Posers. Posers everywhere.

They show up to your community & fucking ruin it.

And when you call them posers, tourists or fake fans, people always say "wHy aRe wE gAtEKeEpInG x ?"

Real fans dont need to worry about gatekeeping. If ur constantly being gatekept then stop being a fucking poser.

Im an original 2000s goth & to see the state of whats happened to our culture is cringe. And we arent allowed to call these fake people who are basically a parody of goth out? Fuck off

Edit: the horror genre is not a get out jail free card to excuse or do shitty things to people

Summary: To those who aren’t aware this James A. Janisse he is one of the owners of YT channel deadmeat with his co host/wife Chelsea Rebecca, and editor (game kill count host) zoran gvojic they review horror movies and tv shows counting the kills in each media called the kill count, they don’t just review movies they talk about how it was made, what impact it had on society and on the people who made it.
In Short, their horror movie enthusiasts.

So why did this images exist because 5 years ago on the second channel He made a video talking about he will never review the jeepers creepers franchise until the creator (Victor Salva) is a dead because back in 1988 he raped a 12-year-old boy and filmed it, so a convinced child rapist.

He also brings up any time a film director or actor/actress does something shitty in the film or to their actors or people working on the film and calls it out, and he’s a pretty sex positive person and likes fan service but will call out when an actor/actress is not comfortable with that fan service but the director put it in anyway. Or random slurs, bigoted views and outdated (at the time) social norms that can be extremely harmful to groups of people.

But for some reason people on Twitter, believe because this genre is horror. Anything should go because well it’s horror bad things happen it doesn’t matter if the stuff in the movie is fake the actual slurs and bad things happening to the people working on the film are real, but because it’s horror none of that matters and that’s why this image exist.

And his most recent controversy, one of his friends and person who works with him on the channel was recently kidnapped by ice (and yes, I’m not sugar coating it she was kidnapped just like a lot of American citizens are being kidnapped by ice) and he like any normal person was pretty upset by it and told everybody the news, so yeah I think people who have a problem with him are clowns because he really does nothing for entertaining people.

General 4trans and all it's adjacent spaces

As someone that used to frequent these sorts of spaces in highschool more than half a decade ago, I've grown to absolutely despise what they've done to the trans community. It's created a subsection of the community dedicated to wallowing in their own misery and tearing down others who are actually happy or getting help via therapy.

I'm convinced that these spaces like /TTTT/ or r/countttt only ever promote a mentality of being miserable for the sake of being miserable because they refuse to actually help themselves and fall into a constant cycle of comparison to unrealistic beauty standards.

Not to mention all of the bullshit phrases and words that got made up from these communities. Stuff like Passoid, Ogrehon and all that crap. It's beyond irritating and just plain juvenile imo

Oh god I can hear the fans getting their torches and pitchforks, but I don’t care.

1.) The fandom is just…..I dunno how to describe it, they become a pack of savage wolves that can’t take the slightest bit of criticism and god forbid your new to the game and gender Kris off the bat (insert Ralsei crucified meme)

2.) The gameplay is subpar and enemies are repetitive. And the choices don’t really make sense to me since—at least from what I’ve heard—Toby Fox is only going to make one ending for the game which makes me wonder why the weird route exists which fans originally thought meant that Kris raped Noelle?

3.) Where the hell is Papyrus? “Oh he’s the roaring knight” no the fuck he isn’t, no where have I seen it even be confirmed he’s the roaring knight and papyrus is the best character from Undertale.

4.) The music is nowhere near as good as Undertale, I only remember like two songs and their fucking parodies “Potential Man” and “Driving in my car”.

5.) You wanna know why Undertale is better than Deltarune? It’s because it’s finished.

6.) Players support slavery because it’s confirmed that you are inhabiting Kris against their will (joking, lol, but still you are all terrible people)

7.) Toriel didn’t call me her little pogchamp, what the hell?

