhaustion since so many games are open world nowadays.
My favorite part about it was its NPCs. I love the way Fromsoft does characters, even if their quest progression is about as obfuscated as a rose by a riverbed under a willow tree on a foggy evening. Millicent, Blackguard Big Boggart, and Blaidd are gonna stick with my memory for a long time.

The more GT I watch the more themes I see they still ran with in Super.
Different balls.
The dark balls would destroy earth, just like Beerus
17 is OP
Repeat bad guys.
New form(s).
Pretty much ignoring ssj3
Space exploration
4(or5) saiyjins transferring power to one
Goku Black is the same theme as bebi
(Serious) over use of the balls
The last arc with evil dragons is a universal threat just like the tournament of power.
Even ultrainstinct
The only thing making GT noncanon is the tail. Everything else is kinda retconned to Super.
By Draylo 2022-12-30 20:51:15
I still havent begun super, even tho I kept up with most of it story wise. The art direction is horrid... i cant stand it. I hate how they changed Friezas voice actor, I dont like how dumb they made Goku or how "anime"esque it is. I know its a JP anime, but they really didnt do too much of that lame cutesy crap, now they do. GT was honestly good in terms of story if you ask me, it had very interesting themes but they kinda failed putting it all together. SSJ4 is a way better form than blue anyways, can tell most of the fans even prefer it because when SHF made figures of SSJ4 vegeta and goku they sold out instantly, but the blue forms nobody cared about.

Gt ends up ok that first arc is really irritating, it's too much og dragonball
Goku is also a super dipshit in GT as much as Super, that's another thing that's the same.
They repeat animation ALOT too in GT. The same frames will repeat like 5 times.
By Draylo 2022-12-30 21:10:04
Yep I remember that, the same Ki based attack frame was repeated -tons of time lol. I guess I excused it for GT because he was a kid for it, and I did like dragonball so I get where they were going with trying to replicate that feel for the first saga.

Goku being an idiot really worked well in DBZ Abridged. Him being an idiot in the actual show is not quite as endearing.

Goku being an idiot really worked well in DBZ Abridged. Him being an idiot in the actual show is not quite as endearing. It is, however, more in line with how Goku is in the original JP. Localization really beefed up his lines and thoughts to be more like a traditional western hero, rather than the selfish eastern hero that he is.
The greatest example of this difference I can think of is when Goku spares Vegeta in the Saiyan Saga. In English he goes through this expository thing talking about Vegeta learning compassion and mercy and comparing him to Piccolo.
In the original Japanese? "Don't kill him, it'd be such a waste. I'd like to fight him again, someday. Fighting him was the greatest thrill of my life. I know it's not the right to let him live, but humor me. Forgive me."
Like, I mean, sure... dumb Goku in Super is way over played, but the character's original personality is much closer to DBZ Abridged which adds to the humor from it. This dunderhead that loves fighting, and can be talked into doing the right thing, most of the time.

Backlog thy backlog.. lol
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
