RKO_OrtonBoi 02/03/23 7:26:12 PM #1:	Go on any social media site and you will see people losing friends, family, and even getting divorces in some cases because the other person is buying Hogwarts Legacy and giving J.K. Rowling money. How does this make you feel? Personally, it's a sacrifice to be made to stand up for what is right and show how everyone is equal. I'd gladly disown family members if they buy the game. What about you people? --- Justice for all. Love for all. Peace for all. <cite>RKO_OrtonBoi posted [p:971308352] in Thousands ...

Damn_Underscore 02/03/23 7:35:51 PM #8:	Beveren_Rabbit posted... People should do the same to Rick and Morty and High On Life To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

Are we boycotting lord of the rings as a series now?

I dunno if that makes me racist or the people who pointed it out racist. It's a pretty well established antisemitic trope and considering that Rowling did stuff like Cho Chang's name it is obvious she was racially insensitive at best back when writing them. But considering a recent excerpt of her new book is floating around about her writing a Polish character, well. She's racist. --- tfw no big tiddy goth vampire gf who lactates blood - viewmaster_pi <cite>gunplagirl posted [p:971310324] in Thousands ...