8.) This game came out when I was in the seventh grade and now I’m twenty years old, what the fuck Toby? How come it’s not finished?!?!

Edit: okay, you guys said it enough. The asgore parody is a Deltarune ost parody, which means Deltarune only has ONE good song.

I hate media where the populace or characters get addicted to stuff like phones or general crap, and the work blames them solely for getting hooked, no mention is made of corpirations' targeted ads that made you buy it in the first place.

It feels like both victim blaming at this point so corpirations that own said works don't have to take any accountability, "we're not the ones who put the phone in your hand after we demanded you put it there!".

Thing People constantly censoring words for no reason

Post image

When did it become a trend to censor literally every single word that is referencing something bad? This genuinely reminds me of Orwellian Newspeak, just spell out your words, it's not taboo to say them.

A few that I see all the time: kill = unalive, rape = grape/grape emoji, shooting/shot = pew pew/ gun emoji

But this image was my last straw: ⭐🪽 to censor starving, seriously?

Yes some words aren't pleasant, but I feel that using this censored nonsense is just making serious conversations/situations look like a joke, the worst one that I saw a while back was: "The 🍇of Nanking", like just no, those people weren't "graped" or "🍇", they were raped. It's not pleasant a word sure, but it's reality.

This quite frankly is a show that doesn't deserve to exist. It doesn't rerally bring anything interesting or original to the table, like this is the 2nd Glitch show besides Meta Runners thats super focused on video games. Despite being a show about video games its so bare bones and it feels like creator has never ever touched one before. Levels, coins, and other stuff wow!!! This isn't interesting

This show also expects us to think that Panic attacks are a great way to show trauma and convey deep writing. No, Panic attacks are greatly overused nowadays in Indie media. There are way better ways to convey trauma and show deep writing. Panic attacks can be good for writing but they are so overused nowadays.

The characters also suck ass. Kit is such a boring main character, like she is not interesting to talk about writing wise or character wise. Every other character is also kinda mid too and they are not interesting. People only care about these characters cause most of them are hot.

That's everything I have to say

Having the few crossovers was neat at first, but once they start relying on these as selling points and the crossovers start to dilute the originality, that's when the novelty disappears. This is part of why I quit fortnite. Not helping sonics case is that the extra characters have yet to gain voices(that includes the Sega characters).

EDIT: the $70 launch and the DLC where presumably to cover funds for the game, which they just blew on the final fantasy 7 licensing

The messed up proportions... why hands and feet so damn small comapred to his big ass head.

The weirdly drawn mouth, it looks like it's placed on top of the face instead of being an actual part of it.

The ugly pair of eyebrows and the eyelashes. Bro if you're gonna take artistic freedom to stylize a baby could you at least make it look organic? My sight would appreciate that attempt.

Finally, why that little nose bubble like he's sick or something. It looks dumb and hell and somehow it makes him look kinda annoying.

The reward to the ugliest baby ever drawn goes to this one, definitely. Not even "Queen never cry" baby is THAT ridiculous compared to this one, and that's a pretty impressive take indeed.

everything has to be ironic, everything HAS to be corny, jokes/comic relief moments HAVE to happen in an unorganic way, nobody is just allowed to talk like real people in certain pieces of media anymore, everybody needs to act like a quirk chungus and its pissing me off

look, if you like this type of writing, all power to you, some writers just do it on purpose anyways, but i just genuinely miss when shows were able to be amusing or have moments of levity, but not talk down to their audience, i was washing the dishes while replaying a rerun of an old Justice League episode, and i was genuinely surprised at how natural all the dialogue felt, it had just the right amount of seriousness and funny moments where nothing felt forced, and i wish writers nowadays knew how to do that

nowadays it feels like people are afraid to treat their audience like mature people, and no matter how serious the situation is in the story, they have to soften the blow because they're afraid of being too harsh on the writing or being a little bold for once, this problem is especially high with indie content on the internet since a good chunk of the people making them grew up on "so random" humor or tumblr, and don't realise that this type of writing isn't the only one to exist ever

again, if you wanna write like this or enjoy this type of writing, its fine, i just hate it

Post image
243 Upvotes

(Spoilers for Season 3 of Helluva Boss ig, but I doubt anyone in this sub actually cares lmao)

Blitz did not deserve everything he went through during the first three episodes of this season. Yes, he is a very bad person who's done very bad things to other people as a way to cope with trauma, low self-esteem, and fear of commitment. He's also very misogynistic, self-centered, and lacks the communication skills needed to maintain healthy bonds with other people. HOWEVER, that dosen't mean that he deserved to get disrespected to the extent that Stolas did to him in the third episode of Season 3.

Like, put yourself in Blitz's shoes for a minute. Breaking and entering is a crime and generally a bad thing to do no matter the situation, but he needed to do so in order to start off his business and feed both his DAUGHTER and BEST FRIENDS. In order to continue to ensure that they all don't end up on the street, he has to basically be in this transactional relationship with someone who looks and talks down on him for most of the time they knew each other. Then, after said person loses his power because of his "love" for you, you finally start to open your heart after years of struggling with trust issues...only for that person to then basically sleep with other people after you gave up YOUR COUCH for them alongside giving them a job, food, and clothing!

"B-but Blitz basically did that to other people, so he's just getting what he deser-" Two wrongs does not make a right people, especially when you consider the fact that Blitz was slowly starting to change as a person and rekindle his relationships with the people he cares about. Even though he still has a lot to work on, Blitz was still at least attempting to change and grow past his trauma. At least he didn't let any of it get in the way of his ADULT RESPONSIBILITIES like being a dad or a boss running a small business.

I'm just so pissed right now guys. I used to love this show to death, but now I'm way too pissed off with where Vivziepop and the other people handling the writing for this show are taking the story. Also, I forgot to mention that I hate Loona for going behind the back of the only person who bothered to give her a home by suggesting a hookup app to the literal dude she knew he was obsessed with! Like, I'm done with this shit man...

Web Fiction I hate how people hate on TCOAAL for it being incest. It's for its shock value the game doesn't defend it or anything. There are cannibalism, homicide, satanism and incest. It is supposed to be gross you should not be idolising the game.

Post image
240 Upvotes

Their argument is simple, incest is wrong why would there be such gross topic as incest while the game contains cannibalism, homicide, satanism etc.

That is like saying I hate Brutal DeathMetal for the it's gore aspect while it's only difference between Death Metal is it being brutal. They don't respect or support murder or anything that is called shock value.

But that is not the case, they only hate it because it's incest. JUST INCEST. YOU EAT YOUR OWN MOTHER. THE WOMAN WHO GAVE BIRTH TO YOU. You don't even murder her humanly. You make a ritual and let a demom eat her soul. I of course don't support neither incest nor cannibalism but that all the game is. I like 6'2 goth women. It is supposed to be gross and if get grossed out by a game that is made to gross you out, it is not something that you should be hating for.

btw fandom is trash they are actual incest but that is another thing.

Many posts on those subs are either bigotry disguised as memes or memes taken straight out of 2017 Facebook. Not to mention that they are filled to the brim with either bots or some of the most edgy/bigoted people i've ever come across, and when someone tries to call them out on their bigotry, they pull out the ""excuse"" of "it's just a meme" or they straight up double down.

There's also the fact that these are probably the only places on the internet that still unironically use the word "Normie".

The only good things i see on those subs are the Curis (they're so peak i love them so much) and the stupid but harmless ironic "Momos".

This is the same shit as the "Vigo mortensen broke his toes" and the "Willem dafoe played 3 versions of the scene to confuse the viewer about wether or not the detective knew Patrick was the killer" facts.

You hear them over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

1 everyone knows them already.

2 they are not fun to hear about anymore.
